Chapter 341: Chapter 323 The Death of the Cyart King

In the dimly-lit basement of the Fischer Manor, the terrifying black light in the clear bottle flickered incessantly.

If the power within were to surge into the outside world, it would probably be unstoppable by anyone.

At this moment, Karl calmly sensed his followers all over the world with his intangible consciousness.

“In this period, not only in Cyart, but my followers around the world have become more and more numerous, and some of them have gradually been brought into the fold by the members of the Fischer family that I sent.”

“Yes, the number of Proselytes is gradually increasing, with more than a hundred people added in just a few years.”

“Although the total number of Daybreakers and Proselytes, the two types of Blood Receivers, is still not large, a secret church possessing several hundred Extraordinary Exponents is actually considered a formidable and vast organization.”

“Moreover, Lilian and others have already begun to try to contact and woo some of the noble family members from the East Coast Province, especially those nobles who are born without the power of Bloodline and are discriminated against and excluded by mainstream values.”

He pondered for a moment.

“So far, there haven’t been any mistakes or chaos, and the ‘problems’ that occasionally emerged have all been ‘corrected’ in time.”

“Very good.”

Karl was pleased with the current situation, fully feeling that the Fischer’s status as a secret clan had moved beyond the initial stage and entered a completely new phase.

For now, this phase could be called the “growth” stage.

In the “growth” stage, the members of the Fischer family were still perfecting all aspects of the entire family and the Dawn Church. Once everything was in place, the Fischer family would enter the “consolidation” phase. By then, the foundation of the Fischer family and the Dawn Church would truly be on par with, or even surpass, the Ten Great Pillar Families of the Eastern Four Kingdoms.

The various aspects of the Fischer family were brimming with an upward momentum, but he felt in his heart that if this development continued, conflict with the Ten Great Families would be inevitable sooner or later.

“Because the positions of power are always limited, and the strong who rise later always want to or are forced to take those few positions of control.”

Karl was all too clear about this.

Resources and power are always limited, and conflict and war are inevitable. They are the main themes of the material world.

When that time comes, it will be the real test for the Fischer family.

——

The hot summer arrived.

An extremely important piece of news swiftly traveled from the Cyart Royal Capital, gradually reaching the major families of Cyart through one royal messenger after another.

Then, the important news quickly spread throughout the country.

It was a shocking piece of bad news that made all the Cyart people astonished, and even the Lorne citizens of the Eastern Four Kingdoms were surprised for a long time.

“Have you heard? The Cyart King has died!”

“Quick, look at the newspaper, the Cyart King has passed away!”

“The King is dead? Is it true?”

“Newspapers are going up in price today! The Cyart King has passed away! A national mourning will soon be held!”

The sudden death of the Cyart King, like a massive bombshell, instantly set all of Cyart abuzz.

The great nobility across the land fell into deep silence. However, logically speaking, given that the Cyart King was the same age as Duke Black Iron, it was about time for him to pass away. Moreover, the most common price for using Forbidden rare artifacts is the cost of one’s lifespan, so his sudden death was objectively quite normal.

For most Cyart people, the Cyart King was a legendary figure, a founding Monarch who reigned for a century. Although his prestige was slightly less than Duke Black Iron’s, he still commanded the adoration of many.

For a while, the people who had once wept for Duke Black Iron, many now cried in grief over the news of the Cyart King’s death.

Then, the circle of nobility received new information. It turned out the Adley Royal Family had issued a command, calling for many important individuals from various great families, including the Fischer family, to gather in the Cyart Royal Capital. Following that, a new Cyart King was to be chosen from among the members of the Royal Family in their presence!

This matter once again shocked everyone. For the many great nobles, the selection of this new King was of utmost importance.

They were all considering how the ascension of the new Cyart King would affect the interests of each family.

Meanwhile, in Nasir City, the Fischer family also received the news promptly.

In the grand hall of the family manor, Byrne held a newspaper, discussing the matter with Chris, Darren, and Vanessa.
