Who taught him to restore the country like this

Chapter 161 Can this really lead to the restoration of a kingdom?
The person walking slowly towards the square was Isabella, who had been captured by the End Order a few days ago.

Although they didn't know why she was there, the sight of Isabella brought a renewed glimmer of hope to the despairing nobles.

"Your Highness Isabella, please save us!" they cried out.

Isabella's disruption of the End Order's sacrificial ritual, coupled with the End Order's attitude towards her, clearly indicates that Isabella is not aligned with the End Order.

"Noisy!"

A high priest coldly glanced at the two nobles in front of him who were crying for help.

Bang!Bang!
The bodies of the two nobles who cried for help exploded instantly.

The square immediately fell silent, and the remaining people were terrified.

The high priest snorted coldly, his gaze returning to Isabella.

"Calamity Witch, what brings you here?"

"Release them," Isabella said calmly.

"Hahaha..." The three high priests burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Calamity Witch, last time the angel released you because of our shared origins and your promise not to interfere in the war between my Order of the End and the Holy Unified Empire."

Are you going to break your promise now?

The three men spoke with an arrogant tone, looking at Isabella with sneers, completely disregarding her.

“You are the ones who have broken your promise,” Isabella rebuked. “Ron made an agreement with your angel that the Order of the End must not harm the residents of the three counties. Your current actions have violated that agreement!”

"Is there such an agreement?" The three exchanged a playful glance with teasing smiles and flippant expressions.

"Now that you mention it, I do remember that there was such an agreement."

“There was a little guy named Ron who came to the angels like a mangy dog, begging them to spare the people of these three counties, and even said he was willing to trade his soul for it.”

"In the end, the angel saw that his attitude was not bad, so he granted his request."

The three high priests mocked as they recounted the hardships Ron had endured in making his deal with the Order of the End.

Upon hearing this, the nobles and soldiers in the square showed complex and guilty expressions.

It turns out that Ron did this to protect the people of the three counties.

But they listened to the words of a villain and killed Ron.

"Since you remember the agreement, why did the End still invade the three counties? Is your angel a man of broken promises?" Isabella shouted.

"How dare you! How dare you disrespect the angel!" Upon hearing this, a high priest was about to teach Isabella a lesson.

However, he was stopped by the high priest beside him, who said logically, "It's impossible to say it like that. The angel is a man of his word."

"The agreement to spare the residents of the three counties was made by the angel and that boy named Ron. If he is still alive, the agreement will naturally be in effect."

“But now that the person who made the agreement is dead, the agreement is naturally invalid, and I don’t think that kid named Ron will want to protect the people who killed him anymore.”

"Yes, we took over three counties and killed those who harmed him. We were avenging him. You should be thanking us."

The three of them laughed and said in unison.

Isabella frowned.

When the nobles of Misian saw that Isabella remained silent, they all felt a chill.

Damn Archduke Michael!

Damn it, Aetherel!
Why kill Ron?
If Ron were still alive, they wouldn't be in this situation.
They cursed the two culprits who had killed Ron with venomous malice in their hearts.

"What will it take for you to definitely let them go?" Isabella asked in a deep voice.

"Don't waste your energy. This is a battle between us and the Holy Unified Empire. Our goal is not just the Misian State."

"If we are going to launch an attack on the Empire, we cannot leave any potential threat to the Empire in our rear."

“Before we came, the angel instructed us that those who followed Ron could be spared.”

The Order of the End has set a bottom line.

This reveals their firm stance that they will not show mercy to their enemies.

“You won’t kill anyone who follows Ron, right?” Isabella asked.

"Yes," the high priest replied calmly.

“Now that they are no longer subjects of the Empire, you have no reason to break the agreement and kill them, right?” Isabella continued to ask.

Upon hearing this, the three high priests frowned.

"That makes sense, but... whether they are citizens of the empire or not is not something you can decide with just a few words!"

The three stared warily and bewilderedly at Isabella, whose expression had become resolute.

Isabella walked through the crowd of End God cultists and Mithian nobles to the center of the square, and spoke in a solemn voice:

"I, Isabella, on behalf of the great Ron Rhine, hereby declare the Kingdom of Lach established."

"From this day forward, the lands of the three counties belong to the Kingdom of Lah, and the residents of the three counties will be subjects of the Kingdom of Lah, under its protection. Is there anyone who would disobey?"

Isabella's solemn and dignified voice traveled through the gray fog to the ears of everyone in the main city.

After a brief silence, responses came from all over the city.

"We are willing to follow His Majesty Ron!"

"We are willing to join the Kingdom of Lah."

Long live the Kingdom of Lah!

"Long live His Majesty Ron!"

One call and a hundred responses.

The sentiment that "the Empire has abandoned us" has been brewing in the three counties these days. In addition, Ron's deeds have been amplified and glorified among the people, so they respond without any psychological burden.

"Long live His Majesty Ron!"

In the square, a nobleman responded quietly.

Then a second and a third voice rang out.

The Order of the End did not stop them; in fact, the response grew louder and louder.

What kind of bullshit empire is this? You've abandoned us, so there's no need for us to be loyal to you anymore.

His Majesty Ron is truly good to us; joining the Kingdom of Lah was the right choice.

It was rare for the Mician nobles to reach a consensus.

The main reason is that if I don't do this, my life will be in danger.

"Does this prove that they are no longer subjects of the Empire?" Isabella asked the High Priest of the Order of the End.

"Interesting, really interesting, hahaha."

The high priest of the Order of the End, upon seeing this, burst into laughter.

Establishing a new kingdom on the three counties and having the residents of the three counties join the new kingdom is indeed the best way to divide them.

Whatever their reasons, their actions constitute treason.

Treason is a capital offense!

The Empire could not forgive them, and they could no longer serve the Empire.

"I'm very curious, making a dead man king? How long can this Kingdom of Lah last?"

The High Priest of the Order of the End asked with a smile.

Isabella stared at him coldly, offering no response.

"Release them and withdraw."

The High Priest of the Order of the End turned and left.

The group of End God followers followed and left.

"call……"

Seeing that the Order of the End was no longer making trouble, everyone in the square breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts finally at ease. "Peggy," Isabella called out to the crowd in the square.

"Your subordinate is here." A woman in military uniform stood up from the crowd kneeling at the edge of the square, her hands and feet bound by chains.

With a slight thought, Isabella caused the gray mist to corrode the chains on her hands and feet.

“Isabella… Your Highness.” Peggy approached Isabella respectfully.

She originally wanted to call him Your Highness, but remembering that they had severed ties with the Empire and that Ron was the true Emperor, she changed her address to "Sir".

“His Majesty Ron often speaks of you to me, saying you are a clever and capable person.” Isabella looked at her and said, “Now, on behalf of His Majesty Ron, I appoint you as the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Lah, in charge of all affairs of the Kingdom of Lah.”

Peggy felt an indescribable sense of guilt upon hearing Isabella's appointment.

"Your subordinate is extremely grateful for His Majesty Ron's appreciation, but I am unworthy of it. My initial approach to His Majesty Ron was..."

“No need to say more. What you did was out of necessity, not of your own volition. His Majesty Ron knows all about it,” Isabella interrupted Peggy.

Peggy's guilt did not lessen at all after hearing this; on the contrary, she felt even more distressed.

"Let bygones be bygones. What you need to do now is to manage the Kingdom of Lah well for His Majesty Ron."

Isabella's gaze swept over the people in the square, and the gray mist, following her gaze, released the restraints on the soldiers who had been brought here due to their strength.

"Yes!"

The soldiers, now freed from their restraints, answered in unison.

"Please give your orders, Lady Isabella!"

"Take them down!" Isabella looked at the nobles closest to the center of the square, who had just been freed from their restraints by the gray mist and were still feeling relieved.

Upon hearing the order, the soldiers immediately stepped forward and detained the nobles.

"Lady Isabella, what are you doing?"

"Killing His Majesty Ron was entirely Alfred's own idea; it had nothing to do with us."

"We swear to the gods that we submit to the Kingdom of Lah and are loyal to His Majesty Ron."

The nobles quickly shirked their responsibilities and pledged their loyalty.

Isabella remained unmoved.

After imprisoning all the nobles, Isabella began to restore order to the three counties, which were on the verge of collapse.

She appointed Peggy and a group of powerful people, along with those who had followed Ron to Hilchin, to govern the three counties.

And with overwhelming force, they suppressed those who refused to obey orders.

After the order in the three counties was largely restored, she led the imprisoned nobles to Gem Bay.

……

Let's go back to when Isabella announced the founding of the Kingdom of Lah.

Rishin Port.

As Cecilia was discussing with Aetherel a plan to capture Gem Bay, the Divine Record on her body suddenly trembled and flew into the air from the pocket at her waist.

Cecilia looked surprised.

It's a divine oracle!
At this moment, she experienced what it felt like to be part of the Glorious Vatican.

In less than a month, the divine record conveyed two divine pronouncements.

As she gazed upon the magnificent divine work, she wondered what message the God of Grace would convey next.
Previously, divine records only conveyed the start of the war between the divine kingdoms.

But now, it seems like there's more to convey.

Has the fourth war between the divine kingdoms ended?

Surely not? The fourth phase of the Divine Kingdom has only just begun; it can't possibly be over in less than a month, can it?
The Radiant Saintess remarked: "The little girl is still too young."

As someone who's been through it all, she has to say that this period of time, which is neither the beginning nor the end, undoubtedly conveys the divine message—the restoration of the kingdom!
As the divine book was opened, several lines of golden text appeared in the air.

"On December 4, 1815, Ron Rheinth, the last king of the Kingdom of Lach, declared the restoration of his kingdom in the Holy Union State of Misian, and pledged to rejoin the War of the Divine Kingdom!"

"???"

Cecilia was full of questions after reading it.

what?
Has the Kingdom of Lach been restored?

Isn't His Majesty in the Kingdom of God?

Where did he restore his country?
It was originally in the Misian State of the Holy Unified Empire.

That's utterly incomprehensible... what a load of rubbish!

Isn't this a nation that has vanished from God's kingdom?
Can this really restore a kingdom?
Is this right?
A series of questions filled Cecilia's mind.

Aetherel, who was standing nearby, also fell silent after seeing the contents of the oracle.

And such things are happening simultaneously outside of the Kingdom of God.

As the first kingdom to participate in two wars of divine kingdoms simultaneously, the Radiant Church and the Holy Grace Church both received divine decrees for the restoration of the Kingdom of Lach.

On the front lines of the Emerald Kingdom, the Radiant Saintess read the contents of the Divine Record without any emotional fluctuation.

Now, whenever the Divine Records make a sound at an inopportune time, there's no need to guess; it must mean that the Kingdom of Lach has been restored once again.

She has now become so accustomed to it that the divine pronouncements no longer seem as sacred to her as they once were.

Both the Radiant Bishop and the Holy Grace Bishop sighed helplessly upon receiving the divine decree.

It seems that nothing can stop the restoration of the Kingdom of Lach.

If this news gets out, it will likely cause quite a stir.

They were reluctant to spread the message, but it was their duty to deliver divine pronouncements to the world.

Soon, with the two major Vatican authorities simultaneously conveying the message, it spread throughout the world.

Upon hearing that the Kingdom of Lah had been restored in the Kingdom of God, most people's reaction was: Is this even possible?

What followed was questioning of the two main gods.

The gods orchestrated this whole affair to kill Ron within their own kingdom.

But now Ron is not only not dead, he has also restored his kingdom in God's Kingdom.

These two main gods aren't that great either, are they?

All that effort was for nothing.

Are you harming or helping someone?

The most furious were the participants in the Third and Fourth Divine Kingdom Wars.

Are you kidding me?
How do you re-establish a kingdom in God's kingdom?
Could I possibly run into God's kingdom and let him destroy it?
Countries began to question the fairness of the war between the divine kingdoms.

"That person is truly amazing!"

In the magical capital, Beta saw the news in the newspaper and was filled with admiration for that person's deeds.

"The Radiant God and the Holy Grace God have suffered setbacks twice, and now the divine authority of the three major papal courts is beginning to waver. This is greatly beneficial to our actions after the Uncrowned God," Beta said excitedly.

Originally, fighting against the gods was something distant and unattainable in their eyes.

But now, that great man has carved out a shortcut for them to the end.

With that great man leading the way, overthrowing the rule of the gods will no longer be a distant and unattainable thing, but something within reach.

"That person's wisdom far surpasses our imagination; even a god is far inferior to him!"

Alpha smiled, his expression filled with admiration and respect.

All of this must have been within that person's expectations.

"We also need to work hard; we can't hold that person back." Alpha's eyes grew even more determined.

"Ah."

Beta nodded seriously, and seeing the smile that hadn't been seen on Alpha's face for a long time, his worries subsided.
