The Elven King sighed as he watched her daughter hug her Grand Disciple in a tight embrace.

He wanted to talk to Hereswith, but seeing the two Necromancers mourning, he knew that this wasn't the right time.

The Dragon King and the Steward of the Crystal Palace hovered in the air, not far from the Elf King.

A few other Supremes, who owed Hereswith a debt in the past, were also there and simply observed the beautiful Elf from afar.

No one dared to make a move to console her and the Half-Elf, whose face was buried in her chest.

The two members of Memento Mori observed the two from afar and acted as their guards.

After destroying the Divine City, the members of the Divine Army no longer pursued Lux and Hereswith in fear that the other Supremes would join the two members of Memento Mori in fighting them to the death.

They already lost their Main Headquarters, dozens of Saints, and thousands of Rankers. Any move that would add more to the death count would be foolish, especially now that they realized that there were many powerful factions who would choose to side with Hereswith and prevent them from harming her.

Valerie was also in tears when she saw how heartbroken Lux was. If possible, she wanted nothing more than to hold him in her embrace, but she knew that now was not the time and place to do that.

Aur felt the same as Valerie. He had known how much Lux cared for his Master, proved by how much he had done and how he dared to come to the Divine Empire in order to save him.

He couldn't even imagine how much effort it took for Lux to raise his rank in a short period of time.

The Dragon Prince was also very surprised that Lux was able to fight toe to toe with anyone below the Supreme Rank. The red-headed Half-Elf was certainly one of a handful of individuals who were capable of such a feat.

It was not only Aur who was impressed by the Half-Elf's performance.

The other Supremes, as well as the Saints, who were their subordinates, had seen how Lux fought against all odds. 

When they realized that he was the Heaven's Necromancer that the World Wide Announcement had mentioned, their interest in him grew even more.

Victor and Tristan were also there, observing the Half-Elf from afar.

'Good thing I didn't try to suppress him by force back then,' Victor thought as he wiped the imaginary beads of sweat that formed on his forehead.

Although Lux had shown a great deal of fighting prowess when he fought the Beast Tide that threatened the Xeno Kingdom, it seemed that he wasn't using all of his abilities.

If Victor were to really muscle his way in and force Lux to leave her daughter alone, the Half-Elf might have summoned his Calamity-Ranked Subordinates to slap Victor silly, making the latter lose face in front of his family.

Tristan, who was now aware that the person branded a Heretic by the Divine Army was actually his little sister's fiance, didn't know if he should laugh or cry.

With such a powerful brother-in-law, their Xeno Kingdom would definitely grow to become a powerful faction in Elysium in a few years.

However, Tristan also understood that the Half-Elf was a double-edged sword. 

Although Lux was strong, had an extremely beautiful Grandmaster, and seemed to have close relationships with powerful factions, it also meant that he had many enemies.

These enemies could easily wipe their kingdom from the face of Elysium. Having thought of this, Tristan felt that his future brother-in-law was a walking time bomb that could blow up in their faces at any given time.

"Father, what should we do?" Tristan asked with a conflicted look on his face.

"Let's ask your mom when we return home," Victor replied. "Whatever her decision will be, I will support it."

Tristan nodded because he found this answer fair. Their mother was the real decision-maker of their family because, among all of them, she was the most level-headed. 

Two hours later, Lux finally regained a semblance of calmness, allowing Hereswith to help him stand up.

At that exact moment, several figures landed a few meters away from the two Necromancers.

"Hereswith, where do you plan to go after this?" The Elf King, Kazimir, asked. 

Hereswith didn't answer right away. Instead, she lightly patted the head of her Grand Disciple, whose head was still resting on her chest. I think you should take a look at

"Lux, do you want to come with me to Espoire Frieden for a while?" Hereswith asked. "The air there is very fresh, and the scenery is superb. Also, the Elvish Wines are very good. Drinking them will knock you out, and help you forget… for a short while."

Lux didn't answer, as tears continued to stream down the side of his face. Right now, he felt so drained and didn't care much about anything.

After spending a month of continuously grinding and farming Beast Cores, he rarely had a moment of rest.

Before coming to the Divine Empire, he only had two hours of sleep, and the dark circles under his eyes were proof of how exhausted and sleep-deprived he was.

Right now, he wanted nothing more than to shut himself out from the world and sleep in order to not think about his Master's death.

Seeing that the Half-Elf was not in the right state of mind to make a decision, Hereswith glanced at her father and smiled.

"Father, my Grand Disciple and I will be staying in Espoire Frieden for a while," Hereswith stated. "I'm expecting that you will give us the best hospitality that the Elves can offer."

"Of course," King Kazimir replied in a heartbeat, fearing that Hereswith might change her mind if he didn't give a positive reply. "We will open the best wine casks and prepare the best food for you and your Grand Disciple."

Hereswith nodded before shifting her gaze to Valerie and Aur, who had tear stains on their faces. 

Although she had been sleeping inside Blackfire, her mind was quite awake and aware of her surroundings. 

Blackfire also shared images of the outside world in her dreams, so she was well aware of who Valerie and Aur were.

"Both of you are Lux's friends, right?" Hereswith asked with a smile. "How about you accompany him for a while in Espoire Frieden? I promise you that it will be a wonderful experience. Will you be fine with this arrangement, Father?"

"You can bring as many people as you like," King Kazimir replied. "The doors of our kingdom are open to them."

The Dragon King, as well as the Steward of the Crystal Palace, glanced at Valerie and Aur. Truth be told, it was a very rare opportunity to visit the Kingdom of the High Elves.

Now that the Supremes of the continent had chosen their side, forming diplomatic relationships with other places was a needed step to form strong alliances.

All of them were connected through their ties to Hereswith and Lux. They were not really allies and only worked together due to the favor that they owed her.contemporary romance

But since an opportunity had presented itself, it would be foolish to reject such a wonderful offer.

"Faustina, accompany Valerie to Espoire Frieden," the Dragon King said through telepathy. "Ali, Ari, make sure to keep an eye on my daughter."

"""Yes, Your Majesty!"""

Lady Augustina lightly patted Aur's shoulder before glancing at Piccoro and her subordinates.

"The Elven King had given us an invitation," Lady Augustina said softly. "Since that is the case, it will be a good idea to let Aur learn from their culture. Piccoro, take the others and ensure his safety."

"""Yes, Your Excellency!"""

The other Factions also made their intentions known of joining the celebration in Espoire Frieden.

The High King didn't mind allowing these powerful people to enter his kingdom to form connections. 

Now that the world was entering a New Era, forming New Alliances would benefit all of them.

After making the necessary arrangements, Valerie, Aur, and their entourage traveled with Hereswith and Lux to Espoire Frieden together.

As for the Dragon King and the Steward of the Crystal Palace, they would remain in their territories to handle the aftermath of what had just happened in the Divine Empire.

Things were going to be chaotic for a time while the dust settled.

Until then, they would need to remain in their respective territories and ensure that no one would take advantage of the chaos to involve their Domains in their petty schemes.
