《Tales of The Celestial Prince》Mommy Day V Aurora's Auction I
Advertisement
Before then immediately being shushed by an adorably serious young prince before then switching to Aurea since she was clearly needed! Surprising everyone even more causing Aurea to then immediately flick poor Julius's forehead.
"I suppose you wouldn't know what mother Klarine's Unique Ancestral Inheritance entails but my appearance should be enough I suppose? I'm Imperial Princess Aurea Klarine Serpa of The Ophidian Empire, and strictly speaking, both Aurel and I are the 'same' person but 'separate' entities due to the uniqueness of the inheritance, but with that out of the way.. unlike Aurel, I'm much less agreeable!"
"So I won't repeat myself, so listen well little Imperial Prince.. what I gifted you is something I had learned from Lady Frostma, you need only go buy some magic crystals no matter if their Legendary or Sacred, and absorb their memories, experiences, and if you're lucky their Elemental Rules"
"After that, eat that fruit and find a nice girl to drink a bottle of that Bloodwine with! Simple enough? And avoid anyone from The Vares Family! Those brats are still under investigation for playing with those generic celestial pigs of The Vestial Empire! Except for Molly.. she's the exception to everything!"
Aurea playfully 'suggested' scaring poor Julius to no end since that's simply what royal serpentess's did best.
So to put it simply they were scary by default making it only natural! Causing poor Julius to then tearily nod and Aurea to then playfully pat his head and Aldra to then gently shake her head.
Before then sending poor Julius a graceful wave of loving mental messages calming him down.
Before then adorably nodding and leaving after a reassuring hug from Aldra while as for Aurea after playing with Celes and kissing her cheek to then finally revert back to the young prince and returned to Aldra's lap.
And after what felt like twenty minutes or so of adorable antics Aldra had soon made even more of her own plans..
Be it from inviting Lady Lian, Leo, The Vares Family, and even poor Julius who thanked her but still refused resulting in Aldra reluctantly accepting it while as continuing with the plans with the others.
Causing the young prince after blissfully hugging his mommy's arm to then remember something.. there were auction houses!
Vina had reminded him while visiting one all the while suggesting several others causing the young prince to then excitedly whisper into both Aldra's and Celes's ears while Lian had left to reprimand some mages.
Resulting in the young prince subsequently choosing to wait before he mentioned it to the others.
In truth there wasn't a rush.. he simply wanted to take a break strangely enough.
His mommy might need one so just in case that was the case he wanted to make sure! Resulting in after the break the young prince finally whispering it in both Celes's and Aldra's ears causing Celes to then playfully stretch.
Before then leaning on Aldra's arm.
"What do you think 'sister' Aldra? Little Auri could see how prices change when competition is introduced! Thinking of competition.. Aurel should Aurora's 'Ethereal' Golden 'Crystal' Card!"
"What? She asked me to tell you! Plus it serves that Godling right for bragging about being The First Golden Goddess!"

Celes adorably confessed having felt she should act as if they were alone meaning she didn't have to keep up appearances when it's only Aldra and the young prince much like she does with Annie and Amber.
Causing Aldra to then gently nod before then gently kissing Celes's forehead.
"Sister Celestia is truly precious, I'd imagine it'll prove quite educational for our sweet prince?"
Aldra gently teased surprising Celes and causing both the young prince and Aldra to then softly giggle, in truth the reason why Aldra was quite comfortable and replied in such a teasing manner was no doubt because of Celestia's own words.
Meaning Celes had offered a branch and let her guard down as she did for Annie and Aldra knowing this had instead pushed the branch aside and went directly in for a hug!
Despite appearances and the fact alone that Celes was in fact a goddess Aldra didn't pay it any mind.
Be it a goddess or any lost child Aldra was a mommy first!
Allowing her to open her heart and accept Celes as a sister much like she had done with Selphie and Silas, albeit Aldra herself was in fact already an expert of the gods at this point in the way she was both well-liked and even loved by many of them.
Without even needing to meet! She had already assisted some when they had asked for favors resulting in a situation where Aldra had many yet unknown amounts of favors 'owed' to 'her' by quite a few gods.
Even The Goddess of The Brown Tailed Inari, Sea Elves, Blood Elves, and any other hidden ones?
As long as it wasn't unforgivable criminal offenses, she'd generally accept such as pardoning an Inari who was a spy for The Empire of Vulpes millenniums ago or any amount of innocent and good deed-worthy things?
Resulting in Aldra generally saving all of such favors until needed.
Meaning not only did she know the gods but she knew their nicknames, and could even have a talk over tea if she truly wanted, favor or not!
This would also mean if let's say a Void God attempted to directly attack one of her children, such gods would both warn and quite literally stop such a Void God for the relationship alone!
Aldra was simply that loved and kind, meaning calling Celes a sister and perhaps even visiting her dreamworld for a glass of wine and even talking to her about her sweet prince's progress as a God.
Essentially opened the door to Celes joining them much as Selphie and Silas had.
Aldra simply valued the company and perhaps even loved it.
Causing Celes to then adorably pout before then playfully poking the young prince's and mini Rory's cheeks.
"Hmph.. I really need to find a better title for you. The Celestial Queen of The Elves should be your official title since many simply consider it an unofficial nickname since ordinarily none celestial royals don't receive those honorifics but for you, I'd like you to accept my High Elf Royal Bloodline even if you never use it?"
"So think about it! Thin-Thinking of Celestial Honorifics which auction house should we visit first?! Aurora's might be more entertaining since she has two in the capital! One in The Golden Bank of Aurora and another as an actual auction house? She owns several others but they're joint ventures which she owns most of?"

Celes adorably explained causing Aurora having only watched to then both immediately and tipsily send a wave of mental messages to all three and asked Aldra to visit her Bank's Auction since it'll be hitting two birds with one stone.
Along with attempts to bribe Aldra along with even informing her of the title she thought of!
Causing Aldra to then gently shake her head before then replying to such a wave causing Aurora to then quickly appear before then realizing she forgot her boots after getting dressed?!
Causing her to then quickly hop on Celes's lap and putting them on? It was embarrassing for her to say the least! Causing her after calming down to then immediately remember Aldra's deal and the kitten while Celes didn't seem to mind.
"Right! I highly suggest Aldra hold onto that kitten. Not sure if Celes mentioned it but Snow Elves are thieving pig elves! And I'm not talking about those pink elves, those are Cherry Blossom Elves whose tree of life is some cherry blossom tree!"
"Aldra being a pure-blooded Elf Royal is the greatest deterrent from those snow pig elves? I still won't forgive those pesky snow pig elves for trying to force some of my lesser assets into becoming indentured servants! Not to mention them being bandits and attempting to rob my bank.."
"Of course, they were 'dealt' with and the cuties became my playthings but I still won't forgive them! Their progress was stolen from my assets! I'd rather have a Void Elf and Dark Elf meet than hang around with snow-pigged elves! Rig-Right sorry Aldra? Now.. let's go!"
Aurora playfully remembered surprising the young prince even more by the fact that The Snow Elves were such bullies to even Aurora!
Did no one like them?! Causing Aldra after noticing this to then gently sigh before then reassuringly whispering into his ear causing him to then happily nod.
Soon enough all three were led by Aurora to her Golden Bank where her favorite auction house was located!
The reason it was inside of the bank was due to both the exclusive nature and because it was where most of the VIPs hung out. More like a club really? It had entertainment, bars, buffets, and so forth.
Not to mention it was almost half as extravagant as The Celestial Palace. To put it simply aside from being the main branch of The Continent of The Gods it served as quite a few other things.
Especially due to its history?
To put it simply The Bank and The Temple of Aurora along with several of her palaces, auction houses, clubs, brothels, and any other real assets really were already there for centuries before The Celestials came around?
The same could be said on the other continents!
However, for The Continent of The Gods she quite literally monopolized the land, mines, base humans, and everything else really.
Resulting in her gifting The Celestials The Land, selling the mines, ports, farms, and the already built agriculture, and fortresses, and keeping the land where her assets were placed?
Resulting in The Celestials getting a head start and even hiring her Golden Bank of Aurora which offered fleets of commercial and warships, High-Level Veteran Armies who could fight on land, air, and the sea.
No matter the conditions or the location, and everything else to jumpstart a civilization!
And she didn't only offer this to The Celestials but The Empire of Vulpes, The Elven Races, and everyone else of note?
Before there were greater races and gods there was an Aurora who had a thousand years before most of them came down from their heavens!
Of course aside from naturally born Godlings, Demigods, and other beings who were 'naturally' born of Divinis.
And 'also' had a head start outside of The Heavens, she was even The Empress of Divinus for some years just because she wanted the bragging rights before throwing it away and getting as many benefits as possible!
Meaning no real taxes, ancient treaties, immunities, favors, and many other things made her to this day a mythical figure and god despite only being a godling at the time?
Heck! She once got bored and asked in a favor from one of her Leviathan Clients to build hundreds of cities, ports, fortresses, and capitals with a single flavor!
That was simply how far and outrageous her history truly was! If Celes hadn't snatched her and given her protection someone else would have.
Resulting in Celes helplessly explaining this to the young prince while on the way to then pout her heart out having regretted not investing as much as Aurora had as they entered Aurora's extravagant Golden Bank.
Causing Aurora to then proudly smile while the young prince looked on in amazement.
While it seemed The Sacred Powerhouses she called Guards wore elegant Black and Golden robes covered in bronze, silver, gold, platinum, and ethereal golden patterns.
While the armor and fully enclosed helmets, mage spears, themselves were Ornate Ethereal Golden.
With platinum rank, temple, branch, and bank insignias giving them an ancient yet mythical charm while allowing some of their breath to allow a reasonable amount to leak through.
Which would no doubt reveal they were in fact Sacred Powerhouses as perhaps a form of intimidation and safety while they respectfully bowed.
In truth, they were comparable to The Celestial Praetorian Guard and they were only guarding Aurora's Bank!
Causing Aurora having cleared the young prince's seven sacred Assassins beforehand to then proudly smile after stopping to allow her holy prince to take in the sight.
"As my Holy Prince, you should know that you're not only The Holy Prince of My Temple rather you're The Holy Prince to my banks, and everything else I own?"
"These guards might wear different robes, insignias, and so forth but if needed, if you ever find yourself alone without your mommy or your protectors you need only come to any of my banks, temples, shrines, auction houses and ask for help?"
"And if you're ever scared and lost they'll protect you, fill your belly, entertain you, and take you to your room while they wait to get word from me, Selphie, Celes, or your mommy and daddy?"
