Chapter 563 The Reunion
"I think that number has now been reduced to the Four Major Clans, considering the Gemheart Clan's fate, but what about the Luminaris Clan? Weren't they the only ones to publicly support the Gemheart Clan and the reason why the Gemheart Clan was able to consolidate their power quickly?"
Various voices erupted from the crowds before they spread, causing the surroundings to buzz as numerous others voiced their thoughts.
Even the two- white-haired bangs, cloaked young women couldn't help but look surprised, stunned at what they had just heard.
The Crystalforge Clan had defeated the Gemheart Clan, and now the Gemheart Clan were being publicly executed!
Immediately, the image of a charming young man emerged into their minds, causing them to suddenly look at each other with the same stunned and emotional look in their eyes.
Suddenly, Crystalia's voice cut through the air, immediately silencing the crowds.
"Bring them forward!"
The Gemheart Clan suddenly appeared and were all led towards the stage by Seth and the others, alongside the Crystalforge elite warriors following behind. Seth grabbed Garnet and threw him toward the centre of the stage before raising his head and looking at the crowd before him with a frown.
From what he could see, the crowds before him numbered above a million, and if he were to give a proper estimate, they should be close to one and a half million at best.
However, considering that they all seemed weak, the frown on Seth's face eased up. He was worried that the population of the Prismerion race might be too much for the Village to handle, causing the Village to be outnumbered if a battle happened between the two.
However, just as Orion had said, they were weak, far weaker than he could say that a group of two-star warriors was enough to handle the people before him.
Meanwhile, only a group of three-star warriors was enough to handle the Five Major Clans and the rest of the smaller clans and families. In short, if the Prismerion race ever tried to go against the Village, it wouldn't even be called a battle but a one-sided massacre.
Nonetheless, he was sure that Orion had thought of this, which was why he had brought them along with him to demonstrate the strength of the Village and show the Prismerian Kingdom that, despite their numbers, the Village didn't need to spend much manpower to handle them in case they decide to have any odd ideas.
Slowly, a grin found its way to Seth's face.
'Humph, despite being so young, he's as smart as the key figures had said,' Seth thought, still remembering that Orion had only completed his graduation ceremony a month ago. Reflecting on it, Seth understood that Orion really had more potential than him, so he would have to work harder not to lose the Village Chief's position.
However, thinking about the battle between them yesterday, Seth internally frowned once more. He would have to try harder and find a way to ensure that Orion didn't inform the key figures about what had happened.
Meanwhile, Seth and the other warriors' appearance had aroused the suspicions of the citizens, especially since his short black hair was uncovered. Naturally, they had yet to be told about the individuals who had come from outside the mountain, so their thoughts didn't naturally shift to the idea that Seth and the others were foreigners.
They would be crazy to entertain such thoughts since it's been a very long time since, due to Naka's curse, they have all been trapped within this mountain, for a very long time, far longer than even their great-grandparents could remember. Regardless, that didn't stop them from trying to come up with an explanation for Seth and the others behind him.
Seeing the bloodied Garnet, who was now kneeling on the stage waiting to be executed, Crystalia was about to speak when her eyes picked up something at the corner of her eyes.
Bang!
A figure landed on the stage beside her.
"Mother! Orion!!" Crystalia exclaimed loudly as she swiftly arrived before her mother and hugged her tightly.
"You are okay," she added.
Selene nodded and reciprocated the gesture, wrapping her arms around her daughter while nodding her head in response. "Yes, I'm fine. And it's good to see that you are okay, too," she replied, calmly brushing her daughter's hair bangs.
After wiping away the tears from her eyes, Crystalia walked toward Orion and buried herself in his chest. Witnessing this scene, Selene could only smile before shifting her gaze toward the bloodied, kneeling figure of Garnet and the multitude of Prismerions in front of her.
She instantly understood what Orion intended to do.
Her lips curved into a vicious smile before her mood shifted once more as she turned her head and saw Elara, her son, and the rest of the Gemheart Clan kneeling, causing her to furrow her brows together.
Elara noticed Selene's arrival and sighed within her heart before bowing her head downwards, a sense of defeat covering her expression.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Gemheart Clan lowered their heads in shame and fear.
However, the citizens of the Prismerian Kingdom had a completely different reaction.
"The Queen has arrived!"
"Haa! It seems that today really marks the end of the Gemheart Clan. What a shame how one of the Five Major Clans has fallen."
"But who is that young man? Look at his hair. Why does he look the same as that strange-looking man and the others."
Two women with white hair bangs, in particular, couldn't help but stare at the stage, unmoving, stunned at the sight in front of them.
He's alive!!
Orion is alive!!
Nevertheless, the two wanted to scream from their current position at the top of their lungs and run towards the stage. However, after realizing the tension and delicacy of the current situation, they immediately stood their ground. They waited for all this to end so that they could reunite with their husband.
Regardless, their bodies trembled, their eyes never leaving his form, especially for Merida.
