After helping all of them, who were half-kneeling, up, the ceremony was about to begin.

Skadi stood in front of them, carefully examining the youngsters in front of him. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but then his lips slowly pursed into a smile.

"To be honest, you're the most beautiful person I've ever met." Anna handed over a small box that was wrapped in a sky-blue velvet cloth. Queen Skadi opened the box and took out a medal from inside. She placed it on the left side of his chest. Then, she stepped back, stood still, and clapped her hands in satisfaction.

Even though Liang Yue's understanding of the royal family wasn't as good as that of the citizens, it made her quite nervous. In modern times, it was as if a foreign soldier was suddenly awarded a medal by Queen Elizabeth. In reality, she would still be nervous.

However, what happened next caused everyone to stare wide-eyed. Liang Yue also almost suffocated. After the woman placed the medal on Liang Yue, she didn't walk towards the next person. Instead, she walked to Liang Yue's side, lightly tiptoed, and gave him a light kiss on the cheek.

The air in the entire square quieted down, and no one knew what was brewing. Perhaps it was because they were still immersed in what had just happened and had yet to react.

Anna looked at Skadi angrily, and even the hand holding the medal began to tremble. Celia and Xiyue also didn't understand what was going on, how did the lucky ceremony come to kiss?

However, he didn't think much about it. After all, in the modern era, this place could be considered as a European country. This wasn't the first time someone had kissed him on the cheek.

He stood at attention and saluted Queen Skadi.

He didn't understand the etiquette, but there was no mistake in saluting. Queen Skadi covered her mouth and smiled, she seemed to like the information even more about a twenty-seven-year-old boy, reminding her of the scene she had seen when she woke up in the grass. If she had met him a dozen years earlier, she would have fallen for him.

"Alright, put it down!" She gently waved her hand at Liang Yue, telling him to put his hand down.

Liang Yue glanced at the purple colored gem in front of her chest, feeling indescribably happy.

Although there was one part that was different, although Queen Skadi also kissed Salia, the parts of her body were different from that of Liang Yue's. The Queen kissed Salia on the forehead, looking at her as if she was looking at her own child.

Surprisingly, everyone was kissed by the Queen, but when it was Huya's turn, it made his face turn red. Although he looked like a little boy, his actions were unusually mature, and he really didn't expect that because of the Queen's kiss, his body didn't even emit any cold air at that time.

After the awards ceremony was completed, the eight of them saluted the Queen and walked in the direction of the academy's team.

"Today's awards ceremony is over. I hope everyone will have a good time during the afternoon ceremony!" The mayor of Hetonmar was standing on the podium, reading the last words. The sun had already shifted slightly above his head.

All of a sudden, the surrounding people burst out with colorful lights. The colourful magic array flickered in the sky, and the light of the sun could not be concealed as well. The citizens cheered.

The silver guards slowly entered the palace. As soon as Queen Skadi got off the carriage, she kept giving instructions to the ministers beside her. Although her words were pleasant to listen to, they were filled with the dignity of a ruler. At the same time, they were filled with vigor and a credible charm.

During these ten years, the Queen's political team had been fully formed. Other than the few supreme councilors, the remaining officials were all the hot-blooded aristocrats who supported the Queen back then. Their ideals had now become a reality, they were no longer the nobles of those countries, and the loyalty and execution of these ministers were undeniable.

The head maid of the palace came up and whispered something into the ear of Queen Skadi. Her red lips parted slightly, and she laughed.

She quickly entered the Hall of Etiquette with Anna and sat on the queen's seat. She carefully examined the information on the table, then took out her seal and imprinted the mark of Queen Skadi on it. After confirming this with Anna, she raised her head and looked at the people waiting below.

"..."

"It's my honor!" Sauta's throat was a little dry. He stood straight and looked at the dignified woman on the throne.

He was the king of beasts who had been invited to the palace of Horton Mal, and he was now facing the ruler of one of the largest nations on the continent. Before he had come, Klach and Pinocchio had been taught the etiquette of the Sauta people, and the situation was tense for Sauta.

He could feel nine pairs of eyes staring at him. Naturally, it was the student union and the Templar Church, the Queen had agreed to meet with the King of Beasts, and all of them were here to protect the Queen. The palace was filled with magic, and whenever Sa'uta threatened Queen Skadi, they would not hesitate to kill her.

However, Queen Skadi was also shocked by the way the beast kings of the forest looked like humans. However, it was only after Anna's gentle explanation in her ear that she nodded her head.

"I hope we can get along together!" The Queen smiled at Sauta and said, "This is what we want."

Liang Yue walked over from the side with a stack of documents. He didn't know why he had suddenly become a secretary.

Sauta wanted to greet him, but he coldly waited for a moment, so he could only withdraw his hand. Then, he took back the stack of documents and started to read it carefully.
