Chapter 1759 Solemn Decision

This issue, however, was a major one. Nox must consider every single possibility if he wanted to keep this momentum. His soldiers' lives were on the line. The fate of the people was at stake.

He could not afford to make a single mistake. Otherwise, his people would be dragged into war.

"So that's why you always look dour, emperor. I knew this was a troublesome job. I very much prefer flying solo." This was why Nox refused to be crowned Defender Lord. His previous position had no administrative duties. All he had to do was fight.

He had the emperor dealing with all the red tape and administrative duties behind the scenes. All he had to do was fight. Alas, a Defender Lord would hold both administrative and military power.

They would have to deal with all the unpleasant, political stuff cropping up like mushrooms after a rain. Nox had a headache just thinking about it.

Quilo was in his palace, sleep eluding him. He was keeping an eye on Nox's situation. Although he was in the palace

    Nox bowed to Quilo solemnly and made his way to the airport, not looking back at all. "Nox…" Quilo saw Nox off, tears welling up in his eyes. They weren't just king and subject. Quilo saw Nox as his own.Someone sobbed in the darkness. Quilo waved his hand, and the barrier that could block divine sense shrank back into the artifact. Queenie came out of her hiding spot. She was a mess of tears.She knew Nox was going to war so Faeast could remain at peace. He could not afford to be distracted, not even for her. He had to put his love aside for this."I wish I never knew him, Your Majesty. I'm useless. I can't even help him. I'm deadweight! And now you have to stay back because of me." Queenie was bawling.She was trash compared to all the other ladies vying for his attention."My dear Queenie, I've lived long enough and seen my fair share of things. You might not understand it now, but someday wisdom will come to you. Romance does get in the way of big things sometimes, but think a

    An abandoned mountain stood a few hundred miles away from Imperia. Although it was a nameless mountain, a hundred Hidden Dragon Guards and Shadow Division members were gathered there. They were solemn. Their eyes were filled with tears and red with rage. The one in the lead was Jaculus.Before Nox took his leave, he entrusted Imperia's Shadow Division members to him. The only order he left for Jaculus was to keep the emperor safe. Jaculus knew the emperor only stayed in Imperia to keep things under control and Nox's remaining loved ones safe.The biggest threat was the escaped patriarch of Moste Magicke. The Hidden Dragon Guards had been working with the Shadow Division to track him down over the last three days. This was where their trail led to."Commander Riveria, the lord gave us his orders. He wanted these people to give up the chase, but they disobeyed him…" A Shadow Division captain clenched his teeth.The people gathered here were furious and sorrowful because their comra

    Still, there was a frown on Verdando's face as he saw the incoming aircraft. Although he could kill these warriors easily, he was still wary of those who did not fear death. That wariness also extended to the unfeeling, uncaring metal wave of weapons.Humanity has its limits. He could still remember how a tactical missile destroyed his sect. If he hadn't escaped fast enough, he'd be a spot of grime on the ground now. "It's a good thing Imperia's right in front of me. You wouldn't dare fire at the city."Verdando sneered and cast his technique to disappear.Back in the palace, Quilo was informed of the news of Verdando being found.Douglas was the one giving the report, saying urgently, "Guard Five is stopping him as hard as they can, but the latest intel is that he disappeared after destroying an HBCT. The experts are on their way. Shadow Division and the Hidden Dragon Guards are making their move…" His expression turned darker the longer he spoke.Only idiots would face these w

    The alarm's scream stunned the commanders. They wondered what was going on."Something's moving at impossible speeds! It's gone from the radar!""Then amp up the radar's power!"The plane's staff's voices came from the comms. The protective aircraft was in position, ready to shield the carrier."What the hell? The Sect Alliance got themselves a tactical missile? Shit, I'll shoot everyone in the military dead if that's true!" Bear cursed."Calm down. The emperor's doing his job. The Hidden Dragon Guards are keeping a close eye on the military's top dogs. This would never happen."Bard continued, "This is probably something foreign forces did. Still, we're deep in Faeast. They couldn't have concocted something that could fool the satellite surveillance. Even if they could, that would mean that they have killed a high-ranking politician. It would mean war."Keith confirmed that hypothesis as the Defense Ministry found no anomaly."Calm down, it's neither the Sect Alliance nor th

    "You knew the guards couldn't stop me, so you told them to leave. I do wonder why you didn't go with them, though. If you'd gone into the underground chamber, not even someone of my caliber could find you easily."Verdando approached the emperor, hands behind his back. He stopped before the golden staircase and bowed mockingly.Quilo slowly stood up and unsheathed his sword. "The guards will only die if they join this battle. You know why I stayed. You only came to me because you knew I wouldn't," said Quilo softly.The Blade of the Emperor stood on the staircase. Quilo put both hands on the hilt, standing before Verdando like a mountain. He looked solemn yet inscrutable and majestic."Hm, I feel pressure coming off you. I expected no less from the emperor. Your aura is strong," Verdando praised, nodding his head. He then scanned the chamber. "So, this is the chamber of the emperor. It has stood for a thousand years and witnessed three dynasties. Even now, it still stands."Verd

    One attack and the strongest emperor was showing signs of defeat. A Supreme was powerful beyond imagination. Quilo knew he was no match for this man long before the fight had begun.He had time to escape, yet he insisted on fighting the enemy. He was the ruler of Faeast. He was the one who inherited the will of this nation's people. They acknowledged him as emperor, as heir to the will of the great unification. He couldn't leave without a fight."Even a scholar will die for honor. A ruler must set a better example.""And that's what I was counting on. You'll lose your life in exchange for honor, but I won't kill you. Work with us. There is no true emperor in Faeast. Heroes only exist in stories. Stories written by the victors."He persuaded, "Don't you see? It's a dog-eat-dog world. Working hard will never get you anywhere. Think of the greater good. The great unification can only happen when billions die. Only a decentralized rulership can keep Faeast peaceful for a long, long tim

    'So, everything I've worked for would come to nothing?' Quilo thought with despair. When Verdando told him the elders he'd been counting on were killed, it hit him hard. He spewed blood and almost lost his balance.At the same time, someone in the royal bunker started to worry. Nineve felt her heart race as panic rose. "What's going on? I feel restless. Hey, where's my father? You said he'd come soon enough. Where is he?" She grabbed one of the royal generals."I don't know. The decree told me to escort you to the bunker, and they told me nothing else." the general said. Alas, he let slip something important in his panic."What? Me? Only me?" Nineve was stunned. The decree she got talked about all royal family members. She realized what was going on. "Something very wrong has happened."She wanted to leave, but all the Forbidden Army soldiers were quick to stop her. "Your Highness!""Out of my way!" Nineve couldn't break through the lines, nor could she tell them to step away. She

    Queenie had gone missing. Nox's lady was in trouble. Douglas was in the underground chamber, filled with worry. That girl went missing in the blink of an eye. The Forbidden Army searched the whole palace, but they couldn't find her.Douglas had no choice but to send out a message to everyone in Imperia to find her. The troops that were going to gather at the palace were thrown into disarray. They had no idea if they should search for Queenie or help the emperor.Quilo wasn't aware of any of this. He didn't have the strength to care about anything but the battle before him. Verdando's speech wore his conviction out like sandpaper, and his righteous energy lost its luster."There's no future in what you're doing. There is no shame in surrendering. History is written by the victors and survivors. Your legacy means nothing if you're dead. Tell me where Nox's woman is, and I will leave. No one will know what happened here."Verdando continued, "Your people will only know how you shatter

    Back in the regular guards' camp, Harley spat blood. He was lying in the ruins of a building, his body covered in slash marks. His Celestial technique was broken. This man was leagues above him. Celestial techniques were useless. The swordsman was too powerful."Magic Mountain's techniques? But their swordsmen are on good terms with the lord!" Harley stared at the man in green. He defeated Harley using Magic Mountain's techniques.Magic Mountain and Mystia had always been at loggerheads. They had slain many demons and monsters throughout the years, and their swordsmanship was a bane for the cultivators."I wonder how Nox managed to make a Mystian like you loyal to him. Yes, I am a Magic Mountain swordsman. Was, to be honest. I was kicked out a hundred years ago. My master said my heart is astray. How laughable. I have killed demons over ninety years, and hundreds of them have died to my blade! My heart is not astray!"Your sins are innumerable, Harley, and you must be slain! White

    All of a sudden, the soldiers let go of their weapons. They had a look of fanaticism on their faces as they throttled themselves to death. The party went on, and the bluebloods enjoyed every moment, oblivious to the incoming danger.The monk passed through the residence smoothly, with all the soldiers and guards throttling themselves to death. Suddenly, everyone noticed a monk in red robes in the party hall. The drunk guests thought this was an event arranged by Atlas."We have a monk here. Wonder what kind of show you're presenting," a portly rich man joked, laughing loudly."Show? I am the leader of an evil sect. No show, but I do have a scripture to share. The government calls my sect evil, and they claim the monks are agents of darkness. You are not much better yourself. Omitofo."The old monk chanted once more, and the look on everyone's faces changed. Some knelt and cried their hearts out. Some groveled and didn't even notice that their heads were bleeding. They talked about

    Back in his residence, Atlas called a feast and invited the bluebloods of Imperia. He was glowing during the event and could never be happier. He used to be a declining aristocrat with nothing but the title of nobility.However, his luck turned for the better when he got older. He followed Nox into battle at Heaven's Cage, Vertolt, and Winterosch, making him a true lord. The Limerents controlled the nation, and he was a prince. He could even have some power over the nation or at least be one of the top dogs in Faeast.If Nox became emperor, then all the better. Perhaps he could be a more intimate part of the royal family. He drank to his heart's content and partied with the most desired people in Imperia. Nothing could be better."Life is short, people. Drink!"…The Ice Temple's vice-Lord was in the regular guards' encampment. This was a critical junction, and yet Atlas wasn't at his post. Instead, he was having a party. The vice-Lord had a bad feeling about this, but he had no p

    Harley sneered, having nothing but disdain for Atlas. "I can't believe the master would employ a shithead like you."Atlas laughed. "You think you're so high and mighty, but you're also Lord Nox's lapdog now. I am his subordinate, and we have a close relationship. I'm also the uncle of the emperor. That makes me Lord Nox's great-uncle," bragged Atlas."Dumbass. Just do your fucking job. Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise told me the Mousses might try something," Harley cursed.The mention of the Mousses made Atlas panic, but he calmed himself down and snored. "The Mousses? They won't dare do anything when I'm here. If they show up, I'll kick their ass! I command thirty thousand units. If they come to Imperia, it'll be the last thing they see!" Atlas was confident.Harley was speechless. 'My word, how can he be such a braggart?'With thirty thousand Nox Army units in Imperia, combined with the Forbidden Army, the regular guards, and 200 thousand elites protecting Imperia, nothing co

    Vermilion Bird said, "Azure Dragon used to be an Advanced Eight Gates. After the Mousses had him under their control, he became a Supreme. Judging by these photos, he's gotten more powerful since then."'More powerful?' Nineve knew how the cultivators were ranked. Top Legend Realms were another kind of life form entirely. In Faeast, a Supreme could be made a lord. An undefeatable Supreme would be made a ruler. A Sovereign was made every five hundred years, while a ruler was made every century.Supremes appeared once every decade or so. "I don't get it. You three obviously found some power source, and with Nox's help, you leveled up. Azure Dragon only has the Mousses. How'd he level up so fast?"If the Mousses were so powerful, they wouldn't have to resort to assassinations or betrayals."Not the Mousses. It's all Azure Dragon. He's our captain. He's a very talented and cunning man. Emphasis on talent. He's so strong that not even three of us can compare to him, combined. The only g

    Elizabeth said nothing but went red and hung her head low, causing Black Tortoise to panic."Uh oh. If you want him, you'll have to fight for him. That's all I can say, but the lord does think highly of you." He laughed."Shut it, Black Tortoise. You're talking nonsense here!" Vermilion Bird snapped. "See you, Your Majesty." She then took Black Tortoise and left the room quickly. They had work to do.The duo led most of the Shadow Division members back to Faeast. After the incident of Brundela, Faeast's fate was going strong, and the people were excited. However, beneath that excitement was unseen danger.Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise came back to Northstate's governor-general's place and met up with Nineve. Black Tortoise said solemnly, "What happened, Your Highness? We need the details."Nineve looked exhausted, and there were dark circles under her eyes. She had been working hard in Nox's absence. "Honestly, Atlas… I mean, the Defender of the Lord hasn't been pulling his we

    Douglas worked through the night for the negotiation."One, you must apologize for your invasion of Faeast. Two, you will return all stolen relics to us and pay for damages. Three, you will open trade with Faeast, and it must be complete and total. Those are our demands. We promise not to interfere with your nation's administration. Once the aid is administered, our fleet and army will retreat from Brundela."And one more thing. Faeast recognizes you as Brundela's new ruler." That was interesting. It also meant that Faeast could rescind that recognition at any time. Elizabeth had no choice. Without Faeast, Brundela would be gone. In the end, the nations arrived at an agreement.At midnight, they called a press conference. Faeast helped Eropa settle a war and avert a world disaster. That news took the world by storm. The Eastern dragon was rising, and none could stop it. It wouldn't take long for Faeast to return to the top.Brundela's case was over. After they gave enough aid, Ferg

    "They call you Great Generals?" the Ice Temple Lord laughed. "If I do want to betray him, how do you hope to stop me? You three had to take me on together, and it only ended in a draw. Now that I'm an Emperor and White Tiger is in a slumber, I can destroy you in a moment!"The Ice Temple Lord looked at Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise with disdain. Vermilion Bird's eyes were wide. She didn't care. She would fight the Temple Lord to the bitter end if she must.Black Tortoise was the calmer one, and he pulled Vermilion Bird back. "Calm down. Even if he wants to betray the lord, he at least would want to see the lord's body before he tries anything."Even a woman like Aphrodite lost this fight. He wouldn't dare try anything stupid."The Ice Temple Lord was still smug about being an Emperor, and now his celebration was cut short. Betraying Nox required a lot of courage. Nox's power terrified him. Even if he couldn't win the fight, Nox could at least come back safely.Besides, he only

    The formation Nox created with the Sovereign Seal was on the brink of destruction. Once the formation was gone, the Sovereigns and the spirits would return to dust. In this final moment, Brundela's Faeastian called their friends and family in their homeland and projected the modern-day Faeast onto the gigantic screen in the plaza.The spirits cried when they saw how developed their nation had become. The Sovereigns and the rulers were meticulous people. They used to rule over a unified nation, so they knew how hard it was to create a dynasty. Every dynasty would have its peak and nadir.Every time a dynasty was on a decline, Faeast would be in danger. They didn't talk about the truth behind that video, of course. They admired the beautiful land of Faeast as they waited for their final moment to arrive."The hardest and darkest moment is behind us, sirs. Faeast has me now. You may rest in peace.
