Chapter 318: 318, Goldfinch Empire Main storyline ends_1

Following Queen Alise’s coronation, a ceremony to honour the Empire’s meritorious officials was held immediately.

Queen Alise raised her hand to quiet the audience below the ceremony stage and then spoke with an authoritative voice.

“Next, I will reward the heroes who have defended our country! I thank them for their sacrifices during the war of restoration!”

“Tina Garcia.” Queen Alise turned to Tina, who was standing closest to her.

“Your Majesty!” Tina bowed in salute.

“Tina, you were born into a commoner’s family and through your hard work and exceptional talents, you became the Empire’s General at just 18.”

“Starting from Orleans City, you led our forces to victory in dozens of large and small battles, with hardly any losses! You made a significant contribution to our cause of restoration!”

“Now, I grant you the rank of a Duke, in the name of the Goldfinch Queen, along with the land of Pearl City and all the towns within its jurisdiction!”

With these words, she took out a precious badge made of fine gold from the Space Ring and personally pinned it onto Tina’s chest.

Upon hearing the Queen’s words, everyone present, noble and peasant alike, was taken aback.

Pearl City has been one of the Empire’s most powerful cities even before the war.

Now, after the war, with Forest City basically ruined and Goldfinch City’s status irrepressibly falling, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Pearl City is now the most powerful city within the Empire!

No one expected Queen Alise to grant such a city to Tina!

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Tina knelt on one knee, leaning on her sword, to express her gratitude for the Queen’s reward.

In fact, a few days earlier Tina had already told Queen Alise about her plans to quit her official position and travel the world, which the Queen respected.

Hence, Queen Alise’s gift of Pearl City to Tina is just a clever move to keep the city under the control of the Royal Family.

According to tradition, a city the size of Pearl City would usually be given to war heroes.

By rewarding Tina and having Pearl City return to the Royal Family when Tina steps down, she accomplished her goal.

“And you, Nemesis.” Queen Alise turned to Su Yu, whispering to him:

“You’ve made countless contributions to the Empire. In Kaishi Town, you saved my life from falling into Landilus’ hands;”

“During the decisive battle in Orleans City, you summoned Bernina, completely reversing the outcome;”

“In the past few months, you’ve returned from the western continent with Tina, bringing back a large number of spoils of war, helping to alleviate the Empire’s debt.”

“I remember you once told me that you wish to become the Empire’s Minister of Foreign Trade. Now, I shall fulfill this wish of yours! Nemesis, I grant you the title of Duke and the position of the Empire’s Minister of Foreign Trade!”

With that, she took out a badge made of pure white gemstone and personally pinned it onto Su Yu.

Indeed, with Su Yu’s contributions, Queen Alise could’ve granted him Orleans City as his land, she even entertained such an idea in the past.

However, considering if Nemesis truly became the Lord of Orleans City, he would surely not be able to stay by her side for long.

Moreover, there would inevitably be conflicts of interest between the Royal Family and local lords, which could give rise to disputes. She didn’t want to create a rift with Nemesis because of this.

Additionally, she intends to groom Nemesis to become a Prince and co-manage the country with him. There’s no need to make him the Lord of Orleans City.

Therefore, Queen Alise granted Su Yu only the position of Minister of Foreign Trade.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Su Yu smiled as he accepted the Queen’s award.

“Ding, the main storyline [Goldfinch Empire (96-100)/100] is completed.”

“You received the following rewards: Title [Duke], Position [Goldfinch Minister of Foreign Trade], Accessory [Glow of the Golden Sparrow], 10 World Prestige Points, and 100,000 Experience Points.”

“Ding, the main storyline [Goldfinch Empire] has been satisfactorily completed, thank you for your participation!”

At the same time, the main storyline with the golden frame on Su Yu’s mission panel disappeared without a trace.

Looking at the vanished storyline, Su Yu felt a sense of regret.

This plotline gave him many benefits, territorial gains, power, strong equipment, and even favor from Queen Alise and Tina.

However, good things don’t last forever, the main storyline is now completed.

But he felt it was time to break free from the script’s constraints and do the things he wanted to do.

He then examined the badge bestowed upon him by the Queen.

[Glow of the Golden Sparrow]

Accessory

“Not bad at all!” Su Yu nodded at the accessory.

But what exactly is the deal with this “Attribute 5”, akin to a “suicide bomb”?

Queen Alise wanted to ask Su Yu some questions.

But seeing that he wasn’t paying attention to her, she turned to others.

“Next, you Lord Roland, Master of [Silvershine Spire].” Queen Alise looked at the tower master who was not far away.

“Your Majesty!” Roland respectfully performed a mage’s salute to Queen Alise.

“Though you made some mistakes in Forest City, even assisting the despicable conspirator, Xi Fan, considering the situation at that time, and your significant contributions in the decisive battle, your merits offset your demerits. The status of [Silvershine Spire] will remain unchanged for now.”

Privately, Queen Alise had promised Roland many benefits, such as paving the correct path for him to reach the pinnacle of a seventh-order mage.

However, these matters were not suitable for a public setting, so she didn’t mention them.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Roland respectfully replied.

During the rest of the ceremony, Queen Alise rewarded all the heroes present.

With a lot of available positions and lands due to the war, and Queen Alise now having control over many resources, almost every hero received suitable rewards!

After the award ceremony, a national celebration lasted for a month.

During this month, apart from the government departments working hard to prepare against potential military invasions by the two major Empires, ordinary people took to the streets for joyous parades.

Not just during the days, even the nights were lit by bonfires, with merry people everywhere.

Everyone celebrated profusely, glad that the hard times of war were over, and strongly believed that under Queen Alise’s rule, the Empire would venture into a new future!
