1025 Chapter 572: How Do You Feel About My Daughter? [2/2]

Richard's gaze was playful.

"The next step in our free time might have an unexpected effect, although we don't have many chess pieces in our hands."

That was a semi-divine artifact. One would have to work hard to overcome even the most arduous treasure as a reward.

However, one has to plan this matter carefully.

It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to give the throne to a destitute prince with no foundation.

However, it was precise because of the difficulty that the final rewards would be sweet.

"I think I'll have to discuss another topic when I meet the Grand Duke of Frostworlf in Solan City this time…"

Richard finished speaking. They heard footsteps outside the door.

"Lord Richard, President Vale, the City Lord's Mansion received an invitation to you to attend a banquet tonight."

The half-murloc handed over the golden invitation.

Richard put it aside. He didn't even glance at it. "Vale, come with me tonight."

"I have been looking forward to this meeting for a long time."

A Legendary Ascetic Monk, the ruler of Solan City, the Archbishop of the Holy Church Empire–any of these titles would have an enormous deterrence.

One could call someone a ruler when one gathered all these names on one person.

He should be a ruler who could control the fate of tens of millions of people.

Their wealth, strength, and status should be best among the Mortal Plane.

One couldn't even step into the banquet's door a year ago. Not to mention being invited to it.

At this moment, Twilight City already had the qualifications to be on equal footing with Solan City.

His previous efforts had finally paid off.

Multicolored clouds filled the sky as the sky gradually darkened.

Violet Manor's fleet slowly drove towards the city center.

Christy sat next to Richard. She held his arm tightly. She tilted her head and asked with interest.

"Lord Richard, did Prince Luce say anything? For example, the audacious Richard, why didn't he offer the Ell Plane to the Holy Church Empire? Or perhaps the Holy Church Empire will confer you the title of Marquis, and you will hand over the Ell Plane to the Royal Family to manage…"

At this moment, she still tightly gripped the strengthening crystal that Richard had given her in her hand, unwilling to let go.

Richard laughed.

"You're overthinking. I'll talk to your father about Luce in detail."

He spoke meaningfully.

"It won't be long before that prince becomes the most distinguished guest in Solan City."

Christy didn't believe him.

"Even a beggar knows about the third prince's background. How could he be qualified to represent the Holy Church Royal Family if he wouldn't want to seize the Ell Plane?

"What's so noble about it?"

Richard pinched her delicate face and didn't explain.

This matter depended on the attitude of the Grand Duke of Frostwolf in Solan City.

He would arrange for Luce to ascend the throne.

He would gain something if he played a few more moves.

Troops stood before the City Lord's Mansion.

Troops heavily guarded the surroundings.

No pedestrians dared to approach this martial law area. The street residents only dared to stand outside the cordon and carefully observe.

The area under martial law today was wide. It seemed that something big was about to happen.

Many nosy residents and players even initiated to stop. They wanted to see what would happen.

A luxurious carriage slowly drove over and entered the center of the heavily guarded area not long after.

Everyone froze wide-eyed. Shock and disbelief shrouded their faces.
