Chapter 146: The Ceremony (2)

The city of thousands of flowers was busy since the morning. Not only commoners, but nobles couldn't wait for the notified hour to arrive.

Only the chosen ones, mostly older males, were able to see soon-to-count Einar before. He appeared at regular royal court meetings but hardly said a word. He only sat there and didn't comment on anything, not even the military discussion. And as soon as the assembly ended, he mysteriously disappeared.

The ceremony most the perfect opportunity to exchange at least names. Then, later at the ball, they can engage in more deep conversation. Everyone was hungry for the new nobles, not only did he have a reputation, good looks, and power, but most importantly – the rumours said his treasury was even fuller than the royal's vault, making him to be a desirable contact for those wishing to connect via business.
