Chapter 628: Specialty Dish

Cecile leaned back with a smile on her face before she muttered, "He is really popular with powerful women in the area."

Kesya nodded as Lumina could only squint her eyes in exasperation.

"It would be a tough time ahead to keep him in check, especially since he is in his adolescence years, we could only be thankful that it's not the early adolescence years, else things would be hectic, though, hehe, I wonder how cute he would look," added Kesya.

Cecile replied, "The one that knew how he looked as a kid were his grandparents, even Selena found him in his teen, but she feel nothing but hate for my dearest then, shame. She just kicked a gold away."

"Oh really?" Kesya raised her eyebrows as her eyes sparkled. She looked at Cecile with her ears begging for more satisfying memories of the young emperor.

"Oh? You didn't know? Then I won't tell," said Cecile with a smile.

Kesya could only press her lips together as they stretched horizontally.

"Maybe next time, she would tell you herself, if you can survive her deathly arts," Cecile chuckled.

Queen Wanda smiled as she clasped her hands, "Then it's settled!"

Lyon nodded with a satisfied smile.

(Why are you nodding?!) thought Porealus.

Lyon proceeded to find the seats meant for the three of them and sat in the middle. He looked at the three leaders from the Mortal World with a smile on his face before the two princesses sat each on his sides.

"My, you look like an emperor with these two beauties beside you," jested Wanda.

"I know right, haha!" Lyon laughed heartily.

Wanda twitched her smile (Sometimes I forgot that he was more a rough than a noble). She was not alone that felt this way, the only one that laughed at the table was Tael, whilst the latter's best friend, Carius obviously disagreed. 

As a person that would eventually become the number one role model in the world, Carius thought that he must appear perfect on every angle, yet strict and just at the same time. However, this was all a dream world that he was thinking, even if he was to scold the young man in front of him, chances of Lyon changing was lesser than him dying right where he was seated.

Queen Wanda took an empty glass before she raised it from the table then tap it twice with a silver knife.

"Thank you all for coming to our humble dinner in the Sverine Inn. I'm pleased that I see no dissatisfaction from your smiles. It makes this old heart flutter," she smiled before she continued, "I know the day was wild and eventful, I also know the disappointment that all of you are feeling against First Heaven. I truly do. I hope with this little hospitality from our Sverine Kingdom would amend, even though just a little bit, amend the disappointment from all these years that my neighboring kingdoms had inflicted. Of course, I'm not talking about the Bolg Kingdom."

Wanda winked at Hilde who was furrowing her eyebrows, "I was talking about the Golden Dragon Kingdom and the Pala Kingdom. How lucky it is for First Heaven, for a hero would come and save us all from those two greedy kingdoms. And the hero comes from the place that they truly despised with their guts. It was the perfect end for them. Please, everyone, give merry applause to Lyon Torga!"

Kesya immediately stood up before clapping her hands then the rest followed her.

Lyon was grinning as he nodded without even standing up for himself. He was basking in the limelight lest from being modest. He looked so weak and irritating for some but even the waiters knew that he might appear to be a foolish noble on the outside, for the next thing they knew, the sky might fall because the fool was pushing it down.

"Alright," said Wanda after the last clap and everyone had sat back on their seats. "Please enjoy the cuisine from Sverine Inn, only the finest of finest that we will serve, for hopes of keeping our newly formed friendships tight."

"Oh? I forgot to ask your permission," said Lyon.

"Hm?" the queen had not yet put her butt down. 

"Well you see, my friend Assid likes to be in the kitchen, so I do apologize for the food that you might serve will also have our specialties in some dishes," said Lyon before he scratched the back of his head.

"Oh? It would be delightful, young master Lyon Torga," said Cherie as she turned around slightly and touched his forearm with her hand. 

"Hm?" Lyon turned to face her but before he could speak a word, the queen said.

"It's truly as my daughter had just said, it would be delightful, but for next time, you don't need to ask my permission to use the kitchen, I trust you, Lyon, and I trust your friends as well," the queen nodded.

Such strong and aggressive words made Hilde furrow her eyebrows.

"Then, let's enjoy the dining!" said Wanda before she sat down.

"Hmm, young master," Cherie suddenly took one food to her plate and cut it, "Would you mind trying our fine dish? This is called Aure Lacarim. It is made with aged meat and a special seasoning called Aure. I won't go into the details since our chef will be better suited to explain it to you if you are truly interested."

"Hm? Truly an interesting name," Lyon nodded as he grinned.

"Next time you have to visit my kingdom, we have a dish that rivals Aure Lacarim as well, it's called Grilled Foyi," said Hilde before she sent a glaring glare toward Cherie. Between their eyes, there was lightning coiling against one another with Lyon in between. 

"You should visit ours too, our lady has this special recipe called, Firmament of Void Paradise," said Kesya as she grinned.

The tension between the two princesses was broken immediately but…

"?!" Lyon could feel his goosebumps rise as his heart quickened.
