Lord of the Truth-Chapter 403 The Promised Day
Three weeks later-- the central continent-- in front of the Imperial City walls
"Attention!"
"HOOH!"
*faint tremor*
"The training today was as usual on how to cooperate on the battlefield. Engrave everything you have been trained on now in your memory. If a battle begins and I see one of you leaving this Lineup, I will rape him and his family to death! Is this understood?!"
"HOOOH!"
*faint tremor*
"Good, I seem to be clear. set in your place and prepare to leave as soon as His Majesty arrives!"
"HOOOOH!"
*Rumble*
-------------
Under the shade of an open tent - above the walls of the Imperial City
*whistling~* "Although I see this scene every day, I still get goosebumps every time. How does it feel to control this crowd, Alexander? And what is this vulgarity all about? Hehe."
Continental Ruler Alexander approached the tent and randomly sat down on one of the chairs, "Sigh~ How do I feel? I guess it is not much different from yours, Elizabeth, seeing around 4 million soldiers from different continents and the weakest one among them having a knight's strength... a sight that I never expect to see in my life.
Secondly, haha, no matter how high the level of the soldiers is, they will remain soldiers. Some vulgar words will calm their nerves and make them feel that they are closer to their commanders. This is a must. Anyone who has actual experience in leading soldiers will realize this, right, Your Highness?" Alexander houghed lightly and looked toward Caesar
"You are right, if the army commander is not close to his soldiers, he will be detached from them instead, and this is something you don't want on the battlefield, especially after the forces of the Four Continents and the forces of the Burton family finally merged to such a degree, in addition to--" Caesar had begun answering Alexander's question casually, when he finally noticed something, so he was interrupted himself and shouted, "Hey! Whom do you call *Your Highness*? I am just as His Majesty's subordinate as you are. Save that title for young Richard, he will come back to us soon enough."
Alexander laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Haha, don't be so humble, all the people of the world know how His Majesty treats you, I heard that there are fan clubs established around the world all centering around the young prince who accompanied the World Emperor throughout his journey."
"Right, even I'm starting to get jealous of a certain someone, I'm starting to wonder if was this really a punishment, or..." Elizabeth laughed slyly and then looked at Victoria who had been keeping her silent since she arrived
"I don't care how people see me, His Majesty was generous enough to save my life and give me the surname of Burton, and this grace I will repay with serving him til I die, I dare not attribute myself anymore to him, he is only my benefactor, I hope none of you here forget this again." Caesar ignored the blush on the face of Continental ruler Victoria next to him and declared loudly
"Alright, Alright! We will do as you wish, Alexander, stop bothering him..." Elizabeth looked furrowed at Alexander, who in turn shrugged in resignation, and then triumphantly returned to look at Caesar with a broad smile, "I shut him up. Do you like that, Your Highness?" ?
"Ah, yeah, that is what it should be, and---... WOOY!!!"
"HAHAHA"
Spreading stories and weaving legends about Emperor Robin and the details of his journey was not devoid of veneration for the people closest to him and especially the one he spent the most time with, the adopted son of the World Emperor, Caesar Burton.
And because he appears a lot to the masses, unlike his father, coupled with the fact that he fought side by side with several armies and has many heroic stories, legends spread about him faster even than Emperor Robin himself
It can even be said that his position on the planet Jura began to rise at a lightning speed until it approached the status of Robin himself, definitely surpassing the status of the Five Continental Rulers!
The one who was most affected by Caesar's new status was undoubtedly the person who accompanied him as his current shadow, Continental Ruler Victoria Frost...
After she was crying from the severity of the humiliation she felt by swearing to follow Caesar and take his permission before everything she did, after she returned to her home, lowering her head from the shame she brought to the history of her family... She became a source of envy because of his presence with her!
Rather, the people of the Water Continent boasted in front of the rest of the continents that Caesar Burton himself made their presidential palace a home and that he accompanies their continental ruler everywhere!!
Although this did not affect much the dependency relationship that Victoria swore, it made her current situation much easier for her, so that asking permission from Caesar every day was no longer as nauseating as before...
In fact, the only one who was not satisfied with this new situation was none other than Caesar himself!
When he would find people talking about this matter or hear someone calling him *Your Highness* or the son of the Lord, etc., he would get very angry and rebuke them to stop, saying that he was just a loyal follower of His Excellency and that he dare not be more than this 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
This reaction of his quickly spread throughout the world, preventing many from saying publicly that he is the son of the World Emperor, but it also earned their respect more and more. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
Now only a few of the higher-ups could joke with Caesar on this matter.
"Alright, younglings, there's no time for this, don't you feel the pressure of what is going on? Today, Planet Jura will take a huge step forward! Use the time to predict what we will find on that new planet and make countermeasures to preserve our lives there." Old Gu shook his head and nodded. He spoke while slowly rubbing his forehead, it was evident from the dark circles around his eyes that he hadn't tasted rest in quite some time.
"..I don't feel the pressure? Excitement almost kills me, old man. Being distracted by idle talk is better than dying waiting for His Majesty to show up.." Alexander spoke slowly while looking at his hands which did not stop trembling.
He lived his entire life increasing his strength and the strength of his army in the hope that a war would be waged against the other three empires.
Yes... He really hoped so!!
Although the main goal of any war is peace, and although strength is required to maintain peace... Even if there is peace in the world and you are strong enough, the day will come upon you and you will ask yourself: What do I do with this strength? Why do I have to get stronger?
The state of shaky peace and the cold war that has been dominating a planet for tens of thousands of years has sparked a state of thirst in the hearts of many!
Some of them are thirsty for more property and land, and some are just thirsty for blood!
"Haha, and I will not allow my Continental Ruler to die waiting." A voice came from far away, forcing everyone to pay attention to its source
