Matthias's eyes turned cold, but after a few moments of silence, he stood up and lowered Mackie's longsword with his hand. He then said with a smile, "You are indeed Gael's son; your temperament is quite similar to his."Since that's the case, I won't pressure you any further. But Isaac, you need to promise me one thing!"Isaac breathed a small sigh of relief and nodded. "Please, Bishop, go ahead.""Before the regime changes, do not enter the Royal City. I will arrange for someone to watch over your mother," Matthias said in a serious tone.Isaac had a puzzled look on his face. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he looked at Matthias. After thinking for a moment, he decided not to say anything and just nodded."Good then, we're off." As Matthias finished speaking, he disappeared from Isaac's sight in a flash.What did he mean when he said, "Before the regime changes?"Isaac had some vague suspicions about certain matters, but he couldn't be sure. He would just have to wait and see.
Isaac hesitated for a moment, a look of suspicion immediately appearing in his eyes.Next to him, Skylar was utterly shocked. Eldorado wanted to appoint Isaac as the major general, put him in charge of the twelve cities, and even wanted her to marry him!Evie nodded slightly as she looked at Isaac’s back, but she didn't say anything.The room suddenly fell into an unusual silence. Giffard sidestepped and sat down on a chair, his eyes slightly narrowed and a smile on his face, as if he was certain that Isaac would agree.After all, such an honor has not been granted since Eldorado came to power."But, I already have a wife," Isaac suddenly said with a smile, turning his head to look at Evie.When Sklyar heard that, her heart suddenly sank. For some reason, she suddenly felt a hint of sadness.Giffard cheerfully said, "That's not an issue. You just need to make the Princess the main wife."Isaac laughed. Giffard was taken aback for a moment, but then he laughed heartily as well.
Giffard sat beside Eldorado in fear for nearly two hours.Isaac's responses had all been conveyed to Eldorado, but he still hadn't spoken.Eldorado closed the last document and turned to Giffard, asking softly, "Giffard, this idea was yours. Now that Isaac disagrees, how do you plan to handle this?"Clyfford hasn't seemed to be in a good mood lately."Giffard furrowed his brows and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that Isaac is indifferent to power and prestige. He just wants to live a carefree and leisurely life."The Kingdom of Vriweth is vast and boundless, and it can definitely accommodate a wanderer like him."Eldorado frowned slightly and asked, "Wanderer?""I mean that the general's mansion should let Isaac's mother go. When the Princess returns, it will be up to her to decide what to do."In the long run, it is more meaningful to maintain a good relationship with this person than to be on bad terms with him."Giffard's words left Eldorado silent for a long while. Finally,
Whether it were Talbot or Clyfford, their ability to secure a position just below the top but above millions in the Kingdom of Vriweth relied on more than just their skills.As soon as Clyfford spoke, Talbot immediately sensed that something was off.Eldorado had given Giffard a royal decree, which he could not reject and change.Clyfford, being a Regent, could not possibly be unaware of this directive from Eldorado.When someone asked a question they clearly knew the answer to, there must be something fishy going on!"The Chief Minister has already passed on His Majesty's orders to me. There isn't anyone in the world who dares to defy His Majesty's commands, right? Oh wait, Isaac is an exception!" Talbot said with a light laugh, his eyes fixed on Clyfford."I'm not sure what instructions Lord Hackworth has for me. Could you please let me know so that I can follow them accordingly?"Clyfford heard this and burst into laughter. Pointing at Talbot, he said, "You're way smarter tha
With a thunderous dragon roar, a massive golden dragon erupted from the Skyrend Sword in Isaac's hand. The dragon's head aimed downward, charging straight toward Laurie below."Kill him!" Laurie never expected Isaac to appear at the Stackhouse family mansion. As soon as he realized what was happening, he let out a loud roar, and his spiritual energy surged as he swiftly dodged to the right.A five-clawed golden dragon crashed into the middle of the backyard, unleashing terrifying golden spiritual energy. Aside from Laurie, two expert guardians nearby who didn't escape in time were shaken so violently that they coughed up blood and were thrown backward.Laurie swiftly dodged into the corridor on the right. His eyes were filled with hostility, but deep down, they also showed traces of fear.Isaac defeated Zeno in Black Desert to gain military control and also successfully overcame the Kingdom of Easteria's Black Tiger Legion. Naturally, Laurie had heard about these events.He absolu
Isaac had previously promised Matthias that he wouldn't enter Royal City before the major event he mentioned.But after receiving the message from Roman, Isaac did not hesitate and came over immediately.After Talbot had somewhat recovered, he took Isaac to the general's mansion.The general's mansion covered a vast area, with more than ten administrative offices. There were over a dozen buildings dedicated to Internal Affairs alone. Outsiders would probably get lost trying to find their way around.After Talbot and Roman brought Isaac into the general's mansion, they kept walking further inside until they reached the middle of a low, elongated building.In front of the two rooms stood eight guards, and another four were positioned inside and outside the archway through which they entered.Roman waved his hand, and the eight guards immediately turned and stepped aside."Sir Isaac, please proceed!"Isaac quickly walked up to one of the doors. As he was about to push the door ope
Before dawn, two eagles slowly landed in front of the tavern. Isaac, along with his mother and Alcott, walked straight inside.Before Isaac left, he had asked the attendant for two additional rooms.As soon as Isaac reached the second floor, he looked up and saw Evie standing in the middle of the hallway."Evie, why aren't you asleep?" Isaac asked, slightly surprised.Evie looked up at Raelynn with a hint of shyness. She seemed like she wanted to say something but stopped herself.After a few seconds, Evie walked over and stopped in front of Raelynn. She then knelt down on both knees, bowed her head, and said, "Hello mother, I am Evie Lopez, your daughter-in-law."Raelynn suddenly froze and looked up at Isaac."She's the Evie I told you about." Isaac nodded.Raelynn opened her mouth wide but couldn't say a word for a while. Then, she quickly stepped forward to help Evie up. She said excitedly, "Evie, Evie, oh my! Hurry and get up.""Isaac, look at the state I'm in, and you sti
The Longevity Palace was actually a newly constructed, gigantic ancestral hall, intended for enshrining the ancestral tablets of the Lahad family. If any member of the royal family committed a wrongdoing, they are punished by being confined within the Longevity Palace.The inspection was essentially Eldorado and Nathanael checking the construction progress of the palace and identifying areas that needed improvement.Inside the carriage, Nathanael looked at Eldorado with a sense of unease and apprehension."Hmm, she should be returning to the palace soon," Eldorado said with a nod."With Skylar back, we can finally relax," Nathanael said with a smile. He picked up a piece of green pastry from the small table in front of him and carefully offered it to Eldorado."Father, this is a special chilled pastry from Lycoania City. It was delivered to the East Palace last night, and I brought it this morning. Please give it a try."Eldorado glanced at the pastry and took a small bite. He ta
