Theo who saw everyone including Lucius who was usually calm, now looked at him with a strange look, began to frown, not knowing what was going on.
'I knew the Udumbara flower was a rare variety, yet what was the need to look at me excessively like this?' Theo muttered in his heart.
"Hmmm, they may realize something hidden from the Udumbara Flower that no one knows about!" Tiankong who from earlier was silently watching beside Theo, gave his gaze.
"Young man! You may indeed be destiny-bound with our House! So now, I openly accepted sincerely the previous engagement advice!" Said Lord Malforis Suddenly, after a long silence looking at Theo.
Hearing that, Theo again frowned, strange with this drastic change of attitude from the old man before him.
"My lord! May I know why you suddenly changed your attitude so drastically?" Theo asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
"Hmmm... How should I explain it? I don't know where to start!" Said Lord Malforis.
"Dad, let me!" Lucius said, intending to help his father explain.
"Hmmm.." Lord Malforis did not reply, only nodding briefly, signaling that he had no problem Lucius explained.
"Young Master Theo, let me explain it briefly and clearly! This is also a sign that we have good intentions about the friendship you offered earlier!"
"Again, after this you are also half a member of the House Braveheart family for being engaged to my sister!" Lucius said, while re-wearing his sly smile.
'Change this! Just an ordinary explanation! But with a little play of a few words, he seemed to give me a precious gift!' Theo muttered in his heart.
"Hahhahhaa.. I'm starting to like this young man!" Tiankong responded.
"Hmmm.. of course! You guys have some similarities in certain things! Especially in terms of cunning playing words!" Dengus.
"Hmmmm. You say it's a big crime! Are you not aware? You do it yourself often! You don't know yourself!" Tiankong snorting back.
When Theo and Tiankong were still engaged in small talk, Lucius began to explain why everyone in the main hall had surprised expressions, tend to be amazed when Aria took out her knife that has been melted with Crystal Plant from Udumbara Dew flower.
Lucius begins his sentence by explaining to Theo, some hidden facts stored in the Udumbara Flower Variant.
This mysterious attitude is in the form of, only people with great destinies will succeed in attracting the interest of this flower variety. People with such a great destiny will have a strange impulse when near the Udumbara flower, as if they were called to pluck it. It was as if the Udumbara flowers were indeed intentionally waiting for them to pluck and retrieve the Crystal Plant.
In other cases, people with this great destiny may not have the strange impulse to pick Udumbara flowers, but if people with this great destiny are around the flower, then there is no such thing, even though it was not the person who was being waited for by this flower, they would not reject or strike back at the person who wanted to pluck it.
Another case if it is a person with a mediocre destiny who tries to pluck it. The Udumbara flower will wildly attack the person, defending itself as hard as it can, if it still fails because the opponent is too strong, and so on, then the Udumbara Flower will commit suicide by blowing up its Crystal Plant.
"So it's like that!" Lucius closed his explanation.
"Hmmm.. If I may deduce, then you would say, that whoever succeeds in picking and retrieving the Crystal Plant from this flower, then he is the one who has a great path of destiny?" Ask Theo.
"That's right! Our House Braveheart has proven it many times in the past!"
"We like to have our own destiny with this flower, because every certain period of time, there will always appear people who managed to find and pick this flower Variant in our House!"
"And some of the ancestors who succeeded in picking it, in our House historical records, have always been important pillars in the House, listing its name in a great way that happened in Gaia Land in their respective times!"
"Therefore, in the last few decades, we have ceaselessly sought this Udumbara Flower, to increase the prestige of House Braveheart to even greater heights!" Lucius closed his explanation steadily, while looking at Theo with a gaze as if Theo was his personal item.
"Hmmm.. What an interesting story! That explains why Aria was acting a bit exaggerated when I managed to get then showed this Crystal Plant in front of her!" Theo muttered.
"So, everyone who gets it, means having a great destiny huh? No exception to anyone?" Theo muttered again, saying to himself.
"Boss... does that mean?" Arthur said Suddenly beside Theo.
Hearing that, Theo who knew what Arthur was going to ask, immediately stopped him from continuing to ask with a sharp look. And as soon as he saw Theo's gaze, Arthur who understood, immediately shut his mouth tightly, did not ask.
Lucius who had been observing Theo, inevitably became curious about the attitude of these two people, moreover he also had time to hear Theo's murmur.
"Young Master Theo, is there anyone else, who you know has successfully picked another Udumbara Flower variety?" Lucius asked, trying to guess the direction of the conversation as well as the attitude of Theo and Arthur.
"Ohhh... no, why do you ask that? Don't overexpect! I know what you're thinking! And that's not true!"
"From just now I was just trying to think, what by giving the Aria Crystal Plant the Udumbara flower that I picked, then I will share the great destiny that I will live with it?" Theo said, putting on an interested facial expression, trying to shift the direction of the topic.
Hearing that, Lucius only gave a brief nod, seemingly unwilling to ask any further, although within the look in his eyes, there were still points of doubt.
While Theo, quietly beginning to breathe a sigh of relief, it is a bad thing if House Braveheart, who considers the Udumbara flower to be an important item in the long journey of his House's history, knows that besides Theo, the, his older brother Issabela also recently managed to find and pick another Udumbara Flower Variant.
After all, Theo had to close this information tightly, not to let anyone else know that his brother was also one of the people with a great destiny.
"Hmmm.. alright, because all the business is done, and an agreement has been reached! We'd better end this meeting! We'll discuss more about the official engagement, tomorrow after you've rested!" Said Lord Malforis, disbanding the meeting in the main hall.
