"Now that the formalities are out of the way, shall we get started with the events planned for today?" Julius inquired to the crowd, receiving a resounding cheer of accepting noises.
At this moment, Lyrian noticed that the food began to get loaded onto the trollies. Soon enough, the maids were pushing the trollies to the different tables.
'Finally!' He rejoiced inwardly. He was already feeling a bit odd in his stomach, near where his core was. He imagined this to be because he had no food in a while.
After the event in the Ancient Library and all that, Lyrian knew that his body had taken quite a toll. He wanted to get food as fast as possible but also wanted to wait till he could eat the delicious delicacies served at the banquet.
Finally, his waiting had paid off. While he waited in anticipation for his food to eventually come, Julius continued his speech.
