Chapter 568: Conferring Sainthood (Please Subscribe)
As it turns out, the truth is the truth. Knowing the truth, no matter how bad the situation or how much pressure you are under, life still goes on.

Because of the battle in the demiplane, the Flower Territory gathered too many important figures, either princes of this country or political officials of that country, all of whom were of extraordinary status.

Even the Habsburg Empire sent a prince, though not the newly appointed crown prince, but one of Hohenzollern III's most valued sons.

In terms of status and position, he was qualified. Of course, the one who actually communicated and negotiated was the Imperial Ambassador, Lord Robin Water.

Some people wanted to take the credit, but Luo Yi's power is truly different now. With just a few words, he made the Imperial Cabinet give up.

Lord Robin's status in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs rose dramatically, and he is now the first diplomat of the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It can be said that he and his associates have benefited immensely from this promotion.

With so many dignitaries from various countries in attendance, a banquet was naturally to be held, and it had to be a grand one.

As it happens, since they occupied a demiplane, the Imperial Guards also had to be rewarded for their contributions.

Loy expanded the scope of the banquet further, encompassing the entire city of Brussels, and held a grand victory celebration.

Everything is a process of continuous improvement. Today, not only is Butler Hoover adept at handling such banquets, but he has also cultivated a group of capable male and female servants.

So, in just three days, everything was ready.

On that day, the three mage towers shot out huge beams of magic, dispelling the dark clouds and letting the sunlight shine throughout the city.

Under the crystalline radiance, ever-changing light and shadow are projected onto every part of the sky; as long as you look up, you can see that enormous curtain of light.

The images shown above depict various scenes from the battle in the demiplane.

This was specially recorded by Luo Yi; hundreds of photo stones accumulated a wealth of material, offering different perspectives.

Even when the logistics department was cleaning up the battlefield, they found one or two undamaged bullets in the ruins.

Although the angle limited the footage, it perfectly captured the final sword strike that killed the vampire prince.
And, scenes of numerous dark legends besieging demigods.

All of these were compiled and made into a documentary, which was played right there in the sky.

Although it's a story that cuts out the beginning and end, it still presents the complete picture of this battle.

At this moment, the broadcast from the sky attracted the attention of almost the entire city, just like watching a blockbuster movie.

I would look up for hours on end, not even daring to blink.

Luo Yi never expected that the best-selling product in the flower shop that day would actually be the recliner.

A reclining chair made of woven bamboo can best protect your neck while ensuring a pleasant viewing experience.

And after today, the specially made "repeatable photo stone" from Flower Lane has also become a best-selling product.

This even gave birth to the prototype of the film industry and incubated a thriving cultural market.

Coincidentally, after Luo Yi moved some of his high-tech manufacturing industries into the demiplane, several vacant lots and industrial zones were freed up.

It was also covered by the emerging film industry, which in turn created a huge demand for manpower.

This was an unexpected stroke of luck; Luo Yi immediately made plans and provided financial and talent support.
Thus, the new Brussels film studio was born!

The editor of this first full-length film was Ms. Palacios.

Although she wasn't involved in the film industry, later scholars still bestowed upon her the title of "father of cinema," which is a way for her to be remembered in history in a way that made her both laugh and cry.

Of course, all of the above is a story for another time.

That very evening, after the documentary ended, the melodious voice of the Siren Girl echoed throughout the city.

Furthermore, clusters of bonfires burned, their flames illuminating half the sky.

Under the control of magic, the wine transformed into a trickle that flowed through the air, creating a truly bizarre sight.

Simply lift the glass, and you can scoop the drink from mid-air.

As for the food lining both sides of the street, the fragrant aroma permeates the air, making one's mouth water just by smelling it.

Of course, none of these are anything special, and the cost is actually not that high. The place that truly attracts everyone's attention is Lion Manor.

This manor, which was once merely a villa of the Raymond family, has become an undisputed center of power after Roy ascended to the title of Earl.

The most luxurious ball is held here amidst melodious music.

Every guest was elegant and poised, and their female companions flaunted their beautiful figures and exquisite faces.

If you walk a few steps forward, you might see a prince from one country; turning around, you might bump into a high-ranking official from another.

He could casually answer questions about astronomy, geography, and international affairs, demonstrating not only extensive knowledge but also a pleasant speaking style.

In that corner, there are also those who are taciturn and not good at socializing, but those are even more people you must not offend.

Because it was either a group of fourth-tier calamity experts or legendary experts having a conversation.

Luo Yi's invitation now carries considerable weight, so of the Dark Legends who were on the verge of conflict not long ago, several of their most influential figures have now arrived.

Ghost Rider Jonathan Blaze, the Underworld Sword Saint Albus Rivers, and the legendary warrior Nidhogg Hayes, the tough guy who swung an anchor at people.
Beside them were, without a doubt, the Karen couple.

Their arrival, though seemingly out of place, truly elevated the atmosphere of the banquet.

Even those self-proclaimed nobles have to bow their heads in the face of legends.

Even if you're mortal enemies, you have to learn to treat each other with a warm and welcoming demeanor at this banquet.

Of course, this group of people were still somewhat distracted, as if they always felt that something was missing.
Yes, so far since the banquet began, the most you've seen is Butler Hoover greeting guests, and Countess Lilia carrying flowers and leading the undisputed first in line to the throne, Klein Raymond, to greet the guests.

However, the true owner of this place, Loy Raymond, did not show up.

This gave many people room for imagination. Of course, they dared not do anything, but their restless thoughts were inevitable.

This wild speculation continued until the bell tolled nine times, and after the powerful sound waves swept away all the noise, a dazzling light exploded in mid-air.

Holy light poured down like a stream, flooding the entire city.

Countless people were bathed in the holy light, feeling their fatigue disappear, their injuries healed, and even the occupational diseases left over from their work were gradually corrected.

Such a large-scale healing technique is comparable to a true divine blessing.

Amidst the pouring holy light, the roars of dragons could be heard.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The ancient red dragon's roar, carrying a chilling majesty, and the sound of its flapping wings approached from afar, arriving in an instant.

Everyone saw it; they saw a gigantic ancient red dragon roar past.

His enormous wings spread wide, casting a shadow that seemed to blot out the sky.

With each flap of its wings, a gust of wind howls past.

He unleashed a fan-shaped burst of dragon breath, which circled along the edge of the city before exploding outwards, creating a spectacular scene of a sea of ​​fire.

Above the ancient red dragon's head, Luo Yi stood proudly, upright as a pine tree, immovable as a mountain, like a king.

The ancient Red Dragon Knight is far more prestigious than the Green Dragon Knight Quentin Perkins.

Not to mention that the green dragon's combat power is inferior to that of a red dragon of the same level, let alone the ancient red dragon Virgil Beri.

Just look at Luo Yi's record: killing legends, slaughtering demigods, each and every one of them is dazzling.

Everyone present knew that Luo Yi had become an ancient red dragon knight, but knowing it was one thing, it was only when they actually saw it and felt the fear of facing such a colossal creature that they truly realized the value of this identity.

After frolicking for more than ten minutes, as if it had had enough, the ancient red dragon finally descended from the sky.

With a sudden crash, it struck the square of Lion Manor, causing the earth to tremble and eliciting gasps of alarm.

However, Luo Yi did not come down from the top of the red dragon's head, but instead raised her head slightly and looked up at the sky.

And so, amidst the holy light and sea of ​​fire, His Holiness Saint John Stuart, draped in a crimson robe and holding the papal staff, strolled up the staircase of holy light.

All around him, amidst the dazzling holy light, countless phantom images of angels appeared, some scattering flowers, some playing music, some singing hymns, and some dancing...

This is no illusion, but a genuine divine descent, a temporary opening of a passage, an overlap between the prime material plane and the divine realm.

At that moment, everyone below seemed to sense something, their pupils dilated, and their expressions were shocked.

This set of rituals is not something that can be used arbitrarily. In the strictly hierarchical Church of the Sun, only major events such as the change of pope or the abdication of a cardinal are eligible for this honor.

In fact, it takes many days to prepare for this, and the materials used in the prayer ceremony are an astonishing amount.

But now, in the Flower Territory, thousands of miles away, the use of this term in the territory of a count who is not particularly devout has an incredibly profound meaning.

However, before they could think further, Saint-Jon arrived in front of Loy.

Without saying a word, he took a beautiful crimson robe from the clergy behind him and draped it over Luo Yi's shoulders.

Then there was a golden badge engraved with an ancient red dragon, pinned to Loy's chest.

Finally, a crown radiating brilliant holy light was placed on Loy's head.

Only then did Saint Yorn speak: "In the name of God, I bestow upon you the title of 'Holy Dragon Knight,' hoping that you will prioritize Herka and protect this world."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent!

Because this is a 'canonization' ceremony held in the name of God.
At this point, even the ancient Templar Knights could not overshadow Loy's brilliance; 'Holy Dragon Knight' is Loy's current title.

At this point, although Loy was still a count, when introducing himself, he was now known as the Godslayer, the Legendary Slayer, the Successor of Holy Techniques, the Holy Dragon Knight, Saint Loy Raymond.

At this point, the Raymond family had become a true saintly family, ranking among the top ten in the Old World.

At this moment, all the dignitaries, princes, and even legends from various countries, watching Saint John Stuart leave the stage, could only sigh in their hearts: What a grand gesture!
