Heir to the Kingdom of 1.4 billion people

Chapter 86: Protect "The King's Godson"! (The highest level)

Castle hall.

The sudden burst of magical power immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Karen, who released this magic power, was staring at Victor in front of him. His eyes were wide open and the veins on his forehead were bulging like winding snakes.

"You actually want my daughter to be your concubine!" Karen looked furious.

In this world, nobles usually have concubines and equal wives in addition to their main wives. They are not required to be loyal to their wives. However, the status of concubines is only slightly better than that of maids. Some perverted nobles will even exchange concubines with other nobles.

Kaka.

Karen clenched his fists tightly, making crackling sounds as if he was trying to crush the air.

Even Victor himself was shocked by this scene. He really didn't expect that Karen, who was not angry when he pushed her before, would have such a big reaction.

After all, for most people, heterochromia is something they want to avoid as much as possible, and heterochromia in aristocratic families will seriously affect the family's reputation.

I sacrificed my reputation and accepted it out of kindness, so it would be fine if he wasn't grateful, but he actually acted like he was so angry that he wanted to kill him!
"Karen."

At this time, Danielle put little Haydn in her arms in the crib in the middle of the hall and hurried over.

"Calm down, calm down. Today is the most important day in our child's life. At least don't get angry until the blessing is completed."

The woman hugged her husband and gently stroked his neck, which was bulging with veins, and comforted him in the gentlest tone possible.

"Huh" Karen let out a long breath.

Thinking of his young son and the shocked and surprised looks of the guests around him, the dark green magical power emanating from him finally dissipated gradually.

"Victor, in your opinion, perhaps Elise is just a burden."

"But, to me, she is the most important daughter, just as important as Haydn Hughes, the protagonist of today's ceremony!"

"I dote on her so much that I even hope she never gets a finger hurt in her life."

"I swear to the God of Storms and Hunting, if you dare to make such a ridiculous statement again, I will regard it as an insult to the entire Hughes family and start a war of honor with you!"

Karen's voice was low and cold, and the suppressed anger in it was obvious.

An honor war refers to a situation where a noble's honor is insulted by another noble, and a war is launched to avenge the insult.

In this world, honor is above all else for the nobles, because even the king often does not interfere in the honor wars between vassals.

".Is it really that exaggerated?"

Hearing that even Karen mentioned the War of Honor, Victor could only flee.

After all, unless he uses the Gift of Pain, he can't be a match for this cold-faced killer.

“The best day in a person’s life often has a few twists and turns, but this only makes the beauty more unforgettable.”

At this time, Rosa with silver hair also walked towards Karen.

"Just like when my husband, Red Flame, was courting me with Violet in his arms, he got splashed with mud by a passing carriage and was so angry he was on the verge of tears."

"He thought I would reject him because of this, but he didn't know that the mist in his eyes meant more to me than all the flowers in the world."

Rosa said calmly.

After hearing her mother-in-law's advice, the anger on Karen's face finally dissipated.

"Thank you for your teachings." He bowed slightly and tried to force a stiff smile on his expressionless face.

"It's almost noon, let's start the blessing ceremony." Rosa glanced at the dazzling sun outside the window and said lightly.

Since an accident has occurred, delaying the process could lead to changes, so it is better to complete the ceremony as soon as possible.

"Yes"

Soon, in the center of the hall, bunches of blooming flowers were piled up and clustered around the baby blue.

Roses, lilies, tulips, forget-me-nots, baby's breath. The flower language of these various flowers represents love, purity, and abundance in the baby's life. None of them can be missing.

Then the lords of the southern border lined up and waited in front of the baby basket.

The first to offer their blessings were Haydn's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Karen.

"My dearest child, my Hayden." Danielle gently kissed the forehead of the sleeping baby in the baby basket.

"Thank you for making my life complete. Before you came, I thought I was the most important person in the world and was very proud of it. But after you came, I realized that caring for others and loving others is also a kind of happiness.

Danielle said gently, at this moment she was radiant with maternal radiance, which made everyone look at her sideways.

"As your mother, I wish you to become a great hero like your grandfather, active in epic poetry and accomplishing great deeds."

After saying that, Danielle slowly retreated and Karen stepped forward.

"My youngest son, as your father I am not good at speaking, nor as wealthy as your mother, but I swear on my honor that I will resist any evildoer who dares to harm you at all costs, even if the price is my life."

"As a father, I wish you peace and safety."

Karen also kissed the baby gently on the forehead, then retreated with satisfaction.

Then Rosa, Haydn's grandmother, came forward.

"My child, as my grandson, I believe you will never lack wealth, force, honor, and status in your life."

The corners of Rosa's mouth curled up slightly, which showed her confidence as the Lord of the Southern Territory.

"Look, child, your parents and the lords of the entire southern territory have come to cheer for your birth."

“So I wish you that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles you encounter in the future, no matter how many sleepless nights you have, you can always remember that you came into this world because of love!”

clap clap.

After hearing these words, the lords in the row behind him immediately applauded with moved expressions.

The old woman leaned over and kissed the baby's forehead, then left.

After that, it was the turn of the major lords in the southern border.

In addition to the earldoms and scattered baronies, there are a total of seven viscount lords in the Inner South, including Karen.

The first lord to come forward to offer his blessing was Warren Locke, the lord of Locke. He was Karen's close comrade-in-arms in the past, so he was the first to come forward to offer his blessing.

"My child, I wish you to become a warrior as strong and reliable as your father."

When this tall and burly man with a thick brown beard kissed the baby, his hard stubble almost woke up Haydn, who was sleeping soundly after drinking the secret potion.

The second lord who came forward to congratulate was Albert Ironhorse of the Ironhorse Territory. His territory was famous for producing fine horses, and he was also a muscular, bearded man.

And his blessing was: "Never fall on horseback in battle."

The third person to come forward to offer a blessing was Edward Ram of the Ram Territory, whose appearance was very different from the previous two lords.

He is tall and thin, with pale skin and short silver hair combed neatly back. Although he is not young, he is still a handsome man.

"I wish you bravery, but do not take pride in your bravery. Instead, seek glory through wisdom," Edward said softly.

The fourth person to come forward to offer blessings was Henry Watson of Watson Territory, a tall and silent man whose territory was famous for its large number of blacksmiths.

"I wish you courage, as hot and endless as the molten iron in the furnace."

The fifth person to come forward to offer congratulations was Beren William of William Territory. He was quite old, the oldest lord in the entire southern territory except for Earl Martha, and his beard had turned white.

"I wish you to always cherish your youth and the people who loved you at that time."

The old man took a forget-me-not from the bouquets around him and put it in the baby's basket.

The last lord to come forward was Victor from Night Shadow Territory.

"I wish you gratitude and generosity."

Victor hesitated, and his reluctance was obvious.

Afterwards, he wanted to kiss the baby, but was coldly rejected by Danielle who was standing beside him.

This is an insult! This is unfair!

Although he didn't want to kiss the little Karen brat, it would be embarrassing if he didn't when all the other lords did.

Victor wanted to get angry, but when he saw the old woman behind her, he could only leave in anger. At this time, after the last lord had finished his blessing.

Above the baby's head, a white light flashed, and a line of words appeared - "Noble".

It’s the protection, the blessing of the world has finally arrived!

Then, a touch of emerald green emerged and quickly expanded, and then the color of the text changed back and forth between white and emerald green.

Seeing this scene, everyone's faces became excited, and Danielle's eyes were filled with tears.

Because this means that as long as the last godfather offers his blessing, Haydn's identity will be protected and he will definitely be able to stabilize at the extraordinary level.

You should know that even her two brothers, Roy Roland, were only given the status of extraordinary level during the infant honor ceremony, and later they were promoted to the Morning Star level based on their personal fame and great achievements.

Tapping.

At this moment, a figure pushed aside the waiters and hurriedly stepped into the hall. It was Bishop Rune of the Storm Church.

At this moment, he was sweating profusely, covered in dust, and looked quite disheveled.

"Huh, I finally made it. I'm not late."

Rune looked at the constantly changing colors of the protection above the baby's head, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Sorry, Karen, I met a wanted criminal on the way, so I was delayed a little longer."

He gave Karen an apologetic smile.

"Make way, make way, I'm this child's godfather, let me pass."

He pushed aside the young man in a black hat who was blocking his way and strode towards the baby basket.

Then Karen dragged him aside with embarrassment on her face.

"Rune, the godfather candidate has been changed, and it's not you. You should stand with me first." Karen muttered softly.

"What! Why didn't you inform me? You know I didn't sleep for two days and two nights because of my journey?"

"Oh, I was wrong. From now on, bring a horse over here, and I promise to do anything for you unconditionally, just like the black bread agreement we made back then."

Karen talked a lot before he finally calmed down his comrades.

At the same time, Xia Mingyu slowly walked to the baby basket in front of the surprised eyes of all the lords.

"Your Excellency, are you willing to be this child's godfather and give him the love and guidance of a loving father?"

Danielle asked softly, gazing at His Highness in front of her.

She knew that success or failure depended on this one move. At this moment, her whole body was nervous and wanted to tremble, but she suppressed it firmly to avoid losing her composure.

Her toes were almost bleeding from inside her shoes!
"I do." Xia Mingyu said calmly, then he slowly took out a mirror-like object from his pocket - a mobile phone.

According to the etiquette of this world, the godfather must give his godson a gift called the bonding gift.

The gift of connection does not have to be expensive, but it must be kept by the godfather for a long time, worn and played with close to his body. People believe that this is the only way to connect the godfather and godson.

Usually they are accessories such as necklaces, bracelets and rings, but Xia Mingyu has no hobby of wearing accessories, so he took out his mobile phone which had been turned off due to lack of battery after he traveled through time.

After all, for modern people, nothing can compare to a mobile phone when it comes to wearing it close to the body.

"This is an item from my hometown that I wear day and night. It's called a mobile phone, and I gave it to my godson, Hayden Hughes, as a gift of kindness."

Xia Mingyu said softly, putting his phone into the basket.

Rosa, who was not far away, was stunned when she heard the words.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Xia Mingyu began to bless:

"My godson, your parents are my most important friends, and that is why I am able to stand before you today."

"In this world you came into, some people were born naked, poor, ugly, and weak, suffering the humiliation of life for a piece of black bread, while others were born surrounded by flowers, resplendent and blessed with countless favors, destined to stand at the top. Any choice you make will affect countless people."

"You are undoubtedly the latter. You possess all the good things that the world desires. I don't need to bless you with these anymore, so I bless you."

"Justice, freedom, fairness, integrity, kindness, always full of enthusiasm, always have faith, never lost in the darkness."

"Finally, I wish you peace."

Xia Mingyu leaned over and gently kissed Haydn's forehead.

After he finished blessing, he and everyone else looked at the blessing above Haydn's head.

To everyone's surprise, the protection after receiving his blessing did not stabilize at emerald green. Instead, the green color quickly faded away, and the protection showed signs of reversing to white.

"how come!"

This scene scared Daniel so much that his face turned pale and he almost fainted on the ground. Fortunately, his mother Rosa supported him.

The lords in the hall also started to make a commotion.

"That shouldn't be the case. Under normal circumstances, after receiving the Godfather's blessing, one will definitely be able to stabilize at the extraordinary level."

"Could this kid with a hidden identity be a civilian?"

"Oh my God, Karen rejected Bishop Rune and found a commoner to be his son's godfather. Is he crazy?"

Listening to their discussions, Roy Roland and the other Crescent Knights' faces turned pale, and they looked at the black-haired young man in front of the baby basket with unfriendly eyes.

Haydn is their nephew, and now Haydn's entire life has been influenced by this young man, so much so that they feel like they are ready to take action.

"Silence!" Rosa stood up and said sternly.

The majesty of the Lord of the Southern Territory instantly quieted the previously noisy hall.

"I heard that during a baby's honor ceremony, if the godfather hides his identity or people don't know his identity, his blessing won't be truly effective."

Rosa looked at everyone and explained slowly, then she turned her gaze to Xia Mingyu.

"Your Excellency, for the sake of your godson's future, could you please remove your hat that conceals your protection?"

Rosa's tone was gentle, almost pleading.

Xia Mingyu was silent for a moment, and after hesitating for a long time, he took off his black hat.

A line of emerald green text appeared: "1409670292 Nationals' Heir to the Kingdom."

The next moment, the whole place was silent, and everyone stood there motionless as if they were completely frozen.

boom!
The noble protection on Haydn's head, which had degenerated into white, exploded directly.

A flash of white light appeared, and new words appeared—"The King's Godson."

Then, white, emerald green, dark purple... it finally stopped after being promoted to the dark blue "Godson of the King".

clap clap clap!
Accompanied by the sound of a pile of glass falling to the ground and shattering, the entire hall suddenly became noisy like a group of demons dancing wildly!

Danielle fainted again with great happiness, and Karen frantically used her fingers to measure her breathing.

The two brothers Roy and Roland slapped each other with all their strength to verify whether they were under an illusion.

The wine glasses in the hands of the two muscular men, Warren and Albert, were crushed directly. Their faces twitched as if they were hit by an invisible hammer, and their facial muscles jumped back and forth uncontrollably.

Edward remained calm, but he kept picking up the cold drinks on the table and splashing them on his face in order to wake up from this absurd dream as soon as possible.

Victor's eyes widened like bulbs, his mouth opened wide, his face pale, and he kept repeating, "Impossible! Impossible!"

The only person who remained calm was Rosa Martha. She walked tremblingly to the black-haired young man and asked tremblingly:

"Who exactly are you?"

"I'm Xia Mingyu."

At the same time, the artist in the corner seized this golden opportunity and used his protective ability to quickly paint the scene of the demons dancing wildly.

The mother who fainted because of happiness, the brothers who slapped each other, the panicked lords, and the ugly Lord Night Shadow, all the details are vivid, as if they were recreating that day.

This painting has become one of the most famous paintings in later generations, as well as a precious historical document. Its name is "The Sage King Pities His Son"
