"I'm envious. How can I not be envious?"
But what’s the use of just envying
[“If you want, you can also have a status like hers, no—a status that is ten or a hundred times higher than hers!”]
"You mean."
[“That’s right! You———”
Herbert's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Yes, I can also join the Church of God!"
"Join first, then keep improving in it. One day I will be able to reach a higher position than her!"
Teacher, I really want to make progress.
"Um?"]
[“Right? What’s right? No, no!”]
Nenasha angrily rejected Herbert's dangerous idea and said loudly: ["Listen to me! What I mean is that you can also form the Church of the Gods!"]
"Oh! So that's what you mean."
Herbert blinked, nodded in understanding, and then fell into deep thought.
"If you put it that way, it's true! Yes, I can do it myself."
That makes sense.
Why believe in that bullshit Tathagata? I’d rather do it myself!
If he could create a divine church with his own hands, he would naturally become its supreme leader.
“But there’s a problem.”
Yes, there is actually one last question, the most crucial one!
[“Hmm? What’s the problem?”]
Herbert looked serious, frowning, and said in a deep voice: "But I don't want to be deified? No, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that I can't do it in a short time-"
I didn’t go to Tsinghua University or Peking University in my previous life. Is that because I didn’t want to
Because I really can’t do it!
["ah???"]
The god of harmony was furious.
[“Me! Me! Of course I’m talking about me!!!”
[“When I am free, I can bless you! I can let you serve me!”]
Herbert smiled slightly as he listened to his roar in his mind.
He was not Valentina, so he certainly knew what Nenasha meant by this.
But he just felt like being a masochist and he had to tease Nenasha to feel comfortable.
Now—..It feels great.
"hehe."
Just as he was laughing happily, Valentina suddenly put her face in front of him and asked suspiciously: "Huh
You smiled at me, are you interested in me?"
Interesting? What's interesting
Wait, why is your smile so dangerous
Do you want to...
"What? You—..."
After Miss Hungry Dragon asked the question, she didn't even give him a chance to reply and just nodded immediately.
"Okay! I agree."
Having said that, she stretched out her sinful little claws towards Herbert.
Herbert:
"Wait a minute, we have something important to do - let go! Don't take my clothes off!"
Herbert tried to raise his right hand, but Valentina held it down.
“No pause!”
"Wait, wait, get out of here!"
When night falls completely and the full moon hangs high in the sky.
Herbert finally arrived at the king's bedroom.
Met the King, who had legendary strength but looked as weak as a stick at the moment.
"Herbert? Haha, you're finally here, ahem."
"Come on, come on, cough!"
"Come sit next to me..."
Chapter 148 The King of Storms (1/5)
"His Majesty."
Herbert did not sit over immediately. He looked at the king on the bed and was silent for a moment.
Reinhard Olivia is the current king of the Frost Crystal Kingdom, the seventh King Lionheart.
The Frost Crystal royal family is descended from dragon slayers - this is not just a legend to consolidate their rule.
Thousands of years ago, the warrior King Lionheart I, who was not yet a king at the time, successfully killed a legendary peak-level frost dragon with the assistance of the first Grand Duke Silverwing and others.
After the battle, he bathed in dragon blood, ate raw dragon hearts, eyes, and brains, and eventually succeeded in cleansing his bloodline, becoming a powerful dragon-blood warrior.
He gained the terrifying strength and powerful physique of the Frost Dragon, as well as some special abilities related to spells.
The legends of many kingdoms record the first king demonstrating his frost magic at banquets, such as chilling wine with his palms or adding ice cubes to the wine.
In order to commemorate his achievement of slaying the dragon and the special abilities he gained from the dragon, he named this country after the dragon's title "Frost Crystal".
As descendants of King Lionheart I, although his descendants lost their spell-like abilities, they successfully inherited the power of their bloodline and produced many powerful warriors.
So, to some extent, the Frost Crystal Royal Family can actually be a family of dragon blood warriors—----ahem!
The same is true for this generation of king, who has been regarded as the perfect successor to the first king since he was a child.
Not only does he look like a spitting image of him, but he also displays similar talents to the first king!
He achieved breakthrough to the legendary level at a young age and became the youngest legendary warrior in the history of the Frost Crystal Kingdom, even two years earlier than the first king.
But just when everyone thought that he was about to devote himself to training to become the strongest in the kingdom and inherit the name of the dragon slayer to protect the country, he made a surprising decision.
Reinhardt chose to go out and have an adventure.
He left the Frost Crystal Kingdom alone and traveled around the world for four years.
When he returned, he was holding a baby girl in his arms, who later became Princess Filia.
Later, he successfully inherited the throne, practiced in the kingdom, and began to live a secluded life.
The previous stories were what Herbert heard from other people, and the latter ones were what he saw with his own eyes.
In his impression, Reinhardt was not a high and mighty king, but a cheerful and talkative
An elder who is strong but not scary.
Although he knew nothing about art, he was willing to listen to Herbert's description of his vague feelings.
When he was young, he would often play with himself and Filia.
And now...
Herbert even felt that he saw a zombie lying on the bed.
The originally dazzling golden hair became dry and yellow, and the eye sockets were deeply sunken, making the eyeballs protrude.
His muscles have atrophied, his body is covered with wrinkles, and his weight is probably not even half of what it used to be. He has become nothing more than skin and bones.
"Why don't you come over? Haha, I remember when you were little you loved sitting on my lap and listening to my stories.
Ahem—"
But even though he had become like this, and death seemed to have strangled him by the throat, Herbert still did not feel any negative emotions such as decadence from him.
He was still as confident as when he saw him as a child.
The strong core of him is supporting him in the final fight with the God of Death, even defying the threat of death.
"..—·Your Majesty, I am no longer a child."
After a moment's silence, Herbert gave a bitter smile, but still sat obediently next to King Reinhardt. He turned his head to look at this once strong and powerful man, who was now so ill and blind, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The most sad thing is to see a hero grow old and a beauty turn gray.
Herbert sighed in his heart, but Reinhardt on the other side looked at him and was very satisfied.
"Haha! You have indeed grown up, but in front of us, you, ahem, are still children!"
Compared to the elegant and weak boy in the past, he looks more like a man now.
"You performed very well this time."
He raised his hand with difficulty, patted Herbert on the shoulder, and said with emotion:
"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have woken up yet, and this country would have completely fallen into Terrence's hands..."
But after waking up and fully understanding what had happened before, he felt a little scared.
Even though Reinhardt was a powerful warrior, there was no way to prevent the ruthless betrayal from his loved ones.
The blade that pierces the back is often the sharpest.
The closer someone is to you, the crazier they become when they betray you.
Because of guilt, because of uneasiness, because of fear - under all kinds of torment, they will do everything they can to completely eliminate the root causes that make them uneasy.
Only when that person dies will they feel completely at ease.
If the giant dragon had not appeared and awakened him from his slumber, Reinhardt would have died in his dream in the most humiliating way at the hands of his own offspring.
“For this, I am very grateful.”
After saying this, Reinhardt frowned and stared at Herbert with sharp eyes.
"But your provocation of the nobles -" - do you really know what you are doing
"You are putting the kingdom in danger. You are putting countless lives in danger!"
Even though he was weak and at the end of his strength, Reinhardt's voice was still full of terrifying power, making the temperature of the entire bedroom become chilly.
"You! What on earth are you doing!?"
Rumble - the sound of thunder was heard outside the window, and faintly one could feel the sound of a storm gathering above the royal city.
The storm is coming.
But Herbert knew that this weather change was not caused by nature, but a miracle that could be achieved by human power.
Plaque-
The windows of the bedroom were blown open by the strong wind, and the surging cold wind rushed in with the biting cold, blowing the furnishings in the entire room into disarray.
The flickering candlelight went out, the magic lampstand was blown to pieces by the strong wind, and the room fell into darkness.
!
Thunder roared, illuminating the faces of the two people in the darkness.
storm.
Reinhardt's legendary ability is to bring about a storm!
