Chapter 399 What's the matter with her?
With that final proclamation, King Richard raised His fist in a gesture of solidarity, his resolve unwavering as he prepared to lead his people into the known.
"Everyone, we are going to start moving towards the Forest of Never Return in a short while. I've prepared carriages and wagons to save us time because walking will take us approximately a week to get there."
"There are enough carriages for everyone; they are parked outside the city wall. Additionally, you are free to use your personal carriage if you are carrying one with you."
"Let's march into the Forest of Never Return and conclude this announcement here." King Richard's voice echoed around the stadium.
As the King's words echoed through the stadium, the crowd erupted into cheers, their voices rising in a thunderous cacophony of adulation. Murmurs of people rippled through the sea of spectators, a testament to their unwavering loyalty and respect for their beloved king.
"Long live, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty is great!"
"May his reign be prosperous and just!"
King Richard's heart swelled with gratitude at the outpouring of support from his people. With a humble nod, he raised his hand once more in acknowledgment, a silent gesture of appreciation for their unwavering devotion.
The stadium vibrated with the energy of their collective enthusiasm, a tangible reminder of the strength and unity of the kingdom under his rule.
As the crowd continued to cheer, King Richard gracefully exited the stadium's balcony with War General Valeria, leaving behind a wave of euphoria in his wake. As he departed, Crown Prince Daniel seized the moment to remark upon the king's popularity among his citizens.
"Your Majesty clearly has a way of endearing himself to his people," Crown Prince Daniel said, his tone tinged With admiration toward him.
War General Valeria stood beside Daniel and nodded in agreement, a smile playing at the corners of her lips.
"Indeed," She agreed, her voice carrying a weight Of respect for King Richard. "His leaders command both loyalty and admiration."
War General Valeria was none other than Crown Prince Daniel's aunt. She is the Elder sister of Emperor Victor Lionheart, the seventh emperor of the Lionheart Empire.
She was destined to take the throne, but she refused to reign since she loved to battle both people and powerful monsters. She also refused to get married because no guy in the entire empire could match her swordplay.
She is a formidable opponent who only considers fighting and winning against formidable foes. She spends months or even years honing her power in perilous forests.
Her body was extremely muscular from her intense training, and although most men find women with such powerful bodies ugly, the enormous scar on her face gave her a certain attractiveness.
The man also always tries to stay away from her because of her aggressive character, and the rumors that she would behead her pursuers just make them more afraid of her and make them shudder in her presence.
"It's not just popularity," Suddenly, Yuan's voice resounded throughout the chamber, making everyone turn their eyes at him. "King Richard has earned the respect of his people through his actions and decisions. It is undeniable that he always considers methods to improve the lives of his people, even though he has committed a few missteps."ReAd latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
Queen Matilda and Princess Fiona chimed in with a giggle, and Queen Matilda's eyes sparkling with affection for her husband.
"I see what you mean." Mireya gave Him a smile. "So let's move towards the gate; His Majesty has already made arrangements for a luxurious carriage to take us all there."
"No! We're going to ride in our own carriage." Yuan stated.
"You guys traveling in a carriage? When did you purchase it?" The fact that Yuan and his wives travel together makes it seem plausible that they own a carriage, which startled Mireya.
"When you take a look at our carriage, you'll be shocked; get ready for a surprise," Lily said, her tone lighthearted and a naughty look on her face.
'I wonder what surprises Lily is referring to.' Not only did Mireya find it intriguing, but Sylvia did too.
Anna giggled as she noticed the curious expressions on their faces and continued, "Now let's not waste our time by standing here idle."
"Very well. Then lead the way."
Yuan nodded and escorted them to Miss Zara's inn, where they had parked their carriage upon returning from their last mission.
A few minutes later, they arrived at the horse stable, where Yuan and his wives kept their horses. Their carriage was parked by the horse stable.
"Here we are," Julie murmured, smiling slightly and pointing her delicate finger at the carriage waiting beside the stable. "And that is our carriage. That's pretty fantastic, right?"
Mireya and Sylvia looked astonished when they saw Yuan's carriage. The carriage was tall, long, and wider than other carriages; they had never seen one this large before.
Not only that, but the carriage appeared to be strong enough to withstand powerful monster attacks, making it ideal for a large Hunter Party.
"Is this your carriage? Where did you buy this?" Mireya glanced at the carriage with a bewildered expression, as if shocked by its enormous size. "This thing is huge! It can easily accommodate over twenty people."
"It was a gift to Yuan from my mother," Rose replied with a pleased smile on her lips, recalling the occasion her mother gifted them with this carriage.
"This item will definitely grab a lot of attention from everyone," Sylvia mumbled with a sigh, her voice barely above a whisper.
A few minutes later, the carriage was ready to be driven, and Lily, as usual, instantly assumed her role as coachman and snatched the reins.
"Let's get in. Quickly!" Yuan shouted, prompting Mireya and Sylvia to rush inside the carriage, followed by his wives.
"Everything's ready! Let us move forward!" Yuan's voice echoed from inside the carriage. Lily flicked the reins quickly, causing the horses to drag the carriage ahead.
Yuan and his wives, accompanied by Mireya and Sylvia, arrived outside the City walls in their massive carriage which attracted a lot of attention.
As they approached, they beheld a scene of organized chaos; hundreds of carriages lined up in orderly rows, each one filled with individuals preparing for the mission ahead.
Soldiers hustled about, directing the flow of traffic and ensuring that everyone boarded their designated carriage efficiently. The air was thick with anticipation, a tangible sense of purpose driving the participants forward.
