Chapter 352 - Kings speach (1/2)

An official announcement had just been made, and it was a first for not only the academy, but for the entirety of Avrion to find out who the King of their kingdom was. All the students who had graduated either joined the army or had left when the Redwing's took over. It was the reason why the current set of students had never seen Ray before, and only knew the others from the years of history the Avrion had.

Although this announcement was made publicly, Slyvia had also planned to reveal this information to the rest of the knights. They were their own kingdom now, and they would be targeted no matter what. Ray had stated that he was sick of hiding, so it was time to reveal the truth to everyone.

”Wait, he was the King this whole time? It can't be true, right?” A student said.

”It makes sense now. Don't you remember how the master knights were bowing down to him immediately?”

”Huh? But why did he get chosen? I thought the adventurer named Nes was the founder of the red wings. I don't think it's right that they just made a random person to ascend to the throne of the King. Look at him, he doesn't look top strong, unlike Jack over there. ” A blue sash knight said.

However, the other knights promptly came to Ray's defence. They had all seen what Ray had done for each training area while the blue knights were the only ones who had no clue.

”Are you kidding me? He's probably just as strong as Wilfred and Sir K. He was also friends with all the other master knights and even beat Harry in a duel.”

This piece of information started to spread, and all of the things that Ray had done earlier in the day was swiftly passed around.

Although, as the word travelled within the circle, the rumours started to get a little exaggerated.

”Did you hear? King Ray defeated all of the white knights at the same time while toying with Harry by using only his finger.”

While all of the students were busy talking about Ray, Slyvia looked at him and said, ”Go on, Ray, speak to them. In the future, they will be your people. They will be fighting for this land and lace you created for them.”

After witnessing and hearing about what Ray had done, they all thought their King was quite an amazing person. There were also those who didn't believe the rumours were true, but this would always be the case until they're able to sed Ray perform in person.

But doing so, Ray had gained a few fans from the students, and one of those was Flynn. ”Speech, Speech, Speech!” Flynn started to chant with excitement, and soon many of the others joined in.

”Looks like they're calling you,” said Slyvia.

Ray stood up from his seat, and the audience members cheered. He then walked out from the side to the front of the table, and looked at all the students in front of him, and in that moment, they had gone silent.
