Jagon.
According to the desert people, the name means "sun", and the largest sun temple in the entire desert is also built in this place.
According to the priests, the fire of life in ancient times continued from here, so the residents living on this land are the oldest nation, and as the best among the oldest nations, the Izdihar family has always been a representative figure.
For hundreds of years, perhaps even for as long as people can remember, this area has been under their control...
Although Jagun in each era is not necessarily the strongest country in the desert, the leadership of the Izdihar family has remained unchanged because they are the only ones who have received the blessing of the sun god and can use the golden sword.
………………
Sean followed the Pterodactyl Knights for three days and finally arrived at Jagun's jurisdiction, which was much shorter than expected.
Fortunately, we flew. If we had walked, it would have taken us ten more days.
"The city of Jagun should be in front, right?" Sean asked Melsusa who was sitting in the front.
I'm still not good at riding a flying dragon, I need an experienced person to lead me...
Besides, the other party would not let him ride a pterosaur alone. Having a high status could sometimes be troublesome.
"Yes, we are almost there!" replied Melsusa.
One can clearly hear the excitement in the words.
It has been several months since they left Jagun. During these months, a lot of manpower and material resources have been consumed in supporting the Basaran Empire, and some soldiers even died on the battlefield.
Now I think it’s a pity that I couldn’t get more compensation from Basaran. The biggest factor in this is myself!
Once the national identities were swapped, Sean began to regret it.
We should have forced Bashalando to come up with some money at the beginning, otherwise who would provide the military expenses this time? Wouldn't Jagon have to pay more?
"Your Highness, do you still remember what your mentor looks like?"
Just when Sean was lost in thought, Mel Susa suddenly asked.
"I don't remember much, but there is a portrait of her at home..." He was not lying. Even if he went through all his memories, he could hardly remember what his mother looked like.
Perhaps the original 'Sean' had already consciously forgotten the other person, and the current me has no memories because I have never experienced it.
Previously, the ability of the [Time Ruler] only allowed him to see things he had experienced in his dreams. Things that were too far away... were no longer visible.
"Indeed, I was still a child when the mentor came back. Your Highness was probably not very old then, so he wouldn't have many memories."
Gradually approaching the city...
Compared with other cities in the desert, this city can directly see the water source. There is even a huge reservoir in the northernmost direction that can be seen. The lake water road is built to converge in a straight line, running through the city from north to south.
In this city, green areas and tall buildings are the most common things to see... The only special thing is the eastern part of the city.
In the only raised mountain area in the entire city plain, a spire can be seen at the highest point, and next to it a group of slightly shorter houses can be seen.
Next to it is a large round plate.
"What is that place?"
"The Temple of the Sun...is a place dedicated to the Sun God. Your Highness will probably go there tomorrow morning. The Master's tomb is buried beneath the temple, and as a returning prince, Your Highness will also pay homage there."
Still so troublesome...
With just a quick glance, Sean could probably imagine that tomorrow would be a busy day.
The Pterodactyl Knights flew directly over the city and landed in front of a huge palace at the foot of the mountain range of the Temple of the Sun...
The area was already full of people.
Melsusa and the other pterodactyl riders jumped down first, then turned around to greet Sean as he slowly walked towards them.
"You're back? You're back... Let me see..."
Sean had just gotten off the pterodactyl when a man in his thirties or forties hurried out from the crowd in front of him. He was wearing a crown and luxurious clothes, and it was obvious that he was the person of the highest status.
And that crown also reveals the other party's identity!
He ran straight to me, stopped for a moment, and then looked me up and down.
“Like, really like!”
"You are..."
Sean had actually already known from the "Excited!" emotion above him that the man before him was the Sun King, but he just didn't know what to call him, so he asked symbolically.
"Child, you are finally back. I am your uncle!"
I'm so excited that sometimes I can't express myself in words.
But the scorching gaze also infected me...
This made Sean, who had always considered himself an outsider, suddenly feel a sense of family affection.
Almost everyone around him was smiling apologetically, and all eyes were focused on him.
In the field of vision...
[Being watched...]*688
I guess that's all the people present.
"uncle."
The other person was even happier after I called him by his name.
"Okay, okay... I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back, come on..." Excited, he pulled Sean and walked forward.
Almost at the same time, everyone knelt down except Sean and the Sun King beside him.
"Welcome back Prince Izdihar!"
"Long live Prince Izdihar!!"
The cheers grew louder and louder, from the square where the pterosaur was staying to the high palace, almost making their ears numb.
But you still have to listen, after all, it’s you who is calling!
I guess the biggest topic in the entire Jagong capital today is my return.
Sean followed the Sun King all the way to the main hall. During the journey, the other party kindly introduced him to the layout of the surrounding buildings. It really felt like an elder taking a younger generation home.
"You just returned, so there's a lot you don't understand yet. If you have any questions, just come to me. Tomorrow we'll go to the Sun Temple to worship together... Tell her you're back."
Melsusa had told me before that I would go to the Temple of the Sun tomorrow.
"Yes, Commander Melsusa just told me."
"Melsusa? Speaking of which, it's all because of her that you were able to come back this time. I will reward her well... If there's anyone else you want to specifically reward, you can also tell me."
Rewards in the form of a state can only be issued by the Sun King himself, so he must be told.
And Sean actually has something he needs to confirm with this 'uncle'...
That is about awarding the title of nobility to Earl Luke of Oro City.
"I really have something I want to trouble you with, uncle...but there are a lot of things, and I need to sort them out."
"It's okay. We'll talk about it tomorrow after the memorial service... Come, I'll introduce you to your brothers and sisters."
The two of them just walked to the door of the hall, and at this moment, two male and two female princesses and princes stood in front of them.
