I have broken my trust as a king, lost my people as a king, and lost my virtue as a human being. In the name of Roland Lan, the last descendant of Lan, I remove Fimul Kasuo from the position of king!"
The lion of the late king made a gesture, and with the help of the innate ability of this ancient ice monster who was proficient in sonic abilities, my roar was able to reach every corner of the city.
The bloody king lay on the ground, while I, extremely angry, announced my decision to the world on the high platform of the palace.
The parchment that had been prepared long ago was spread out, and each little-known crime was announced to the public. The magical magic trick made these blood-like words float in the air, making them particularly eye-catching!
"The first crime is cold-blooded and ruthless, vicious and parricide..."
........
"The fourteenth crime is extravagance, waste of wealth, sitting and watching the residents starve to death, while enjoying fine clothes and delicious food!"
"The fifteenth crime is colluding with foreign tribes, raising tigers to cause trouble, and luring wolves into the house..."
And the shocking crimes caused all the houses to open their windows and listen to the broadcast from the palace.
The more I read about it, the angrier I became. Looking at the dozens of items at the end, I didn’t even think about it anymore. I just tore it up and started to express my anger from the bottom of my heart.
"We will take care of these messes. The most important thing is that I am just unhappy because you are a coward! So, I want you to get out of your position as the King of Lan!"
"More than 1,700 years ago, the Northland was a rotten place, with freezing temperatures and overcrowded monsters. It had all the bad conditions we have now. But at that time, it was also a famous place of exile. All countries would send criminals here.
. They will be dead in less than three to five years. And if they are not dead, it will be even more troublesome. Without the ability to survive, most of them will turn into thugs wandering around and robbing."
"Natural disasters, man-made disasters, and animal disasters all came together. If not a hell on earth, the Northland at that time was not much different!"
Following Roland's description and comparing it to the current scene, the Lan tribe people vaguely guessed something.
"At that time, the late King Rivendette, who was deeply suffering in the North, unexpectedly obtained the power of the Ice Omen Contract. He was determined to build his own country on this barren land. He never said that he would serve the entire country.
Human society is so great at guarding borders, but he is just fed up with this precarious life, and he hopes to create a homeland of his own for himself and his people, a new homeland where he does not have to suffer the humiliation and oppression of foreigners."
As the sun rose, the roar resounded throughout the city, and after the citizens were briefly stunned, the name of Prince Roland and his thick voice made passers-by stop and listen patiently.
"At the beginning, everyone laughed at his overestimation and thought he was talking nonsense. After all, at that time, the last holy war had just ended. The centipede insects were dead and not stiff, the orcs were still strong, and the founding of the country here was equal to the orcs and humans
If you build a fortress on the front line of the battlefield, you will inevitably suffer a crazy backlash from the orcs. Moreover, he is a poor boy. He even has to find ways to feed himself and where to find resources and food to achieve self-sufficiency."
"But nothing is absolutely impossible in the world. Rivendette went through all the hardships and turned the impossible into a possibility, and built his own home in this frozen soil."
"There are no valuable specialties and wealth? He believed that there is no end to the road. He found his dwarf friends and organized an engineering team of the indigenous people. They dug inch by inch and shovel by shovel to dig out this barren land.
I found my own special product on the land - magic minerals."
"Is there no solid city defense to deal with external threats? On the border, he and his followers dug ravines and sentries with their hands, replaced the rangers who patrolled the border with their feet, and built the city wall with flesh and blood to protect their people.
!”
The young people who were just getting ready to start work, the women who were preparing rations for the family, and the elderly who were walking all stopped involuntarily when they heard about the past of the late king that was not recorded in the history books.
"Praise the late king! It is you who created a home for us so that we can live with dignity."
"'We admit that our lives are very hard, and we have nothing in our pockets. I can't guarantee whether things will change after following my struggle, but what I am sure of is that if we don't necessarily achieve anything,
You can't change anything if you don't do it, and you may not be able to change anything if you do it. But if you must starve to death or freeze to death in the cold and hunger,
I at least hope that I have done my last bit,' the late king said. Facing the harsh nature, there are no so-called miracles from heaven, no inexplicable expectations. All you can rely on is yourself and your partners. This is what is called
The will of Lan. The late king and those northerners who chose to follow him became the earliest Lan tribesmen."
"Unlike those ancient inherited ethnic groups, most of us are even mixed-race. But what distinguishes the Lan tribe or not is never the blood and skin color. As long as the northerners possess the will of Lan, they are the Lan tribe! These are the original words of the late king.
, which is also the truth that we descendants of Lan have always believed in!"
"One thousand four hundred and twenty-three years ago, it was the first time that the Kingdom of Lan was on the verge of destruction. The nightmare-like army of demons opened the door to the lower plane. Countless demons and demons rushed out of the door. One night,
The Kingdom of Lan was conquered by seventeen cities, and the capital Difende was in emergency. However, the Lan people did not despair. In order to protect their homeland, they made countless sacrifices and swept the demon back to their hometown."
"And the traces left behind at that time are still there, which are the Demonic Abyss of Anwemar. No, the most important trace and legacy left behind is the battle flag raised in the strong wind. At that time, the will of Lan
For the first time, the battle flag of Helan was stained with blood. We embarked on a completely different development path from the northern part of the Central Plains. Being humorless and boring has become our most obvious national characteristics. Our unyielding will and
Temperament has become our badge of pride."
The citizens silently looked at the Arashi battle flags that could be seen everywhere, and vaguely had a new understanding. Perhaps, it was not only the blood that was passed down, but also deeper secrets waiting to be discovered.
"One thousand one hundred and twenty-nine years ago, it was a melee that involved countless races. Orcs who did not dare to remain silent invaded the Northland. It was also a cruel winter of war that no one expected.
But that war lasted for twelve full years, and 1.37 million people of the Lan clan died in the battle. Countless people were injured, and all ten houses were empty. As the masters of the country, the royal family of Lan killed four kings in the battle.
seven
A member of the royal family. The youngest among them was only five years old. It was only twelve days before he succeeded to the throne and died in battle. Since then, it has become our tradition to use princes as generals, and every young child must be trained in swordsmanship and riding.
Technical training. Because no one knows whether he will be useful one day, and once he goes to the battlefield, regardless of gender or age, he has only two choices - either return victorious, or die gloriously!"
"And another new tradition is that during wars, the king who dies in battle will be on the prince's head. The prince who dies in battle will be on the princess's head, and the princess who dies in battle will be on the queen's head. The royal family will never be destroyed, and the resistance will not stop. From the beginning, on the battlefield, we, the Lanterns,
The bloodline will be captured at all, because our enemies all know that capture is meaningless. After all, there are too many seniors who have expressed their choice. Surrender? Be captured? How can we, the younger generation, afford this person? Find someone
It would be fine if he was hit by a pillar and killed."
"Seven hundred years ago, that sudden war was a dagger from the back. The sudden rise of the alien slave trade represented endless bloodshed, but it also represented endless wealth. But our Lan country blocked the way to get rich.
On the golden road, a large number of sophisticated weapons were actually transported to the hands of the orcs. After that cruel orc war, we ignored the dismayed country and directly declared war on several countries behind the scenes."
"The result? Huh, how could those weak Southerners be our cavalry who have experienced countless wars? When our knights drag those stupid corpses with crowns through the streets of various cities, no country dares to look down on us.
People of the Lan tribe. Of course, since then, our relations with other human countries have been bad, and we have never regretted it!"
"Time and time again, our troubled country has suffered countless plunders and wars, but unknowingly, we have become an 'ancient country' with a long history. This is undoubtedly a wonderful irony that is not surprising. We,
The unattended wildflowers survived the cold wind in the north, but the saplings that were carefully cared for in the southern greenhouses died inexplicably one by one."
"That time more than 300 years ago, I personally experienced it. The fierce and warlike orcs, the cunning and powerful demons, and the always treacherous human allies. All that our ancestors faced came together. Then
Every time, it was all my fault. We didn’t stand up, so we destroyed the country..."
There was a slight sob in the deep voice, and the silent pain and self-blame made people feel particularly heartbroken. However, the Lan people in the city would all repeat the same answer, and they had different opinions.
"No, our prince, you have done a great job, we are proud of you, please don't blame yourself. Moreover, we are not destroyed! As long as the people of Lan are still there, how can the Lan country not be able to recover."
"Yes, we have not perished! The will of Lan will never perish! But even if the Lan country has been destroyed, we Lan people have not perished! Do you know? When I learned that there was another Lan country composed of Lan people in the North, I
I was so happy that I couldn't sleep the whole night. Even though it is no longer the country I know and has split into several pieces, as long as it is still standing in the north, I will be satisfied."
"Countless times, I thought of my homeland and couldn't sleep day and night. But when I thought of the hatred that destroyed my country, I made an oath. If I don't take revenge and make the murderer behind the scenes pay ten times the price, I will never let myself be immersed in a comfortable life.
In life, after I finally got my revenge, I no longer had the courage to return to my homeland. Everyone I knew was dead, and the owner of the land there was beyond recognition.
"Dear Your Highness, please don't hesitate to wander around. This will always be your home. We are all family and we welcome your return at any time!"
I laughed. How could I not laugh happily when facing such lovely people? But as soon as I saw the clay-like man in front of me, my joy turned to anger, and I couldn't help but feel angry.
"But... you, Fimul Kasuo, clearly have the blood of Lan's will flowing through you, yet you did such a ridiculous thing."
I had expected that this was just a fake who had nothing to do with the Arashi royal family, but after meeting face to face and using the secret method passed down by the family, I was surprised to find that he was actually a bloodline of the Arashi royal family. The descendants of Arashi had fallen to this level.
kind of situation?
"You, arrogant and extravagant "yinyu", shameless! Siluwell knows that flexibility is a good thing. We have suffered enough from not knowing how to adapt, but flexibility does not mean corruption. It is contaminated by the extremely evil slave trade, which has sent the people to death.
You went to be ruined by the orcs, and you still deserve to call yourself the king who protects the people? You don't deserve to be the king!"
"You are ungrateful, greedy and selfish! You have made our homeland suffer humiliation, while you are hiding in the palace enjoying fine wine, food, and beauties. The warning I gave you was regarded as waste paper by you, and countless people who should have survived died in response to you.
Even if you die, you happily enjoy the dedication of your tribe, and you still have the nerve to say that you are the king above all the lords and responsible for guarding the country? You are not worthy of being a king!"
"You are cowardly and despicable, and ignore glory! The will of our ancestors has never been extinguished, and the heroic spirits of our ancestors have always been watching us. And if they had spirits under the spring, and the heroic spirits could descend to the earth, I should have strangled you, bastard, to death! How dare you!
Surrender? The royal family of Lan has a history of 1,700 years, and countless kings have died on the battlefield. No coward will surrender! You..."
"...You are not worthy of being a king!"
"I, Roland Lan, in the name of the fifty-sixth king of Lan Kingdom, deprive future generations of sinner King Fimul Kasuo from the throne!"
"I, the ancient ice-haunted Aroin, the late king's companion and the first member of the royal family, am here to witness the old king's abdication, and recommend Roland Lan to temporarily take over the duties of the king of Lan here! I will take on the role of supervisor.
."
The citizens and the royal guards were stunned for a moment, and then someone shouted "Long live His Majesty Roland!" and everyone was excited.
"Your Highness Roland, no, His Majesty Roland, welcome your return!"
"Your Highness Roland, please be careful, we welcome your arrival at any time."
Soon, driven by thoughtful people, cheers resounded throughout the sky. Being able to gain the support of the people so easily was, in a sense, thanks to Fimul's misbehavior.
But among the crowd, a young couple was complaining about each other.
"...Why do you have to force me to shout? Roland is familiar with my voice. He will definitely recognize it and he will definitely make fun of me."
"You've tricked him so many times, just let him laugh at you. By the way, how is the injury on your right arm?"
"It's okay. The orc shaman was injured more seriously than me. The other guys were just faking the story and weren't injured at all."
And when all of this was announced to the public and the overall situation was decided, I mercilessly threw Fimul down with only half a breath left.
"Ahhhhhh!"
Fimul's sharp screams echoed in the air. If he fell to the ground, he would definitely not survive. Some women and children had closed their eyes, unable to bear to see this tragic scene of turning into flesh, but I was firmly convinced.
Firmly locked on Fimul, he didn't let go at all.
"Wow!"
Sure enough, when Fimul was about to fall to the ground and fall to his death, two bat wings suddenly stretched out from his back, and he flapped violently, turning his fall into gliding and flying towards the outside of the city.
"Damn it! It's actually a demon!"
The expected speculation was confirmed, but it was not good news at all. A descendant of Lan with demon blood, no matter how you thought about it, there was only one possibility.
"Cavans...did you do all this? Is this all a setup by you?"
