Chapter 9 the Four Dukes of britain
Inside Rhongomyniad's castle, there were fully armed solemn knights all around. They strictly guard everything around them to prevent any suspicious persons and intruders.
At the top of the castle, this is where the castle is most heavily guarded, and the nearby knights were moved away to prevent them from hearing the subsequent conversation. There are five different figures sitting beside a white jade stone table. Three women and two men, they are the current four Dukes of Britain and the new king who is about to be crowned.
At the invitation of Rhongomyniad, the other three grand Dukes came here. Get ready to meet Lucifer, the new king. At the same time, this is also a ceremony of identification. If you want to be crowned, you must first get the support of the four princes. The meaning of Rhongomyniad is already very obvious. Although she supported Lucifer, Lucifer still needs to rely on his own ability to get the other three.
The black tea on the table has become cold, but none of the people here wants to taste it. The three dukes looked at Lucifer, their eyes focused on the holy sword in his hand. The sword has been sheathed, and the overall appearance is not visible, but the luxurious exterior outside the sheath can be seen.
Lucifer changed into a formal suit rarely seen, a white armor, and a white cloak behind him. If only from the far, it looked like Rhongomyniad's. In fact, this armor was also sent by Rhongomyniad.
While the three dukes were looking at Lucifer, he was also looking at them. For a while, the atmosphere became a little weird.
"Hey! Is this our new king. It looks surprisingly young, and he has my appetite." The Grand Duke of the West, Semiramis spoke first.
Unlike Rhongomyniad, who is a sideline of the royal family for countless generations, this beautiful woman is an elf, and is said to be a direct descendant of the contract elf made by the first king. Until now, she has been regarded as the veteran of the thrd gens.
"Finally someone can stand up. I thought no one can inherit the crown." The smiling woman has long red hair and looks full of maternal brilliance. Her name is Boudicca, the Duke of the East. [Goddess of Victory] who has resisted the invasion of Holy Rome several times.
"Rhongomyniad, I don't know where you found this guy, but can he really take on the responsibility of protecting this country?" The person who spoke this time was a serious man, Georgios, the Grand Duke of the South, is a family of swords who have served the royal family in the past. Because of his achievements in slaying the dragon, he was called Saint Georgios by the world.
"No matter who he is, he drew the holy sword in the stone, and the holy sword also chose him. The one who drew the holy sword is the king of Britain. This is not only the legacy of the previous kings, but also the history of Britain. The tradition since then." The response to Giorgios was Rhongomyniad, the Grand Duke of the North, the strongest knight in Britain, with many titles such as the glorious lion and the goddess of ice and blood.
Guarding the northern fortress for many years, she has achieved her fame with the blood of countless Ruthness in the glacier country. At the same time, she was also a sideline of the king. Although she had been separated from the royal family countless generations ago, her bloodline was awakened in this generation and she was honored to become the North Duke.
"But he doesn't have royal blood." Saint Georgios retorted immediately.
"Morgan, who has the blood of the royal family, is not only unable to draw the holy sword, but also unable to fulfill the responsibility of the king. If the country is handed over to her, the people will not recognize her legitimacy, let alone those aristocrats with inflated ambitions. In the end, this The country will only go to destruction" Rhongomyniad opened her eyes and looked at St. Georgios indifferently.
The royal family is not without queens, but it is obviously impossible for Morgan to become queen.
"I can't agree. If you are not a member of the royal family, you want to inherit this country. In this way, what is the meaning of the country left by the ancestor."
"Oh! What's the point, do you mean that the inheritance of royal blood is more important than saving the country in front of you?" Sitting on the top, Lucifer said in a timely manner.
"I... never meant that."
"It seems that the royal bloodline seems to be more recognized by you than an unknown person like me who didn't know where it came from." During the words, Lucifer looked at the three grand Dukes next to him.
Although they are not direct, their expressions have already explained the meaning. After all, no matter how you look at it, Lucifer looks very suspicious, but there is a royal family member with blood, and the two are not comparable at all.
"It's not such an exaggeration, but you also said it yourself, an unknown person who didn't know where it came from. We only saw you for the first time today. If we want us to believe in you, don't you think it's too strange?" Semiramis's expression seemed casual, but he told a fact.
"Really, then I won't talk too much nonsense. I will only ask one question now, four dukes, are you still willing to unite under this holy sword." Lucifer got up, with the holy sword in hand. Unsheated. He put the shining holy sword directly on the tabletop.
