Hail the King Chapter 528: How About Joining Us?

Chapter 528: How About Joining Us?
“Your Majesty, the Queen heard that many warriors and soldiers were injured while protecting her. Therefore, she went to the military camp with Emma and the four pets to thank them.”
This maid named Autumn was one of the girls who was gifted to Fei by the big forces in St. Petersburg during the competition between the affiliated kingdoms.
She had been with Fei and Angela for a while, and she had joined the Chambord Kingdom by getting residency there. She knew this easy-going king very well. She went from the initial timidity to the casualness. Since she was used to the chill atmosphere at Chambord, she wasn’t scared of Fei. Instead, like a girl who was looking at a hero, she answered Fei brightly.
Since Autumn was adoring and admiring him, Fei felt pretty good about himself.
He nodded and smiled.
After ten days of sleeping, it was good for Angela to go outside and walk around in the sun.
Then, Fei suddenly thought of people such as Emperor Yassin, Domenech, and Hazel Bank who were still inside the level 36 region of the Mythical Palace. In order to save his lovers as soon as possible, Fei rushed back to Dual-Flags City.
“Did Emperor Yassin successfully kill that white-robed mage? Did the Undead Mage recover his full strength with the help of the abundant natural energies in that Small World?” Fei thought.
The [Elemental Gates] could only be used once in 20 years, and Fei couldn’t enter that mysterious and magnificent Small World even if he wanted to. He could only wait now if he wanted to know the answers to the questions on his mind. Once the Mythical Gate closes, all the masters in the Mythical Palace would be ejected out of there.
Fei already got a lot from this trip.
First of all, he successfully purified the [Worldstone]. Then, he got his hands on the Sky Castle, the mysterious stone throne that had unique abilities, and that huge and strange pillar. At the moment, the throne and the pillar were both in Fei’s body. The former could be controlled and summoned by Fei, but the latter was non-responsive. Fei had no idea where this stone pillar that was broken by someone came from, and he didn’t know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.
As he was thinking about this mysterious stone pillar, he suddenly thought of the huge skeleton beside the Mythical Altar that disappeared after the altar was activated. He had an ominous feeling about it.
He had to find a time and explain all of this to Akara and Cain.
Out of everyone around him, only these two mad scientists could help him do the research and figure out the secrets.
As the King was thinking back to what he gained and lost from this trip, Torres walked in quickly and whispered into Fei’s ear.
“Huh? Did they recover this fast? Eh, let them in.”
“As you wish!”
After Torres walked out, a series of footsteps sounded.
Under Torres’s lead, three people wearing robes of the Holy Church walked into the building.
The person walking in the front was someone who was about 60 years old. However, his body was strong, and his vitality was on par with young people. His long and thick white hair wasn’t tied up, and he was holding onto a black wooden wand as he moved forward. His facial features were unique; he had thick brows and big eyes. Although the robe he was wearing looked ordinary, he was giving off a direct and righteous aura; it felt like he was a straight sword that would never bend in front of power and evil. Anyone who was seeing him for the first time would get a good impression of him.
Behind him, there was the young priest Jessie and the Holy Knight Alan who were saved by Fei.
The elder in the front was quite aggressive. He looked at Fei up and down, and a smile appeared on his face. He nodded and said, “It is an honor to meet you, Your Majesty. I’m the Right Deacon of Black-Cloth Shrine, Batistuta. Thank you for saving Jessie and Alan’s lives a few days earlier.”
Jessie and Alan quickly walked up and bowed at Fei to show their gratitude.
Alan wasn’t a part of Black-Cloth Shrine, but he somehow decided to take the forbidden action to join the shrine after this adventure. It was quite surprising.
“Right Deacon, you are being too polite.” Fei was shocked when he heard of the name ‘Black-Cloth Shrine.’ However, his face didn’t give anything away as he greeted them calmly.
After the incident with Priest Balesi, the Holy Church was already an ‘Imaginary Enemy’ in Fei’s head. As a result, he read up on a lot of books that talked about the history of the Holy Church. Therefore, he knew this famous shrine that once greatly influenced the Holy Church.
“I didn’t expect that Jessie is from Black-Cloth Shrine. Too mad…… If he is at any other shrine, he will get a great status with his age, power, and potential. Eh…… However, Black-Cloth Shrine sure has accumulations. When all other shrines are attacking it, it is still able to nurture such a talented genius like Jessie. Unfortunately, Pope Blatter and other shrines are going to continue to suppress it, and it is likely that this shrine is going to die off and become a part of the history.”
Fei thought to himself as he wondered why they were here.
It was clear that the three of them weren’t here just to thank him.
In Fei’s mind, even if people were going to come and thank him, it was going to be Jessie and Alan. This elder Batistuta’s arrival took him by surprise. Although he never heard of this person before, he could clearly sense the power that was hidden in this elder’s body. The thickness and volume of the Holy Power Batistuta had was enough to battle Fei’s strongest Barbarian Character.
It was evident that this elder was one of the few surviving core decision makers in Black-Cloth Shrine.
Since such a person came to visit Fei and declare his identity, Fei knew that there was more to it.
“It looks like Your Majesty know about our Black-Cloth Shrine?” As soon as this elder took a seat, he asked that question.
Afterward, he picked up the teacup that a maid served and took a sip. A surprised expression appeared on his face as he asked, “Huh? What is this water? It sure tastes good!”
He then chugged it down and laughed, “Nice! It is a little bitter at first, but it is a little sweet afterward! Such drink! If I’m not wrong, it is because of these few leaves in the water. Your Majesty, what are these unique leaves?”
This elder’s laughter was loud and clear. Like the bright sun in the sky, nothing was covered up or hidden.
“Just something I made when I was bored. I call it ‘tea.’ It is something that could help you concentrate a little. If Right Deacon likes it, you can take some when you leave,” Fei said proudly. He didn’t expect that a master liked something he made unintentionally outside of Chambord.
After a short pause, Fei continued, “You are right. Black-Cloth Shrine was one of the most prestigious and honorable shrines in the Holy Church, and everyone on the continent knows about it. I had read some good books on it.”
“Yeah, it once was. But now, all the prestige and honor are almost depleted……” A solemn expression appeared on Batistuta’s face. However, that expression only appeared for a brief second. He soon returned to his confident and straightforward self and asked with passion in his eyes, “I heard from Jessie that Your Majesty is a [God’s Favorite Child]? Are you willing to join our Black-Cloth Shrine and become our shrine’s [God’s Favorite Child]?”
As soon as he said that, Fei spat out the tea in his mouth.
The King didn’t expect this elder to say something this direct. It was shocking, to say the least.
Jessie, on the other hand, was shocked as well. He thought to himself, “Ah! Right Deacon really sent out the invitation! He invited the King of Chambord! God! Mr. Batistuta is sure crazy about finding a [God’s Favorite Child] for the shrine! He didn’t even ask any deep questions! Black-Cloth Shrine is now like a rat in the eyes of other members of the Holy Church. Why would the King of Chambord want to join such a run-down shrine?”
All three people of the Holy Church looked at Fei nervously.
(TL Note: I assume that there are the Right Deacon and the Left Deacon under the position of Bishop in the shrine. I could be wrong, but this is how I interpret this.)
