Chapter 46: Retired villain and fake female lead meet.

Sounds of merry merry making filled the royal castle, as many nobles as possible had rushed to the kings castle or flocked to the royal hunting grounds where the fest was being prepared.

Right from the moment when the celestial trumpets were heard, all the royal maids and foot men set out to decorate the majestic walls of the grand castle. The curtains were changed, flowers were mounted in every nook and crevice and floralite stones that were pink and delicate emitting the sweet scent of blooming roses and lilies were placed in different corners of the castle.

Only two hours had passed since the royal army returned, the knights and soldiers were still munching on refreshments at the hunting grounds, some were bathing in the river and others had found spots under trees where they had fallen asleep.

As for the highest titled noble lords and ladies and leaders of the army, they were in the grand hall, facing the king, queen and other members of the royal family that were present.

While their hearts clamored with excitement, their faces also held light or deep frowns of disapproval that were shot the way of duke and duchess Thorin. The reason for this was because the crown princess was yet to make an appearance to show her support for the crown prince.

Eventually, even the king found himself tired of waiting and he looked at Roland whose face expressed both agitation and worry.

"Son, where is your wife, has she not received word of your return?"

Roland peered at the doors beyond the heads of the nearly filled hall.

"She will be here soon, I have received word that she left the vale sometime ago. Surely, it will not be long before she makes an entrance." he replied.

He held back the disapproval in his voice, he planned to have a very serious talk with Sigrid when he went home that night.
