Chapter 22: The Embarrassment of the King of the Northland

And when the mysterious girl Luna looked at Gusta IV, Gusta IV was also observing the witch princess from the Kingdom of Danlun. The Kingdom of Danlun is the only remaining wizard kingdom in this world, and the rulers of the kingdom for generations have been witches with mysterious magical powers.

Wizards were the original casters of the human world, and compared to later casters such as mages, warlocks, priests, druids, and arcanists, their spellcasting systems were more ancient and primitive, and many spells were more rugged and mysterious.

For some unknown reason, since the end of the distant mythological age, wizards have begun to live in seclusion and no longer get involved in the strife on the continent. As the only remaining wizard land in this world, the Kingdom of Danlun has maintained its current territory since the Dark Age, without expanding by half a cent.

Moreover, since the first ancestor of the royal family of Rain, the Heartless Knight, signed an eternal contract with the Winter Witch of the Kingdom of Danlun and single-handedly established the Kingdom of the Northland and the Church of the Ice Goddess, the Kingdom of Danlun has completely given up its royal rule over the Northland, and the ruler of the entire Northland royal power has been transferred from the Witch of Danlun with the blood of the Scorpion Evil God to the Royal Family of the Star Demon Bloodline.

In the years that followed, the vast kingdom of the Northlands fell apart under the constant onslaught of the thriving Magic Empire, but the great Silver King and Snow White from Dan Lun made an eternal pact to revolt against the brutal rule of the Magic Empire, and after destroying the Magic Empire, re-established the current kingdom of Raythena.

Although the huge kingdom that once unified the Northlands is no longer there, the royal power of the Kingdom of Raindena over the entire Northland is still widely recognized. Moreover, since then, the Kingdom of Rui Grace and the Kingdom of Danlun have also had several marriages, and the blood of the Scorpion and the Star Demon have flowed in each other's families.

As the King of the Northlands, Gusta IV holds many secrets that the world will never know, and knows the secrets of witches and witches better than Princess Eleni.

Every princess in the Kingdom of Danlun has a mysterious demonic blood, and there is a great hope that she will transform into a powerful witch who holds the power of the gods and is immortal in the future.

Gusta IV is a golden knight, although he is already a strong man second only to the knight of the Mandate of Heaven among knights, but he is not a legendary powerhouse after all, and he can't spy on the reality of a demonic daughter who is even more mysterious than an ordinary legendary powerhouse.

"Ethra Jida and Albert's son, the modern-day king of the Northlands, Custer Ryan Ibilis Gusta?"

"Yes!"

Although the mysterious girl's inquiring gaze and words were a bit rude for a king, Gusta IV still nodded and smiled: "Please sit down, beautiful Princess Luna, the blood of the Scorpion and the offspring of the white horse have long been inseparable from each other, please don't be polite, treat this place as your hometown!"

A legendary powerhouse whose power surpasses the world already has the privilege of talking to the king on an equal footing, and as long as there is no fundamental conflict of interest, even a dim-witted and narrow-minded king will not care about a small offense in the words of a legend.

What's more, this princess from the ancient kingdom of Danlun has always had a tradition of marriage with the royal family of Rui Gracena, and in a sense, the two families are even extremely close relatives.

"In some ways, this is really my hometown!"

The mysterious girl Luna thought for a while, nodded seriously, took off her big glasses, looked at Gusta IV with clear eyes like sapphires, and said calmly: "It's a pleasure to meet you, King Gusta! Although my real name can't tell you, but according to the rules of the world, you can call me Luna Gusta Leo Fennier!"

"Luna Gusta Leo Fennier?"

Hearing the name of the mysterious girl Luna, Gusta IV's face couldn't help but show a look of surprise! Although the name of the nobleman does not represent the essence and origin of the soul like the real name of the wizard, it also has its fixed rules, and a person who is familiar with the naming rules of the nobleman can almost immediately deduce the source of the nobleman's bloodline, the inheritance of his parents, the family territory, and many other information.

Gusta is the surname of the royal family of Ray Gracena, which means ancient star in the ancient Northland language, and it represents the ancient source of the royal blood of Ray Gracena, and only members of the royal family with the blood of the Star Demon have always been eligible to put this glorious surname in their names.

As Her Royal Highness the princess from the wizarding realm, it is not surprising that the mysterious girl Luna has a surname representing the blood of the Scorpion Evil God in her name, but there is only one possibility to have the surname of Gu*sta in her middle name......

"Are you ......" Gusta IV thought of a possibility, and looked at the mysterious girl with some hesitation.

"Yes, as you supposed! I am also the son of Esrakida and Albert, and if it were the rules of the world, I should call you brother!"

The mysterious girl Luna said something that shocked everyone with a calm face, and put her large, rimmed glasses on her eyes.

What an unexpected surprise!

Even with King Gusta's calm mind, he couldn't help but twitch his cheeks a few times.

Although King Gusta looks like he is only about thirty years old, he is actually in his sixties this year, although with his Golden Knight level physique, there is still a long time to go before the Golden Knight's ultimate lifespan of more than three hundred years.

But this age is not small among mortals. Now that he has three daughters, and suddenly has a younger sister who looks younger than her youngest daughter, Eleni, how can this not make him feel awkward?

However, this little awkwardness in Gusta IV's heart only lasted for a moment, and he forgot about it. This kind of sibling with a huge age gap is all too common among the nobility!

The bloodline of the knight, whether it is strength or lifespan, is stronger than ordinary people, as long as there is no accident, the natural lifespan of the knight awakened by the bloodline is more than 100 years old, and the golden knight is able to reach the limit of the theoretical lifespan of the human race at 300 years old, as for the legendary powerhouse beyond the mundane, its natural lifespan is at least more than 1,000 years.

Although in general, the more powerful the knight, the more difficult it is to give birth to offspring, but the fact that a knight lives several times longer than ordinary people is enough to make up for the difference in fertility, but the only consequence is that the age gap between the descendants of powerful knights is too large.

As the royal family with the highest bloodline, the kings of the past generations are powerful knights, and their lives are naturally long. With the exception of a few kings who fell on the battlefield or in a conspiracy, most kings had long reigns, so it was not uncommon for children to have children who were as different in age as their grandchildren.

For example, the throne of Gusta IV was inherited neither from his father nor from his grandfather, but from his father's grandfather. The old king Gusta III not only survived most of his sons, but even some of his grandsons died before he died.

Gusta IV's grandfather was the crown prince for more than sixty years, but he lost to his father in the competition for life, and he could only die of depression, and although Gusta IV's father was a powerful knight, he automatically gave up the right to inherit the throne and married a princess of the Danlun Kingdom, and after leaving the only heir, Gusta IV, he went to the Danlun Kingdom and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

It was precisely because of the huge inheritance of his father and grandfather that Gusta IV was able to stand out from the crowd of competitors, win the final victory in the fierce battle for the throne, and calmly sit as the king of the Northlands.
