The eyes full of vicissitudes of life, embedded in the 18-year-old childish face, have an indescribable sadness.

Halfway up the Sacred Sword Mountain, Ray saw what Julian was doing in the palace, and he only sighed, then turned away, not wanting to look at it again.

Ray wasn't alone, and behind him stood two other blonde-haired and golden-robed teenagers.

"Have you done everything you have to do?" one of the two teenagers transformed by the Golden Dragon Clan asked Lei coldly.

"Hmm. It's done. Ray also replied coldly.

This is the last thing that Ray has not been able to let go of when he is a human. It's not an older brother, it's not another little friend, but Julian, who doesn't communicate deeply, but makes Ray feel a little similar to his own experience. Now that Julian's choice is known, Ray's last thoughts as a human have disappeared from this world, and for hundreds or thousands of years to come, Ray will continue to live in another life form.

"Huh", "Huh", "Huh" - on the top of the dense canopy of the Holy Sword Mountain, the three-headed golden dragon soared into the sky and flew into the clouds at a very fast speed before people could even spot them. Just like when you visit, you leave quietly.

King James VI of Sealand, who was not rated as a Ming monarch in the later history of the kingdom, had another factor besides waging a war in the last two years of his life that should not have been waged.

......

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......"

The loyal servants knelt down with tears and wept, and gathered around the corpse of the old king, who had lost his breath, and could not swallow it.

The outside of the main hall door was shattered, but the inside of the door was unusually quiet. Prince Harun picked up the scepter and crown from the ground and walked over to his father, who was lying in a pool of blood. None of the four princes who gathered around the old king came out to stop or rebuke Harun. The big picture was settled, and the four princes knew they had no more leverage to stop Harun. What you see in the eyes of these four princes is not so much anger as fear.

Harun was not afraid of being attacked by the four brothers, and he half-knelt beside his father, placed the scepter in his hand, which was getting cold, and then put the crown on his blood-stained head, and then lifted his father's body so that he could sit cross-legged in a more solemn posture. After sitting down, Harun knelt down in front of his father.

The other four princes also knelt down together, bowing their heads and grieving. At this time, the coup soldiers who came in with Prince Harun by force also took off their helmets, laid down their weapons, and half-knelt on the ground, bowing their heads in mourning.

At this time, the only person standing with his head held high in the main hall was Julian, who was the murderer of the king.

......The wall next to the main hall was violently smashed through a large hole. The grizzled commander of the Royal Guards, General Wallace, rushed in. Outwardly, the general's injuries were worse than Julian's, the nerve in his left arm was severed, and one arm hung loosely under his shoulder, unable to pick up a shield.

Unable to break through the blockade set by the coup army at the entrance of the main hall, the anxious commander broke through the walls in order to rush to his monarch's side as soon as possible, but when he finally arrived, he saw His Majesty's bloody corpse.

"Your Majesty......" Wallace's face turned white, "Your Highness Harlan, he is your father, you dare to ......"

"It has nothing to do with him, I did it. Julian, who had been silent, finally spoke.

"You...... What have you done!" Wallace turned his head and glared fiercely at Julian.

"I killed him. Julian replied nonchalantly, "Because Harlan can't do it." ”

"Yikes!"

Wallace was furious, and desperately raised his sword to slash at Julian.

"Stop!" Harlan drank the general.

"Your Highness Harun, are you conniving at your subordinates to commit murder?"

"That's right, Harun!" said the youngest eighth prince, "if you let this murderer of my father go unpunished, we will not obey you!"

As soon as the eighth prince spoke, the other three princes also expressed their positions, demanding that Harlan execute Julian. They knew that there was no way to stop Harun from ascending to the throne, but if they could take this opportunity to cut off one of Harun's arms, there would be one less great resistance to his comeback.

In the face of a tidal siege, Julian was unhurried. He took off the third sword pinned to his waist and which Wallace cared so much about, and ripped off the gray linen cloth that covered his appearance, revealing the golden scabbard and hilt.

"Bang--"

With a crisp sword roar, Julian drew his sword and raised it high. The golden light and powerful magic power emanating from the golden sword instantly filled the entire main hall, dazzling everyone's eyes.

"Is this sword a ......" General Wallace, who was standing closer, of course, saw the sword itself most clearly, and closed his mouth in surprise.

Not only General Wallace, but also the four princes saw the sword.

On the walls around the ancestral hall of the Imperial Palace, there are murals carved with the previous four masters of the holy sword holding the holy sword and commanding the army to kill the enemy. Although the four frescoes were carved in different times and in the style of the craftsmen, the image of the holy sword "Eternal Victory" in the painting is exactly the same, exactly like the golden sword in Julian's hand at this time.

"Uncle Wallace, you were wrong when you said Julian was my subordinate. Prince Harun said.

"This man, is he, is he ......" General Wallace muttered to himself, unable to believe it.

......

There is a very important reason why James VI cannot be named a Ming Jun in the history of the Kingdom of Sealand, and it is because he was personally sanctioned by the fifth owner of the Holy Sword.

In contrast to the Kingdom of Sealand, which had been defeated in a war with its enemies and had a palace coup d'état, another great power across the Olopa Sea was also mired in war.

The border between the Kingdom of Pole and the Fayele Empire. Groups of refugees pushed all their belongings in wheelbarrows and fled south in a panic.

The civil war in the Fayele Empire has been going on for more than a year, and the rebels led by Prince Carloton have captured the imperial capital of Byrne, ending the rule of Emperor Charlotte I, and also co-opting most of the former imperial army, but due to the "Holy City" The Central Church was unable to send high-ranking clergy to coronate Prince Carloton, so until now, Prince Carloton was still only a prince, and the once powerful Fayale Empire spent most of the year without a monarch.

In the north, the Four-Power Alliance, which intervened in the Franco-Yale Civil War, withdrew from the Loma Kingdom due to civil strife over the food problem and withdrew its troops, but the other three countries still insisted on occupying the lands of the Fayye Empire. Although Prince Carloton's regime sent several waves of conquests, the Fayle Imperial Army was not as strong as before after this internal conflict, and there were other resistance forces in the country that dispersed the strength of the Imperial Army.

Among the many rebel forces, the "People's Autonomous Commune" in the south grew rapidly with a single momentum, and gradually became a confidant of Prince Carloton, who was not yet hot on the buttocks. The key to the rapid growth of this rabble is that they have gained great support among ordinary civilians who have no power or power with the main idea of banning the book "Equal Nation".

Of course, not everyone agrees with and has confidence in the future of the "popular self-government commune", otherwise there would not have been so many refugee flows.

In the midst of the influx of refugees to the south, a "father and daughter" went in the opposite direction, heading for the war-torn Fayale Empire in the north.

It is not accurate to say that they are "father and daughter", the two of them are just a combination of a middle-aged man and a young girl, but the girl's respect and sincere fear towards the middle-aged man make many people mistakenly think that they are a pair of "father and daughter".
