Chapter 525

Chapter 525

??With the help of rescue teams, the students safely left the forest and were sent to the safest place in Rosarrio - to Dantes, to their home. In the long history of the reign of the bloody empress, succubi had never broken into the capital.

??Surprisingly, almost none of the students disappeared, but the bodies of four brutally murdered participants were found. In the future, the investigation will show that they were killed by succubi, and this conclusion will arouse suspicion among the families of the victims, because such behavior is not typical for male hunters. Any attempts to find out the details of the investigation will lead to nothing. The authorities will refuse to provide them with records from tournament formations, explaining that they were broken by the same succubi.

??Meanwhile, the generals had positioned their elite troops armed with pulse rifles in the most advantageous positions for combat, and were already expecting the appearance of demons, but intelligence reported that succubi had left the empire's border. The seasoned warriors took this as a deceptive maneuver and began to prepare countermeasures, but there will never be the second invasion.

??The Virgo sect sent an unexpectedly large and strong army to call for help. However, the hasty departure of the succubi put Rosarrio's authorities in an uncomfortable position.

??All the families of the empire were preparing for the worst, but there was no bad news. Unless there were rumors about the mysterious disappearance of the patriarchs of the Valentines and the Clintons, the Minister of Finance and the masters Julius and Feng. They haven't been seen anywhere for a little over a week.

??By the second day, the general concern had significantly decreased, especially for families living in the impregnable Dantes. The Clintons still decided not to postpone the wedding, even despite the absence of the patriarch, yet this date is declared in the document.

??The other evening. The grand celebration is planned for tomorrow.

??High in the sky, the leaderboard of the recent tournament was displayed on the city screen. Apparently, the intervention of the succubi, because of which the competition was interrupted after two and a half days instead of the planned three, turned out to be an insufficient reason for the re-holding of the tournament.

??The list with the names of the participants on the screen changed once a minute. First, those who took from the 500th to the 401st places were shown, then those who took the places from the 400th to the 301st, then from the 300th to the 201st, from the 200th to the 101st, from the 100th to the 65th, and then the participants who took prizes – from the 64th to the 33rd places.

??The 64th place - Rose Valentine - 3308 points.

??The very first name made all the citizens of Dantes gasp in surprise. How did it happen that young Mr. Valentine barely entered the top 64? Isn't he a monstrous genius?

??And only the spectators of the tournament knew that the main culprit of this event was Elsa. Rose's girlfriend was somehow constantly finding him and robbing him. Many people have suggested that she put a tracking formation on Valentine, but how to prove it?

??Seeing the result, Rose breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the soul returned to the body. Now he will definitely become a disciple of the empress and marry Elsa in the foreseeable future.

??Soon an image with the names of the participants who took from the 32nd to the 17th places appeared on the screen, then from the 16th to the 9th and at the very end the names of the leaders who took the first 8 places.

??The 8th place – Juno Stone - 14000 points.

??The 7th place – Elsa Stone - 14001 points.

??The 6th place – …

??The 5th place – …

??The 4th place – Timothy - 19049 points.

??The 3rd place was shared by Clementine and Seraphima – 21012 points.

??The 2nd place – Roman Clinton – 27506 points.

??The 1st place – Dick Baker. – 77777 points.

??There was a deathly silence. The citizens of Dantes stared blankly at the sky. Why did the unsurpassed genius Elsa, who recently entered the great imperial phase, take only 7th place?! Who are these Timothy, Clementine and Seraphima, since they have taken such high positions, and why do they not have surnames?! But the last well-known name - Dick Baker, who took the first place - struck everyone the most.

??«Dick Baker?! That brilliant investigator?! I heard that he is just a noble phaser at the middle stage! How did he manage to take the first place, especially with such a huge margin?!» … «You must be joking! He's doing impossible things again!»

??Princess Haya, who saw the results through the live broadcast, gnashed her teeth in anger. She had a wild desire to train on a punching bag in the shape of Dick. She used her hatred of the fat man as an incentive for training, and it brought results.

??Three princes of Liberia, big as bulls, also watching the broadcast, grabbed their heads: «This fatty still took the first place! Holy shit! Everyone saw how he took points from Elsa, from the imperial phaser at the first stage!» … «Why the hell wasn't he disqualified?! It's clear that he cheated somehow!» … «Fuck! He paid for the victory!»

??Rose recently heard that Elsa was losing points every time she met Baker, but only now, having seen the result, he was finally convinced of this. So Stone was robbing him to give the points to that fat bastard?! The guy became ill from burning indignation, and he lost consciousness.

??Watching the result, Kyon clenched his fists: {The zeroth general, I swear by all the hair on my body, I will break your jaw as soon as I get the chance…} – it turns out there was no 95% penalty for getting points in the tournament. It was not necessary to rip his ass apart to enter the top 64. The question is: why did the zeroth general make such a cruel joke on him? The answer is obvious: he wanted Dick to become famous, so that if he becomes a direct disciple of the empress in the future, the society would not have unnecessary questions.

??Meanwhile, Elsa was sitting next to the fat man and diligently massaging his feet. Over the past 2 days, she has already worn out her nervous system pretty much, wondering what he wants to do with her, allegedly in payment for expensive teleportation. And what will he demand for the salvation of Juno? However, he seemed to have completely forgotten about it. And then suddenly he ordered her to come to him to give him a foot massage!

??Lovr blissfully closed his eyelids, lounging on an armchair, and purred: «Kaif…»

??The blonde pursed her lips in embarrassment. As a child, she learned to do massage to please her beloved dad, now Dick is reaping the fruits of her labors…

??«It's strange…» – Kyon suddenly noticed. – «Last time, your foot massage was like trying to make a golem out of clay… Now everything is different. Why?»

??«I learned how to do it. Recently.»

??«You're lying, bunny. You can't just learn such a filigree art in a few days.» – he broke into a wide smile. – «As I suspected, you always knew how to do massage, but the first time you deliberately pretended to be rude and incompetent to turn me away from it. You're smart! However, I can't understand, why are you doing it with diligence now? Have you fallen in love with me?»

??«I haven't!» – the charming blonde's face turned pink. – «I just want to express my gratitude to you for saving Juno… I hope you are satisfied.»

??«You owe me more than you can imagine, Elsa. No matter how amazing your massage is, you will never pay me off like this. Besides, you are a smart girl and you understand perfectly well that by doing me such a pleasant service, you signed yourself up for everyday work at my feet… Oh, did you do it on purpose?»

??«Shut up!» – Elsa, who was blushing, could not stand it, interrupting the fat man. She didn't fully understand why she revealed her skills, and this bastard reads her like an open book, flaunting what she is ashamed to even think about.

??Soon, Kyon closed his eyes and deliberately let his erection intensify to the full to make the girl burn with shame. Why not? Her reaction was very amusing.

??As soon as the fat man fell asleep, Stone sped away. She never seems to get used to it. And why did his penis shrink? Or was it her imagination?

??When Elsa left, Kyon took out a cloudy green ball from the ring - Giselle's gift, which he took from Juno the previous night. Disposable flight technique. You can't buy this even in the Golden Pig guild. The formation will definitely come in handy someday. It seems that the matriarch Ruru understands that it is better to cooperate with him. She is not stupid.

??As a result, thanks to the tournament in the forests of Regan, Lovr got the opportunity to pass the final exam (when he would accumulate the necessary number of points), gained even more popularity and awards for the first position in the ranking, received the invaluable flight formation and, most importantly, saved his precious "investment" from competitors.

??…

??The next day. Midday. The central part of the Clintons' territory.

??More than a thousand noble guests gathered in the ceremonial temple of the goddess Danna: the Russells, the Valentines, the Clintons, the Hunters, the Feruzs and other representatives of the royal families, as well as King Vladimir and, of course, the Stones.

??Elsa was hiding somewhere in the corner, not coming out of invisibility. She did not want her grandfather to see her until she returned her father, otherwise she would have to make excuses with guilt in her heart for her escape from the family, committed several years ago.

??Despite his unhealthy appearance, Rose also came. Of course. After all, he is Roman's best friend. They became friends in childhood largely due to the fact that they were always in the shadows of their older brothers – Stein Valentine and Artemis Clinton.

??Roman's older brother Artemis was also present at the wedding. The stately young man bore little resemblance to his younger brother. Perhaps he attracted too much attention to himself, at least because he bore the title of the empress' junior disciple.

??But Rose's older brother, Stein, who was also the empress's senior disciple, was absent, apparently considering this event not important enough.

??Finally, the wedding symphony sounded. The guests of the hall rose from their seats.

??The large doors of the temple swung open, and the newlyweds and their escorts marched through them: the bride's mother Diana and grandfather Bai, who was now and then furtively wiping his eyes with a handkerchief, walked beside her. He looked like he was going to burst into tears. Roman's mother and grandfather walked beside him.

??Everyone was puzzled. Why doesn't Horace accompany his son to his wedding? Maybe something happened to him? And only the Clintons knew that something terrible had really happened to their patriarch, but they were not going to spoil this significant holiday. The bad news will be announced in a week.

??Roman was dressed in a black tuxedo. His short black hair was slicked back. There was fire in his eyes, and his chest was proudly protruding. He was incredibly happy that his bride was an exorbitantly gifted heavenly genius, moreover, the most beautiful girl in the whole world. He had long dreamed of getting her.

??However, Juno attracted the attention of all viewers. Like a graceful flower plucked straight from the Garden of Eden, she radiated a fragrant aura, inspiring the soul. And although the girl's face was hidden by a veil, no one doubted that she was incredibly beautiful. The slender figure of the bride was enveloped in an airy thin white dress without a fluffy skirt. She was walking towards the altar with a gliding gait, like an angel hovering above the clouds.

??Admiring the dazzlingly beautiful blonde, Rose swallowed with envy, however, almost all the other young people in the hall did so, especially her fans. It seems that the expression of undisguised envy on Artemis's face pleased Roman – he could not restrain a smug grin.

??The attendants took their places, and the newlyweds approached the altar. The wedding ceremony has begun. After reading out a standard speech, the elder took an oath of allegiance from the young people, asked them to exchange rings and seal the union with a kiss.

??When Roman lifted the veil, the guests of the hall, who saw Juno's face for the first time, gasped in amazement. The appearance of the bride touched them to the core. Indescribably sweet, stunningly attractive lady pushed all sorts of boundaries of standards of female beauty. The supreme angel – these were the words that were spinning in the heads of people devouring the girl with their eyes. She was still Stone.

??A few barely noticeable wrinkles of disgust appeared on Juno's face due to Roman's predatory gaze, wanting to kiss her. She closed her eyes (and it seemed to some that she squeezed them shut), thereby allowing the guy to kiss her.

??Roman gladly took the initiative and dug into the soft fragrant lips of his wife. Oh, how delicious and pleasant she is! His eyes were closing with pleasure.

??At the end of the kiss, the audience burst into applause. Party poppers exploded, a solemn melody began to play. Bai finally burst into tears. Diana could barely contain her disapproval. Fans of the girl wanted to get drunk as soon as possible to fall into oblivion. Life is trash.

??The elder imposed the Clinton family formation on the husband and wife, after that the newlyweds went to the banquet hall to the cheerful congratulations of the guests.

??The fun continued until late in the evening. The celebration included the best dishes in the empire, the rarest alcoholic drinks, dozens of toasts and congratulations, thousands of gifts, atmospheric music from popular musicians, as well as all sorts of traditional interesting contests with a good entertainer attached to them…

??Roman even persuaded his wife to dance with him. How damn gracefully she moved! The guy felt like a clumsy bull next to her. Her every smooth movement was full of grace, as if she was a born dancer. All the hired dancers next to her looked shyly at the floor. Her slender body seemed to drift on the waves, and the way she simultaneously rhythmically and seductively shook her elastic hips simply deprived everyone of the ability to think, especially her fans and husband. But her emerald gaze was even more captivating… She is perfect! Clinton realized that he had succumbed to her charms and fell in love with her. Gorgeous! There is nothing wrong with falling in love with your own wife, especially on the eve of the wedding night.

??Alas, she did not honor her husband with more than one dance.

??Soon the wedding night came, and Roman, taking Juno in his arms, carried her to his chambers under the envious glances of the male half of the guests. Some of them even cried.

??The couple were followed by a group of powerful bodyguards.
