Fantasy Lord: Beginning with Daily Intelligence

Chapter 525 - 308: Becoming a Count Today and Returning to My Territory

The ennoblement of the Count was undoubtedly solemn, and at this moment, the entire Royal Capital became lively. The majestic ceremonial music played, and a grand red carpet extended from the Royal Palace all the way to the city gate. In the central square of the palace, the statue of the Goddess of Life emanated an incomparably rich glow of life.

All those bathed in this radiance could clearly feel the stirring of the Life Source Power within them.

Many people began to excitedly and eagerly practice the Knight’s Breathing Technique.

Where the grand red carpet lay.

Count Engel, riding a white steed, slowly approached from the direction of the city gate.

Behind him.

Were eleven figures also mounted on white horses.

The moment the twelve appeared.

A battery of Magic Crystal Cannons simultaneously burst into light.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Rumble!"

The tremendous roar echoed, the glow of the Magic Crystal Cannons illuminated the entire sky above the Royal Palace, making it as resplendent as a starry sky at this moment.

An exhilarating symphony played.

Everyone’s expression involuntarily became solemn.

At this moment, Thor was also clad in standard Knight’s Barrel Helmet.

In the entire team, only Count Engel was wearing the Nobility ceremonial plate armor.

His golden hair hung over his shoulders.

In his hand was a longsword symbolizing noble rights and duties.

Thor and the other eleven were like a protective guard around Count Engel.

The eleven also held Knight’s Longswords.

However, unlike Count Engel’s golden Knight’s Longsword, the Knight’s Longswords held by the eleven were all silvery-white.

Thor’s mind gradually calmed as he walked.

And under the convergence of countless gazes.

The crowd arrived once again at the square of the Royal Capital.

The massive and towering statue of the Goddess of Life continued to emit its soft, gentle glow.

Beneath the statue was a high stone staircase.

On top of the stone steps.

Over a hundred Court Nobles were gathered here.

Besides these, there was a figure at the center that Thor had become somewhat familiar with.

"The Tulip King!"

Whispering to himself inwardly, Thor then fully composed his thoughts.

As he composed himself.

The group finally arrived beneath the stone steps.

Accompanied by the adaptation of a burly Knight Commander.

All noticeable figures dismounted quickly, including Count Engel.

The only difference was that after Count Engel dismounted, he immediately knelt on one knee.

The eleven behind him, including Thor, removed their Barrel Helmets before kneeling on one knee.

Amidst all the kneeling figures.

A Court Noble stepped forward, opening the book in his hand that chronicled the ceremony.

"Brave and fearless Nobles, your loyalty has earned the King’s favor, and your achievements shine under the glow of the Goddess of Life."

"Are you willing, under the radiance of the Goddess of Life, to continue following the virtues of knights, to protect your people, to clear the thorns ahead for the King, and let the King’s light shine on the entire Kingdom...!"

A sonorous voice rose.

Accompanied by this voice, the solemn atmosphere around seemed to thicken even more.

"I am willing!"

"I, Engel Dressrosa, swear by my knightly virtues, willing to follow the King’s footsteps, to clear the thorns ahead for the King, and let the King’s light shine on the entire Kingdom...!"

"I, Thor, Dressrosa...."

"I!..."

......

Voices rose, and at this moment, the twelve were without exception.

When their voices dropped, the glow of the Goddess of Life also seemed to illuminate them uniquely, spreading a warm feeling in everyone’s heart.

Of course, everyone understood that this did not have any binding force; it was not a contract, merely a ceremony.

Yet even so, everyone’s heart surged.

Count Engel felt this too, as did the others, apart from Thor.

To them, the Count represented the result of generations of struggle by the family over hundreds of years.

Finally achieving this level, how could they not be excited?

Especially at this moment, when the figure atop the steps slowly descended.

Everyone’s breath involuntarily became heavier.

The King, it was indeed the Tulip King.

The true sovereign of the entire Tulip Kingdom.

"From this day forward, Count Engel Dressrosa is raised to Marquis."

"Thor, Dario, Romannov, Seville, Asprilla, Gemini Lacroix, Gimarranes Blanc...........Umberto Gimenez are promoted to Count."

"May glory be with you all!"

"May the Goddess of Life be with you, my most loyal warriors!"

The Tulip King’s deep voice, carrying gravity, rang out.

"King, may your glory be everglow!!"

"May the Goddess of Life be with you!"

"King, may your glory be everglow!!"

"May the Goddess of Life be with you!"

.......

With the Tulip King’s voice fading, the resounding and indescribable excitement in the voices of the twelve filled the entire square.

At this moment, a burning passion was apparent in the eyes of the eleven.

And amidst the shouts, the ennoblement ceremony was brought to a close.

From this moment, there were eleven newly created Counts and one Marquis.

Count Engel was elevated to Marquis Engel, while Thor was also elevated to Count.

The Dressrosa Family had truly experienced a significant transformation.
