On the fifth day, Emperor Valentine toured Beatrix in the palace garden. When the sun is almost at its highest, he suddenly took Beatrix to the central part of the Solaris Imperial Palace. When they entered the large structure in the center of Solaris Imperial Palace, Beatrix discovered that the whole structure is a grand circular ballroom about three times larger than the grand banquet hall of Sky Empire.

She is immediately amazed by the interior design! The ceiling is truly a magnificent work of art and architecture. It is comprised of one supermassive dome-like roof, surrounded by alternating smaller dome-like rooves. The foundations are very huge and tall filled with uniform geometric patterns and designs with the symbol of Solaris imperial family. The circular wall has several circular windows allowing the sunlight or moonlight to provide mysterious illumination inside the tall and massive circular ballroom. Each circular window is surrounded by twelve sun rays as a replica of the symbol of Solaris imperial family. The wall seems domineering and imposing because of the built-in, life-like, and life-size sculpted images of seemingly guarding Solaris' imperial soldiers! The sculptures in the bottom are life-size soldiers holding swords and shields, next to them are sculptures of life-size soldiers holding long spears, followed by life-size sculpted cavalry soldiers, and finally the life-size sculpted images of archers. They are life-size and life-like images and since the wall is circular, depending on how a person sees things... It could give assurance of being protected from every corner or it could give a frightening illusion of being surrounded with no escape! Overall, it is truly an awesome and majestic art portraying the strength and power of Solaris Empire!

Emperor Valentine urged her to go to the center of the ballroom. When they reached the center, he proposed that they should dance.

"There is no music..." She reluctantly replied.

"We do not need one. It is more exciting this way..." He replied and smiled attractively.

Beatrix thought for a while then finally agreed so they dance like a happy couple in the middle of a big formal dance party! It did not matter that there are no other people, no music, no fancy decorations, and no sumptuous banquet... Their dance created a type of ethereal atmosphere and illusion that time stood still. It seems that their harmonious and fluid movements seem to balance and match each other perfectly!

He smiled contentedly while dancing with her because there is a legend that has been passed down from the first emperor up to the present generation... It is said that the location of Solaris Imperial Palace is formerly a mysterious, sacred, and magical place. For this reason, the Solaris Imperial Palace was built exactly here to attract good luck and heavenly blessings. The grand ballroom is the center of the Solaris Imperial Palace so it is said to be the most auspicious place especially the center of the grand ballroom!

According to the legend that was passed down from the first Emperor of Solaris Empire down to the next generations of Emperors, all the Emperors of Solaris Empire who danced here together with their beloved person in the center of the ballroom without music and no other people around when the sun is at its highest and brightest outside, they end up married to each other!

I do not know if the legend is true but my Imperial Father and Imperial Mother danced here! My Imperial Grandparents danced here and also my Great Grandparents too! All of them end up married to each other! They say that this is a mysterious, sacred, and magical place. Since there is no harm in trying so I will try everything... No matter how ridiculous it seems! But I truly hope that the legend is true! Because if it is true then Beatrix will become my Empress soon!!!

He happily thought as he swiftly and smoothly guide their dance in the center of the grand ballroom. After their dance in the grand ballroom, they ate their lunch together and decided to go out of the imperial palace.

Emperor Valentine dressed up like an ordinary wealthy young master while Beatrix dressed up like an ordinary wealthy young maiden. While walking, he immediately regretted his suggestion as he noticed the looks other people are giving to Beatrix! He could not help but secretly grit his teeth and clenched his fist!

Most men stared at Beatrix like a predator drooling over a rare and delicious meal! Other men secretly took a peek and shyly looked away blushing but will immediately and secretly look again! Others stopped what they are doing and watched every move she makes then smiled like a fool! The worst are those men who unconsciously licked their lips like a rabid dog that wants to pounce on their victim!
