Free Web NovelChapter 119: Chapter 119 System’s Wedding Gift
Elara’s POV
A collective intake of breath swept through the crowd. The cheers and celebration abruptly ceased, replaced by an ethereal voice that echoed across the heavens.
"Greetings, honored female. I am the Nexus World system. I have detected your wedding ceremony today, and I have prepared a gift for you..."
Another wave of stunned silence blanketed the square.
I watched everyone freeze, their faces painted with shock and disbelief.
That was the system!
In centuries of modern interstellar history, no one had witnessed the system personally delivering a wedding gift to a female. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Just who was I?
I could feel their burning curiosity.
Helena’s expression turned thunderous and dark.
Why? Why couldn’t this female be from the Sterling family?
Rosalind was equally shocked, but radiating joy. This was her sons’ mate! She felt proud and elated, even more thrilled than on her own coronation day.
Following the announcement, a luminous, glowing box descended from the sky and settled directly in front of me.
I extended my hand, but the moment my fingertips made contact, the box vanished into my storage.
I blinked in confusion. "Huh?"
The system continued, "Ms. Elara Sterling, congratulations on your wedding. Please accept a fireworks display in your honor..."
The instant my name was spoken, the square exploded into pandemonium.
"What?! She’s Elara?!"
"Impossible! Wasn’t Elara some powerless nobody? Why would the system acknowledge her?"
"Exactly! Even S-class females in the Valerion Empire have never received a system blessing. She’s a nobody! What makes her so special?"
"And how did she transform so drastically? I didn’t even recognize her! She looks nothing like that worthless girl anymore!"
I was speechless. Seriously? Do you have to trash-talk that loudly?
Before my husbands could respond, I spoke first, "Obviously because I’m gorgeous! Right, system?"
Oops, got carried away. Why would the system even answer?
The system replied instantly, "Affirmative."
The entire crowd was left completely speechless.
Why does it sound so indulgent? Did someone hack the Nexus World?
Rosalind was practically celebrating internally.
But up on the elevated platform, Helena’s heart plummeted. The moment the system said "Elara," all color drained from her face.
That’s really Elara?!
"I expelled her from the family! This could’ve been anyone... why did it have to be her?!"
Helena stumbled, nearly collapsing several times. Beatrix caught her and provided support. Helena stared at me desperately.
Is it... is it too late to undo this?
Beatrix wasn’t handling it any better. I had always been someone she could easily manipulate. Not only was I alive, but I was having this lavish wedding. And those beastmen husbands... any one of them was someone the Greeley family could never afford to offend.
And that "worthless" me had seven of them.
The gift processions extended endlessly, sparkling with treasures. A fleet escorted me, a dragon guarded the rear, and even the system itself sent blessings!
Does someone like me really deserve all this?
Beatrix’s nails pierced her palms, her eyes brimming with hatred, envy, and resentment.
Down below, the moment the system’s fireworks commenced, Silas, Finnian, Alistair, and the others stepped out of the carriage.
Kaelen transformed in a flash of light. The young man stood tall and refined in a perfectly fitted black tailcoat. He was devastatingly handsome, aristocratic, and incomparable.
Under the watchful eyes of the other five, Kaelen walked confidently over and joined the line. His elegance was captivating. Beneath his chestnut hair was a face like sculpted marble, and those jade-green eyes made it impossible for anyone to look away.
Unlike Silas and the others, Kaelen’s beauty possessed a fierce, untamed quality—so brilliant it was almost painful to observe directly.
I glanced over and nearly malfunctioned.
Holy hell!
Bet you’re regretting it now? Didn’t see this coming, did you? The dragon’s elite tier.
Regret what? He’s still mine. He’s elite tier, and I’m no pushover either. I’m stunning enough for him.
Ahem, stay composed.
"My lady," Kaelen said with a deliberate, playful smirk. "Satisfied?"
He’d been restraining himself all this time, waiting for this precise moment.
I was ready to completely lose it. He wasn’t just breathtaking—his voice was incredible too.
You’d better stay quiet, young man. Save that voice for tonight...
Composed? Not a chance. I want to make him surrender right now. I want to hear him whimper.
On the other side, Dorian could barely contain himself. He gasped with excitement and rushed toward me. Still barely an adult, he approached in his royal robes, bashful and endearing.
"Elara," he said in a gentle, melodic voice.
