Paul was restless. He winked at Erica, asking if Lin Qingping would be back in time, and then forced himself to ask, "I wonder what brings you to the Copper Black Cross, Deacon? If there's anything we can do to help you, please don't hesitate to ask. We will do our best!"
"Ah."
Andre sneered, mocking, "So you don't consider yourselves subordinates of the Sword King anymore? Tony hasn't even agreed to your defection to the new king!"
"this.................."
Paul was speechless for a moment.
Indeed, from a legal standpoint, this matter does require the approval of the Sword King, Tony.
After all, the bronze cross had already sworn allegiance to him, and for Paul to switch allegiance to another without saying a word was simply dishonorable.
The fact that the Sword King didn't immediately fly into a rage and come knocking on Lin Qingping's door was already a great show of respect for his "brother."
"Humph."
Seeing that Paul was speechless, Andrei was too lazy to continue mocking him. He simply took a sip of red tea and said calmly, "Tony will arrive soon. According to the Sword King's wishes, it's not impossible for you, the Copper Black Cross, to switch allegiance to the new king."
"As long as the new king is willing to fight for Tony, regardless of who wins or loses the match, the Copper Black Cross will henceforth be the new king's subordinate."
"Tony said that the Godkillers were brothers and sisters, and as the older brother, he should give his newborn younger brother a gift!"
Speaking of this, Andrei gets a headache.
The Sword King is known for his indifference to power.
To be precise, in this world, besides fighting against the strong and honing one's swordsmanship...
There was nothing else that Tony was interested in.
Beauty, money, power...
I don't care at all!
The only thing I cannot put down is the long sword in my hand!
He is a very pure person.
So pure that his mind is solely focused on swordsmanship and combat.
This focus has brought the Sword King tremendous rewards!
The martial arts master Luo Hao once said that, in terms of swordsmanship alone, the Sword King and she were evenly matched.
It's easy to imagine how skilled Tony was at swordsmanship!
They have definitely reached the level of gods!
Of course, it's just swordsmanship.
In other aspects, Tony is far inferior...
"Is it just one match?"
Upon hearing this, Paul breathed a sigh of relief.
He dared to do this because he had a good understanding of the Sword King's character.
It now seems that the Sword King doesn't really care much about the forces under his command.
On the contrary, the "King's Steward" in front of him seemed to be holding a grudge.
But it doesn’t matter.
Andrei was merely a king's steward, not a god-slayer.
His opinion is actually not important.
Anyway, Paul isn't afraid of Andre at all. In terms of strength, Paul is even a level above Andre!
After that, the reception room fell silent.
No one spoke again.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Three hours later.
A blond man wearing jeans, a dark blue short-sleeved shirt, and sunglasses strolled into the Red Copper Black Cross compound like an old man in a park.
No one dared to stop him.
The reason is simple: this blond youth is none other than Salvatore, the Sword King, one of the seven Godslayers!
"Yo! Hello everyone~"
"Paul, you've aged so much! Your hair is all white. Have you been too busy with work lately?"
"Erica has grown up and become more and more beautiful. When you become my brother's great knight, remember to let me know, and I'll give you a big gift!"
The Sword King chuckled and reached out to greet everyone, showing no dignity befitting a king and completely disregarding the betrayal of the Crimson Black Cross.
On the contrary, he was very close to Paul and Erica.
"Greetings, Your Highness, King of Swords."
"Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness the Sword King~"
Paul bowed, and Erica followed suit with a bow while lifting her skirt.
To be honest, Erica always felt that although the Sword King was nominally a leader and a king,
In reality, he's more like a friendly older brother next door.
Sunny and warm-hearted, with no ill intentions.
He's a bit slow-witted; when he's not fighting, he looks rather silly.
"Go for it, Erica! If you and my brother have a child in the future, Uncle Tony will teach him swordsmanship!"
The "brother" Tony mentioned is naturally Lin Qingping, the seventh god-slayer.
This unreliable Sword King not only disregarded the betrayal of the Crimson Black Cross, but also offered his blessing.
It's like being a matchmaker; it's really hard to keep up.
Andrei's forehead veins throbbed with excitement!
She couldn't help but speak up to remind Tony that she was still there!
"Ahem, Your Highness the Sword King!"
"Hey? Andrei, what are you doing here?"
"........................"
Shouldn't I have come?
Andrei's blood pressure spiked immediately. If he hadn't been mindful of his friend's feelings, he probably would have started yelling at him on the spot.
"Your Highness, Sword King, have you forgotten that the Crimson Black Cross wanted to pledge allegiance to the new king? I'm not here, so who will witness this, who will handle this?"
"Haha, you're right. As expected of you, Andrei, you've been a great help!"
The Sword King's biggest annoyance is dealing with official business, so he is basically a hands-off manager.
Everything was handled by Andrei.
It's only because the Godslayer's combat power is too high; he can destroy a country single-handedly. Otherwise, his subordinates would probably have already sidelined him...
"correct."
Looking around, Tony didn't see the person he most wanted to see.
So he couldn't help but ask Paul, "Where is my brother? Where is he?"
"actually...................."
"Actually what?"
"Your Highness, Sword King, you may not know this, but the new king has not yet returned. He went to the Netherworld three days ago and has not contacted us since."
"Oh I got it."
Tony punched his fist in the palm, looking like he knew exactly what was going on: "He must be lost! Just like me! I got lost when I was crossing the Pacific before! If it weren't for Andre, I probably would have ended up in Japan!"
After a pause, the Sword King chuckled and said, "But even if we end up in Japan, it doesn't matter. It'll be a good opportunity to fight the new king beforehand! Speaking of which, I wish you hadn't come to help me back then, Andrei..."
Is this still my fault??
Andrei's face, which looked like it was about to collapse from overwork, turned completely dark.
He took several deep breaths to suppress the urge to curse.
I am the trusted Grand Knight, and he is the King.
There's a hierarchy, so I can't scold him.
Yes, I can't scold him...
Only through this self-hypnosis could Andrei suppress his anger.
She snorted coldly, turned her head away, and pretended not to see Tony's stupid-looking smiling face.
What else can be done?
They've already sworn allegiance, so they can't just "betray" like Paul, can they?
The red copper and black cross were just subordinates; Andrei was different.
He could not betray Tony.
"Then let's wait a while."
Pretending not to hear Andrei's cold snort, Tony casually sat down in the host's seat: "It's been three days. Even if he really got lost, my brother should be coming out soon. I'll just wait here for a while!"
"Anyway, I'm free these few days. By the way, Andrei... if the new king isn't here by dinner time, could you prepare a plate of Italian pasta for me?"
A god-slayer who only wanted to eat a bowl of Italian pasta?
Andrei didn't know whether to say that Tony was frugal or lacked ambition.
They're far too easily satisfied...
He sighed inwardly, about to reply, when he heard a cool and clear young voice coming from outside the door.
"You don't need to make your great knight prepare anything. If you can defeat me, I can prepare whatever you want to eat."
This is......................
A new king?!
Erica and Paul exchanged a glance, and both could see surprise in each other's eyes!
Although I don't believe those rumors, such as "the new king has died in the underworld" or similar statements.
But after not seeing him for three days, I was still a little scared.
As the saying goes, it's better to be safe than sorry.
What if Lin Qingping's plans backfire?
It's not impossible.
it's good now.
Paul and Erica were finally relieved to see Lin Qingping return unharmed!
And the Sword King Tony also showed a joyful smile.
He didn't think this powerful brother would die in the Netherworld at all; otherwise, why would he personally come to visit?
"Brother! You've finally arrived!"
Watching the handsome, god-like black-haired boy slowly walk into the reception room.
Tony jumped up excitedly, and even the iron sword at his waist began to tremble!
With just one glance, his martial arts intuition told him that the young man in front of him was very strong!
Super strong!
maybe.....................
He is stronger than himself, the King of Swords!
"I heard on my way here that you wanted to fight me?"
