The Geared Immortal

Chapter 899

(Unedited)

…

While this is happening, the Viscount on the other hand is already breaking a sweat. He did not know what is happening and how to proceed from here. Prince Lamier clearly told him to do something but now it seems that the plan should be changed. Then his eyes landed on the man holding the small box.

He signaled the man to go away quietly.

The man seems to know what his master is thinking so he did not stay and quickly yet quietly walks away.

"Prince Lamier and Prince Jun, please allow me to accommodate the two of you…" the Viscount said as he gestured for the two to follow him.

The Viscount did not say anything about his daughter because he is now afraid to implicate her in this messy political struggle.

The reason why he stayed in the outer world out of the messy inner kingdom is because of this political upheaval between the princes. He did not want to drag himself in this struggle along with his family.

However, he has no choice but to obey the command of Prince Lamier to give the Ghost Thorn to the head of the Mystique Shop. However, it seems that the Prince has changed his mind and actually fears these people.

With his sharp mind, he is able to deduce this situation and react immediately.

As the group enters the manor a few of the Viscount's concubines walks out and greeted everyone along with their daughters. However, the status of the daughter's concubine is lower than Olivia's so they did not go out that much.

But since they are her sister, Olivia asked her father to let them at least meet with the guests.

And so the banquet started with the two high-ranking princes sitting along with the Viscount on the main seat.

Meanwhile, the rest are busily talking and associating with each other.

In the middle of the party, the Viscount suddenly stands up and clinks his cup to get the attention of everyone.

"Noble ladies and gentlemen, I am happy to be the host of this banquet this evening. You have graced my home with your presence, and I along with my family am grateful for that. And to further liven things up, I now present to you one of the greatest songstresses of our land, the beautiful, the amazing, Miss Isabel Nightingale…" he said as he gestures his hand to the back.

The crowd turned their attention to the direction where the Viscount is pointing. In that direction, a group is already seated and has prepared their instrument after the curtain opens.

Everyone gasped in excitement upon seeing the group. Isabel showed her beautiful smile while the elves behind her are more concentrated on their instruments. The people could not see their real identity as elves with Shin Jiao's concealment.

Though elves are accepted in the land, in the Main Arjing City, many seemed to have a strong revulsion toward other races.

Hence there is a need for them to conceal themselves.

The instruments began to play and the music covered the air. Everyone was immediately entranced with the music as they found themselves waving from side to side.

Then Isabel's angelic voice reverberated through the air as she began singing one of her songs. The people were amazed and astonished at her voice.

Though they have already heard her singing on the radio, they still could not help but truly admire her live singing voice. It feels different, surreal even.

Meanwhile, the 3rd prince has already seated at the edge of his seat with his eyes glued on the beautiful woman singing that melodious song that seems to tug on his heartstrings.

Every word that came out of her mouth is like honey to him and has gained his attention like a lonely bee.

"Mystifying… beautiful… truly magnificent…" he muttered while looking straight at Isabel.

Prince Lamier was also attracted but as someone who has experienced the world, he was not that mystified and just admired the woman's beautiful voice.

Suddenly something from the 3rd prince's body glowed slightly and his mind went back to calmness. He showed a hint of confusion at first then his expression darkened.

His gaze towards Isabel now turned cold and indifferent.

After the song was finished, everyone clapped their hands as if they were all awoken from an endless yet wonderful sleep making their body invigorated and felt pleasant.

"What a great song! Bravo!"

"She truly is the best singer in the land…"

"I really like this song of hers… I think, 'Cry to heaven' is the best song ever…"

"Eh… I want to hear, 'Sunrise and sunset', I think that song is also the best…"

"Yeah, me too…"

Everyone around the room began to clap their hands and say praises to Isabel and her group.

Lamier Grav saw the expression on his nephew and smile.

"Prince Jun… Do not be too serious… the songs she sings have a slight soothing spell on them. This is used to make those who listen to her feel the different emotions in the songs. Do not be alarmed." Lamier said while patting the shoulder of his nephew.

A bit took aback the 3rd prince did not know what to say. In fact, he thought that the woman is trying to seduce his mind and is trying to control him, that's why his necklace acted immediately to clear his mind. But it turned out that it has a soothing effect instead.

Then the music began to play again…

That night, Isabel presented 3 songs for the crowd and it made everyone truly happy.

Lamier, on the other hand, was greatly surprised and knew that this truly has a gift. But he is looking at the people behind her with suspicion.

Right at this moment, he wanted to confirm that suspicion, and the man to approach for that is the person who brought them.

So his gaze landed on the man standing in the corner without attracting anyone's attention.

He stood up from his seat and said his excuse.

Soon he appears next to Shin Jiao without anyone noticing him.

This greatly alarmed Yemei Yin who is standing beside Shin Jiao in her invisible estate.

"Calm down…" Shin Jiao said as he patted her shoulder.

"Prince Lamier…" Shin Jiao nodded to the person beside him.

"Haha… You truly are cautious. Sigh… Anyway, I'm here to ask you of Miss Isabel and her… group." The prince said with a smile while looking at Isabel who is still singing.

"Your conjecture is correct…" Shin Jiao did not explain.

When the Prince heard this his expression change.

"So… they are… elves?" he asked in a low voice.

Shin Jiao nodded his head.

"I've seen a lot of concealment techniques, but what they are using is different. I cannot even see it… Is this your doing?"

"Hmm… Yes, Miss Nightingale has a dream to be able to sing and show her talent to the world. While those behind her wanted to support her in her dreams. They taught her the technique in singing and from then on, this group has been traveling in the human, elven, and other races territories to share their songs… Well, not until the radio was invented by us anyway… that's when the group decided to stay in Central Town for good."

The prince did not say anything and just think deeply for a while.

"When I heard her voice on the radio, I knew something is different about the way she sings. I did not know that she was taught by the elves themselves."

With a bit of hesitation, he looks at Shin Jiao and then said in a low tone.

"The kingdom is in unrest. People do not have their way of venting their prostrations and war, fighting, and lots of crimes have been committed because of the lack of entertainment. But I noticed something different in Central Town. The atmosphere there is different, unique even. I guess this is because people's minds are distracted. They do not have time to make trouble outside… Haha…"

"Well, I guess so…" Shin Jiao just said perfunctorily.

"Alright… How long will it take for your technology to reach the inner kingdom?" Prince Lamier said as if he suddenly determined something.

"Hmm… The situation in the inner kingdom is different. We could not reach that place even if we set up a huge station in Main Arjing City… But it would be different if we are able to put a station directly in one of the cities in the inner kingdom." Shin Jiao said while thinking.

A slight glint of craftiness is in his eyes but hid it immediately. The Prince did not notice this as he too was in deep thought.

"Hmm… I will go back and ask my cousin about this. Wait for me for a week, if the king agrees, then I can let you guys enter the inner kingdom…" Prince Lamier Grab said with a hint of determination in his eyes.

The two shook hands and they continue to mingle at the party.

When the prince left, the figure of Yemei Yin appears.

Both showed smiles on their faces.
