Both the host and the guest were happy. Little Lelouch, who was in the nanny's embrace, was also very happy. The power of faith he absorbed here was purer and denser than what he absorbed in nature. Whether it was intentional or not, these people were filled with respect or love for him. This emotion was directly reflected in their brains, causing the consciousness waves they emitted to be directly absorbed by Lelouch, who was close at hand.
Gaia's curse seemed to have been offset by quite a bit at this moment. It made Lelouch feel a rare sense of relaxation.
Moreover, from the conversations of the guests around him, Lelouch could sense that the power of faith provided by the old man named Ashford was much purer and greater than others.
People in high positions like this were originally important tools used by those in power to control their subjects. Therefore, as the King of Humans, Lelouch could subconsciously feel that Duke Ashford was of great help to him.
Since that was the case, it was not impossible for him to feel the majesty of the king and offer his loyalty.
Therefore, after Mariana and Lelouch received the congratulations of all the guests, Archduke Ashford brought his eldest son and one-year-old granddaughter to the audience. Lelouch, who was in Cornelia's arms, took the initiative to extend his cute little hands to Archduke Ashford. His deep violet pupils also released a strong spiritual force field that enveloped the entire banquet.
Lelouch wanted to make use of this opportunity to firmly engrave his figure in the depths of the souls of these guests who had considerable power. As long as they were still humans, they would instinctively revere Lelouch when they felt the majesty of the Human King.
Just like how an ordinary ant would never disobey the queen ant's order, this was an instinct that was engraved in their souls and bodies.
The atmosphere in the noisy banquet suddenly froze. Although all the guests were still talking, their gazes could not help but look at Lelouch in the center. There, the King's brand was releasing a strong spiritual force field, awakening the reverence in their souls for the King.
At the same time, the huge human consciousness fusion body in C World seemed to have sensed something and started shaking violently. A strange spiritual wave was emitted from the excavated temple gates, radiating to the entire world and conveying the existence of the king to the souls of every human.
"King!"
"King!"
"King!"
The humans who had died in the apocalypse, the indignant roars that transcended time and space, were finally freed after sensing the soul imprints of the humans who still existed in this world.
They knew that the king had finally succeeded! He had come to the past, to the past where mankind had not yet perished. And history would truly take a different path from the beginning.
The indignant roars gradually died down, and new lives were jumping for joy. From this moment on, the history of mankind's destruction in the future finally disappeared completely. Everything that happened there, the lives that died, other than the mark of the Human King in the depths of Lelouch's soul, there was no trace left behind.
Because the law of karma was reversed at this moment. The cause had not yet been produced, so how could it have the "effect" of the extinction of mankind?
At this moment, at the one-month-old banquet in the Empire Hotel, everyone, except for Mariana and Cornelia, looked at Lelouch with respect and respect for the ruler of mankind.
Although this period of time was still very short, as Lelouch grew and the King matured, these people would completely become his followers. They would only exist for the King's orders, the King's desires, and the King's existence.
"It seems that Lelouch also likes Archduke Ashford!”
Although Mariana wasn't affected by King Lelouch's Brand, she could feel the change in the atmosphere at the banquet. Sensing the strange gazes that everyone was looking at Lelouch with, Mariana did not realize the meaning behind them. She just felt a little strange.
What was going on? The way these people looked at Lelouch seemed to have changed.
It was a little strange that one of them had changed. Everyone, including Archduke Ashford's family, looked at Lelouch with the same gaze, which was very unusual.
(Oh no, I've aroused Mariana's suspicion!）
Because of what happened in the laboratory, Lelouch did not recognize Mariana as his mother. In his heart, he called Mariana by her name. Cornelia was still fine. She was too young to distinguish the strange gazes that came from all directions, nor did she discover the deep meaning behind them. However, Mariana was not that easy to fool.
Although Lelouch already had a consciousness that was completely inconsistent with his age and his intelligence was not low, he had only been born not long ago after all. He did not know the ways of the world and all kinds of schemes. However, those guests were all veterans in politics. Some of them might not be as smart as Mariana, but they had many other tricks up their sleeves.
Sensing the king's anxiety, a few nobles who didn't look like good people whispered to each other in just the right voices.
"Look, Archduke Ashford and his son are bringing their one-year-old granddaughter over!”
"I heard that her name is Mi Lei!"
"Could it be that you want to set up a marriage agreement with Prince Lelouch?”
"It's not impossible. The Ashford family is no longer the financial group they were in the past!”
The words of the nobles spread. Although the other guests didn't know why the more they looked at Lelouch, the more respectful and respectful they felt, they quickly shifted their gazes and looked at the one-year-old little girl Ashford was holding. They said similar things.
"She's a beauty!"
"But are you worthy of Prince Lelouch?”
"At most, she's just a concubine!"
"Yes, I also think that if we set up an engagement, Milei can only be a concubine!”
So it was like this!
Hearing the whispers around her, Mariana came to a realization and looked at the little girl who had just learned how to walk beside Archduke Ashford.
Was she called Miley? She was indeed very cute!
"Princess Mariana (x3!）”
Archduke Ashford, along with his son and daughter-in-law, bowed to Mariana. The three of them looked a little unnatural, as if their plans had been revealed by others.
A prince's marriage had to be reported to the emperor and approved before the engagement could be made. They might be able to make a verbal engagement with Mariana for Lelouch and Millay, but at most, they would only become Lelouch's concubines in the future. They would not be recorded in the royal family's genealogy.
In layman's terms, she was a mistress!
Of course, with the Ashford Family's status and Mariana's relationship, the possibility of the Emperor agreeing was very high. Therefore, it wasn't strange for Archduke Ashford to have such an idea.
Of course, Mariana would never have thought that Archduke Ashford had only wanted to bring his granddaughter here to get to know Princess Mariana and Princess Cornelia.
"Millay Ashford greets Her Highness Princess Mariana, Princess Corelia, and Her Highness Lelouch!”
Xiao Milei, who had just learned how to walk, lifted her beautiful pleated skirt and bent her calves, performing an extremely cute etiquette.
"What a cute girl, so polite!”
Corelia, who was holding Lelouch, saw Millay's action. Her eyes lit up and she squatted down gently, turning Lelouch's face to Millay.
"Look, Lelouch, you like this big sister. Do you want her to be your bride?”
"Hehe…bride! Hehehe…bride!"
"As expected, Lelouch likes it very much too!"
It was originally just a joke, but when she heard Lelouch say that word again, she still felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at the cute Millay with jealousy and became even more determined.
She would become a powerful and outstanding woman like Lady Mariana, and then become Lelouch's right-hand man, helping him become the new emperor and expand his territory, just like the relationship between Lady Mariana and his father.
As if she had sensed the fleeting jealousy in her eyes, Millay looked at her timidly. A child's temperament was very simple. It was easy for him to sense other people's emotions. However, her fear quickly disappeared the moment she saw Lelouch.
Little Millet looked at Lelouch's mysterious violet eyes. It was as if her body and soul were about to be sucked in. Her gaze was tightly intertwined with Lelouch's.
" Your Highness…Lelouch!"
"Looks like these two little fellows seem to like each other very much!”
Mariana said happily as she looked at the two little guys who were flirting.
"That's right, Princess Mariana. May I ask if our Little Millet has the honor of becoming Prince Lelouch's reserve princess?”
Seeing that Lelouch and his granddaughter seemed to really have a connection, and that Princess Mariana's tone did not seem to have any intention of refusing, Archduke Ashford took the opportunity to propose a marriage.
"Of course, the Ashford family has always been my most advantageous backing and an important pillar of the empire. I think His Majesty will agree!”
Mariana had already guessed that Ashford would say this, so she naturally agreed. At the same time, she smiled and called out to Lelouch. With Lelouch's unusual behavior and his performance in Aries, Mariana believed that her son could barely understand what they were saying.
"Lelouch, did you hear that? From now on, Millay is your fiancée! Are you happy to have such a cute fiancée?”
"Hehehe…"
Lelouch answered Mariana with a laugh, but he turned his head to his mother's side, causing Millay, who was looking away, to lower her head in disappointment. The feeling of their gazes intertwining just now gave Miley a very strange feeling.
This feeling made her, who was still young, very infatuated.
"Lelouch is indeed very satisfied!"
Mariana took Lelouch from Cornelia's arms and turned his face to Archduke Ashford as she said with a smile. Although it was not very formal, Archduke Ashford could still be considered half an elder of Lelouch. Naturally, he had to let them meet formally.
However, when she carried Lelouch away from Cornelia's arms, Cornelia's expression became the same as Millay's. She lowered her head in disappointment. Caught in the same situation, both of them seemed to sense each other's emotions and secretly glanced at each other.
Their gazes met at the same time. At this moment, Cornelia and Millay noticed that their eyes were both light blue. At this moment, the two girls of different identities and ages had a feeling of mutual affection.
Mariana, who was teasing Lelouch, noticed the strange reactions of the two girls next to her and couldn't help but laugh.
These two outstanding girls actually showed such expressions for the sake of Lelouch, who was just a one-month-old baby. It was really interesting! Unfortunately, whatever you do is useless.
The only person who can become Lelouch's wife is my future daughter. You might be good, but compared to Lelouch's potential, you are far from it. But don't worry, I'll leave you with a glimmer of hope.
After all, if I could find more brides for Lelouch, I could give birth to more " carriers " to serve as samples for my experiments and adjustments. To provide more complete and reasonable data for the children of Lelouch and his sister, and to obtain the most perfect carrier for the CODE adaptability.
