Precognition.

—— —— —— — ——— — —— —– –——— "Hmm, Guido, can you confirm with your life that everything he said was true?" "Although I didn't contribute much directly to his life experiences, I concur with all he had said." "And what means can you somehow convince me that everything he had said is true." "This... there are some trinkets that he brought from his ventures, they are here with me. First is the buried lance, this weapon got its name from —" My eyes were in the Questionnaire this whole time. This Human Woman had made me suffer a huge loss that just couldn't seat back well with me. Added to the fact that she blatantly siphoned every last drop of my powers, a blood feud had been formed between the two of us. So it took me by surprise when I first came in and saw her speaking loudly with life on her cheeks. She should have been injured seriously before, How is she still even moving? Guido was still busy taking out trinkets from his 'storage ring'. ‘Look how my precognition saved my arse yet again. The other time was before I was dozed with acid.’ Storage rings were artifacts special devices that could take the essence of the Void and expand a hidden compartment in the ring to unimaginable length. The hidden compartment in the ring is in form of a circular carving Like a concave rift running through the ring. This special ride could expand to unimaginable length. Though this depends on the materials used to make it. The costlier the material is, the more efficient. I gave him some random equipment I had on me before we came here. I just told him they could fetch a lot of sold on the black market and he grabbed them like they were his long lost treasures. That was why he looked like he was on hot coal when he was asked to bring it out. If the Queen likes one of them, he had no right to refuse. ‘ He deserved to be called a dragon descendant. Though a very fugly one.‘ "Fine. I've seen enough, you two can go to your designated seat. I'll still reconfirm the validity of your story boy. " I thought angrily 'You are too skeptical. As if you married a cheating husband... Then see a lipstick on his shirt one last night. I haven't even said anything wrong.’ I held myself the last minute of voicing my thoughts and only ended the speech in a light grumble. “Guido, don't forget to pass one or two of those treasures. I'll like to ascertain their validity” Guido stumbled with helplessness. ‘Don't me for more. I'm not sharing my treasures!’ Few minutes after we sat down, Old queen Gipsy suddenly stood up and linked her glass. "Since we are all here, without further Ado, let' the Marriage Selection Start!" — — — ———— GIPSY ———— "Let the marriage selection start. First, we feast for today. Rooms would be prepared for all the people that meet the criteria. " I spoke solemnly to everyone in the room. Just like how the previous generation, my mother did. And the one before her. Only that it was me now, giving away my daughter. "Am I that old?" I whisper to myself. "Mother, you shouldn't stress yourself you know. Hurry and recuperate. You know the people still need you as emotional support." "You are brilliant Clover. But it's the main reason why I have to stand out in any chance I get. Because they'll have this bit of confidence when they see me still healthy enough and kicking. There's no need to worry dear, immediately after here am going into long seclusion." With Clover raising her cup to toast the occasion and other stuff my heart wasn't in, the feast started and noise immediately enveloped the grand hall. "So tell me Clover, who do you see?" "What do you mean Mom?" Like every other girl, she suddenly gave a blank look while trying her best not to let a hint of blush appear on her cheeks. ‘Cutie! I-I'll kill any man that have his way with you. Your husband would only be a decoration around you. How dare he hold your hand!!’ "Cut it out. I had already noticed your eyes darting around and making several choices. I just want to know how they rate in your eyes." "Right... So High Lord Chase and Sir Liam came! With the two of them here, then it's like most options have suddenly become cloudy. So for my top two, it'll be them. The next would be Baron Stan, Before Ace of the Ice lands, King of the Seven colored Castle, Viscount Sheen and Rudeus." My eyes narrowed unconsciously in anger. "Oho? Why would you call him? I know he's just an illegitimate son of a bastard father. You shouldn't indulge yourself in some much fantasy okay? And he isn't as handsome as others. He has nothing much compared with the others. Why do you care?. For one, he could only have such a gift while being barely able to sense mana" "I know Mom. But look at him, he has so much confidence and even a hint of arrogance in everything he does. Only a Master that is unrivaled in his generation can be this way. And did you not remember when he talked about having a Master? If my guess is right, his Master should be just below you, and the reason no one knows him is that he is a Hermit that only resides in the mountain ridges. Cut off from all mortal business and only trying to discern the Dao" ‘I doubt child. He might just be ignorant of the rankings of real masters. I'll do a background check on him to know how strong his master is. Maybe invite him for a drink something. I've met every strong being there is on E-arth. That master of his might is a threat to my kingdom if he is strong as the boy mentioned.’
