Chapter Seventy: The Rise of a New God



Arthur was also shocked.

He couldn't believe that Albert would handle it this way.

Although, by the time the emperor arrived, no one dared to talk about it anymore.

But the emperor still found out.

In Perkins, it seemed that nothing could escape his 'eyes'.

"Albert".

From the high platform, the emperor's majestic voice resounded.

"Come with me." The emperor turned around. "And take your dragon with you."

The air seemed very tense.

Sophia was furious, and she was still gritting her teeth even after Albert was called away.

Fortunately, the knights who were loyal to Sophia were not present.

Otherwise... a fight could break out tonight.

Albert was becoming increasingly incomprehensible to Li Aili.

Not only Li Ai Li, but Arthur also felt that his brother was becoming more and more of a stranger.

“I’m sorry, Sophia. I…” Arthur didn’t know how to apologize to Sophia.

Sophia took a deep breath. "It's nothing."

"But has your brother Albert really not lost his mind lately?"

“I think he’s gone mad,” Sophia said.

Afterwards, the remaining four marquises arrived and inevitably became involved.

Sophia gave none of them a friendly look.

"Damn it..." Sophia covered her forehead.

"I just lost control of my synesthesia."

"Margaret (her dragon) is going crazy, searching the whole world for Gilman Norton."

Arthur: "..."

Sophia waved her hand. "I'll go stop her first."

"No matter what, my principle is to avoid harming the dragon."

Li Aili: "..."

After Sophia left, Arthur explained to her, "Female dragons usually grow faster when they are young..."

Li Aili: "What?"

“Our dragons were all beaten up by her dragons when they were little.”

“Even now, Margaret, Sophia’s bronze dragon, still beats up dragons quite often.”

Li Aili: "..."

"Your Highness Albert can't defeat the dragon?"

Arthur considered his words carefully, “Gilman Norton…is quite the gentleman.”

Li Aili: "..." I understand, we can't beat them.

The banquet proceeded as scheduled.

However, it is clear that the Emperor was very unhappy about the previous offense against Sophia.

After that, Albert returned, but the Emperor never appeared again.

This is a significant blow to the six families who have entered the social circle.

Of course, this can also be seen as the emperor giving a silent warning to the six families.

'Regardless of your current status, Princess Zhenguo is not to be offended.'

With this signal, the old nobles spoke freely about the "origins" of several families at the banquet.

Li Aili can hear a lot of gossip while she's getting a dessert.

For example, all six families were minor noble families outside the capital.

In particular, Roheroland was a nobleman from an island nation within the empire. (His family was the only nobleman on that island.)

Ponceau was a notorious drunkard in the area.

Furthermore, in this empire that worshipped the dragon god, his devotion to the god of wine made him seem like an anomaly…

Then there's John Bluvis, a complete good-for-nothing with absolutely no knightly talent.

But through ruthlessness, he successfully killed his father's other sons and became the sole legal heir...

Far Faran is a pagan who believes in light.

The Mordor Griffin... a family of oddballs who have a passion for raising griffins.

In short, after listening to everyone, Li Aili felt that Albert had a problem with his judgment.

The upper-class nobles of the Holy Dragon also didn't quite understand the crowned prince's perspective.

But what Li Aili couldn't understand was...

Why would the descendants of those pillars of the nation trust Albert so much?

Earlier, when Sophia walked over, they all bowed to her with great respect.

However, when they were offended in Sophia, these people did not hesitate to choose to believe Albert.

Li Aili couldn't help but glance at Albert again.

He was talking to John Bluvis.

The pale, sickly young man's eyes gleamed with fanaticism and hidden ambition.

Suddenly, a hand blocked Li Aili's view.

She turned around blankly and saw Arthur looking down at her.

He didn't speak, but his eyes said it all.

Before the banquet ended, Li Aili led the person out of the banquet hall.

Anyway, she could tell that although they were both princes who served as regents, Albert was very domineering in this regard.

She noticed.

Albert clearly has a bit of a 'factional' tendency.

Currently, the two former subordinates of the late Prince Zhenguo are still vying for power.

The Emperor has been keeping a close eye on this issue lately, in case the upper-class nobles add fuel to the fire between the two princes...

So, everyone tacitly chose to deliberately distance themselves from Prince Arthur, who had just entered the Council of Kings, at the banquet.

So, Li Aili led Arthur directly to the back garden.

They sneaked into the Emperor and Empress's rose garden.

Under the moonlight, roses bloomed quietly, their beauty witnessed only by the moonlight and a couple strolling in the garden.

"Arthur, there's something I've always wanted to tell you."

Arthur knew she was looking for a dragon that had sent her to this time and space.

But Arthur didn't know the details.

He didn't know... that they actually met 1000 years later.

I don't know that Li Aili became his wife 1000 years later.

But at that time... the Holy Dragon was gone, and Arthur's family was gone too...
