Chapter 873 The Coronation Ceremony

There was a massive library inside the royal palace.

It collected hundreds of thousands of books from all over the world, ancient and modern.

Almost every famous work from all over the world could be found here. This was a place that contained countless pieces of knowledge from all over the world.

In a study inside the library, the environment was beautiful and quiet.

Elizabeth pushed the door open and walked in.

In the study, a girl sat upright. She had long red hair and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. She was reading a book in front of her with utmost seriousness.

She was dressed in a simple white dress that was simple yet elegant.

At that moment, she looked up and smiled when she saw Elizabeth walk in.

"Why are you here? Isn't there a banquet today?"

"The banquet is over, and a lot of things have happened. I came here to tell you this."

She pulled out a chair and sat beside Annabel.

Annabel looked at Elizabeth and asked, "What's the matter? Do tell, although I'm not privy to most of the situation."

Her expression was calm. Although she knew that something big was about to happen in the royal family previously, she did not have much of a reaction to it.

"Right, the short story is that the royal family is all dead. I estimate that there are only ten to twenty people left."

"Including Isabel and Norton. They're all dead."

"Oh right, there's also the Protector General. He was just killed."

Hearing this, Annabel's calm expression finally changed.

"How did this happen? Why did so many people die all of a sudden?"

At this moment, Lu Yu walked over and stated. "I killed them."

He pulled out a chair and sat down. He looked at Annabel and continued, "The Protector General has selfish motives. He wants to wipe out the royal family and take over the throne."

"However, I intercepted his plan and completed it."

"Of course, I've killed him. So technically, I have solved all the problems."

Annabel looked at Lu Yu with a puzzled expression on her face. "Do you have the ability to do as you claim?"

"You don't believe me?"

"If it's true, then this is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life."

Even though she was knowledgeable, she had heard such ludicrous claims.

Lu Yu was so young but powerful enough that he could kill the Protector General and the royal family. This meant he had the power to overturn the power structure of a country.

Probably no one in the entire world could possess this kind of strength!

"Fine. What happens after you kill them all? Do you want to be Emperor?"

"Of course not. I want Elizabeth to ascend the throne, and I believe she has the ability to do so."

Annabel looked at Elizabeth and saw her sister's calm demeanor.

"It seems that the two of you have made an agreement. What do you want by supporting a person you trust to ascend the throne?"

Lu Yu continued to tell her about the Ember Empire. Annable heard it and only nodded slightly.

"I understand what you're trying to say, but are you mentally prepared to fight against such a behemoth?"

Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders. "Of course, I'm prepared. Also, I'm always preparing more and more against them."

"Right now, we're waiting passively for the Ember Empire to make the first move."

The fastest way for Lu Yu to strengthen himself was to tame more dragons.

With every additional dragon in his arsenal, his overall combat prowess would greatly increase.

With enough dragons under him, just him alone was enough to go up against an entire army!

He would be less worried when he had to deal with the Ember Empire at that time.

"Then, did you come to look for me just to inform me about this?" Annabel looked at the three of them and asked.

Lu Yu shook his head slightly. "Of course not. I hope that you can help us with the coronation ceremony tomorrow."

Annabel closed her book and nodded firmly. "No problem. Leave this to me. Since my sister is becoming Empress, I will naturally give her my help."

As an archaeologist, Annabel did not care about the outside world. She did not have much prestige in Lionheart City, and many people did not know she existed.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Elizabeth was naturally more suitable to be crowned Empress.

After a simple chat, Lu Yu walked out.

Lu Yu and Han Xuefei followed Elizabeth to her residence.

The villa she stayed in was luxurious, with a lovely garden and beautiful scenery.

When they returned to the villa, it was already late at night. Elizabeth requested her butler prepare a room for Lu Yu and Han Xuefei to rest.

The night passed quickly. When the sun rose, a brand new Lionheart Empire arose.

Lionheart Empire had undergone a massive change overnight, with the entire country also undergoing a monumental transformation.

The morning sun shone, and Lu Yu opened his eyes as he woke up from his comfortable bed. He washed up briefly and walked out.

In the living room, breakfast was already prepared. Elizabeth was already seated and enjoying her breakfast.

Lu Yu and Han Xuefei sat down at the dining table.

At that moment, Sean walked in excitedly, his face full of joy.

"The preparations for the coronation ceremony have been completed, and news has been released regarding the original Emperor candidate being changed."

"There are some voices of opposition, but it's not a big problem. Overall, the city is very supportive."

"After all, Norton and his cohorts are already dead. No matter how much they object, they won't be able to find a more suitable candidate."

As he spoke excitedly, he also sat down at the dining table.

Lu Yu picked up his phone and browsed through the news.

"You've already become the city's hero."

Sean smiled awkwardly. "It's all thanks to your idea. After I killed those monsters, the whole city thought I saved them."

"So, the public found it easier to accept when I went to announce the news of Elizabeth becoming Empress."

General Sean's prestige was in full force and got even stronger after last night.

After breakfast, Lu Yu looked at General Sean and asked, "How long will you stay in the capital?"

Hearing this, General Sean frowned.

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to stay for long. After so many deaths among the royal family, including the Protector General, this will show signs of weakness to outsiders!"

"The surrounding countries have long been eyeing us covetously. I'm sure they'll take this opportunity to launch a counterattack!"

Lu Yu sighed. "It seems like you have to continue fighting. It's been hard on you."

"Your Highness, we can set off to the ceremony now."

There was a golden throne in the royal palace. The coronation ceremony would be completed once Elizabeth ascended the throne and put on the crown.
