Chapter 265 Kingdom Heir

To be on the safe side, Chi Yao chose to ask the park questions.

"Paradise, what will be the result if I use the 'Main Mission Failure Immunity'?"

[The hunter holds the 'Main Mission Failure Immunity Right (Level 1)'. This right can exempt the penalties for mission failure such as deduction of attributes, Paradise Coins, and forced execution. Judgment in progress.]

[Judgment completed. After the hunter uses this authority, there are two options:]

Option 1: Only exempt the failure penalty of the first phase of the main task "Reaching the Seven Water City" and continue with the next phase of the main task.

Option 2: Completely exempt from the penalty for failure of all main quests, but the hunter's income in this world is reduced by 50%, and the remaining stay time is 6 days.

The two choices given by Leyuan clearly expressed one meaning, which was to "suggest" Chi Yao to continue to complete the main task, but still leave room for maneuver.

If he completely gave up the main quest, he would have to rely on 15 days to earn as much profit as possible in the One Piece world, but a 50% reduction in final profit would be hard for Chi Yao to accept.

Chi Yao touched his chin, thinking.

'It seems that option 1 is basically the only option.'

"If it is still a step-by-step mission like the original, the second part of the mission is to choose a faction to join. Maybe I can try to get in touch with the World Government from the Kingdom of Tyria."

Chi Yao made a decision, walked to the wardrobe beside the study, opened it, hid his equipment, and chose a very conspicuous golden red uniform to wear. Golden red is the symbolic color of the Kingdom of Tyria, and also represents the identity of the royal family.

Chi Yao opened the door of the study and what came into view was a wide corridor. The floor was paved with stone bricks engraved with sun patterns. One side of the corridor faced the outdoors. It was summer now, and the bright sunlight shone on the stone bricks, making the sun patterns on them sparkle.

Chi Yao walked out first, and the maid Ellie returned to "normal", following Chi Yao cautiously, like a student who had made a mistake and didn't know how to explain to the teacher.

Chi Yao stepped onto the corridor and could feel some warmth coming from under his feet. Chi Yao looked towards the southeast, where there was a huge palace illuminated by the sun as if covered with a layer of golden light. That was the main hall of the palace, where King Tonino Carlo was.

Chi Yao was quite calm and walked slowly towards the palace. Judging from the identity information provided by Leyuan and what he learned from the maid Ellie, Tonino Carlo was a wise and capable monarch.

His identity was the second prince who ran away from home two years ago. Even if Tonino Carlo did not care much about his second son and did not know about his adventures at sea, the news of his second son's return would certainly not be hidden from his eyes and ears.

Given Tonino Carlo's control over the Kingdom of Tyria, he would get the news within ten minutes as soon as the second prince's ship arrived.

Judging from Tonino Carlo's laissez-faire behavior now, he is obviously waiting for Chi Yao to come to him so that the father and son can have a "long-awaited reunion".

Chi Yao asked the maid Ellie to complete the daily work. Chi Yao left the unused mask and the space teleportation array (primary) with her as a backup insurance.

This was exactly what Chi Yao wanted. All necessary safety measures had been taken, so he wore golden and red clothes and walked calmly towards the main hall of the palace not far away.

When Chi Yaozheng walked to the door of the front hall, he bumped into a young man who had just walked out of the hall. He was also wearing a golden and red uniform and had black hair.

Chi Yao's eyes narrowed. According to the identity information provided by Paradise, the gentle-looking and handsome man in front of him was his "brother" in real terms, the eldest prince of the Kingdom of Tyria, Tonino Harvey.

Tonino Harvey is the first in line to the throne of the Kingdom of Tyria, but King Tonino Carlo is in his prime and holds great power, so he only lets him be in charge of the 30% of the round sunstone mining business attached to the King of Tyria, as a way to train him.

Tonino Harvey was originally thinking about the mining target policy his father had given him for this month. He never expected that as soon as he walked out of the front hall, he saw his younger brother Tonino Huiyao, who had run away from home for two years, appear in front of him.

Tonino Xavi was slightly stunned, then immediately walked forward, his hands trembling slightly, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked with a concerned look on his face.

"Gray, Gray Yao?! Second brother, is that you?"

"You're back? Where have you been these past two years? How have you been? Have you suffered much?"

Chi Yao could judge through the effect of soul perception that Tonino Xavi's concern for him was genuine.

But the other party appeared in the front hall at the time when he was preparing to meet the king, and just bumped into him face to face. It was indeed a coincidence that was somewhat intriguing.

Chi Yao spread out his sense of wind and could feel that there were several guards watching this place not far away. If nothing unexpected happened, this encounter would be a test.

Chi Yao's heart was as calm as the surface of the water, but on the surface he responded enthusiastically.

"Brother Harvey, I'm fine. I've actually been living a good life in the past two years! I'm gradually realizing my dream back then and traveling around the world!"

Tonino Harvey paused while listening to Chi Yao's words, then he sighed and said.

"Traveling around the world? I thought you were just joking, but I didn't expect you to really run away from home like this."

Tonino Xavi seemed to have thought of something and immediately reminded Chi Yao with a worried look.

"By the way, second brother, please don't say that to father's face. When you ran away from home, father's expression was quite serious!"

"You came to the main hall now just to see your father, right? Follow me."

As he spoke, Tonino Xavi waved his hand to signal Chi Yao to follow him and walk into the palace.

Chi Yao followed Tonino Harvey through the magnificent palace, past the stone walls carved with various pictures, and finally arrived in front of the door of a palace with a noticeably heavy atmosphere.

Tonino Xavi walked forward and was about to knock on the door when a majestic voice that seemed to condense into an air wave came from inside the door.

"Harvey, let Huiyao in. I want to talk to him alone. Go and handle the task I gave you first."

Tonino Harvey was slightly startled, then he realized that Tonino Carlo had been prepared for this moment, so he leaned forward, bowed, and answered.

"Yes, father."

Before leaving, Tonino Xavi used facial expressions to remind Chi Yao to remember what he had just said.

In response, Chi Yao could only nod his head to indicate that he understood.

Chi Yao walked forward and pushed open the door of the palace, and saw the angular stairs inside the palace stacked up like a mountain. At the top of the mountain was a golden-red throne, emitting gentle light and heat, like a small sun.

On the throne carved from a whole round sun stone, there was a straight figure sitting upright. His face looked dignified under the light of the round sun stone, and the aura around him was as majestic and steady as towering mountains, completely suppressing the brilliance emanating from the throne.

The moment Chi Yao felt the momentum on the throne, his eyes narrowed sharply, he took a step back, and put his hands in front of him to steady his body. At the same time, he realized that something was wrong. He seemed to have underestimated Tonino Carlo's strength.

"This momentum is probably more than the second level! It is worthy of being a fully open derivative world. It gave me such a difficult problem right from the start."

Tonino Carlo's golden-red eyes stared at Chi Yao. Seeing that Chi Yao was not crushed by his momentum, he nodded with satisfaction. He spoke, and his majestic voice rolled up layers of air waves, directly pushing the open door of the hall closed.

"Not bad, you can withstand my momentum. It seems that you have grown a lot in the past two years. Now you are qualified."

"Tell me, now that you choose to come back, have you thought it through?"

"Do you want to fight for the position of heir to the kingdom?"

　First update.

　　I'm very sorry for breaking my promise. I'm having a serious writer's block, so I can only update once for now.
