Chapter 901 The Ordination (2)


"I do," Orion responded, his voice calm and steady, nodding firmly.

The Village Chief handed the black crystal orb to Orion, who accepted it with a bow.

Then, the Village Chieftess turned to Reena, gesturing for her to step forward. "Reena, you have shown extreme care and dedication for our village. Do you plan to stand by Orion, to lead with wisdom and compassion, and to nurture our people?" The Village Chieftess asked.

Reena's eyes glistened with tears as she nodded. "I do," she responded, her voice firm as she fought back her emotions.Alll latest novels on novelbin/(.)com

The Village Chieftess handed the beautifully crafted staff to her, and Reena accepted it with a respectful bow.

The Village Chief and Village Chieftess then placed their hands on Orion's and Reena's shoulders. "By the power invested in us," they both spoke simultaneously, "we ordain you, Orion, as the new Village Chief, and you, Reena, as the new Village Chieftess. May your reign be long and prosperous."

The crowds immediately erupted with cheers, their voices reverberating across the market square and beyond.

Orion and Reena turned to face the crowds. Orion raised the black crystal orb to the sky, and Reena did the same, lifting her staff up high. The crowd's cheers grew louder as they began to chant.

"VILLAGE CHIEF ORION!!!"

"VILLAGE CHIEFTESS REENA!!"

"VILLAGE CHIEF ORION!!"

"You won't also be staying, Caretaker Shani?"Reena asked, surprise evident in her voice.

Caretaker Shani nodded, "Yes. Unlike previous years, a lot has happened to me this year, especially discovering that someone I'm interested in selfishly doesn't want me to attend. So, unfortunately, I won't be able to stay for this year's festival,"she responded, shaking her head and exhaling heavily. She glanced at Orion from the corner of her eyes with a sharp glint.

Orion averted his gaze, pretending as though he hadn't noticed anything. He focused on the other key leaders participating in the festival and enjoying themselves together. Some of them even looked his way as if expecting his arrival.

It only took a few seconds for Reena to grasp the meaning behind Shani's words. She looked at her in surprise and exclaimed, "You found a new partner, Caretaker Shani! That's wonderful!"

Contrary to Reena's expectations, Caretaker Shani shook her head in response, "No, right now, we are only lovers and still debating on how to continue our relationship in the future without stirring up any problems,"she responded.

"Oh!"Reena nodded, her expression serious, "I understand. If you need any help, just let me know. As the new Village Chieftess, I am sure I'll be able to help you settle whatever problems you might encounter,"she responded.

Caretaker Shani nodded, "I'm sure you will be able to help, Village Chieftess Reena,"she responded, smiling lightly, before shifting her attention towards Orion, "Village Chief Orion, can you please drop me off at the farm?"she asked.

'Cunning fox,' Orion thought, understanding what Shani was trying to do since there was no reason for her to have such a lengthy conversation with Reena.

"Okay, let's leave the stagefirst,so we don't cause a commotion or disrupt the festival before we leave," Orionresponded, nodding.

Nonetheless, he knew that Shani had no ill intentions and only wanted tosafelybe among the growing family of Orion's households.

Although Orion was sure that she wouldn't be able to reach far with the presence of Seraphina, Lyra, Ingrid, Derry, Crystalia, Elysia, Meldra, and Alya, he could still use this opportunity to gauge Shani's capabilities by seeing how she would succeed or how far she could go before he steps in and does things the way he had initially planned.
