Chapter 17 Birthday Banquet Soon
'IV 7th, 2400'
The Raverdieu had already sent out all the invitations to all of the Major families, which were the Doomthornes, Duragny, Crellons, and Mevoires. Small families like the earls, viscounts, and barons were also sent invitations.
Big organizations like the Guild Hunter Association, Pontiac Academy, and so on were also given invitations. People with low status were not qualified to attend this banquet, and only those with high status were invited.
There existed a villa in an unspecified location, whereupon a balcony resided. Upon this balcony, an exquisite young lady could be discerned, seated gracefully with her lower limbs artfully crossed, partaking in the consumption of tea.
This young woman possessed lustrous snowy hair and striking gray eyes. She was reading the invitation that had been extended to her household.
She muttered in an indifferent tone, "So your birthday is tomorrow, huh? The boy I played with when I was a little child. Well, I'll be there, we will meet again soon." Upon concluding her statement, she delicately sipped from her tea and gracefully sealed the invitation.
This girl was none other than Celestia Chauverisey Doomthorne. Zen and her were childhood friends, but that was just it, just friends. She did not have any good or bad impressions of him.
In fact, she doesn't even remember much of her childhood. She just remembered that there was a boy her age, she often played with her when she was a little child.
In a different location, a young lady with flowing pink hair and shimmering purple eyes was on her bed, also reading the invitation.
It was Daphne Duragny, her feelings were also the same as Celestia's. "Hmmm, Zenryx Raverdieu's birthday. Ok, I'll go!" She closed the invitation and went back to her game. She also liked playing games; she was the same as Zen.
The invitation has been extended to every esteemed family in the Astre continent, and each of them is making the necessary preparations for departure.

Back to Tranquil City, where Zen's villa was located.
Zen has just finished doing all his daily routines and spending quality time with his family. Now he was heading towards the area where all the attendants live to meet Marie.
As he made his way towards the attendants and servants of Marie, they extended respectful greetings and expressed well wishes for his birthday. Zen responded with a gracious smile and expressed his gratitude by saying, "Thank you."
Ever since Zen's attitude changed, all of the attendants and guards changed their view of him. Now they were not respectful out of fear, but they truly admired and respected him with their hearts.
Zen arrived at Marie's room. He knocked and said coldly "Come in!". She was exhausted from doing all the work assigned to her, so she was really not in the mood right now. Of course, she was not exhausted physically, as she is a Magister, but she was mentally exhausted.
Zen entered the room, prompting Marie to promptly rise to her feet and extend a courteous welcome, adjusting her attitude accordingly.
"Oh, young master! What are you doing here? I thought you were preparing for your banquet."
Zen responded, "Actually, yes, I was, but I have finished all the things I need. It's just that I need you to do something for me."
Marie then curiously asked, "What is it, young master? I am more than glad to be of assistance to you!"
He then pulled out the Tritonic from his dimensional ring and handed it to her.
"Th-This is?" Marie stuttered a bit.
"I just need you to place that at the center of the banquet area when I'm about to make my appearance, which would be around nine p.m.," Zen said.
Despite her curiosity, she refrained from inquiring about its purpose and agreed to his request.
After instructing Marie on what he needed her to do, he returned to his room.
Fiona and their parents were conspicuously absent within the villa, as they were completely occupied with their preparations. Leaving only Zen inside.
Countless flying ships, luxurious cars, and people that looked like they had high-ranking status could be seen making their way into the serene confines of Tranquil City.
The individuals belonging to a lower class who resided in this city were perplexed as they observed the presence of vessels bearing the emblems of esteemed families of significant social standing.
However, a considerable number of individuals were also cognizant of the unfolding events, as the banquet garnered significant online exposure.
Following the disturbance, a collective realization permeated among the crowd that it marked the eleventh birthday of Raverdieu's esteemed young master.
The birthday banquet will be live-streamed on all television networks. Additionally, this event will be televised on the jumbotrons. Jumbotrons are expansive four-dimensional holographic video displays strategically positioned adjacent to towering buildings.
A lot of people also went to watch the banquet close. Although they would be at a considerable distance and barely be able to see. They just wanted to get a look at Zenryx, who was mysterious and had never appeared in the world before. The rumors made them very curious about him.
In a modest residence, an endearing young girl with raven locks, deep ruby eyes, and an aesthetically pleasing countenance, approximately eleven years of age, was seated alongside her parents.
They were intently focused on the square, glass-paneled television screen, through which the banquet was being broadcasted in real-time.
The girl spoke and said with a low-spirited tone, "Such a huge banquet, I wish I could attend it, and I bet they prepared a lot of delicious food."
Her father laughed and said, comforting her, "Hahaha, daughter, maybe in the future, and once you enter the Pontiac Academy and become successful, you should be able to eat all the food you want."
This father of hers was an Intermediate mage, and this girl was a Novice mage about to enter Elementary Rank. His father has been guiding her and teaching her the basics of magic.
The girl's name was Eliza. Now she is learning how to coat her body with mana to enter the Elementary level, which she should be able to do by next year. So she should be good enough to qualify and enter Pontiac Academy.
The mother responded with a gentle smile to the conversation unfolding between them. Despite her health condition, their family was quite happy and content with their current life. They then ceased their conversation and proceeded to watch the live broadcast.
