Dragon King's Harem Chapter 292. The Healer Tribe II
The unicorn-drawn carriage rolled to a stop. Evelina and I exchanged excited glances. In front of us stood the Healer Tribe Palace, a literal masterpiece of light and magic that looked like something out of a dream. Its glowing exterior shimmered with an almost magical light, like snow mixed with light mana. If someone had told me I’d stepped into a fairy tale, I wouldn’t have argued.
I stepped down from the carriage and couldn’t help but stare. The place was unreal—like it was sculpted by pure magic. The glowing white walls seemed alive. This wasn’t just a palace; it was a sanctuary. The air even smelled cleaner here, like a mix of fresh rain and blooming flowers.
Waiting at the grand entrance was the Healer King, his queen, and a group of high-ranking officials, all smiling warmly like they’d been looking forward to this moment. Their presence made one thing clear, we weren’t just visitors; we were VIPs. Evelina looked both excited and nervous, her eyes darting toward the welcoming party. I gave her a small smile, hoping to reassure her before turning my attention to the Healer King and Queen.
The Healer King stepped forward, his regal vibe on full display. Despite his commanding presence, his smile was warm and inviting. “Welcome to our humble palace, Dragon King,” he said, his voice smooth and sincere.
I almost laughed.
Humble?
This place was far from humble. Sure, it was smaller than my palace, but calling it humble was a stretch. Still, I appreciated the sentiment and returned his smile. “Thank you for the warm welcome,” I said, keeping it polite but genuine.
Then his attention shifted to Evelina. His face softened, his smile growing wider with what could only be described as pure dad energy. “Welcome home, Evelina,” he said, his voice thick with emotion.
Evelina’s face lit up, and her voice trembled with joy as she responded, “Father, I’m home.” She didn’t hesitate for a second, practically sprinting into his arms for a hug. It was the kind of heartfelt reunion I'd see in movies. Then she turned to her mother, pulling her into another tight embrace.
I stood back, watching the scene with a mix of awe and... maybe a little envy. Family moments like this were foreign to me—if I’d ever experienced them, I couldn’t remember. Still, it was hard not to feel moved seeing the sheer joy on their faces.
When they finally let go, the Healer King’s eyes glistened with pride as he looked at Evelina. “Congratulations,” he said, his voice brimming with happiness. “You’ve become the Dragon King’s wife,” he added, his tone teasing just enough to make Evelina laugh.
“Thank you, Father,” she said, her voice full of pride and affection. Beside him, the Healer Queen’s smile was just as warm. “Congratulations, my dear,” she added. “Your dream has come true.”
Evelina’s cheeks flushed, but her smile widened. “Thank you, Mother,” she replied, her happiness practically radiating from her.
Then, she turned to me, her eyes glowing with gratitude. “And I have you to thank for this,” she said softly.
Her words caught me off guard, but I smiled back. “I’m glad you’re happy,” I said, my voice just as sincere.
“You’ve treated me so well,” she continued, her voice filled with appreciation. “I couldn’t be happier to be by your side.”
I nodded, feeling a rare warmth in my chest. “I’m just glad I could be there for you,” I replied, keeping it simple but honest.
The Healer King shifted his gaze to me, his expression serious but full of gratitude. “Thank you for your kindness and protection,” he said earnestly.
“It’s been an honor,” I replied, nodding respectfully. “Your tribe and your daughter deserve nothing less.”
With a gracious gesture, the Healer King motioned toward the palace entrance. “Please, come inside. We have much to discuss,” he said.
We stepped into the palace. I was once again struck by its beauty. The walls were adorned with crystals that glowed softly, casting the entire space in a warm, enchanting light. It wasn’t just stunning; it was serene, almost fragile, like every detail had been carefully crafted to reflect the healer tribe’s values.
The grand hall was breathtaking, its centerpiece a massive table laden with dishes that smelled as good as they looked. The spread was impressive, clearly prepared to accommodate everyone, including Eir and my dragon soldiers.
The Healer King gestured for us to take a seat, his demeanor as welcoming as ever. Before sitting down, I cleared my throat, drawing everyone’s attention. “Before we get started, I’d like to offer a token of gratitude,” I said, my tone serious but friendly.
