Riding and Slashing

Ulrik was buried early in the morning.

The day was sunny and sunny.Under the blue sky and white clouds, the grassland with fresh dewdrops is waiting for a king's long sleep.

The funeral was brief, but very grand. Thousands of people attended the ceremony. Apart from the vast majority of people with status in Sarleon City, there were also many nobles who came from all over the place.

It is the duty of vassals to say a final farewell to the king who has been loyal to them.

Of course, more importantly, they have to come to swear allegiance to the new king in order to continue their legal aristocratic status.

Fortunately, the lakeside cemetery on the west side of Queen's Town is large enough - this is the cemetery of the Alfred family, where the Sarleon kings of all generations are buried.

"King Ulrik is buried here, a promising king who inherited both the great ancestor Wu Lie and the wisdom of the previous king."

This is the front of the tombstone. The epitaph written by Amy to Ulrik is all true.

Ulrik did have the bravery of his ancestor Alfred, and at the same time, he also inherited the 'wisdom' of his father, the Mad King.

Behind the tombstone is an inscription describing the cause of his death: "In the most dangerous battlefield, he faced the powerful enemy alone and fought unyieldingly until he died heroically. May the soul of the brave be no longer lonely."

Kouaris' voice became a little low, probably trying to comfort Althea, but what he said obviously had the opposite effect.

The little dragon waved its wings, and Ulrik's phantom gradually disappeared from the lake.

…………

"Couraris, you know, I can't cast spells like a god... I can only use your tears to summon those lonely souls like me."

"Althea, I'm sure you're really mistaken..."

But now, no one has jumped out and said anything against it.

Thanks to Ulric, the Sarleon Kingdom does not have an imperial council now, and Amy has no plans to reorganize the imperial council, so naturally no one will get in the way of these matters.

Until the end, a king in his fifties walked towards a beautiful woman in a white wedding dress in a simple wedding; at that time, he was smiling, and there was a little light in his eyes again, like some kind of hope.

But even so, his mouth was still talking, seemingly repeating one word over and over again.

At noon, under the witness of all the nobles and priests of the Goddess of Order, Amy Sonnard sat on the Silver Throne, put on the king's crown, and became the first queen of the Sarleon Kingdom.

Althea's voice became cold.

Xiaolong turned his head to talk, snorted and sprayed out a jet of water arrows.

The dragon's wings stuck into the water, and he lowered his head, causing waves in the lake, and Ulrik's phantom began to sway continuously.

As for who will be crowned, Alina's suggestion is: "Anyway, it is not in line with the tradition, so it is better to do it thoroughly. For people in the eastern region, the teacher is more representative of the goddess of order than those priests, and now the eastern region The region is a reliable base. In addition, Mettenheim and the Noldor elves are also supporters of the teacher-they do not believe in the goddess of order. Moreover, this can be tested to see if any noble If you are not convinced, let them come out earlier, so you can take precautions early."

"...I can't hold on any longer, Althea..."

She didn't change her surname - which was actually against the rules, and her inheritance came from her mother, who was supposed to be on the throne with her mother's surname, which was Alfred.

"Where did the Noldor blood in your body come from?"

The Silver Throne and the Tower of the House of Nobles are indeed the most dangerous battlefields.

"What a sad life... In his memory, he doesn't even have a single friend?"

Amy held a sword in her hand, and the blade rested on Li Ang's shoulder.

He heard an old voice again: "I see...haha, I see you, child."

In fact, this is the advice that Leon's new apprentice Alina gave Amy.

The big and gentle eyes of the little dragon Kuaris also became terrifying.

A handsome young man, at the funeral of another middle-aged man, faced accusations from many people, but kept his head held high; at that time, he faced everything with a sneer, but his eyes still had light.

"What happened to the three prophets? What is the race of the Noldor now?"

Li Ang could feel some kindness from this voice - the owner of this voice seemed to be expecting something.

"Perhaps, he also has the blood of Avadine, and I can understand his loneliness and sorrow... It's not surprising that he can get your tears, he is a king after all."

Althea asked the phantom on the lake.

The signature of the inscription is Leon Griffin.

But Amy didn't do that.

"I don't have the blood of the Noldor. I am Ulric, the king of the Land of Sarleon in Pendor! But I... I should be dead... I remember, I am dead."

An old and hoarse male voice faintly came from the torch.

He continued to look up at the reliefs on the dome.

A young man in a scarlet gown with a gold rim at the neckline stepped onto the Silver Throne hand in hand with a woman whose face could not be seen, and crowned with a golden lion; Only when he looked at his sister who looked similar to him under the steps, there would be a little warmth in his eyes.

The gorgeous coffin was placed in the pit, and Amy sprinkled the first shovel of earth on the grave with her own hands.

But perhaps, Leon wasn't the only one who understood Ulrik.

She scooped up a handful of water from the lake and brought it to Kouaris' mouth, and the water began to glow purple when it reached her hand.

A middle-aged man with a full head of brown hair is 'floating' on the lake, but this 'person' is constantly twisting and shaking with the fluctuation of the lake water. Obviously, this is a phantom projected from the lake water.

The last king to bear the surname of Alfred thus ended.

That phantom can finally speak at this moment.

"Don't talk nonsense! Answer the questions...or you will be out of your wits in no time!"

Kouaris leaned over with his big head, carefully sucked the handful of purple liquid from her hand, and then heaved a long sigh of relief: "Ha... maybe all the Noldor elves have this kind of disturbing power originally. The ability to heal with magical power... It's a pity that you learned it too late, otherwise the continent of Gwendarion would not have perished."

Sonnard is Amy's family name, but this family name does not come from her mother, Ms. Felina, but from Godric.

In the end, the image that appeared in the crystal ball was that the woman in the wedding dress had stabbed a table knife into his lower abdomen.

In another unknown place, on a small island thousands of miles away, a pure white dragon is staring at a huge crystal ball in the lake.

"Since they can accept a queen, they can naturally accept the queen using her own surname—anyway, no one dares to jump out to seek death now, and when the dust settles, no one will jump out to seek death .”

This time, the voice was still full of madness, but it was full of joy.

On the subject of surnames, Alina said so.

"No, it won't... Kouaris, don't say such things, the Avadine group must still exist..."

Then, the young man gradually reached middle age, riding a tall horse, wearing a golden armor, and holding a bleeding sword in his hand.Behind him is a group of knights holding lances. The knights have the golden three lions coat of arms on their bodies.At this time, his eyes were cold and full of ambition.

Perhaps, just like what Li Ang had experienced before, he couldn't move or speak.

A teenager with a long gun won his first battle with the help of his sister; at that time, his smile was full of pride in victory.

And in the temple behind the lake, a flickering candle appeared out of thin air—but only the candle, without a candle stick.

And the phantom on the lake seemed to be staring wide-eyed, looking at everything in the crystal ball in horror.

At this time, Li Ang was kneeling on one knee, looking up at the relief of King Kavala on the dome of the throne room.

"Dragon?! This is... a dragon?!"

"I, Amy Sonnard, under the witness of the gods and the kings, confer the title of duke on the knight Leon who swore allegiance. I will represent the kingdom to recognize your legally owned land, wealth and supreme honor! May you use it The sword in your hand protects the glory of the former king and our dignity!"

Scenes flickered in the crystal ball like a revolving lantern.

Li Ang also thinks Alina's opinion is fine. In fact, the logic in his eyes is simpler - whoever controls order is the spokesperson of the goddess of order.

There was no response, Ulrik's soul had just turned into a small flame, and he didn't have the ability to make a sound yet.

"Your Majesty, we should retrieve the sun and moon pendant for the goddess Eunomia; we should also help the former king Kavala retrieve his sword."

And this old voice laughed wildly and said to him: "Very good!"

But that hopeful look was just a flash, and then there was a female corpse in the garden, the corpse of her sister; at that moment, his face was ashen.

The picture in the crystal ball is reflected in the big royal blue eyes.

"This guy seems to be a king... But he is absolutely impossible to be your clansman... Heck... Althea, why do you recruit humans every time?"

Couaris warned.

After that, the middle-aged man gradually became old, and his expression became more and more indifferent. It seemed that he hadn't smiled since the moment he ascended the throne.

At the same time, it was not the priest of the Temple of Order who crowned her, but Li Ang himself.

If Li Ang was here, he would definitely be able to hear the voice calling Ulrik a 'boy', which he had heard in the throne room.

The picture in the crystal ball became more obvious.

Althea frowned.

The goddess Eunomia is on the left, and the former king Kavala is on the right.

"Anyway, he brought me good news...Let his soul go to that other King of Pandor, and maybe they won't be alone anymore."

This beautiful little dragon shook its head from side to side, lowered its long neck, and moved closer to the crystal ball.

The little white dragon Kouaris seems to be a very good friend. It stares at the phantom on the lake, and its blue eyes sparkle with a magnificent light: "Alsia, hurry up..."

Ulrik looked at Althea's long pointed ears: "Are you the god who protects the Noldor elves? But shouldn't gods be all-knowing and omnipotent?"

Kouaris shook his long neck, probably as a shake of his head: "Althea, at least you still have me as a friend... But why did he appear here? He can't see anything related to me in his memory. of the tears of the Noldor!"

Although Leon has never sat on the Silver Throne, at least he can understand all of Ulrik's actions, and he can also understand Ulrik's loneliness.

Therefore, Amy will be called Queen Sonade by outsiders from now on; and Li Ang will become the chief minister of the kingdom—the Grand Duke of Changhe Town.

At that time, he had just become a baron.

Althea sighed: "Maybe he knows what's going on with Avadine's group now. A king must know a lot of things, right?"

Again, it's all true.

Ulrik's soul didn't panic for too long, maybe people can become free and easy after death, the king said at this time without any burden: "Oh... I remembered, I took a medicine, that It was the potion given to me by the three prophetesses...that was said to be made from the blood of the nobles of the Noldor."

The flame appeared directly under a torch, which was probably the same type—a torch made of pure stone, without any combustible materials, but the torch was still burning.

"Give it a try, but it would take a lot of my mana—I'm not good at making human souls speak, and I can only last for a while."

Hearing that the Noldor elves were doing well, Althea showed a gentle smile: "Couraris, anger will disturb your magic power, you should be calm."

But the pendant on Eunomia's chest is now a lion's head; while the relief depicting the brave battle of the former king Kavala, there is no sword.

This is of course even more unruly...

Althea's voice was as gentle as water, but this time, there was obviously a bit of surprise: "I don't know why it's human every time... Those dragon tears were obviously taken away by Avadine."

As Amy's "junior sister", Alina provided many valuable suggestions for the ceremony these days, including these two things that bothered Amy the most.

"Boy, before you die, you let that witch escape? Do you love her so much?"

Perhaps, Leon is the one who knows King Ulrik best.

And no one would be dissatisfied - those who were dissatisfied would never come to Sarleon City.

So, Amy happily accepted Alina's suggestion.

"I don't want to speculate like this... But, just like the magic storm caused by the Sindari elves, anything can happen in this world, Althea..."

However, the little flame shook violently.

"Three witches, the messengers of Eredar, the goddess of darkness. As for the Noldor, they are in the forest east of Pendor. They should be doing well now—at least better than me."

A young child, being held by his father, sat on the armrest of the Silver Throne; at that time, his smile was innocent.

Althea walked over from the lake, put his arms around Kouaris' neck and stood next to the crystal ball, poured lake water and sprinkled it on the crystal ball.

Li Ang said to Amy: "Let everything have real order, the goddess of order and the former king will protect us invincible!"

This is in the Throne Hall, many people are watching, he can only call Amy His Majesty, although Amy is not used to it.

"Of course, I will let history and belief return to Sarleon City. And Fieldsway will be handed over to you, Li Ang... My Marshal, I hope you will return triumphantly as soon as possible."

Amy pursed her lips, and also called Li Ang by Marshal.

But what she originally wanted to say was actually "Li Ang, you have to be careful."
