Chapter 518: The Grand Banquet

Inside the ballroom at the royal palace, nobles and aristocrats engaged in conversation. This event was a rare opportunity to become acquainted with peers from other nations and to forge beneficial relationships. 

The nobles of this kingdom could not afford to miss such an occasion. It was not merely a banquet celebrating the successful expedition to the Forest of Never Return; it was also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity orchestrated by King Richard to elevate the kingdom's reputation and influence across other nations.

Suddenly, a blonde-haired woman entered the ballroom, accompanied by two guards wearing golden armor emblazoned with the insignia of a lion's head, a spear, and a sword crossed behind it. 

The woman's flawless beauty immediately captured the attention of the assembled nobles and aristocrats, particularly the younger generation, who found it difficult to resist her charm.
