Chapter 161 - 160. Royal Summon (5)
The parlor of Ruby Palace wasn’t like the one at Pearl palace. Unlike the pastel and light tones of the Pearl palace, this one was adorned with deeper colors and aesthetic furnishings.
It looked richer and more regal.
I was busy admiring the paintings in the room when the door opened behind me and I heard a loud and clear voice reverberate through the room.
"Baron Ocean Ryujin."
I turned around seeing the man, Roger Vous Ferin Marismus, and walked over to him before getting on my knee in front of him.
"Glory to the Sun of the Sestia, I, Baron Ocean Ryujin is deeply honored to be in your presence."
I could feel his eyes boring into my skull as I stayed kneeling in front of him, my Dragon’s blood boiling underneath my skin as I was kneeling in front of a human who wasn’t even worth of respect.
"Rise, Baron Ryujin." He said and I stood up.
"So, I finally get to see you, huh? I thought I’d never have a chance since Duke Aurelius told me you shied away from meetings." He said.
"Have a seat," he gestured towards the armchairs before taking a seat himself while his Aide Viscount Jordan stood behind him with his hands at his back.
I sat down facing the person who was placed on the throne because of the conspiracies of his wife. The man whose family was in shambles and filled with so much toxicity that no normal person could handle.
