Chapter 21- Arinphium (Royal kingdom)

In the heart of the Arinphiam Empire lies the Royal Kingdom called Arinphium, a vast expanse of land spanning 781,909 square kilometers, entirely dedicated to the royal family.

This unique kingdom functions as an autonomous nation within the empire, where every facility, service, and institution exists solely for the benefit of the royal family and their needs.

The kingdom is centered around the grand Royal Palace, a sprawling architectural marvel that serves as the hub of power and luxury for the Royal family of the Arinphiam Empire.

Surrounding the palace is a complex network of architectures, each designed to serve the royals with the utmost luxury and efficiency. Hospitals equipped with the finest medical technology, exclusive hotels for royal guests, several airports tailored for private royal flights, and even the royal treasury—these are divided into parts and have each one of these secure futures around all the heirs' palaces.

Indeed, for example: Prince Orion Arinphiam owns an enormously luxurious palace, complete with a private airport, a high-class hospital staffed with professional medics, and dozens of mansions that are lavish enough to be considered part of the prince's palace. Additionally, the palace includes all the amenities of a modern metropolitan city, all tailored to the prince's personal interests.

Some of the heirs have gone as far as permitting Pleasure houses on their land, generously given to them by the Royal Palace. Each heir receives such substantial funding that their net worth could rival that of a small developing nation.

So, the whole Arinphium, which is the Royal kingdom of the Arinphiam Empire, was likely private and property of the whole Royal family where their descendants have everything they needed without any need to take a single step out of the kingdom.

Similarly, there were several high-class hotels and mansions available for the nobles who gathered in the gatherings by a particular heir.

Of course, it depended on the funds allocated to that particular Heirs, which determine the state of their whole territory, but there was a minimum amount of 10 million Imperial Crowns per month fixed for each heir.

Taking into account that those favored by the Emperor or Empresses received a sum large enough to surpass 30 million Imperial Crowns every month, with Prince Orion Arinphiam receiving 21.2 million Imperial Crowns and Princess Katherine Arinphiam receiving 10 million Imperial Crowns.

The value set for each heir varied, with the Royal palace always being relied upon to allocate a specific amount to oversee the assets within their territory. While their territory division appeared like Thaloris, they were not prohibited from visiting each other, and even their servants were allowed to move around freely according to the personal laws set by the heirs.

Within the provided amount, Princess Katheria Arinphiam had well managed her territory with availability of several hotels for the guests and personal mansions reserved for high-status nobles who will arrive in her gatherings.

Though the territory of lands under Princess Katherine Arinphiam could be considered the largest among all the heirs, it was left and purchased by her Mother who was previously one of the Empresses, but after her death the value provided to Princess Katheria kept decreasing until presently hitting the limit.

Building the Assets is hard but more is maintaining those assets with no other source, a large amount of land under Princess was used for agriculture and businesses to create some wealth while 10 million allocated amount was used to maintain other facilities from Airport, hospitals, and all the services.

Today, however, due to presumed of several noblemen, Various Hotels and Mansions for high-status nobles like Counts and Members of the Duke family were arranged according to hierarchy.

Following the way towards the grand mansion allocated for Marquess Croceaus to rest after tonight's gathering, a convoy of a dozen luxurious cars, including a fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantoms, Mercedes-Maybach S-Class limousines, and Bentley Mulsannes, moved in perfect unison. Each vehicle, shimmering under the moonlight, was a testament to his immense wealth and status, turning heads as they glided silently through the asphalt.

Finally, the convoy reached a grand mansion with a line of servants waiting for his arrival, appearing to belong to Croceaus territory but arrived a few days ago with the Marquess inside the Royal kingdom, but the number appeared substantially increased due to the presence of freshly arrived servants who, after hearing the orders from Marquess, had arrived using the private jet flights alongside the doctors.

"Master, we have arrived." Coming out of a phantom behind the limousine, Alfred swiftly showing his professionalism arrived and bowed with his hand placed on the chest as the chauffeur opened the car's door revealing a man wearing a bathrobe with the silver hairs exiting it as her eyes appearing colder than moon observed the view in front of him.

"Quickly bring it." Avendial ignoring everything glanced toward Alfred who calmly nodded before glanced towards a maid who borough a glass of crystal clear water and a tablet and kept her head lower with no expression showing on her face but only professionalism.

"Rivia." Avendial standing at a distance glanced at the woman who exited the car with her purple hair fluttering in the breeze with eyes striking on him as he held the pill and glass of water as offered her adding, "Eat this."

"...." Rivia without saying much since everything happened with her until now was already heavenly enough gulped down the pill before drinking the water to swallow it.

For her, even if she died today then she will have no regrets, Since today was the most beautiful day for her.

"Alfred, arrange the bath." As Avendial proceeded towards the mansion, servants lined up on either side, bowing their heads in respect. Alfred followed closely behind, nodding in acknowledgment, while several maids quickly scurried ahead to ready the bath.

'What was that tablet?', a maid from the Croceaus state who served the main mansion of the family, peeked with her eyes towards Rivia who was slowly folksy behind as she well aware of this woman's psychopathic nature.

"Hey you, follow me." Suddenly halting in her path, Rivia looked at the maid causing her to flinch and slowly raise her head only to see Rivia's impassive yet cold amethyst eyes looking down on him as she added, "Alfred wants to meet you."

"Sorry?" Young maid felt confused looking at the woman, trying to understand why the head Butler, who was also her father, will try to meet her when he had just seen him leaving with the Master right now, prompting him to try to understand as inquired, "But Miss, Father—I mean Head Butler didn't say anything."

Rivia tilted her head with her eyes observing the maid from head to toe before leaning in near her ears as whispered, "Follow me or I will kill that father of yours."
