Reborn in Another World as a Duke

Lin Xingchen’s soul transmigrates to a magical world where he inherits the title of a duke. Utilizing his unique "golden finger" ability and leveraging his noble status, he sparks an indu...

Chapter 193 Founding of a Nation

There are always issues between life and death that need to be faced, and people are constantly falling into the arms of the enemy, which is very uncomfortable for the two brothers Cameron and Edward.

In contrast to Edward's endless cursing, Cameron was honest and knew that the messengers had already set off, and all that was left was to wait calmly.

It is no longer something he can choose whether the other party will maintain his dignity for the sake of Queen Lydia, or will completely disregard past friendship and kill him directly.

During the waiting period, Cameron dressed himself elegantly every day. He was ready for either choice. Now he didn't want to regret and curse like his brother did, but planned to leave in a decent manner, whether leaving Kulma or leaving this world.

The messenger went there in a horse-drawn carriage, and came back in a magic butterfly carriage.

Seeing the magic butterfly car, Cameron felt a little more eager, and he felt that the ending he had expected was not that bad.

Xuya slowly walked out of the magic butterfly car, accompanied by ten high elf guards.

As the only male descendant of the Star Clan at present, he has a heavy task to shoulder.

Lin Xingchen's three daughters can be crazy and make trouble, but he can't. He is the eldest son of Lin Xingchen and Evelin, and the first heir to Maple Leaf Territory in the future.

This matter had been decided long ago, and it was the result of unanimous agreement among all the nobles and those in power in Maple Leaf Territory.

Lin Xingchen is away from home for most of the year because of his practice. Although his prestige is unshakable, a lord who can be seen and talked to from time to time can also be the future ruler.

Such an identity makes everyone feel safe, as Commander Albert's army continues to take over the cities that originally belonged to Kurma.

More and more people are paying attention to Xiuya, because the three ladies of Maple Leaf Territory have already announced that the day the war ends will be the day when Maple Leaf Territory begins preparing to establish a nation.

Moreover, the first emperor was not Lin Xingchen but Xiuya, and this choice also made most people feel relieved.

As Lin Xingchen's cultivation level became higher and higher and the time he spent practicing became longer and longer, everyone's respect for him became greater and greater.

On the contrary, the amiable and youthful Xiuya is more popular. As the Charles family has already reserved the status of third-class duke, they are the most staunch supporters.

Xiuya helped old Charles get out of the Magic Butterfly car. In this negotiation, Xiuya was just a spectator. The real person in charge was the fat old man who seemed like he might die at any time.

Everyone walked into the makeshift negotiation tent, and Charles took the first step.

"Charles greets His Majesty Cameron and His Royal Highness Edward!" The old man bowed with difficulty.

"I didn't expect the Duke of Star to send you out. Aren't they worried that you'd die on the way?" Cameron looked a little unhappy.

"hehe······!"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Fatty, I can't bear to die now, because I have waited for this day for more than forty years!" Charles said with a smile.

"Yeah?"

"According to you, Maple Leaf Territory had the idea of ​​replacing it forty years ago?"

"Your Majesty guessed wrong. It was not forty years ago when Queen Lydia and the Duke contacted each other. They already had this strength. It's just that at that time, neither the old Duke Green nor the current Duke cared much about power."

"If you weren't so anxious, Fatty, I might never have seen such an opportunity in my life."

"It's really hard for the Duke of Star. He has to endure for so long!" Cameron said sarcastically.

"Your Majesty, you guessed wrong again. The Duke is so absorbed in cultivation that he has not asked about the affairs of the territory for a long, long time."

"To be honest, it was our unwillingness that led to what happened today." Charles's relaxed face trembled with laughter.

"Speak!"

"What choice did they give me?" Cameron didn't want to argue any further.

"Your Majesty likes to guess! Why not guess again?"

"Forget it. I can't guess for sure. My aunt told me that I should be more sincere and less hypocritical towards Maple Leaf Territory."

"It wasn't until today that I finally understood how ridiculous I was before yesterday. I was so ridiculous that I thought I could conquer the entire empire by myself."

"Queen Lydia is a wise woman worthy of respect. All her decisions seem to be the reasons for her success even now. But it is a pity that you did not listen to the essence of her words!" Charles said sincerely.

"Let's get back to the point. Originally, we servants wanted to wipe out all traces of you."

"However, the three ladies discussed it in the end and finally gave Your Majesty the right to make your own choice."

"There are three conditions. First, you step down as a loser and are exiled. We will provide you with enough money to live on."

"Second, you will pass on the power of the empire to Young Master Xiuya through succession. In return, you will be given a piece of land as a duke as the last dignity of the Stephens family."

"Third, if Your Majesty does not accept the above two conditions, I think you can imagine the final result!" Charles stated the three conditions one by one without haste.

"You're passing the throne to him because you want it to be legitimate in name, right? Why not pass it to your master?" Cameron said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Master, he doesn't need it. For him, strength is his favorite thing. Do you know why Maple Leaf Territory has always rejected religion, but suddenly started to promote the Lord of Death?"

"Could it be that the Duke of Stars has become a god?" Cameron's face changed drastically.

"Your Majesty, you are wrong again. It was the Duke's father, Lord Kahn, who became a god!"

"The Duke's ambition is to become a being beyond the gods. If you choose the second option, perhaps you can lead the Stephens family to rise again!" Charles said with a smile.

"What other options do I have?"

"Your Majesty, the more choices you have, the more you will be lost. On the contrary, the simpler the choices, the more you will understand his preciousness."

"The reason why there is a second option is because the three ladies are thinking of our old friendship. In fact, according to the opinions of us servants, you only have one way to choose."

"Thank you so much, ladies. In that case, let's choose the second option!" Cameron said this with all his strength and then slumped down in his chair.

"It was a wise choice. Although you lost the throne, you saved the Stephens family. I hope you can take good care of yourself in the next period of time."

"If there is anything that requires your cooperation, we will inform you in advance. With that, we will take our leave!"
