After getting rid of the Shadow Lord, bringing back the slaves and fixing Deltora's food urgency, responsibilities flowed into Lief's life like water, Lief chuckled thinking of how he was a blacksmiths son and then a traveler and then a King!

It was amusing actually and then Sharn barged in with a grin on her face.

"What has made you so joyful, Mother?" Lief questioned.

"Surely, Barda has told you about the CC?" Sharn asked.

"The Conjoined Countries?".

"Yes, well they have invited Deltora!".

"Don't they just talk about statistics and boast about their riches there?" Lief

"Well, anyway you get to take another person as a guest! And we all know who that will be!" Sharn smirked.

"Fine, I'll go and how did you know I was going to take Jasmine!".

"Mother knows everything!" Sharn sang and then left saying to pack his bags because they are heading to Avelair tomorrow. Lief did as she asked and then headed out to Jasmine's room to tell her the terrible news.

"Jasmine" Lief began

"Hmm?" Jasmine nodded, acknowledging his presence

"Well, Deltora has been invited to the CC".

"And you are going?".

"Yes.." Lief said sadly

"BAHAHAHA, L LOSER" Jasmine laughed, while she threw what she was reading on the floor.

"And you're coming".

"FUC-".

"We better start packing" Lief laughed

"Unfortunately" Jasmine said, and they both started packing Jasmine's things and then went to sleep dreading the next day.
