The Mighty Dragons Are Dead-Chapter 1065 - 1062 Quietness

The next moment, Bone Dragon Vinnie crouched down, mirroring Nimia the Giant Lion on the other side of the square.

They staunchly guarded the safety of the Royal Palace Square.

All eight dragons took their positions, making Sun Mountain, Moon Mountain, and the Sun Moon Star Palace, though not very tall, seem like a sanctum for humans and a sacred land for dragons.

They shone brightly and radiated magnificence.

Ach dismounted from Unicorn Charlie.

Charlie stepped gently into the void and without looking back, entered the Sun Moon Star Palace. It wasn’t Liszt’s mount, and it held in contempt such ostentatious displays by Liszt. Having delivered Ach had been more than enough; there was no need to maintain a facade for Liszt’s sake.

It wasn’t until the powerful creatures had lined up or departed that the crowd turned their gaze back to a man and woman walking arm-in-arm—a common nobility social etiquette for the opposite sexes—toward the podium. Ach, being petite and cloaked in a Magic Cloak, was not conspicuous.

However, Liszt, towering at one meter ninety-three, was markedly proud and transcendent.

Especially since he wore a Gemstone Crown on his head—the Gemstone Crown was usually in Ach’s custody and served as the King’s crown in crucial moments—with thirty-six gemstones of varying sizes and colors, lavishly adorning the crown and stealing all focus at a glance.

Beneath the crown was densely packed light-gold hair, naturally curly, and an extraordinarily handsome face that could make most women green with envy.

In his youth, Liszt had a softness on his face.

But now, at the age of twenty-four, Liszt had shed all traces of youthfulness, and his face bore sheer determination and a noble demeanor. About half a year ago, he had started to grow a beard—not the thick kind, with clean cheeks and only a circle around the lips and chin.

This circle of beard added mature masculine charm and heightened the majesty of a King.

He wore a suit of evening dress in the form of tailcoats, not in the conventional black and white, but a striking mix of gold, red, and black. Common folk wouldn’t be able to pull off such vibrant colors, yet with Liszt’s fine physique and temperament, coupled with the tailor’s clever design, he managed it flawlessly.

This was not traditional noble attire, nor was it that of the flamboyant King Flack·Abbaie, which made it seem somewhat peculiar to those in the square.

But solely the authority and demeanor of Liszt swiftly made everyone overlook the novelty of the dress. Their eyes fervently followed their own King ascending the platform of power, step by step.

Many also noticed the Thorn Greater Elf Jela strutting behind Liszt—Jela was quite famous, and everyone knew it was Liszt’s first Minor Elf, frequently mentioned in the many fabricated biographies of Liszt.

However.

Nobody really cared about Jela. They thought that Jela accompanying Liszt in the procession was just a matter of Liszt honoring the past. Jela herself was not particularly special—after all, Liszt owned three Dragon Elves, and no matter how excellent Jela was, she was just a Greater Elf.

Of course, Jela did not see it that way. She puffed out her chest and followed Liszt with pride, as if she were the protagonist about to receive the cheers of the crowd.

“Wow!”

“I must maintain a noble image, Liszt. Move aside a bit. Don’t block my flight path.”

Liszt did not hear Jela’s muttering. Even though he had prepared himself diligently for such an occasion, he still felt too excited to calm down. He maintained a calm and composed demeanor, delivered Ach to her place on the viewing platform, and then turned around to shove Jela into Ach’s arms.

“Stop causing trouble, Jela.” He sent a reprimand to Jela in his mind before stepping onto his own platform of power.

Facing the viewing platform and the entire Royal Palace Square, he took a deep breath.

He lifted the King’s Scepter that was embedded on the platform and held it in his hand—this was a scepter made from a Magic Metal Alloy, with no special abilities, merely a valuable decorative piece. But it symbolized the power of the King and was meant to be passed down through the generations.

Taking another deep breath, Liszt raised the King’s Scepter high in the air.

Then, in an undeniable tone, he declared, “My subjects, I am your King, Liszt Flame!”

Boom!

The entire square erupted at the start of Liszt’s self-introduction. Everyone began to cheer wildly, both Nobles and commoners alike. The thunderous roar, like an explosion, quickly submerged everything else, as if it were a sudden tsunami, wave after wave crashing against the unwavering Liszt.

He extended his right hand downward, signaling for the crowd to stop.

But the waves of cheers continued, one after another, with no intention of stopping—the stunning display of the eight dragons earlier had already pushed the grand ceremony to a climax, and the excited populace needed an outlet for their emotions. Liszt’s royal speech was just that outlet.

If it were a different King, they might have calmly waited for the people’s enthusiasm to run its course before delivering a long royal speech.

But Liszt was not a ordinary King. He was the powerful Dragon Knight who had founded the Flame Kingdom by his own hand, a Half-Step Barrier Knight who touched the existence of barriers. He was not used to waiting. When he wanted his subjects to be quiet, that will would not be easily shaken.

“Oh ho!”

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

“Yo ho!”

“Hu ho!”

“Wu yi ya!”

“Roar!”

The dragon’s roars suddenly rose from Sun Mountain and Moon Mountain—an awe-inspiring sound that penetrated the heavens and earth, swept through the Royal Palace Square in an instant, and effortlessly overshadowed the cheers of the people.

When the dragon’s roars faded,

there wasn’t a single person on the square who dared to cheer anymore.

Only the clear voice of Liszt slowly rose.

It clearly reached everyone’s ears: “As the sole master of the great seas, Lord of all islands, the Formless Dragon Knight, Fire Dragon Knight, Water Dragon Knight, Mountain Copper Dragon Knight, Grey Iron Dragon Knight, Bone Dragon Knight, Aluminum Dragon Knight, I declare to everyone in the Legendary Continent…”
