Unspeakable bubbles

"Next, you will have to cross the Ubala Snow Mountain where snow monsters frequently appear, traverse the largest cannibal tribe—Dog Fang, walk through the eerie Dream Forest, and finally defeat the evil Black Dragon Lord to reach your destination."

"..."

"......"

"Your Highness, how did you overcome all these obstacles to get here?"

Beta was completely bewildered. He was just a newbie who hadn't even left the beginner village yet, so how could he have triggered such an outrageous hidden quest!

"Even Bubbles don't know."

The little girl scratched her head: "It seems the road home is full of dangers. Bubble should go back by herself."

"Uh, Your Highness, how can you manage alone!"

After calming down, Beta decided to give it a try.

This task sounds incredibly difficult at first glance; a mere apprentice knight couldn't possibly complete it, but...

He's a gamer, you know! Gamers level up by fighting monsters!

If a Level 1 Apprentice Knight isn't enough, then they should work harder at grinding monsters. There are so many dangerous areas the two of them need to traverse; there should be enough monsters for them.

He fought his way through monsters and leveled up to LV.99, but he still couldn't believe it!

"I am a knight, and I will not break my promise."

Beta said with a determined look, "I am still very weak now, but I will grow stronger along the way!"

"Good, that's ambitious!"

The village chief seemed to be moved by Beta's unwavering courage, and he quickly took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

"Apprentice Knight Beta, if you can complete all the tasks on this note within a week, perhaps..."

"Ding-dong, quest triggered - The Village Chief's Affirmation".

"Complete all tasks within a week and prove your potential!"

"Your Highness, please wait for me for a week."

Beta solemnly accepted the note from the village chief. He confidently declared, "I won't let you down."

.................................................. ................

"Annie, what time is it?"

"11:27 AM, Master, there are thirteen minutes left until your originally set logout time."

"Well, because Beta went to do a quest, Bubble wandered around the village for a bit and then logged off early."

The little girl said enthusiastically, "Bubble will be starting his big adventure in the game in a week, so let's hurry up and finish dealing with things on our territory."

"Master, please have your meal first. The investiture ceremony for the esteemed officials will be held later."

"Oh"

After the civil war, Isabelle needs to appease the nobles who supported her by offering them sufficient benefits.

Similarly, the rewards due to the Yugren should not be lacking.

"Carmen, you have made great contributions by establishing the Golden Trade Route and leading the Southern Army to victory."

"Alright, I'll grant you a viscountry. From now on, you are the hereditary viscount Carmen!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

In front of Black Castle, Carmen knelt on one knee in accordance with Saien's tradition and respectfully accepted the certificate of territorial ownership from the little girl.

"Krov, you have worked diligently all these years. You have made great contributions to the development of Yugoslavia into what it is today."

"From this day forward, you are the hereditary Viscount Krov!"

"Mr. Duke!"

Krov was so excited that his face turned red. This was the title of Viscount of the Kingdom of Sain, a title far more prestigious than those of smaller countries.

"Qianbian, you have been quietly contributing to the territory, so it is only right that you be granted a hereditary baronship."

"Commander-in-Chief..."

Qianbian's feelings were complicated. How could an assassin like her be a member of the Sien nobility?

"Shura, although you didn't come to Yogtis with Bubble at the beginning, your contribution in overseeing the Viper headquarters was significant. Plus, your support during this war was invaluable... Keep up the good work, Baron Shura!"

"Your subordinate is ashamed to accept such an honor!"

"bone......"

The young girl bestowed rewards one by one, and for a time, the area in front of the Black Castle was filled with joy.

Section 699, Chapter 698: Reassurance

The end of the civil war in Sein was not peaceful. In less than a month, two more sensational events occurred in the kingdom!

Duke Salem of the Mormedi family passed away, and Cecil Mormedi inherited the title of Duke, officially succeeding his grandfather.

After the death of the oldest duke, people were surprised to find that most of the highest-ranking people in the kingdom were now young.

Aside from Duke William and Duke Hayway, both in their forties, the remaining Duke Cecil, Duke Andy, and even Queen Isabella are all in their early twenties!

The most outrageous was that the Duke of Yog was not even ten years old.

Some people are happy about this situation, while others are worried.

Some people think that young people act impulsively and don't think things through thoroughly, and that having too many young people among the kingdom's top nobles is not a good thing.

Some people think the opposite; they believe that only young people can revitalize this ancient kingdom, and that these young people are the hope for the kingdom's future!

The first major news was the death of the Duke of Salen, and the second major news was the Duke of Yog's bestowal of titles.

To be honest, the Duke's bestowal of this honor truly astonished the nobles of the kingdom.

There's no problem with making Carmen and Krove viscounts; after all, they deserve it based on their merits.

But......

Qianbian and Shura, who do the dirty work, were also granted hereditary baronies?

In the history of the Kingdom of Sein, there has never been a precedent of a killer being granted a noble title!

................................................................

Look at the successive heads of the Seventh Agency. They served the royal family their whole lives, but which one of them ended up becoming a noble?

Let alone nobles, very few of them even died peacefully.

Of course, this cannot be said to be that the royal family was harsh, after all, the nobles of Sein generally held these people in contempt.

Use it and then throw it away; that's pretty much it.

"You're someone who does dirty work, you should be grateful for being given a chance to eat."

"Why give a gold coin when a silver coin can solve this? I have so much money I don't know what to do with it."

Beyond the apparent contempt, there are deeper reasons.

These lawless people are nothing but rootless duckweed.

If they were granted fiefdoms, and some assassin families were to emerge in the future, it would be the nobles of Sen who would suffer the consequences.

Nobody wants their subordinates to become too powerful. Even if they don't think about themselves, they should at least think about their descendants, right?

The Duke of Yog's letter immediately caused an uproar among the nobles.

How could you not understand the rules?

Your letter has completely disrupted everyone's understanding.

If it weren't for the Duke of Yog's extraordinary status and unparalleled strength in all aspects, he would have been a different person.

Perhaps, the nobles will rise up and attack them.

Not daring to openly oppose the Duke, the nobles could only complain in private.

"Alas, Your Grace has been somewhat inconsiderate this time."

"Even if they are two super strong individuals, an assassin is still an assassin. We can't overfeed them."

The southern nobles were relatively restrained; they dared not say anything too outrageous.

The capital city, on the other hand, launched a fierce attack.

.......................................................................

"Nouveau riche are nouveau riche! How could they let an assassin be treated like an aristocrat? It's outrageous!"

Isabel sneered, "Two super strong individuals? Heh, this is bound to develop into an assassin family."

"She sowed the seeds of disaster without realizing it. Sure enough, this little girl has become reckless once she has a higher status."

"Whoo~"

After the barrage of criticism, Isabel felt much better.

"Teacher, how is the palace being prepared?"

"It will take at least another two months."

"So long?"

"This amount of time is necessary to ensure the desired effect."

The astrologer looked at Isabel, his feelings somewhat complicated.

She had repeatedly tried to create an air of mystery within the palace to ensure the 'absolute safety' of every member of the royal family.

But the Lionheart King always refused, saying that "with the royal family protecting him, this is unnecessary."

Well, I actually took the astrologer seriously the first time.

After being rejected a second time, this unfathomable and powerful man realized that His Majesty did not truly trust him as absolutely as he appeared.

What was blocked by the Lionheart was easily accomplished by his daughter.
