Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

Moreover, this amount of time is nothing to her, because she is a half-demon, whose lifespan is far longer than that of ordinary humans. Therefore, I believe she can govern this kingdom well.

Hearing what Randolph said, Prince Wanglong was still unwilling and was about to refute, but the Dragon God Alsteed beside him was obviously getting impatient.

To him, the throne of a human kingdom was nothing but a trivial matter. If Wood hadn't agreed to the other party's request, he wouldn't have wanted to stay in this small place any longer and would have preferred to continue his search for the "human god".

"Wood, this is your own business to meddle in, so don't waste time and make a decision quickly. The matter of gods and men is more important, and we don't need to waste too much time here."

Neither Benedict nor Prince Dragon knew Alstead, and he had little interest in it. If it weren't for Wood's sake, he really wouldn't have bothered with such trivial matters.

At the same time, Alstead realized that Wood was the real "nemesis of gods and men." It was useless for him to work hard to find gods and men on his own. Working with Wood and the others was the only way to succeed.

First, there were the believers of God and Man in the Holy Kingdom of Milis, and now there is the puppet king of the Kingdom of Dragon King. Wood and his group always seem to be able to fight to the death with God and Man.

To avoid missing another opportunity like this, despite his dissatisfaction with Wood and his team's slow pace, Alsted decided to join them.

"Benedict? Isn't that the name of the princess that Pacus asked the Dragon King Kingdom for?

Since Randolph thinks it's fine, then how about she? After all, she's the one who could reform the rumored good-for-nothing prince; she must have some extraordinary abilities.

Wood didn't really care who the king of the Dragon Kingdom was, but Randolph had promised him the "Magic Eye," so he figured he'd just return the favor.

Wood's hasty decision left Prince Wanglong, who had been confident of victory, standing there dumbfounded.

Not to mention that Randolph's recommendation of a "useless princess" as the new king was somewhat unexpected, Wood and the Dragon God's hasty agreement also left him speechless.

To be honest, aside from Randolph's relationship, I am clearly the most outstanding member of the royal family, and my previous performance was also remarkable. I even went so far as to fawn over Wood and the Dragon God, but now the other party doesn't even give me a second glance and has directly chosen a useless princess who can't even speak properly.

"Lord Wood, Lord Dragon God, isn't your decision a bit too hasty?"

"Leaving aside Benedict's complete lack of experience in domestic affairs, her personal abilities are probably far inferior to mine. If she were to inherit the throne, our entire Dragon Kingdom would decline within a few years."

With his own throne at stake, Prince Wanglong could no longer care about saving face and stood up to fight for what was rightfully his.

At the same time, he was already starting to regret it and looked angrily at Randolph beside him. If it weren't for Randolph, his path to the throne would have been more complicated, but it would not have been as difficult as it was now.

"Well, actually I don't know much about any of you. I only agreed because you said you could let me make the decision."

Personally, I do tend to prefer Benedict Cumberbatch; at least she's pretty enough, isn't she?

Furthermore, I personally despise people who abandon their families easily, no matter how compelling their reasons may seem as an excuse.

In fact, given the situation at the time, Prince Wanglong had almost no other options but to compromise with Wood and Alsterd. However, the latter deliberately put on a righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor to show off, which Wood found quite repulsive.

"If a person can abandon even their closest relatives at will, then what right do they have to talk about protecting the country?"

If one day a powerful enemy like ours were to invade, a monarch like you would probably only have two options: either surrender and kneel down to lick our boots.

Another possibility is that they will abandon their so-called people and choose to slink away in disgrace.

“A person’s physical strength can be increased through training, but their character and mental strength are more important.”

The so-called useless princess Benedict, even though she was neglected and ignored, has been able to maintain a kind heart and even change others over the years. Doesn't that prove that her heart and character are strong enough?

As for external forces and such things…

As Wood spoke, he walked up to Benedict and, to the other’s astonishment, grabbed his wrist and quickly gathered his magic.

As Benedict instinctively tried to break free from Wood, a blue magic circle with a long sword drawn on it appeared on her fair wrist.

"Inscribing magic circles on the body is one of my most proficient techniques. The magic circles store my magic power, so even if they are activated, they will not cause any loss to you."

However, since this is not my own body, the magic power stored within it cannot be restored. With the magic power stored in this magic circle, I can probably use the King-level magic, Rose Knights, three times as I used before.

Each time it's used, the mark of this magic circle will fade a little, until it disappears completely on the third use. Consider this my gift to congratulate you on becoming the new king.

Hearing what Wood said, and seeing the magic circle on Benedict's wrist, the rest of the Wanglong Kingdom fell silent once again.

Especially after Wood inscribed a magic circle on Benedict's wrist, the Dragon God Alsteid immediately stepped forward and bestowed upon him the "Dragon God's Blessing" status.

To put it simply, Benedict is now considered a follower of the Dragon God. Although Alstead may not necessarily care about his followers, to the outside world, Benedict is now at least someone with powerful backing, isn't he?

"Greetings to the new King Benedict. We will do our utmost to assist Her Majesty in bringing the Dragon Kingdom back to its former glory."

Although Benedict had not yet held a coronation ceremony, the ministers and nobles of the Dragon King Kingdom immediately knelt down before him.

Although there has been no formal coronation ceremony, and the crown and scepter symbolizing royal power have not yet been handed over to Benedict, the entire Kingdom of Dragons has almost already accepted Benedict as the new king.

Regardless of Benedict's previous evaluations, and regardless of whether she is a so-called useless princess, with the strong support of the two powerful figures, even if Benedict is now crippled, she is still the new queen of the Dragon King Kingdom!

They had already witnessed the power of the 'King-level Ice Magic - Rose Knights' ability that Wood had bestowed upon them.

If it were just ordinary King-level magic, that would be one thing, but this was such a special King-level magic that they had never even seen it before.

The hundreds of Ice Knights, each capable of independent combat, were not only fearless but also incredibly strong. The power displayed by this single King-level spell was comparable to that of all the Dragon Knights and soldiers in the capital of the Dragon King Kingdom.

If such a "King-level magic" were used three times in one go, wouldn't it summon thousands of ice knights?

With such combat power, their Dragon Kingdom could even crush other surrounding kingdoms.

With Wood's magic circle, Benedict's lack of combat power was compensated for, and the blessing bestowed by the Dragon God Alsteed not only gave Benedict the identity of a "Dragon God follower," but also unexpectedly gave him a powerful backer.

In terms of followers and supporters, Benedict is far inferior to Prince Wanglong, but he has the strong support of Randolph, the fifth "Grim Reaper" among the great powers.

In comparison, while the previous Prince Wanglong had extensive connections and many supporters, he was no match for Princess Benedict in terms of quality.

Nobles are a bunch of opportunists, while the knights of the Dragon Kingdom have always revered Randolph. As knights, they also agree with what Wood said earlier and dislike princes who abandon their loved ones to show off.

Seeing that all was lost, Prince Wanglong knelt on the ground with lifeless eyes, while the beautiful girl with sky-blue hair, Benedict, was still in a daze, not understanding why she had suddenly become the new king of the Wanglong Kingdom.

The engagement between Pacus and Benedict was originally supposed to be fulfilled only after Pacus returned to the Kingdom of Cylon and accomplished something, but this process has now been completely omitted.

After all, the Dragon King who made such demands of Pacus is now dead and his body is nowhere to be found. Benedict is now the one in charge of the Dragon Kingdom, so Pacus, this fat man, can naturally live off his wife without any qualms.

"That kid named Pacus is really lucky. Not to mention that Benedict herself is quite good-looking, after Benedict becomes queen, the person who will run the kingdom will probably be him, who married into the family."

After leaving the Dragon King Kingdom, Wood and his two companions, finding the journey rather boring, chatted about the Dragon King Kingdom while making their way to the Asura Kingdom.

When the topic of women came up, Rudy, that lecherous guy, was clearly quite interested, and even objectively analyzed the measurements of Princess Benedict from the Dragon Kingdom.

Orsteed, however, listened to the two brothers' idle chatter with a look of boredom. The aesthetic sense of dragons is different from that of humans, so Orsteed could not understand the brothers' point of view.

Furthermore, the proud Dragon God stated that he currently has no interest in females, and that the only being who can capture his attention right now is the "human god".

"Although Benedict is a rare beauty, she's still quite a bit inferior to Alice."

Besides, Alice is the legitimate daughter of a prominent family, and you were even her parents' savior. If you wanted to live off a woman, you could probably do it too, right?

During the two years that Wood was "dead," Alice also contacted Rudy and asked if there was any news about the dragon god Orsteed.

Alice went to the "Land of the Sword Saints" to train, but her ultimate goal was to avenge Wood.

Just as the Dragon God was relentlessly hunting down the "human god," Alice and Kyrie, having mastered their skills, were also searching the world for the Dragon God, Orsteed.

After all, for most ordinary people, the Dragon God of the Seven Great Powers, Orsteed, is a legendary figure, and most people would never even see him.

It is precisely because it has always been elusive and intangible that it is called a legendary existence.

The Dragon God travels the world, and it's not easy for Alice to find him, so she has no choice but to travel the world with him.

"Alice... to be honest, she is truly the most talented and outstanding swordsman I have ever seen in this world."

But I really find it hard to reciprocate her affections..."

Even with the Demon Blade Finger Breaker given to her by the Dragon God Orstide, Alice's original strength in this world could only reach the level of a "Sword Emperor" at most.

Even for such a "Sword Emperor," there are probably no more than two people on the entire continent who could defeat her.

This version of Alice is so powerful that she is the strongest among those below the "Seven Great Powers". And because of Wood's intrusion, the Alice in this world is even stronger than the Alice in the original story.

Because Wood and Rudeus carried Laplace's factor, while possessing immense magical power, they also suffered from the side effect of being unable to condense martial arts aura.

Wood, however, used the "sword energy" from another world to make up for this problem. In fact, there are not many people in this world who know the skills to cultivate sword energy, at most only two or three.

Rudy counts as one, Alice counts as one, and Giglio and Paul each count as half.

The reason why Gilead and Paul can only be considered half-baked is because they don't have any special talent in cultivating sword skills from another world.

Their own school of swordsmanship is ingrained in their very being, and given their age, they are no longer able to absorb techniques and knowledge effectively.

As for Rudy and Alice, because they had trained with Wood since childhood and were quite talented, they both mastered swordsmanship skills from the other world.

However, Rudy neglected his martial arts skills later on due to his magic, so only Alice ultimately mastered them completely and even went further.

Chapter 523 Super Swordsmanship Genius Alice!

Alice was a swordsmanship prodigy, and everyone who taught her, from Girenu to the old sword god of the Sword Saint Land, and even Wood, thought so.

The original Alice, relying on the swordsmanship styles of this world, was enough to train herself to the level of "Sword Emperor".

However, thanks to the swordsmanship skills from another world taught by Wood, Alice, at her peak, can even reach the level of a "Sword Emperor," which is comparable to the so-called "god level."

As a native of this world, Alice doesn't possess any Laplace factors or other such strange things, so she has extremely strong fighting spirit.

After learning swordsmanship techniques from another world from Wood, she was able to successfully unleash sword energy.

During her two years of training at the Sword Saint's Land, Alice, with her outrageous talent, combined her battle aura with her sword aura, creating her own unique "Sword Battle Aura"!

The old swordsman of the Sword Saint Land naturally admired Alice's swordsmanship talent and potential.

Teachers all like talented and outstanding students, and in the eyes of the old sword god, Alice was clearly such an excellent student.

Alice arrived at the "Land of the Sword Saints" a month ago and, with her amazing talent, defeated all the apprentices there, including even the old sword god's direct relatives.

When the old swordsman learned that Alice had come to the Sword Saint's Land to train in order to pursue the Dragon God Orsteed and kill him to avenge his beloved, he did offer some advice.

But who is Alice? Spoiled and exceptionally willful since childhood, she only listens to a few people and rarely listens to the advice of others.
