Chapter 568: Change (Part One)
"Don't worry, Mr. Babel. Hehe, she only knows a few magic spells; how dare she try to fool us? Let me defeat her!" the bald guard said arrogantly.
Usually, he was feared in the town. Therefore, he completely forgot about his real capabilities. He thought that he could deal with more than a dozen farmers at once, so he must be able to fight with this female mage.
"As long as I'm careful and not hit by that little fire, I should be fine. Hehe, isn't it known that mages couldn't fight in a close range? I will only need to get close to her," he thought.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
As he quickened his steps, this guard started to move around and change his positions like an agile bear while moving toward Louise.
After all, he had obtained warrior energy. Although he wasn't an official One-Star Warrior, he could execute these moves easily.
On the other hand, it seemed like that girl couldn't react in time; she didn't even chant her spell.
Just as hope restored in Babel and Kelly's minds, a sneer sounded. One of the young men who were standing beside Louise moved. He instantly dashed forward and kicked out with a light blue energy around his feet.
Before the bald guard could dodge, he was kicked in the chin.
A blue-whitish energy instantly spread to his body from his chin. In just a few seconds, a dense layer of frost enveloped his body, and he was completely frozen by the ice-elemental warrior energy; only his eyes could barely move around, emitting a terrified light.
"You aren't even a One-Star Warrior! How dare you speak to the No.1 Witch, Eh, I mean No.1 Goddess of our Civil and Military University like that? To be honest, I'm quite envious of your bravery! Bald guy!" this young man landed on the ground and patted his hands; his tone was filled with mockery.
"Haha, Pato, don't praise me like that; I'm shy. King Alexander His Majesty had said that tiny ants dared to climb over a holy dragon not because they are dumb; it is because that they are ignorant. Therefore, I will forgive this ignorant bear." Louise referred to herself as a holy dragon without even being shy as a teasing smile appeared on her face. Her smooth hand played with one strand of her red hair, and she lightly walked to the bald guard who was frozen.
As this guard got terrified, she pointed out her middle finger and lightly pressed on this man's chest as if she was an adult who was disciplining a misbehaving child.
Bam!
The bald guard fell back to the ground like a piece of wood.
Trump's IQ is Finally Revealed - Try Not to Gasp!
Nueey
All the farmers in the pub gasped.
This girl and her peers' strengths were beyond the imagination of these farmers! They didn't expect that the strongest person in the town, who was this bald guard, got easily defeated! He didn't even get to touch the clothes of his opponents!
"How could they be so powerful when they are so young?"
At this moment, most of the people in the pub believed that these three kids were envoys from Chambord.
Only the envoys from Chambord could be this mighty.
"Huh? That Mr. Babel, weren't you quite imposing a moment ago? What? You want to escape now?" Louise turned her head and looked at Babel and Kelly who were trying to escape when people weren't paying attention to them.
"Eh... I, this... you..." Babel froze after his intention was discovered. He turned around and tried to smile, but that smile was uglier than a crying face. He lost all of his pride, and he stuttered, "Ms. Envoy….. This must... must be... a misunderstand. I was fooled by someone..."
"Haha, you can tell that to Uncle Oleg when you are at the Justice Department of Chambord... Oh, just a friendly reminder, Uncle Oleg is known to be the man who could even make a stone cry out in pain. He is coming back to Chambord with King Alexander His Majesty. If you are lucky, you will get to be interrogated by him personally!"

Chapter 568: Change (Part Two)
She Was the Most Beautiful Girl in the World. What She Looks Like Now is Insane
Nueey
Louise's prankster-smile and tone along with what she said almost caused Babel and Kelly to faint.
"No, oh, no! Ms. Envoy, please listen to us! We were fooled by... by a fake envoy!" Kelly rolled her eyes and tried to prove their innocence.
"Shut up! You are a vicious woman!" Louise, who was smiling, suddenly changed her expression, and she looked cold as ice. She scolded, "Do you think the envoys from Chambord are idiots? We showed up late because we were investigating into some serious matters. Humph! We have collected evidence against you two! We have information on all the crimes you committed and this conspiracy you two had with four other people, trying to stir up the farmers to cause a riot! Brand, arrest them!"
Her sharp words instantly destroyed Babel and his wife.
Then, the young man who didn't move before dashed forward and took out a pair of delicate handcuffs, locking these two people together.
On the other hand, the young man who used ice-elemental warrior energy untied Monet from the wooden beam in the center of the pub. Then, he used his warrior energy and healed the injuries this young man had suffered.
"Ok, the criminals who tried to defame King Alexander His Majesty have been arrested. Now, as the envoy from Chambord, I will announce His Majesty's orders. Starting this spring, all farmlands are free to rent. Tomorrow, we will distribute the free seeds in front of this Mr. Babel's mansion..." Louise jumped onto a table playfully and told the farmers about the real situation.
Cheers instantly sounded within the pub.
"Hail the king!"
"Long live King Alexander!��
"May gods bless His Majesty!"
"The generous and just King Alexander, we praise you and will pray for you!"
All the cussing and swearing turned into cheering and praising, and Fei turned from a 'tyrant' into a 'great and noble lord'.
Louise and her two peers were taken by this scene, and these three, who looked like young adults but were really kids, finally showed the childish-side of their personalities. They laughed and jumped; excitement and admiration would appear on their faces every time they chanted 'Hail the king'.
The farmers slowly left the pub and went back home.
On the way, they were still chanting 'Hail the king'.
Soon, not a lot of people were still inside the pub.
Except for the female owner and Waitress Jenny who were always in the pub, there were Babel, his wife Kelly, their guards, Louise, Pato, Brand, Monet, and Fei's group of five people.
"Huh? Friends, you all seen unfamiliar. Do you live in this town?" Louise turned around and asked with a serious expression on her face.
Out of the five people who were sitting by the window, she could only see the faces of two people; they were a brown short-haired young man and a white short-haired young man.
Didn't matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see the faces of the other three; she would barely make out the outer edges of their faces.
She couldn't detect the power of this group of people.
She shouldn't try to talk to masters like them. However, since a lot of strange masters came into Chambord's new territories and tried to cause trouble, Louise wanted to see if this group of people were friendly or not. She planned ahead of time, and she already figured out that these five people came this afternoon by asking townsfolk.
"Why, little girl? Are you trying to figure out our identities?"
This voice brought along an indescribable pressure, bringing fear to Louise, Pato, and Brand's minds. They felt like they had been seen through, and their bodies shivered. They instantly unleashed all their energies, preparing for the unknown.
Chapter 569: Test (Part One)
"Such power!"
Louise, Pato, and Brand all got concerned.
"This mysterious person only said one sentence, and we already sensed so much pressure. His strength is far beyond the instructors and teachers at Chambord's Civil and Military University," they thought.
"Why is there such a powerful master in this little town?" the three of them were shocked.
They received the best and most scientific training, and they were much better than that bald guard who didn't know anything.
Louise still had a bright smile on her beautiful face, but she made a hand gesture behind her back. Pato and Brand instantly understood their leader's intent and quietly adjusted their positions. The three of them were able to coordinate very well, and they were all calculating the best possible escape path that they could take if the situation got too dangerous.
They knew how to do this since it was one of the mandatory courses in Chambord's Civil and Military University.
"I'm an envoy from Chambord. Therefore, after encountering strangers, it is my duty to ask for more information..." Louise raised her head and replied sincerely after she felt ready.
Before she could finish, an insane amount of pressure crushed down toward her. It felt like a gigantic mountain was falling from the sky.
"You..." Louise and the two boys were shocked; they didn't expect this mysterious man to attack them instantly.
Also, as this mysterious person attacked, he blocked off all the exits in the pub. It felt like this man saw through their thoughts and instantly obliterated their plans.
Now, these three kids had to use all that they got.
As Louise quickly backed off, she reached out her hand and took out a scroll from her storage ring; it was the [Scroll of the King's Order].
The scroll rolled open in the wind. As Louise started to chant a spell, a mystic sensation appeared in the pub.
At the same time, both Pato and Brand charged forward.
Emma Watson Won't Apologize For Her New Car
Nueey
They drew their swords, dashed forward on both sides of Louise, and came back together, shoulder to shoulder. As their wood-elemental and ice-elemental warrior energies combined, the warrior energy flames brightened as the two elements complimented each other. Together, they tried to stop or at least slow down the pressure that was coming at them.
"Green-Wood Sword Strike!!!!!!"
"White-Snow Floating Chop!!!!!!"
As they shouted, they used their most powerful techniques.
These two combat techniques were created by the most powerful person in Chambord, King Alexander, and they were designed specifically for the students in the Civil and Military University. Although they were basic and had strange names, after the students learned the fundamentals from the mysterious instructors, these simple techniques were extremely effective; the practitioners could deal 200% the damage!
Bam! Bam!
However, before they could fully use the techniques, that pressure got to them. Like two pieces of paper in front of wild wind, they were blown into the air! They couldn't even stop that pressure for one second!
"Appear! King Alexander's Protection!!!!"
Fortunately, Louise broke the record for the amount of time it took to activate the scroll; she instantly completed the spell. As she shouted, dashes of flames shot out of the [Scroll of the King's Order]. The two-headed dog jumped out of the scroll, roared, and turned into a black energy shield.
At the same time, Louise didn't hesitate and cast several spells on herself, such as floating spell, light-body spell, agility spell, and strength spell...
Emma Watson Won't Apologize For Her New Car
Nueey
Then, she turned into a dash of red lightning, grabbed Pato and Brand who were knocked away and almost fainted, and tried to escape.
Her timing, movements, choice of escape path were clear and top-rated.
Bam!
The huge black shield only lasted three seconds.
Crack!
This crackling noise wasn't loud, but it shocked these three kids.
They knew that the [Scrolls of the King's Order] were magic scrolls created by King Alexander His Majesty; they could be used as identification token as well as powerful weapons since several defensive and offensive magic spells were stored in them. This spell called King Alexander's Protection would create a powerful energy shield, and it was capable of blocking the full-on strikes of a low-tier New Moon Elite!
"It isn't able to block this person? Is he a master beyond the realm of low-tier New Moon?"
With Pato and Brand in her hands, Louise sprinted forward without daring enough to look back. She instantly broke open the gate and dashed out of the pub; each of her steps covered a distance of at least four meters.
"Huh. We finally made it out! We need to report back to the Chambord City! Such a powerful master appeared in the territory..."

Chapter 569: Test (Part Two)
Louise took a deep breath and was about to charge forward again, but she shivered again; a shocked expression appeared on her face!
That mysterious man already appeared in front of them and blocked their way, and she didn't even detect it until now!
"Too powerful! We couldn't do anything to him!" Louise thought.
She felt very powerless, but she reacted fast. She swung her arms and threw the two boys to the left and right side of her. With a valiant expression on her face, she shouted, "Go! Don't worry about me! You must deliver the news! Tell Mr. Bast and Mr. Brook to be prepared! There is a powerful master who is hostile toward our kingdom!"
At this moment, Louise was ready to risk her life and buy time for her peers. She had to make sure that her peers could get the message out.
It didn't matter what this mysterious person's background was; Chambord had to be prepared.
"If this master really tries to attack the Chambord Castle, it would be devastating for the kingdom!" Louise thought.
As this girl was about to activate the second spell that was stored in the scroll, she was stunned again. As if a bolt of lightning was traveling through her body, her body shivered as she rubbed her eyes, trying to make sure that she didn't see illusions.
"What? Girl, you said that you are going to be my lover. Why? You don't recognize me anymore?"
Fei turned around, revealed his identity, and smiled.
"Ah! You are... Alexander? It... it is really you? King Alexander His Majesty?" Suddenly seeing the legend in Chambord and the idol of every student in the university, Louise who was a fast thinker blushed and couldn't get a full sentence out.
Pato, who was rushing back and trying to save Louise, was stunned when he got close; an overly-excited expression appeared on his face.
Brand, who bent his back and was on the run, heard Louise's gasp and froze. After he made sure that the situation was safe, he rushed back with a similar overly-excited expression.
However, after a little while, he suddenly thought of something and single-kneeled. With his head lowered and face blushed, he stuttered, "Your Majesty, I... I'm not afraid of death and wasn't trying to save my own life. I..."
When Louise threw the two boys away a second ago, they made different decisions.
Pato couldn't ditch his peer and rushed back to fight alongside Louise, but Brand didn't hesitate and decided to dash into the bushes and escape. Now, he was really nervous; he was afraid that the supreme ruler of the kingdom, his idol, would misunderstand his decision...
Fei laughed and waved his hand, and a gentle energy helped Brand off the ground. "When faced with danger, choosing to escape doesn't mean that you are a coward. Rather, it requires more bravery. Your decision might be misunderstood by others, but it is more valuable than dying alongside your peers... Haha, don't look at me like that. These are all a part of the curriculum in the university, right? I wrote all the textbooks. Eh, Brand, I know that you tried to escape because you want to get this message passed to people like Bast, just like what Louise asked you to do."
Tears appeared in Brand's eyes.
He and Pato had different personalities. Pato was more emotional and short-tempered, but he was more cool-headed and logical. That was why they made different decisions just now.
"King Alexander His Majesty is indeed kind and wise. Also, his strength is also beyond our imaginations! Haha, we got to battle with His Majesty a little! We can show off to our classmates, and they will be so jealous!" Pato and Brand thought excitedly.
"Hehe, Alexander is just as smart and powerful as before... Eh, most importantly, he is even more handsome than before!" Louise thought to herself like Fei's little fangirl.
"Hahaha, great! Your performances sure surprised me! It looks like the Civil and Military University sure created a bunch of talents for the kingdom!" Fei was happy with what he saw. Although these three kids were different, they were talented in their own ways.
At this time, Angela and the others walked out of the pub with smiles on their faces.
"Angela! Torres!" Louise's eyes lit up as she jumped into Angela's arms. She and Angela had a great relationship; Angela always cared for this girl who lost her mother at a young age and had a father who was a little careless.
Pato and Brand could only stand on the side nervously and watch enviously.
However, they soon got excited since they saw another idol of theirs! Torres, one of the few legendary warriors of Chambord! He started as a weak young man, but he became the most trusted guard of King Alexander, and he got into the top-20 in the competition at St. Petersburg, making a name for himself.
[Son of Wind] Fernando Torres was one of the most popular names in Chambord's Civil and Military University.
Chapter 570: Murderous Intent
-On their way back to the military campsite-
The darkness had enveloped the land, and the mountains in the distance and the trees nearby all looked like black beasts.
There weren't many stars in the sky; most of them were blocked by the dark clouds in the sky, making the atmosphere a little gloomy.
Because of Louise who was a playful girl, the journey back to the campsite wasn't dull. She was funny, and the people in the group laughed regularly because of what she said.
On the way back, Louise told Angela about the changes that had occurred at Chambord, making everyone want to go back and see.
Chambord's troop hid away the flags and kept a low-profile. The camp was located beside a river that was five kilometers away from the Kelun Town.
After inspecting the town, Fei and the other four people headed back. Of course, Louise, Pato, and Brand all followed him.
As soon as they thought that they could meet the famous warriors of Chambord who made names for themselves in the competition between the affiliated kingdoms at St. Petersburg, Pato and Brand got really excited and nervous. People like [White-Haired Fast Sword] Pierce, [Black-Haired Vicious Fist] Drogba, [Desperation Creator] Oleg, and [Destructive Finger] Cech were all now extremely famous at Chambord, and students in the university all wanted to meet them. Therefore, Pato and Brand couldn't even focus on their steps.
Unlike [Fire Rose] Louise who was Pierce's daughter and met these top leaders of Chambord earlier on, Pato and Brand were from poor families. Their talents were revealed after the competition among the affiliated kingdoms, and they were enrolled in the Civil and Military University. Therefore, they had never met these famous warriors before, and that was why they were so excited.
Also, like all their peers, these two kids were super loyal and held great admirations for the king.
If Fei didn't go against a lot of people's objections and didn't use a lot of the kingdom's resources on creating this public school and funding the poor students, kids like Pato and Brand wouldn't get the opportunity to chase their dreams of becoming mages and warriors; the pressure from survival would crush them. They might not even be able to afford new clothes and good food.
It could be said that the king's decision on creating this university changed the fates of numerous poor children and their families.
They were able to chase their dreams and become powerful masters.
Just from this aspect alone, it was easy to imagine how much admiration and gratitude the kids in the university had toward Fei.
Torres could tell that these two kids were nervous, so he smiled and chatted with them, easing their minds.
Ten of the Weirdest Toilets Around the World You Would Love to Use
Nueey
[Son of Wind] Torres was a cool-headed god-tier archer who wouldn't even waver in front of powerful enemies. However, he was moved when he saw these two young boys.
Not long ago, his fate was just like these two kids'; he was from a poor family and had to worry about survival, and it was the king who changed his fate. Therefore, he felt very close to these two kids who were experiencing the same things.
Jessie and Alan who were from the Black-Cloth Shrine kept their silence.
What was happening touched their hearts.
When they saw these three talented kids and heard the changes that were happening in Chambord from this fun-loving girl named Louise, they were stunned, especially Jessie.
To be honest, he had a hard time believing it.
"How could a savage, battle-hungry, greedy, and aggressive person like the King of Chambord be able to accomplish so much unimaginable things? However, when these three kids glance at this king, that passion, confidence, and admiration... it feels similar to how believers of the Holy Church worship the Pope."
After seeing all this, Jessie's mind started to shake.
His intuition told him that this girl was probably honest.
"Looks like Mr. Batistuta is right, and Alan is right as well. My subjective judgment blinded me, and the rules of the church constrained my mind. I wasn't really observant, and I should take this opportunity to see how good of a king Alexander really is," Jessie murmured to himself.
Here's the Purpose of That Little Pocket in Women's Underwear
Nueey
Suddenly, Jessie stopped thinking about those matters and paused his steps; he sensed murderous spirits in the area.
Then, he realized that the King of Chambord, who was walking in the very front, stopped as well.
Fei and Jessie were the two most powerful people in the group. Therefore, they were also the ones who discovered the hidden danger first as well.
Then, Torres and Alan sensed that something was wrong and quickly protected Angela from the left and the right.
After seeing that, Louise, Pato, and Brand who were well-trained also understood what was going on. They quickly protected Angela from the back.
The five of them protected the future queen who was the weakest in the group.
"Who is it? Get out!... Divine Sight!!!" Jessie slowly walked out.
Since Fei was now the unofficial bishop of the Black-Cloth Shrine, his identity was really prestige. Therefore, he shouldn't do everything himself. Thus, as one of the two protectors from the shrine, Jessie had to stand out.
Dashes of silver energy flames appeared, and it looked like the divine gods were blessing Jessie. A powerful aura enveloped him, and he looked like a small sun in the night, lighting up everything in the area.
Louise and her two peers were stunned. Their eyes opened wide as they thought, "Holy power! This serious-looking young man is from the Holy Church?"
They had been wondering about Jessie's identity, but they didn't expect that he was a powerful master from the Holy Church.
As the silver light radiated, a special energy dispersed into the area. Like sound waves, Jessie easily detected where the people in black were hiding and lit their locations up.
"Huh? Someone from the Holy Church?"
A gasp sounded; it felt like a person was asking his peers.
Then, five people, who were all wearing big cloaks that hid their identities, appeared around the group, surrounding them from all directions. The person standing right in front of them was tall and powerful. Right beside him, there was another person who looked a little sick; his aura seemed powerful, but his energy wasn't stable.
The person who was tall and powerful was the one who gasped, and he looked like the leader of the group. His question was directed toward the other person who looked sick.
However, the latter shook his head, telling everyone that he didn't know why either.
"Who are you?" Jessie asked in a deep voice.
He could tell that these five people who suddenly appeared were all powerful Moon-Class Elites, and they were going to be hard to deal with since they held hostility toward this group from Chambord.
Therefore, Jessie took a step forward, and a pair of huge silver wings that had a wingspan of more than 20 meters opened on his back gracefully. He adjusted his state of mind and got ready for battle.
During this entire process, Fei didn't even move; it felt like he was just a bystander.
His eyes locked onto the person who looked sick and had unstable energy.
"[Wings of Bless]?" The person in the lead was even more surprised. "You are so young, yet you have cultivated so much holy energy; it is truly rare. Young man, we are looking for the King of Chambord and not you, and we don't want to fight with someone who is from the Holy Church. You may leave now!"
It seemed like this person was afraid of the Holy Church and didn't want to touch Jessie.
"Impossible!"
Jessie flew into the air and clenched his hands. As a pair of silver light swords appeared in his hands, his silver energy wings fluttered and thrust him forward.
As a series of afterimages appeared in the air, he already dashed toward this man and struck down with his swords.
This young priest wasn't kind and generous anymore in battle; he was cold and fierce.
Boom!
That person in the lead didn't move. He raised his hand, and a bright dash of light appeared. He used one of his bare hands to handle Jessie's energy swords, and loud booming noises sounded.
After about five seconds, Jessie's body flew backward.
He didn't hurt that person at all.
That man was even more powerful than Jessie who was a top-tier Half Moon Elite.
However, that wasn't the most shocking discovery.
What shocked Jessie the most was that from the short battle, he discovered where these people were really from.
Chapter 571
"You guys are from the Holy Church as well? Why are you trying to kill the King of Chambord?"
Jessie landed back on the ground and turned his body. The grasses under his feet and around him broke off and were shattered; this happened because Jessie transferred that man's energy in his body into the ground.
Although that man tried his best to hide his energy, Jessie was a devoted priest and instantly recognized the holy power; he was very sensitive to it.
"Hahaha, since you recognized this, then I can't let you go," that man laughed loudly and ripped the cloak off his body, revealing the bright silver armor underneath. It was an armor made by the Holy Church; a red cross could be clearly seen on it.
This Holy Knight looked like he was in his 40s, but his deep and sorrow eyes told everyone that he was way older than that. His body was big, and his face was in a square shape. He had a thick beard, and his facial features made him look like someone who was righteous. However, the viciousness that was in his eyes told Fei that this Holy Knight wasn't someone who was dependable.
"You are young and already have the strength of a top-tier Half Moon Elite. Also, you even mastered the tough technique, [Wings of Bless]. You are indeed a genius. However, you just had to throw yourself into this. I wanted to let you go, but it seems like that isn't going to happen," that man stared at Jessie and said sympathetically, "Young man, tell me which shrine you are from. After you die, I will send your ashes to your shrine. Then, your family could still be protected by the Holy Church!"
He sounded so sure that it felt like he was staring at a dead man.
"Black-Cloth Shrine, Jessie." The young priest unleashed all his holy power, and an area of several kilometers around him was lit up as if it was daytime. His silver wings fluttered in the sky, and he didn't show any signs of fear.
"Huh? What did you say? Black-Cloth Shrine?" that man laughed after a short moment of pause, "Black-Cloth Shrine finally got itself a talented genius? Haha, great! I was feeling bad for destroying a genius like you, but now I'm very comfortable. Haha, a shrine like Black-Cloth should have disappeared a long time ago! Haha, after I kill you, I will send you head to that old Batistuta... I want to see his desperate expression after seeing that the most talented young man in his shrine is dead!"
As this person laughed, dashes of silver white energy dispersed into the area as if something had pre-drew all these patterns.
Not only this powerful leader, but the three people who were standing to the left, right, and behind of the group ripped their cloaks and revealed their silver armors with red crosses on them. Then, dashes of energy dispersed into the area from under their feet
The white energies dashed across the grasses, looking like white poisonous snakes.
At the same time, they looked like the marks left on the ground by a huge invisible pen.
The scene was really strange.
"This is [Templar Battle Seal]!!! We need to leave here! Once the four groups of silver energies combine, they will form the [Templar Battle Seal], and we will be locked inside it forever!" Jessie screamed instantly; he knew how terrifying the [Templar Battle Seal] was going to be when four Moon-Class Elites cast it.
However, Fei didn't move; it felt like he was thinking about a tough question.
Take Cold Shower Every Day And This Will Happen To You
Nueey
Since Fei didn't move, people like Torres and Angela also didn't move.
Just in that split second, the four groups of silver energies shone even brighter, and a layer of silver holy sphere appeared. Like a half sphere, it covered an area of several square kilometers, and it was insanely firm and stable, giving off a shocking aura.
"Haha, too late! Once the [Templar Battle Seal] is placed, only Sun-Class Lords could get through," that Holy Knight laughed as he walked closer. A chilly light appeared in his eyes as he continued, "Could it be that the King of Chambord is the [God's Favorite Child] of this fallen shrine? Damn, he is good at hiding. Unfortunately, we discovered it beforehand! Before we kill him, we will kill you first, the young man from Black-Cloth Shrine!"
Whoosh!
Before he finished talking, he suddenly made his move. Like a laser beam, he suddenly got close to Jessie.
He was indeed powerful; his body created a series of air-piercing noises on its own when he used techniques.
Whoosh!
Jessie fluttered his wings and went up for the battle.
Their close-range combat took place 10 meters above the ground, and their bodies continued to move around rapidly as they attacked and defended.
The movements of their bodies were almost reaching the speed of light, and it was hard for the naked eyes to capture them, especially when the viewers were weak, such as Louise, Pato, and Brand.
Trump's IQ is Finally Revealed - Try Not to Gasp!
Nueey
They felt like there were a ton of afterimages in their visions and couldn't figure out what was real. They would sometimes scream after seeing that one party was shattered by another party before realizing that only afterimages were shattered.
The three kids had never seen any top-tier masters battle, so they were nervous seeing this fascinating battle up-close.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After a series of explosion sounded, there was a sudden groaning noise.
The two people who were fighting each other in a close range separated at this moment.
The silver holy power continued to disperse into the area.
Jessie's [Wings of Bless] were on the verge of collapse, there was a streak of blood sliding down his lips, and his black robe was torn apart, revealing the white leather armor underneath.
There was a deep palm mark on the chest of that armor.
Jessie lost!
As a top-tier Half Moon Elite, he only lasted about one minute before losing the fight.
From the look of it, this Holy Knight was at least a top-tier Full Moon Elite, if not only a step away from the realm of peak Full Moon Elite.
"Little guy, your performance is over. Die!"
After one successful strike, a murderous spirit appeared in that Holy Knight's eyes. He dashed down like a hawk, and his strike was aimed at Jessie's forehead.
The severely injured young priest couldn't fight against it.
The Grim Reaper was sneering!
At this moment, Fei, who had been quietly thinking about something, made his move as if he thought everything through.
A silver fist mark dashed across the sky.
Boom!!!!!!
The fist mark collided with that Holy Knight, stopping him from killing Jessie.
Then, Alan quickly ran over to help Jessie to stand up.
That Holy Knight was knocked back and landed 20 meters away from them.
He looked at Fei and laughed, "King of Chambord! Your strength has increased! Even though your strength is higher than the level documented in the report, you are still no match for me!"
However, who knew that Fei completely ignored this powerful master. Instead, Fei's eyes went past this man and landed on that figure who looked sick and had unstable energy.
"I think I know who you are. Damn... it is unexpected. Why? You still want to hide your identity?" Fei asked.
Hua!
After a short moment of silence, the only person who didn't take off his disguise finally ripped his cloak off and revealed his identity.
His hair was white and loose, his robe was old but patched up neatly, and he was wearing a pair of shoes made from cloth and straws.
The familiar face looked even older as if time passed by him a lot faster. In half a year, it felt like he aged more than a dozen years; a ton more wrinkles could be seen on his face.
His eyes that should be filled with wisdom was now filled with viciousness, and his left chest was concaved in horrifyingly as if someone punched into his heart.
A person who should be dead appeared in front of Fei.
Priest Balesi, the Moon-Class Elite who got his left chest penetrated by the spells of Fei's necromancer character, didn't die!
"Hehe, King of Chambord, aren't you surprised? You used your evil spells and penetrated my left chest; are you wondering why I'm still alive?" Balesi walked to the Holy Knight and said to Fei with hatred in his eyes, "This is unexpected, right?"
Fei laughed; his laughter people feel like beating him up.
"What are you talking about? What? Are you hallucinating or something?" Fei replied.
"Why would I admit that I was the Undead Mage who ambushed you?" Fei thought to himself. Even though he was shocked and wondered why Balesi didn't die, he wouldn't admit that he knew what had happened.
"You..." Balesi almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
He thought that if he showed himself, the King of Chambord would be shocked, lose his mind, and reveal his association with that assassination.
However, the king laughed calmly and firmly rejected what he said.
Balesi felt like his forceful punch landed on thin-air, and that feeling was terrible.
"Damn! What happened? Only about six months went by, and you, Priest Balesi, now look this terrible. It feels like you have aged for 40 years, and you are even balding. Huh? Why do I sense a surge of undead energy on you? Ah! Could it be that you ditched the love of the gods and turned to the evil undead magic?!" Fei said as a shocked expression appeared on his face.
He was indeed vicious to his enemies. Although he was the person who turned Balesi into this, he acted as if he knew nothing and mocked Balesi even more.
"You..." Balesi growled, "Alexander, don't try to hide! Humph! You can't fool me! I know that the person who ambushed us was you! You are a born evil genius, and you dared to sneak-attack [God's Favorite Child] Mr. Kaka. You should be burned alive on a cross! Hehe, today is your death day! Doesn't matter what you say, you are dead!" Balesi was so mad that he looked like a devil.
Ever since he was severely injured, this priest, who used to look kind and gentle on the surface, changed. Perhaps it was because that the death energy inside his body tortured him, he got short-tempered, no longer calculative, and looked vicious. It felt like he had gone mad.
Fei carefully observed Balesi in detail and realized that a master, who had a ton of holy power, probably helped this priest to heal. However, the purest form of undead energy, death energy, couldn't be expelled by ordinary holy power. Only the Pope of the Holy Church could do that. However, why would the lord of the Holy Church waste his time and energy on a little priest who was barely on the realm of Moon-Class?
Therefore, Balesi turned into this; he looked like a half ghost.
He had to endure the pain caused by the collision of death energy and holy power in his body every second.
After hearing Balesi's words, Fei laughed joyously.
"What are you saying? I don't understand. I'm a [God's Favorite Child] and obtained golden holy power. How can I be an evil undead mage? Priest Balesi, are you trying to defame me and challenge the honor of the gods?" Fei tried to provoke his opponent as much as he could so that he could figure out how much Balesi knew.
"Whatever, Balesi. More talking isn't necessary. King of Chambord, don't fight back anymore. Even if you are a [God's Favorite Child], you will be killed!" that powerful holy knight saw through Fei's tricks and interrupted as a cold smile appeared on his face.
"Hehehehehe. Also, we could capture this girl named Angela. I already said that she has the purest soul. Hehehehehe. Once we capture her, we can use a secret technique to wipe her memories. Then, she would be the best medium for us to communicate with the gods! Hahaha!" a wicked smile appeared on Balesi's face as he laughed; he was truly demon-like.
"The longer it goes, the more potential troubles. Let's move and kill him!"

"Hahaha! Even a Sun-Class Lord would have a hard time trying to break away from the [Templar Battle Seal]! Haha, King of Chambord, you are only a small character. If you kill yourself now, you don't need to suffer the pain!"
"Hehe, Taylor, why are you talking to this little king so much? Let's kill everyone except that woman!"
"Humph! He is just a little king who got lucky! How dare he resist the order of the Holy Church?"
On the other three sides, the three powerful holy knights unleashed their silver holy power. The dashes of energy flowed around the [Templar Battle Seal], blocking off the contact with the outside world. Also, under its effect, the holy knights looked even more powerful and more dominating.
"Being able to die under the [Templar Battle Seal] cast by four masters from the Shiye Shrine, you should be honored!"
"Hehe, if we aren't afraid of you escaping, we won't put so much effort into this..."
"Kid, I can kill you with only one finger!"
These three holy knights approached Fei slowly yet steadily, and they had arrogant expressions on their faces. They continued to say things and tried to provoke Fei; they enjoyed the feeling of overpowering their opponents with their words alone.
Fei sneered.
He ignored these holy knights and turned around to face the three students from Chambord's Civil and Military University.

"Do you also think that they are very annoying?" he asked with a smile.
Pato and Brand were stunned, and they nodded nervously.
"Then, are you guys scared?" Fei asked.
"No!" this time, all three of them replied firmly without hesitation.
Actually, they were a little scared. After all, the name, Holy Church, was pressing, and Jessie who was a powerful master in their eyes even got defeated easily.
Even though they heard that their king was mighty, the enemies had the numbers advantage.
"Could he stop all of them?" they thought.
As if he saw through their expressions and knew their worries, he patted their heads and said with a smile, "Look closely! Today, I will let you know how powerful your king really is! After today, you will all know that Chambord is invincible!"
Before Fei finished speaking, a layer of mystic flames appeared around him.
[Immortal King's Soul Cage – Sacred Armor] enveloped Fei's body, and all the metal components covered the vital spots, making him look like an iron battle beast.
A holy yet barbaric aura surrounded him.
"[Immortal King's Stone Crusher]! Show yourself!"
Fei didn't wait for these holy knights to approach him. Instead, he dashed forward and took the initiative to attack. He targeted that burly and most powerful holy knight in front of him.
Right before he got to this opponent, he clenched his hands and leaped into the air. Then, a huge monstrous war hammer appeared in his hand.
"[Leap Attack]!!!!!!"
With his hands on the hammer, Fei smashed down with all his might.
"What?!... No!"
This holy knight, who had a mocking smile on his face, got shocked when he saw the hammer in Fei's hands.
He sensed an intense danger from this huge hammer, and all the hair on his body stood up.
When he thought of dodging, it was already too late.
As the hammer smashed down, he felt like the entire sky was falling onto him.
The energy of this attack enveloped him, and he couldn't do anything but to punch out to counter it!
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!!!!
Crack!
"Eh... Puff!!" this holy knight backed off instantly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. At the same time, all the bones in his arms got turned into small chunks.
The power of [Immortal King's Stone Crusher] was demonstrated thoroughly. Even though this holy knight was close to the realm of peak Full Moon, he was severely injured and might not be able to recover.
Fei had been killing monsters in Diablo World every day, and his strength was increasing rapidly.
People who saw this scene all froze.
Louise, Pato, and Brand were so excited that their bodies shivered; they felt like crying.
"This is our king! This is our idol! He is invincible!" they couldn't hold back their emotions, so they started shouting, "Hail the king!"
The other three holy knights were terrified.
Chapter 573: Power (Part One)
"He defeated a top-tier Full Moon Elite with only one hammer strike! How?" the other three holy knights s.h.i.+vered as soon as they thought about that.
They knew the holy knight, who got destroyed by the King of Chambord, too well.
They didn't expect that the No.1 Moon-Cla.s.s Elite in the most prominent shrine in the Northern Regional Church, the s.h.i.+ye Shrine, to be severely injured by someone who was a lot weaker than him! After all, this man was the Moon-Cla.s.s Elite who was the closest to the realm of Sun-Cla.s.s in the s.h.i.+ye Shrine.
"Quick! Use the power of the [Templar Battle Seal]! Use it to torture him!!"
As soon as his arms were destroyed, the pain instantly told this burly holy knight that he made a huge mistake in judgment. He used the last little bit of logic he had in his mind and made the best decision.
In this situation where the power dynamic between the two parties switched, the only chance they had was to use the [Templar Battle Seal] to fight the King of Chambord who was much more powerful than they expected. Otherwise, even though the other three holy knights were great masters, they weren't strong enough to handle the King of Chambord's hammer.
As soon as the burly holy knight said that, the other three holy knights already injected their holy power into the [Templar Battle Seal].
They had been fighting alongside each other for a long time, and they could coordinate with each other perfectly; it was almost an instinct of theirs.
Silver holy runes intertwined with each other and formed many vein-like branches. As if they had minds of their own, they wriggled on the gra.s.ses and coiled toward Fei.
Then, a series of holy and purifying chants resonated inside the battle seal; it sounded like G.o.ds were muttering and angels were singing.
There was a unique power inside this sound, affecting people's souls. Like a lullaby, it would lower the battle-hungriness, awareness, and resistance of their opponents, giving the holy knights the opportunity to do whatever they wanted to their enemies.
As if the chants were magical, they ignored other people and all went inside Fei's ears.
Soon, Fei stood still and closed his eyes; it looked like he was mesmerized by the 'music'.
Then, the huge war hammer in his hands was slowly lowered to the ground.
Dashes of silver flames climbed up Fei's body like greedy blood-sucking veins through his legs as well as the [Immortal King's Stone Crusher]. Each one of the flames was a holy rune chain. They all contained natural laws, locking Fei down completely. In the end, except for Fei's head, his entire body was tied up by them. He was wrapped by white flames, and he looked like the prey of a spider that was packed by white spider webs.

"Hahahaha! I will torture you myself!... Hahaha, King of Chambord, you are done! Ever since you were locked inside this [Templar Battle Seal], your death was unavoidable! Although your strength is far beyond our estimation, the result will be the same!" that burly holy knight shouted; his arms were now soft and dangling off his shoulders
Beside him, Balesi was trying to help him heal as he chanted a spell and released his holy power.
"His Majesty... he..." Louise, Pato, and Brand all got nervous for Fei again.
The changes in the battle happened too fast, and it made these three kids very anxious. They felt like their hearts were in their throats, ready to jump out of their mouths at any second. In addition, they were so nervous that they almost forgot to breathe.
The scale of victory was slowly tilting toward these holy knights and Balesi.
"Hehehehe... you are dead!" Balesi's vicious and ear-piercing laugh sounded as he stared at Fei with hatred.
"Capture him! I will cut off his arms slowly piece by piece! I will let him experience the feeling of wanting to die but can't die!!!"

With his arms destroyed, that burly holy knight was in a lot of pain, and his face twisted. His righteous facial features now looked vicious and wicked under the light of the silver holy power!
That unique, G.o.d-muttering-like chant became clearer and clearer. It could destroy anyone's resistance!
The terrifying holy runes started to work toward Fei's head...
The other holy knights finally calmed down, and they felt relieved. The anxious and nervous expressions on their faces turned vicious, and they already started to fantasize about what they could do to the King of Chambord once he was captured.
"d.a.m.n, this is disappointing! Is this the so-called [Templar Battle Seal]?" Fei suddenly opened his eyes and asked. His eyes were so clear that it didn't look like he was affected by that chanting at all.
"What?" the holy knights were shocked; they realized that stuff was about to go down.
"Eh, the so-called [Templar Battle Seal] is just average. I am disappointed by its power. How come you guys thought that it could constrain me?" as the king shouted, red dots started to appear on the silver holy runes that wrapped around his body as if they were being stained by something. Soon, all the silver holy runes were turned completely red!
"This is... murderous spirit! Such a terrifying amount of murderous spirit! Only the G.o.d of Killing who had killed millions of creatures could obtain such a terrifying murderous spirit!" That burly holy knight and Balesi were dumbfounded. "This... how is this possible? The King of Chambord is only a young man who is about 18 years old! How... how could he kill so many creatures and take so many lives?"
Boom!
The red flames around Fei's body turned into a light beam, and it shot into the sky and collided with the energy sphere created by the [Templar Battle Seal]. The huge energy waves even made the ground shake violently.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The holy runes that wrapped Fei up tightly broke and shattered like dried leaves after they changed color. Under the impact of the energy waves, they turned into dust before disappearing.
"You... you didn't dodge because you want to test the power of the [Templar Battle Seal]? You... this is crazy..." Balesi couldn't even place a full sentence together. Fei left a nightmare in his mind already, and he was now on the verge of mental collapse after the plan he was so sure of fell apart.
"It is too late now! You wasted too much time, and I should put an end to all of this!"
As Fei's cold and murderous voice sounded, the hammer in his hands moved. As if Fei mastered the shadow clone technique, people who were watching felt like Fei turned into three as three shadows rushed toward three different directions.
"No!!!"
"Save me!!!"
"You can't kill me! I'm from the Holy Church... AH!!!"
Three horrifying screams sounded from the left, right, and back. At the same time, those three shadows didn't hesitate or show mercy. Three hammers were waved, and three cracking noises sounded.
As if three eggs were smashed by rocks, these three holy knights who were all Half Moon Elites exploded, and three clouds of blood mist appeared alongside with chipped bones and torn flesh...
Then, those three shadows of the King of Chambord disappeared slowly.
Fei was still standing in his old spot, and it seemed like he didn't even move.
Shadow clone technique?
No!
It was just that Fei's speed was too fast, and he left a series of afterimages in the air. He attacked each of the holy knights individually, but his insane speed couldn't be caught by ordinary people. Therefore, it created an illusion, making people feel like he mastered the shadow clone technique.
The silver holy runes started to disappear, and the silver energy sphere that enveloped the area faded and collapsed.
After those three holy knights died, there wasn't enough holy power supporting this [Templar Battle Seal]. Therefore, one of the ten punishment battle arrays of the Holy Church got countered.
Chapter 574: Sweep (Part One)
"You... this... you..." this burly holy knight was stunned; he almost couldn't speak.
He couldn't understand the amount of murderous spirit that this young man released.
"He was suppressed by the power of the [Templar Battle Seal], but he suddenly broke loose. Even if he started killing people and beasts as soon as he was born, he couldn't have killed tens of millions of creatures in just 18 years. How could he have an amount of murderous spirit similar to the infamous killers on the continent?" he thought.
There was no way for him to know that Fei's murderous spirit came from Diablo World and not the Azeroth Continent.
Ever since the discovery of Diablo World, Fei had killed at least more than 100,000 monsters. However, these monsters weren't ordinary creatures but demons from h.e.l.l! They were powerful and murderous, literally the synonym for viciousness and cruelness.
On top of that, Fei had killed bosses in the Normal Mode such as Andariel, Duriel, Mephisto, and Baal. They were powerful demons and could be considered as deities and G.o.ds in h.e.l.l. By killing them, Fei was killing G.o.ds!
After killing so many powerful demons and even the deities in h.e.l.l, the amount of murderous spirit Fei acc.u.mulated could be even turned into tangible objects!
However, the murderous spirit was insanely powerful, able to harm the soul of anyone who was close to him. That was why Fei rarely used his murderous spirit in the real world. However, since he was sneak attacked by these masters of the s.h.i.+ye Shrine from the Northern Holy Church, he had to use it.
Fei knew his paladin character well. As a result, he understood holy power and figured out its kryptonite.
There were only two things that could counter the holy power that originated from the G.o.ds – death energy and murderous spirit.
At the moment, Jessie and Alan were present, so Fei didn't want to reveal to them that he obtained death energy. Therefore, he could only resort to his murderous spirit.
Although the murderous spirit wasn't as effective at destroying the holy power as the death energy, it was more than enough from this experiment.
After testing it out, Fei now had another way of dealing with the masters of the Holy Church on top of using his necromancer character. It was a lot safer for him.
On top of everything else, there was still that mysterious stone pillar inside his body. Therefore, Fei didn't even need to worry about Sun-Cla.s.s Lords, let alone these mid-tier Half Moon Elites and their [Templar Battle Seal].
For the last while, Fei had been thinking about improving the combat abilities of the warriors of Chambord, and he focused on battle arrays. If he could create a battle array that could be used by several Moon-Cla.s.s Elites, they might be able to defend against a Sun-Cla.s.s Lord. Then, even if Fei wasn't at Chambord, the top leaders at Chambord could deal with Sun-Cla.s.s Lords and protect the kingdom.
Here's Why You Should Never Squash a Centipede
Nueey
Therefore, after seeing the [Templar Battle Seal], Fei decided to place himself in danger and let [Templar Battle Seal], one of the ten punishment battle arrays of the Holy Church, touch him. He wanted to have a clearer understanding of how the energy operated inside this array, and he wondered if he could copy the key points and modify them into something that he could use.
Overall, what Fei got out of it was worth the risk.
"d.a.m.n! d.a.m.n it! Go! Let's go!!! Retreat!"
After the initial shock, that burly holy knight woke up and screamed. He turned around and dashed away as his body turned into a beam of light; he was going to disappear into afar soon.
Now, he understood that the King of Chambord was acting weak, but his actual strength was far beyond them. Just the power hidden in that huge war hammer was more than what he could deal with! If that hammer came down on him, he would be killed.
Balesi, on the other hand, lost his confidence and dashed away as well without making a sound.
How could Fei let them get away?

"Hahaha! You guys came with domination, but you are running away with tails between your legs? It is too late! Just stay!" Fei waved his hand, and a green scroll shot out, turning into a dash of silver light. It soon caught up with that burly holy knight who was retreating.
"What is this?... d.a.m.n it!" that holy knight shouted.
As soon as that beam of light caught up, it turned into a transparent bubble and locked him up; it looked just like one of those bubbles created by a playful child with dish soap but just more ma.s.sive and stronger.
The bubble looked weak since the layer was thinner than paper, but it blocked off everything. It didn't matter how much that burly holy knight tried to break free; he couldn't damage this bubble for one bit. In the end, the bubble slowly floated back and landed in front of Fei.
By now, Fei already flew out and returned.
In his hand, it was Priest Balesi who was pale and had a resentful expression.
All of the five masters of the s.h.i.+ye Shrine, the most prominent shrine in the Northern Regional Church, were either killed or captured. On Fei's side, except for Jessie who was injured, no one else was harmed.
Torres was already used to this.
Fei's most trusted guard had the confidence in the king, and he felt like there was nothing that the king couldn't conquer. After all, he had seen similar cases multiple times.
However, Louise, Pato, and Brand had never seen it before!
Before, they only heard about how powerful their king was from their instructors and other residents. However, even the best poems and descriptions couldn't give them a vivid impression. Now, they finally saw it happen with their own eyes!
The shock they experienced when witnessing their king's domination in battle made them admire Fei even more. They saw him as an idol before, but they felt like wors.h.i.+pping him now.
They were so impressed that their minds ignored the fact that Fei destroyed three Moon-Cla.s.s Elites of the Holy Church easily! This news would stun the entire Zenit Empire!
"It was too fast, and the video quality isn't high. However, it is still enough to show off to our cla.s.smates! Haha! I have recorded His Majesty's presence in battle, and it is one of a kind!" Louise, who was clever, already recorded what took place with a divy crystal.
The nightly wind blew by, and it was chilly.
The residual holy power dispersed into the area before turning into its elemental form and dissolving into the air.
"King of Chambord, you will regret this. Hehe, don't think that you will win again! You are already the target for the s.h.i.+ye Shrine and the Bishop of the Northern Reginal Church, Mr. Platini. You will be burned alive on a cross sooner or later! Your luck won't be this good all the time... Hehehe, I curse you, your loved ones, and the people you value. I hope the important people in your life all die in front of you. The kingdom that you try to protect dearly will also be turned into a forbidden land filled with skeletons..."
Balesi knew that his end was near, and he wasn't hoping that he could live.
Therefore, with his hoa.r.s.e and dry voice, he screamed and cursed. His words were vicious, and his tone was chilling, making people s.h.i.+ver in fear.
Before he could finish, his body got instantly enveloped by a cloud of blood mist. Blood flowed out of his eyes, mouth, nostrils, and ears, and the wicked smile on his face froze. Then, his head fell back; he was dead.
He chose to kill himself.
For the last while, the holy power and the death energy had been fighting in his body, torturing him on a daily basis. Now that Fei captured him, he had no hope in getting revenge. Therefore, this priest who was vicious to others and also vicious to himself decided to commit suicide.
Just the second before he lost his consciousness, he thought back to the night at Chambord's campsite near St. Petersburg half a year ago.
A strange thought appeared in his head, "If I can turn back time, I wouldn't have made the King of Chambord into my enemy because of that girl named Angela..."
Fei sneered and didn't say anything.
He squatted down and placed his palm on Balesi's corpse; he only calmed down after making sure that this priest was 100% dead this time.
At the same time, Fei made a discovery.
A strange expression appeared on his face as he murmured to himself in a low voice that only he could hear, "No wonder... I punctured through his left chest last time, and that damage to the heart would even kill a Sun-Cla.s.s Lord. He lived because his heart was grown on the right side of his chest. This rare condition saved him!"
Chapter 575: The Return of The Heroes (Part One)
This time, Balesi was completely dead.
The miracle couldn't occur again, and he couldn't survive this.
Fei checked Balesi's corpse carefully, and he found that all the critical magic energy channels and connections in his body shattered. Balesi's body condition was in bad shape to begin with since Fei's necromancer character's curses messed him up. If his holy power didn't reach Moon-Cla.s.s, he would have died a long time ago.
Therefore, committing suicide was a way for him to free himself from all the pain and suffering.
Fei thought about it and punched on the ground to create a huge pit. Then, he wiped out the marks he left on Balesi's corpse, and he threw the corpse into the pit. Then, he waved his hand and pushed the remains of the other three holy knights into the pit as well. He cleaned the battlefield well, and no traces could be found.
On the other hand, the burly holy knight who was imprisoned by the bubble-like energy sphere finally stopped struggling.
This sphere was thin, but it was extremely firm; it was an item created by Akara and Cain. They studied the semi-G.o.dly runes that were locking [Demon King's Wisdom] in the mysterious stone room, and they used the imprisonment effect of the runes in this scroll. Even a Sun-Cla.s.s Lord might not be able to destroy it, let alone this holy knight whose arms were broken.
"You better let me go. Otherwise, Chambord will be destroyed!" this burly holy knight said coldly in a threatening tone. He had calmed down already, and vicious and crazy lights were flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.
Fei sneered and slapped his face twice.
As broken teeth and ripped flesh flew out of his mouth, this burly holy knight's face swelled up like a half-rotten peach.
"You... How dare you shame me like this? Do you know who I am? In front of me, Chris, even..."
After being slapped, this burly holy knight named Chris lost his mind. This man who was known as the No.1 Moon-Cla.s.s Elite in the s.h.i.+ye Shrine lost his cool, and he shouted angrily like a hyena that got its partner taken away during mating.
Pia! Pia!
Fei responded with two more slaps.
Chris felt like his ears were buzzing loudly after that. He was in a lot of pain, and he was enraged. The fact that he couldn't do anything in respond drove him nuts, and he fainted as a result.
Trump's IQ is Finally Revealed - Try Not to Gasp!
Nueey
Fei was too lazy to talk to him. He reached into the energy sphere and grabbed onto Chris' shoulder.
A destructive energy rushed into Chris' body.
After a series of crackling noise, all of the energy channels and connections in his body were locked, and his holy power was gone.
Then, Fei turned around and looked at Louise, Pato, and Brand. At the moment, these three kids were looking at him as if he was a G.o.d. He said to Pato and Brand, "Help me carry this idiot back to the campsite. Give him to Oleg and ask Oleg to open this idiot's mouth and get all the relevant information."
As he said that, he put away [Immortal King's Stone Crusher].
Tonight, it was the first time that this war hammer showed itself in this world, and its power was unbelievable. Fei's real strength was somewhere around mid-tier Half Moon, and he was a distance away from Chris. However, with this war hammer in his hands, he could destroy this top-tier Full Moon Elite within ten strikes... That feeling was divine!
This hammer was going to drink a lot of blood of Fei's powerful enemies, and tonight was its first feast.
When Fei and the group returned to the campsite, it was already midnight.
The burly holy knight, Chris, was given to Oleg to handle.
Therefore, almost everyone in the campsite heard the desperate and beast-like screams sounding from Oleg's gloomy tent; those noises didn't sound like the noises made by humans, and all creatures stayed at least ten meters away from that tent.

Chapter 575: The Return of The Heroes (Part Two)
-The next day morning-
Red-eyed Oleg gave a detailed report to the king.
Fei read it carefully, thought for a while, and flicked his wrist, turning the report into a cloud of powder. The cloud of powder soon dispersed into the area after being blown by the spring wind.
The king nodded and said to this flatterer pleasantly, "Not bad!"
The courage, persistence, and loyalty this fatty showed when fighting with Tony and Snow Mountain Hermit left a deep impression on everyone's mind. Although he was still a big-time flatterer, Fei's opinion of him got even better.
"It is my honor to serve you." This flatterer was thrilled after getting the king's compliment.
"Eh... there are always people in the world who believe they are in control of everything. If you don't hit them and let them feel the pain, they could think that you are an easy target, and they would want to bully you... Balesi is such a snake. Although he is dead, he had already successfully ignited the greed in some people's minds, posing a great threat to Chambord... Hehe, the s.h.i.+ye Shrine? Bishop Platini? Great! Since you guys want to plot against me, then I guess it is meant to be. As the bishop of the Black-Cloth Shrine, I'm going to be lighting the first fire on you!" Fei thought as he slowly walked out of the central tent and looked up at the sun in the sky.
At the moment, the sun was slowly rising from the eastern sky.
Oleg followed the king. He was always interested in figuring out his lord, and he knew Fei's personality too well. Therefore, when he overheard the king's murmurs, he somehow felt like the warm spring breeze was a bit chilly, and he subconsciously thought of a terrifying scene where only mountains of corpses and burning flames could be seen.
"Let's move out! Increase the traveling speed, and let's try to get back to the Chambord Castle before tomorrow's sunset," Fei shouted.
During noon of the next day, the troop finally stepped into the old territory of Chambord.
Many warriors and soldiers howled and cried as soon as they stepped into their homeland.
Half a year wasn't that long, but a lot of events occurred. They followed their king to the Capital of Zenit for the compet.i.tion between affiliated kingdoms before going to the Jax Battle Zone; they went through battles and earned the honor.
A lot of them thought that they would never get to see their home again once they stepped onto the battlefield, but they were willing to fight for and serve their king.
Their king didn't fail them.
They left with 318 people, and they returned with 318 people. Not a single member of Chambord was killed in battle; it was a miracle.
By now, some soldiers already kneeled and kissed the green gra.s.sland, murmuring their family members' names; they had never been so homesick. They felt like they could see the Chambord Castle that was at the foot of the huge mountains.
"Look! The scouts from the kingdom!"
On a hill not too far away, they saw three cavaliers riding on three roaring flame beasts. The cavalier in the lead was holding a flag that had an image of a two-headed dog with an ax and a blade in each mouth, and it was fluttering in the wind.
It was clear that they were the scouts of Chambord.
The people in the Chambord City knew that the king and the troop were returning, and Bast and Brook sent out scouts to the path that they would be taking. A scout went back to report, and the other three proceeded forward to greet their king.
Whoos.h.!.+
A magic arrow was shot across the sky, leaving a temporary image of a two-headed dog in the air.
This was the newest way of communication between the armed forces of Chambord.
"Your Majesty!!!"
The three cavaliers quickened the roaring flame beasts, and they quickly approached Fei like three red clouds.
Then, they jumped off their mounts gracefully, single-kneeled, and saluted at Fei.
They finally met the great lord of the kingdom. As a result, these three scouts were extremely excited. Their voices were shaking, and they stared at Fei with admiration. Compared with Louise, Pato, and Brand, these scouts showed even more respect.
In Chambord, Fei was the G.o.d in the citizens' minds.
Chapter 576: The Return of The Heroes (2) (Part One)
When the troop got close to the city, it was already sunset. The sunlight dyed everything into gold.
Standing on [The Throne of Chaos] that was placed on Blacky's back, Fei looked at the newly renovated and upgraded Chambord Castle as the chilly night wind fluttered his hair.
The first thing that came into his field of vision was the wide river.
The Zuli River didn't change as it blocked off the outside world from the Chambord Castle, and water vapor could be seen above the surface of the 1,000 meters wide, fast-current river.
The stone bridge that had been there for thousands of years was now replaced.
It was the only way for the Chambordians to come and go from the city, but Fei broke it apart when the black-armored enemies tried to siege the city. After that war, an iron suspension bridge was put in place to connect the two sides of the broken stone bridge, and it was easy to use.
Now, this stone bridge was completely replaced.
Fei only broke about 20 meters of the bridge, and that gap was now extended to almost 1,000 meters. Only two small portions of the stone bridge were kept on the two banks of the river, symbolizing the once existed stone bridge.
A ma.s.sive wars.h.i.+p replaced the stone bridge.
This s.h.i.+p was about 100 meters long, 20 meters wide, and the portion of the s.h.i.+p that was out of the water was about ten meters tall. Like a building on the river, it floated on the fast-current river steadily.
This s.h.i.+p's style was completely different from the s.h.i.+ps that were seen on this continent. There were no sails on it, and there was no center wooden beam as well. All the fancy decorations and engravings were omitted.
Except for the ram of the s.h.i.+p which was shaped like a unicorn, nothing else on the s.h.i.+p was sharp or pointing outward. Its surface was very smooth, making it look like a whale that was resting on an ocean.
To outsiders, this s.h.i.+p looked weird and couldn't go far; it was more like the creation of an inexperienced s.h.i.+p maker.
However, Fei knew what this s.h.i.+p was capable of.
It was based on the blueprint of a demon s.h.i.+p from the Mythical Era where the G.o.ds and the demons were at war, and this blueprint was recorded in [Demon King's Wisdom].

This s.h.i.+p in the Zuli River was almost a complete replica of that ancient s.h.i.+p, and it had all the bells and whistles from the ancient magic technology. Instead of wind, it was powered by pure magic energy. It had insane combat ability and could submerge into the water and become a submarine.
In the Mythical Era, this type of s.h.i.+ps that were known as 'Reserve Whale Wars.h.i.+ps' dominated the waterways on the continent. Although these s.h.i.+ps weren't ranked in the top-ten wars.h.i.+ps during their times, they were still the main s.h.i.+ps that made up the mid-tier fleets of the demons' navy forces.
Fei didn't expect that Cain and Akara were able to create such a s.h.i.+p in just half a year.
With this s.h.i.+p guarding the Zuli River, that stone bridge was no longer necessary. This s.h.i.+p's transportation ability was enough to move people and things from Chambord to the outside world and vice versa.
The troop was getting closer and closer to the city.
Soon, the soldiers and warriors all saw the city's defense wall.
Under the suns.h.i.+ne, the bylaw enforcement officers and saint seiyas were shocked to find that the city had changed drastically, no longer fitting the images in their memories.
First of all, although the shape of the black defense wall didn't change, the surface was cleaned. After years of getting rained on and blown on, there were a ton of mosses and fungus growing on the defense wall. Now, the defense wall was in a s.h.i.+ny silver color, corresponding to the golden suns.h.i.+ne. It felt like someone plated a layer of silver on top, and it looked brand-new.
Then, the soldiers realized that the city gate was completely gone!
This city was now a city without an entrance.

"Huh? No gate? Does everyone need to go in and out of the city using ropes?" the soldiers and warriors were surprised, and they thought back to the scene where the king and 23 strongmen got off the defense wall using ropes before charging at the black-armored enemies.
The closer they got to the castle, the more changes they saw.
Suddenly, loud cheers and clapping sounded from the other side of the river; it was so loud that the noises made by the fast-current Zuli River couldn't even be heard.

Chapter 576: The Return of The Heroes (2) (Part Two)
Outside of the defense wall, there was a big crowd of excited people standing there and waiting. Despite their various backgrounds and social statuses, they were all citizens of Chambord, and they all came out of the city to welcome their king and their military's return voluntarily.
When Blacky's mountain-like body appeared on the horizon, the citizens of Chambord couldn't hold back their excitement, and they all started to cheer. Some of them soon lost their voices, but they didn't care; they continued to make noises.
Through the thin clouds of water vapor, a lot of women and elders who had tears in their eyes saw familiar faces and figures.
"Mommy, why are you crying?" a boy who was about three years old looked at his mother with his big eyes and asked, "Oh, I know! Daddy is coming home, right?"
"Yes, my child. Look! Your daddy is next to those uncles of yours! Remember! Your daddy is strong and is a hero! A hero of Chambord! He followed our great king, Alexander His Majesty, and he brought back great honor for our king, our kingdom, and our family..." the mother pointed at the troop that was on the other side of the river, kissed this boy's cheek, and said proudly; her face was full of tears.
"Oh, I will remember. Mommy, who is King Alexander? Is he also a great hero like Daddy?"
"Eh, my child. Remember, Alexander His Majesty is the greatest king in the world! He is a true lord! When you grow up, you need to grab a weapon and protect His Majesty and our home just like you daddy! It will be an honor for every child at Chambord!"
After stepped on this reserve whale wars.h.i.+p named [King Alexander], Fei was showered in the loud cheers coming from the other side.
Strategist Old Aryang dismissed the formation, and the soldiers and warriors could no longer suppress their excitement. They all rushed to the edges of the deck, waved their weapons at the crowd on the other side of the river, and tried to spot their family members and loved ones!
Even a real man would cry in this atmosphere.
When they left their homes, most of them were low farmers of a level 6 affiliated kingdom. They weren't experienced in battle, and they were looked down upon by others. At the time, they were hopeful toward the future of Chambord, and they were also a little fearful of the unknown. In the long nights, all of them had prayed again and again, hoping that the G.o.ds would favor Chambord. Even if they had to die, they wanted to die in front of Chambord so that they could kiss the land that raised them and see their loved ones one last time.
Now, they were warriors and heroes of a level 1 affiliated kingdom, and they had been through many battles. Wherever they went, they were greeted with cheers, applause, and flowers.
These righteous and brave men couldn't wait to share this honor with their families. After all, they were a part of Chambord's rise.
[King Alexander] was powered by magic energy, so its traveling speed wasn't slow. It went from one side of the river to the other side in less than five minutes.
When the s.h.i.+p reached the other side, several wide wooden boards were extended from the deck and connected with the river bank automatically, forming a pathway.
At this moment, the citizens of Chambord rushed by the bylaw enforcement officers who were trying to keep order, and the soldiers and warriors on the s.h.i.+p jumped over the railings. The two large crowds of people merged like a flood.
"Oh, dear! You came back! You are back alive! Thank G.o.d! I'm not dreaming, right?"
"My child, say daddy! He is your daddy! When he left, you couldn't even speak yet..."
"Waah... dad, you are finally back! I missed you..."
"Hahahah! Kid, you grew taller, stronger, and darker. How was it following Alexander His Majesty? You didn't bring shame to me, Old Nick, right? If I hear from your comrades that you had slacked off in battle, I will break your legs!"
"Sister, don't worry; this wound healed a long time ago. Hehehe, it is the proof of your brother's bravery and honor! Alexander His Majesty personally praised me! See this? This is the badge of bravery that His Majesty gave me! I'm one of the few who got it! Hehe, a lot of my comrades are jealous of me!"
Hugs, cheers, tears, kisses...
This area in front of the city turned into a boiling sea of people; the atmosphere was so bright that it felt like a volcano had erupted
Chapter 577: A Miracle City (Part One)
Fei stood on the deck of [King Alexander] and quickly got pushed aside by the emotional crowd. Under the protection of a few bylaw enforcement officers, he slowly walked to his future father-in-law, Bast, and the military leader, Brook, who were walking toward him as well.
"You arrived earlier than we expected..." Bast fixed his hair and clothes before smiling and patting Fei's shoulder. He was really pleased with this future son-in-law of his.
Although only half a year past by, Bast aged a lot. His hair turned whiter, and he got a lot thinner. Even though he seemed energetic, the fatigue couldn't be hidden.
Fei felt a little guilty.
While Fei led the troop of Chambord and battled enemies, all the administrative duties and tasks were handled by Bast and only a few other people. The Chambord Kingdom was in a little chaotic state to begin with, and there were a lot of things to fix. On top of that, there was the reconstruction and renovation project. There was a lot of work to be done, and people like Bast and Brook had been working tirelessly for the last while.
"Dad!"
A surprised shout sounded, and Angela dashed past Fei to hug her father. In her lifetime, she had never been away from her father for this long. Therefore, she missed him dearly.
"Brook, thanks for the hard work."
Fei said as he looked at Brook who had been following him for the longest time.
This man who was burly and muscular was now almost as thin as a spear, and he looked tired as well. The bags under his eyes were big, and it looked like he hadn't had a good night sleep in a while.
Since he spent a lot of time on managing the tasks in the kingdom, his cultivation strength didn't improve that much. Even though his body was reformed by the [Hulk Potion], and Fei recreated a cultivation technique for him, he hadn't reached the Five-Star level yet. Currently, he was a top-tier Four-Star Warrior.
Compared with his peers who started serving the king around the same time, he was one of the weakest.
Even Torres, who was a weak and powerless young man back then, was now a mid-tier Eight-Star Warrior who had an insane archery skill.
However, despite all that, Brook was one of the most non-replaceable subordinates that Fei had.
Fei felt guilty toward this man.

He knew that Brook's talent was better than people like Torres and Drogba. If he were given the same amount of resources and weren't distracted by the administrative tasks, he might have became a Moon-Cla.s.s Elite already.
"It is my honor to serve Your Majesty and the kingdom!" Brook was very excited to see the king again; his voice was even s.h.i.+vering a little. Currently, he was wearing the same armor that he wore when he fought the black-armored enemies alongside Fei; it was very symbolic.
As this man was about to single-kneel, Fei quickly walked up and stopped him.
The king didn't say anything; he only patted Brook's shoulder.
At this moment, the overly-excited citizens of Chambord finally noticed their king.
Tens of thousands of citizens kneeled and wors.h.i.+pped their great and unique lord!
"Hail the king!!"
"Long live Alexander His Majesty!!"
The chants and cheers of tens of thousands of people sounded louder than a tsunami, and Fei felt a unique sense of accomplishment when showering in it. He earned it all by himself! The journey from an idiot king who was hated by his citizens to a great ruler who was wors.h.i.+pped by his people wasn't easy, and Fei worked hard to obtain it.

Chapter 577: A Miracle City (Part Two)
Hazel Bank and Jessie, who represented darkness and brightness respectively, stood behind Fei quietly.
The Undead Mage had stabilized his Sun-Cla.s.s Realm, and he now had complete control of his aura. Even without the G.o.d-fooling badges, Jessie who was standing about a meter away couldn't detect Hazel Bank's real ident.i.ty. If this mage weren't in battle, others wouldn't be able to tell that he was an undead mage.
Although Jessie was severely injured in battle not long ago, one of the unique abilities of the holy power was to heal people. Jessie was an outstanding priest; as long as he wasn't dead, he could recover from any severe external injuries in a day or so.
Even though the Undead Mage had lived for hundreds of years and saw a lot of big events and the Priest experienced a variety of emotions during his ascetic lifestyle, they both felt strange hearing the loud cheers coming from tens of thousands of people.
These two people were all unique in their own ways, and they could see through people. They saw the crazy pa.s.sion and admiration in these people's eyes, and they could tell that it was a strong power. Once ignited, these citizens would be willing to do anything to help their king defeat their enemies.
The two masters of different backgrounds got the same first impression of Chambord.
This celebration ended after about 40 minutes had pa.s.sed.
According to the plan set by Bast and others, there was going to be a grand celebration in the evening, officially welcoming the king and the military's return.
When people got to the foot of the defense wall, a series of chanting and metal gear-gliding sounds appeared. Then, a portal-like light gate appeared in front of everyone. After it sounded like a metal fence was pulled up, the people started to walk into the light gate and were instantly teleported into the city.
The soldiers and warriors who just returned were all surprised and understood why there was no gate anymore; this teleportation mechanism took care of everything.
This mechanism was a simple short-distance teleportation array that was also recorded in [Demon King's Wisdom]. In the Mythical Era, this array was commonly used; even small villages used it. However, as that era came to an end, most of the magic technologies went extinct.
Akara and Cain consulted [Demon King's Wisdom] and recreated such a teleportation array, upgrading Chambord's defense.
Standing on [The Throne of Chaos] that was placed on Blacky's back, Fei and Angela traveled through the familiar yet strange streets.
The Chambord Castle was huge to begin with.
The Chambordians didn't create it; instead, it was an ancient city from previous eras that was discovered by the ancestors of the Chambordians. The design of the city was beyond Chambord's current knowledge and capabilities, and this half reconstruction and half renovation project made the city feel brand-new.
Fei could tell that the Chambord Castle underwent some significant changes.
Every 100 meters or so, there would be a secret location with a ton of magic energy surge, and the magic energy surge in the city was several times more powerful compared with before. Huge magic arrays protected every region of the city; there were a total of nine small altars and 36 magic towers that were more than ten meters tall. Magic engravings connected everything, offering Chambord its own unique magic defense system.
With this new defense system, if there were enough magic energy, the black-armored enemies wouldn't be able to get a speck of dust off the defense wall of Chambord in 50 years.
Except for the new magic defense system, there were other new structures in the city.
Every 1,000 meters or so, there would be a small barrack that was tightly guarded and well equipped with powerful weapons.
Around the barracks, there were gigantic military crossbows called [Dragon Slayers]. They were also from [Demon King's Wisdom], and they were created by the beautiful blacksmith from Diablo World, Charis, with the help from the blacksmiths in Chambord.
These [Dragon Slayers] only occupied a s.p.a.ce about ten square meters each, and they were mobile. They were magic weapons that were powered by the magic gems inlaid in the bodies of the crossbows, and about five to six ordinary soldiers could operate one with ease! The huge magic arrows it could shoot out were capable of instantly killing anyone who was below Five-Star in strength.
Fei also discovered that there were stealth monitoring stations on the sides of the mountains, capable of view the city and the plain outside of the city.
On the two sides of the streets, there were many beautiful stone statues. These statues existed before the renovation, but they were modified and now behaved like street lights. The silver light from the magic lanterns inside these statues dispelled the darkness like the moonlight.
These statues were everywhere around the city, illuminating the Chambord Castle.
When Fei looked around more, he even discovered things like manholes, public washrooms, and magic traffic control lights.
If it weren't for the exotic stone buildings and statues, Fei would think that he was back to his previous life where technologies were advanced.
After the renovation that was ordered by Fei, the Chambord Castle was now already a miracle city on this continent; nothing like it could be found.
Chapter 578: His Majesty's Morning Meeting (Part One)
It was the same executive hall in the King's Palace, but Fei wasn't familiar to the decors and the interior design.
Fei was a minimalist, and he preferred simple styles. Therefore, when he first came to the Azeroth Continent, he didn't like the overly fancy and bright design of his palace. Thus, since the city underwent renovation, he changed up his palace as well.
The good thing was that the project wasn't costly. All the gold and silver furniture and decorations were moved and sold off, and the palace was now a lot simpler. There were now a lot more plants inside the palace, making it look like a garden.
Fei was sitting on his old stone throne that was cl.u.s.tered by two lion-like demon beast statues, and Little Racc.o.o.n was standing on his shoulder intimately, looking at Fei's ministers curiously.
In front of the throne, there was a long rectangular stone pond that was about one meter wide. Some duckweeds were floating on the surface, and a few small fancy fishes were swimming in the pond.
"Your Majesty, the messenger of the Military Headquarter from St. Petersburg has been waiting for you for three to four days now. He asked you to go and see him, and he has a ton of ridiculous requests..." Brook said as he sat on a stone chair; he projected his voice so that everyone in the hall could hear him.
"Ridiculous requests? How ridiculous?" Fei smiled; he was very curious about it.
Fei returned to his palace half way through last night's celebration, and Torres later reported that the messenger of the Military Headquarter tried to find him last night at the party. After not being able to find Fei, this messenger lost his temper and destroyed the atmosphere of the entire celebration. Drogba and Pierce who were short-tempered as well almost tried to beat that arrogant messenger up.
The agents Chambord had in St. Petersburg already pa.s.sed the information about this messenger named Barkov to Fei through the Letter Office, so the king knew him well.
This person was a little n.o.bleman from a weak family, but he somehow jumped on Crown Prince Arshavin's bandwagon and started to get in power. In order to get recognized by Arshavin, Barkov did everything he could. He framed a lot of n.o.blemen and military commanders who were either on Second Prince Dominguez's side or held neutral stances, and you could say that his hands were covered in blood.
Since this man was sly and tactical, his political enemies couldn't find his weaknesses and evidence of his crime. Therefore, the crown prince liked him, and a lot of people didn't dare to mess with him even though they hated his guts. It was rumored that this man was the dagger in Arshavin's hand which couldn't be stained by blood.
Since the Military Headquarter ordered him to be the messenger and asked him to come to Chambord to get more information on the Jax Battle Zone, it was clear that the crown prince was behind all of this.
To be honest, Fei didn't know why this prince, who was known as polite and welcoming of talents, hated him so much. From the look of things, it felt like the crown prince wanted to get rid of him.
Therefore, Barkov was clearly up to no good.
"My lord, that messenger has been wandering around Chambord, and he visited a lot of influential people in the city. Almost all the officials in the six administrative departments of Chambord received gifts from him, despite the ranking of their positions; even Bast and I got gifts from him. From the way he talked, he isn't respectful toward Your Majesty, and he is trying to stir up..." Brook knew about everything that was going on in the city, so he reported in detail, "Also, this messenger is very interested in things like our teleportation array at the gate and our [Dragon Slayer] crossbows. He had asked us to provide the blueprints several times. Also, several officials in the bylaw enforcement ministry told me that he is also interested in the central water system, sewer system, traffic light system, etc. There had been some terrible incidents where workers and low-level mages were kidnapped and interrogated for the blueprints and core magic arrays!"

Perhaps because the king influenced him, Brook used a lot of technical terms in his report.
"Eh? From the sound of it, this Barkov has good eyes..." Fei thought about it and said, "Send someone to tell him that I'm busy and can't make time to see him. Also tell him that if he wants to see me, we can talk about it in half a month."
"As you wis.h.!.+"

Chapter 578: His Majesty's Morning Meeting (Part Two)
Fei glanced around and got a little emotional.
Except for a dozen well-respected elderlies who were elected by the people of Chambord to attend these meetings, make public announcements, and clarify the rumors and misunderstanding around the new laws, other people in the hall were all mid-level and high-level officials.
Since Fei raised his blade and wiped out all the corrupted n.o.bles in Chambord, most of these officials were young; the oldest one among them was younger than 40 years old, and the youngest one was about 19 years old. These people were all promoted based on talent and competency rather than backgrounds.
They would be the key to Chambord's future rise.
Trump's IQ is Finally Revealed - Try Not to Gasp!
Nueey
Although the king was powerful, he couldn't manage a kingdom using force alone. Therefore, since Fei was a king who was hands-off, these people in front of him were more irreplaceable.
"Half a year ago when I led our troop on the expedition, a lot of you were still regular citizens. Now, you are all key figures in the kingdom, and I recognize your faces and remember your names. I'm pleased with the work that you guys have done so far; it is clear that Mr. Bast and Mr. Brook couldn't have done everything at Chambord alone. Therefore, you guys are all heroes of Chambord as well!"
What Fei said moved these people.
This young king who had a legendary past was charismatic enough to engage people with a few words and make them admire him.
"Eh, since you are all here, I have an announcement to make; it is going to be a lot of work to get everyone here again. In half a month when full moon arrives, I will be marrying Mr. Bast's only daughter, Ms. Angela, and the archery professor at the Civil and Military University, Ms. Elena. I hope all of you could attend!" Fei said with a bright smile on his face.
Fei talked to Bast about this last night openly. To his surprise, this future father-in-law of his agreed to it readily; he wasn't mad at all. The fact that Bast accepted it so easily worried Fei a little.
After a while, Fei figured that since Bast was from a n.o.ble family and acted strictly according to the etiquettes of n.o.bles, he probably wasn't opposed to polygamous relations.h.i.+ps that were common to see in the n.o.ble's circle.
Applauses instantly sounded in the hall.
Based on tradition, the king already pa.s.sed the usual marrying age. In the Zenit Empire, a lot of princes were married at 12 years old.
This was a serious matter. The king already got canonized by the empire and was older than 18 years of age, but he still wasn't married. A lot of people in the kingdom and the empire had been talking about this.
Therefore, Fei's subordinates were happy for him when he made the announcement.
The two most beautiful girls at Chambord were finally claimed.
Of course, there were a few young men who were fond of the beautiful and powerful Valkyrie, and they were a little disappointed. However, on the second thought, only the king who was a talented genius was fit for marrying a girl like Elena. If anyone else said that he was going to marry Elena, the young men in the city would throw out white gloves according to tradition and challenge him.
The king's marriage ceremony was treated as a grand celebration.
The officials in the Finance Department and the Rites Department quickly walked up and said that they would take care of all the planning and logistics.
The atmosphere in the hall got warmer and warmer; this just went to show how popular and loved Fei was as a king.
After the official meeting, Fei asked Bast, Brook, and Jessie to stay behind. According to the tradition of the Holy Church, after Fei officially gets canonized and becomes the bishop of the Black-Cloth Shrine, the headquarter of the shrine was going to be placed in Chambord.
In the next while, Jessie would be walking around the city and trying to select the best location for the new church.
This was an important matter, so Fei reminded Bast and Brook to coordinate with Jessie well.
After that, Fei returned to the back hall to have lunch with his fiancées.
Then, he quickly went to the back mountain of Chambord; all the key secrets were hidden inside the underground cave.
The old city already changed so much, so Fei couldn't wait to see the underground cave that was the core of the project.
It was going to be an underground city filled with miracles.
