After Yuai and Nao went out, they went straight to the ceremonial hall. Female mermaids came here one after another. Although the banquet was proposed by Michelle, the Queen asked Fana, the Princess of Poznan, to host it, so it was held in the ceremonial hall.
Although it was a female banquet, most of the people who came were young female mermaids, and Nao's mother did not come.
The ceremonial temple in Poznan is much more magnificent than that in Serendipity. Yuai has no intention of belittling the ceremonial temple of his own race, but theirs is indeed more magnificent.
Looking at the crystal decorations all over the hall, the murals are lifelike, and the layout is diverse and grand, covering up all the smell of wood. It is a completely magnificent palace.
Nao and Youai arrived not too late. Many females came up to greet Nao when they saw her. Only then did Youai realize that Nao was from the guard team.
Her ability level is level four, which is considered lower-middle in the guard team, but she is popular and gets along well with everyone. She is also an optimistic and cheerful girl, and everyone likes her.
Nao's return must have spread among the tribe, because Yuai saw that no one was surprised by Nao's appearance, but came to greet them enthusiastically.
Anyone who came to say hello to Nao would ask You Ai next to her, and she would also greet them with a faint smile. Seeing that she was not a talkative person, everyone simply greeted her and left without asking any more questions.
"Nao, you're quite popular!" Most people should be here by now, but no females have come forward to greet them. Yu Ai looked at Nao and teased, "It's a pity they're all females, otherwise I could see which male has a special liking for you."
Nao glared at her and said with a pout, "What male can compare to your Mai Fei?"
"I advise you not to use McPhee as a standard, otherwise you will definitely be alone." You Ai joked seriously.
"Yes, yes, your Mai Fei is number one, so please don't show off your affection in front of me all the time. I'm afraid I'll become completely distorted by jealousy!"
Nao pretended to give a warning expression, and the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
Hearing a commotion at the door, Yu Ai looked over, guessing the protagonist had arrived. Sure enough, Fana and Michelle came in, chatting and laughing.
Michelle glanced into the ceremonial hall, and her eyes lingered for a moment in the direction of Youai and Nao.
Fana first came to the stage to greet everyone and explained that the holding of this banquet was proposed by Princess Nefertari, Her Highness Michelle. Next, she was asked to explain to everyone the significance and process of the banquet.
After Fana finished speaking, there was a burst of applause and cheers from the audience, and You Ai also applauded. Fana raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet and invited Michelle to come on stage.
When Michelle came on stage, everyone applauded enthusiastically. She smiled appropriately and nodded to the audience. Everyone gradually stopped applauding and listened quietly.
I didn't feel anything when I heard Michelle speak at first, but as soon as she spoke, the difference in pitch between her voice and Fana's was immediately apparent.
If Fana's voice could be heard throughout the ceremonial hall, then Michelle's voice was as if it was right next to your ear, but it didn't feel harsh to your ears. It felt like a spring breeze, comfortable and pleasant.
Yu Ai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Nefertari is worthy of being known for her beautiful voice!
Michelle's voice was like a spring breeze and was intoxicating, but the content made You Ai frown slightly.
"Females are unique and the most perfect existence in the world!"
"Females are the most noble, and it is inevitable that they have the right to absolute rule!"
"Wherever females are, no male can be superior to them. All males must be absolutely subservient to females!"
"Females have their own reproductive rights, and no male partner may interfere. We must live for ourselves!"
Michelle continued to talk, and the ceremony hall was very quiet, with only one voice.
It is difficult for Yuai to agree with all of Michelle's female absolutism. In the mermaid race where females are the sovereign, it is impossible to demand equality between males and females, but Yuai also disagrees with "female absolutism".
What she accepts is the concept of equality between men and women, and equality of all beings!
Yu Ai was not interested in the content of Michelle's speech. Fortunately, Michelle did not continue speaking. After a brief closing speech, there was another round of wild applause from the audience. It seemed that Michelle's beautiful voice and witty words were very effective in brainwashing.
Everyone around was cheering and applauding. Although You Ai didn't quite agree, he couldn't help but clap his hands twice.
Michelle came down from the stage, talked with Fana for a while, and then walked towards Youai and Nao with a purpose.
Why do I say that? Because Yuai intentionally took Nao, who was unaware of the situation, and moved to another place, but she was caught up by Michelle after only half a circle.
"Hello!" Michelle came over and greeted them.
"Hello, Michelle." Nao responded cheerfully.
You Ai smiled and nodded, saying without any negative emotion: "Hello."
Michelle smiled at them and said, "How was it? What I just said was okay."
"Very good, I love your voice so much." Nao was about to turn into a little fan girl, and her hand that was holding You Ai was shaking a little, making You Ai laugh and cry.
"I agree," Youai said. "You have a very nice voice."
Michelle smiled, a very proper smile, and said, "I would rather hear you praise what I said."
You Ai smiled but didn't say anything. Nao continued to say flatteringly, "Very good, you spoke very well!"
Michelle smiled and said thank you, but her eyes were more focused on You Ai, which made You Ai very uncomfortable and she always felt something was wrong.
The party was already halfway through, and Michelle had spent most of her time with Yuai and Nao, chatting about random things. Occasionally, other females would come over to talk, and Michelle responded appropriately.
While another female was looking for Michelle, Yuai took Nao and slipped away.
"Yuai?"
Nao didn't know why Youai was so anxious to leave. She really enjoyed spending time with Michelle, whether talking or listening to her talk to others. Michelle's voice was magical, and she couldn't help but want to hear it again, want to hear it more!
Yu Ai glanced at the distance between her and Michelle. It was far enough. She said, "Thor should be looking for it. I have to go back first."
"Okay, let's go." Although Nao still wanted to hear Michelle's voice again, they had been out for quite a while, and Thor was about to find his mother.
It was heartbreaking to see little Thor crying so aggrieved. It would be better to go back early and not let him wait.
Yu Ai and Nao went to the door. Fana had already gone to the stage. The guard at the door did not let Nao and the others go out. Nao also pulled Yu Ai to stop. After all, Her Royal Highness the Princess was going to speak, and leaving directly would be considered disrespectful.
