I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 777 - 478 Give me 3 days
Chapter 777: Chapter 478 Give me 3 days
Chen Lun pulled his thoughts back and estimated the time, realizing that the ten-minute limit he had set for his visit was almost over. He sighed softly, crouched in front of Noah, and gently placed a hand on the young man’s shoulder as he said in a deep voice:
"Noah, I must go now, you might need to stay here a bit longer, but don’t worry, both your mother, Her Majesty Blaze, and I are trying to find a way to get you out..."
"I know... I trust you, Mr. Jack."
Noah seemed to sense the apology in Chen Lun’s tone, but he did not want Mr. Jack to worry about him, so he forced a smile and said:
"Please don’t tell Mother about my current state, okay? I have always... always been a concern to Her, but I don’t want to see Her saddened by me anymore."
"I promise you, Noah."
Chen Lun nodded gently.
Noah’s bright eyes, shining in the dark, conveyed his gratitude to Chen Lun.
Chen Lun took a deep breath, gave the young man one last look, and slowly stood up to leave. He could do nothing for Noah at the moment; the most urgent matter was to get him out as soon as possible.
With a heart full of heavy and complex thoughts, he made his way back, leaving the Sun Dungeon. He did not linger within the vicinity of the Royal Palace but headed straight for the Generous Church District.
A while later.
Just as he reached the archway to the Church District, Chen Lun was surprised to find a tall woman clad in a luxurious silver robe standing quietly next to a marble pillar, seemingly having waited for a long time.
"Greetings to Her Majesty Blaze."
Chen Lun took off his black hat, hanging it on his cane, then made a chest bow towards the silver-robed woman.
"There is no need for such formality, Jack."
The Silver Dragon Witch, with her face uncovered this time, stared at him with her heroic eyes, then said:
"I appreciate your writing to Rosa to let her inform me about what’s happening in the Royal City... Although I was aware that trouble was brewing here, I never thought that Noah would be involved and become the scapegoat."
She sighed, her face showing unmistakable worry.
Chen Lun pondered for a moment, then said solemnly:
"Your Majesty, I am very sorry that I could not take better care of Noah..."
Blaze shook her head, showing no sign of blame.
"It is his destiny, inevitable... Since I initially let Noah follow you, all this is the ordeal he needs to undergo. Clarence, ’God of Murals’, is known across the continent, yet few know the painstakingly long period he spent with Mr. Jing Yao."
The Witch’s gaze softened, showing relief as she looked at Chen Lun.
"I was not mistaken about you; you are worth following for a lifetime... But now, you seem to have encountered some difficulties as well."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Chen Lun did not pretend to be at ease, but rather acknowledged it openly.
His face grew stern as he stated:
"Although I am fully aware that Noah is innocent, the Royal Family will not accept this argument... Right now, Bixie Crost has become the stage for a power struggle between the Sun Royal Family and the Seven Gods Church, and Noah is just a sacrificial pawn to them."
"You are right, Jack."
Blaze said, as she looked towards the Sun Palace.
"Now, there is only one way to ensure Noah’s survival, and that is to make the Royal Family compromise." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Chen Lun frowned slightly.
Given his understanding of the Sun Royal Family, the most domineering family on the continent was the Tresor Family... Compromising with them would be very difficult.
Blaze paused briefly, then turned her gaze back to Chen Lun, met his eyes, and spoke softly:
"Our Silver Dragon Family, tracing back our lineage, is actually also a branch of the Hilbert Family... Although our ancestors did not accept the feudal appointments from the City of Shuoli, the current Queen Priscilla still holds our line in high regard. The reason is simple: unlike Tresor, Hilbert has long been split and decayed, so much so that the Constellation Royal Family is decrepit to the extent that they can barely gather a hundred people."
Chen Lun was slightly shocked, not expecting the governing class of the Southern Kingdom to have deteriorated to such an extent...nor that Noah had such an ancient bloodline connection.
From the records on the Monument of Destiny, he knew that Tresor, Matthaios, and Hilbert were direct descendants of the first human civilization on the continent, and hence the legitimate royal bloodlines.
’No wonder Her Majesty the Witch, along with the Constellation Sect, entered the Royal Palace, and even the Queen of Shuoli has sent down an incarnation...’
Chen Lun suddenly understood.
"Now you should understand why the Constellation Sect is helping me pressure the Royal Family... But this is still not enough. The Royal Family originally had the Judiciary and Sun Church as its staunch forces; now with the History and Ritual Association and Hailing Group siding with them... the Moon, Constellation, and Madman School alone are not enough to intimidate the Royal Family."
Blaze sighed.
"I am sorry, Your Majesty..."
Chen Lun said gravely.
He knew well that, despite the Silver Dragon Witch not mentioning the Generous Council, the truth was that Houston had already taken away his position as a municipal leader in the Royal City and clearly sided with the Prince, making their already disadvantaged position even more bleak in their attempts to save Noah.
"Jack, I have a proposal; I wonder if you agree."
Blaze suddenly changed her tone, her voice calm as she asked.
Chen Lun nodded slightly.
"Please speak, Your Majesty."
"I can persuade the Constellation Sect to help you remove Houston."
The Witch’s eyes gradually turned cold, even revealing a faint hint of killing intent.
