Chapter 62: Judgment (II)

Anthony looked at the oncoming team, with a kind look on his face, and waved.

"Come here, child, let me take a good look at you."

"Your Majesty Bishop."

Noah nodded slightly and walked in front of Anthony.

Anthony looked at the girl in front of him carefully, with a look of nostalgia in his eyes. "Although this is the first time we meet, I can see that you have some of your father's shadow. He was a very good king and an old friend whom I still miss."

"Can you answer me, will you carry on his legacy and lead all the people of Levis to make this country more beautiful and glorious?"

Anthony's voice was gentle, but his words themselves carried a great deal of pressure.

Facing the pressure of the country's fate, Noah took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, there was only a firm look in his eyes and cheeks. "This is what I should do."

Anthony was very satisfied with the girl's reaction and reached out to the side.

Several accompanying clergymen handed over the holy scriptures with understanding and prepared for the other steps of baptism.

At the same time, the army below the White Court of Aarons also restored order, and the originally noisy square gradually became quiet like a surging tide.

Only Anthony's voice, which was blessed by magic and slowly emerged, was left, reciting the obscure words in the scriptures, which sounded solemn and holy under the harmony of the church choir.

"...Noah Brenner, are you willing to become the heir to the royal family of Levis, care for and protect every citizen of Levis, give them a beautiful and happy life, and lead the entire country to glory?"

Noah raised his head, his eyes shining brightly.

"I am willing!"

Anthony smiled and nodded, then sprinkled olive leaves soaked in holy water on Noah's head. After baptizing and blessing him according to the procedure, two priests came and put on a golden-red royal robe for Noah.

Last but not least, Anthony picked up the crown that symbolized his noble status, solemnly placed it on Noah’s head under everyone’s attention, and handed the scepter that symbolized power to the other party.

At this point, the new king of Levis finally ascended the throne.

Noah raised his head, and with the encouragement of Anthony's eyes, he walked to the coronation platform and spoke loudly to the tens of thousands of people below the White Court of Aarons, and even to all the people of Levis further away.

"I, Noa Brenner, hereby declare that I will officially take the throne as the Queen of the Kingdom of Levis."

"I swear here that I will care for and protect every citizen of Levis, respect them and give them a beautiful and happy life. I will implement justice and law and will never tolerate sin. I will do my best to lead the entire country to glory!"

The answer to Anthony was an oath to God, and now the oath was to all the people of Levis. This firm voice sounded above the White Court of Arons and also resounded throughout the Victory Square.

Although immature, the emotions contained in it are like a stone thrown into calm water, stirring up ripples in the hearts of countless people below.

The quiet square suddenly erupted into warm cheers like a tsunami.

"Long live Her Majesty the Queen!"

"The Queen! The Queen!"

These voices were all responses to Noah's oath, and were also filled with their passionate emotions. The music, salutes and fireworks that were played again brought the atmosphere to a climax.

Noah looked at the cheering crowd below, an unknown emotion stirring in her heart, causing tears to form in the corners of her eyes, but she quickly calmed down and followed Anthony back to the palace.

Officials from Levis offered their blessings here.

Enros looked at Noa, who was wearing a royal robe, a crown, and a scepter, and whose aura of a queen was beginning to emerge, and he was quite pleased. "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

"Uncle Enros, thank you for your help so far." Noah smiled.

“This is what I should do.”

Auston's expression was uncertain, but he finally restrained his emotions, walked forward and smiled and blessed, "Noah, congratulations, I have arranged a banquet tonight, and you should have a good rest next."

"No, it's not over yet. I think we should settle the accounts between us, Prince Austin."

Noah turned around, looked at Auston and spoke slowly.

Especially the last sentence, which was almost uttered word by word.

"Ahem, why don't I understand what you are saying, Noah?"

Austin's heart skipped a beat, but he still felt relieved and pretended to be confused.

Most people in the palace didn't understand what was happening and looked at each other.

Bishop Anthony was equally puzzled and tried to persuade him, "Your Majesty, is there any misunderstanding between you and the prince?"

"No, Bishop Anthony. The attack on the two empires' delegations in the Ocean Stone Mansion and the assassination of the princess who was about to succeed the throne at the coronation ceremony are not something that can be explained by ordinary misunderstandings."

Noah shook his head.

The amount of information contained in these words was so huge that it shocked almost everyone.

Austin's face darkened and he clenched his hands. "Noah, there are some things you can't say carelessly. You are now representing the identity and face of the entire Levis Kingdom."

"Yes, Your Majesty, please be careful with your words."

"Everything must be based on evidence, Your Majesty, and you must not speak nonsense."

The voices of many ministers in the palace also rang out, all of them were members of the Austin faction.

"Evidence, I have plenty of evidence."

Noah's expression did not change at all.

As she finished her words, a tall and straight young officer walked out from among the many officials.

"Bayard?" Austin recognized the identity of the young officer at a glance, his face gloomy, "Do you know what you are doing?"

"Your Excellency, you don't have to threaten me with those means. Since I dare to stand here, I have no fear."

Bayard took his time, facing the many eyes around him, taking out the information from the adjutant and handing it to Bishop Anthony, "Your Excellency, these are the information I collected."

"Regarding the attack, the delegations from both sides of the Empire can also provide evidence as they were involved."

"Yes, your Excellency, we can all prove it."

Louis and Hall looked at each other and walked out at the same time with several members of the delegation.

"Your Excellency the Bishop, the East City District has basically stabilized, but the commotion inside cannot be explained by ordinary riots. At least thousands of people are involved in armed fights, and there is evidence that the chaos was caused by an organized and disciplined attack on the princess."

Ron separated the officials on both sides, walked to Bishop Anthony, and also stood next to Noah.

The position is obvious.

Chapter 63: Finale

The truth about the attack on Heshvia City twelve years ago exploded in the palace like a depth charge.

This was the personal account of the person involved, and coupled with the almost irrefutable evidence produced by the other party, the facts were clearly stated. The mastermind behind the attack was Austin, who teamed up with Morfa and other people to usurp the throne.

Many ministers in the palace showed unimaginable expressions.

Even the officials of Austin's faction changed their expressions after hearing the truth, and immediately moved away from Austin. After all, the reason they stood on the side of the prince was mainly because of his status and power. Now that the truth was exposed, if they still couldn't tell the difference, they would be treated as accomplices.

The once glorious prince now seemed to be deserted by his friends and relatives.

"Is it worth it? You can't escape this!"

Auston looked at Morfa.

"Why not, my dear old fellow? Who do you think is responsible for this situation?"

Morfa curled the corners of his mouth.

It looked like a greeting between old friends, if you could ignore the last sentence, which was almost bitten and spat out word by word, like a crazy and hoarse ghost crawling out of hell, "When you imprisoned me in that dark place with your own hands, I said that one day I would stand in front of you like this and destroy everything you have before your eyes."

The bone-chilling coldness chilled most of the people present.

Noah, however, was not affected at all. He looked at the two people with indifference from beginning to end, as if he was watching two dirty wild dogs biting each other.

"My Lord Bishop, what do you think?"

Reminded by Noah's voice, Bishop Anthony gradually reacted to the shocking news, but it was obvious that he was not calm, with a complex look of anger and sadness in his eyes.

"You murdered your brother for the throne, murdered the king, and even attacked the princess who was about to succeed to the throne. Austin, do you still have the law in your eyes, and the country of Levis?"

"The throne belongs to the victor. What's the point of talking about the winner and the loser?"

Auston sneered.

Seeing that the other party showed no sign of remorse, Bishop Anthony could not help but get angry and waved the white jade scepter in his hand, "The Goddess of Light will make due judgments on your sins, but before that you have to face the judgment of Her Majesty the Queen."

These words have already made his attitude clear.

Noah finally took action.

"Uncle Enros."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Enros got the nod and said solemnly, "Auston Brenner, colluded with his accomplices to murder the previous king and harmed the current Queen. His title of prince is now revoked and he is imprisoned in the dungeon. Morfa Claude, as an accomplice, is also imprisoned in the dungeon and awaits judgment later!"

Outside the White Court of Aarons, all the people were cheering and celebrating.

Inside the palace, the old and new regimes were quietly replacing each other.

It also brought this grand diplomatic event to a close.

……

The resignation of Prince Austin brought about a reshuffle of the entire Levis power.

Many ministers and officers in the prince's faction were dismissed or demoted because of various inside stories that were uncovered, including Xiro, Carloa and others. The military power of the East District Garrison was taken back and handed over to Ron for management.

Because of his meritorious service in providing intelligence, Bayard was appointed as the youngest commander in the history of the Third Legion.

Noah felt that she was not capable of managing the entire country for the time being, so she suggested that the power taken back from Austin be disbanded and handed over to the cabinet headed by Enros. Enros would assist in governing while learning all kinds of etiquette and political knowledge, doing what a queen should do.

In Levis's territory, all territories that had come into contact with Austin had their lords replaced, and inspectors were sent to prevent the expansion of territorial power and threaten the royal family, and to prevent incidents similar to the one in Heshvia City, in which the Lord of Heshvia was involved.

The two delegations of Louis and Hall also successfully signed a new diplomatic agreement with Noah, and both sides made concessions to reach a consensus.

One of them was that the Orwyn Empire and the Constantina Empire would send troops to the two border towns to develop trade and resist the threat of nomadic orcs on the border, and Levis would pay a fixed fee every year.

For players of the two empires, it is equivalent to the concept of opening an absolute safe zone in the war zone, which guarantees a certain level of logistical support within the war zone, and the benefits obtained by both sides are comparable.

Of course, the ones who benefited the most were the players who joined the Princess' camp, namely the Alice, Rose Heart, Aurora, Lost Paradise and other guilds.

With the generous points, Cecilia exchanged for a large amount of experience rewards and equipment items. As the top of the list on Orwen's side, she even exchanged for a mechanical alchemist's exclusive holy relic. Although it also required the collection of fragments to complete it, just like the Eternal Library, the Gallery, Ivan's Blood Clan Badge, and the Soul Finger Bone of Gray Flowing Years, it also improved Cecilia's already extraordinary combat power.

Not only that, all players who joined the princess's camp received the blessing of the Levis royal family, which was equivalent to a buff effect - the experience gained from deaths in the war zone was reduced by 10%, the experience gained was increased by 10%, the kill honor was increased by 10%, and it was easier to accept special honor tasks.

It can be said that with this BUFF, the elites in the major guilds, who were originally top players, will be able to achieve greater development in the war zone.

Besides that, there is another surprise.

As the guild that ranked first in the Oelwen rankings in terms of points, Alice also obtained the qualification to build a fortress on the border of Levis.

Although this fortress is only a small one, its main significance is that it helps Alice open up the front line, which is equivalent to establishing the concept of an "outpost" for Alice's members in the war zone.

Moreover, this fortress is under official protection of Levis. Unless there is a large-scale beast tide or an invasion by orcs from the border, there is generally no threat.

It is conceivable that after the war zone is opened, the hot traffic will be fed back to many members of Alice through this fortress, allowing Alice to usher in extraordinary opportunities. As for the Constantana Empire, Lost Paradise won the quota, but for them, it doesn't matter whether it is Lost Paradise or Aurora.

When some people are happy, others are sad.

Although it seems that Yuwen Hao has always been the worried one.

In the diplomatic incident, because standing on Prince Austin's side as the opponent's pawn damaged the interests of the two empires, after the incident was reported by members of the delegation such as Louis and Hall, the empire launched the appropriate sanctions.

The guilds under Yu Wenhao, such as Storm, Holy Angel, Dark Throne of the Constanta Empire, Iron Blood Thunder, etc., had to pay huge amounts of gold coins as compensation, and their guild reputation and honor were deducted.

Chapter 64 Rewards

Not only that, the nearly 1 elites who participated in the incident were also subject to personal sanctions, losing a large amount of experience, dropping 2- levels, and their points could not be used.

Not only is it equivalent to working for nothing during the diplomatic incident, but in the current environment where the mainstream echelon has reached level 114, almost the second level, it will take at least five or six days to make up for the lost levels.

Even though the Orwyn Empire had the upper hand in the diplomatic incident with the Karena Empire over the Kingdom of Garon, the Oath and Valhalla were unable to gain much from top guilds such as Imperial Epic, Ares, and Eternal Spire. Instead, they were hit hard by the many large guilds of the Karena Empire.

It can be said that the forces under Yuwen Hao are now seriously injured. It has even reached the point where the shares of Haoyu International, which is owned by Yuwen Hao under the Tianji Consortium, have fallen by about 5%.

"It's really unlucky."

Imagining Yuwen Hao's expression, I couldn't help but smile to myself.

However, he was somewhat fortunate. After all, if the other party had not contacted Prince Austin first and taken over the Lewis camp mission from him, then it was very likely that he had chosen the wrong side.

It seems that even experiences from previous lives must be treated with caution.
