Chapter 30: The Revelation
POV:Daniel
In the heart of Daemon City, City Lord,Daniel Daemon sat in his opulent chambers, overseeing the affairs of the city with an air of authority. He was respected and admired by the people he governed, but even he couldn't help but feel a tinge of excitement and trepidation upon hearing the news of Princess Lilith's arrival from the guards at the entrance of the city.
When the guards burst into his chambers with their faces filled with awe and excitement, Daniel Daemon couldn't help but sit up from his chair, intrigued by their urgent report. "What is it?" he asked, his voice calm yet eager.
"We saw the princess, my lord," one of the guards exclaimed, his voice trembling with a mix of reverence and exhilaration. "Her presence was unlike anything we've ever witnessed. And the man beside her, he was extraordinary as well."
Daniel's curiosity was piqued. Princess Lilith's name was known throughout the realm of Anuria, and her visit to Daemon City was an unprecedented event. He was well aware of her influence and the power she held as the princess of the powerful Golden Dragon Kingdom.
"Tell me everything you saw," Daniel urged, leaning forward in his chair.
The guard who reported the encounter stepped forward, his excitement evident in his voice. "We saw a crowd of people gathered, and upon investigating, we found a man on the ground, crying and trembling, while apologizing and screaming for help," he explained. "We wanted to intervene, but then we saw the woman with the golden dragon emblem."
Daniel's eyes widened at the mention of the golden dragon emblem. The symbol held immense significance, representing the authority and power of the Golden Dragon Kingdom. It was not to be taken lightly.
"She raised a card bearing the emblem, and it was as if a divine aura surrounded her," the guard continued, awe in his voice. "We couldn't help but bow in her presence. We got the feeling that she did not want her identity exposed, so we refrained from addressing her as the princess."
Daniel nodded, absorbing the gravity of the situation. Princess Lilith's wish for anonymity was to be respected, and he understood the delicacy of the circumstances.
"Inform all the noble families in the city that the princess is here," Daniel commanded, "and distribute her portrait. Advise them not to offend her and to treat her with the utmost respect."
The guard then went on to describe the appearance of the man who accompanied Princess Lilith, detailing Alex's unique features.
"Maybe he's her servant or an important figure from her kingdom," Daniel speculated aloud, his mind racing with possibilities. "Ensure a portrait of him is made as well, and instruct the heads of the noble families not to offend him either. We must show them the proper courtesy they deserve."
As the guards left to carry out their orders, Daniel's thoughts swirled with a mix of excitement and responsibility. The arrival of Princess Lilith and her companion, Alex, in Daemon City was an event that would shape the city's future and perhaps even the entire realm of Anuria. With this newfound knowledge, Daniel Daemon knew that he needed to ensure their visit was met with the utmost hospitality and respect, for their presence held the promise of great change and adventure.

Meanwhile, in another corner of Daemon City, Alex continued to explore the vibrant streets with Lilith at his side. He couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur of the city, its towering structures and bustling markets a stark contrast to the tranquility of Valeria.
"What was that card you showed the guards?" Alex finally asked, unable to contain his curiosity any longer.
Lilith glanced at him with a mischievous smile. "A secret," she replied cryptically.
Alex chuckled, realizing that she had no intention of revealing the card's true nature. He respected her privacy and chose not to press further.
As they wandered through the city, Lilith seemed to know her way around as if she had been there many times before. She interacted with the people, listening to their concerns and offering comforting words where needed. Her genuine kindness and concern for the city's residents only heightened Alex's admiration for her.
As the day waned, Alex and Lilith found themselves at a peaceful garden within the city. They took a moment to rest on a stone bench beneath the shade of a blossoming tree. Alex's mind was still filled with questions about the golden dragon emblem and its significance, but he knew Lilith's answer would remain elusive.
"I have never been to a place like this," Alex admitted, looking around the beautiful garden. "It's enchanting."
Lilith's eyes softened, and she nodded in agreement. "Daemon City holds many wonders," she said, her voice carrying a touch of melancholy. "But it also conceals its share of mysteries."
Alex understood that Lilith's life was far from ordinary, and there were aspects of her existence that she chose not to share. Instead of prying, he decided to focus on the present moment, cherishing the time he spent with this extraordinary princess.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the garden, Alex and Lilith continued their exploration of Daemon City, their hearts alight with the promise of adventure and the intrigue of the unknown. They walked side by side, each step drawing them closer to the secrets that lay hidden within the enigmatic realm of Eldoria.
