Chapter 402: Identity Struggle
Chapter 402: Identity Struggle
"My clan doesn't have a queen, so where does the prince come from?"
"That's enough. Are we, the great mistresses, not worthy of him? If you think it's inappropriate, just let the human wizard choose a few more as compensation for him. I don't mind anyway."
In the meeting room, everyone was arguing, and after a while, someone actually came up with a more reliable suggestion, which was approved by many of the great mistresses present.
It is to let human wizards act as 'Prince'.
In the Comorian Empire, no matter how high the status of a prince is, he is just a vassal of a woman, more like a lucky man who has gotten lucky, and people will not think too much about him.
"That's a good idea. Let him come to my Twilight Tribe. I, Ye Lulu, am willing to accept him."
"I agree, count me in as Regina."
Everyone present knew that the human wizard was quite powerful. He could use spatial means, controlled the Silver Moon Blade, and had two pseudo-lord-level guards.
Most mistresses would not turn away such a man.
The only worrying thing is that the human wizard might not agree. After all, there is an essential difference between the Queen's prince and the Grand Mistress's 'pseudo-prince', and the Queen needs a fourth-level strong man to take the position.
Some people have set their sights on Lulucia. Among all the mistresses, Lulucia is the most noble in terms of bloodline and identity.
There is another fact that one has to admit, Lulucia's charm is indeed unparalleled, and any man who has met her probably won't refuse her.
"Hehe, are you serious? Can my charm really rank first in the empire?" When someone recognized her charm, Lulucia smiled brightly with curved eyebrows.
"So what? As the Speaker of the Imperial Parliament, shouldn't you do your part for the Empire?"
"But what if someone says I'm an old woman?"
"How is that possible? Speaker, you are not only extremely beautiful, but also in your prime."
"Hehe, what about you? You all agree with this, right? Say it one by one, take your time, there's no rush."
"Ah-yeah, yes."
There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. In this country where women are the masters, the mistresses usually care about appearance and charm, and they never admit that there is anyone better than themselves.
At this moment, Lulucia undoubtedly seized a good opportunity.
Just when many people made up their minds and were ready to pinch their noses to express their agreement, the high priestess suddenly stood up, and she obviously had something else to say.
"Stop messing around. With that human wizard's personality, it's impossible for him to be your 'prince'. The temple will never allow it."
"According to the teachings of the Mother Goddess and the long-standing rules of our clan, he can only be the Holy Son of the Temple. This is indisputable."
"As for your concerns, I guarantee in the name of the high priest that I will give you a satisfactory explanation. Please listen to me in detail below—"
In the meeting hall of the imperial court, Kolebashy's words, which gradually progressed from the simplest to the most profound, finally convinced the other great mistresses and made them willing to cooperate to solve the current big problem together.
The matriarchs of all tribes reached a rare consensus.
……
Time flies by.
In less than ten days, the temple held two unusual appointments. One was public and grand, facing the entire Yuyue City and even the entire Komor Empire.
After this appointment, the night elves had one more saint, which made the people excited.
The other time was kept secret, with only a few witnesses, including High Priest Kolebashy, Speaker Lulucia, Saint Jenny, and Leader of the Temple's Dark Guards Norma.
"Son, since your duties need to be performed in secret, your identity cannot be publicly announced for the time being. Do you have any objection?"
"High Priest, I completely agree with what you said."
Seeing Ivan agree, Kolebash breathed a sigh of relief.
She had put a lot of thought into creating a secret temple position, in which the Son of God was responsible for making judgments in secret, either against the disloyal priests and officials of the temple or against the lawless people of the empire.
The only requirement was that it be done in secret. To show her sincerity, she also asked the Dark Guards to do their best to cooperate with the Son of God.
Kolebashy didn't seem to have thought that for foreign men like Ivan, they would attract attention wherever they went, and it would be difficult to judge anyone secretly.
Of course, this could also be her intention.
As for Ivan, he certainly wouldn't mind such things. Due to the face of the Mother Goddess of Darkness, he couldn't refuse the position of the Son of God, so he just let everything take its course.
Everyone was happy about this appointment.
"Holy Son, please come to the Imperial Court when you have time." Lulucia's eyes seemed to be able to speak.
"It's my pleasure." This is the Speaker of the Empire, and the power he controls is extraordinary. Ivan certainly won't neglect him.
"You may not know that in the previous meeting, you almost became someone's 'prince'. What a pity! The high priest was too cruel." Lulucia blinked, her eyes shining.
Hearing this, Kolebashy's eyes twitched.
She knew this old woman well. What she was brooding over was definitely not the prince, but the title of "the most beautiful woman in the empire". She blamed her for ruining her good fortune with her words, and she probably wanted to make things difficult for herself.
"Prince? Then you are wrong. I already have two wives at home, so I am not qualified to be anyone's prince." Ivan looked her up and down and said very honestly.
When she heard his words, Lulucia's face showed obvious surprise. She obviously didn't expect him to answer like that.
"Mr. Speaker, the testimony is over. You should return to the imperial court. I'm sorry I can't see you off." Kolebashy said, trying hard to suppress a smile.
"Son Ivan, you are a very interesting person. Don't forget what you promised. Remember to come to the imperial court to find me. I'm always waiting for you." Lulucia still maintained the demeanor of a speaker and left after leaving a few words.
Afterwards, the others also dispersed.
As the days passed, the appearance of the Son of God did not cause any waves.
During this period, there was indeed news that a man had obtained a holy weapon bestowed by God.
The high priest obviously knew how to confuse people.
With the cooperation of other great mistresses, a lot of true and false news were released. Coupled with the popularity of the saint, the news that a man obtained the holy weapon was quickly regarded as a rumor, and everyone who heard it just laughed it off.
Ivan didn't care much about this situation and chose to let it go.
However, he was not in a hurry to leave, nor was he in a hurry to do business. Instead, he studied the two moon blades while studying the Komor Empire. Such a large empire, a race that existed for nearly ten thousand years, there were too many things worth exploring.
There is also the underground world where the empire is located, which is also worth taking the time to explore.
He will also try to complete the Five-Leaf Spear's mission and attempt to open up an underground settlement for humans, which will allow him to use his current identity to collect information.
Although the position of the Holy Son does not have great power, it is a high enough position and he will not hold it in vain.
Ivan was not in a hurry to leave or do anything, but someone was anxious. That person was the high priest.
The high priest had been hoping that the Son of God would go away all the time, but recently he had become leisurely and acted as if he was going to stay for a long time.
More than two months later, the high priest finally couldn't hold back any longer and took the initiative to talk to Ivan.
"Your Highness, please don't be busy now."
"No problem. The high priest came to my residence in person. No matter how busy I am, I have to make time for it."
At this time, Ivan was in a flower hall, which was part of the Holy Son's palace. Seeing Kolebashy coming, he waved his hand and the silver moon blade floating in front of him flew behind him and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After research, he found that the Moon Blade had a property that it could transform into a pattern and attach to the back, which was very strange.
A hint of strangeness flashed in Kolebash's eyes. This was the holy weapon of the night elves, but now it was held by a foreign man. She sighed secretly, and hurriedly gathered her thoughts, preparing to talk business in order to send this saint away.
