Chapter 187: Save the judgement.
When the couple finally stepped out of the carriage at the mage estate, they were met with looks of judgement
and disgust from Elowin.
"He owns at least thirty houses in the kingdom, one in every city, five | think in this very capital. Do you know
how many bedrooms those are?"
Sigrid flushed. "Er, it was a moment of weakness." She stammered. "We were not even that loud."
Elowin pointed in the direction behind them and they turned around and saw looks of embarrassment of the
faces of their knights. The maids looked like they wanted to disappear into the ground. Mauve was grinning
widely and Mrs. Elsworth looked like she wanted to send Sigrid back to etiquette school again.
"You may not have been loud but no carriage rocks like that unless funny business is going on inside. | am glad
to see you back on your feet but goodness!!! Maybe next ttry your best to save the passion for your
bedroom." Elowin told her.
"We are young and passionate, whats to be embarrassed about?" Roland cleared his throat and quizzed. He
adjusted his cloak and took Sigrid’s hands. "Lets go and meet the new dogs."
The dogs had been delivered by Cosmos the previous night along with the rest of the familiars. They were in
tfor the familiar choosing ceremony of all the mages in Eldoria. In their uniforms, they had gathered at the
training grounds, all the familiars that the system had given Sigrid were relaxing in the open.
All of them had cfully tamed, they lacked hostility against humans but this did not mean they were docile. If
provoked, they were capable of killing.
"You are just in tfor the familiar choosing ceremony. Every mage is excited, even the king was invited for the
ceremony." Elowin shared.
He pointed them in the direction of the king and princess Elarin. They were like twins attached at the hip, it was
rare to see one without the other. They had taken it a step further on this day by wearing matching couple
outfits. Princess Elarin was in a printed dress with a long black cloak and the king, a silk printed shirt with a long
back cloak too. Eldoria’s fashion had beca lot more modern earth like.

head mage. When she returned to Roland's side a minute later, she was carrying viper in her hands. The griffin
had grown, it was now the ssize as Sunny.
"That does not look like a dog." Roland commented.
"Its a griffin." She patted the head of the creature gently. "My griffin to be exact. You should put the dogs aside
for a moment and pick a familiar."
The concept of mages and familiars was already popular thanks to Lady Blanche. The young mages were
showing their excitement openly, the older ones were trying to appear calmer but it could be seen on their faces
that they were just as excited.
Sigrid shoved Roland forward. "Go, the lord mage is calling for you. The younger ones will be learning from you
how to do it."
Roland had no idea how to choose a familiar but he grudgingly joined the rest of the mages and listened to the
Lord mage who was giving a speech.
"To choose a familiar is to choose a companion--a partner that you must love and care for all your life. Your
familiar will be a part of your soul, they will go through the best and darkest times of your life with you. I will
show you how to do it and then the crown prince will follow up."
He stepped into a circle and spread his arms wide, an incarnation flowed from his lips. Light burst forth from him
and swirled above his head, it shot out and entered a phoenix that was about to drink swater from the lake.
The phoenix was pulled by a magical thread and it appeared next to the head mage in the circle. The incantation
bound thtogether. To everyone's amazement, colors danced around the phoenix like a rainbow and then it
flew up, crying out to the skies in a haunting screech. The colors turned into flames and the phoenix emerged
from them, golden in color, its feather gleaming like embers.
It shrunk and jumped onto the Lord mage’s shoulders. He looked at the mages and said, "This is Fury, she is a
celestial phoenix, my strength and fire. From now on, she will followinto battle, as my strength increases, so
will hers. Now, it is your turn."
King Raff was the first to stand, he wanted a familiar too even though he was not a mage. To his eyes and
thoughts, a man that walked with the protection of a strong magical beast was safer than one who walked
without one.
"Raffi?" Elarin called him by the nhe had cto love. "Is something wrong?"
He shook his head and sat down again, watching with senvy as his son Roland entered the circle.
Elarin patted the back of his hand and said, "I spoke to the Lord mage and he said that there is a way to have a
familiar tied to you even though you are not a mage. You are the king, your blood is special. Among all men, who
is greater than you?"
King Raff's ego was boosted, he took Elarin’s hand and smiled at her gently. "Thank you for always thinking
about me."
"It is what we do for the ones we love," Elarin answered. "I wonder what familiar the crown prince will get, | have
heard that sare stronger than others."

"This is Void, she doesn't like to talk." Roland said.
That was all, and he stepped out of the circle with a large panther trailing behind him. As he approached Sigrid,
it changed shape, turning into a small black cat.
When it met Sigrid, it shot her a haughty look and turned its back on her, giving her a clear shot of the buttocks.
