Village Head's Debauchery

High King Eldric arrived before them and looked at each one, using his nature energy to scan them before exhaling in relief upon seeing that all of them were present and well.

He also noticed the strange oppressive energy emanating from Prince Alden and Princess Morgana, which seemed similar to the one that lingered around Orion. He immediately understood that they had successfully obtained the Divine artefacts.

"HAHHAHAHA!!" High King Eldric immediately roared out in laughter before calming down after a few seconds.

"Come forward, let me embrace such wonderful children of mine," he added.

Prince Alden and Princess Morgana stepped forward and were immediately enveloped by his arms as he hugged them tightly.

"The Divine artefacts of god Aerendir have finally returned to the Pixie race!" High King Eldric exclaimed loudly.

As he roared excitedly, some of the High elders and elders behind him couldn't help but smile happily at the incredible results. Meanwhile, the others frowned when they noticed that Fourth Prince Kael was one of the few who had obtained the Divine artefact.

Among all of High King Eldric's children, he was the only one with the lowest prestige, which had only worsened, especially after his recent actions. They couldn't understand how Aegis of the Arctic Deity had picked him as the next inheritor of the Divine artefact.

Prince Alden had already noticed some of the High elders and elders casting hostile gazes at him, but he didn't bother, as he had already made his own plans.

Nevertheless, now that his father had finally calmed down, he asked the question that had lingered on everybody's mind since they arrived, "Father, what is going on with the sky? Why is it so darkened? Has something happened?"

Upon hearing his fourth son's question, High King Eldric exhaled loudly, "We received news from Warrior Iris informing us that the darkened sky is a result of a Vylkr vine phenomenon, which emerges from burning the Vylkr vines. Fortunately, the Vylkr phenomenon appears to be unable to break through Aegis of the Arctic Deity's divine barrier, so we are safe," he responded.

At the mention of the Vylkr vines, Prince Alden, Princess Morgana, Prince Bran, Princess Kelani, and the others widened their eyes in response.

They all gradually raised their heads to look at the darkened sky again, their hearts pounding. They took anything related to the Vylkr vines very seriously.

However, after hearing that none of it could penetrate Aegis of the Arctic Deity's divine barrier, they immediately felt a sense of relief. Having experienced a glimpse of Aegis of the Arctic Deity's powers, they had absolute faith in it.

After hearing his words, his children became less worried. High King Eldric said, "Let's return to the castle; we might not have the chance to celebrate throughout the kingdom, but we can host a feast and invite every important figure to the castle to join in the celebration."

They all snapped out of their thoughts and nodded in agreement with High King Eldric's plan.

"Father, there is something I would like to discuss with you first," Prince Alden suddenly interjected.

High King Eldric, preparing to lead his children back to the canopy castle, paused when he heard his son's words. "What is it?" he asked, noting his fourth son's serious expression.

The other princes and princesses, along with the high elders and elders, also halted their movements, curious about what the Fourth Prince wanted to say.

"Father, I would like to offer this Divine Artefact to my senior brother, High Prince Kael," Prince Alden said solemnly, summoning the Divine Threads of Aerendir. The Divine Threads of Aerendir materialized out of thin air and floated around him, their bright hue illuminating his surroundings.

Hearing Prince Alden's words, High King Eldric and the others looked at the divine threads with dazed expressions.

"Did I hear you correctly?" High King Eldric asked, his voice trembling as he stared at Prince Alden in disbelief.

Prince Alden nodded solemnly. "First, elder brother is in his current condition because he tried to save me, and because of that, he couldn't make it here today. I believe that if First elder brother were here, he would have successfully obtained the divine artefacts himself. So, I think it's only proper I give this to him because he rightfully deserves it, as gratitude for risking his life for mine," he responded firmly.

High Prince Kael already knew that he was the one who had framed him, lying about his secret lover being in danger and forcing him to leave the castle during High King Eldric and Orion's meeting. Yet, High Prince Kael forgave him for his actions and risked his life to save him.

How could he happily hold on to the Divine artefact, especially after everything that had transpired?

In fact, this was one of the main reasons he had tried his best to obtain one of god Aerendir's divine artefacts. So, he wasn't too upset about giving it up, regardless of the fact that it was a Divine artefact.

Second, Prince Bran clenched his fist in anger upon hearing Prince Alden's words.

He wants to give the Divine artefact away!

That bastard wants to hand it over after everything we've gone through to obtain it!

Some of the high elders and elders, who were displeased with Prince Alden possessing one of god Aerendir's divine artefacts, were dumbfounded upon hearing his words. They couldn't fathom anyone in their right mind giving up a Divine artefact they had obtained.

Nonetheless, a bright smile spread as they agreed with Prince Alden's decision.

"If the Fourth Prince wishes to hand over the Divine artefact to the High Prince for such a reason, then I don't see any reason to refuse such a request," one of the High elders said, his voice echoing throughout their surroundings.

"I agree. In fact, if the Fourth Prince gives the Divine artefact to High Prince Kael, any false accusations or crimes against him must be completely forgotten. He might even gain enough prestige almost comparable to High Prince Kael himself," added another elder.
