563 The Surging Waves from the New Era (1/2)
In the Parliament of Nobles in Cocus, the Duchy of Calais.
”All my words and promises will be written in the Code. I, as well as the future kings, and queens will abide by the law just as all you nobles! The Congress of Magic will be the supervisor!”
When the nobles heard those words from Natasha, none of them could remain calm anymore. However, a second later, after an incredibly loud explosion, the voice had been completely cut off, and there were only electric currents left.
”What happened?”
”What's going on?”
”Something happened to Nekso Palace?! Was it because of the war among those legendaries?”
”Was it the Church? Or the Congress?”
Yourcenar, Song of Dusk, looked northwest where the city of Rentato was.
As a legendary knight, he could see the picture: There was that burning sun radiating its endless light and power in the sky, and then an eye-catching mushroom cloud rose.
At this time, Joaquin, the president of Moonsong League, walked in the front gate. His face was lit up with the wild joy. He claimed aloud, ”The electromagnetic signal has been interrupted. That means Eternal Blaze had been successfully launched!”
”Eternal Blaze?” Yourcenar repeated the words confusedly. He never heard such a powerful legendary spell.
But he did not ask, knowing that the information Joaquin had was also rather limited. He supposed that all the communication in Rentato had all been cut off.
Joaquin's joy and confidence influenced the nobles. Recalling Natasha's speech, their hearts were thudding like crazy. The drive and excitement they were experiencing were like flames making them feel rather restless. Some of the nobles were now looking at the Grand Duke of Calais, and the rest was looking at Yourcenar, as if they were begging him.
Yourcenar released a sigh and there was no more hesitation. He walked to the Grand Duke and kneeled down on one knee,
”Your Majesty, the old era has ended, and the new one is coming. Please give the order to expel the extreme South Church and only keep the Moderates as the duchy's religion!”
Under his lead, all the nobles stood up and kneeled down together,
”Your Majesty, please give the order to be ready for the new era!”
The voices joined, lingering in the parliament hall like surging waves. No one dared to block it, as the trend was totally inevitable!
The Grand Duke of the Duchy of Calais knew that there was no way that he could reject this. The shackle of the old era had been destroyed, and the new order was forming. At this moment, even the majesties had to obey the trend of the times, or they would be thrown out of their thrones as the nobles would regard them as betrayers who served the Church.
There was no other choice left to the Grand Duke. His family had not yet produced a legendary knight. Therefore, he stood up and announced aloud,
”I, the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Calais, here give the order to expel the South Church but keep the Moderates!”
”Here I swear by my soul and my destiny to the Lord of Hell, I will return the power to you like how the Kingdom of Holm is going to do!”
Yourcenar and the rest of the nobles smiled,
”We pledge our lifelong allegiance to Your Majesty!”
......
In Salyvaor, the capital of Brianne.
Bedrenka, Hammer of the Void, and Basor, Knight of Disasters, kneeled down in front of the king of Brianne. Behind them were the members of the Parliament of Nobles,
”Your Majesty, this is unstoppable and inevitable. Please make your decision as soon as possible. If the Congress wins the war on its own, we'll be of no use to them!”
......
Colette.
No matter how old Life Reaper was, he now looked like a cheerful teenager with light brown hair. However, at this moment, the smile on his face had completely disappeared. And he was kneeling down as the rest of the nobles and said,
”Your Magic, the new era is coming, and we have to get ready. Please give the order to assist the Congress of Magic!”
......
In Kasvig, the capital of the city union of the coastal Northland.
As the leader, Burning Lady herself was rather inspired by Natasha's speech, as Natasha's words had given her the way to strengthen the loose union. Also, she had got the news sent back from Brianne, Colette, and Calais. Like a red rose, she smiled, and then she stood up,
”The new era is right there. So I am going to assist the Congress of Magic and reform the city union. Does everyone agree?”
The nobles all kneeled down out of joy, ”All as you wish, my Lord.”
No one dared to say no at this moment.
......
After the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Calais gave the order, Song of Dusk had left the hall and soared into the sky to find Torrens. He was going to give an extra strike to Torrens, so that the beginning of the new era would mark his name.
However, far before he approached, Torrens, Angel of Wisdom, had quickly dodged to the other side to avoid the breath of the rainbow dragon. After casting the divine spell to make sure that Erica could not lock onto him for a short period of time, Torrens cast something like Chaos Teleportation and ran away from the battlefield.
Yourcenar was quite confused. How did Torrens know that he was not here to help?
