Chapter 215 Saint Natalie

With all eyes focused on him, the King, Alexander, smiled, "Everyone, I thank you all for coming here tonight."

"Because tonight is very important for me, for us all, people of the Leonel Kingdom!"

When Alexander said that, every noble inside the hall had a solemn look.

Alexander continued, "Today, our kingdom celebrates its 219th anniversary since its foundation."

"A lot of disaster, conflict, wars, and many more hardships went through our kingdom."

"But in spite of that, we are all still standing, protecting our home against those who want to harm it."

"And here we are, celebrating another year of the founding of our home."

"For that, I once again, thank you all."

Dignity seems to exude out of Alexander at this moment.

Like a pillar of light that will support everyone even if the sky falls down.

Seeing that, Nathan nodded his head.

Now, he understands why all the people here are looking at Alexander with so much respect.

"He looks like a really good king."

Hearing his words, Margaux who's been looking at the King, her own father, with awe, suddenly puffed her small chest and proudly said,

"Of course, Father is the 7th Generation King of Leonel and the people also call him the Greatest King since the founding of our country!"

Nathan only smiled at Margaux before turning his eyes back at the King.

At this time, the tone of Alexander's speech changed.

"Besides celebrating the anniversary of our kingdom, there is another reason why I invited everyone to today's gathering."

Replacing his earlier dignified smile, Alexander now has a solemn mood as he said those words.

He scanned the face of each guests in the hall and continued,

"As some of you might have known, a lot of things have been going on in the past few years such as the Storming Empire's continuous attempt of invading us as well as the sudden increase in the number of monsters in the Great Forest."

Alexander shook his head with a gloomy face.

After a few seconds, Alexander lifted his face up and looked at the guest with fire in his eyes.

He said, "However, God has not forsaken us!"

His powerful voice echoed inside the whole place.

As if infected by his voice, the surrounding guests also felt some excitement in their heart at this time.

From the looks of it, most of the guests already know what Alexander is going to talk about.

They weren't able to hide the expectant look in their eyes at this moment.

Seeing this reaction from the other nobles, Alexander didn't delay anymore and continued.

Full of vigor, Alexander said, "God has blessed our kingdom with a person who sees the future, a child of God, a saint!"

"Tonight, let's welcome the one who will guide our country, no, our world into a greater future!"

"Saint Natalie!"

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The loud sound of applause sounded inside the hall as all eyes turned to Nathan's group table, becoming the focus of everyone here.

Hearing the words of Alexander, Nathan was surprised and hurriedly turned his head to look at Natalie.

'What? A Saint?'

Then Nathan saw Natalie gracefully stood up from her seat and looked at everyone with a bright and gentle smile.

The applause seems to have intensified as Natalie did all that.

You can even see people looking at her with reverent eyes, hands clasped together as if praying to her.

For a while, Nathan continued watching Natalie without saying any word until she finally sat back down.

Leaning towards her, with a teasing tone, Nathan whispered, "So, now you're acting as a saint in your own novel, huh."

Natalie chuckled and looked at Nathan.

"Brother, just like you said, this is my own novel. Doesn't that mean that I am the 'God' of this world? Acting as a saint is already lowering my identity." She said,

Nathan also chuckled when he heard her words.

Seeing them whispering and laughing on their own, Margaux who's sitting on the same table as the two of them said,

"Brother Nathan, Sister Natalie, you two have been whispering and laughing with each other, won't you let me join your conversation?"

The two stopped talking and turned their eyes to Margaux.

Natalie moved closer to Margaux and said, "I told you before that brother didn't know that I'm a saint, right?".

Margaux nodded.

"Yes, you did say that."

"That's what we were talking about." Natalie said, chuckling a little, "Brother was surprised when he heard the King's words earlier."

Margaux has a look of realization on face.

Then she tilted her head a little, she asked, "You didn't tell him the purpose of tonight's party?"

Natalie shook her head.

Hearing their conversation, Nathan suddenly said, "So from the beginning this party was to introduce Natalie's position in the Kingdom of Leonel?"

When Margaux confirmed his words, Nathan turned his eyes at Natalie with an exasperated look.

"This cheeky girl." He muttered followed by a helpless sigh.

…

After speaking for a while more in front, the King, Alexander finally announced the start of the party.

Music started playing across the hall.

People continued chatting with each other with glasses of wine in their hands, laughing here and there.

The topic of the conversation of most of them is about the newly introduced saint, Natalie.

"Saint Natalie is really a beautiful woman, don't you think?"

"Yes, she is already a beautiful woman but she still has the power of a saint."

"Hmm, I heard that Saint Natalie has actually given a prophecy to the kingdom not long ago."

"I also heard that, I just don't know what the prophecy entails."

"..."

….

Nathan went to the balcony where there were no people and looked at the bright full moon up in the sky.

Since he doesn't know anyone here beside Natalie and Margaux, Nathan felt a little bored.

"Hais, I should not have come. I bet Natalie doesn't even need my protection."

Nathan sighed.

At this time, Nathan heard some footsteps from behind.

He slowly turned back to look and saw a woman dressed in a hot red dress, curvy body, and plump 'certain' body parts, walking towards him.

Nathan noticed that the woman's eyes were glued at him.

So he raised an eyebrow and asked,

"Is there something that you need me for, Miss?"
