The lunch at the Lockwoods turned out quite as Ocean had imagined. Count Lewinsteins's family was also there along with Asher and they only had to ask about Mirielle, her family and to get acquainted Ocean Ryujin himself.
But even they wouldn't have expected him to come with four kids who clung to him. Sol was carried by Ocean himself who quietly went along with how Ocean treated me but apart from him, the Queen of Mordino, the future Grand Duke of Sestia and the Crown Prince of their own country were hovering around the masked man like his loyal puppies.
There was an unspeakable tension across the large dining hall which was decorated with a feast.
Ocean and Sol seemed like they were only there to eat as they kept their heads down and serving themselves plate after plate.
"Mas-Marquis, would you like to taste this as well? It's quite delicious." Miri said and Ocean looked at her.
His smile was charming as he accepted the piece of juicy meat that Miri offered him.
