Chapter 21: The Beginning of the Chosen King

"I am sorry for you to come here and gather all the adults of the Sage Society here for the purpose of electing the next king, that is, to convey to you the important announcement of the king's election."

"The cause of the incident is that about half a year ago, led by the former king, the bloodline of the royal family died one after another, resulting in the almost extinction of the royal family of the kingdom, and the situation of a country without a king is already the biggest dilemma of the kingdom."

"Not to mention that for Lugnica, the pro-dragon kingdom, the existence of the king is related to the covenant with the dragon, and without the king who is the role of the dragon witch, the kingdom cannot maintain the covenant with the dragon."

Therefore, during the dragon ritual to renew the covenant, after communicating with the dragon, the kingdom decided to select a qualified shrine maiden. A new successor will be sought for a new successor to a major responsibility that has been passed down from generation to generation by the royal family. ”

"We, the Knights of the Guard, have received orders from the Lords of the Sage Society to find the Dragon Shrine Maiden who has been chosen by the Dragon Balls."

"According to the prophecy of the Dragon Calendar, when the Lugonica Covenant is broken, a new Dragon Shrine Maiden will guide the nation. There are five new dragon shrine maidens, and one of the chosen shrine maidens will make an alliance with the dragon. ”

"Please show the Dragon Balls." Marcos set his sights on the four chosen ones in front of the high platform.

The girls called out in response, raising their badges to the front.

In an instant, the brilliance of the gems on top of the badge rendered the entire hall colorful.

Seeing this, the knights of the guards sighed, and even the members of the Sage Guild showed expressions of relief.

"As you can see, each candidate has the qualifications of a dragon shrine maiden. After confirmation, we will follow the dragon calendar stone ......"

"Enough is enough?" A gentle voice interrupted Markos's speech.

The speaker was a cheerful girl with long, wavy light purple hair, very small, dressed in a white gown decorated with a lot of fur, and carrying a large, pranky double-beaded purse.

Anastasia Hesin, one of the candidates for the king's election, is the owner of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce. Originally, he was just a low-level commoner in Kalaraki, but he relied on his outstanding business talent to establish the Chamber of Commerce and develop rapidly, and even incorporated it into its banner after defeating the Kalaraki Chamber of Commerce. It is even called by the Kalaraki as the return of the heroic wasteland that once defeated the ogre beast.

"I understand very well that Mr. Captain wants to finish his words neatly, but people are also very busy. There is a saying in Kalaraki that 'time is as precious as money'! The girl smiled beautifully, "Now that everyone knows about Wang Xuan, I want to hear the real reason for summoning us this time." ”

"Others think so, right?" The purple-haired girl began to ask for the advice of the other Chosen Ones.

The person to Anastasia's left is a woman in a military uniform. She has long forgiveness-colored hair, a tall figure for a woman, and a sword hanging from her waist, which is engraved with the family crest of a lion with fangs exposed.

She is Kurtius Karsten, the person with the highest voice in this election. The Karsten family is a historic ducal family that has long supported the Kingdom of Lugnica. And Kursius inherited the title at a young age, so you can imagine how high his fame and talent are.

Kursius nodded in agreement.

And Priscilla's attention at the moment was all on Qin Mo on the high platform, completely ignoring her.

Only Emilia slowly raised her hand and said, "I, I think I should finish the conversation." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm not asking for your opinion!" Anastasia's attitude towards Emilia is extremely cold.

Emilia lowered her head, a painful expression appeared on her face as she was treated maliciously.

Seeing this scene, Qin Mo silently made a note of Anastasia in his heart.

"I'm sorry for the busy Anastasia-sama, but I hope you'll cooperate with this meeting a little longer, after all, today is a day that could go down in the annals of the kingdom of Luganica." McRotov finally spoke.

Hearing this, the atmosphere of the hall, which had lost its tension, became serious.

On the high platform, McRotov nodded lightly to Marcos. Marcus also saluted the old man.

"Knight Rheinharut Van Astrea, out of the ranks!" Marcos' voice resounded through the hall again.

"Yes, all of you of the Honourable Sage, Rheinharut van Asterea, who is part of the Knights of the Guard, report that the mission is complete. The Witch of the Dragon, the candidate for the King's Election, and the last fifth person has been found. ”

The noise spread among the knights, and the expressions of the others among the Chosen One, except for Amilia, who had already known about it, changed.

After bowing to the Wise Men on the high platform, Rheinharut turned his gaze to the door that had just been opened.

There was a blonde-haired girl in a light yellow gown, accompanied by two maids behind her, as she walked down the hall.

The familiar red pupils and tiger teeth are none other than the former slum Firut. After changing into clothes, it becomes dazzling.

"I want to honor the man who is king, and his name is Lord Firut."

Emilia was shocked to see Firut, and at the same time understood why Rheinharut had taken the girl.

"Lord Firut, thank you for your visit here." Rheinharut saluted respectfully.

Firut slowly walked over to Rheinharut's side.

Rheinharut placed the badge in her arms on her hand, and the jewel on the badge immediately glowed white.

This indicates that Firut's identity is none other than the fifth dragon shrine maiden, one of the candidates for the king's election.

At this time, Filut did not make a big fuss like in the original plot and gave Rheinharut a kick, but was very obedient and calmly took the badge.

Qin Mo on the high platform looked at this scene and felt very interesting.

Although I don't know exactly what happened, it seems that it was influenced by the fact that on the first day after coming to the royal capital, he found Roma Ye and sent him to Asterea's house, which made Firut decide to participate in the king's election.

"It's rude, can you say something?"

A man came out of the aristocratic collective, a hunchbacked middle-aged man, with two large dark circles under his eyes, and a beard caressing his chin somewhat nervously.

"The dedication of the Knights of the Kingdom Guard in this ceremony to elect the king is indeed commendable, but is there something wrong with the selection of the king?"

"What do you mean?" Marcos' eyes narrowed slightly.

"Everyone is too concerned about the qualifications of the Dragon Shrine Maiden, but the qualification to wear the crown is the key, and this aspect is too underestimated." The hunchbacked man said proudly.

"You mean, I'm wrong to wait for the Knights of the Guards to exhaust our efforts to find the Dragon Shrine Maiden?" Marcos's tone became unkind.

"It's a little bit different, but it's going to be like that." The hunchbacked man pointed at Emilia and said, "Don't you think it's a very dirty thing to have a silver-haired half-demon among the Chosen One?" ”

The atmosphere in the air slowly became tense.

Qin Mo thought about it, Lugnica seemed to have a setting of discord between civilian officials and military attachΓ©s.

Is it now because Firut didn't stand up as a target, so he focused all his fire on Emilia?

Looking at the hunchbacked neurotic middle-aged man, Qin Mo felt a little angry after a long time.
