However, what was most eye-catching was his extremely thick, slightly curly black hair, which resembled a lion’s mane, casually draped over his shimmering shoulder armor.
This clearly curly hair was undoubtedly the same as that of Ariel, a member of the Coldflame Royal Family.
Furthermore, after observing for some time, Leo Ray had already known.
In this world, perhaps due to the various foreign races on the continent.
As such, whether it be the Coldflame Kingdom or the neighboring Saint Night Kingdom, the differences between the various ethnic groups were not very distinct, and they all lived together.
As a result, there was almost no difference in appearance between these Otherworldly Lords and the local indigenous people.
Therefore, the appearance of this sudden figure, which was similar to the Great Summer People, was naturally nothing unexpected.
What was most crucial was that Leo Ray had seen this familiar face before.
It had appeared in numerous colorful paintings done with magic pigments.
And each of those painting’s names included the three characters “Hero King”.
Based on the evidence above and the various hints gathered previously, the answer was already self-evident.
“Could Your Excellency be Hero King Caesar?”
When he thought of this, the alertness on Leo Ray’s face did not wane at all, and he asked with furrowed brows.
“That’s right, it is I.”
A voice permeated with a sense of antiquity responded. The middle-aged man on the throne smiled faintly, replying, “Welcome to my Hall of Kings.”
Listening to the calm and gentle voice from the other side, the coldness on Leo Ray’s face eased slightly, but the longsword in his hand still did not let go.
Although there was no sign of energy fluctuations around this Coldflame Hero King, he still gave off an unfathomable feeling.
Moreover, although he appeared as a solid entity, Leo Ray could clearly feel it.
The other party’s aura was very unusual, as if it were like Jasper Richardson, using some kind of secret technique to re-materialize his body.
“If that’s the case, why did you teleport me here alone? Compared to me, a stranger, surely you would want to see your descendants after several hundred years?”
At this point, Leo Ray’s brow furrowed once again, and his energy shield began to thicken once more.
On the other hand, Caesar was still sitting on the throne, smiling and saying, “Young visitor from the Otherworld, relax, I have been dead for centuries. What you see now is nothing but my energy body; it poses no threat to you.”
“What about those metal lions earlier?”
Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and asked.
“Ever since those goblins, masked men, and you lot appeared, I have been watching you.”
Caesar, sitting directly across from him, offered no concealment and immediately responded, “Those Sacred Lions were merely meant to help you clear out the trash. After all, among your team, there actually is a descendant of mine. However, you can also consider it a small test.”
As he said that, the clear sound of armor rubbing against armor could be heard.
Caesar stood up from the throne and began to walk down the stage, continuing to speak, “Of course, for someone like you who has a Tier 5 powerhouse at his service, none of this poses any problem. As for why I chose you to come here instead of my descendant…”
At this moment, Caesar stopped standing about five or six meters away from Leo Ray, shrugged his shoulders and said, “It’s just that my energy has been depleted severely over the past few centuries, and I can only teleport one person here.
So, due to a very important reason, I chose you, or rather, I had no choice but to choose you.”
Hearing Caesar’s straightforward answer, Leo Ray couldn’t help but be taken aback.
This hero king, who had been celebrated for hundreds of years throughout the entire Coldflame Kingdom, seemed even more down-to-earth than he had imagined.
“A very important reason?”
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray’s expression became puzzled, and he asked, “Speaking of which, how do you know that I am a visitor from the Otherworld?”
“Not only do I know you are a visitor from the Otherworld, I also know you come from the Earth’s Summer Realm.”
Caesar responded with a mysterious smile,
“You even know about the Earth and the Summer Realm?”
At this moment, Leo Ray’s puzzled expression became even more pronounced, and he exclaimed in surprise.
“Not just that, I also know…”
Next, Caesar smiled faintly and recited the glorious history of the Summer Realm as if listing treasure, leaving Leo Ray almost unable to believe his ears.
“I never thought that after all these years, I… I haven’t forgotten these things.”
In the end, even Caesar’s manner of speaking had changed completely, becoming almost identical to Leo Ray’s, giving off an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
At this moment, while shocked in his heart, Leo Ray’s brow furrowed, and he swiftly pondered, “That’s right, my previous guess about the name Dragon’s Lair, coupled with this guy’s familiarity with the history of the Summer Realm…”
After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray couldn’t help but be stunned, finally coming to a conclusion that was difficult to believe.
He hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, “Could it be… are you also from the Summer Realm?”
