After dealing with the annoyance that was the Duke, Ryo allowed the Emissaries from other Nations to come in
After the door was opened, five people came in from the door, they were 3 men and two woman
They were a Human, a demon and a Dragonkin
As for the woman they were an Elf and a Human Girl
The man and the Elf looking woman who was Someone Ryo already knows were walking behind the Girl that was leading the group, and from Ryo's Perspective it would seem that they all allowed the Girl to walk ahead of them out of respect
She was a very beautiful woman that wore a White outfit, she had White hair and Red eyes, and from the way she walked and the Aura around her Ryo Immediately Could Tell that she was a [Supreme Hero]
Ryo even considered if she might be an equal to Scáthach
Although Scáthach is A [Great hero], she is also a [Demon Noble] which combined would potentially equal a [Supreme Hero]
This was in fact the Reason why Ryo upgraded his Statue to a [Demon King], in reality Ryo is only a [Demon Lord] but that is only his magical prowess, in Physical abilities he is [Champion]
In this world it is considered Impossible to Combine Magic and Physical prowess, you either a hero or a Demon Class, you can't be both
The woman who confidently walked to the front immediately noticed Merlin, Rama and more Importantly Scáthach, she seemed to be assessing them, but after words she and Knelt, Which Surprised Ryo quite a bit, since she was an emissary it was only expect of her to bow, this gave her an appreciated look from Ryo before he said
Ryo [Rise, Would you please tell me who you are and who is it that you serve my fair lady]
The Girl [My name is Synthia Ender, I am a Supreme Hero, that works for the Hero Goddess Kara, my duty here today is to congratulate you on not only becoming a king but ascending to a Demon King as well, my Master Kara Invited you're highness to the Diamond Capital "Luna Blu", she believes that you are a great person that deserve recognition, and she offers you and you're peerage a position in the "Diamond Company"]
Ryo [Thank you Synthia, You're Graduated is very appreciated, tell Goddess Kara that I appreciate her invite and I shall visit "Luna Blu", however I need Six months to settle things in Arkhan, as for the Invitation to the "Diamond Company" I formally Decline, as you may have noticed Already, we are not lacking in power here, I know that the standards in this continent is to chose between the "Diamond Company" and The "Dracula Dragons" but I have no intention on joining Either]
Synthia [Is that so... Then I shall report accordingly, this is a gift from our Goddess, it is a Skill Book, if you read it and understand the content you'll get a skill]
Ryo who received the book opened it
{Would you like to learn "Appraisal"?}
Ryo was startled for a second but then he said yes and received the appraisal skill and used it on Synthia
{
Name: Synthia Ender
Age: 214
Race: Human 50%, Fairy 50%
Gender: Female
Affection: 50% Intrigue
World Class: Supreme Hero 24%
Stats:
Strength: A
Agility: EX
Endurance: B
Mana: D
}
Immediately noticing the new Affection feature Ryo asked the system about it
{The Affection feature has been added after the user learned to use Appraisal, it lets the user finds out the feeling of other people towards him]
"That's actually a great skill does everyone that has "Appraisal" use it?"
{Negative, This feature is only usable through the system}
"That's good"
Ryo who noticed that he fazed for a bit looked at Synthia and said
Ryo [Thank your master for me Synthia Ender, this is a great skill, tell her that I shall give her something special when I come to "Luna Blu", it is such a useful skill, I did not even realize that you are a half Fairy]
Synthia [what! haw did you read the book, learn the skill and how to use it in mere second, you truly are incredible King Ryouto, I can't wait to see you grow stronger]
{Synthia's Affection has increased
65% Fascinated}
Ryo [Well Thank you Lady Synthia, now then will the Next emissary please step forward, Come, Lina]
Ryo was very happy with the way Synthia acted, he thought that she would be an annoyance but it would seem that the Goddess Hero Kara was very smart to send someone reasonable, he also wanted to wait six months before visiting Kara, as according to his training regime he should reach Hero Rank physically in less than Six months
He would however regret this later on when he realize how absurd training with Scáthach will be
Lina [My name is Lina Eden, I am The 1st princess of the Eden Elf Kingdom, I came here to congratulate you King Ryo, on becoming The King of Arkhan, My Mother the Queen also send her apologies and her prayers for your father who is also her brother in law, our Kingdom wasn't informed of the Calamity beast incident, if so we would have aided you, our Kingdom also wishes to keep our Friendly Relations with Arkhan and its King]
Ryo who saw the apologetic face that Lina was making simply laughed and scared her for a moment
Ryo [Fuhahahah, why the Apologetic face Lina, I am you're cousin you don't need to be that sorry about the Calamity thing, unfortunately it was a mistake that our Nobles made,
Aunt Sona has nothing to do with it, as for you Lina thank you for coming I haven't seen you since I was eight, you're welcome to stay in Arkhan as long as you want, the castle is always open for you, Lina]
Lina [Nh.. Thank you Lord Ryouto, I am also happy to see you after a long time my Lord, oh and Mother Sent you this Gift, It's Called "The Nectar of Yggdrasill" ]
Ryo who toke the item from Lina's Hand Smiled and said
Ryo [Thank you Lina, and Thank Aunt Sona for me, tell her I'll give her something special as well when I visit]
{Lina's Affection: 85% Gratitude/Admiration}
Lina was a good friend to Ryo and Lita when she visited with her mother, since she was the same age as Ryo, they were very close for a time but she had to go back to her Kingdom
Ryo [Now then, you there, Demon, Come closer]
The demon came closer and then he bowed, he then looked at Ryo and Said
The Demon [my name is Larank Payne, I am the Kingdom of Indura's Prime minister, I was sent here by our King Arshank Indura, The King gives his Congratulations to you king Ryouto and he sends his regards, he wishes to keep friendly relations with the Arkhan Kingdome]
Ryo looked at the man's eyes and he seemed to notice that the man disliked him and after looking at the system, his doubts were confirmed
{Larank's Affection: 22% Disgust}
Ryo [Well Larank Payne, Thank you're king for me, I appreciate the gesture, however, From the way you seem to be looking at me, it looks like you want to say something to me Demon]
Larank [Nothing my King, there is nothing that I wish to say]
Ryo [Oh! Merlin what does this man think of me?]
Merlin then looked at the man and said
Merlin [From what I can tell my Lord, he seems to be disgusted by the fact that you are a hybrid between an Elf and a Demon, and hates Arkhan for because a Half blood rules it]
Larank [What, No my lord this is not what I think of you my lord, you are a Demon king I would never think that]
Ryo [Oh! So you're telling me that my mentor for the last four years and my most trusted subject is lying to me?]
Larank [N…no my lord, I….]
Ryo [*sigh* am truly disappointed in you, your truthfully amount to nothing to me, so whatever you think of me in your mind is irrelevant to me, however, IF YOU DARE CALL ONE OF MY SUBJECTS A LIAR AGAIN I WILL KILL YOU,
As matter a fact I'll use you as an excuse to tell my Country people of my Race
Listen up Nobles and Soldiers of Arkhan, I am Ryouto Arkhan you're king, I am in fact 50% Demon and 25% Elf and 25% human, my father here was a hybrid but even he didn't know it
Now, is there anyone that objects me?
Is there someone here that is insulted by who I am?
I thought so,
From now on I don't want to hear this bullshit about some race more superior than the other, we are all Equal until we make ourselves Special,
You're race doesn't mean shit to me, Now Leave, and come closer Human]
Larank who almost pissed himself since so many strong figures in The Throne room were angry at him immediately left the Castle, he wanted to immediately go back to his safe home
The Human than came closer and instead of bowing down he stood in Front of the Throne before he said
The Human [I AM A MESSANGER FROM THE GREAT ZION KINGDOM, MY KING HAS SENT ME HERE TO DECLARE WAR ON THE KINGDOM OF ARKHAN, haahahha, COUNT YOUR DAYS YOU FILTHY DEMONS, THE GREAT PURGE IS COMING, AS FOR YOU FAKE DEMON KING, My King already knows about you False Claims at Becoming a Demon King, Heh, you think anyone would believe someone becoming a demon king without help from the Diamond Company, You Fool, We will cleanse you all in the name of the Holy Gods]
Following the man's declaration, Multiple people including Rama, Scáthach, Aeron, and even Synthia Applied their murderous intent on him, However before any of it could reach him Ryo Applied his God Protection on the man, after doing so an invisible powerful force impacted the man's shield that was made by Ryo
The Human [Huh]
After the Impact everyone who directed the intent looked at Ryo, however before they could say anything, Ryo Teleported in front of the man
The human looked at Ryo with confidence on his face but Ryo simply ignored that before he reached out to the man's left' ear and using a spell
Ryo [{World Devourer, Gluttony}]
Then out of the man's Ear a Robotic looking worm came out, and after seeing it everyone understood why Ryo protected the man
As for the man himself, he broke down and fell on his knees crying
Ryo [*sigh* what a disappointment, they used a Legendary item to declare a losing war]
Ryo who looked at the legendary item and noticed that it was worthless to him, so he decided to sell it to the system in exchange for SP
He wanted to get FP but it looks like the only way to get that was to do missions or kill high level enemies
{The system wants to purchase the Worm of Mind control [Legendary] for the price of 25000SP and 5FP, does the user accept?}
"Yes"
Ryo then looked at his soldiers and Agmond
Ryo [Take care of this man and make sure to heal him and hear his side, it would seem that he was being controlled by the Zion King]
Ryo would have probably never noticed that the man was being controlled before, it was only after the system's affection showed {???} That he knew that something was off and used his magic to scan the man
After the man was taken he went to his throne, after ward Synthia came forward again and said
Synthia [King Ryouto, the Diamond company will deal with this Situation immediately, it is unacceptable to start a war with another company without our goddess's approval]
Ryo [That will be unnecessary Lady Synthia, I shall deal with the situation myself, although I understand your concerns, I promise you the people of Zion will be treated Respectfully, I am not a tyrant]
"At least not anymore"
Synthia [I see, then this matter will be left for you to deal with, please do not disappoint me King Ryouto, My Goddess is a peaceful woman but she hates Tyrants and Evil men]
Ryo [No need to worry, Now then will the last Emissary come forward]
The DragonKin Man who finally got a turn, came to the front and bowed before saying
The Dragonkin man [My Name is Kriz Ukita, I am the DragonKin's Number one warrior, I was sent here to congratulate you King and Gift you this]
Although the man's way of speech was pretty rash, Ryo simply ignored it as the man's affection showed
65% Respect
Ryo toke the Spear from Kriz before saying
Ryo [Thank you Kriz Ukita, Tell you're king that his gesture is appreciated and that we in Arkhan will always try to keep friendly relations with The Dragonia]
Surprising Ryo Quite a bit The DragonKin Kriz Screamed and said
Kriz [AGHHHH THANK YOU KING RYOUTO, Sorry we DragonKin like the strong so our respect for you is quite high, HAHAHAH, I hope you come to our country King Ryouto, We would love to have you there]
Ryo [Fuahahaha, I like you as well Kriz, I will make sure to visit your country in the future, Now then let us wrap up]
