Chapter 957 – Touring an Old Place
Three days later, Fei appeared in Dual-Flag City, the biggest city by the border between the Zenit Empire and the Jax Empire.
This was the place where the king led troops to for the first time.
About a year had passed since then, and the Zenit Empire and the Jax Empire were now at peace. As a result, the border was calm, and Dual-Flag City got the rest it needed, looking fresher and more vibrant compared to a year ago.
Although Fei hadn’t been here for a long time, his stories were still being passed around. It felt like he had retired, yet his legends were still being recited.
“You guys didn’t know! When Prince Fairenton of Jax surrounded the city with tens of thousands of soldiers, Dual-Flag City was in dire danger! The dumb mayor and the nobles couldn’t do anything and were useless! General Ribry dashed into the enemies and tried to kill their commander without worrying about his own safety. Alone, he killed his way through the enemies, but he got knocked back by that Fairenton and was severely injured; he was about to be killed! In fact, the enemy soldiers already shouted that they were going to conquer the city and kill all the living creatures inside. At that critical moment, the King of Chambord finally arrived. The King of Chambord… tsk! He was fearless and invincible! His magnificence stunned the enemies! Just himself, he was unstoppable and ran loose in the formations of close to 100,000 enemies, and he killed hundreds of commanders. Blood formed rivers wherever he went. Then, on the hill outside the city, he knocked away and injured Prince Fairenton, whose nickname was [Star on the Cultivation Path], with three strikes, saving Ribry from the hands of the enemies. Hehe, I was fortunate enough to witness that battle with my own eyes on the defense wall. That day, King Alexander of Chambord terrified the enemies! In front of close to 100,000 enemies, he asked the question ‘Who dares to stop me?’ three times, and no one dared to respond. Then, His Majesty laughed three times and left slowly and steadily! He can be called an invincible god!”
-Dual-Flag City-
When Fei, Angela, and Elena walked past a little tavern, they heard a traveling poet telling the story of that battle in a resonating tone. Clearly, the story was modified and artistically exaggerated, and the people listening to the story in the shop were thrilled. Even the street vendors and pedestrians stood by the entrance and listened attentively.
“Hehe, there was such an incident, but this is a bit too exaggerated.”
Seeing the teasing smiles on his two queens’ faces, Fei’s vanity was greatly satisfied, and he acted humble, which was rare to see.
However, what he said caused trouble. The people who were listening to the story all turned around and stared at him, and anger could be seen in their eyes.
A hot-blooded young man clenched his fists, making a series of cracking noises. He looked at Fei up and down and said in anger, “You don’t look like a local. What do you know? The King of Chambord is powerful and invincible! Everyone knows it in Dual-Flag City. What is there to exaggerate? Hmph! I advise you to be careful in the city. If you run into someone who has a short temper, the ignorant things that you said would have earned you a beating!”
What this young man said resonated with others in the area.
“Yeah! King of Chambord His Majesty is the savior of the hundreds of thousands of people in Dual-Flag City. You are still young, and all your pubic hair hasn’t grown out yet. What do you know? Stop saying nonsense!”
“Nevermind! Let’s ignore him. This guy is clearly a useless young nobleman! He is just wandering around with his two pretty maids. Hmph! King of Chambord His Majesty hates this kind of people! That day, many wastrels like him were killed, and blood formed rivers. How dare he say bad things about the King of Chambord? He is tired of living!”
“Yeah! You are from another city! What do you know? Even His Majesty’s former enemy, Prince Fairenton of Jax, had sighed and said that he will never invade Dual-Flag City as long as His Majesty is still a member of the Zenit Empire. Who could rival such a hero?”
Facing the stirred-up crowd, Fei dragged his two queens and fled.
After coming to the Azeroth Continent, the king had never been in such an awkward situation. He was cussed at and pointed at, but he couldn’t really refute. While they ran, his two gorgeous queens laughed and teased him.
Fei came to Dual-Flag City to find one person.
By using this opportunity, he took his two queens on this field trip to spend more time with them and relax.
The three of them didn’t want to alert too many people, so they didn’t bring any guards. Besides, Fei and Elena’s strength were high enough that they didn’t need guards.
They came to the city riding on Blacky, and the three hooligan-like dragons followed along. When they were close, they descended near a forest. The four demon beasts went to wander around, and the three of them walked into the city.
When they arrived, Fei didn’t hurry and find that person. Instead, he wandered around with his two queens, and that happened.
It was an interesting incident, and it made them want to look around more.
Dual-Flag City was a giant city on the border. Although it wasn’t as fancy and prosperous as St. Petersburg and Chambord City, it had unique customs and traditions. Places like the free-trade market in the center of the city and the random items from various empires were all quite interesting.
The three walked on the streets and merged into the crowd. They looked around and threw all the worries to the back of their minds. They were having a lot of fun.
Right now, Dual-Flag City was well managed by Scar-faced General Ribry; the military was well trained, the economy was booming, and the safety was high. The residents enjoyed their lives, and they attributed 80 percent of this onto Fei. That was why the residents and merchants in the city always thought back to the King of Chambord and his kind help.
Inside Dual-Flag City, the name ‘King of Chambord’ was treated like the name of a god. As a result, even Chambordians had higher-status in this place, more welcomed than others.
Fei, Angela, and Elena wandered around and enjoyed this time from the morning to the afternoon. Since they got married, the king had been busy. This was rare that they got the chance to spend time with each other, so Elena and Angela were pleased.
After sunset, the three went to the night market. Instead of troubling Ribry and other officials, they found a good hotel in the city and rested.
When it was deep into the night, Fei got out alone and dashed toward the water well area in the northern region of the city.
Although more than a year had passed, Fei was still familiar with everything here.
He easily dodged the patrolling soldiers and entered the mysterious and chilly underground ocean through a water well.
More than a year ago, Fei met Emperor Yassin who was traveling in disguise in the Mythical Palace at the bottom of this ocean, and he obtained the [Sky Castle] and the [Throne of Chaos]. Also, he found the [Mythical Altar] in the core, level 36 region and purified the Worldstone, finally able to save fainted Angela and Elena.
Now touring this old place again, Fei was a little sentimental.
