Hail the King Chapter 741 - The Real Ruler

Chapter 741: The Real Ruler (Part One)
Luffy rubbed his chin and pondered like an adult. After a while, he suddenly thought of something and laughed, “My dad told me that your fist techniques are the most powerful! I want to learn that from you!”
“Fist Technique?” Fei smiled.
His previous [Sky Frost Fist] and his current [Invincible Emperor Fist] were both techniques that he was proud of, but these two techniques were powered by the insane physical strength of the barbarian and required the understanding of barbarian skills. Besides, Fei created these two techniques from the experiences he had while battling monsters and demons in Diablo World and the murderous spirit that he accumulated.
Other people didn’t have a golden finger like Diablo World, so they couldn’t learn and comprehend the two fist techniques that Fei created.
However, there were some ferocious fist techniques from the Mythical Era that were documented on [Demon King’s Sword]. If they were mastered, the power that one could unleash was insane as well.
Since Luffy was still young, it was the best time for him to start practicing combat techniques and cultivating. After all, children were able to pick up things much faster.
After making the decision, Fei nodded and agreed to Luffy’s request. This little guy got so excited that he jumped up and down.
Beside them, Laura also got a little emotional.
[One Sword]’s death was a massive blow to her. If it weren’t for Luffy who still needed her care, she might have committed suicide and followed her husband to the netherworld. The deep connection between them was hard for outsiders to understand.
Her husband was a great hero, so she also wanted their son to follow [One Sword]’s path and become someone who was looked up to by many people.
However, she was only [One Sword]’s wife who was from a poor family. She didn’t have any power, the support of an influential family, or a high status in the Xuelun Kingdom, so she wasn’t able to boost her son on the path of success.
However, tragedy turned into fortune, and her son got the legendary Imperial Martial Saint’s liking and was taken in as a disciple.
After thinking back to the fervent King and Queen of Xuelun, the envious servants, and the flattering that came from the influential figures of Zenit, Laura knew that her son’s life changed, and all of that was brought to them by this young and handsome Imperial Martial Saint.
After chatting with Luffy for a while, a member of Martial Saint Mountain came over and brought Laura and Luffy to their residence.
Fei sat down at the pavilion and waited.
Soon, a series of footsteps sounded.
Under the lead of Matri, that man with the silver mask and the nine masters behind him arrived at the pavilion.
As soon as that man with the silver mask got to the pavilion, he suddenly started to shiver. He quickened his steps, took off his mask, and kneeled as he said, “Your Majesty, I… I finally saw you again!”
The nine masters behind him were shocked.
They had followed this man with the mask for a while now, and they were used to their leader being calm and calculative even in front of powerful enemies. This was their first time seeing their leader acting this way.
“Could it be that our leader is afraid of the Imperial Martial Saint? Or… Why is our leader addressing the Imperial Martial Saint as Your Majesty? Could it be…”
These men who were able to follow the man with the silver mask this closely were all strong and intelligent characters, and they instantly thought everything through.
Chapter 741: The Real Ruler (Part Two)
From yesterday on, only the citizens of Chambord would address the Imperial Martial Saint as Your Majesty.
“Our leader is a Chambordian? Then… it means that the organization which we are working for is brought up by King Alexander of Chambord in the back?” they thought to themselves.
As if it were a response to their thoughts, a series of crisp laughter sounded from the pavilion.
The Imperial Martial Saint who was sitting on a stone chair in the pavilion stood up and walked out. Then, he patted their leader’s shoulder as he observed and said, “I haven’t seen you in almost a year, and that little mine slave in the Blackstone Fortress already turned into [Young Man] who is famous in St. Petersburg. Hahaha! Eh, you grew a bit taller, but you are still so thin as if you are malnourished. Hahaha, you are more handsome, and your strength improved. Great! Haha! Don’t be so formal! Today, we are just old friends instead of king and subordinate. Let’s sit down and chat!”
After that, Fei helped this man with the silver mask stand up.
This man was Modric, the youngster that Fei saved from the Blackstone Kingdom close to a year ago. Now, he was the leader of the most mysterious underground organization in the Capital.
Fei suddenly thought of something after walking a few steps forward with Modric. He turned around and looked at the nine men behind them as he laughed, “Haha, I’m a bit too excited and neglected you guys. You must be the [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] in our [Letter Office], right? You sure have impressive auras. Thank you for your hard work. Come in and sit down; don’t be so formal. Otherwise, the brothers and sisters in the [Letter Office] will say that I, the big boss, is not nice toward you all!”
The nine masters were all thrilled.
Right now, they were so excited that they couldn’t even get a word out.
Although they were called [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] in the underground world, and others were terrified of them, they were shy and nervous in front of the legendary Imperial Martial Saint. It looked like a bunch of kids were seeing their idol for the first time.
After all, Fei was too famous, his story was legendary, and his strength was mighty. Sun-Class Lords were like gods in the minds of the warriors of Zenit.
Before today, these nine masters all wondered who the real ruler of the [Letter Office] was in secret, just like all the other masters who were recruited by the [Letter Office] in this past year. After all, both of their leaders, [Young Man] and [Old Man], clearly stated that they weren’t the real ruler.
A lot of them thought that perhaps the Royal Family or the Imperial Military Headquarters was the mysterious ruler. After all, the [Letter Office] had a lot of resources and broad networks. In addition, the most powerful figure in the [Letter Office], [Bloody Yellow Cape], was way too strong.
Ordinary noble families and forces couldn’t fund an organization like this.
None of them expected this legendary king to be the real ruler of the organization.
The [Cold Blood Nine Eagle] looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other’s eyes.
The stronger the ruler was, the safer the [Letter Office] would be, and the further this organization could go.
With King Alexander of Chambord being the ruler, people like the [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] would be more protected.
In addition, Fei was a legendary warrior in the eyes of Zenitians, and he was the idol to many of them.
A lot of people were dreaming of serving under this great king, and the [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] didn’t expect this great fortune to land in their laps.
