Chapter 75: 75. Award Ceremony 2.
His head was in between his third girlfriend, Laura's, thighs as he spoke to her. "That's not nice, Laura. Can't you see I'm trying to protect my dignity over here? If everyone from the guild sees me now, I'll definitely become a laughingstock."
"Hmph," Laura harrumphed and cocked her head to the side. "Who cares about what others think? Unlike them, you won the Adult tournament and that's enough reason for me to be proud of the man I love."
"Indeed, they can say whatever they want to say, but our feelings for you won't change."
"We know how hard you trained to reach the top, and we'll do our best to support you."
All three girls showed their support to Tengen, letting him know just how much they loved and supported him.
Hearing the sweet words of his three beautiful girls, tears streamed down Tengen's cheeks and he immediately hugged Laura, placing his head on her boobs.
"You girls are the best, I love you all so much. I'm definitely going to fuck you all like bunnies tonight."
"Shut up and stop saying embarrassing things. Do you think that's supposed to make us happy?" Laura tried to shove him away but Tengen's grip on her waist made it difficult for her to do so.
The two other girls giggled, watching how Tengen shamelessly buried his face in between Laura's breasts.
Laura tried to shove him away once again when suddenly, she felt his lips on hers and her eyes widened in surprise.
Tengen pulled back to look at her flushed face before thanking her properly.
He kissed his other girls before thanking them as well.
Now, he had the courage to sit with his girls and dine with them, but just when he was about to settle down in his seat, he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Oh, there he is."
"Yo, Tengen, where have you been?"
"We've been looking everywhere for you."
"Eii!!" Tengen flinched at the sound of the familiar voices behind him.
He slowly turned around to face his three close friends from the guild. "Hey, fellas."
He inhaled deeply, ready for his friends to laugh and make jest of his failure to win against a ten-year-old.
His friend wrapped an arm around his shoulder and spoke. "Dude, you were amazing in the tournament."
"Huh?" Tengen was shocked and speechless by what he heard.
"Indeed, and to be honest, I never thought you could make it to the semifinals, but you really surprised me."
"Huh?"
"Dude, you'll surely be awarded the title of a noble, unlike us. I'm so jealous."
"Besides, he has three beautiful women by his side. I'm certain he's gonna have more now that he's a noble, right, Tengen?"
".,..."
"Anyways, congratulations man. I'm really happy for you."
"Yeah, it's nice to have a friend who's a noble."
Tengen couldn't believe what was happening.
He was completely stunned.
He expected his friends to be making fun of his inability to win against the prince, but none of them were doing as he had expected them to, instead, they were actually congratulating him on his achievements.
To his surprise, none of his friends said anything about his loss to Orion.
Their conversation continued until the royal family entered the hall, and everyone bowed their heads as the royal family took to their seats.
Once everyone was seated, the feast really began with the hall becoming as noisy as a marketplace.
The sound of laughter echoed within the hall and after a few minutes of eating and drinking, the six finalists were called out.
A thousand gold coins were given to the contestants who won the bronze medal in both the Junior and Adult tournaments.
This meant that Adrian was awarded one thousand gold coins. And in addition to the title of Viscount, he was also given a piece of land that he could use however he saw fit.
The same went for the contestant who won the bronze prize in the adult tournament.
Although, he was also given a couple of magical items and artifacts.
Luna was given the same thing as well, with the only difference being a bag of three thousand gold coins and a different title.
Tengen was awarded the title of Earl, in addition to five thousand gold coins, some magical artifacts, and some other things.
As for Orion, he won a mouth-watering ten thousand gold coins with some magical items and a large acre of land for him to do whatever he wanted with it.
With that out of the way, Evelyn gave a speech to all the contestants who participated in the tournament.
She also thanked the tournament officials and the elders for making this tournament a truly remarkable event, unlike all the other tournament officials in the past.
Seeing this, Orion and Mia used the opportunity to leave the hall with Elena trailing behind them.
Some of the nobles wondered why the prince and Princess Elena were leaving the hall. When Evelyn noticed their gaze, she told them that Orion was simply exhausted, so he was on his way back home to take a nap.
Of course, since the prince was still ten years old, everyone understood it would be normal for an elf his age to feel tired and exhausted.
So, they decided to focus their attention back on Evelyn's speech.
The speech continued for a while, and then Evelyn had a private chat with the remaining five finalists in a separate room.
Once she was done with this, she left, and everyone in the hall was allowed to drink and party like never before.
The queen had already announced her desire to give everyone a seven-day resting period starting tomorrow, and everyone couldn't wait to eat and drink to their heart's content for a whole week.
That was how the party of the award ceremony lasted for hours with Evelyn returning back to the castle the moment she was done with her duties.
Although Ariel and Karen accompanied her and kept her company, she wasn't really bored. She really wanted to see her precious little baby, so she hurried back home, knowing that Orion would be done sparring with Mia.
