Rebirth of the Ruined Noble



The royal knights stood at either side holding up their swords from the royal court to the festive palace in order to welcome the Emperor.

They had finished lining up two hours before the scheduled time for the emperor to arrive.

The knights weeping shining armor raised their swords in synchronization as they noticed the arrival of their lord, the Emperor Kaiser Von Brittan.

"""ALL HAIL THE EMPEROR"""

"""ALL HAIL THE EMPEROR"""

Kaiser stood silently and stared at everyone, and nodded in satisfaction after a while. Immediately, all the swords returned to their original positions, by the knight's sides.

Soon enough, from behind the emperor arrived his consorts.

The royal queen,  Guinevere Brittan and her children, the crown prince Nox Von Brittan and the royal princess, Aurora Von Brittan were immediately behind the emperor and behind them was Lady Aquintine Brittan and her son, the second prince, Evergrant Von Brittan.

And behind all of them stood the third prince, Ashborn Von Brittan, alone.

As his mother was not the official wife of the emperor, she wasn't allowed to attend the royal banquet, so he had to attend the ceremony alone.

Queen Guinevere walked over and stood beside the emperor. Kaiser Von Brittan looked back at his family for a movement.

Queen Guinevere has an arrogant smile on her face and from her action, he could clearly notice what she was thinking.

Ever since Evergrant renounced his right for the throne, Nox was convinced that he'd become the next emperor. He considered the 'battle for the throne' a walk in the park and believed that the throne was guaranteed to be his.

Kaiser actually thought that Evergrant was more suited for the throne, despite the fact that Evergrant didn't like to become the emperor.

He could clearly see the intention of Nox's face but he didn't react to them.

Then without reacting to anyone he walked ahead, walking past the soldiers who stood with solemn expressions.

He was the first to enter the Festive palace and the servants welcomed him with utmost respect.

And since the emperor had arrived, the guests began to enter the festive palace.

There were nobles from every region of the Mauryan empire, delegates from the different nations, the imperial guards to ensure the safety during the banquet, not like anyone would try to do something when all the four supreme stars would be present there.

There were also many influential figures like the master of the mercenary guild, Professor of the Freljord academy, commanders of the royal army, the royal mother, and many more.

Each and everyone of them were people with great power and had high influence among the people. As they entered the festive  palace, they were greeted by the servants with respect and soldier's stood unwavering with pride, looming over them.

Additionally it could be seen that special seats have been prepared for some of the important guests like the four supreme stars, the grand dukes, the seven sage and the royal mother.

And for the rest, the whole festive palace acted as a hosting place.

It was a majestic sight, even the coronation of some nations wouldn't be as grand as this spectacle. Thousands of guests who had come to the royal palace represented the Mauryan empire's prestige, authority and power.

The royal guards and servants of the royal palace were intoxicated with the feeling of importance as they stood with imposing expressions. They had to show that the empire's royal guards weren't ordinary people either, that they shared the glory of the Mauryan empire.

There was not a single nation that could rival the Mauryan empire in the eastern continent and the reason for that was on display in the royal banquet today.

"This must be your first banquet."

Hubert who entered the festive palace along with his wife and son, Eren asked him, seeing Eren looking around in excitement.

"Yes, Father."

Eren had actually attended a few banquets in his past life thanks to his master who was fairly famous in the western regions of the Mauryan empire, but this was his first time taking part in the banquet hosted by the royals, even if he took his past life into account.

Far from being invited to a banquet, Eren was stripped of his title as the noble of the Mauryan empire by the same emperor.

'But now, I'm standing right in front of the emperor as one of the main stars of the night ...To think this is the result after dying once.'

Eren chuckled, feeling proud yet bitter at the same time. In fact you took a deeper look into his emotions, the bitterness overwhelmed the feeling of pride and joy.

However, Eren didn't express his feelings and simply waited for his father's next words.

"As you may know, we Pendragons seldom involve ourselves in the affairs of the Empire."

"Yes."

It was a question that may appear in the mind of those who learn about the fact that the pendragon family, despite having two knights of 8-star level and the power of one of the strongest species in the world, a dragon is still considered as a Baron family.

The real reason why the pendragon's remained as Barons is because they themselves rejected the offer to be the 3rd duke family of the empire.

It was a long tale, from the time of the Mauryan empire's establishment. The Lord of pendragon's during that time decided that the power of the dragon should not be used for mortal wars or the conflict between the humans, so he declined the offer to become the duke of the empire from the first emperor and chose to settle down at the countryside.

The Pendragon's following his will, continued their seclusive life without involving themself in the matters of the empire unless it is a national emergency.

"Remember Eren, you are the heir to the Pendragons, you will succeed me someday. Don't be drawn to these materialist things, they are only temporary."

It seemed like Hubert was worried about his son being drawn to the luxury of the royal palace. It was only natural since from his perspective, Eren was still a 14 year old child, and in this age, being drawn to materialistic things was very natural.

"Don't worry father, I have no interest in Gold or Gilds."

But he was worried for nothing, for his son, Eren Pendragon had known this truth better than anyone.

In his previous life, Eren had gone from a rich noble to a homeless person in just one day. His whole family and their assets were burned alive, and neither their wealth nor their assets came to their rescue.

And he had long lost the desires for materialistic wealth.

Hubert who heard his son's resolute words had a satisfied smile on his face.

He felt like his son had become more mature in the time that he haven't seen him.

'Children grow too fast.'

He thought of seeing his son and placed his hand on his head.

"Now, go forward, many of them are waiting to meet the 'Sleeping Pendragon'. Enjoy the banquet for today, no need to hold back because of your father."

Although Hubert wanted his son to grow up upright, he also didn't want to take away the joy of being a child from his son. 

He was young and there would be many opportunities for Eren to learn, if he makes a mistake then he could simply correct them. Holding him back because of his selfish desires didn't seem right to Hubert, so he pushed his son forward while he placed his hand over his wife's shoulder.

Eren scratched his head hearing his father tease him and walked forward with a smile.

Hubert and Sears watched their son walk forward with a smile on their face and both of them had the same thought in their head.

'He has grown so much…'
