Chapter 70 I made a grand entrance in the Royal Capital?

The magic airship finally arrived above the bustling Royal Capital.

Serena looked out at the stunning view, her eyes bright with excitement as she took in the magnificent sight. Turning to Lumiere, who was being smothered by Isadora and her ample bosom, Serena called out to him.

"Finally." (Lumiere)

Lumiere saw it as an opportunity to escape Isadora's tight embrace, deftly slipping away from her and rushing over to Serena.

"Look, my lord," she said, gesturing towards the view, "it's the Royal Capital!"

Lumiere's eyes went wide with amazement as he gazed out at the sprawling city below. "It looks incredible as always," he said in awe.

Back on the ground, the citizens of the Royal Capital were in a state of panic when they spotted the airship. They began to speculate about what it could be doing there, their minds racing with worry and fear.

"This isn't good!" (Reginald)

Meanwhile, Sir Reginald, the personal guard of the King, burst into the throne room with a look of alarm on his face.

He called out the King's name several times until he finally responded. "What is it, Reginald? Have you gone mad?" the King asked, annoyed at the intrusion.

Sir Reginald's voice was urgent as he explained that there was a magic airship above the Royal Capital.

The King and Lord Commissioner Felton were shocked to hear this news. No airship had ever made a stop in the Royal Capital without announcing their arrival beforehand.

Within moments, the King and Lord Commissioner Felton had rushed out of the throne room with their guards in tow. The Royal family had already been alerted to the situation and were outside, trying to get a glimpse of what was happening.

The crown prince, Arthur, and Jericho were both outside looking up at the airship.

"What is that thing?" Arthur asked, his voice filled with wonder.

"It's an airship," Jericho replied. "But what is it doing here?"

"What's going on?!" (Garret)

Garret, Genevieve, and the knights of the Knights of the Cross were also there, all looking up at the airship with a mixture of curiosity and concern.

The tension in the air was palpable.

Moments later, the King's four wives - Bluestella, Ayisha, Pasiphae, and Geraldine - stepped out of the mansion, each accompanied by their personal maids. They all gazed up at the airship with dread.

Salmarc (26, tenth child, seventh son) felt the airship looming over them, casting a menacing shadow that made him gulp in fear. As the sound of swords being drawn filled the air, the knights took up their positions, ready to take on whoever was inside.

But little did they know, Lumiere had a surprise in store for them.

"Alright, time to go." (Lumiere)

"Yes," Serena smiled.

"Don't take time to summon us back, okay?" said Isadora, lasciviously.

Inside the airship, Lumiere raised his hand and chanted a spell, causing Serena and Isadora to vanish into orbs of light. The interior of the airship was spacious and comfortable, powered by a magic core that hummed with energy. Lumiere walked over to the door and pushed a button, pouring some of his mana into it. With a whoosh of air, the door opened and Lumiere rolled down the ladder, making a grand entrance that took the Royal Family by surprise.

As he waved to his father from high up, King Grey froze up and fell, but was quickly caught by his faithful Sir Reginald.

"Are you okay, Your Majesty?" the knight asked, concern etched on his face.

"I'm fine, I'm fine," the King muttered, still reeling from the shock of seeing his estranged son show up out of nowhere.

Meanwhile, Lumiere's half-sister Genevieve (20, fourteenth child, fourth daughter) was ecstatic to see her him, rushing over to him and enveloping him in a tight embrace that left him gasping for air.

"Big brother, how have you been?" she asked, her eyes shining with joy.

Lumiere chuckled, the familiar feeling of being smothered by her ample bosom bringing a smile to his face.

"I've been good, Genevieve," he replied, patting her on the back. "But could you give me some room to breathe?"

"Okay!" (Genevieve)

"(Ha, I guess she still has the habit of calling me big brother)" (Lumiere)

As she did, his father and the four wives gazed at him in disbelief, wondering what had brought him back to the Royal Capital after all these months.

Of course, no one forgot about him. After all, they needed someone to vent their frustrations out on.

Lumiere simply grinned and shook his head, knowing that there was no easy way to explain his sudden appearance. "Well, I guess I'm back," he said with a shrug, causing the king burst out into laughter.

"That's my boy!" the king shouted and then smouldered. "He's back," he switched to a flat voice.

"Father," Lumiere said, bowing from where he stood.

Arthur, the crown prince, trotted over to him and gave him a playful pat on the head. "Hey there, little brother. Glad to have you back," Arthur said, smiling sheepishly.

Lumiere chuckled, happy to see his dear half-brother. "Thanks, Brother Art. It's good to be back," he replied.

Salmarc, on the other hand, folded his arms and glared at Lumiere, clearly unhappy with his sudden appearance.

Salmarc's mother, Ayisha. (55, first wife), beamed at Lumiere, happy to see him after such a long time.

Jericho snuck up behind Lumiere and grabbed him in a playful headlock, rattling his mind. "You little rascal, I missed you!" Jericho exclaimed as Lumiere laughed out loud, trying his best to keep his wits about him.

"Brother Jer, easy with the headlock. You're going to give me a concussion," Lumiere joked, rubbing his head.

Genevieve, pouting and jealous that Jericho got to hug Lumiere, stuck her bottom lip out. "Hey, why don't I get to hold Lumiere too?" she whined, giving Lumiere a puppy dog look.

Lumiere rolled his eyes and screamed, "I'm not a toy!" causing everyone to laugh.

Arthur chimed in, telling Lumiere how much he had missed his company.

"I can't wait for us to resume our discussions in the study." (Arthur)

"Excellent, Brother Art. I'd love to learn some new languages.." (Lumiere)

"I'll also teach you about Alakhorian tea service... fufufu.." (Arthur)

Garret, the head of the knights of the Cross, tackled Lumiere with a big bear hug. Lumiere grunted as Garret's armor dug into his ribs, causing him to wheeze. "Easy there, Garret. You're going to break some ribs, you madman!" Lumiere exclaimed, coughing up a lung.

The other knights were glad to see him too.

Pasiphae (51, fourth wife), not happy with Lumiere's return, stormed off into the mansion, muttering under her breath about making him regret his decision to come back.

Geraldine (52, third wife), indifferent to Lumiere's return, stepped back into the mansion.

She uttered he most unenthusiastic "wow".

Her sons, Teramath, Lloyd, and Bell, followed her, each engrossed in his own activity.

Lloyd, admiring his own reflection on a handheld mirror, joked to himself, "Who needs the fifteenth child when I've got this face?"

He then referred to Lumiere as the "fifteenth child" because he couldn't recall his given name.

Lumiere quickly noticed that someone was missing.

Lana (30, seventh child and third daughter), was nowhere to be found. Confused and concerned, he asked "Uh, where's Lana?"

The moment his father, King Grey, heard that name, the atmosphere became tense, and everyone fell silent. Bluestella, Lana's mother, was the first to storm out of the courtyard, clearly infuriated.

Noticing the sudden change in mood, Micah, Bluestella?s fourth child, approached him with a smile, trying to lighten the mood. "Hey, Brother Lumiere. You probably shouldn't have mentioned Lana around mother."

"W-what happened to her?!" Lumiere asked.
