Hail the King

Atmosphere – Tense, heavy, and scary.

Fei was standing alone at the corner, and he was just smiling while observing the surroundings. He didn’t want to talk first.

“Hehehehe, since none of you want to speak first, I will take the lead.” As the person who set up the operation and talked to all parties, Paris laughed as she walked up and broke the silence. She was the one who was qualified to speak up.

With everyone’s attention on her, the girl walked up to Fei and said with a smile: “Alexander, let me introduce everyone to you. Hehehe, this generous and powerful priest is Balesi from Holy Church on the Holy Mountain. He is following Mr. Kaka, [God’s Favorite Child], on the trip, and they are temporarily resting at St. Petersburg……”

Fei nodded peacefully, but he was secretly in shock.

He faked the identity of [God’s Favorite Child] when he used Paladin Mode in the past, and he didn’t expect there was a real [God’s Favorite Child] in the empire. As the [God’s Favorite Child] of the Holy Church, this Kaka’s status was prestige, and he shouldn’t be after the money of Blood-Edge. After recalling that the church people were really friendly towards him during his duel with the Seventh Executive Knight, Fei suddenly got a little uncomfortable, and his guards went up a little bit.

After hearing Paris’ introduction, Priest Balesi who looked calm and peaceful nodded. He was really neutral.

“This is Mr. Cande, the number one warriors of the [Bronze Spear] Guards of the Fellon Family……” Paris pointed at the warrior who was wearing the bronze armor as she introduced him to Fei as well.

This Fellon Family was one of the superpowers behind Blood-Edge Mercenary Group, and Blood-Edge didn’t expect this family to give up on them. Fellon Family probably only did so after the situation became irreversible. Although from the information that Paris got, the Fellon Family didn’t support the slave trade of Blood-Edge, Fei didn’t have any good impression of this family.

It was obvious that the number one warrior of [Bronze Spear] Guard – Cande, who was behind the crystal mask, didn’t have a good impression of Fei as well. This man only sneered after Paris’ introduction.

However, Fei didn’t care. He only nodded at Paris to show his acknowledgment.

“These people, Captain Romain and Ms. Ziene, I believe you have met before. This is the fourth prince Chrystal, and the lady beside His Highness is the successor of Beag Family, Ms. Beyonce. I believe you also met her after your duel with the Seventh Executive Knight……” Paris’ attitude towards Fei was really intimate; it made everyone feel like she and Fei were a couple in love. She stood close to Fei and lightly whispered into Fei’s ears as she introduced everyone – “These misters are all leaders of other big mercenary groups at St. Petersburg. This mister is the guardian of the Soros’ Merchant Group’s branch at St. Petersburg, Elder Ladino.”

Until now, fourth prince Chrystal who had an ugly expression finally knew who this young man was. The young man who dared to make fun of him was the King of Chambord who suddenly got famous recently. After thinking about what this man did, Chrystal felt like he was being treated fairly. After all, the man in front of him dared to offend the Imperial Knight Palace.

However, the fourth princes’ competitiveness grew even wilder after knowing Fei’s identity.

Both of them were the geniuses of the young generation, but Chrystal was a royalty of the empire who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. He had only been hearing flattering words when he was growing up, and he became very arrogant; he wasn’t going to let a little king of an affiliated kingdom stand on top of him.

For a moment, vicious lights flashed through Chrystal’s eyes.

“According to the plan we have in place, Chambord is able to get 30% of the total rewards after wiping out Blood-Edge Mercenary Group. The elder prince and the second prince would each get 15%. Preist Balesi would get 10%, Fellon Family would get 10%, fourth prince and Beag Family would get 10%, and the last 10% would be divided by the rest of the mercenary groups and Soros’ Merchant Group. We shall now proceed with the current distribution plan, does anyone have any questions?”

Paris lightly stated as she glanced around with a nine-pedal rose in her hands; she was wearing her white dress as always.

“I don’t have any questions.” Captain Romain said first; he was always smiling with his baby face. He looked at Fei and greeted: “Long time no see your majesty. I need to congratulate you since you became famous at the capital and Chambord is able to take revenge tonight.”

Beside him, the purple-dressed girl Ziene who always had a cold expression on her face showed a rare smile. The smile appeared on her face as if an iceberg melted and showed the flowers in the ice. As everyone was mesmerized by it, and she nodded at Fei to greet him.

Fei smiled back politely and said: “Thank you.”

“God said…… greed is one of the original sins…… I have no issues with it.” Balesi from the Holy Church was still looking down at the ground as he said in a low voice.

“Huh!” Cande sneered. He was really not happy about this. Blood-Edge was originally one of the forces under Fellon Family’s control. It was now wiped out by others, and he had to share the treasures with others as well. Although Cande got furious as he looked at Fei, this agreement was made with leaders of a lot of forces ahead of time, and he didn’t dare to push back on it directly.

“Our Soros’ Merchant Group also agree with the previous agreement.” Guardian Ladino of the group was an elder who was thin, and he looked like he was above all the worries of mankind. He nodded at Fei as he said that, and he appeared very friendly.

The representative of Elder Prince – Capitan Romain, the priest Balesi of Holy Church, Guardian Ladino of Soros’ Merchant Group, and the representative of the second prince – Paris were all on Fei’s side. These four forces wanted Blood-Edge to be wiped out, and Fellon Family couldn’t really do anything about it.

But at this moment –

“Wait, I have something to say.” Fourth prince Chrystal suddenly spoke up.

Fei slightly frowned.

As if she expected this from Chrystal, Paris’ facial expression didn’t change at all. She lightly pulled a bloody pedal off of the rose and lightly dropped it onto the ground. She then laughed: “Oh? Do your highness….. What do you want to say?”

Her tone was light, and her actions looked casual; it felt like she wasn’t viewing the fourth prince of the empire as someone important.

In fact, except the second prince, she rarely cared for other people. Her beautiful figure made a lot of people at St. Petersburg fall for her; they want to make this haughty woman their own. However, a lot of people at St. Petersburg also hated her for her vicious strategies and plans. No one dared to make a move on her from both sides. Behind her, there was [Red Beard] Granello, and there was also the madman like Dominguez; the second prince never thought of consequences of his actions, and he was loved by Emperor Yassin.

After seeing Paris pulling off a pedal, some people’s face changed color.

The fourth prince Chrystal’s expression also froze a little. He knew what this meant as he suddenly recalled a terrifying rumor. However, he straightened his back after some hesitation and said: “When we came in, the King of Chambord was already here. It is obvious that he got here a lot earlier than us, and none of us can be sure if he had taken some treasures already.”

“Your highness……” A mid-aged man who was short and had a black bandana on his head spoke out; his eyes lit up as he heard that.

He was Burno, the leader of the biggest mercenary group at St. Petersburg. He was an influential figure.

With someone supporting him, Chrystal got more confident. With a proud expression, he continued: “For example, if there are more precious items here before, and they are all taken by someone ahead of time…… then the leftovers are just some less valuable stuff. Haha, to my knowledge, the King of Chambord has storage rings.”

As he said that, he intentionally peaked at the mysterious black ring Fei was wearing on the right hand.

“This that true? Did the King of Chambord arrive a lot earlier than us?” Finally finding the opportunity, Cande of [Bronze Spear] Guards got excited. A light flashed through his crystal mask as he asked a few soldiers who charged into the hall first. After questioning, he arrived at the same conclusion as Chrystal.

After that, Chrystal got even more arrogant. He sneered at Fei: “Hehehe. That is only the first thing. Second, we had agreed to divide up the properties and treasures of Blood-Edge. We can now see that the King of Chambord burned most of the structures of Blood-Edge. This loss should be deduced from Chambord’s 30% share.”

Your Highness is right.”

“Eh, that makes sense.”

“This fire destroyed most of Blood-Edge. All that is out there are just ruins.”

A lot of people in the crowd agreed with Chrystal, and those people from the mercenary groups and the big family chatted among themselves.
