Chapter 300: The King of the Blue Lion (I)

What kind of person should the king of the kingdom of the blue lion be? When the door of the throne hall opened, people who had not seen this king in front of the door were thinking about this question. Judging from his age, this king should be younger than the Iron Knight Atticus, but after all, he is a companion of the Grand Duke of Hammer during his adventures, and the dwarves have a longer lifespan than humans, so that the life of the lord in these decades has only made Andrei's figure a little out of shape, so what about being a human king?

Has he completely lost the passion he had had used to fight with his companions, and has become an old man who can only shrunk and shiver in a heavy cloak, and rule the kingdom with gloomy eyes and unpredictable cities? Or has the king once obtained some magical treasure in his adventures that will make his face no longer age, and he will still look like a teenager, and he will greet his great knight with an extraordinary bearing in the midst of this chaos with a glass of wine in his hand?

Everyone has their own guesses about His Majesty. Although the Greylion is a remote capital, it is this country, which makes characters like Lothar, Leon, and even Atticus willing to give everything they have to maintain. It contains the Frost Legion that does not belong to the world south of Dragonspine Mountain, as well as nobles such as Grand Duke Hammer that would not appear in any other human kingdom. Whether or not the kingdom of the Greylion will eventually perish in this plague, it is a magical kingdom. As the king of this kingdom, what should this man with the name of Hearn look like?

The door to the throne hall opened completely, and Cheese and the others walked into the hall under the leadership of the Grand Knight. The mage noticed that the Lion King's Throne Room was ...... compared to kings who always wished their throne was the only conspicuous object in the room Warm. Of course, I'm not saying that it's not solemn enough, whether it's the masonry, barely adorned walls, or the silver bronze lion lampstands on either side of the floor that stretches inward along the gate, give this hall the royal dignity it deserves.

But in addition, the seat a few steps away from the throne, and the intimate hand-stove next to the seat, prove that the owner here is not a ruthless ruler. The mage saw that on the wall behind the throne, the family crests of all the nobles in the kingdom of the blue lion had a place, and they were surrounded by the royal family's emblems regardless of distance and distance, only based on the location of the fief, symbolizing the ruling group of the country.

In front of the map, which is made of family coats of arms, a large wooden throne rises above two steps. With Cheese's eye, he could tell that the throne was carved directly from the stake of a large, ancient tree, and that the lower end of the throne naturally expanded into the roots of the tree, digging deep into the stone brick floor of the throne room. It is as if to say that the king on the throne will become one with his country like the roots of a tree.

"You must have something important to do with me at this time, Mr. Atticus. A voice came from the throne. The voice drew everyone's eyes from the décor and layout of the throne room to the figure seated there.

The name of this kingdom is really apt. This was the idea of the man who met the king for the first time. They saw that the man on the throne had silver-white hair and beard, which, though carefully built, was still lush and thick, and when they joined together on the king's face, the man did look like a lion with a majestic mane. Beneath the silver-white hair, those dark yellow eyes exuded the majesty of a king. The king's age was too much to tell because of the hair on his face, and he sounded like he was a little older.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. The Iron Knight walked to the foot of the throne, got down on one knee, bowed his head and replied, "I have brought some warriors who can solve the problem at hand for the lion. ”

The lion on the throne listened to Atticus's words and looked at the people behind the Grand Knight, and when they were stared at by those eyes, everyone had the illusion that they were not in front of a man, but a beast that had just been fed. The king looked at Cheese and Heather for a few more seconds before he spoke, "Stand up first, Mr. Atticus. A few young friends, please find a place to sit down, and the fire at your hand will dispel the chill in the rain. Also, Heather, it's good to see you here. ”

When Cheese and the others were seated, the knightess remained in place, kneeling before the king like Atticus. "I beg your forgiveness for leaving my allegiance to my lord at this time. ”

"But I am not the one to whom you are allegiant, Lady Heather, and forgive you until André does it. Still, I don't think the dwarf would have been able to care so much after seeing that you were safe. The man on the throne shook his head, his voice shining with joy, it was clear that he didn't care about Heather's desertion, and as far as he knew about the relationship between the knightess and the dwarven dukes, the latter only cared about Heather's safety. André treats his chief knight like his own daughter, which is not news to the ears of the dwarven old friend and king.

"Thank you for your kindness. Heather stood up and sat down beside the Grand Knight.

"Hmm...... Let me guess, if my eyes weren't cloudy, you must have come from the north, and I hope the plague hasn't reached the foot of Mount Dragon's Back. The king nodded at Jack with a polite smile on his face.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. As far as I know, our hometown has not been affected. Mona, the highest-ranking soldier in the Frost Guards, stood up and touched her chest with her hands, and said respectfully to the king. Now she could understand why her ancestors had agreed to join the kingdom in name, and if every generation of the Greylion kings knew how to respect the one in front of them, the Northlanders couldn't let go of their stubbornness.

"That's good. I'm ashamed to say that although I am the guardian of the entire realm of this kingdom, I am afraid that I am the most incompetent monarch in the history of the blue lion. The eyes of the king of the blue lion slowly welled up with gloomy emotion, and he sighed, his powerlessness against the nezumi plague made him sleep for a long time.

"I don't think so. As the king of a human kingdom, you and your warriors are impressive. The gray-robed mage rose from his seat to attract the king's attention.

"And you, the gray-robed guest. To be honest, your presence makes me feel even more uneasy. The Lord of the Blue Lion looked at Cheese and said in a deep voice.
