Guild Leader Loki's question was like a bucket of cold water pouring from the heads of those daring Nobles. What's, even more, worst was, this bucket of cold water was definitely not just any ordinary cold water, but rather something casted by a 9-Star Mage who is extremely proficient in using Ice Element Magic spells.

The reason for that is because this proclamation of Guild Leader Loki was a hundred times more shocking compared to the unexpected presence of Ethan and the others just now. 

Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, Ash, and Charlotte, all of these six women have a beauty that both the princesses of the Evergreen royal family can hardly compare to. In short, they far surpassed both of them. Yet, it turns out that they are all actually Guild Leader Loki's wives?!!!

This was really beyond unexpected for all of them. Even if Cassandra and the others were indeed in a relationship with Guild Leader Loki, they at most merely believed that they are his women, not literally his wives yet, hence why they thought that they still have a chance to snatch them away from him. 

Of course, that wasn't the main reason why they are really shocked. After all, as long as they are willing to search for a beautiful woman, then it is undoubtedly possible for them to also find women as beautiful as Cassandra and the others, though the big question still remains whether those beautiful women would willingly become their wives. Anyways, what really made them react in such a way was rather the fact that Charlotte, who is known by everyone to have 9-Star level cultivation, is also one of Loki's women. 

This was, in all sense, really unbelievable, especially considering the unimaginable gap of cultivation level between the two of them. 

One is merely an intermediate 1-Star Mage, while the other one is only a single step away from finally breaking through to the cultivation level that the majority of Mages in the entire Celestial World dreamed of reaching, the Galaxy-level. 

Even if they consider the status of Loki as the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild, this would still not be enough to answer their questions why Charlotte had chosen to become Guild Leader Loki's wife. In fact, even if they assumed that he has a far more formidable secret status compared to the current one they already knew about, they'd still strongly believe that it wouldn't be enough to make a woman with 9-Star level cultivation willingly become his wife, and not just any ordinary wife, but merely one of his wives!

If they didn't saw this with their very own eyes, then they'd definitely not believe it, even if not believing this would mean their own deaths!

In their opinion, people with such a powerful cultivation level would absolutely not settle for less. So, it is truly a big question for all of them just how on Celestial World did Guild Leader Loki achieve such an unimaginable feat?!

Aside from feeling shocked and curious, they also can't help but feel jealous, envious, resentment, bitterness, and insecurity towards Guild Leader Loki, this includes the majority of the men inside the ballroom right now.

But unlike them, all the women were instead paying more attention towards Cassandra and the others who were all announced by Guild Leader Loki as his wives. 

Men would only believe what they see with their very own eyes, or at most, assumed a bit further depending on the given factors for them to consider, but women, on the other hand, would directly conclude those things to be the truth and facts.

That's why, all the women in the ballroom right now believed that Guild Leader Loki's status is not merely the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild, but rather something even more formidable than that, like the crown prince of a Human race Empire, the Heir of a powerful organization comparable to the Elves Secret organization, or the most formidable status that they could possibly think about, a higher-ranking disciple of a powerful Sect!

Regardless of what Guild Leader Loki's real status is though, there is only one thing for certain, Cassandra and the others hit the jackpot! 

As of this very moment, the whole atmosphere of the entire ballroom had become 'Every man wants to become Leo, while every woman wants to become his woman'!

Watching this kind of scene unfold, Leo felt a bit strange deep inside of him. In his opinion, this kind of situation right now shouldn't be how things would turn out to be. 

What he expected just a while ago was these daring Nobles would without a doubt think of him as an arrogant bastard, causing them to all fumed with anger and rage towards him. 

Just how on Celestial World did it suddenly turned into men wanting to be him, while women wanted to be Cassandra and the others?!

Is there perhaps something wrong with their heads?! Probably like a loose screw or similar to that? They should be causing him a lot of trouble right now, not feeling those kinds of strange and weird emotions! Or... is it actually him who misunderstood and overreacted their likely reaction from the very beginning?

Amidst Leo's confusion, the host of tonight's ball, the Evergreen royal family, finally arrived! 

Seemingly in an instant, everyone put Leo's matter aside as they all turned their attentions towards King Elfin the Fourth and his family. 

It wasn't only them who reacted in such a way, Leo and everyone on his side also did the same instantly. 

Leo's haughty expression just now immediately turned to look humble in the presence of Uncle Elfin, Aunt Tina, Brother Elfin the Fifth, Brother Elmore, Brother Elmont, Sister Tifa, and Sister Tila. 

"Thank you everyone for attending the ball tonight!" Uncle Elfin expressed his appreciation first, before quickly changing to speaking about pleasantries and other useless stuff, such as how successful the Emerald Event was, the reason for choosing the theme 'Fiery Inferno' for tonight's ball, and the surprise he had prepared that everyone inside the ballroom right now practically already knows about, "Before we begin tonight's ball, let me all show to you the surprise that I have prepared for everyone!"

Crgggggggggg! 

Under everyone's astounded expression on their faces, the red-colored chandelier above them suddenly divided into a few pieces as the roof of the ballroom slowly opened similar to how a flower blooms when it matures. 

Then, amidst the darkness of the night sky and the flickering lights of the small stars, flying lanterns could be seen slowly flying above everyone's heads as if they were tinny tiny fireflies heading towards the bright moon. 

Although everyone already long expected that there would be a flying lantern show in tonight's ball, as they have seen a lot of citizens of the Emerald City along the way walking towards the direction of the lake around the Evergreen royal family's castle while holding flying lanterns on their hands, they still felt mesmerized and admiration when the show finally began. 

Countless flying lanterns flew up the night sky with their orange-colored light continuously blinking and illuminating the darkness while slowly reaching higher and higher. 

The beauty of the scene in front of everyone was one of the most wonderful scenes they have ever watched in their entire lifetime. 

However, just like how every beautiful thing is not meant to last, the flying lanterns started fading away in the void above after a considerable amount of time passes, until they all eventually disappeared from everyone's sight.

As for where exactly those flying lanterns are going towards, everyone could already guess that they would certainly all fall down once there is no longer any fire or if the wind blows them away towards a specific direction, Thus landing on either the lake around the Evergreen royal family's castle or the surrounding nearby land. 

Despite knowing all of that information though, they still can't stop their curiosity and desire to know that maybe those flying lanterns would actually reach a place much higher than the clouds up the sky, like for example, reach the rumored Heaven Realm where the Gods of the Celestial World was said to live at. 

All of a sudden, everyone's thoughts were quickly interrupted as the ceiling of the ballroom slowly retracted down and finally returned back to normal once again. 

However, before everyone could turn around and face King Elfin the Fourth and his family again, the ceiling unexpectedly turned into glass, allowing everyone to see the night sky one more time. 

That wasn't yet the end, because as the light of the moon in the sky shone upon the red-colored chandelier above everyone's head, it instantly reflected a fiery and inferno sort of atmosphere in the entire ballroom alongside the compliment of the surrounding decorations of the place, finally revealing to all of them the mark of the beginning of the ball!

Afterward, the choirs and their instruments by the side, who have all been remaining silent from the very beginning, finally began enriching the ballroom with music that completely fit the current mood of the place. 

With a bright smile on his face, King Elfin the Fourth announced, "To not make my speech much longer than what it should be; let me announced to everyone this year's theme of the ball, 'Fiery Inferno'!" 

As soon as Uncle Elfin's sentence finished, loud clapping sound and cheers from everyone right after sounded, drowning the entire room along with the beautiful musical accompaniment.
