They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 379: Smiling Tiger

The livestream exploded with comments:

@GoldenScepterFan: “That scepter handle is stunning! So royal!”

KingSeunghoRules: “Classic move from Seungho, always knows how to impress.”

@CrownWatcher: “Look at that smug grin, he knows he nailed it.”

@HistoryBuff99: “Gold inlaid? That's not just a gift, that’s a statement. The King’s future in law ain't joking!”

A tall, silver haired servant stepped forward, bowing deeply as he accepted the gift from King Seungho’s hands.

He carried it carefully to a velvet lined display near the throne, placing it down with reverence.

Somto gave a slow, approving nod, his eyes sharp but unreadable.

Next to approach were the kings of several of the second-tier kingdoms, Vesdara, Kelmira, and Farlune, who had

united in their gift. They carried an ornate scroll, its surface decorated with intricate symbolic artwork:

intertwining vines, olive branches, and the combined seals of the three realms.

The spokesperson, a poised woman, the queen of Vesdara, with a calm but confident tone, stepped forward.

“King Somto, this scroll embodies our shared commitment to peace and unity under your wise reign. It is a treaty

of submission and alliance, forged in trust and hope for a prosperous future for all our lands.”

The room fell into a respectful hush as murmurs spread.

“An impressive gesture,” whispered one noble. “Unity from three kingdoms... that’s no small feat.”

“Submission sealed with art,” another said, eyes glittering. “It shows respect and political savvy.”

The livestream chat flared with excitement

@PeaceKeeper2025: “Whoa, three kingdoms signing together to submit to Lionara? That's huge!”

@ScrollFanatic: “Love the artwork! So symbolic and elegant.”

@DiplomaticDiva: “This just raised the stakes. Respect to Somto for uniting them without even doing anything.”

@KingWatcher: “That delegation looks so happy to be submitting to Lionara, they know the power move they

just made, coming under the shield of Lionara.”

The tall servant moved forward with grace, bowing deeply before accepting the scroll. He carefully rolled it up

and placed it in a finely carved wooden case beside the throne.

Somto’s eyes briefly flickered to the scroll before he gave a slow, approving nod, silent but clear.

Next, the king of Roxurun, king Altan approached, his men carrying a beautifully carved chest polished to a deep

mahogany shine. The chest was said to contain rare spices unique to their land, fragrant treasures.

He smiled as he approached, and spoke with a measured, confident voice. “Your Majesty, from the sun kissed

fields of Roxurun, we present these rare spices..”

A ripple of murmurs ran through the crowd.

One noble whispered, “Spices from Roxurun? That's a valuable gift, luxury and power in a box.”

Another chuckled softly, “I bet those spices can’t be found in the market yet.”

Across the livestream chat, excitement bubbled

@SpiceLord99: “Rare spices? Roxurun knows how to impress!”

@TradeMaster: “That chest means serious wealth potential for Roxurun. Lionara can buy these from them if they

are really as good as they say. Clever move.”

@RoyalGossip: “Look at that smug grin on the king Altan! | don’t blhim. Enhancing the trades with Lionara

with these spices is a powerful political and economical move.”

@FoodieFanatic: “I want to know what's inside. Imagine the feasts!”

The tall servant returned, bowing low before accepting the chest. He carefully set it beside the other gifts,

handled with respect and precision.

Somto glanced at the chest briefly, then gave a calm nod of approval, his acceptance clear.

Next, the King Haran, king Vladimir stepped forward, his presence commanding and dignified.

Behind him, a select group of elite guards and seasoned servants, symbols of loyalty and unparalleled skill,

stood in perfect formation, their polished armor and crisp uniforms gleaming under the hall's lights.

One would think he wanted to attack King Somto, but no one panicked. He wouldn't even have the chance.

King Haran spoke with a proud smile, his voice rich and steady like he wasn’t still fuming about what happened

months ago. “Your Majesty, from Haran, we offer these trusted protectors and servants, our finest, pledged to

serve and safeguard your reign. May their strength and dedication fortify your kingdom as you lead it into a new

era.”

A hushed gasp swept through the guests.

One noble murmured, “To gift elite guards? What's he doing sending spies into Lionara to get revenge on King

Somto for refusing the engagements with his children?”

Another whispered, “They're sending more than gifts, they're sending a statement. Is this a plow to make Somto

regret his decision or what? He couldn’t be so nice after that embarrassment right?”

Livestream chat lit up with excitement and intrigue

GuardWatch: “Whoa, elite guards? That's next level gift giving and dangerous if those guards and servants aren't

loyal to King Somto!”

KnightRider: “Haran warriors are formidable. We might as well accept them and make them loyal to Lionara.”

CourtWhisperer: “King Haran's looking so smug, he knows he just upped the game. Will Somto rekindle the

engagements after seeing Haran’s prowess?”

RoyalFanatic: “I'm loving this coronation . Guards for gifts? Epic!”

A tall servant stepped forward with grace, bowing deeply as he received the guards and servants, leading them

respectfully aside to stand ready under the king’s command.

Somto gave a slow, approving nod, his eyes briefly meeting King Haran’s before turning away, maintaining his

calm composure. Whatever King Vladimir is planning is useless. | might as well get new staff Somto concluded.

Duke Tinrin stepped forward with measured confidence, his gaze sweeping the room as he held an ornately

decorated scroll case in his hands. The intricate gold filigree shimmered under the chandelier’s glow.

“My King Somto,” Duke Tinrin began, voice rich and clear, “I present to you the deed to one of my grand estates

in the northern valleys. May this land be a stronghold for your reign, a symbol of loyalty and the foundation for

future prosperity.”

His smile was calm but carried a hint of pride, a subtle reminder of the weight behind his gift.

Murmurs floated through the guests

“An estate? That's a serious gesture...”
