Trigger Warning: Dubcon (initially). Sorry, Octavia’s one of the major recurring side characters so I ended up writing a bit more about her POV. This should be the last one~

After the ceremony, there was a massive feast. It could be said that food flowed into the venue. What made it especially impressive was the use of ingredients from far away, some of which were even characterized by sea products.
They were definitely transferred here by crates via the teleportation array. For smaller items like the condiments, the Level 3 Post Office array was sufficient.
The food was also a bit salty, indicating the large use of salt. There were also fish, which in Bleumrick’s opinion didn’t taste too good, but having them in ample amounts was indicative of the status.
Hassen Lord was low-key in terms of their power, but he rarely held back when it came to showing wealth, which was not surprising due to how old the territory was.
Not to mention, although not as strong or influential as Holt City, Hassen could be considered to have an absolute monarchy as its power structure too, which Bleumrick had been wanting to receive from his own territory.
He wanted to be called ’King’ and he wanted everyone, including those damned nobles, to bow down before him as well. This alliance, he believed, was a shortcut to that status.
Later that night, he would fall asleep with beautiful women in his arms with a satisfied smile, not thinking about what his daughter would be going through right at that moment.
