"Mother ... Why is my child not awake yet? Nothing bad happens right?"
It had been more than 10 hours since Arthur fell into a coma, anxiety, and worry were visible on Elizabeth's face.
Arthur is her treasure, her most precious child, if for some reason Arthur would never open his eyes again, then Elizabeth may not be able to bear such a loss.
"Okay ~ our puppy is assimilating my legacy, this is normal ~"
Margareth on the other hand smiled, calming her daughter's anxiety, since Arthur fell into a coma, Margareth took care of him in her arms, while she made use of her enormous magical power, guiding and supervising her awakening.
The judgment of Fate is unpredictable and sometimes makes no sense, but it is necessary if she wanted to awaken the Eyes of Infinity.
For that, Margareth did not part with Arthur and took care of the entire awakening, alleviating her daughter's worries in the process, while with her hand she held a brush, carefully and tenderly, brushing Arthur's fur and tails, after All in all, being in his spirit form, his tenderness was even more lethal to Margareth.
"But, this is what you wanted, isn't it? Elizabeth ~"
Widening her smile, Margareth stopped her hand, as she sensed the multiple presences in the Mansion.
"..."
Understanding what her mother meant, Elizabeth did not respond, after all, she was right, Arthur and Cristie's birthday is tomorrow and with that, the nobles had started arriving at the Mansion.
Many of them have already arrived and that includes the Royal Family and the 4 super Families.
Each one of them was accompanied by her descendants, it was obvious why they were here.
Political Marriage ...
Being the only Male Spirit Fox in the world, his worth was incalculable.
And everyone wanted a piece of the cake, with how rare they are and the benefits it offered.
There was no doubt that the woman who managed to marry Arthur would have a great influence in the future and her status would rise.
Because of this, Elizabeth was somewhat grateful to her mother, as with Arthur in a coma, it was reason enough to prevent her from appearing in public.
And with this, the protection of her little one was assured for a few more years.
Margareth was aware of this and she did not agree with Elizabeth's method of protection, Arthur is not a canary in a cage.
His freedom was limited to this Mansion and if he continued like this, years later, Arthur may grow up with a deformed personality and it would be a great loss if that happens.
Margareth doesn't want that to happen, that's why she decided to hand over his legacy, only with power will Arthur be free.
"Huh?"
But while brushing Arthur's fur, Margareth felt a mana disturbance, likewise, Arthur's body began to glow and the third incomplete tail quickly formed.
Even Elizabeth was aware of this since Mana's disturbance was indeed so great that she couldn't help but worry.
"Woke up huh?"
"My little!"
Seeing how the laws of the world, she was in total sync, and fate began to revolve around her grandson, Margareth could finally sigh in relief, as it was all over.
However, she soon enough opened her mouth in shock, as a beam of light shot from Arthur's body into the sky, illuminating much of the territory.
---------------
"Why can't I see it ?! I'm the oldest princess! I have the right to see it! Who dares deny me this ?!"
She waving her hands up and down in frustration.
Lilian pointed to her guard, as the future Queen of the country, she had a very high status, no matter where she was, she would be treated with the utmost respect, always fulfilling her wishes.
This included the nobles ...
Unfortunately, the Van Panthohime house was different, they are one of the 5 Super Families that protect the Kingdom, also a Duke.
The authority and influence they had over the kingdom are only surpassed by the Royal family.
"Please forgive me Your Highness, but this is the home of a Duke and Master Arthur is one of the greatest treasures of the Van Panthohime household, even if it is you, I'm afraid you can't see him right now"
Kneeling on one knee, a young woman in armor and a dragon's tail sighed with regret, this was the royal family's guard, as well as a powerful Elemental Dragon, Black Core.
If we speak in terms of energy, this woman was as strong as Elizabeth herself, in terms of who she would win if they faced each other in a battle, well the result is obvious, an elemental nucleus lacks in potency against a spiritual nucleus.
"Ahh! I'll tell my mother!"
With her tail hitting the ground, Lilian strode out of her room, originally she had come to this party for the sole purpose of meeting Arthur and proposing to him.
She thought that being a princess, the Van Panthohime house would be happy to accept, even Arthur himself should be happy to be part of the family Real and thus become the husband of the future Queen.
Who would have thought that upon arrival, any attempt to see him was rejected without hesitation?
This infuriated her.
"Mother!"
Entering the room, Lilian quickly started to complain.
Damaris Ness Bartholeme, was the current ruler, as well as a spiritual dragon and like Margareth, she is a Transcendent.
So due to her status, she was given the best of the rooms and assigned several maids to attend to all her needs.
Damaris upon hearing the complaints of her daughter, slightly waved her dragon tail, while she lazily leaned back on her comfortable sofa, made with the best feathers in the kingdom.
This small act made the scales of her tail shine and emphasized more her plump chest, likewise, her black hair fell on her back like a waterfall, while her beautiful dragon horns, the royal Crown floated above her, there was no doubt that she was a charming and attractive woman, who would not lose against a supermodel or any other noblewomen, except for the Spirit Foxes and the High Elves.
That people like her were present at a birthday party for the son of a Duchess, represented a great honor, as well as the special care that the Royal Family had with the Van Panthohime.
Likewise, make sure you get a political marriage.
"Is that so? Too bad I can't play with you Lilian, you'll have to wait"
"Mother!"
Seeing her mother wag her tail, not caring about her complaints, Lilian got even angrier.
But there was nothing she could do, this is not the royal castle, plus even if she requests an audience, it is likely that she will be rejected.
Margareth's strong presence is enough of a deterrent for all the nobles to behave and wait for the party.
Margareth is feared, because of her great power.
Even Damaris as the Queen and Transcendent has a deep respect for him and she fears her power.
In addition, that belonging to the old generation, Margareth has a higher status than Damaris, only her mother, the former Queen, would be able to order Margareth.
Not to mention Damaris, she is Margareth's disciple, so she didn't dare to cause trouble in her master's house.
It is because of this, Damaris was fresh as lettuce and I wait until the day of the party.
"Mother"
"Dear mother"
Entering the room where her other two children, Charlotte and Carter.
Both had been touring the Van Panthohime Mansion while greeting other nobles, likewise when they returned they were surprised to see her older sister complain to her mother.
(Not good...)
Charlotte had already guessed the reason, Lilian is obsessed with Arthur, that his actions are sometimes extreme and tend to generate problems.
This personality of hers led the royal family to ruin and Arthur's rejection of her was also the greatest of hers.
"It is good that they have returned"
With her three children gathered from her, Damaris clapped her hands.
"It is time for me to explain things a little to you, about the Van Panthohime"
She needed to make them understand that the Van Panthohime are not like other nobles and that in this Mansion they should present etiquette and not abuse their authority.
To start, the Van Panthohime, being a family that has existed since the creation of the kingdom.
Their race is very special, likewise the spiritual race with the smallest population among the nobles.
This is because male spirit foxes are very rare, their family for generations breeding with other spirit races to continue to exist.
Due to this, his race has developed the territory and is very rich, likewise, his military power is outstanding over other races.
Margareth was a clear example, her power is great, which has far surpassed that of the other super Families.
All this is due to the administration and strict teachings from childhood, that spirit foxes are groomed, to seek out men with strong genes and thus marry politically, offering various gifts to the man's family.
But everything changes when a male spirit fox is born, the Van Panthohime will not seek political marriage and will marry between families, in addition, that male spirit foxes are very powerful from birth.
His genes are the strongest, likewise, his spiritual power is greatest.
Three thousand years ago, the last male spirit fox became the strongest in the world and was named the first in the world.
But this is not the most terrifying, its charm is very lethal for single women ...
Three thousand years ago, a male spirit fox was one of the reasons for a world war to occur.
What a terrifying character, thousands and thousands of women fell victim to his charms.
And once his virginity is stolen, the woman who obtained it will obtain a blessing that far surpasses that of other males.
Besides that, there is a legend, that when a Fox spiritual Male has extremely strong power, it can reproduce without depleting its power and dying.
Have sex with any woman he wants and not suffer from the terrible side effect.
This legend is not confirmed yet, since only a male Spirit Fox has achieved this feat and it was three thousand years ago, so not much is known about it, however, it is still something tempting, even if it is only a legend.
This is why male spirit foxes are very valuable and nobles have always been on good terms with the Van Panthohime, waiting for the day that a Male spirit fox will be born again.
(Well this is natural)
Nodding her head, Charlotte as someone who read the novel and played the game, knew that Arthur's value was very high, likewise, also due to that value, his fear and distrust of women was the highest, so Conquering him was almost impossible, only Cristie could marry him and that was due to her obligation as Noble.
Not to mention that Arthur was the most beautiful and best character of all.
"Tch!"
Carter, on the other hand, clicked his tongue in displeasure, hearing from his mother that there was a child even more valuable than himself, a prince, he did not like me.
He is a Male Spirit Dragon, a member of the strongest race in the World, as well as a man born royalty, it was obvious that his value as a man far exceeds all, his lineage is superior and his status is the greatest.
His existence and pedigree were the largest in the world.
But there is a child who is even more valuable than him, this led him unconscious to hate Arthur.
Are you just a noble?
What rights do you have to rise above the Royal family?
(I am a Dragon! I am the most valuable!)
However, he also had mixed feelings, since due to Arthur's existence, he will not have to marry his sisters and future marriage interviews will be minimal, saving from the tedious courtship.
Lilian was delighted, she wagged her tail with joy as she thought about how her future would be, married to Arthur.
"Huh ?!"
But as Damaris explained, a huge mana disturbance shook the entire Mansion and the laws of the world were rapidly changing.
Something big was happening.
And before he could figure out what was happening, a light shot into the sky, projecting a huge Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox, which due to its gigantic size was visible throughout the territory.
* Auuuuuuuuuuu
