Chapter 4: The Disruptor and the Successor 2
The world of Jenna, a small world somewhere in the multiverse, is where the power of the gods has not yet been fully touched.
Here, the survivors of Rivadeo await their time for revenge. The mages who had lost their former glory did not dare to restart Rivadeo, so they could only let the glorious Sky City drift on the astral plane, waiting for the right moment or leaving it silent forever.
And on this day, a group of uninvited guests came to the temporary station of the constellation of the world constellation.
The young mage in white robes was the leader. He was about twenty years old, a slender young man with long hair and a shawl, but he had a calm temperament that was rare for young people of this age.
Accompanying him was a beautiful woman who was favored by heaven and earth, with a smile on her face, but the smile was not kind, but full of danger and pride.
Behind him was a middle-aged man with a scarface, who was ordinary in appearance, but with a dangerous and awe-inspiring temperament, he was more like a strong warrior than a mage.
"Clayderman!" When he saw the woman, one of the mages in Sky City gritted his teeth and roared, "Aven!
"What an eyeless trash. The Sylvia-like girl's smile became sinister, and a ghost butterfly floated out of her round fragrant shoulders and flew silently towards the mage who spoke, "I'll be angry if you confuse me with that pseudonym." ”
"Stop!"
Evan and Daniel Davide, the leader opposite, said in unison.
"This isn't Sylvia!" Daniel then explained, "She's not the same as Sylvia. And as I said, Sylvia is not our enemy either. These are special times, and we must distinguish between friend and foe, and we must not let hatred blind us. ”
Daniel looked at the girl, "If you're not mistaken, your Excellency should be Eleni, right?"
"You should call me Her Majesty the Lord of Illusions, Eleni, impolite mage. ”
Daniel frowned and looked at Aven, "Aven, you shouldn't be here today to be our enemy, right?"
"Of course not. Evan stopped the angry Alini, looked past Daniel to look at the Sky City members behind him, and replied clearly, "I'm here today to rekindle the glory of Sky City!"
The air inside froze, and there was no sound except for the sound of the wind blowing through the potted plants in the house.
In the middle of the night, a mage from Sky City couldn't help but laugh, and in an instant, the laughter drowned out the wind.
Someone asked, "You want to restore the glory of Sky City?! Do you want to inherit the throne of His Majesty, the Great Lord of the Stars? Where were you when Sky City fell? Oh, by the way, you are busy fighting with your younger siblings for power and profit, and then ruining your family's equally legendary castle into ruins!"
Evan gritted his teeth and waved his hand to stop the members of the Eye of Time who were about to go berserk behind him.
Only Daniel didn't laugh, he also waved his hand to stop the mage behind him, and asked seriously, "You want us to follow you?"
"Yes!"
"Then tell me, why should we believe you, just by your identity as Clayderman, or by the illusory glory of your past life?" Daniel's expression was serious, "Although you are also a disciple of Master Edwin, with all due respect, the Sky City mages present have never truly considered you to be one of us. ”
Evan looked at him without flinching, "Just because I'm the only one of your closest people who has the ability and motivation to avenge you!"
Before Evan could finish speaking, there was a voice of opposition in the opposing camp, "Nonsense! In our opinion, Master Daniel is the most suitable person!"
Evan ignored the man, just staring at Daniel, waiting for an answer.
Daniel was silent for a long time before he said slowly, "I have to think hard, Aven, please come back today, come back tomorrow, tomorrow, and I'll tell you the answer." ”
"Mage Daniel!!"
"What else is there to think about!"
"I said it!, I'll make the most appropriate judgment!" said Daniel, interrupting the dissent.
Evan looked at the tense atmosphere and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll come back tomorrow at this time, and I hope you'll make a wise choice then, Senior Brother Daniel." ”
With that, Evan nodded to the mages in Sky City, and then left the manor with his subordinates.
After he left, the survivors of Sky City who had learned of the incident quickly gathered and asked Daniel Davide for his opinion. As Edwin's personal disciple, Daniel has always been by Edwin's side, and saved many of his colleagues in the fall of Sky City, and has long been regarded by the surviving mages of Sky City as Edwin's true successor.
Although it is not without people who disagree with Daniel's inheritance, those who can't make it to the climate after all, and soon after the fall of Sky City, left this temporary shelter and looked for a new way out.
As a result, the temporary shelter, which gathers the vast majority of the survivors of Sky City, is full of Daniel's supporters, and in their eyes, it is clear that Daniel is more suitable than Evan to inherit Edwin's throne.
But Daniel knew he wasn't qualified.
He has also undergone body modification to prolong his life, and he has almost lost the qualification to challenge the Root Throne, although there is no evidence that a mage who continues his life in this way cannot become a king, everyone knows that this is the default rule for all mages.
Finally, a representative asked Daniel, "Lord Daniel, are you really going to accept Evan's proposal? To be honest, although he is also a disciple of His Majesty, none of us think that he is a member of Sky City. He is too deeply involved with the Eye of Time, look at the people behind him, where does he want to inherit His Majesty's legacy? In our opinion, it is not an exaggeration to say that he wants to annex us!"
Daniel was silent for a long time, and said what he thought, "However, if you want revenge, you must have the leadership of the king, and you should all know this. Rely on me alone...... It may never lead you to revenge. ”
The mage opened his mouth, he wanted to refute, but he knew that what Daniel said was true.
"And join the rest of ......the kings," Daniel continued, "Do you think we can still maintain the name of the constellation of Sky City?" Compared to the rest of the kings, or the mages who have the potential to become kings, Aven is closer to us, isn't he?"
"That's really ......," said an old mage, "...... Embarrassed! We have disgraced Your Majesty. ”
Everyone was speechless, and Daniel's words were hard to accept, but they were true.
"And ......," Daniel threw the last of his weights, "this is also His Majesty's last words on his deathbed, if he dies unfortunately, he will let me support Aven at all costs, and let Aven return to the throne!"
The survivors of Sky City were convinced.
So the next day, the constellation of the stars merged with the eye of time, and under the leadership of Aven, they traveled to the wreckage of Rivadeo, hoping to rekindle the glory of Rivadeo in the midst of winter.
