In order not to lose the word, our protagonist Su Chen successfully persuaded the old king to bow instead of kneeling and kowtowing.
"Wow!"
"This young man from the East is too courageous!"
"Yeah, how dare you not kneel when you see His Majesty the King?"
"Could it be that you want to be executed?"
"Fortunately, His Majesty is magnanimous!"
"Hey, the kingdom is now employing people, and His Majesty doesn't want to drive away such talents..."
"I heard that he defeated Grote in a few moves! Is it true?"
"It's true! Magician Colin recorded it with a video crystal ball!"
imperial front.
Six or seven ministers discussed in succession. They were all discussing Su Chen.
There was also a holy woman in a gold-trimmed gauze dress, standing by the throne, looking at him blushingly. A pair of beautiful eyes full of surprise and joy.
This holy woman is Galen's younger sister, Lux.
On the way over, Galen told him that because of his outstanding military achievements, His Majesty the King specially named Lux the Princess of Radiance. The status is equal to that of a royal princess.
This martial arts competition was also organized by the old king, because Lacus is already nineteen years old this year, and if she doesn't get married, she will become a leftover woman.
Incidentally.
In Runeterra, it is generally accepted that a woman becomes an adult at the age of 16.
"Su Chen."
"I remember your name."
The old king had a pleasant face, and seemed to be very interested in Su Chen, "When I defeat Noxus and unify Valoran, I will definitely send an ambassador to the Eastern Continent you mentioned!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"The people of the Eastern Kingdom will definitely welcome you very much."
Su Chen placed his right fist in front of his chest and performed a knightly salute.
It seems that Runeterra is still an uncivilized and ignorant world, and they don't even know the concept of the earth... Is Ionia to the east of Valoran, and Demacia to the east of Ionia?
He smiled kindly.
The old king turned to ask Lux next to him:
"If I remember correctly, it was this warrior Su Chen who broke the seal of the fallen angel for you three months ago, right?"
"Hehe. Lacus, if you want, I will immediately order to hold a grand wedding for you!"
"How about it?"
Lux didn't answer right away.
She first looked at Su Chen, then at her brother Galen, and finally returned her eyes to the old king, and bowed softly, "Your Majesty..."
"I do not like him."
"I don't want to marry him."
As soon as the words came out.
The ministers below all smiled wryly and shook their heads.
Her Royal Highness's vision is too high. Looks like I won't be able to get married again this year...
"Why?"
The old king frowned, seemingly displeased, "Lax, do you dislike Su Chen's humble origin and no title?"
"It's simple, as long as you are engaged, I will immediately make him a Marquis!"
Wow!
The ministers are all blown up!
Even Galen raised his eyebrows!
Immediately seal the Marquis!
Your Majesty loves His Highness Lacus so much!
You know, Baron. Viscount, earl, marquis, duke—the fifth rank of nobility in the kingdom, the marquis is second only to the duke!
The entire Demacia Kingdom, all the reigning marquises add up. Never more than a hundred!
"No!"
"Your Majesty, please don't do this!"
Lacus shook her head, "Warrior Su Chen is very nice, but I don't like him! I... I'm just pure and have no feelings for him!"
Hear this sentence.
Su Chen couldn't help being surprised.
As far as his appearance, temperament, and strength, he doesn't feel like me?
Really, little sister!
Don't lie to yourself!
"Lax!"
"Don't be capricious!"
The old king stomped his scepter lightly, with a hint of anger in his voice. "You are nineteen years old!"
"Back then, your father died to protect me, and I always treated you as my own daughter. This year, you must marry!"
Lacus bit her cherry lip, wanting to resist. But seeing the displeasure on His Majesty's face, he didn't dare.
They had no choice but to look to Su Chen and Galen for help.
Galen's face was not very good.
On Su Chen's side, he just received a mission.
"Ding!"
"Mission release - [Conferment]!"
"Have you ever yearned for a medieval world? Swords and magic, knights and elves, alchemy and potions!"
"Nobles, above ordinary people, enjoy privileges!"
"This is the first step to political success!"
"Please host in any of the six kingdoms of Runeterra, no matter what means you use, be knighted by the king!"
"The higher the title level, the higher the reward!"
"Do you accept this mission?"
"yesorno?"
Su Chen was stunned for a second.
Ecstasy erupted in his eyes!
The system released the task again, cool!
There is no reward specified in this [Jeuneship] quest. But the higher the rank, the richer the rewards!
In case the canonization of the duke...
"wipe!"
"What are you thinking?"
"How can it be so easy to be a duke?"
Su Chen tapped his head.
The duke is the highest title, extremely honorable, as long as one generation is enshrined, the title can be inherited by the descendants, just like the blood of Emperor Dou. It can bless grandson Yinzi.
Of course, the premise is not to treason, not to cause trouble.
Even if the old king wanted to marry Lux again, he would not be so crazy.
"Ahem!"
See the stalemate in the atmosphere.
Su Chen coughed twice, saluted and said:
"His Majesty."
"Your Majesty has long admired Her Majesty Lacus. Three months ago, Her Majesty fell under a curse. When her life was dying, I was the one who cast a spell to save her at the cost of ten years of life! My heart for Your Majesty is as good as the sun and the moon! "
"Therefore, please give me your majesty's gift, betrothing your highness to me!"
"I, Su Chen, will definitely treat her well!"
"You will live up to His Majesty's expectations!"
witty!
After Su Chen finished speaking, many ministers cast appreciative glances at him.
Only a fool would miss this kind of good opportunity to reach the sky in one step!
"Su Chen?!"
"you!"
Lacus stared at Su Chen angrily with her beautiful eyes wide open.
This guy!
Don't you know that Ali has always liked him?
He...he is going to abandon Ari for the sake of his position as marquis! ?
This scumbag!
The princess really misjudged him!
Lux was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet!
During these three months at Zhanzheng College, she and Ari lived and ate together, and they had already become good girlfriends who talked about everything.
She naturally knows how much Ari misses Su Chen. She goes to class, eats, and practices magic. She loses her mind from time to time and calls Su Chen in her sleep in the middle of the night...
But this scumbag...
"His Majesty!"
"Please help me and Your Highness Lux!"
Su Chen repeated it again.
His expression was full of sincerity.
The old king's face was already full of smiles, "Okay!"
"Warrior Su Chen, I think you are destined to be very close to Lacus!"
"Galen, what's your opinion?"
He asked Galen, who had never said a word, and the latter only said "It's all up to His Majesty", which almost made Lux vomit blood!
"good!"
The old king nodded and made a final decision:
"Thirty years ago, when the late king was in power, there was a strong man named Lucifer in the kingdom. He was invincible and invincible. He once bloodbathed the thousand-man army of Noxus overnight!"
"Unfortunately, in the end, he was jointly assassinated by the enemy masters!"
"Su Chen warrior!"
"I will make you the Marquis of Lucifer today, and I hope you will enjoy your life and serve the country."
"Of course, treat my Lux well."
