Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 880 The Attack Still Came

Outside the open gates stood members of the royal family and sons of high-ranking nobles.

Milian and Seven each led a team of Tiger Blade members and stood in their ranks.

Even if Leon was unwilling, he couldn't let Miriam, whom he had raised, stand in front of these people.

He didn't insist much, after all, Milian couldn't possibly be his successor.

There, normally only Leon's biological children can stand; even his wife cannot.

Leon was able to do so much before because Travis also caused a lot of trouble when he inherited the throne.

Although he didn't go as far as Leon, he changed every step a little.

Only by taking a step further can Leon withstand the unspoken pressure... Those who feel guilty and urgently need to improve Leon's relationship with the royal family will inevitably take a step back first.

But when it comes to the throne, the old guys will never compromise.

The guards along the red carpet were still composed of the royal guard.

This may be the last time some of them stand here.

It wasn't that Leon had any complaints about them.

Instead, many of these people chose to follow Travis and leave the Northern Kingdom with him.

They weren't those noble children who came to gain prestige... Those were also called the King's Guard, but in reality, they were all deputy captains.

At least two-thirds of them will never make it into the main team in their entire lives.

Even if Leon takes over, he will definitely only make the knights from his Tiger Blade the backbone of the main team, and it would be good if he could draw a small number from the vice-captains to supplement them.

No one would, and no one would dare, point fingers at the king's personal guards.

Every word they utter is treason.

Leon, standing on the red carpet, seemed to have a hint of regret.

If Miriam could stand in his son's place, his life would be even more fulfilling today.

He couldn't help but look around, a hint of resentment showing on his face.
-
Standing in the crowd, Milian felt Seven's gaze directed at her from the other side and almost took another step back.

He is now truly grateful that he didn't get dragged into Rosalind's trap.

if not……

No, he's overthinking it.

Leon may be a bit crazy, but he wouldn't be crazy to this extent.

Even if he didn't care about the resentment of so many people in the Northern royal family, he still had to consider whether Miriam could afford to gamble with his life!
Yuri ignored the undercurrents ahead and kept his eyes fixed on the sky.

As the sun broke through the clouds and the first rays of light shone on the spire of the royal palace church, Yuri raised his fingers in the air and gently waved them, and a hymn praising the Lord of Storms began to rise.

As Leon stood at the front of the red carpet, the sash draped over his body began to sway gently.

A gentle breeze silently blew around him.

Then, the music quickly transformed into a gentle spring breeze, even taking on a faint blue hue.

As the hymn reached its climax, the wind grew stronger and stronger... eventually forming a small whirlwind that swirled and landed on Leon.

Leon, who was only wearing royal robes and a sash, now had a long, dark blue cloak.

His pure white suit had turned into a lighter grayish-blue.

This means that Leon not only gained the Storm Lord's recognition, but also his favor.

His right to the throne faced no obstacles from the gods.

A smile appeared on Leon's face as he gave a deep knightly salute to the empty space ahead... Even though he was about to become the King of the North, before the Lord of Storms, he was still just the Lord's knight, and would always stand before the Lord of Storms to wield his sword.

Although the kings of the North throughout history were fickle in their minds, none of them ever went against this principle.

Weakening the Storm Nobles is not the same thing.

Even Travis never disobeyed the will of the Lord of Storms.

However, the succession ceremony of the King of the North would never be held in the Storm Cathedral, where a chief priest is located.

The Lord of Storms has never denied their approach, right?
Leon looked at his blue sleeves and suddenly felt extremely happy.

I wonder if the Lord of Storms had a drink today; he's incredibly generous.

Generally speaking, it would be quite nice if the king's robes were dyed a light yellow, which represents Japanese style.

Most kings at this stage are only a pale blue with a hint of white... the symbolic color of a gentle breeze.

His Majesty Travis received the blessing of the breeze.

However, his reasoning is understandable.

After all, it's likely that even the Lord of Storms was reluctantly doing something like this, having to hold his nose and wish him well, to bless a new king who was leading a white dragon on his path to becoming king.

But even in the country where the Storm God Temple is located, the most devout kings can only receive the blessing of the wind at most!
The wind brings blessings... Although Leon is very confident, he doesn't really think he's qualified.

Having been an adventurer, he did many things that went against the doctrines back then.

Therefore, Leon truly believed that he was incredibly lucky to have happened to be in the Lord of Storms' good mood, giving out blessings.

Doesn't this prove that he will definitely have a smooth journey today?

As the "March of the First King of the North" played again, Leon walked enthusiastically to the rhythm of the music as he walked down the red carpet.

Ahead of the red carpet lies the tallest palace in the royal palace... the Palace of Winds.

In a kingdom that worships the Lord of Storms, any palace named after the wind carries profound significance.

These are basically the largest council halls in the royal palace, the center of power.

The same applies to the Wind Palace of the Northern Kingdom.

This palace, which is 50 meters long, 17.1 meters wide, and 13.9 meters high, has 16 opposing arched windows. On one side of the windows is a garden, and on the other side is a small square.

Normally, only these arches are opened, and not all of them.

Only on occasions like today will the main gate at the very front be opened.

Leon walked step by step down the red carpet... Two giant bronze doors in front of him were slowly sliding open to the sides.

As he walked forward, people on both sides bowed their heads in layers.

Leon felt as if he was about to stand on the top of the world.

Unfortunately... it was destined that he wouldn't be able to hear the end of this march that was only sung during the royal succession ceremony!
Leon raised his head and snorted coldly.

A giant shield rose directly in front of him.

‘Bang! ’

A scorching pillar of fire struck his shield cleanly.

"Ahhh!"

"Enemy attack!"

The people on both sides of the red carpet instantly fell into panic.

Yuri, who had been standing still, extended his right hand and waved it slightly.

The people who were shouting and yelling indiscriminately were immediately separated and protected by the light curtain that rose from the ground.

There were rows of small square grids that cleverly divided the spectators into groups of less than 10 people each.

The Tiger Blade Knights quietly occupied those intersecting squares... enough to see the movements in all directions.

Regardless of whether there are other troublemakers among them, the knights of the Tiger Blade will see them before they make a move.

The members of the adventure team may not be that strong, but they definitely have a wealth of combat experience.

Especially when dealing with those sneaky guys.

Milian smiled and looked at the old man next door who had been snorting at him: "If you want to get out, I can help you out."

Rest assured, His Majesty the King will not be angry about this, nor will either of you.

The old mage, dressed in a beautiful purple robe and with his long white beard neatly tied back with a purple ribbon, gave him a gloomy look.

But her feet seemed to have their own will, and she took a few steps back.

Milian couldn't help but tilt her head: "So, you're backing out at the last minute?"

Not so good?

The brothers are still waiting for you to dominate the battlefield...

"Roar!"

His joking was interrupted by a deafening dragon roar.

A huge white dragon poked its head out from above the white clouds.

"Luscania? What's that?" Milian patted the light membrane in front of her in surprise. "Wow, you guys can block Luscania now!"

Why are you backing away?

What is that thing?!

"A magic ship," the old mage replied, seemingly lost in thought.

"Huh?" Milian asked with some skepticism, "This kind of thing can be called a boat?"

The strange-looking thing blocking Ms. Bailong's way did indeed resemble the bottom of a sailboat at its base.

But there are two rows of wheels underneath!
There was even a huge single wheel at the bow of the ship.

Above the ship, there was a bunch of crooked houses.

Milian didn't think it was a building.

After all, each little house has its own unique appearance; they're just stacked together, and they all seem to have quite a bit of self-expression.

"It can also be considered a kind of fortress for coexistence," the old mage added.

Okay...okay my ass!

He simply can't understand!
Milian felt that all her previous efforts in learning about magic had been completely shattered in front of this wrecked ship.

If this thing can be used as a star fortress, then they...

What's Al-Saran called? The Royal Palace?
"Ha~ Is that all you've got?" Leon's loud taunt on the red carpet broke the unspoken tension among the crowd.

Soon, the nobles and princes of the North who had not been involved in these messy affairs quickly knelt down carefully along the edge of the light shield.

Of course, even the women used one hand to support themselves on the ground, ensuring they could get up and run away at any time.

After all, this is a kingdom of knights where the war is less than a hundred years old, and everyone knows what they should do.

Although some people also chose to kneel down, they had something to hide, so they weren't as quick as they could have.

Given Tiger Blade's reaction speed, these people must have all been recorded.

Most importantly, in this place, members of the Tiger Blade can openly carry their own weapons, while others cannot.

Although the palace's magic circle had opened a gap to receive the blessing of the Lord of Storms, the spears held by the guards on both sides of the red carpet could work together with the magic circle on the red carpet to activate a dimensional space sealing magic circle.

Within 100 meters of the red carpet, spatial equipment and spatial jumps are not allowed.

However, a hundred meters away, they were still under the suppression of the royal palace's magic array.

Yuri remained standing motionless in front of the palace because he could directly control the palace's magic array from there.
