Volume II The Fallen Light Chapter 103 The King of Knights
Korun, the imperial capital with a history of nearly a thousand years, has always been the largest city in the Batoria Empire and the most beautiful city.
The broad Danube River passes through the city. This river, which has been compared to the 'blue pearl necklace of the empire', and its dozens of branches give Korun a unique charm.
Corun is a city on the water. The entire city is divided into hundreds of small islands by crisscrossing the city, magnificent palaces, thousands of sculptures of lake fairies, and countless bridges with their own characteristics.
Colon's unique charm.
A bard once said, "It is better to see the city with your own eyes than to read the poems describing Korun seven times."
This is the feeling of Ekaterina and Elos when they first arrived in Khorun.
I didn't expect that the Kingdom of Knights would have such a beautiful place. It seems that the followers of the Lady of the Lake have no worse taste than the nobles of other empires.
Ekaterina and Elos had just entered the city and before they could appreciate the beautiful scenery of Korun, they were told that the Knight King Ryan was going to meet Ekaterina secretly. After all, Batoria and Albrex were in an alliance.
Now that Peter's succession to the throne has become a fact, both Cyril and Batoria have announced their congratulations to Peter, the new emperor of Albrex. Therefore, in order to take care of the face of the allies and the binding nature of the covenant, Knight King Ryan
Choose to meet Catherine secretly.
At this time, the magic clock pointed to nightfall, and Coulun was shrouded in darkness.
At night, Korun is like a bright pearl, emitting bright light, as if it is the most dazzling orb on the crown of the fairy in the lake.
Under the escort of the knights, the carriage crossed several magnificent long bridges and headed towards the southernmost location of the imperial capital of Corun, which is the direction of the imperial palace.
The palace was built on the mountain, in a well-proportioned manner, and the top of the mountain was artificially flattened. The main building of the palace is located here. It is a seventeen-story building.
Every window, every balcony, every colonnade is decorated with countless spiers and sculptures of the Lake Fairy. Every part of the building has both historical and artistic value, but when stacked together, it doesn’t look so impressive.
coordination.
Although Colon is extremely beautiful, the palace is a bit like a nouveau riche, piling up all the expensive things together without any taste at all.
Yekaterina thought to herself: "Sure enough, he has the taste of a knight, and does not have the artistic temperament of a great nobleman. It seems that the history of the rule of the knight class in Batoria is still a bit young, and the construction pattern of the palace is not worthy of Column.
this city."
Ekaterina's idea was correct.
Korun is a city built by the Toril Empire under the design of captured high elf craftsmen. It is naturally extremely beautiful.
The palace was built by the gentlemen themselves later on, so it was naturally not as ingenious and tasteful as the round and natural design of the high elves.
Eloise and Ekaterina were led by the palace ladies into the special dining room of the palace knight King Ryan.
When the pale golden light gradually became thicker and spread throughout the King of Knights' special dining room, pre-dinner snacks and aperitifs were already placed on the square dining table.
A total of ten maids stood aside carrying sterling silver plates, and several palace ladies in costumes were also waiting nearby, preparing to serve the emperor while he ate.
This extravagant and luxurious scene made Ekaterina a little crazy for a while. Charles III was also so extravagant and lustful at the time, but she didn't feel anything was wrong at the time.
At this time, the door of the restaurant was opened, and a graceful and luxurious woman walked into the restaurant surrounded by maids.
Upon seeing this, Knight King Ryan immediately introduced Ekaterina and Elos: "Ekaterina, this is your aunt, my Queen Elizabeth."
Catherine and Ilosu immediately stood up and saluted Queen Elizabeth.
"Please take a seat. Her Royal Highness the Princess is so beautiful. She is indeed the noblest pearl of Albrex."
"This is Illos. I heard that you are the youngest paladin on the continent. It is true that a hero comes from a young age."
Queen Elizabeth makes people feel as comfortable as a spring breeze with just a few words. Combined with her past tone of voice, this Queen of Batoria is not only beautiful and generous, but also has outstanding wisdom. She is worthy of being the virtuous wife of Knight King Ryan.
"Queen, please sit down, too." Ryan gestured.
After everyone sat down again, Ryan continued the topic:
"Ekaterina, you can feel free to stay in Batoria. Your treatment will be the same as Fox's."
Fox is the eldest son of Ryan and Elizabeth and the future successor to the Knight King.
"Elizabeth, you have full authority to arrange this matter and let Catherine stay in the Rose Manor Palace temporarily."
The noble and elegant Queen Elizabeth nodded to express her understanding.
"As for Peter's bounty for you in the underground world, I have heard about it. Don't worry, no force in Batoria dares to accept this bounty, otherwise I will uproot their stronghold!"
Speaking of this, Knight King Ryan was so domineering that no one doubted the strength of his words.
