Chapter 401 401:- "Goddesses Among Mortals"



Another maid carefully applied kohl to his lashes. Kohl, made from a mix of special ingredients like powdered antimony and black galena, made his gaze deeper and more intense. The tradition of using kohl had been followed by previous Istarin Kings, including his adoptive father, King Ahmed. Aditya found comfort in this practice, as it connected him to the respected line of rulers who had also used kohl. Some people believed that kohl had medicinal properties, which made its application even more intriguing.

Aditya pondered the origins of this tradition. Stories mentioned the Dry Savanna Continent, where people, regardless of gender, used kohl on their lashes. This cultural heritage had made its way to the Eastern region of the Dying Isle Continent through the very first Istarin King, who had journeyed far to establish his reign.

Although the Emperor didn\'t care much for fancy clothes, he understood the importance of presenting himself with dignity and grace. Aditya wore a splendid robe on this special occasion, carefully chosen by his wives, Alicia and Julia. The robe showcased a simple yet elegant style. It was made of the finest materials and had a rich midnight blue color that resembled the deep ocean under a moonlit sky. Golden details and decorations added a touch of luxury, emphasizing his esteemed position as Emperor.

Looking at his reflection, Aditya couldn\'t help but appreciate Julia\'s excellent taste. Her choices always enhanced his features and showcased his handsomeness, whether the outfits were extravagant or more modest.

In the mirror, Aditya saw a majestic figure before him, exuding confidence and humility. His blue eyes, framed by his flowing blue hair, had a captivating charm. The combination of his natural appeal, the use of kohl, and the elegant ensemble he wore elevated his appearance to timeless elegance. Aditya stood as a true Emperor, capturing the attention and admiration of all who beheld him.

Aditya sat there, his lips curling into a warm smile as he noticed Julia coming towards him. At that moment, he couldn\'t help but be amazed by her beauty. Julia looked absolutely stunning on this special day, her inner grace shining through. She wore a beautiful gown that was both modest and elegant, revealing just enough to leave a sense of mystery while highlighting her natural charm.

The dress, carefully selected for this occasion, showed off Julia\'s excellent fashion sense and her understanding of what suited her best. Its design was classy and sophisticated, with delicate details that added a touch of royalty. The fabric, a mix of rich colors, draped gracefully around her, enhancing her every move with a subtle allure. Its modest style reflected timeless elegance, allowing her to radiate her ethereal beauty without showing too much.

Aditya\'s gaze was drawn to Julia\'s captivating purple eyes, shining like sparkling amethysts. They held a depth that seemed to reflect her gentle and unwavering love for him. In that moment, he felt momentarily stunned, his heart skipping a beat as he looked at her.

Her gorgeous purple hair was styled in an elegant bun, revealing the smooth curve of her neck. Aditya felt an overwhelming desire to lean in and place a tender kiss on that flawless skin. It was a sight that stirred his deepest feelings and reminded him of his deep affection for her.

In Julia\'s presence, Aditya felt as if a goddess had graced the mortal world. Her regal demeanor, combined with her captivating appearance, exuded a special kind of magic. She embodied beauty and grace, captivating everyone with her innate charm.

As Aditya continued to gaze at his beloved wife, he couldn\'t help but marvel at how perfectly her captivating purple eyes, the vibrant shade of her hair, and the elegant simplicity of her dress complemented each other. Julia was a true epitome of elegance and refinement, a representation of royalty standing by his side.

"Looked enough?" With a teasing smile, the goddess asked. The goddess behind him. He can see her reflection in the large mirror.

"I can keep staring at your face forever," Aditya replied while staring at Julia\'s reflection in the mirror.

"Hehe!" Julia giggled. Her heart was overflowing with happiness, love, warmth, and pride.

"You look very handsome today."

"Thank you for the compliment." Aditya accepted the compliment. But then he noticed that his other fiancés were slightly pouting and looking a little bit jealous.

Alicia gracefully wore a traditional Kimono that represented her culture and traditions. Her family cherished these elegant outfits, which showcased their heritage through beautiful designs and vibrant colors.

Today, Alicia chose a stunning Silk Kimono. Its black fabric was adorned with captivating waves of deep blue. Delicate flowers, crafted with great care, adorned the cloth, bringing it to life. The intricate patterns told stories of nature\'s beauty, giving the Kimono a magical charm.

As Alicia embraced the Kimono, she seemed to transport herself to another time. Every detail enhanced her natural beauty, captivating those who saw her. Her lips were a bold shade of red, reflecting her strong spirit. Her eyes were accentuated with a touch of Kohl, making them even more captivating.

Alicia\'s long black hair cascaded like a waterfall, held together by a striking black-red ribbon. It contrasted beautifully with her silky locks, and her bangs framed her face gracefully, adding a touch of playfulness to her appearance.

But what truly caught Aditya\'s attention were the emerald gems that adorned Alicia. They sparkled with a mysterious glow, drawing his gaze toward their enchanting depths. The green gems spoke of mystery and power, adding to Alicia\'s captivating presence with a touch of allure and fascination.

"Well, how do I look?" Alicia asked seeing Aditya staring at her.

"Your eyes are incredibly mesmerizing. They\'re like sparkling gems. I can\'t take my off you."

Riya chose to wear stunning Silverthread Gowns, meticulously crafted by skilled elves. The gowns shimmered like moonlit silver, gracefully draping her slender figure. A beautiful moonlight Sash cinched her waist, its silvery threads shining with a celestial glow.

Her long, silver hair flowed down her back, matching the color of her enchanting dress. Her eyes, a light shade of purple, sparkled with a sense of mystery and wisdom. Riya\'s presence exuded a regal air, accompanied by a gentle aura of tranquility and grace. Though she appeared slightly more mature than her peers, it only added to her unique charm.

Aditya couldn\'t help but be captivated by Riya\'s beauty. The elegant Silverthread Gowns she wore showcased the exquisite craftsmanship of the elves, making her look like a true Elven Empress. With every move she made, Riya emanated a graceful and ethereal presence that enchanted everyone who laid eyes upon her.

On this particular day, Riya\'s radiance reached new heights. The Silverthread Gown hugged her curves, highlighting her natural beauty. The interplay of moonlight and fabric gave her a luminous glow, as if she stepped out of a fairy tale, embodying the majesty of the elven realm.

Aditya found himself unable to look away, completely mesmerized by Riya\'s allure. Her elegance, combined with her regal aura, left a lasting impression on his heart. In her presence, time seemed to stand still, as if the world paused to admire her magnificence.

As Aditya looked into Riya\'s eyes, he could feel that she wanted to hear kind words and feel appreciated. Even though she didn\'t say anything, her eyes spoke volumes, showing her longing for recognition and praise.

Aditya understood this unspoken desire and took a moment to find the right words to describe Riya\'s beauty. He wanted his compliment to reflect the magic he saw in her. With a sincere voice, he finally spoke up.

"Riya," he began, his words carefully chosen, "You look absolutely stunning right now. It\'s hard to put into words just how beautiful you are." His words carried genuine admiration, showing how deeply Riya\'s presence impacted him.

Upon hearing Aditya\'s heartfelt compliment, Riya\'s face lit up with a gentle smile. It was as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. His words brought her comfort and reassurance, dispelling any doubts she had about her own worth. In that brief moment, she felt a surge of happiness, knowing that her efforts to shine hadn\'t gone unnoticed. Aditya\'s compliment held so much power because it acknowledged Riya\'s inner longing and made her feel special.

Lara, just like Alicia, wore a stunning Kimono chosen specifically for her by Alicia. It was a special gift that Alicia bought for her.

The Kimono was a beautiful combination of red and black colors. Its vibrant hues blended together like flickering flames and dancing shadows. The fabric wrapped around Lara\'s slender figure, hugging her gently and showcasing the careful craftsmanship of the garment.

When Lara put on the Kimono, something magical happened. Her youthful features seemed to glow with a captivating charm, and her innocent gaze held a certain enchantment. A golden head chain adorned her forehead, adding a touch of elegance to her look. With every step, she emanated the grace and beauty of a celestial being.

Lara had a charm all her own, something that made her truly special. Her beauty carried a purity that went beyond the physical, captivating everyone who saw her. In her presence, time seemed to stop as people were entranced by her natural radiance.

On this day, Lara looked exceptionally stunning. The red and black Kimono draped around her like a dream, blending seamlessly with her vibrant spirit. The outfit emphasized her delicate features and accentuated her graceful movements, making her appear like a living embodiment of elegance and magic.

Witnessing Lara\'s beauty was a truly awe-inspiring experience. Her innocence and allure created an ethereal enchantment, drawing people\'s hearts and minds into her captivating orbit. She was a vision to behold, a shining example of grace and charm. Alicia\'s thoughtful gift had transformed Lara into a goddess among mortals. In the glow of her unique charm, she became a symbol of beauty and inspiration, capturing the hearts of all who had the privilege of seeing her.

"You all look so pretty today." Aditya\'s words reverberated through the air, carrying a sense of awe and admiration. To him, the four girls standing before him seemed to have descended from the heavens themselves, radiating an otherworldly beauty that captivated his senses.

Alicia\'s lips curved into a gentle smile, a reflection of the gratification she felt upon hearing his praise. The early morning hours she had devoted to perfecting her appearance suddenly held an even greater significance. Every moment spent enhancing her beauty had been rewarded by Aditya\'s kind words, affirming the effort she had poured into her preparation.

Riya\'s gaze remained locked on Aditya, her eyes capturing every detail of his countenance. In her heart, she yearned to etch this moment deep into her memory, preserving the image of his captivating handsomeness. She longed to capture every nuance, every line and contour, ensuring that the memory would remain vivid and cherished.

Lara, with her innocence and purity, blushed at the attention directed toward her. Overwhelmed by the intensity of the moment, she averted her gaze and shyly lowered her head. The rush of emotions stirred within her, leaving her unable to meet Aditya\'s eyes. Her innocent blush spoke volumes, revealing the depth of her feelings in the most tender and subtle way.

"Enough talking. Let\'s go. Others are waiting for us at the dining table." Julia grabbed Aditya\'s arm and pulled him with her.
