Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights novel Chapter 324

Chapter 324: Selyne Pendragon

"Isolde?"

Arthur rose to his feet. He would have never recognised her if they were in a public space, or even if she spoke to him, but seeing her beside Godfrey made him realise that this was his daughter.

"Dad!" Isolde rushed and hugged him.

"You don’t know how much you’ve troubled my heart," Arthur sighed in relief as he patted her back, then looked at Godfrey and nodded.

Godfrey responded with a nod.

"I’m glad you’re back. It would have been a huge ordeal if you weren’t. The family is in need of a new head." Arthur went to his chair and looked at Isolde.

"Your mother and I have been waiting for you."

"Who do you have in mind?" Isolde asked as she sat on the chair on the other side of the desk.

Godfrey, who sat beside her, blinked at that question. Was that all she could say?

"You," Arthur replied. "I’m going to appoint you, but under the guise of an adopted daughter. Of course, the reaction of the family won’t be warm, but I’ve trained you for this. It’s time to lead the entire family."

"I..." Isolde couldn’t say a word. She needed a moment to calm herself. This was big, leading the prestigious dragon family, one of the greatest in the entire world.

Arthur continued after a brief pause. "The core information of the family won’t be in my hands anymore. Once I’m done with this, I can face Cain. I suspect a member of the Heads might still be a clone. Even if I’m mistaken, it’s better to be suspicious, however I’m willing to go all in and trust them. All of them."

Arthur saw Godfrey’s eyes sharpen at those last words.

’I’ll be your light while you help Isolde,’ Arthur said inwardly.

"Ahem." He cleared his throat, brought out a file and handed it over to Isolde.

"We’ve prepared everything. The world will know you as Selyne Pendragon, the twenty-one-year-old girl I adopted to replace the void of my dead daughter."

Isolde picked it up. Godfrey crossed one leg over the other. The plan was feasible. If people like him and her father, who were extremely close to Isolde, had doubts, then it would be almost impossible for anyone to recognize her.

One was a beautiful girl. The other, a gorgeous goddess.

"Our first obstacle will be the elders. Once they agree, we’ll prepare for the banquet, which I’ll be hosting in two days’ time. After your appointment, we’ll move straight to the masquerade ball. Every head is supposed to dance with their partner there," Arthur explained.

Isolde looked at Godfrey. "But as Selyne..."

"You don’t have a partner," Arthur completed what she was about to say. "You don’t have to worry though, Isolde is still Godfrey’s partner, there’s nothing separating both of you."

Arthur called for the butler, who stepped in a few moments later.

"Introduce Selyne to her room."

The butler bowed. "Miss Selyne, please come with me. Your mother will meet you shortly."

Isolde looked at Godfrey until she left the library and the door was shut.

"She acts like both of you have been separated," Arthur sighed in resignation.
