Chapter 21 - Entrance

The King of Solaris has an air of absolute authority and superiority around him. His aura is released when he leaves the carriage and everyone feels an enormous pressure fall on them.

Everyone instantly kneels with their heads lowered.

A cheer come from the crowd. "MAJESTY AMBROSIUS!"

"MAJESTY AMBROSIUS!" All the rest of the people join in. The chorus of voices create a harmonious chant.

At the same time the two heads turn to look at the King of Solaris. They put their right hand on their chest and the left behind their back.

They give the King a deep bow as they stand on opposing sides of the path formed by the crowd.

They stretched their hands toward the direction of the arena as he walks forward. The crowd remains kneeling with reverence while looking up to bear witness to the king.

After the King stepped out, a gorgeous and elegant woman follows behind him.

She wears a beautiful tiara made of gold and rare gems. Her hair is up in a bun and she has sparkles in her hair.

Her eyes are as blue as the sky and as clear as the wind.

The dress she wears is a dazzling white silk dress with gold linen. Her skin is as smooth as silk and glowing with radiance. Her eyes hold the same superior ego as the King.

This is the Queen of Solaris, Andromeda Solaris. She has another title.

The Brightest Star of Solaris! 

The light wave of her hand to the crowd is enough to send many of the onlookers hearts a flutter.

Behind them their children come out following suit waving to the crowd.

They are the only children allowed to walk the same path as the King and heads of the branches as they are considered just as important.

These three are always the first carriages to arrive and in that order every time. The next ones come in no particular order but of equal importance. 

The first to arrive after those three is, the green and red carriage of the 5th branch known as the intelligence branch.

When the head of this branch comes out wearing a green dress with beautiful flora designs. Her dress has a cloak that is cut off just past her breasts, on this right breast pocket of this cloak was the number 5.

She bears light blonde hair with emerald green eyes.

Her body has magnificent proportions and they are further extenuated by the dress. contrary to her appearance her stare is icy cold as she walks past.

She didn't bothering to look at the crowds of people admiring her.

She is Lora Solaris also known as the floral goddess!

Next is the black and red carriage of the 7th branch known as the stealth branch. The head of this branch is rather close with the floral goddess.

She dons a sparkly yellow dress with sun designs all over it. She wears her hair in pigtails like a young girl even adorned with ribbons that had the number 7 on them.

Her hair is the same as the floral goddess, light blonde and her eyes with pink like opal. Her body has the same proportions as the floral goddess.

They are so similar it is as if their twins.

However her eyes pour out endless love causing all who looked into them for too long to fall head over heels. Her exasperated waves and kisses towards the crowd only fueled their obsession with her. 

She is Petunia Solaris also known as the untouchable rose!

Next carriage to appear is white and red which belongs to the 4th branch known as the research branch.

The head of this was the most reclusive branch leader, rarely coming out for anything and rumored to always be working on his next big project.

He steps out with silver goggles sitting a top his head.

His hair was messy and looked as if it was cut with garden sheers. He wears blue tee shirt and black dress pants, along with a pure white lab coat with the number 4 on the back.

He has silver grey eyes with large bags beneath them attributed to his sleep quality. He also ignores the crowd opting to focus on a cube he's fiddling with in his hands.

He is Damian Solaris otherwise known as the Mad Scientist!

Next one to make their way in front of the red carpet is a gold and red carriage which holds the head of the 6th branch known as the merchant branch.

This branch didn't only focus on financial goals but also medical goals due to head of this branch.

He departs from the carriage wearing a fancy white suit and dazzling gold tie. He wore dress shoes, as well as a white-gold glove on his left hand and many rings on his right hand.

He has short slicked back silver hair, with a gold bandana covering his mouth. This gives him a yakuza-esk appearance.

The bandana has a white circle in the middle with the number 6 in the center. He had a peaceful look as if he wanted to heal the world.

He is Eshmun Solaris also known as the Healing palm!

The last to walk out of their fully red carriage was the head of the 8th branch known as the military branch.

A man with a white suit and red waist coat walks out. He has scruffy red hair with lines of black hair intertwined.

He wears a gold medal on his left breast pocket with the number 8 on it.

He has dark red eyes and an aura of blood-lust pours out from them startling those unlucky enough to meet their gaze. This blood-lust has been accumulated from years of brutal battles.

This is Rowan Solaris also known and feared as the War god's chosen.

As Rowan took a few steps, a boy follows him out.

This boy had long golden hair he looked quite young but looking into his eyes was like looking into the sun. He has modestly handsome features and a red and yellow robe to complement his features.

People start murmuring. "what is he doing?"

"Doesn't that boy know where he is walking?"

"How dare he!"

Many more people start talking.

Ray heard this and starts smiling as he looked around. The heads of the branches stopped and turned to look at him as well.

The king also heard the people stopped at the entrance of the arena.

"What are you doing, boy?" Rowan asks coldly under his breath.

Ray is about to speak but he's interrupted by the sight of the King standing right in front of him. His stare bearing down on him with the weight of planets colliding.

All of the heads are looking at Ray as if he was a rotten corpse with a long grudge against them.

His father was the only exception, he looked at him with slight anger and a hint of pride. 'I told you to stand out, not to get yourself killed.'

The King looks down at him and speaks causing the murmurs and sound around them to stop instantly.

"Do you believe you are equal to my kids?"

"Do you believe you are equal to the branch heads?"

"Do you believe you are equal to the Queen?!"

"DO YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE EQUAL TO ME!" The king yells the last sentence and his voice booming out for miles.

Ray looks him in the eyes and although he sweats profusely barely managing to bear the pressure on his body.

As calm as possible says one word.

"Yes."
