906 New & Old Friends
Yes, as the days went by, everyone began to wonder when Landon would make an unpredictable grand entrance.
His majesty Landon didn't think like ordinary people did.
So if someone told them right now that Landon was descending the sky into the palace, they would believe it.
In fact, that was even going too far.
If someone also said that he came here through a magical underground tunnel from Baymard to Carona, they would believe it.
Hey, who knows, maybe he would pop out of the royal pond all dried up.
With him, anything was possible.
So they looked forward to his arrival.
Currently, King Carmelo, King Adrain, Santa, Duke Samuel( Penelope's uncle), King William, King Micheal, Prince Andrew (Lucia's brother) and Javis (Lucia's other brother)... were all gathered around in the hall talking merely while also watching everyone in around like crazy.
The whole wedding atmosphere had been so infectious, at the same time exciting.
And none of them had felt this much pumped, even those who were already married.
Typically, they weren't involved in the process, as their task was just to show up on the wedding day.
Of course, they would do their fitting with their tailors prior to the wedding, and that was it.
Even the women getting married weren't all that involved in the actual process; what they cared about was their makeup, jewelry on that day, clothes and so on.
The venue, the operations, how they wanted the place to look was nothing of concern for them.
Looking at the strict work ethics of those before them, as well as seeing the hall's transformation, everyone felt pumped.
They smiled and laid back in glee.
.
"I'll go!
Did you just see the same that passed by?
That's the biggest cake I've ever seen."
"Hmhm.
It's pretty impressive.
I think they'll put the cake in that vehicle that they say is like a deep freezer."
"Oh?
Speaking of cold things, I wonder how my bottle of wine is halfway gone?
Samuel! How many glasses have you taken?
Smelly boy!
I was wondering why you've been quiet all this time.
It turns out you dare to take your father's things!"
Duke Samuel looked at Adrian pitifully: "Father, we both know that Ozeki Sake wine is my best. So you won't mind, right?"
Adrian looked at his annoying son in disdain.
Where can a son compare to such godly wine?
Before them, were several dishes of food and chilled bottles of wine, beer, champagne, juice and so on.
There were so many options, but how could he have known that both his sons, Carmelo and Samuel, loved it more as well?
At least Carmelo was somewhat respectable and only took half a glass of it before focusing on other bottles... But his last son was just too much!
The hateful fellow kept filling his glass without a care in the world.
So how could he not be mad?
That was his favourite wine, alright?
Santa, Micheal, William and the rest chuckled in understanding.
They also had their favourite beverages too, which they wanted to enjoy to their satisfaction before it ran out.
Of course, they could always ask for another bottle of their favourite, but they felt like they shouldn't do so and keep as many bottles as possible for the wedding celebration.
Nonetheless, there was a variety of options before them, so they buried themselves in fun.
At the same time, they continued discussing other developing facts that happened over the year.
.
One should know that even though William and the rest were meeting each other for the first time, thanks to the Baymardian soldiers who also delivered messages back and forth speedily, many had written to each other before now.
And Micheal was very familiar with William since he was there when William stayed in Baymard for a while in Alec's big defeat.
As for the Zalipnians, even though communication was still new and somewhat difficult, things weren't that bad.
Why?
Well, for starters, they had a translator with them all the time.
And, they truly started to understand Pyron.
One should know that while in Baymard, they had someone teaching them daily, and Landon had requested that everyone should speak to them in Pyron 3 entire days a week to facilitate learning.
Because with humans, if one were thrown in a difficult situation, their minds would get stimulated to learn faster for survival.
That's why back on earth, some people could go to France, Germany, China and other places within a short period and pick up the language.
When forced, humans would improve.
Of course, the Zalipnians weren't experts now and could barely be called beginners.
They couldn't even write correctly in Pyron... but for some reason, they understand 50% of what was being said.
Just some high-level words were hard to explain.
That's why the gang decided to speak as simply as possible, making them understand and laugh as well.
The only thing was that their tries were terrible.
They would say something that didn't exactly make sense, but everyone could still understand what they were trying to say.
This feat alone made Adrian and the rest very impressed, and they all began wondering if they should also learn Roma as well.
.
Michael, who had stayed close to a year in Baymard, was actually at the beginner level of Roma.
What a joke!
People spoke difficult to him daily, and he felt like a moron for knowing only a single language.
If even children knew 2 or 3 languages, then where should he put his head?
That's why he studied it hard and would even have little conversations with the Zalipnians too.
He raised his lips and looked at Camelo proudly as if he won some prize.
"Old boy!
Just look at it. Finally, I'm better than you at something."
Carmelo was speechless.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Who made this muscle-head his long-time childhood friend?
Yes, they were far away, but they had always been friends.
It started as a joke when Micheal visited Carmelo when they were hungry and would also get angry that Carmelo was taller than him.
That's why he kept challenging him to fights.
And as expected, Micheal lost every single time till this date.
Forget about duelling; even his life was more blessed than Micheal, whose brother-in-law used to be Nopline.
In fact, Carmelo won at everything.
But now, there was something that he was good at.
He finally beat his long-time rival.
But Carmelo, who had never wanted to be his rival in the first place, shook his head helplessly.
Even still now, the muscle-head was still as childish as ever.
.
Everyone spoke and gisted along until finally, one of the soldiers walked towards them.
"Your majestic, your highnesses, we've just got word.
His majesty Landon Barn's party has arrived."
Everyone's eyes lit up excitedly.
Finally, the brat was here.
With that, they stood up excitedly and were about to go out and welcome him.
But before they could leave, the soldier who came in stopped them.
"Your majesty, your highnesses... His entourage is here, but it appears that he isn't."
"Eh?
Why?
Where is he?
Where did he go then?"
"He went for a stroll."
"Oh?
Where? What street is he in?"
The soldiers smiled awkwardly: "I'm afraid it's not a matter of streets. You see, he went for a stroll outside the city. Your majesty Landon took a stroll in the woods."
