Chapter 50: Love at First Sight

Nine years ago, the demon plague had just subsided.

The city of Memphis, which experienced the dark tide, fell into decay due to the siege of monsters, and was restored to prosperity due to the favor of the Sun King.

......

At nightfall in New Memphis, the night is dispelled by the lights of the surrounding buildings, and the warm pale yellow lights like angelic hugs quietly envelop the city, creating an atmosphere of total relaxation and trying to make people forget the pain caused by the disaster.

This is also the prime time for war-torn people seeking nighttime entertainment.

At the intersection in the center of the city, a large hotel shrouded in warm lights is emanating with the sound of a noisy noise, and in the crystal window mirrors of the hotel, multi-colored lights are undulating like a tide, and a large number of young men and women writhing on the dance floor, sweating along with the passionate music of the space.

Outside the dance floor, witchers and veterans sit in booths clinking glasses and telling their stories, remembering their fallen comrades and telling their stories, while the bubbles of golden fruit wine waft through the air, and freshly baked pastries and barbecues release an enticing aroma that anesthetizes everyone's nerves along with alcohol.

Suddenly, the music on the dance floor was drowned out by a cacophony of whistles and screams.

People looked towards the source of the noise and found two graceful, youthful and beautiful hostesses, carrying silver dinner plates from the backstage to the dance floor.

Walking on the left is a beautiful girl with a golden slender long ponytail, who looks young at seventeen or eighteen years old, and her fluffy and neat flat bangs are tilted on her smooth and white forehead, revealing a vigorous youthful atmosphere.

On that delicate face full of pride, the straight nose bridge is full of heroism, the eyes are like emeralds, and the lips are as bright as peach blossoms—especially a little tear mole under the right eye, which embellishes this proud and pretty face with a bit of charm, making her look full of charm.

In the process of walking, a black vest forcibly highlighted her plump twin peaks, revealing two very conspicuous protrusions; although the breasts were mature and full, the girl's figure did not look plump, but extremely slim. The buttocks are covered by the miniskirt, outlining a seductive arc, as if they are budding flower bones. The legs of the golden ratio are slender and well-proportioned, and from a distance, they give people a wild and different charm.

And next to this girl, the waitress with short flaxen-colored ear-length hair, although slightly pale compared to her, is also a rare beauty.

The two gracefully walked into the wine pool with screams and whistles along the way, and sold the expensive drinks on the tray to the guests who were fascinated by them. When the drinks were swept away by the guests, they returned with tips and drinks to the salivating gaze of the men.

The backstage of the hotel.

Two beautiful girls who have finished selling their drinks are chatting in their lounge, laughing at those stupid and people by the way.

The short-haired girl held her face with her hands, looked at her with a warm look, and said with a little envy:

"Akanna, those men are all fascinated by you. ”

"Because men are boring fools. ”

The blonde girl, who would later be Madame Violet, picked up the tall glass in front of her in an elegant posture and drank the wine in it slowly: "As long as we pretend to be very close to him, he will feel very proud, and then willingly pay a lot of money for the envious eyes of others." ”

"You can't say that...... Aren't people pleasing you, too?" said Louis, the head maid of the Violet Mansion in the future, a short-haired girl, weakly.

"yes, didn't I give them something in return?" Akhena put down his glass and made a kissing gesture, "As long as that's it, they'll be very happy, too." ”

"But we can't go on like this, we can't keep selling alcohol. Louis covered his face and said a little shyly: "Among those who please us, we should find a rich and handsome man to marry." ”

"Just those fools?" Akhena glanced at his friend in surprise, then raised his head slightly like a proud peacock, "I won't marry those people, they are stupid and poor, how can they deserve my beauty." ”

"That'...... What kind of person does Akhena want to marry?" Louis asked curiously.

"Me?"

Akhena bowed her head in thought, and then poured herself another glass of fruit wine, the sweet and sour and full of bubbles that she drank in one cup, and a faint flush crept up her face:

"I want to marry someone who is as high as the sun, incomparable, and overlooking all beings!"

“...... Do you really have such people? Your ideals are too ethereal. Louis frowned and shook his head.

"If not, I'd rather not marry! It's better to be single for the rest of my life than to marry a mediocre person. Akhena said dismissively.

Looking at her best friend's serious expression, Louis felt that she was not lying, and she did not feel that there was anything wrong - after all, it is natural for a beauty like her to be arrogant.

......

Soon after, the Sun King returned from the surface of the moon and completely destroyed the Lord of Radiance, the source of the demonic plague, and peace was restored to the world.

In order to promote the great cause he had founded, and to stabilize the hearts and minds of the people after the disaster, the incarnation of the king of the gods announced that he would patrol the country in order to demonstrate the legitimacy and virtue of the dynasty.

The city of Memphis, a dangerous city that he had personally saved in the past, was an important part of the god-king's inspection path.

After receiving the news of the king's arrival, the entire city of Memphis was suddenly lit up with lights and bronze bells, and fell into a frenzied atmosphere. The crowds of people who tried to pay homage stretched from outside the city to the junction of the full road, and everywhere there were taut cordons, and people with prepared flowers and ribbons, bathed in the biting cold wind, were full of excitement and awaited the arrival of the king.

Akhena had not intended to get involved in it, and even found it boring, for she had the impression that the Sun King was a majestic and kind old man who gave orders like a machine and was admired like a god.

But Louis can't stand it, because her father is a veteran who was saved by the Sun King when Memphis was on the verge of collapse - although the old man soon died of his wounds, he left a large pension for the family. Louis lived a prosperous life with this pension, so he also had a certain degree of affection for the Sun King.

Under Louis's fierce pleas, Akona braved the cold wind and squeezed with her into the crowd on both sides of the road.

Seeing how hard they were squeezed, and the men who were still very simple-minded gave them vacant seats, Louis whispered thanks, but Akhena seemed unimpressed.

Akhenami's eyes glanced around, and when she saw the expressions of reverence and longing on everyone's faces, she frowned, and couldn't help but mutter:

"A bunch of sycophants. ”

"How can you say that!" Louis heard her say this, and immediately refuted: "This generation of Sun Kings is really powerful, everything he has done since he came to power is enough to go down in history. It skillfully defused the invasion of aliens and brought advanced science and technology to the empire...... Reduced taxes, recuperated, and completely eradicated the demonic plague. Governing the country with leniency and benevolence, and eliminating civil disasters by force, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a rare virtuous king for thousands of years. ”

"Not a bad old man yet. Akhena sneered.

"Who told you that the Sun King is a bad old man? I tell you, the Sun King is only twenty years old this year! It is rumored that he was born with a brilliant appearance, so that he can be favored by the queen and made the new king. And when you studied abroad with outsiders, you captured the hearts of many women! How can you be regarded as a bad old man by you? Louis hurriedly corrected.

"So young?" Akona looked at his best friend's serious expression, revealing a look of surprise.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

"His Majesty the Sun King is coming! His Majesty's car is coming!"

"I saw it too, you see the honor guard has arrived!"

At this moment, the people on both sides of the road suddenly stirred, and everyone began to rush forward spontaneously, which made the guards who maintained law and order cry out in distress.

On the gray volcanic stone road, the sound of majestic and heavy footsteps gradually sounded, and six rows of Corona Knights floated side by side on the horizon, and under them six traveling birds of the same coat set their heads high, leading the Sun Wheel Banner to the sun, and the flag in the sun was like a burning golden sun.

"Hooray!

With shouts of joy, the musicians blew brass horns into the air, and the crowd waved and threw brightly colored petals.

After the Corona Knights marched through the road in a neat and expressionless formation, a gorgeous carriage of molten gold floated on the horizon under the guard of honor. It was pulled by eight horses all dressed in gold and covered in golden flames—the Sun Warhorses marched side by side in two rows, driving the spacious and luxurious golden chariots slowly across the road.

There is no need to be introduced, as long as you are a Menes, you can recognize the origin of the golden chariot at a glance - it is the Sun Palace, a chariot that only the king of the gods is qualified to drive! It is this chariot that the legendary Sun God drove from the east of the world to the west of the world, bringing light and warmth to all living beings.

"Long live! Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

"Long live! Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

"Long live! Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

The cheers of the people suddenly became more enthusiastic than ever, and as if they didn't want money, they threw flower petals and colorful cloth with all their might.

The sun-wheel battle flags on a white background and Phnom Penh stand on both sides of the Sun Imperial Rim to stretch out their majestic posture, and the well-equipped and magnificent Holy Army is simultaneously parallel on both sides of the Sun Imperial Rim. They held red flags in their hands, and after deliberately releasing light energy, they appeared to be surrounded by flames and filled with golden light.

The majesty of the chariot driver's honor guard is so that all the admirers have an impulse to bow and worship.

"Hooray! you are the god-king who is, was, and will always be!" Louis shouted as he waved the small flag in his hand and jumped up and down in the crowd.

"......" Looking at this scene, Akon's slightly distracted face was raised, and his lips in the color of rose petals opened slightly, revealing a trance expression.

Just as the king drove to the intersection of Memphis City, with a neat crisp sound of "bang", the holy army suddenly drew his sword and saluted to the surrounding onlookers. The large snowy silver light splashed down like a wave, and the sound of the blade breaking through the air was shocking, and the cheering crowd around couldn't help but breathe.

"Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

"Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

"Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

After a brief silence, the cheers were like the tide of the sea, resounding in all directions. The inhabitants of Memphis City crowded the streets, spontaneously saluting the position of the Sun's Throne, their eyes filled with frenzy and reverence.

"Hold supreme power and be revered as the gods...... That's a man. ”

At this moment, Akon felt almost dizzy, and her mood could no longer be explained by excitement or shock—her mind had drifted to the inside of the Sun Throne with the cheers of everyone, to the man who shone on the empire like the scorching sun.

She felt an unprecedented thrill, experienced an unprecedented excitement, and before she knew it, she recalled what she had said to her best friend - I want to marry someone who is as high as the sun, incomparable, and overlooking all beings!

Suddenly, Akhena's gaze seemed to be drawn to the redhead woman who was driving the carriage for the Sun King.

"Hey, Louis, who is that woman driving for Your Majesty?" she asked in a whisper.

"Looks like it's called Rennie, right? He is said to be a close confidant of His Majesty, and he is very trusted. Louis replied in her ear.

“......”

Looking at the woman standing in front of the sun's chariot, Akhena's beautiful eyes gradually became fierce, and finally revealed a little hostility.

But soon, her eyes were attracted by something new—the figure sitting behind the heavy curtain in the Sun Throne suddenly reached out and tore open the curtain, and took a step forward into everyone's sight.

The Lord of the Empire of Menes, the embodiment of the Sun God, and the spokesman of the will of the gods, raised his hands in front of the eyes of the crowd, and confidently and proudly announced to everyone:

"I, Ivan, King of the World, Great King!"

"King of the World, Great King!"

"King of the World, Great King!"

"King of the World, Great King!"

For this king who single-handedly turned the fortunes of the country and saved the world, people did not hesitate to give the highest praise.

“......”

In the wave of cheers, Akhena bit his lip, his eyes were wet, and he subconsciously held his chest with both hands, his heart was hot, and the overflowing emotion almost poured out of his chest. Suddenly, she tightened her legs, and the crystalline viscous liquid dragged a glittering silk thread from under the long black skirt and dripped to the ground.

At this moment, after seeing the true face of the Sun King, Akhena finally believed what his best friend had said to him before-"I tell you, the Sun King is only twenty years old this year! It is rumored that he was born with a brilliant appearance, so he can be favored by the queen at a glance and made the new king." And when you studied abroad with outsiders, you captured the hearts of many women! How can you be regarded as a bad old man by you as a god-like figure!"
