The Crown Of The Nine Continents
Chapter 41: The Beginning of the Conference
The main street connected to the Royal Palace of Aulzania is currently being electrified.All this uproar is caused by a pair of men and women walking side by side.People are huddling along the street, and, watching this pair of men and women. There was a reason why these people were crowding around, that reason was because the Man had outstanding good looks. And a woman of her own has a dazzling beauty.
These two people were Ren and Nirlayn who were walking towards the Palace. In fact, when they walk people will pave the way for both of them by themselves.
Ren did not want this excessive attention at all. However, it was impossible for her to avoid, let alone this time she was accompanied by Nirlayn who was no less beautiful.
"Nirlayn, are you bothered by those people's gazes?" While walking, Ren asked Nirlayn who was following him.
"It's not Ren-sama at all." Nirlayn replied to Ren firmly.
"That's... Nice."
'It turns out I was alone who was disturbed...' Ren sighed, knowing that he was the only one who was disturbed.
"Ah yes Nirlayn, I'll ask you something." Ren stopped walking for a while to turn around at Nirlayn, then continued on again.
"Of course Ren-sama, what do you want to know..?" Nirlayn replied with a smile.
"So, can you use Blood Art to form something else?" Ren moved - his hand movements, as if he was making something.
"Hm.. I can't Ren-sama, each object has different mana characteristics. Because for now I can only match her with a claw, then I can only imitate it." Nirlayn explained to Ren.
"I understand... In other words, you have to match where you are with the thing that will be imitated first?" Ren stopped walking back, then held his chin.
"Yes, you're right Ren-sama." Nirlayn.
"In that case, I'll give you a little advice, you better replace the claws with something else."
"Eh? Why is Ren-sama?" Nirlayn put a question mark expression on his face.
"The fighting style is not at all suitable for you. After all, the Claws are the mainstay weapons of the Vampires."
Ren's words were like a bolt of lightning striking Nirlayn's Heart. He had just realized, that the Vampire Race was indeed using their Claws to attack.
"Eh! Ren-sama, you are right! do you not like me like that?! I'll change it soon!" Nirlayn shouted in panic. Of course his voice increasingly attracted the attention of people who watched them.
The shout made Ren stop walking and turn around at Nirlayn.
"Std.. You don't need to be that sweet, I'm just suggesting, doesn't mean I hate you for using the Claw like that." Ren brought the index finger closer to his lips, hinting that Nirlayn was not too loud in speaking.
"Ma-I'm sorry....Ren-san." Nirlayn spoke slowly.
"Yes, as long as you understand." Ren nodded and walked back....

The Royal Palace of Aulzania.
Dozens of Soldiers lined up guarding this Gate, they aimed to welcome a very important guest. The King ordered them to treat this guest as best they could. Therefore, they keep watch with the best line up.
"Hey, who is the important guest by His Majesty.?" One of the Soldiers on guard asked the other Soldier beside him.
"I don't know, when only yesterday His Majesty was attacked right?" The other soldier shook his head.
"Yes, Your Majesty is a heba-" The word of a Soldier is cut off by the words of another Soldier.
"Hey, look at that, the two people who walked in here?" One of the Soldiers pointed at the Path that was in front of him.
"Oh, you're right, those two people... Are they what His Majesty meant?"
"The important person should be wearing a Horse Train, right...? But, just to keep watch let's ask them politely."
"Yes, you're right." All the soldiers nodded.
It only took a little while before the Second Person whom the Soldier was referring to arrived before them. However, when the two people actually arrived, the Soldiers were stunned. One of the two men was a man who had a very handsome face. Not only that, the Man also brought out the Aura of a wise ruler. Plus, the person accompanying him was someone they had known, he was the guest of the King who came from yesterday's incident.
'Miss Nirlayn...?' They all said the same thing in his heart.
One of the Warriors awakened himself from his daydream. He approached the two to greet them.
"Hello, sir, may I know who you are? so, what's your business here?"
The soldier asked and smiled kindly, he also said politely. Although the man was with Nirlayn whom they had recognized as the King's guest, he was not necessarily the important guest referred to by the King.
"....."
The man was seen slightly observing the situation at the Palace Entrance Gate. He looked here and there, after doing that, only then did he notice the Soldier who spoke to him.
"I am Anryzel Dirvaren, someone who wants to meet the King." The man said it calmly.
"ah! So you really are the guest referred to by His Majesty!" The soldier smiled widely.
"Welcome to the Royal Palace of Aulzania!" Soldiers pay homage together.
"Hm...?" Ren furrowed his brows.
"Come, I'll escort you and Miss to the Palace."
"Alright, let's go Nirlayn..." Ren follows the Warrior who welcomes him, along with Nirlayn to enter the Palace Gate.
"Yes, Ren-sama..." Nirlayn replied faintly, his voice so slow that only Ren could hear him.
Durururuu!
The gate to the Palace opened, revealing everything within the Gate. The first sight to enter Ren's view is a beautiful and spacious green garden, with some workers taking care of the Park. A magnificent and very large Palace was seen, in every corner of the Palace there were 6 towers that had different colors.
"This is, quite beautiful..." Ren spoke slowly.
Then they walked through the Palace Garden with a Soldier who was their guide. Ren had already affirmed the King who had not welcomed himself directly at the Gate of Entry. How not, this conference is something Ren said to be something Secret. Only the most important people of the Kingdom are allowed to know this.
After walking for a long time through the park, Ren could see the Palace was getting closer. Before arriving in front of the Palace, there was a huge Fountain, connecting the Path he passed and the other Paths.
"Rin-sama..." Nirlayn called Ren and pointed at the Palace not far from them.
Ren shook his head at the few people waiting in front of the Palace. To the King himself who was standing there.
In the end, Ren had passed through the Fountain. Right now, he was staring at some people who were standing in front of the Palace. Some of those people were the King, the Prince, the Queen, Derrian, Fraudlin, a middle-aged man, a woman wearing a face mask, and lastly Sarlyn...
"Then, please excuse me..." The soldier said goodbye to everyone who was there.
The soldier left with a pale face, it seemed like he was feeling tense from meeting the most important people in this entire Kingdom. After the Soldier's departure, the King smiled at Ren...
"Mr Dirvaren! Welcome!" The King greeted Ren with Enthusiasm.
"Welcome Mr. Dirvaren.." The Queen welcomes Ren.
"Welcome Mr. Dirvaren.!" The prince welcomed Ren.
"Mr Dirvaren, I say Welcome." Derrian did the same.
"Master Dirvaren's...!" Fraudlin immediately approached Ren with a smiling face.
"Welcome, Master!"
"Yes, thank you for such an honorable welcome, King Esdagius." Ren nodded with a smile.
"Well, let's start our business immediately, won't we, King Esdagius?" Ren gave a suggestion, although his face was filled with smiles yet it was so mysterious.
"Yes, you're right. Let's go in and start this interest.." The king nodded in agreement to the proposal Ren gave.
Everyone then entered the Royal Palace of Aulzania....

Ren followed the King to enter the Palace. Then he passed by the figure of Sarlyn who was looking at him anxiously.
"Pulse... Anu, T-Mr Dirvar-en?" Sarlyn greeted Ren who was walking past her.
Sarlyn's words only made Ren glance at her a little. But, with no care Ren ignored Sarlyn and walked back. Ren's attitude makes Sarlyn look desperate, after hearing the King's explanation of the truth of all this, makes Sarlyn inevitably overcome with great regret.
"Master Dirvaren! Please forgive me!" Sarlyn chased after Ren who was walking, she held onto a bit of the Back Clothes that Ren was wearing. Makes Ren stop walking...
"What..? You dare talk to me? A Low-class witch like you has no right to beg me..." Ren stared intently at Sarlyn who was behind him. Ren's eyes lit up red, making time seem to stop moving.
"Hhh...?" Sarlyn walked backwards.
Bruukkk.
He then fell on the floor, his eyes filled with fear.
"Tu-Tuan Dirvaren, relax, we better get to the place where we're going to talk..." The king calmed Ren with a pale face.
"You're right, I'm sorry..." Ren nodded and followed the King.
Everyone did the same, leaving Sarlyn sitting limply on the floor. Sarlyn was left in a sobbing state - sobs..

Conference Room.
A large round table is located in the center of the room. Together with the luxurious chairs lined around the round table. All the seats should have been fifteen, but since there were only ten people present, some seats were removed to make them look more comfortable.
They sat facing each other, the King and the people from the Aulzania Kingdom side facing Ren and Nirlayn. Some places were deliberately vacated, so that Ren could be witnessed by the people of the Kingdom.
There were two people from the Kingdom that Ren did not know about. One was a mysterious woman wearing a face mask, then another one was a wise looking middle-aged man.
"Ehm...! All right, everyone here.!" The king opened the conversation.
"First, let me introduce to you, the one who proposed this Conference, he is Mr. Anryzel Dirvaren....." The king introduced Ren to his people, probably only the two unknown people, who did not know Ren's figure.
"Thank you King Esdagius for introducing me. I want to ask you a little bit, who are these two people I don't know yet..?" Ren asked the identities of the two people he did not recognize.
"Hm.. I'veforgot.... Rialna's okay, right? Etharez?" The King turned to the Queen and the Prince, as if asking Permission over something.
"My king, I trust in all your decisions." The Queen closed her eyes, she had bestowed her decision upon the King.
"As with me, Your Majesty, the decision is yours." The Prince spoke Formal to his father, probably because there were many others here.
"Yes, Okay. Mr. Dirvaren, the first middle-aged man is my right-hand man, Margen. The women who wear this face cover are.... My daughter."
"Your daughter...?" Ren seemed to be thinking of something.
'Oh my goodness, I forgot this... He also mentioned about the Moon Princess right?'
Ren remembered Gyslen's words that night. Gyslen asks who is prettier between herself and the Moon Princess.
"True Mr. Dirvaren, she is my daughter Sylna Asnien Ri Aulzania. It's only natural that you don't know yourself." The king introduced his daughter.
"Hm.. The natural thing?" Ren furrowed his brows.
"Yes karen-" The king will speak but is cut off by Ren's words.
"No, don't answer it right now... We prioritize important matters first."
"Pulse. Mr. Dirvaren is right..."
The conference begins soon....
