Upon hearing King Belardian's words, the nobles and ministers in the hall suddenly became commotion. The meaning of the dying king had been made very clear.
He is about to die, but the queen who succeeds is too young, so he will choose someone to manage the Rockman Kingdom in her place, and then return the royal power to the queen after Queen Remilia comes of age.
One after another, longing eyes were cast on the lingering man on the throne, and some cast their fiery gazes on Princess Remilia, who was standing timidly next to the throne. Some bad thoughts emerged in some people's minds.
among.
"Haha!" Seeing the reactions of the nobles and ministers below, Bella Dean sneered a few times, and five terrifying figures exuding legendary pressure slowly appeared behind him. These were the five legends who obeyed the royal family.
When they saw the five looming figures exuding heavy pressure, some nobles and ministers who had fallen into beautiful illusions suddenly calmed down as if a basin of ice water was poured on their heads.
Some nobles saw these five legends starting to tremble in their calves. They speculated whether these legends who took orders from the royal family were here to kill them and clear all obstacles for the new king to succeed. After all, a dying king can do anything.
normal.
Others are not worried about whether they will be killed. They know that the king will never do this. What they are worried about is whether Bella Dean intends to choose one of these five legends.
position, temporarily taking charge of the royal power of Rockman Kingdom. In this case, it has nothing to do with them. How can they win against the legend?
"Don't think too much." Seeing the changes in the expressions of the nobles and ministers below, Bella Dean's face showed an undisguised look of ridicule, "I have no intention of killing you yet. I call these five legends
Your Excellency, you are here just to let them serve as witnesses to witness the emergence of the Grand Regent who will rule our Lockman Kingdom for at least the next ten years."
"However, you don't have to think too much." Seeing the expressions of longing and expectation on the faces of some nobles, the king poured cold water on them mercilessly, "None of you is qualified to be the regent of the Rockman Kingdom. I
I asked you to come here to witness, and also to let you know whose orders you should obey in the coming time."
"So, Your Majesty, where is the Grand Duke Regent you want us to meet now?" A minister concealed his disappointment and asked pretending to be calm.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's time to invite the Grand Duke Regent to come out and meet with us." A nobleman echoed.
"He is not here now." Upon hearing the nobles' request, Bella Dean stood up tremblingly, turned his head slightly, and looked at his daughter aside, with a kind smile on his face.
"Not here?" Belladian's answer made these ministers and nobles look at each other and scratch their heads. They couldn't figure out what the king wanted to do, so they called them all over, even the legend, but now
But he told them that the Grand Duke Regent hadn't come yet. What kind of big shot was he with such a big air?
"Don't worry, I will invite the future regent of Rockman Kingdom here now." Bella Dean stretched out his hand and held Remilia, who was already as panicked as a frightened deer.
He didn't see any movement. Just less than five steps away from the throne, a small black spot appeared. Then in just a few breaths, it rapidly expanded, and finally turned into an oval space gate that was as tall as a person.
"This is the entrance to the demiplane."
The appearance of this space door immediately shocked the nobles and ministers in the hall. They had never known that such a thing was hidden in the hall that symbolized the center of power in the kingdom.
"This should be the legacy of the Scarlet family. Hey, now let's see if the legacy left by your royal ancestors can turn the tide. If not, the kingdom's ruler should be changed."
Seeing the appearance of this space gate, several nobles with a long history immediately knew what it meant. There were similar things in their families.
"Come in, everyone." After seeing that the space door was stable, Bella Dean held her little daughter's hand and walked into the space door calmly, and then the five legends filed in without hesitation.
The noble ministers in the hall looked at each other, not knowing who was taking the lead, and they all got in. It would be false if they were not curious about the future Grand Duke Regent.
"What is this?" When the noble ministers entered the demiplane with the entrance at the center of the kingdom's power, they were immediately blinded by the scene in front of them.
This demiplane that the Scarlet family regards as their heritage is not large, and is even among the smallest among the demiplanes. But even so, it shocked many nobles.
Because the half-plane in front of them, which was not much larger than the palace, was filled with elemental crystals. Everything but crystals were crystals. Even the ground they stepped on was made of crystals.
What is even more eye-catching is the five-story tower-shaped altar stacked with crystals and engraved with complex patterns in the center of this demiplane.
At this time, Bella Dean was standing under the altar. Centered on where he stood, the formations lit up one after another. He was activating the altar.
"Remilia, I won't let anyone hurt you." Seeing the activated altar, Bella Dean had a smile on his face, and his heart was half relieved.
Among the five legendary guards behind him, and under the watchful eyes of many nobles and ministers, he took out a scale with a golden shimmer, and then used his fighting spirit to carry it to the center of the altar as a medium to summon a majestic being.

…
In the empty, lonely, dark void, a bright golden light bloomed like a sun, illuminating an area of the sky. The Dragon King slowly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of helplessness:
"Someone is calling me in the world of Erathia. Alas, it must be an old friend who is in trouble and has come to seek refuge. But I can't go back for the time being. This is a favor I owed back then, and the promise I made cannot be ignored.
But fortunately, I still have an excellent daughter, let her accept the call on my behalf. Let her repay the debt of gratitude I owe!"
"No, I won't do it. You can figure it out on your own." After the Dragon King Deimos spent a lot of energy to find the Golden Dragon Girl through blood connections, Atrice refused without hesitation.
"Are you trying to make me break my promise?"
"You can find your grandson Muria. He can now take charge of his own business. You gave him a drop of source blood, just in time for him to help you repay your debt of gratitude."
