The First Magic World War-Chapter 289 - : 282. Princess May’s New Ride

Chapter 289: 282. Princess May’s New Ride

When Charles woke up in the morning, he was of course residing at 698 South Sevantes Riverside Street. The place had been cleaned for him, and new furniture had been moved in. Then he saw an exceedingly peculiar “big ship” on the Sevantes River.

Ah, the Queen Bee!

Docked at the shore, the Queen Bee lay there peacefully, already exerting great pressure on the other ships on the river. After all, this was an Ancient Magic Warship, superior even to Inglima’s Magical Alchemy Warships. Even if you combined all the forces of the Five Great Empires and the New and Old Continents, there would only be a total of twelve such Legendary Warships.

Yes, this warship was moored on the south bank.

It was somewhat like waking up in the morning to find a spaceship parked in your own driveway.

Not to mention the neighbors in the community, nearby police officers would probably have the military send someone over to ask if it was an alien invasion.

Around the Queen Bee, there were indeed two warships, and on the shore, there was nearly a thousand-strong military presence. However, the most prestigious part was that three figures of the Sacred Order were floating in the sky.

Charles felt the urge to go out and say, “Don’t panic! This is Princess May’s new ride!”

“Given by me…”

But he knew all too well that his influence was insignificant. His words would not be believed, so he waited patiently at home. Firstly, the three figures of the Sacred Order descended one by one, entering 699 South Sevantes Riverside Street. Shortly after, they came out and spoke to both the warships and the troops onshore, then left on their own accord.

Not long after, the Red Dragon Palace dispatched an envoy, dispersing some of the troops and warships but leaving a regiment behind, obviously for Princess May’s use.

The leader of this military force was someone Charles recognized, an old acquaintance, none other than Ban Lanmalock!

This youngest lion of Notruden appeared to have improved his Cultivation significantly. With every move, he exuded the aura of a strong figure.

Charles thought to himself, “If I’m not mistaken, he must have advanced to High Order. His progress is so rapid.”

Seeing that the situation was resolved, Charles finally got dressed and got up.

The location of 698 South Sevantes Riverside Street was truly excellent, as almost every bedroom had a view of the Sevantes River; some rooms allowed simultaneous views of the river that traversed Notruden and the cityscape.

The bedroom Charles had chosen even offered endless vistas without him having to leave his bed.

He descended calmly and upon spotting the temporary military camp cordoned off by several horse-drawn carriages, he courteously inquired, “Is Mr. Ban Lanmalock around? Please inform him that an old friend, Charles Meklen, has come to visit.”

Before anyone could send word, Ban Lanmalock himself emerged. Seeing Charles, his expression complex, he asked, “Why have you come to Notruden again?”

Charles pointed to the Queen Bee on the river and replied, “I arrived on that ship. It was an unexpected journey, and I’ll be leaving soon.”

Although Ban Lanmalock’s tone wasn’t very pleasant, he actually bore no malice towards Charles. Last time, although not defeated by strength, he had wholeheartedly accepted his defeat and kept his promise, no longer pursuing Aurora Sumei.

However, what troubled Notruden’s youngest lion was that he had thought Charles and Aurora would become a happy couple, but rumors of Charles and Princess May were spreading in Notruden, which made the young lion’s heart uneasy.

He initially thought this matter was settled!

But he soon witnessed Princess May, described as darkly luxurious, frequenting bookshops and bookstores, and he even heard that Princess May had obtained the rights from Charles to publish four novels. These rumors were quickly confirmed; the four novels were available for purchase all over Notruden. But…

What made the heart of Notruden’s youngest lion even more uneasy was that the author of the book was Anne Meklen.

It was said she was a young miss of the Brittany Family, a biological daughter of Earl Brittany from the Fars Empire.

And that wasn’t all. People brought back various gossip about Charles from Fars, so outrageous that anyone with a “normal IQ” would find it hard to believe.

For instance, Charles was once a guest in the homes of several barons and their wives and was even chased through the streets with a sword by a gentleman for his improper behavior, forced to run naked…

And then there was…

Well, Ban Lanmalock simply didn’t believe it.

Who was Charles? He was the man who had dueled with Notruden’s youngest lion on the Sevantes River and had won a fair and square victory.

To say someone could chase him down the street with a sword until he ran naked…

Wasn’t this an insult to the intelligence of all Notruden’s men?

Who had such ability?

The Sacred Order?

The Sacred Order was not that cheap!

Anyway, when Ban Lanmalock met Charles, everything was very complicated. He absolutely refused to believe that Charles was a frivolous whore. After all, he had seen Charles with his own eyes, who was indeed a gentleman. Moreover, both Aurora and Princess May were ladies of extremely discerning taste; how could they possibly fancy such a thing?

But to say he was respectable?

That didn’t seem quite right either, because Ban Lanmalock was certain—there were three ladies involved with him, and even the rumors involving Princess May were said to be endorsed by the Emperor himself, and the news was true.

Even if it was unbelievable before, when Ban Lanmalock saw the Queen Bee, he really didn’t know what to feel. Because all the rumors pointed to one thing: This Ancient Magic Warship was a gift Charles had given to Princess May.

What kind of gift was that!

He had stolen the flagship of the Golden Goat fleet!

And it didn’t require a crew!

Because this warship was the flagship of the Golden Goat fleet, the royal ship of Saint Michael!

Renowned across the Seven Seas.

One of the twelve Legendary Warships.

Ban Lanmalock really wanted to ask Charles, “How do you manage to make life so complicated?”

“Is there no limit to your showboating?”

Charles and Ban Lanmalock didn’t utter a word, just stood there. Ban Lanmalock had countless thoughts churning inside him, and Charles was also very nervous. He was worried that Ban Lanmalock might suddenly challenge him to a duel again.

Charles had neglected his cultivation recently, and his level was a bit behind Ban Lanmalock’s now.

Moreover, he didn’t have his Knight’s Spear with him.

Nor did he carry any Magic-Breaking Bombshell Bullets.

Relying solely on the Blood Rose and the two Red-Blue Rattlesnakes seemed a bit insufficient for a fight!

Although the Red-Blue Rattlesnakes were high-priced Extraordinary Weapons, the shortcoming of firearm-type Extraordinary Weapons was that their power depended on bullets. Charles couldn’t condense High Order Energy Bullets himself, and without the Magic-Breaking Bombshell Bullets, he couldn’t bring out the true power of these two Extraordinary Weapons.

Charles was pondering, how could he win based solely on swordsmanship?

Then he heard Ban Lanmalock say, “The Red Dragon Palace has given an order for me to follow your command from now on. May I ask, what are we going to do?”

Charles hadn’t expected that, aside from the Augusladin High Priest, he would have such an ally. This time, St. Michael Island was really blessed.

This was very much like Emperor Alfred Guillaume!
