The Bored Immortal Chapter 226

The elder recited some things from a sacred book, after which he opened a box in which there were two rings placed. One was a white studded diamond, while the other was black studded.

Both were shimmering and had a pure shine to them. Even an ordinary man with a glance could deduce that these two rings were priceless.

Viktor raised his brows, seeing how beautiful these rings were, and wondered which one was his. He knew this engagement ceremony was just to establish their status as 'fiance' to each other by putting on this ring. Nothing more, nothing less.

The elder looked at Viktor and said, "You can pick the ring on the left and put it on her."

Viktor nodded and picked the white ring before looking at Nyissa, whose cheeks were dyed in a delicate pink, feeling her heart beating rapidly by just standing before him and going through this ceremony.

She didn't know why she was feeling so nervous, yet a bit of anticipation as well.

Viktor gently held Nyissa's hand and inserted the ring onto her finger as he looked at her. He could feel the slight shakiness in her hand and inwardly chuckled, seeing how even someone like her can be this nervous in moments like these.

Nyissa's eyes were glued onto her finger as Viktor put on the ring.

Karn, who had stood up just like the other chiefs for the ceremony, had a cold expression on his face. His eyes were focused on Viktor without making it obvious while his fingers were restlessly tapping on his stick.

He was not only feeling angry about this ceremony but was also worried about his missing son. To add to his worries, his servants even found a dead body in the spot where his son was last seen.

If it was any other time, he could have made a huge issue out of this. But only he knew why his son was there and what he was trying to do. After all, nothing escapes his eyes or ears. And precisely because of this, he had his hands tied and had no choice but to find his son by himself wherever he was.

If he had the chance, he wouldn't have let his son carry out such a stupid act, but it was too late when he came to know about it.

Karn was sure his son wasn't the type to simply run away or go missing on his own. But that somebody definitely did something to him and inwardly swore to make that person pay.

"It's your turn now, Young Mistress," The elder reminded as Nyissa seemed to be in a daze.

Nyissa's eyes fluttered as she realized Viktor had already finished putting the ring onto her finger, and she was just dumbly staring at it.

"Aww...look at our Young Mistress. I have never seen her be so flustered. I guess a man in your life can change things," One of the young women among the crowd whispered excitedly to her friend.

"Sigh, he is so dreamy and handsome. Are all foreigners of other races this handsome? The vampires I have come upon are handsome, alright, but they look as if they are sick or something. As for the werewolves, they are hot, but they look dumb? Ha….this guy is perfect."

"Of course, he would be perfect. After all, he is our Young Mistress's fiance. It would be a crime to not be perfect when one is going to be her husband," The girl said as a matter of fact to her friend.

"They both indeed look so good together. A perfect match, I would say," Another girl behind them chimed in.

Meanwhile, the older generation had quite different opinions,

"Sigh, our poor Young Mistress, having to marry someone of foreign race. What will happen to her future?"

"Shh, lower your voice. Even if we don't like this, we can't voice our dissatisfaction openly lest we are responsible for disrespecting this auspicious ceremony. Maybe this is fate, and we just have to accept it."

"Hmph, if he dares mistreat our Young Mistress, this old one will make sure he gets a good spanking!" A fat old man who seemed as if he was already one foot into the grave said in a petulant tone while trying his best to puff up his chest.

"Grandfather, please lower your voice! What will the patriarch think of us?"

The grandfather immediately closed his eyes and stood silently, remembering that he was not in his home but at a public ceremony.

Am I going senile?

Nyissa slowly picked the black diamond ring and looked at Viktor for a moment briefly to see what his expression was out of curiosity, only to lower her gaze again upon seeing how his burning gaze was still on her.

Nyissa's father, Voroz, was smiling from the side as if the worries he had been carrying in his heart for all these centuries were slowly being lifted, and the moment Nyissa puts on the ring on Viktor's finger, his heart would surely feel a lot lighter.

Karn was increasingly getting restless, and this didn't go unnoticed by Narin Fujo, the fourth chief of the Fujo Clan. She narrowed her eyes, wondering what was up with him, and Karn, feeling her gaze, immediately calmed his fingers down.

Narin wondered if Karn was upset with this whole thing since she knew his son had been trying to court Nyissa for a long while.

'Fate indeed surprises us…' She sighed inwardly, thinking how unexpected all this was.

Just as Nyissa was about to insert the ring onto Viktor's finger, Karn was about to say something aloud when suddenly a head servant rushed towards the patriarch and whispered something in his ears.

"Hold this ceremony immediately!"

An elderly voice suddenly boomed throughout the entire outer courtyard as people felt their ears ringing from such a powerful voice.

Nyissa was startled by this voice and momentarily paused as she turned her head to see who was brazen enough to shout in a ceremony like this while Viktor turned his head to see who this nasty person was to intrude on their ceremony like this.
