Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1688 Her Unpredicted Act
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Rocky and Valeria began to light up the incense andkowtowed in front of the divine censer which was on the high platform. Then, they inserted theincense they held into the censer.
Afterward, the engagement covenant was sent to the stage and was put in front of the two.
"Lady first," Rocky said as he let Valeria go first.
As she looked at the engagement covenant in front of her, Valeria's heart began to pump hard. Shebecame nervous, knowing that once she signed the covenant, everything would be irreversible, andshe would now officially become Rocky's fiancee.
However, despite her hesitations, she could not disobey Flora's order. Hence, all she could do wastaking a deep breath before signing her name on the covenant.
But then out of nowhere, Gloria stood up and shouted, "Hold on!"
At this moment, everyone's gaze fell on her again, including Gilbert, the elders, Rocky, and Valeria."Ladies and gentlemen, pardon me, but I cannot bear to keep quiet. I am not Odin's sister... I am hisfiancee!” Gloria exclaimed. At this point, she felt that there was already no turning back. Hence, shemustered all her courage and acted impulsively. Her main purpose was to destroy the engagementbetween the Godly Geniuses of the Ghost Fief and the Flower Fief, but things did not go as she hadplanned. Thus, she thought of a different way on how she could still achieve her goal. Now that shesuddenly announced that she was Rocky's fiancee, she wanted to see how Rocky and Valeria wouldreact to this.
Then, as soon as she issued her statement, the information she blurted out immediately caused anuproar as if a bomb was dropped in the midst of the crowd. Everyone looked at Rocky and Valeria,at a loss for words.
No one thought that such a development would disrupt the engagement ceremony. Obviously, theydid not expect that the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief already had a fiancee.
At the same time, Valeria was also dumbfounded. Although she didn't want the engagement to besuccessful, she didn't expect that something so shocking would actually happen.
"Odin, what is this woman saying? Who really is she? Do you care to explain yourself?" As the leaderof the Ghost Fief, Gilbert could not help but question Rocky in a stern tone. He, of all people, knewhow important this ceremony was. Thus, he would not allow anyone to mess things up. However,Rocky brought the woman here himself, saying that she was his sister. But all of a sudden, sheclaimed to be his fiancee. Hence, Gilbert wanted Rocky to take responsibility and tell the truth."There is no need to hide it. He knows who I truly am!" Gloria immediately blurted out as she cast acold glare upon Rocky.
"Odin, speak up!" Gilbert turned to Rocky again, urging him to explain everything.
"Well, I guess there is no need to hide it. It is now out in the open. What she said is true!" Rocky justshrugged his shoulders and played along to Gloria's ploy.
When everyone heard this straight from Rocky's mouth, loud gasps could be heard from the crowd.It was so sudden and was actually not that convincing.
"You!" Valeria's face turned crimson in anger. She felt rather humiliated and disgusted. She wasactually convinced that Rocky was just deliberately asking someone to disguise as his fiancee inorder to get out of this engagement.
At the same time, Elder Leticia's face also darkened as she was worried about how things wouldproceed from here.
Ironically, Gloria was the most surprised one. She only planned to cause quite a stir, but she didn'texpect that Rocky would also say that she was his fiancee. At this moment, she gritted her teeth,feeling that she fell into his trap again.
"However, although she is my fiancee, my relationship with her won't hinder me from myengagement with Valeria. I only have a verbal agreement with this woman. It means that there is noofficial document, and therefore, it does not really count,” Rocky explained.
"If that is the case, then it's fine. Nothing actually hinders a man to have several wives, let alonehave more than one fiancee. Miss Valeria, from what Odin said, you don't have to worry about it. Wecan still proceed with the signing of the engagement covenant, and we can deal with this womanlater. What do you think, Elder Leticia?" Gilbert asked in desperation. Although it was not the idealcondition, he still wanted to focus on the overall situation. Hence, he still wanted to have Rocky andValeria sign the engagement covenant and complete the ceremony.
"I agree. Valeria, sign it," Elder Leticia firmly said. Although she was also unhappy with the turn ofevents, it was clear to her that this was part of her job. She also assumed that Gloria was justsomeone who came here to destroy the ceremony. Hence, if she succeeded, things would justbecome more disadvantageous for the Flower Fief.
Casting a disdainful glare at Rocky, Valeria firmly held the pen and signed her name on thecovenant, with the sake of the Flower Fief in her mind. Then, she left her fingerprint on thedocument.
Seeing this, Rocky was a bit disappointed. He didn't expect that after everything she heard, shewould still be willing to sign the agreement. Now, he realized that he had been underestimating hercharacter.
At this point, Rocky had already done what he could to get out of the engagement, but it seemedthat he could not avoid it. Hence, he also took the agreement, signed his name on it, and left hisfingerprint.
However, Gloria was still unwilling to admit defeat. She had already gone too far to back out rightnow. Thus, without any hint of hesitation, she suddenly rushed towards Rocky, grabbed theengagement covenant and pen, and hurriedly signed her name on it. Then, she bit her finger andleft her fingerprint on the paper as well.
She did all of these in a split second that no one was able to stop her. In fact, before the peoplecould react, she had already finished the deed.
Thus, right now, the original two people's engagement covenant turned into a three people'sengagement covenant.
Seeing this inconceivable turn of events, all the people present were completely stunned. Never intheir wildest imagination did they expect that things would end up this way. Gloria actually did theunthinkable thing and also put her name on the document.
"There. I am also his fiancee now. It is in the official covenant,” Gloria said as she raised an eyebrowwhile staring at Valeria complacently.
"What the hell? Who are you? Why are you doing this?" Valeria was so astounded that she actuallywanted to smack Gloria. In her eyes, Gloria was just an unreasonable person who was deliberatelytrying to make things worse.
"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear earlier? I am his original fiancee!" Gloria retorted without showingany weakness.
Hearing this, Valeria seethed in anger, but she could not say another word anymore.
"Miss, what do you really want? Why are you causing such trouble here? Where are you from? Whoreally are you?!" Gilbert had snapped as well. He shouted at Gloria, revealing a cold expression onhis face. However, there was some confusion in his heart, telling him that this strange young womanwas not someone ordinary. Besides, who in their right minds would dare destroy an engagementceremony in full view of the public? Moreover, it seemed that she had a deeper purpose for doingthis.
"Fine! If you really want to know my true identity, then I shall tell you." Then, Gloria let out a cunningsmile and looked around the crowd with a charming expression. Then, she said in a sweet voice, "Iam the Godly Genius of the Genie Fief, Gloria Hu! I am just here to be with my fiance. So, pleaseforgive me if I offended you."
As soon as she finished her sentence, the square fell in silence. Obviously, everyone was renderedspeechless and was in shock upon learning her identity. It turned out the Godly Genius of the GenieFief wanted to be a part of the engagement that was originally between the Godly Geniuses of theGhost Fief and the Flower Fief. In the end, she got her wish, and the three of them were nowengaged—a first in the history of the Shura Race.
