A scroll with the signatures of the 6 Heirs and their territories made this ceremony possible.
Normally, there would be no suspense, but among the people present, a strange little suspense was raised. Egon Edevane's insistence on knowing the signatories was strange, considering that the answer should be obvious.
There shouldn't be anything strange behind it, but now there seemed to be.
And Frederick didn't keep them waiting.
He said the names of Jack Allen and Alice Allen, whose signature was permissive and represented a territory that in the future would be under her command, something that could naturally be done. After that, the signatures of Frederick Murphy's eldest son, Wilfred Murphy, and Sophia Murphy were forceful in the resolution, revealing that the two clans were unanimous in their support.
The fifth signature was no surprise, for that fellow was present, the signature of Liam Wagner himself, a man of incredible status among the Heirs, because of his good talent for the spear and his unusual way of being, something uncommon in vampires.
After saying all these signatures, everything was going according to the norm.
But there was a drastic change, which made Egon and Cynfael pale.
"Sixth Signatory in favor of the consecration of Matthew Dietrich as Lord of the Kingdom, by request of the same person: Cecily Edevane and her territory are fully in favor, her signature being granted on one condition: she wants to meet Matthew Dietrich, at least once."
"Matthew Dietrich's enshrinement is inevitable with the 6 Signatures of the Heirs and the 3 Seals of the Vampire Clans."
Frederick, this time, was forceful in what he was reading and stared at Egon and Cynfael.
"One more interruption and I will be forced to make you kiss the ground, Egon, Cynfael, and Richter. So I expect you to be silent and watch the ceremony. I am unafraid of any of your Clans, and my Clan Murphy will advocate in this situation as the mediator to deal with the idiots who want to continue to oppose a sacred ritual."
'Now all that's left is for these guys to fall for the provocation.' He thought, looking at Egon, Cynfael, and Richter—especially the latter.
'Cecily...' Egon was somewhere between angry, confused, embarrassed, and puzzled. He couldn't understand why his daughter had done it.
Still, he knew he was in front of a lot of people, so he finally looked at Matthew and gave him a forced smile.
"Congratulations to the new Lord of the Kingdom. I hope our new pillar is worthy of the title." Immediately after, he turned and left without another word.
Cynfael did the same while Leader Becker left without another sound. King Richter also congratulated him, but he stayed as a normal guest.
After a huge round of congratulations, Matthew said a few words as protocol—nothing too much—and the ceremony ended after about two hours.
Matthew and many more went to have a celebratory ceremony, but nothing noteworthy.
On the other side of the Dark Kingdom, when Egon returned to the family home, he was angry.
News spreads fast these days, so the news that Cecily Edevane had signed that agreement hit his desk soon after, causing him to explode in anger—not just at himself but also at his colleagues.
Because now the question that arose was... Was Clan Edevane allied with Clan Allen?
For the great powers, this could be: did the Edevane Clan bow to the Allen Clan? Which was a sign of weakness.
Naturally, he was enraged.
