Chapter 49 The end of the volume: Thales, the second prince
"The Cullen family, yes!"
"Havia, yes!"
"Armond, yes!"
Three cheers of approval rang out one after another.
Thales suddenly trembled, and his brain began to count the number of people.
He then involuntarily breathed harder.
He looked at Gilbert, whose eyes were full of excitement that he was trying to suppress.
And Coste Nantriste opened his mouth wide, and it took him a full twenty seconds to figure out what had just happened!
He looked at the smiling old Duke Cullen in disbelief, and his breathing accelerated rapidly!
Behind him, Dastan and Count Sorel also looked at each other in disbelief.
what happened.
what happened!
"Then, eight people are against, ten are in favor, and one abstains," Cullen said with a smile on his face and said the number of votes: "More than half are in favor."
"It seems we don't have to appear," "Black Prophet" Morat, who was watching all this, sighed: "The backup plan has been cancelled."
"The situation was decided when Iris turned against her."
"In the end, it was that child's method that worked."
Raphael showed a relaxed smile, nodded, and pulled the gloves back on his wrists.
"The High Council has made a decision that the law on illegitimate children does not apply to this child." Duke Cullen forced a smile on his fat face: "This child can have the surname of Canxing and everything of a prince.
right."
"The bloodline of the bright star is renewed, and there are people who will succeed the star."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
King Kessel V finally showed a stingy smile, nodded and gestured to Gilbert.
The hall finally erupted into loud shouts again!
Applause, cheers, shouts, and crowds of people constantly crowding the guard's shield line.
Costard didn't listen to what Cullen said, he just stared at Duke Cullen in front of him with his one eye wide open.
Bob Curran.
You are the beginning of it all.
You are the one...
But you...
but……
you this.
traitor.
"Let him be your future king," Costard stared at Duke Cullen, gritted his teeth, and spat out a few words: "You will regret it one day!"
The expressions of the dukes were different. Val looked at Thales blankly, Zhan crossed his arms and sneered, Falkenholz stared at everyone playfully, and Lyanna's face was still cold, and she only glanced at Thales occasionally.
As for Thales, his mind went blank at this moment.
Did you pass this test today?
Gilbert waved his hand excitedly and took a plate from the hand of an attendant beside him, with a rolled-up document on it.
"Your Majesty, young sir."
"Although it is a bit crude and hasty, the proper ceremony still needs to be done."
Kessel V nodded expressionlessly.
With trembling hands, Gilbert handed the scroll with the nine-pointed star fire paint seal to the Supreme King.
The nobles with different expressions slowly dispersed, leaving the center of the terrace to the father and son.
"Kneel down." Kaiser V still had a complicated expression, but he looked at Thales extremely seriously.
The traveler adjusted his breathing and knelt down on one knee.
coming.
he said to himself.
this day.
Although this is not the future he can choose, wants to choose, or wants to choose.
But in this dangerous and unknown world, he is like a small boat tossed around by huge waves, unable to control his own destiny.
In fact, he is extremely lucky to be alive.
And now... Thales looked across.
King Kessel V unwrapped the fire paint on the scroll and slowly opened it.
Tens of thousands of people in the Xingju Square saw a small figure kneeling down in front of His Majesty the King. They all excitedly started cheering, roaring, making noises, and clapping their hands. Some people even started to attack the order of the city defense team and the security hall.
Wire.
"Bright Star—Bright Star—"
"In the name of the thirty-ninth supreme king of the Kingdom of Stars and the Southern Islands and the Western Desert, Kessel Mindis Eddie Brightstar."
Kessel V read the content on the scroll and stared at Thales with a pair of sky-blue pupils.
"The person in front of me is a descendant of the Brilliant Star, the bloodline of the kingdom!"
"The Sunset Goddess bears witness to his bloodline."
"The Bright Star Royal Family guarantees his identity."
"The High Council recognizes his rights."
gods.
king.
Lord.
The three pillars of the stars.
Thales squeezed his knees harder and harder, and couldn't help but think of the ups and downs of the state meeting just now.
"No matter what your past is, when you stand up, that is (you_will_stand_up_as)..."
"That's..."
Having said this, King Kessel V suddenly paused, and the hand holding the scroll trembled slightly.
Thales frowned.
He knew why the king paused here.
he knows.
Thales' thoughts went back to a few hours ago.

In the final corridor leading to the Hall of Stars, Gilbert confirmed Taylor's name with him.
"According to convention, members of the royal family have two middle names, the latter one is the name of the father, and the former one is the important person who affects you... They are usually famous members in the history of the royal family, such as the Three Kings of the Stars you have met,
For example, the 'Wolf Enemy' Keira Canxing in the extreme realm, or the great musician Su Mei Canxing..."
"Are you sure you want to do this? You know... this name is even rarer than 'Tales'. This will..." Gilbert followed Tails in embarrassment.
"Yes! Mr. Gilbert, I have decided!"
"This is like a brand and memory on my body," Thales said with firm eyes as he walked forward step by step: "No matter what the cost, I don't want to give up."
"I'm going to become a shining star," he gasped slightly, remembering what he saw in the royal cemetery: "But if I can't control my future, at least, please let me control my name."
Thales raised his head and walked forward firmly.
No intention of looking back.
Gilbert looked at the complicated-looking Jinnie and nodded helplessly.
Your Majesty will probably not be happy.
——————
Time returns to the present.
Just when the nobles began to frown and talk about His Majesty the King's strange behavior, King Kessel V took a deep breath, as if gathering courage and perseverance, plucked up all his strength, and spoke loudly with a voice full of majesty and calmness.
shouted:
"When you stand up, that's—"
"Tails Theranja Lana Kessel Brightstar!"
"The second prince of the Kingdom of Stars!"
After King Kessel V finished reading the content on the scroll, he looked at Thales, but seemed to be lost in thought.
The nobles began to discuss one after another.
Serenjailana?
Who is that?
Thales Bright Star slowly stood up from the ground.
He is a shining star.
The second prince.
He is also the only prince of the Kingdom of Stars.
The only heir to the High King.
The guards hurriedly passed the words down from level to level, reaching every corner of Xingju Square.
The deafening mountain roars came one after another, like waves rolling back, and sounded again.
But this time, the chaotic and grand voice of the crowd quickly became clear and clear because of the reference target.
"Tails Theranja Lana Kessel Brightstar——"
"The second prince—the second prince—"
"Tails Theranja Lana Kessel Brightstar——"
"The second prince—the second prince—"
Amid the thundering cheers, Thales glanced at the sky in a daze.
The setting sun is hanging in the west, emitting endless red light.
The outer wall of this magnificent Fuxing Palace is illuminated red and bright.
Just like the color of blood.
Dusk has arrived.
"Thank you for your hard work today," Gilbert walked up excitedly and bowed gently to him: "Please come with me."
"His Royal Highness Prince."
——————————————
Eastern Continent, somewhere.
In a dark, dilapidated building, two men sat around a fire, both wearing white robes embroidered with gold suns.
"Master Steward, have you heard?" One of the younger people raised his head and asked curiously: "The Kingdom of Night has been in turmoil recently. I heard that many vampires have left and fled to the Western Continent."
The older officer in charge nodded indifferently: "The temple has sent people to investigate."
"But in the Western Continent, the power of the Sunset Temple is stronger than our Xiri, right?" The young man saw that the officer in charge was not showing off at all, so he asked tentatively: "I heard that people in the Western Continent are at peace with vampires and werewolves.
If we live together, Sunset Temple will no longer hunt dark creatures. Can our people pass through Sunset’s influence?"
The officer in charge raised his head and gave him a cold look.
"Why do you think our world is called 'Erol'?"
"Ah? I saw it when I was learning the language," the young priest of the Sun Temple scratched his head: "Erol is the god of the holy sun, in charge of the rise and fall of the sun, and determines the origin of all things - so our
This world is called Errol’s world, isn’t it?”
The officer in charge of Xiri snorted and smiled mysteriously: "You were sent to guard the seal, but you are not qualified to read those historical books, so you only know these."
The young priest's face showed desire and curiosity.
"Our world was not originally called Errol - it was renamed Errol after the End War."
The officer in charge said silently.
"At the end of the war that almost destroyed the world, Errol, the God of the Holy Sun, sacrificed himself - otherwise the world would not just be broken into two continents."
"The world has been named Errol since then to commemorate the God of the Holy Sun and his heroic sacrifice of self to save the world."
The young priest's eyes widened in surprise: "So the legendary God of the Holy Sun was caused by those disasters -"
The officer in charge raised his hand with a cold face, interrupted the priest's rhetorical question, and continued:
"In the embers of the Holy Sun, the two gods inherited his light and rose again."
The young priest suddenly understood something and opened his mouth wide.
"Yes, the Lord of the Sun and the Goddess of the Sun are originally one body and share the Holy Sun."
The officer in charge had a cold look in his eyes:
"The holy sun shines on all things, so is there any difference?"
"Can the sacrifice of Xi Ri operate within the scope of the setting sun? This is the answer."
But the officer in charge looked at the joyful sacrifice and secretly added in his heart:
Of course, at least that's what we think.
As for the sunset...
At this time, an inexplicable vibration suddenly came from this dilapidated and dark building!
Dust fell from the collapsed stone pillars everywhere.
The expressions of both of them changed at the same time!
No way?
They jumped up and ran towards the center of the building coldly and vigilantly.
"Get ready for the message candle, don't be stingy!" The officer in charge shouted as if facing a powerful enemy!
“Deal with that evil—prepare for the worst!”
They arrived at their destination.
In the dark building, on the stone floor in the center, there is a strange pattern painted with strange paint.
It was a large circle nearly ten meters wide, full of weird formulas and letters. In the middle of the circle, there was a six-fingered black claw drawn.
The shaking continues.
The young priest looked puzzled and put away a white gold candle in his hand.
He frowned and said: "The seal pattern is still intact, it has not broken free."
But the officer in charge was still on guard. Feeling the shock, he turned around with a stern expression and asked, "But what's going on? This kind of shock..."
The young priest thought of something and hurriedly took out an ancient black book from his arms, flipped to one of the pages and read with difficulty:
"Inexplicable vibration...Inexplicable vibration...Ah, there it is, here it is!"
But the priest looked at it for a while, then raised his head and looked at the officer in embarrassment.
"What's wrong?" the officer in charge asked displeasedly: "You are the only one here who has received complete training in ancient imperial writing!"
"No...this notebook says that occasional restlessness of the seal is normal."
The young priest frowned and said:
"But... sudden solar activity, lunar tides, the flow of the Hell River, even the Seven Lords of Hell picking their noses and yawning, the Kingdom of the Gods having nothing to do with bedroom decoration - God, what a disrespectful word is this -
- Multiple extreme masters pass by, and even if the name of the sealed object is called by many people at the same time, it may cause energy fluctuations and life restlessness... with varying degrees of severity..."
The priest flipped through his notes and exhaled helplessly amid the sound caused by the vibration:
"God, I'm really convinced by these mages. There are six or seven different conditions for a question, and there are more than twenty possible answers. After I write it, I have to mark it with "
