    At this time, to and others were all ready as soon as they got the information from Taylor about finishing the signing ceremony today.


    Maeen meanwhile was looking at Quill who previously used the Devilish ckfire in hisbat against Irm. She slowly muttered and spoke, "This kingdom really has a lot of hidden gems and can''t be underestimated. What do you think Cain."


    Cain nodded with agreement and spoke, "Yes, in fact, it is better if they are stronger as this will help us spread our influence better than other families. I am sure most of them think that this is a barren piece ofnd due to lower magic in the atmosphere."


    Very soon, John and others arrived forpleting the signing ceremony which required a memorable photo and what better than Illusion Camera for use.


    At the podium of the square, John, to, Anin, Ein, Bidder, Mist were all present.


    Dwayne who was beside Alison asked him rudely, "Lord Alison, Why is Master Mist on the podium? I thought that Master Mist didn''t really liked the limelight."


    Alison fake coughed a bit and spoke, "We already participated in the previous battle against Irm so it is better if we endorse the existence of this agreement."


    Dwayne nodded as he thought, ''It seems that I have again changed the future trend. Last time, although Master Mist saved a lot of people, he didn''t really participate inpleting the signing ceremony. This time, my intervention has changed the oue. Well, it is better as Elves are really shy when ites to making agreements with foreign races.''


    John spoke to all the official diplomats, "I must really thank you all for agreeing to my request on such short notice."


    Suddenly, all the cameras started ringing which signified thepletion of the Signing ceremony officially. Both John and to were holding the agreement when the cameras started ringing.


    to thought as he looked at the situation for the first time, ''This ringing of cameras feels quite good. Maybe, we too should buy these cameras for official signing ceremonies.''


    After thepletion of the ceremony, Ealdron suddenly came to to and spoke, "Lord to, I wonder if you can give us an interview or at least answer some of our questions since the signing ceremony is already over."


    to thought a bit and spoke, "Will this be published in your newspapers?"


    Ealdron nodded and spoke, "Yes, we would like your official position on the statements you make."


    to thought as he heard the answer, ''Our Diplomats must really be careful if they give such interviews. I must warn Luke and Elison to keep an eye on his people.''


    to nodded and spoke, "Ok, I can answer some of your questions. I will reject answering the question I won''t like."


    Ealdron nodded and spoke, "What are your views on the North-south peace deal?"


    As a well-versed Politician, to nodded and spoke, "A genuine quest for the search of peace by both the countries. Increased fighting would only result in the loss of lives which will put both the regions in chaos."


    Ealdron thought as he heard his answer, ''Tch, A very cliche answer. How about I try to goad him.''


    Ealdron noted down his answer and asked another question, "ording to my sources, I heard that Aelius has decided to give Greenwoods Vige to Sky. Is that correct?"


    to smiled cunningly and thought, ''Hmph, goading me to give you an answer? Very well, I will throw you a truth bomb. I wonder how you will react to it. This will teach you a lesson for life for trying to mess with me.''


    to smiled cunningly and spoke, "No, Baron Mendez''s domain is still upied by Sky so we can only wait on how muchnd is ceded by Sky to Baron Mendez. However, I would like to give you the good news that Lord John Sky and Princess Sally Aelius i.e. Daughter of My king will be getting married shortly. This is also one of the reasons that this peace agreement was made without any hassles."


    Ealdron was shocked as he never thought that he would hear such an answer from to. After looking at to''s teasing expression Ealdron understood that he had been yed by to. He thought as he heard the answer, ''This piece of juicy news would certainly hit the headlines. I wonder if it would be censored again by Glenn. No, I don''t think so as this will anyway shortly spread since to is taking the lead to speak. Darn, I shouldn''t have taken his interview in the first ce.''


    Ealdron calmed down a little as he noted this down and asked another question, "What do you think of the future rtions between some nobles of Aelius and the Radiant Church. ording to our sources, The Radiant Church is advocating the Freedom of Human ves but are quite unconcerned about other species."


    to calmed down and spoke as it was already nned by him and John to use propaganda against the Radiant Church, "I am not sure, however, if it is true then I can see a big power struggle between those nobles and the Radiant Church. Well, Radiant Church is quite a hypocrite when it tries to grandstand by talking of Freedom from very. Compared to them, Lord John is truly someone who cares about his people regardless of race."


    Ealdron nodded as his cameraman Randolph came and took to''s picture with his illusion camera.


    Ealdron nodded and spoke, "Ok, I will conclude the questions for today. Hope you enjoy a wonderful evening."


    to looked everywhere as he called his disciple and spoke, "Tell Luke and Elison that they must be careful if they are going to give an interview. And tell them that they must control the mouths of their men."


    Today, everywhere there were a lot of reporters from all the major publishing houses as the party in the square unknowingly continued till midnight due to the Feast of Lights.


    John and all of his ministers were giving interviews with an emphasis on North-frontier city as well as the prepared script previously.
