Hail the King

“It is King Alexander! Why is he here?” Out of the four people who were quietly cultivating in the secret room in the basement, the person who detected Fei first and opened his eyes said frantically, “Did he discover us? Impossible! The walls of this room contain a stealth magic array that our master put up. How could he sense us?”

At the same time, the other three people also discovered that powerful and abrupt aura.

“What should we do?” Disov was the first person who lost his composure. The terrifying injury on his shoulder finally healed, and there was now only a light red fist mark under his skin. With a scared yet crazy light in his eyes, he said, “Let’s charge out and attack him by surprise! The worst comes to worst, we can just retreat! Humph! We can at least destroy Chambord and crush his foundation!”

“No, we can’t!” Rakanic who had a headful of short white hair quickly stopped his reckless peer by saying, “First of all, we are no match for him. If we charge out like that, we will ruin our master’s plan. Even if we are successful in escaping, we couldn’t avoid the punishment, and it will be worse than death!”

“Then, what should we do? We can’t fight him, and we shouldn’t escape? What should we do? Just wait here and die?” Disov was anxious and angry.

The people in this secret room were powerful masters, and they had their own high-statuses and egos.

However, it seemed like the name ‘King Alexander’ was magical. It was able to make these powerful masters feel scared and shiver.

Even though the King of Chambord was mighty, what made them scared was his ruthlessness and the cold-bloodiness. If they were facing ordinary enemies, they didn’t need to worry. They were confident that their enemies would back off once they showed their identity. However, in the case of the King of Chambord...... Their peers who died in this young king’s hands couldn’t be counted with two hands.

At this moment, the person who discovered Fei’s aura first suddenly noticed something and relaxed. “Wait, he isn’t coming this way...... It feels like he is trying to find someone else......”

“Yeah, he isn’t coming this way anymore......”

“He is looking for someone or something......”

The four of them looked at each other and exhaled, and they all saw the cold sweat on each other’s forehead.

......

Fei went to the back garden of the church.

Since it was spring, greenness already appeared on the ground. New grasses grew out of the fertilized soil, and they were looking at this strange new world like curious babies. New green vines already climbed onto the walls of the stone house in the garden, and butterflies were flying around and dancing in the air freely.

Fei frowned; he sensed a dense cluster of wood elements that was several times more potent compared with the area outside the garden, and a liveliness filled this entire place. The air was warm and moist, great for all plants’ growth. It seemed like the spring arrived earlier in this garden compared with the other places in the world.

At this moment, a thin figure slowly walked out of the stone house with two maids helping him.

He was a handsome blond young man, and all his facial features looked like the gods carefully sculpted them. When people looked into his big and bright eyes, they would all feel intimate toward him. His face was quite pale, and he looked tired and ill. However, when these components were put together, they made him exceptionally beautiful.

This blond young man was the most handsome man Fei had ever met. Even though Crown Prince Girano of St. Germain who was very handsome, as well as Second Prince Dominguez of Zenit who was known as the No.1 Handsome Man in the empire, were exceptionally good looking, they were no match for this young man.

The two girls who were helping him to get around were all about 15 to 16 years of age, and they were gorgeous-looking and energetic. Their skins were smooth and white, looking like youth flowers.

They were both wearing tight-fit green outfits, and each had a huge battle bow on their waists. In their quivers, there were several long arrows that had white feather fletching. These weapons were in green as well, and it felt like they couldn’t live without this color.

“You are here.” This blond young man greeted with a smile on his face; it felt like he was welcoming an old friend that he hadn’t met in a long time.

“You know that I’m coming?” Fei flashed forward and instantly appeared in front of the stone house.

His swift movement instantly alarmed the two beautiful maids of this blond young man, and they quickly grasped onto their bows.

In just one second, the bows were fully pulled, and the arrows were loaded. Also, green lights were reflected off the feather fletching, and they shone around the three of them like fireflies.

Fei instantly sensed the sharp energy that was coming toward him.

“These two weak-looking girls are so powerful! Their archery skills are probably not inferior to the two archery masters of Chambord, Elena and Torres!” Fei estimated.

Even though Fei was a little surprised, he only lightly smiled.

This ill-looking blond young man whispered to these two girls using a beautiful, wind-like, and ear-pleasing language that Fei had never heard of before, and the two of them put down their weapons reluctantly. After they glanced at Fei, they turned around and went back into the stone house. However, Fei was able to sense that two pairs of beautiful yet cold eyes were still locked onto him, monitoring him nervously.

“You should have come earlier, no? I have been living here for a year. You discovered me a year ago, but you only came now. Now speaking of it, I should thank you for allowing me to stay here,” this blond young man said.

He looked so weak that it felt like he would be pushed onto the ground by a gust of wind, but he was calm and collected. Just by standing there quietly, he gave off a noble and natural upper-class sensation. Even though it didn’t look like he was in a good condition, he still looked majestic.

Fei’s eyes landed on this young man’s ears, and he was deeply shocked. However, he showed nothing on the surface, and he only lightly asked, “It was you who sneaked into the back mountain of Chambord at night and fought with me?”

“Yeah, it was me.”

“Eleven months ago, when the Imperial Knight Palace sent a troop of masters here, it was you who suddenly appeared and killed a Three-Star Warrior, saving the situation for Chambord?”

“Yeah, it was also me.”

“Therefore, it seems like we are friends, right?” Fei asked with a smile.

For some reason, Fei already categorized this blond young man who looked ill as a friend. His barbarian instinct was very sensitive, and he didn’t detect any hostility from this young man. Instead, he sensed a little intimacy from him.

“It would be great if I can become friends with the Chambord Kingdom.” The blond young man smiled and nodded. His voice sounded like the flowing of a clear river, crisp and casual.

“Since we are already friends, why don’t you introduce yourself?” Fei asked with a light and playful tone.

After the initial surprise, a bitter smile appeared on this blond young man’s face as he replied, “I didn’t expect the King of Chambord who is like a god in the minds of his people to be this cunning. Since you already saw through my identity, why do you want to hear me say it?”

Fei replied earnestly, “Even enough I’m 99% sure of it, I still want to hear it from a friend whom I trust rather than trusting my guesses.”

The blond young man was stunned, and a mystic light appeared in his eyes. He looked at Fei’s earnest expression seriously, and he nodded firmly after a while; it looked like he made a tough decision.

He smiled and said, “The King of Chambord is a great ruler after all. Although it is our first-time meeting, my instinct tells me that you are a trustworthy friend. Before I tell you my identity, I need to inform you that my background might bring your trouble. Are you sure you still want to know?”

“I’m not worried about trouble when trying to make a friend.”

“Hahaha! Great! Your Majesty, you are right. I’m......”

Just as this blond young man was about to reveal his identity, a female voice suddenly sounded from the stone house behind him. It was still in that mysterious, crisp, and chirping-like language, and it seemed like one of the maids was trying to stop this young man from continuing.
