Fire Mage

Chapter 239: Sun God

Emilia and others stepped on the tiled floor, started walking in, and soon appeared at the center of the main hall.

"Greetings, Mr. Oswald," Emilia gave a light bow and greeted him with a smile.

At that moment, Archbishop Abel and Andrew bent their waist a bit, greeted him, and looked around the hall in silence.

Although they were suspicious of his identity, none dare to take this old man lightly.

On the other hand, Oswald nodded his head and spoke in a calm voice.

"Have a seat."

Emilia and others nodded their heads and sat on the opposite chesterfield sofa.

At that moment, a black-haired maid came from the kitchen with a plate full of sweats and placed it on the coffee table.

It was etiquette to serve sweet items for the guests in the Iron Kingdom.

As the maid walks away, Emilia extended her hand, picked up a round-shaped white cake, and moved it to her mouth.

A pure sweetness entered her mouth, causing her eyes to widen a bit.

"You guys added ice nectar in this sweet?" She couldn't help but show an astonished look on her face.

Ice nectars were an expensive sweet item in the whole World and would rarely appear in the auction!

"Jessie must have brought it using her connection with the bank manager." Oswald made a proud-looking face and soon turned his face serious.

"May I know the reason for your sudden visit?" He asked while zeroing his gaze on Archbishop Abel.

"I came here to check on Destiny Lady's health condition." He paused for a moment before glancing at his younger sister and added with a smile.

"She and her teammate came to look for the second Princess Rhea Boneflare."

"May I know the reasons?" Oswald's gaze shifted towards Emilia.

At that moment, Emilia hesitated for a moment and then asked.

"Have you heard of an artifact called 'Ruler's Ring'?"

'Ruler's Ring? Yeah, I did hear something about it from Charles.' He frowned a bit and soon shook his head.

"No. This is the first time I'm hearing about such a thing."

Upon hearing his words, Emilia furrowed her brows and started to explain.

"A few days ago, I looked into Iron Kingdom's Royal family history and learned that this Ruler's Ring has some connection with the ancient spirits and the legacy left behind by the First King of Iron. To become a true monarch, the successor must gather four elemental rings, made contact with the corresponding ancient spirit, and then gain the approval of all four ancient spirits. As long as the successor gains the approval of these four spirits, these four elemental rings will merge and form into a unique ring. They call this ring 'Ruler's Ring'." She suddenly paused for a moment to take a deep breath and then continued with a solemn look on her face.

"From the records, I can vaguely guess that this merged 'Ruler's Ring' seems to have the coordinates of the First King's legacy. As long as Rhea gets her hands on these four elemental rings, her personal strength might also increase and her chance to become the next monarch will also rise."

'Oh? How did she know so much about this ring? Interesting…' Oswald stared at her for a moment and soon asked.

"What's your motive? You wouldn't give me this important information for free, right?"

As if she was waiting for his question, she crossed her legs together and started to speak.

"Five years ago, the assassins who killed Rhea's family also took the rings from the first princess and 'escaped' before the reinforcement arrives. But we all know that the ones who assassinated the royal family are not outsiders, but their own subordinates. This includes the second consort and third consort, their family members, and nobles. If my guess is not wrong, these rings must be with one of the other three candidates. We will help your disciple ascend to the throne, while you have to promise us that you will return to the Life Church once the promising date is over. There are only 6 more years after all."

"If Ancient Mages refuses, we will not hesitate to use force," Andrew added with a confident look on his face.

A frown appeared on Oswald's forehead.

'So, they already confirmed that I'm the Holem's Crown, huh.' But he wasn't anxious at all.

He leaned his back against the sofa, stretched his hand before placing them on the arms, and curled his lips upward.

"You guys still don't know about my grandson's current strength, do you?" His question startled them greatly.

Before Emilia and others could respond, Oswald let out a mocking laugh and added.

"He is a Rank-4 Blaze Sorcerer now."

As Emilia heard those words, her whole body went stiff.

"Impossible!" Both Emilia and Archbishop Abel shouted in shock and disbelief.

"Wherever you believe it, or not, the truth is right in front of you. He took less than 4 years to advance from Rank-1 to Rank-4 Mage. A peerless genius. No, I would call him a prodigy. Now, do you guys really think he won't surpass your expectations?"

In truth, Oswald knew that Charles would need more than a decade for his next advancement.

'Even if he doesn't rank up in the due time, he will never give up on me.'

At that moment, Archbishop suddenly closed his eyes and began to chant in an ancient language.

Oswald, too, noticed his action and smiled.

He knew what this Archbishop was doing and snickered inwardly.

'Trying to find the reason for his terrifying advancement? Steel your heart then.'

Meanwhile, Archbishop Abel continued to chant for a whole minute and suddenly stood up from his seat.

"Irregular!" His eyes widened in shock.

"Right. Unlike this crippled one man, that lad is a real monster in human's skin. Do you guys dare to use force on him now?" Oswald smirked.

As they heard his words, Emilia's and Archbishop Abel's expressions turned ugly.

Irregular!

Although the Life Church and all other Churches act high and mighty, they were not invincible in Edhen World.

Even Runeth wasn't considered a fully-fledged irregular.

He still hadn't touched the realm of the present time to change his future constantly!

But Charles was different.

He had the system cube!

It could change his fate constantly and also help him control his fate!

As long as he didn't encounter any terrifying existences like 'Divine,' he would grow at a fast pace without any hindrance.

His actions would always cause a drastic change to the whole World.

At that moment, a terrifying legend about another individual appeared in their minds.

'Sun God!'

Till now, no one knew where he came from.

But less than two years, he became a Rank-6 Existence and entered the realm of Legendaries.

Then, he spent another two years in Edhen World and became a Demi-God!

After that, he participated in the main planar battle and killed countless legendary and Demi-God Demons.

But too many Demons walked out from the Abyss and caused a slaughter.

There were even quite a few Demon Gods who participated in that battle.

Then, a miracle happened.

Sun God suddenly gained some deep enlightenment in the middle of the fight and ascended.

He ascended to Godhood just like that!

Like an actual Sun, he stood in front of the main portal and started burned the Demi-God level demons like ants.

Even the Demon Gods felt puny in front of such a newcomer.

A legendary battle took place.

Sun God killed four foreign Demon Gods in that battle and also gained the title of Godslayer!

He then gained the approval of Edhen's Will and became its protector during the end of the last planar invasion!

Not only that, but he also created the planar alliance and forced every Lawful God to abide by the rules.

Although Charles's achievement wasn't that great, they didn't dare to make a bet on such a possibility.

As the thoughts whirled in Archbishop Abel's mind, he sat down with a disbelieving look on his face and finally spoke.

"We won't pursue this matter any longer."

There was a trace of fear and anxiety that appeared in his tone.
