Chapter 290 The Award Ceremony! Part-1.

Next day, Morning.

8:00 A.M.

The royal family sent their butlers and maids early in the morning, and they all stormed into Rio’s room outta nowhere.

That unexpected situation surprised Rio, but he had no other option.

Before he could even react, they got to work.

He got the royal prince treatment, and they were even saying that they would help him bathe, but he refused to let anyone other than Lia touch his body, so he just went to take a shower by himself.

Today marks the culmination of his tireless efforts over the past few days. For this award ceremony, he went through all the trouble of injuring Lia, beating Liam, and then fighting Link.

Rio wore the clothes given to him by the staff members.

Pure gold and silver threads create the designs on the clothes, which have a background of black fiber.

It even has the rare hand-sewn elven embroidery on it.

A cape hangs from behind Rio’s back from the shoulder, and a giant world tree is printed on the cape in a light green color, as if it is giving its blessings to all.

Rio de-summoned his form-changing sword and put the ‘Ceremonial Sword’ given to him with these clothes on his waist.

The maids went out of their way to style Rio’s hair, which increased his charm a bit.

[As they say, clothes and hair are like makeup for men; if you wear good clothes and have a good enough hairstyle, even a wild pig will look smart and intelligent…] (Source: Trust me bro…)

Those royal maids were really good at their work; they knew what hairstyle would suit better on Rio’s face.

Thus, after wearing those amazing clothes and getting a new hairstyle, Rio looked like a prince today.

(Yeah, he looks handsome in this outfit; even this stingy author will have to admit it…)

Looking in the mirror, Rio was so shocked that he thought it was not his reflection in the mirror.

‘D*mn! I never knew that I could also look this good someday…’

Rio has never cared about his looks before; he has experienced living in the streets and staying covered in dirt and mud.

Thus, to him, fashion and other things have never made much sense.

But today, Rio was truly shocked by how much your appearance can change with just a few simple changes.

‘Um… I kind of like this now…’

And that was the day when Rio figured out the importance of fashion. After getting a taste of these good looks, even Rio was fascinated.

Thus, he decided to learn a bit about fashion sense from that day on.

When Rio left his room,.

A red carpet was placed on the floor, and the maids and butler followed behind him with eyes filled with respect.

When he finally came out of the waiting area, a luxurious car came into sight, and the bodyguards opened the door for him in a respectful manner.

All of this seemed so unreal that Rio thought he was dreaming.

Everyone treated him like a prince today, gazing at him with awe and admiration wherever he went.

While sitting in the car, Rio leaned his head against the window glass and thought to himself.

‘I see… so this is how it feels to be born into a rich family and get treated like a young master or something…’

‘It’s quite nice… But I fear that I might get too intoxicated by this feeling if I am not careful…’

Having spent both of his lives as an orphan, he has never experienced the joy of living off of his parents’ wealth or the immediate fulfillment of all his desires.

But seeing it all today made him feel warm and happy. This is one of the rare occasions when even the emotionless Rio might smile happily.

‘I kind of understand now why the young children of rich families get spoiled… Even I might get obsessed with this if I am not careful… sigh, it must be nice, though…’

Those who have never received love from their parents will always dream of it when they see others get it easily.

Thus, even Rio felt a bit jealous of others when thinking about this.

‘I kind of understand why Zach Senpai was always so happy when he was alive… He had a loving family after all; his family gave him plenty of love, and he was a blessed man…’

Even if Rio was feeling a bit sad, as if his eyes lacked the function called ‘Tears’, his eyes remained as empty and devoid of life as always. Rio could never weep, even if he wanted to.

He had lost the ability to cry and weep long ago.

…

Royal Garden, at the foot of the world tree.

A banquet party was arranged at the foot of the World Tree today.

Rare flowers were used to decorate the venue, and people were arriving one after another.Rêađ lat𝒆st ch𝒂pters on n𝒐/v/𝒆/l(b)i𝒏(.)c𝒐m

Several cameramen were broadcasting this event live, and the whole world was watching it with great enthusiasm.

The tournament of supreme talents ended yesterday, and today is the award ceremony.

All SS rankers and the S rankers representing their respective races arrived by 9:00 a.m., and many high-ranking Elven businessmen and other people were also arriving one by one.

The scale of this banquet required nearly three thousand maids and butlers to serve the guests.

The enormous garden at the base of the world tree features a large open field in the center, which serves as the banquet’s main area at the moment.

But the guests are not restricted to only this venue; they can go and take a stroll all around in the royal garden at their own leisure.

Only when the award ceremony starts will they need to be present.

The maids set up chairs and tables in the open field and served everyone drinks and snacks.

Everything was decorated according to elven customs and traditions, which made this banquet look even more beautiful than ever before.

The King even allowed the use of the weather-changing device, and thus a particularly cool and slightly windy climate was created.

People can feel the cool breeze rush past their faces while carrying the scent of those rare flowers; this made the place even more amazing.

And to add even more awesomeness to the banquet, the king hired professional musicians to play instruments, adding even more charm to this already amazing scenery.

…

Wearing a reddish-brown suit with golden designs on it, Ashtel sipped wine from his glass and nodded his head at Ryul.

“Indeed, you have put a lot of effort into this place; even my Rex family will have difficulty arranging so much in just a day…”

Ryul, who was in the king’s robe now, only shook his head and said in a calm voice,

“We already had this amazing flower field as a venue; the world tree’s roots bless this place, so the plants here are all very good; that’s why we conduct all of the great events here…”

“By the way, how did you like the clothes? I specially hired a lot of Elven designers to design clothes for all guests!”

With a smile on his face, Ashtel nodded his head in satisfaction.

“They are amazing. I can see that the designers have tried their best to show the finesse of Elven traditions in these clothes… These clothes are much better than those prepared in factories…”

These clothes, unlike those produced by machines in factories, are hand-sewn and created with the hard work of many national-level designers.

They represent the respect the elven people have for their guests.

Even Ashtel felt happy after receiving such finely made clothes, and if he hadn’t worn them, then it would have been very disrespectful to the hard work that the Elven people put into making them.

Although no one dares blame an SS ranker, the SS rankers carry the respect of the nation on their shoulders; they can’t bear to disrespect people because they feel guilty for it.

(SS rankers have an open-minded mentality; they are the pinnacle of power in this world, after all.)

Ashtel sipped the wine and asked Ryul in a confused tone.

“By the way, you are a king, right? Why are you wandering around like this? Shouldn’t you sit on a throne or something?”

Ryul shook his head at Ashtel’s words and replied with a smile on his face.

“Nope, I used to do that in the past, but now that we are broadcasting all of this live, I can’t show myself being too arrogant in front of the whole world…”

“Moreover, with all these SS rankers gathered here, it would be weird for me to be the only one sitting on a higher seat…. I will just sit along with you guys until the ceremony starts…”

Ryul is the king of the Elven Empire and the head of the world alliance; therefore, he will be in charge of awarding the students with his own hands.

The whole alliance has contributed many rare things to this award ceremony.

Every candidate who reached this tournament already has supreme talent; thus, it would be rude to let them go back home empty-handed.

Thus, even the candidates who lost in the tournament will get something.

The alliance doesn’t lack resources; they will reward all children according to how long they survive the tournament.

[If they don’t lack resources, then why be stingy? Obviously, they must reward all candidates according to their efforts.]

This is the mentality of those who stand at the peak of the world; this is the open mindedness of the SS-rankers who rule over the world alliance.
