Pete and Kanna looked at the grand scene in front of them in confusion, unable to believe their eyes.
This was a welcoming ceremony of royal standards for the Dawn Empire. Pate was puzzled. He was just a small earl. How could he have deserved such great attention from the empire?
Indeed, a small earl would not be taken so seriously, but their son is very capable.
Leo Merlin!
As the secretary of the City Committee of Arcane City, he controls many affairs of Arcane City. He is also the president of the Student Union of the Arcane Academy and has extraordinary influence in the academy. He is also the president of the new chamber of commerce, Merlin Chamber of Commerce, and his business empire is constantly expanding. He is also the representative of the Arcane Academy on the Supreme Council of the Aize Federation. It is said that he has the support of a demigod behind him, and his position is extremely important.
Just as everyone was surprised, the King and Queen of the Dawn Empire slowly appeared with the First and Second Princes of the Dawn Empire.
The King of the Dawn Empire was tall and straight, wearing a gorgeous golden robe that dragged on the ground. The robe was embroidered with delicate golden patterns, and it shone with noble light under the sunlight. He wore a crown inlaid with countless gems, each of which radiated brilliant light, demonstrating the royal majesty and power.
The king has a resolute face and deep, sharp eyes, as if he can see through everything. The traces of time left on his face have added a bit of maturity and stability.
The Queen of the Dawn Empire wore a lavender long dress. The hem of the skirt was as light and flowing as clouds, and it was embroidered with delicate silver patterns. It trembled slightly with her steps, like a dream.
She wore a small silver crown on her head, which complemented her gentle face.
The queen's eyes are gentle and kind, and there is always a faint smile on the corners of her mouth, giving people a warm and amiable feeling.
Her long golden hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, exuding a charming luster, making her look more noble and elegant.
The eldest prince and the second prince followed behind the king and queen. The eldest prince inherited the king's heroic spirit. He has a strong figure, confidence and courage in his eyes. He is dressed in a dark blue suit, showing his calmness and grandeur.
The second prince was more elegant, with a handsome face, and a white robe that highlighted his graceful demeanor.
"Father, Mother!" As soon as Arthur saw his parents, his eyes lit up with surprise and he ran over excitedly like a child.
The King of the Dawn Empire, Orinth Pandragon opened his broad and powerful arms, laughed heartily, and hugged his son tightly. That laughter seemed to be able to dispel all the haze in the world, demonstrating the king's heroism and kindness.
Queen Meredith Rudeus cast her eyes gently towards Merlin and the others, her lips slightly raised, revealing a kind smile, and said softly, "Welcome home, Count and Countess Leo."
Then, her eyes fell on Merlin, who was at the front of the team. Her eyes were full of admiration, and she said with a smile: "Little Merlin, you haven't changed much from before. You are still as beautiful as ever."
Her voice is like the chirping of a nightingale, elegant and beautiful.
Merlin was deeply impressed by this beautiful, generous, dignified and elegant queen in his memory. He quickly performed a standard noble salute and said sincerely: "Your Majesty is as beautiful as ever. Time seems to have been particularly kind to you and has not left any traces on you."
At this point, he smiled and continued in a slightly helpless tone: "I just hope that Her Majesty the Queen will not always call me beautiful and pretty. Wouldn't it be better to describe me as handsome and pretty?"
Queen Meredith Rudeus smiled and said, "But, little Merlin, you are very beautiful."
At this moment, Angelica ran out from the team like a happy little bird, threw herself into Queen Meredith's arms, and said coquettishly: "Aunt! I missed you so much!"
Queen Meredith rubbed Angelica's head lovingly, her eyes full of love, and said gently: "You have grown a lot taller. It seems that you eat well and are not picky about food, right?"
"aunt"? Merlin was slightly surprised. He never expected that the Queen of the Dawn Empire and Angelica had such a relationship.
But if you think about it carefully, the status and position of people who can hang out with you are naturally not too bad.
Angelica raised her head from the Queen's arms and began to introduce her good friends with great interest: "Aunt, this is Belinda, the Saint of the Sea Temple, this is Carlisle, the High Elf of the Church of Nature, and Conan, the son of Baron Famion, and my classmate Ed."
In addition to Ed and Conan, Belinda and Carlisle's identities are indeed enough to attract the attention of King Orinth and Queen Meredith.
The king and the queen looked at Belinda with admiration in their eyes, and praised Belinda for her fascinating charm. They looked at Carlisle again and praised him for his handsomeness and outstanding temperament.
King Orinth looked at Conan and said with emotion: "Baron Famion really raised a good son."
Then his eyes fell on Ed, and he smiled and said, "What a handsome young man, he is very talented and will become a great man in the future."
Arthur was not idle either. He walked quickly towards his eldest brother Rama Pendragon and his second brother Andorra Pendragon and greeted them warmly. There was a strong family affection between the brothers.
Merlin, together with his parents, solemnly saluted the King.
King Orinth looked at Merlin with admiration in his eyes and praised him, "At such a young age, he has become the president of the student union of the Arcane Academy, and is also a federal senator, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and the controller of the Arcane City. It's really amazing! He is worthy of being the bloodline of the God of War family. Like father, like son!"
As he spoke, he looked at Pete and continued, "Pete, you gave birth to a good son."
Upon hearing the King's praise, Pate straightened his back and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment."
Due to Merlin's current achievements and multiple prominent identities, the emperor of the Dawn Empire did not just regard him as an ordinary subject of his empire, but put him on an equal footing for dialogue.
After all, Merlin's brilliance is too dazzling. The Dawn Empire knows that it is impossible to restrict such a person, and the only wise thing to do is to make friends with him.
Merlin thanked the King respectfully, then turned around and introduced his companions behind him.
Although Stacy is a half-elf, she is from the royal family of Isabella and is a real princess.
Yuna also has a prominent background. She is the daughter of the prince of the Star Empire and a noble princess.
As for Scarlett, she is the granddaughter of a demigod, a descendant of a god who can walk on the continent of Aize. Who dares to ignore her? She has to be treated with the highest standards wherever she goes. Only Merlin dares to use her like a beast of burden.
