Chapter 259: Family Affection, Ambition
"Akali, I've heard about you, and you and your companions have suffered." Lucas I stroked Akali's beautiful blonde hair, and his tone was very happy, but his eyes looked at the Dawn Knight Gate on the scene, and his eyes were a little complicated and indescribable.
"Meet Your Majesty the King!"
Elena, as a noble lady, reacted quickly and knelt down first, while the rest of the people also knelt on the ground.
Lucas I's gaze swept over everyone present, lingering on Elena's face for a second.
Elena hurriedly lowered her head and bent down, she knew that Rucas I must hate herself, after all, her Wings of Light had brought great trouble to Lucas I, and also frustrated him, but now, she is a knight of the Knights of the Dawn, no matter how dissatisfied she is, but for the sake of Akali, she must endure it.
"Father, they are all excellent warriors and generals, and thanks to them our land will be restored, otherwise we would not have been able to do it alone with a child. Akali saw that something was wrong with the atmosphere and hurriedly said.
"Well, I've heard from both Kelly and Ryan, and thank you for your help to Akali and your indelible contribution to the kingdom of Lucas, especially the two of you, Miss Elena and Mr. Rex. As if he had completely forgotten his old hatred, Lucas I first expressed his gratitude to Elena. "Thank you and Rogue Rex for rescuing my daughter Catalina at risk, and I express my deep condolences for your father's loss, Mr. Rex. ”
"And the others, including your great companion in Europe, Akali, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude. ”
As he spoke, Lucas I suddenly bowed deeply, much to the surprise of everyone present.
"Your Majesty the King doesn't have to be so polite, this is what we should do!"
"......" But Yun Hai, who was watching the play on the side, snorted coldly in his heart. "This Lucas is really good at acting, obviously very reluctant in his heart, but he still gives enough face. ”
"Akali, my child. Lucas I's gaze turned to Akali. "You are a hero of all Europe, you have made an indelible contribution to the peace of Europe, even after thousands of years, I believe that the people of Europe will still praise your deeds, just like the great King Arthur!"
"Father, I just did what I had to do, I am a member of the Lucas family, and I am also your daughter, and I have the responsibility and obligation to maintain the stability of this country. Akali remained unfazed, unfazed by Lucas's praise.
"Hahaha...... She is my daughter, well said!" Lucas I laughed loudly. "However, I must reward you for your heroic deeds!Let's go to the square, Ryan, please gather all the soldiers at once, gather in the square, and I want them to see what a wonderful daughter I have!"
"I'll go. Ryan immediately turned and walked away.
"Yunhai, I thank you for your support of Akali. Lucas turned his gaze to the sea of clouds to the side. "I've heard Ryan say how many times you've come up with your advice, even risking your own life, to help Akali defeat the rebels, I really don't know how to thank you. ”
"Your Majesty is really too polite, what Yunhai has done, even a small part of Your Majesty's life-saving grace is difficult to repay. Although Yun Hai was scolding the old fox in his heart, he was very polite and hurried to return the salute.
"And the Butterfly King, if you hadn't informed us of the danger in time, I'm afraid that we would have been wiped out by the Asura a long time ago. Lucas I turns his gaze back to Fluttershy. "Although I only have a few faces to you, if you have any needs, don't be polite, just tell me and Akali that we will do our best to meet them. ”
"Ahh......h Your Majesty is polite......" Fluttershy said timidly, she was not good at dealing with such situations, so she had to answer like this, but it was this kind of answer that Lucas I couldn't do the most.
Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering trumpet from outside.
"Alright, the soldiers should have begun to assemble now, so let's get over there. ”
The group left the tent of the Chinese army and came to the square, where Yunhai once dueled with Fenrir.
"It's really a thing, and when I come back here in a few months, it's already like this. Yunhai couldn't help but sigh.
"Foolish man, what is this going to do?" Fluttershy was a little confused as she saw tens of thousands of soldiers lined up around the square, and Lucas I ascended to the high platform in the center.
"Probably to canonize Akali and them, how did your Asura royal family come about, such as your title of Returning Butterfly King?" Yun Hai explained.
"We were directly determined at birth, and there was no canonization ceremony, basically after the children of the royal family were born, the current Asura Emperor gave a title, which is actually similar to a name. Fluttershy thinks for a moment.
"That's really sad enough......" Yunhai was a little helpless.
In an instant, only Akali and her Knights of the Dawn are left in the vast plaza, as well as Clouds and Fluttershy.
"Soldiers, in the midst of our fierce battle with the various sects of Shenzhou and the mysterious Asura, our distant hometown, Europa, has fallen into a catastrophe that has never been seen before. "Lucas I, still with his sonorous voice, as an orator, began to make impassioned speeches. "Prince Trist was not satisfied with his status, usurped my throne, ruled our homeland with blood and violence, many people we originally respected, or were ruthlessly eradicated by him, and he even tried to spread death and chaos to every inch of Europe with the help of evil and forbidden life magic, and Europe fell into turmoil. ”
The soldiers began to whisper, they had never heard of the news, and they began to worry about their families.
"But fortunately, after returning to Europe, my daughter, Princess Akali, started with almost three people, slowly united all the forces that were unwilling to give in, and in less than three months, completely eliminated the evil regime of Trist, and returned light and justice to our homeland, and now in front of us, these people who saved our hometown and created this great achievement that is enough to go down in history forever!"
After a few seconds of silence, thunderous applause erupted.
"Today, they are back, and these heroes will help us fight against the evil and powerful Asura, and until then, we must be grateful to them!"
"Now, for his great service to the expulsion of the rebels, the reunification of Europe, and the preservation of the kingdom's territory, I declare that the members of the Knights of the Dawn, Elena Frecleman, Wallace Rex, Reinhardt Thomas, Sherlock Duran, Martin Chris, White Merlin, Eve Moonshadow, Alma, Wood Nelson, the Earl of the Kingdom of Lucas!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Elena and her party immediately fell to their knees.
"Next, because of the merits of preserving the hundreds of thousands of civilians in the city of Rome at a critical moment, I announce that Blake Friedrich has been promoted from earl to marquis!"
Blake wasn't here, so his title could only be communicated to him by messenger.
"And my two daughters, Akali Lukas and Katerina Rucas, have been given the title of Duke of the Kingdom of Rukas by me for their great exploits in defeating Trist's power!"
"Thank you, Father!" Akali fell to her knees without much surprise.
"Rise up, heroes. Lucas I nodded in satisfaction. "In addition, I announce that the knight group created by Princess Akali, the Knights of the Dawn, will be officially recognized by the Kingdom of Akas, under the direct jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Ukas, and will be under the command of the head of the Knights, Princess Akali, and I will immediately assign some excellent warriors to join the Knights and expand their strength!"
"At the end of the day, there are the two distinguished guests of our Lucas Kingdom, the Sea of Clouds, and the King of Gui Butterfly. Lucas I continued. "Because of Yunhai's strong support for Princess Akali, which is crucial to the reunification of Europe, and because King Guidie has notified us of the impending crisis regardless of his personal safety, and helped Princess Akali unify Europe, I declare that Yunhai and King Guidie are the highest level of honor I have ever been honored with and enjoy the courtesy of a duke!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Clouds and Fluttershy bow.
After the end of the reward, the top of the Tianshan Mountain.
"Akali, what are you going to do now?" Yun Hai said lightly, looking at the passing smoke clouds in the distance.
"My father really won't let me go easily, but it seems that my father has begun to be jealous of our strength, at least my father won't do anything to us easily. ”
"Stupid man, I think Your Majesty is still very good, didn't he give us a lot of rewards?" Fluttershy wondered.
"Come on, there is a reward alone, have you seen the real power?" Yun Hai couldn't help but sneer. "If you don't have real power, even if he makes you a god, in the end it means that you won't be rewarded at all, and the title just sounds good, what's the point. ”
"Yes, my father is very smart, even if he has a knighthood, he doesn't give a fief, just to limit our strength, and he also kindly helps the Dawning Knights recruit members, the purpose of which is to let his people account for the majority of the knights, so as to control the initiative of the knights, what a ruthless move!"
