Chapter 57 -: 57, Dream Coronation
"Wouldn’t it be appropriate to let the owner of the Artifact hand it over, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Ray stopped his hand in midair as he thought it through. It indeed didn’t make sense that he was handing over an artifact had no ownership of. And it would indeed be appropriate for Dainsleif to crown Hestia with the Artifact.
Someone tried to object but Emperor Ray stopped him and said, "You’re right. It’s indeed Dreamer Dainsleif who should present the award."
He stepped aside, signaling Dainsleif to go through the proceedings. Dainsleif was unwilling as even if he can forgive them, he didn’t want things to get messy later on and now he even has PTSD even thinking about involving himself with them.
But he really cannot reject the Emperor as it would be rude for his majesty to let him do something and he refuses which doesn’t even harm him that much to do.
He reluctantly walked towards the place everyone was awaiting for the crown. Hestia looked at him, almost in a trance as if she was seeing a dream in the middle of daylight. Her eyes barely left him as if looking at him felt like honey, sweet, natural and unmatched.
This made Dainsleif a bit uncomfortable. He quickly walked towards Hestia. His steps were fast to whoever was watching him, like he was in a rush for something despite having nothing to do all day.
But for Hestia, the world seemed to have slowed down. Every step Dainsleif took towards her, she watched and savored them to the fullest. If only she had comprehended the ’Law of Time’, she might’ve been able to stop time and watch him all she wanted for the rest of her life.
Too bad the ’Law of Time’ is practically impossible to comprehend.
