Chapter 363 During the Ceremony
In an unknown little city of the Lockman Kingdom, before the sun had risen, soldiers clad in leather armour and armed with short swords were knocking on the doors of the commoners one by one, handing down the ruling lord's command to them.
"By the command of Viscount Roman, every commoner family must send at least one person to the Roland Square for assembly. Anyone who disobeys will be fined ten silver coins."
Under the threat of financial loss, even the reluctant ones from each family of the commoners, made their way to the square, responding to their lord's call. It was only after they had arrived that they discovered the reason for their summons.
The king of the kingdom is resigning his kingly duties today, and the sole heir, Princess Remilia, is still young. So, His Majesty Belradin has invited a Gold Dragon and appointed him as the Grand Duke to govern the kingdom.
