On the night before the opening day , Alexander hosted a massive banquet in the Avalonian palace for the competing participants to properly meet each other under a friendly umbrella once before the fight broke out.

But unlike the various sect masters and kings who were civil and courteous and actually easy to talk to under such banquet settings , the teenagers were not at all interested in forging relationships at all.

There were constant scans thrown around to gauge each other’s strength as everyone was wary of everyone else and sticked closely around each other’s home team members.

There were all sorts of characters present at the banquet , loud ones , silent ones , clowns , cartoons , special ones , bald ones , short ones , fat ones and even 4 girls .

The ratio of boys to girls was absolutely disproportionate and although in the world of Everlon women were not inherently weaker then men , this banquet could be considered as a display of the balance of power in the world.

Hardly any kingdoms were ruled by a female warrior while there was only one active female balancer in the world order.

Although both male and female had equal chance to succeed , with there being no prejudice against either genders. Women tended to focus on a happy and stable life more than the pursuit of the pinnacle of warrior paths while men were made as war machines.

Ronan wondered if it was because during ancient times the men were the hunters and gatherers while the women were the housemakers that the men got the unruly thirst of power and adventure in their genes while the women seeked stability.

In the wild only the strongest and best men got to mate with women and pass down their lineage , as it was nature’s selection to only chose the best and reject the rest._.

Although society had progressed and now with the concepts of monogamy and marriage and whatnot , everyone had a chance to find a mate, those who remained true to their primal nature became warriors who seeked the pinnacle of warrior path , while those who did not became the other professions.

Ronan knew for sure that he found his warrior calling to come from deep within himself.

Even if he wasn’t a Draco and even if Alexander did not force him to walk on that path so early on, he knew that sooner or later he would have became a warrior as something about getting stronger and levelling up , while learning new techniques and fighting strong foes made Ronan’s blood pump like nothing else could remotely do.

It was his only passion in life , which was probably why he was able to carry on the path of a warrior despite the adversities he faced and able to train as insanely as he did.

Artificial motivation could make one work for a short term goal , but sooner or later artificial motivation always faded.

Things like revenge , desire and lust were good motivators for one to rush on a warriors path , but those warriors ultimately could only end up as far as Augustus and Alexander did.

Accomplished but not at the very pinnacle , as the ultimate desire inside them was not the joy of getting stronger itself , but the benefits that came associated with it.

In such scenarios when the benefits were not worth the efforts , they stagnated , as Augustus did when Alexander took the mantle from him and he no longer needed to be the house’s main driving force.

However , for Ronan while the Secondary reasons were important , his primary joy was why he was a warrior , and as he scanned the room to look for others like him he could fine none at all as everyone else in the banquet was a warrior for a reason and not a warrior for the joy of the battle.

Ronan did not fear anyone , wether his age or significantly elder to him , even if someone was of a higher level he would stare them in the eye and not back off as there was no fear in his eyes when he saw them.

However not one of the men or women inside the banquet gave off the vibe that they loved the joy of fighting to Ronan , as he hence lost interest to socialize with any one of them.

In his mind the only friends he would ever consider to be worthy of making through effort would be like minded people who loved fighting because they thoroughly enjoyed it.

Who were warriors because they wanted to be nothing else but warriors , and not because they achieved something by being a warrior.

Hence focusing on the good food and music , Ronan Draco passed the banquet in absolute silence.

( Meanwhile Percy )

Ronan and Percy both were technically the hosts of the banquet on the side of Avalon , but with his brother completely uninterested in the social world , all responsibilities fell on Percy to entertain the bratty kids.

Thankfully Percy was a very patient man who was good with handling children as he knew exactly how to diplomatically handle issues while keeping the atmosphere pleasant.

As a host he did his best to meet all groups and greet all contestants while wishing them the best of luck , while carefully not being baited into a war of words with them or insulting anyone.

While some were courteous , some tried to bait him into a fight however Percy managed to always laugh it off as he bottled all the insults and anger and threw them out of the window for the day as he mentained his image as a host.

Prime minister Leif greatly appreciated this quality in Percy which was why he always felt that he was the right candidate to take the throne of Avalon.

Although the talents of the second brother were undeniable and his personality to rule was not adverse either , he wasn’t the perfect diplomat as percy was.

Reclusive was the right word to describe Ronan as while he was extremely warm to the people he loved he was unnaturally cold to everyone else.

He came off as rude and uninterested even if he did not mean to be so , and that deducted from him being an ideal king as such behaviour in banquets of diplomatic meetings may lead to the other party being offended.

In his heart Leif loved the little one more than the elder one as while Ronan was a kid he was quite literally the candy eating teddy bear of the palace on whom everyone doted.

Eventhough he grew up the connection established in childhood was intact , hence in a fight where Ronan took on Percy , his heart would always root for the second one.

However his mind told him that for Percy to leave a lasting impression as a strong king on the people of Avalon he needed to beat Ronan in this competition.

A fierce battle lasted between his heart and his mind as in the end he was inconclusive as to what outcome he wanted.

It was funny how looking at all the strong competitors Leif still beleived that the path to Ronan clashing with Percy in the finals was a given , as having personally seen the two princes rise as a warrior he understood that nobody from the young generation could ever hold a candle to the flames of the Draco family.

While there were many of comparable level strength and some even stronger , in Leif’s mind it was impossible for anyone to defeat the two brothers because he knew how harshly Alexander had trained them.

Fighting was an impulse ingrained before their bones had completely fused in the two children and such instincts could only be developed with the harshest of trainings.

None of the privilaged nobles would ever train their children like dogs and they were instantly ruled out of the equation due to that , while none from the major sects exuded the aura of depth that the two princes had at the banquet.

Ronan and Percy were like an ocean while the other kids were a shallow pool.

Chuckling , Leif mumbled ” The next few days are going to be interesting “.

After a point he stopped worrying about the competition finals as wether Percy won or Ronan , Avalon was going to be the ultimate winner as once the two brothers started to shine the world would finally witness the might of the Avalonian country and realise that the future was limitless.

The pre- banquet party was nearly not going to be as important as the post banquet one , as while nobody paid attention to Leif at this moment in time he was sure that 7 days later , they would be scrambling to make connections with him!
