The consecration ceremony had serenely passed by even after the few awkward instances between the emperor and his soon-to-be male empress consort.

In this realm, same-sex marriage is acceptable and already a common tradition, especially amongst the cultivators. However, the Emperor and the Headmaster's case is a bit different. Two male alphas marrying each other is almost non-existent. Usually, male alphas and their families prefer a female alpha or a high-standard beta as a partner due to a problem in dominance. Although female alphas are still dominant in nature, when it comes to sexual intercourse and familial role, their female side goes first. Perhaps, due to their natural 'maternal' instinct.

This is different from male alphas. Due to excessive Yang Qi within their body alongside with their natural male pheromones, it is almost impossible to pin one down. Naturally speaking, mating and sexual intercourse is not a one-man activity. If both are male, needless to say, one will end up the top whilst the other is bottom. Only a few male alphas were born to inherently love being toppled by their partner, and this is already considered as an aberrant trait unless the said alpha had some sort of medical sickness.

(A/N: Cough, cough... Nolan.)

Now seeing the two male alphas energetically expressing their agreement with the marriage, the crowd can't help but ask internally the most complicated question in their life. Did our mighty emperor manage to conquer his partner's chrysanthemum or was it the other way around? But of course, they did dare not ask it. Some quick-witted alphas already figured it out by seeing the bandage around the Headmaster's neck whilst the other who isn't used to this kind of scene remained in the dark.

Just like that, the day flew past in a blink of an eye.

Terra, being the recent one of the appointed Imperial General, she had to attend to her first Military Assembly and had no choice but to leave the Yulrir and Theo couple alone for the day.

Similarly, the Headmaster had to excuse himself for that day for a couple of 'important marriage stuff'. The headmaster initially wanted to make use of the time to catch up with his not-so-cute disciple and his oh-so-cute martial nephew but the emperor had started acting like a depressed puppy so he had no choice but to give up the idea.

Yulrir and Theo made use of the free time to roam around the bustling city of Serkoff. The materials and loots that they had managed to collect from the ancient realm were already arranged by the couple. Some of the usable beast parts like fur, talons, claws, skins, and horns were sold at a fine price. Not to mention, some of the beast cores were also sold 20 to 50 golds each, transforming the two into a rich couple.

In reality, they did not sell all of the loots as Theo suggested that he'll make use of it to refine pills. This suggestion actually made Yulrir look at Theo with surprise. Theo had never told him before that he can refine pills. He bashfully said that the Good old Lord Huma from the Ancient Realm had passed him a secret manual on how to refine one. Yulrir never doubted Theo on this, not only that he trusted this man but he also knew the infinite opportunities that one can get from the ancient realm. It wasn't unusual at all as he similarly gained a present from Lord Huma himself.

Without any suspicion, Theo had managed to gain the approval of his wife to practice the art of Pill Making. Lord Regalia, back then was not only a formidable Spatial Magician but also a great Pill Maker. Along with the awakening of his incarnation's memories, Theo would naturally want to take advantage of his past life's expertise and apply it in his current life. He is actually thankful that even after his reincarnation, he still has an affinity on the fire element. Unbeknownst to him, Small Seed was giving his Daddy Theo a thumbs up for being able to fool his Father Yulrir for once. In a few more years, when Yulrir gains back his past self's memories, he(Theo) better be ready as a long nag will welcome him... But let's leave that story for a different time.
