Falosi's Supreme Parliament Hall.
"Dias, you old bastard, why are you here as well?"
Earl Ranke had just received a letter from His Majesty Querendo III. The content of the letter was for Earl Ranke to head to the Supreme Parliament Hall as soon as possible.
Recently, Earl Ranke heard from his daughter, Karana, who was now Duchess Blackwood, that something big happened in the Land of Frost. It seemed to be related to the uprising.
As the leader of the Falosi Lionheart Knights, Earl Ranke thought that His Majesty Querendo III was going to send him to the Land of Frost to quell the civil strife in that country.
After all, Querendo III rejected the invitation of the Land of Frost's alliance against the demons, which caused the diplomatic relationship between Falosi and the Land of Frost to plummet.
Falosi and the Land of Frost had always maintained a close trade alliance. If the alliance between Falosi and the Land of Frost broke down, it would be a huge loss to the entire Falosi.
"I don't know. His Majesty didn't just worry about us. Look …"
The man named Dias was a minister of internal affairs. Count Ranke was a good friend of his when he was young.
Earl Ranke looked in the direction that Minister Dias was pointing and saw a bishop in a red robe at the corner of the parliament hall.
"Why haven't these despicable people left Falosi?" Earl Ranke frowned.
Ever since Earl Ranke knew that his son-in-law, Duke Blackwood, died in the hands of the Nation of Saint's Adjudicator, he had blacklisted the Nation of Saint.
If it wasn't for His Majesty Querendo III trying his best to stop Earl Ranke, he would've led his knights to fight the Nation of Saint.
Since then, the Nation of Saint's missionaries were rarely seen in Falosi. He didn't expect to see a bishop in the Supreme Parliament Hall today!
"That bishop was recommended by Duke Farona," Minister Dias said to Earl Ranke in a low voice.
Earl Rank looked at the silver-haired man sitting beside the bishop.
This hair color was characteristic of the Osta people of the Land of Frost. The duke was a diplomat from the Land of Frost.
The relationship between Falosi and the Land of Frost largely depended on how the Duke reported to the King of the Land of Frost about Falosi's current situation.
Earl Rank glared at the bishop. Since the ambassador of the Land of Frost was talking to the bishop, he couldn't do anything to the bishop.
"The Frost Kingdom and the Holy Church have been allies in war since ancient times. Count Ranke, please control your anger." Minister Dias also tried to dissuade him.
"You only know how to hide in the dark."
Earl Rank angrily puffed his beard and sat on his chair.
"Minister Dias, His Majesty didn't invite us here to announce the acceptance of those villains, did he?"
Earl Rank glanced around the hall of the highest parliament. The number of nobles that came this time was beyond Earl Rank's imagination.
Usually, when His Majesty Cromwell III convened a parliament, around 30 nobles would be considered a lot. However, there were more than 60 nobles here today.
Every family in Falosi that could be named had arrived. Even the ambassadors from various countries had found their seats and taken their seats.
"Don't worry, it looks like they're going to change the Chapter of Exaltation," Minister Dias said.
The Chapter of Exaltation was the foundation of all the laws in Falosi. If the king wanted to change its content, it would be a big event that would attract the attention of the entire Falosi.
Therefore, when Earl Rank heard that this parliament might involve the Chapter of Exaltation, he couldn't help but sit up straight.
The seats in the parliament hall were gradually filled. Earl Rank was sure that 99% of the noble families in Falosi were present. It could be said that the people sitting here controlled everything in Falosi, including every inch of land, every currency, and even a piece of cloth used to weave clothes.
Cromwell III sat on the highest throne in the parliament under the watchful eyes of the nobles.
Everyone was anxiously waiting for Cromwell III to announce the news that would decide the fate of Falosi.
"Everyone," Cromwell III's stern voice echoed in the parliament hall.
An old scribe beside Cromwell III picked up a pen with his withered fingers and started writing down every word that Cromwell III had said.
"I've invited everyone here today to show you something," Cromwell III said.
Show me something?
Earl Rank was slightly startled. Could it be that there was a huge breakthrough in the research of some magic-guided machinery, or that something terrifying had happened to the Falosi city?
Everyone was guessing the same thing as Earl Rank. As Cromwell III waved his hand, two knights slowly walked to the center of the parliament hall. One of them was holding an Orb, while the other was holding a table.
The table was placed in the center of the parliament hall, and the Orb was placed on top of it.
So far, Earl Ranke hadn't noticed anything special about the raw crystal. It didn't emit any powerful magic waves, nor did it give off any evil vibes that made him feel hostile.
A spellcaster walked out of the crowd and arrived at the center of the parliament hall. He placed his hand on the Orb and injected his magical power into it.
The Orb began to work after receiving the magical power. It aimed at a white wall that was painted with special paint and released a ray of light.
At that moment, Earl Rank finally understood the function of the raw crystal. His daughter, Kalana, once showed him a show called 'movie'.
Earl Rank remembered that the picture in the movie came from a primordial crystal.
"What will appear before your eyes next is what happened three days ago."
Cromwell III spoke again when everyone's attention was attracted by the light on the wall.
What happened three days ago? Does that mean it's not a stage show, but something that happened in real life?
Earl Rank stared at the light on the wall. Not long after, a shocking scene appeared in the light.
The sky was covered by scorching clouds. The ground of the city below the scene cracked, and magma gushed out of the cracks. The buildings in the city collapsed and were devoured by the magma.
Which city of the Falosi? Earl Rank's eyes widened as he watched the scene that looked like a natural disaster.
In the next second, a giant flaming dragon flapped its wings and flew out from the horizon.
The giant dragon landed on top of a building and let out an incomparably shocking roar.
"I! I am the embodiment of power! "
