In the Royal Palace everyone was gathered in the massive hall, people from different cities, cults, guilds, sects and associations were all present there. The lovely environment was all time high as the more time passed the more people arrived. 

Despite the growing guests, the hall didn't feel packed or crowded, on the contrary, the livelier it got, the more perfect everything seemed. The seating arrangements in the hall were meticulously prepared, each chair and table bearing the names of the guests or the groups they represented. 

Maids and servants gracefully weaved their way through the crowd, offering trays of delectable delicacies and refreshing beverages to the attendees. 

As guests entered the palace, they were required to surrender their weapons. Similarly, storage artifacts, known for their ability to store other artifacts in them, were restricted to only VIP guests. Those who did not possess a special invitation had to part ways with their artifacts before entering the hall. 

To further enhance the security measures, an ingenious artifact was used. Each guest was marked with a special symbol, a sign that served as an identifier throughout the party. This artifact was imbued with enchantments that would detect and notify the King's guard if anyone attempted to utilize any form of skill or blessing within the party. It also worked as a tracking chip of sorts for the next 4 hours, so even if someone did try something, they couldn't run and hide. 

This policy ensured that the event remained free from any potential conflicts or disturbances. This advanced system also ensured that the celebration remained free from any misuse of magical abilities or any untoward incidents. 

No one wanted their secrets to be known by someone who had appraisal magic or some other blessing that let them know about others. High ranking individuals could just do a mana scan of their surroundings and they'd know everything, so with this artifact it gave many people a sense of security. 

It also gave everyone a positive impression of King Maximus. As everyone who joined in the hall were important people of the Schilla empire and some welcomed guests from other associations. Some envoys of beast kin and halflings were also present there. Dwarves already had their own embassy of sorts in Haven, so they had sent their own guests.

No one from the vampire clan or elves clan was present in the celebration, as both were clans that liked to keep to themselves. And unless one needed their assistance in clearing a tower or making some other decisions, they hardly ever took part in any social events. 

The talks and discussions were happening all around the hall, when the arrival of the Raven and Blake families at the hall drew the attention of all the guests present. 

A hush fell over the crowd as they beheld the sight of the revered heads of both families making their way towards their designated places. Agnus and Artemis walked side by side, exuding an air of regality and nobility, while Rio and Amelia held the hands of their maternal grandfather, Servirous Raven, as he led them forward. 

Whispers filled the hall as the guests observed the scene unfolding before their eyes. The eyes of the attendees couldn't help but fixate on Rio and Amelia, for it was their first public appearance after Rio's awakening. 

Rumors had spread like wildfire about Rio's blessing, and even those who didn't know about it before, had heard about it in this event. Now the guests had the opportunity to witness its effects firsthand.

After all it wasn't everyday when someone received the blessing of a primordial for free. People would end up risking their lives in dungeons, wasting it on praying daily in temples, but they wouldn't even be able to get the slightest bit of attention from those higher gods. And here it was, someone saying that a 10 year old got it for free on day 1.

???????? ???????? ????????????????????????????????????, ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ????????????????????????????????.???????????? ???????????? ???????????????? ????????????????????????????????.

The people from the churches or the one who practiced holy magic were surprised by simply looking at the amount of divine presence surrounding him. The aura of divinity was drowning him in their eyes. Calling it a shock would've been a light word, as some people left their seats and stood up in shock. 

Rio took a glance at his new system which was filled with a shit ton of notifications from different gods. This is also why events are rare in Arcadia, as simply it becomes a battleground for anyone to hoard the attention from other Gods. If you were lucky, you could get chosen, you can get their blessings. But if you were unlucky, you would simply lose the attention of the God you hardly got, just cause they found someone else entertaining enough to watch. 

Just like mortals of the world, many gods too had called those rumors false, but unlike their avatars or believers they could see the sign of Nyx's blessing on him, and the aura of darkness engulfing him. 

People too had become surprised soon, as their gods confirmed the validity for these rumors.
