The demigod elder paused, then added:

"This Grand Duke of Silver and his demigod Silver Dragon are a pair of dragon knight partners."

Their rise has been too rapid; it's been less than ten years, and their potential is truly terrifying.

If my guess is correct, they should be the chosen ones of the world in this generation of the Terran world.

Are we really going to send at least four demigods to kill a trading partner?

What if we still can't kill it?

You all know how difficult it was to kill these chosen ones in history.

They escaped what seemed like a sure-win situation.

And you all know what the consequences were.

At this moment, a demigod who had lived a relatively long time seemed to remember something, and his face showed some fear:

"That's right, the most recent World's Chosen One is the Heart of the Stars."

"He was just a marquis's illegitimate son back then."

He was also hunted down by various people, but he always managed to escape danger step by step.

Those forces that originally opposed him were all wiped out.

We secured our position among the four major powers only by befriending him and establishing connections with him.

"And the other chosen ones in history were all extraordinary individuals; those who didn't die eventually became demigods."

"Elemental sighs, mechanical gears, the echo of the tides, the scorching flames, the hammer of forging..."

"And Guderian!!!"

A string of names struck their hearts like a heavy hammer.

Especially when the last name was announced, the hall fell silent for a long time.

It was so quiet you could hear someone swallowing, but Carlos was a petty person.

He wanted to say something more, but was cut off by another person:

"We haven't even considered the influence of other factors yet. We know that the Silver Duchy has a very good relationship with the Knights Alliance and the Magic Empire."

We cannot be certain whether those two parties will choose to court the Silver Principality after seeing that it possesses demigods.

"If one of them chooses to win them over, our counterattack will be nothing but a joke."

This is an even bigger blow to our reputation.

After speaking of this demigod, he looked at Carlos with emotionless eyes:

"So, Your Excellency Carlos, if you insist on teaching them a lesson..."

Let's not use the name of a business alliance anymore!

You can go find him and spar with him yourself.

Carlos's face looked swollen as if he had been slapped.

Asking him to fight a demigod dragon knight one-on-one is just asking him to get beaten up unilaterally.

After all, their business alliance has a well-known reputation for combat strength.

So Carlos looked grim, but he didn't say anything more.

Seeing that Carlos remained silent, the demigod looked around at the other demigods present.

There were three new faces. He hesitated for a moment, then reiterated the principles of the business alliance to the demigods present:

"Ahem! Let me reiterate!"

"Our business alliance is a friendly organization, only for mutual support and not for fighting for supremacy."

"Our guiding principle in dealing with external affairs is to make money through harmony and not to make enemies with any party."

Let's do our business honestly.

"If he insists on competing with others because of his personal feelings, we suggest he join another empire."

That was a good place for him to fight.

After saying that, he glanced at Carlos, as if he were deliberately giving him a warning.

Although Carlos's face turned red, he did not come out to refute.

If he had that ambition, he wouldn't have come to the business alliance to retire.

Most of the demigods in the business alliance are old guys who have long lost their youthful drive and now just want to retire.

When faced with a tough battle, they slip and run faster than anyone else.

Even Ron was afraid to team up with them.

"Falling behind temporarily means nothing, and going fast is not necessarily a good thing. Going far is the most important thing."

"As long as humans continue to trade, our influence will not disappear."

Finally, this highly respected demigod in the business alliance concluded.

"In short, let's continue to do business honestly and try to improve our relationship with Ron and those other newly emerged demigods."

The demigods below nodded in agreement after hearing this.

This is the very foundation upon which their business alliance has been able to exist for millennia.

The impact of Margaret becoming a demigod was enormous.

Especially after they came to believe that Ron was the chosen one of the world, they dared not make any rash moves.

Unless it's a fundamental conflict of interest, he wouldn't choose to antagonize Ron.

For them, offending someone who is currently enjoying great success would be a huge loss.

If relations sour, we must annihilate them with swift and decisive action.

Otherwise, if he escapes, they will be the ones who suffer.

Therefore, not only the business alliance changed its attitude, but most of the other major forces also made the same decision.

Back in the Magic Empire, after the higher-ups watched Ron's live stream in the Blue-Red Duchy...

A small meeting was held on the spot.

There weren't many people in attendance, but they were all quite important.

The Empress of the Magic Empire, a demigod-level mage, the Minister of Military Affairs, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and a royal retainer who rarely appears in public.

Victoria was also among them.

She exuded the aura of a demigod mage.

This indicates that the person has just broken through and has not yet fully mastered their power.

Benjamin glanced at the legendary genius mage without making it obvious.

He was cursing his nephew Lewandowski to death in his heart.

You not only didn't try to lick their boots, but you also made them take the fall for you.

Is this how you use the space transfer reel I gave you?

Who taught you that?!

Now look what's happened; I've inadvertently made enemies with them again.

The Magic Empire was the instigator of this dimensional invasion, and it monopolized the space for a long time before it was exposed.

With their control of spatial passages, they have gained the most from this interdimensional war.

Therefore, Victoria was not the only newly ascended demigod present.

Empress on the throne—Artoria

He also successfully advanced to the level of a demigod.

At this moment, the crystal ball in front of everyone was repeatedly playing a clip of Ron riding on Margaret's back and beating up the Blue Nickel Dragon.

The camera angle wasn't very clear, but the oppressive aura of the demigod dragon rider could be felt even through the screen.

"This Grand Duke of Silver has grown far faster than we expected."

A demigod mage spoke first, his tone flat, revealing neither praise nor criticism.

"His dragon companions have already become demigods, so it's only a matter of time before he becomes one himself."

At that time, the other party will have truly reached the pinnacle of the world, and apart from the world's ruler, nothing will be able to threaten them.

Moreover, it's hard to say that this is his limit; he might even be able to challenge for the title of World Lord.

The demigod mage's tone gradually became more worried.

Ron's growth rate was still too astonishing. It startled everyone else present.

You have to understand that all of them were geniuses back then, but they still cultivated for hundreds of years before becoming Level 3, and then only became demigods by sheer luck when they were around a thousand years old.

Even Victoria, who became a Category III film actress a century ago, is considered a smaller version of the original in their eyes.

I never expected to see a prodigy like Ron.

It only took ten years to reach level three!

The more these people discussed it, the more incredible it seemed, with some even speculating that Ron might have encountered some kind of extraordinary adventure.

Fortunately, Victoria quickly steered the conversation back on track, otherwise they would have all started to wonder if Ron possessed a world-class treasure.

Haha! How could that be!

Victoria thought to herself, "Doesn't she know what her man is capable of?"

Aside from the red agate this time, only the larger spatial equipment is considered valuable.

But it's only similar to the quasi-world treasures of those few kingdoms, and can't be considered a strategic treasure.

To prevent anyone from targeting Ron, she quickly steered the conversation toward the Son of the World.

The people of the Magic Empire were quite convinced by this claim, after all, their ancestor was a real-life example right before their eyes.

We have no choice but to believe it.

Moreover, during this period, Benjamin may have wanted to ease the tension between himself and Victoria or something.

He has consistently expressed his support for Victoria's views.

In the end, the title of "Child of the World" was finally firmly placed on Ron's head.

It has been certified by two major powers.

As the story spread, its credibility skyrocketed.

Ron will probably be completely confused by then:

"The Child of the World?"

"I?"

"Am I not a demon from beyond the realm?"
