Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 418 - 257: Inviting the Holy Warrior, Discerning Loyalty and Treachery
Chapter 418: Chapter 257: Inviting the Holy Warrior, Discerning Loyalty and Treachery
"Please, Holy Dragon, make a decision for us!"
"Ancestors, what wrong have we done? On what grounds are we being deprived of our surname?"
"I have shed blood for the family, I have been wounded on the battlefield, I have never disgraced the Augustus name, please, Ancestors, rebuke the tyrant..."
Outside the Mage City, in Elisium City, a spectacle unfolded that hadn’t been seen in this city for a century since its establishment, with the noble Royals kneeling and crawling, their cries and pleas echoing one after another.
The citizens of the city, officials, students, merchants, craftsmen, scholars, people from all walks of life, different age groups, different social strata, different groups all came to watch, after all, such an opportunity to see so many big figures present themselves in such a disheveled and disgraceful manner is indeed rare.
The entire city’s order was greatly affected as a result, yet the fairies responsible for maintaining order couldn’t take any effective measures because these people indeed belonged to the Augustus family.
However, a clear order soon came down, and it wasn’t from Noah, who was watching the commotion from the side, but from Selena, who couldn’t tolerate this group of embarrassing folks.
The legendary mage directly dispatched the golem army, joined forces with the city security forces managed by the fairies, and with the charge of violating city management regulations, disrupting social order, and public production, threw all these people into the dungeon.
Such a brutal style of action couldn’t help but amaze people, although there is nothing procedurally wrong with it, it undeniably shows the coldness and ruthlessness of the legendary mage, after all, those who came for help are supposedly her... Well, these people have no blood relationship with her anyway.
"Noah, you handle this matter, do as you see fit!"
Selena absolutely did not want to meddle in such troublesome secular affairs and directly went to Noah, leaving this messy situation to him.
"What does this have to do with me? Aren’t they all here to seek help from you, the first matriarch of the family?"
Noah only found it ridiculous and similarly didn’t want to deal with this affair.
"They didn’t miss shouting your name, Holy Dragon Noah, either!"
Selena glanced at Noah as she flew to Ilya, who had just woken up, speaking softly while commanding Noah with authority,
"I help you take care of your son, you help me solve this matter, it’s fair, isn’t it?"
"I didn’t ask you to come here, this little one doesn’t need any care now either!"
Noah muttered as he looked at the legendary mage happily playing with his offspring.
To be fair, even when maintaining a human form, his offspring was about three meters tall; if transformed into dragon form, that body length would be nearly ten meters.
Thus, the visual impact and sense of contrast were quite stunning when the legendary mage, who maintained a human form, was teasing the offspring.
"Why doesn’t he need care? If not for me, would he be eating so well now? Following you, what good could he eat?"
Upon hearing Noah’s mumble, Selena immediately retorted.
She had meticulously documented Ilya’s preferences for various foods and his absorption and growth after intake to craft a meal plan.
Striving to ensure that this little one would not only eat satisfactorily but also absorb more nutrients and enjoy better growth.
"I didn’t feed him poorly either!"
Noah defended himself with one sentence, but he knew well that he didn’t have the patience to observe the various bodily reactions his offspring had after eating different foods.
He wasn’t interested in collecting such data and worrying over it; as long as he’s full, that’s enough. After all, it’s his offspring; how fragile could he be?
Ordinary dragons in the wild still have to gnaw on tree roots and eat dirt. Being born in his palace, with plenty to eat and drink and the privilege to sleep a lot, how lucky is that?
"Alright, consider it as repaying for the milk money!"
Ultimately, Noah chose to take on this troublesome issue, after all, those who came all the way, crying out to their ancestors, some were even shouting his name, Noah, as if seeing him as one of the ancestors of the Augustus family.
This recognition isn’t considered wrong. His childhood image is still illustrated on the Augustus family’s banner now, as one of the family’s external symbols.
However, what Noah found baffling was that before causing a scene, did these guys not investigate what things he and Selena did?
The first internal purge of the Augustus family was personally hosted by Selena. Although Noah hadn’t done anything excessive, the cause for this purge was precisely because of him.
Why did these people believe that they could manage to persuade Uranos to retract that harsh family administrative order simply by relying on almost non-existent blood ties?
Indeed, Noah also thought that while the administrative order issued by Uranos was somewhat excessive, becoming Radiant Gold before the age of thirty or else being deprived of the family surname.
Although there were supplementary clauses, it truly was too severe. After all, like some folks were shouting, they indeed bled for the Augustus family, experiencing life and death on the battlefield.
The Augustus did have wastrels indulging in power and pleasure, but there were also warriors who dared to take up arms, don war armor, and earn capital on the battlefield.
However, while warriors are common, geniuses are rare, and the standard set by Uranos was truly too high.
