At this moment, everyone began to think carefully: which of the Royal Knights possessed such formidable strength? And what kind of person was Chu Xing?
"What? If that's the case, shouldn't all of you be excluded from this world?" Chu Xing's sharp gaze, seemingly able to penetrate people's hearts, met the elders on the high platform, and he sneered repeatedly.
The five elders on the platform exchanged a glance, their faces as dark as the bottom of a pot, their voices filled with boundless anger, yet they dared not erupt as they had before: "This is sophistry! How dare you use sorcery in such a place! Have you really not considered the consequences of doing this? Even if you are a Royal Knight!"
"No, at worst, the country will be destroyed!"
Chu Xing smiled and said something that sent a chill down the spines of everyone present!
For some reason, no one present thought Chu Xing's words were an exaggeration or a joke! Beneath that nonchalant exterior, it was no exaggeration to say that a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood lay hidden!
Several of the more quick-thinking individuals finally realized what kind of person they were facing, and quickly whispered something to their confidants, telling them to leave the venue first. It is unknown what they went to do there.
However, he should be able to figure out in a very short time that the person standing here is the terrifying being they were afraid of not long ago!
"... "
The five elders did not immediately fly into a rage upon hearing these treasonous words. They exchanged glances, each lost in thought. After all, not everyone could use the ability to transform everyone in the square. If the magic contained any means of killing, then whether they could even leave the venue was a question!
###194. Eh eh eh###
The elder seated in the center took a deep breath to ease the somewhat awkward situation, then smiled and said to Emilia below, "What you say makes sense! So, young lady, I apologize, but let's begin! Simply place your hand on the statue!"
"... "
Emilia kept her head down and didn't say a word!
She is extremely angry right now!
Why should she suffer such misery?
Under Chu Xing's protection, she was always a happy girl, and almost everything went her way! Why should she stand here and be mocked and ridiculed by these so-called elders!
Also, can everything be resolved with just an apology?
Why should Emilia have to accept this apology?
Why?
In terms of strength, under the careful tutelage of Chu Xing and Parker, Emilia has already reached the level of a world-class powerhouse. While her background may seem weak, with Chu Xing and Parker, two of the world's top ten, by her side, she has nothing to fear! Even if she acts unreasonably and creates trouble of her own making, Chu Xing and Parker will unconditionally step in to suppress her. As for any so-called mistakes, those will be discussed afterward!
But those who offend her must still die!
This mentality is somewhat like princess syndrome!
But is Emilia a girl who doesn't deserve to have princess syndrome?
"this…"
The elders on the platform, receiving no response, exchanged bewildered glances, feeling somewhat embarrassed and ashamed. However, Chu Xing's presence instilled a sense of apprehension in them, preventing them from expressing their feelings immediately. They could only continue, "We apologize; this time, we did not consider the matter thoroughly enough. Young lady, if we have harmed you, we can offer compensation! Just ask, and we will try our best to fulfill your request! As elders of the nation, we still stand firm in the face of right and wrong!"
"is it?"
Emilia finally raised her head, a mocking smile on her lips: "So, can you change racial discrimination in this country, or even the whole world? I just don't understand. We are all souls, just in different bodies. Why should we suffer these things for no reason?"
"this…"
The elders exchanged glances again. Even for these senior figures, racial discrimination had been a part of their lives since childhood. Although they knew right from wrong and understood the principles, this deep-rooted bad habit of racial discrimination was not so easily ignored! Discrimination against a particular species could become instinctive at some point!
It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Once it becomes a habit, racial discrimination becomes even more difficult to change! Not to mention that this is the global situation, changing it isn't something that can be done with just a few words! It will take a very long time before there's even a sliver of hope!
"Yes, why should innocent people suffer like this..."
A hoarse, aged voice, sounding as if it would end at any moment, pierced the square. A figure leaped out of the crowd as nimbly as a sparrow and stood beneath the Dragon Fiery Stone!
Chu Xing narrowed his eyes as he looked at the old man with horns on his head and a tail behind him: "This is..."
Who is it?
That's right, Chu Xing had never seen this guy in the anime, or even in the novel!
The old orc surveyed the arena, and as the guards drew near, a sharp blade slid from his wide robes. He sneered, "Originally, I wanted to see what kind of heir this country would be, and incidentally, to hear my employer's orders to kill him. But this girl of mine is truly wise. If I kill someone like that, I'll be infamous for all eternity. Besides, these words resonate with me. Why should I bear such burdens? After the defeat in the demi-human war, all orcs became as lowly as beasts! Heh!"
"brush"
Another figure flashed by, this time a person in a large white cloak!
The white cloak should be very noticeable; standing in a crowd, such a large white cloak would be spotted immediately. But have any of you noticed such an obvious presence around you, and where did this person come from? It's as if they appeared out of thin air!
"Little girl..."
This time it's a female voice! And it's still a beautiful, sweet voice that's invigorating! She could easily pass for a VTuber!
"Ok?"
Chu Xing's perverted DNA kicked in immediately! His eyes narrowed slightly as he scrutinized the white figure, as if trying to see through the wide white cloak to discern the person beneath... Hmm, among the buffs Chu Xing had been given, he could vaguely sense that this woman was extraordinary! Perhaps, he might not be able to defeat her?
What a strange feeling!
Chu Xing's mind was filled with countless thoughts...
The woman continued, "With just those words, you can defeat the other heirs! Those businessmen and orators who claim to serve the country and its people only know how to spout nonsense... Little girl, you're amazing! No wonder you are..."
The woman's voice suddenly stopped and then vanished from the spot, as if it had never appeared at all!
"Who are these people?"
The high-ranking officials and nobles who were watching were completely dumbfounded. The old half-orc might have made them feel cold because of his murderous intent, but this woman made them feel scared!
Isn't this just a shrine maiden election? All sorts of deities have come!
Whoosh!
Another group of figures stepped forward and stood with the old orc who stood proudly in the square. They were also assassins sent by various forces to cause trouble. These assassins basically had one thing in common: they came from lowly backgrounds. They either used to mingle with orcs or were orcs themselves!
Emilia's words might seem immature, like a bubble that would burst at the slightest touch, yet they resonated with them despite their impracticality! After the orc elder stepped forward, they secretly resolved to follow suit and take a step forward! They wanted to try together to make Emilia the leader of the country, instead of a puppet emperor ruled by the Senate!
"Holy crap, were there so many assassins hidden here?"
Chu Xing closed the distance between himself and Emilia. Looking at the dozen or so faceless assassins who jumped out, he couldn't help but gasp. He secretly regretted not having Roswaal and Emilia come. Otherwise, with so many assassins attacking at once, Roswaal would be overwhelmed and wouldn't be able to take care of Emilia. Emilia, whom Chu Xing cherished, would be in danger!
The elders on the stage broke out in a cold sweat when they saw so many assassins jump out!
The old orc dancer glanced disdainfully at the elders on the stage whose legs were trembling, then spoke kindly and without a trace of bloodlust to Emilia, who was also looking at him: "Young girl, go! Perhaps we are not the same kind of people, but at this moment I truly hope that you can fulfill this wish, and I also hope that you will protect this original intention!"
###195. Finished, left, time for dinner###
Emilia was also touched. Those words weren't entirely her own idea! Chu Xing had casually mentioned them while chatting with Parker, and she had simply borrowed them!
However, to say such a thing, one must naturally have this thought in mind! Especially after receiving such unfair treatment today, this thought, which was originally just a fleeting idea, blossomed in Emilia's heart like a seed taking root! It gave her a new goal in mind!
"Go, Leah." Chu Xing smiled and placed a hand on Emilia's head to encourage her.
"Ok!"
Encouraged by Chu Xing and supported by so many assassins, Emilia turned her gaze back to that shameful sculpture!
She glared coldly at the elders on the high platform, then moved gracefully and rhythmically toward the statue, placing her exquisitely beautiful hand on the Dragon Stone.
brush!
The light flashed again, making it impossible to look directly at it!
"Passed! Congratulations, young lady, you have successfully passed! You will participate in the formal election in one year!"
The elder statesman solemnly announced from the high platform, but there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes! Because, if Emilia were to wield real power, their Senate might be sidelined and unable to maintain control! But what could they do?
"Ok!"
Emilia gave a nonchalant reply, but a smile still crept onto her lips. Although she had a general idea of what the test results would be, the fact that she now had the right to compete for the throne still filled the young woman with excitement!
Emilia quickly turned around to thank those who supported her, but she was stunned because in those few dozen seconds, the assassins from various countries had disappeared!
After all, they belong to the dark side, their hands stained with blood. It wouldn't be good for them to stand openly in the public eye for so long. After seeing Emilia's success, they were satisfied and it was time for them to go home and do whatever they wanted!
However, while all the supporters whose names he didn't know had left, Chu Xing remained standing. He embraced the girl and Emilia, and the two looked just like a couple deeply in love, able to entrust themselves to each other! They also looked like a father and daughter, the father's doting love for his daughter and the daughter's dependence on her father!
"As expected of my Leah!"
Chu Xing felt the girl's breath trembling slightly and smiled as he spoke.
"Um, am I too late?"
Just at this tender moment, Roswaal finally arrived, peeking out from the side and ending their moment of intimacy!
Chu Xing's eyes flashed, then he slapped the other person on the shoulder and said with a smirk, "Yeah! You're too late. Everything's over. But it's a good thing I didn't agree to let you and Leah come in together. Otherwise, even the two of you combined might not have been able to handle it! There were more than ten assassins from other countries, plus the pressure from the Senate!"
Is it really that dangerous?
Roswaal was taken aback; he probably hadn't expected such a big scene!
"It's alright, it's all over, let's go! Leah worked so hard today, we have to treat her to a good meal! We absolutely can't let her get thinner because of this little thing!" Chu Xing smiled, took Emilia's hand, and stepped out of the square!
"... "
There was a brief silence in the air, after which the elder on the stage signaled to the guards beside him that the next person would be called in for testing!
Will it continue smoothly?
I think so!
However, not all assassins emerged in this round. A few, with greater patience, remained hidden among the crowd, waiting for the next successor!
...
After leaving the palace, Chu Xing and his group went to the best hotel nearby and spent a fortune to reserve the most luxurious private room! They ordered every kind of dish! A super Manchu Han Imperial Feast with more than 200 dishes was prepared!
"Why did they include a badge? It's actually quite nice!"
Chu Xing picked up a badge he had received after Emilia's success and waved it in front of his eyes, clicking his tongue in amazement.
This badge looks much better than Kobe's shabby one. What's with this so-called Royal Knight Badge? Aside from being slightly higher quality, Chu Xing couldn't see anything special about it. Emilia's badge, on the other hand, is much more exquisite, with gems, gold, diamonds, and various rare materials! It costs dozens of times more to make than his Royal Knight Badge!
Well, it's not that nothing in the Royal Knight Badge can compare to the Royal Heir Badge. At least in terms of size, one Royal Knight Badge is equivalent to five Royal Heir Badges!
"You can't lose this! If you lose this badge, you won't be able to participate in the upcoming royal selection ceremony!"
Emilia saw Chu Xing casually tossing the precious badge he had worked so hard to obtain in his hand, and hurriedly snatched it away! As if afraid that Chu Xing would eat the badge!
This made Chu Xing and the two ghost girls burst into laughter. Chu Xing reached out and pinched Emilia's little face, saying, "Don't worry, you won't get lost. If you do get lost, I can create an exact replica for you! Maybe you don't believe in heaven or earth, but I definitely do! Otherwise, no one would be willing to feed someone as gluttonous as you!"
"Ok?"
Emilia's cheeks puffed out. When did she become such a big eater? It seems like Chu Xing ate about 70% of the food on this table by himself.
