-The Azeroth Continent-

Ever since the meeting at the City of San Siro, the continent entered a period of real peace.

In the Chaos Era, the flames of war spread everywhere. Many civilians who were forced to move away from their homes finally got to go back or find a new home. The continent started to rest and recover.

Especially in the Northern Region and the Southern Region, changes were the most drastic. All the former power dynamics and structures completely reformed, and the various strange and unprecedented policies that the Human Emperor of the North established changed many people's perspectives and the structure of the society. The civilians in the Southern Region and Northern Region benefited the most from such changes since they were at the bottom of the society.

Such changes caused a series of chain reactions.

The most noticeable was the unprecedented vitality that human civilization showed.

The progression speed that the human civilization recently demonstrated was unheard of in the last 1,000 years. In various fields such as warrior energy, magic, agriculture, architecture, music, medicine, and arts grew rapidly like rockets, and many industries prospered.

The war, as well as the new policies that the Human Emperor of the North created, were seen as the catalyst for the growth.

Besides, the existence of the Northern Region Empire was a big deterrent. Since the Human Emperor of the North showed no intention of expanding his control and expressed his desire for peace, all the wars on the continent ended almost overnight. The battle-hungry empires such as Barcelona and Juventus had to hold their tails between their legs and act low-key.

No one wanted to ignite flames of war and anger the Human Emperor of the North. At this point, no one could bare the full-force strike of the Northern Region Empire

Now, even the Holy Church was on the side of the Northern Region Empire. Platini and Blatter's deaths and Stabila's return signaled the end of all conflicts between the Holy Church and the Northern Region Empire. The two forces were now in their "honeymoon".

If what was discussed during the meeting at the City of San Siro between the Human Emperor of the North, Pope Stabila, and the Continental Martial Saint was implemented, the Human Emperor of the North would also become the Pope of the Holy Church. Then, he would become the most powerful figure on the continent, and no one and no force could rival him.

Of course, some people and forces didn't want to see the Human Emperor of the North become stronger and stronger. They tried to instigate new conflicts between the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church, but such conspiracies all failed as the two forces squashed them without mercy.

Now, almost everyone on the continent was looking forward to the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church becoming one.

As time pa.s.sed by, the pre-arranged date that was agreed on during the meeting at the City of San Siro came.

On this day, the attention of the continent was completely drawn to the Holy Mountain at Sicily Island

According to the agreement, the old Pope Stabila was going to crown the Human Emperor of the North, and the latter was going to become the new Pope of the Holy Church.

This day was going to determine the fate of the continent and change the trajectory that it had for the last 1,000 years.

This day was going to be brilliant and recorded in history.

About half a month ago, the emperors of the super empires, the top-tier n.o.bles, and the famous masters all received the invitation from the Holy Church; the Holy Church hoped that these big figures could come to this crowning ceremony and witness this historical moment.

Many people held pride in the fact that they received the invitation. It meant that their status was acknowledged by the overlord of Azeroth.

In the last three days, Sicily Island became extremely packed and bustling.

In the last 1,000 years, this was the first time that so many non-members of the Holy Church appeared on Sicily Island.

                                                                               

Chapter 1232: A Similar Scene (Part Two)

                                                                             

G.o.dly knights who were in silver armor walked out in neat formations, and the white-robed priests sang holy spiritual songs.

The entire Sicily Island was engulfed in the silver light of victory, and angels could be vaguely seen dancing in the clouds with their wings open.

Under everyone's stares, Human Emperor Alexander of the North landed on the island.

This was an unprecedented ceremony

Except for old Pope Stabila who couldn't come out in person to welcome the Human Emperor of the North due to his weak body, old age, and deteriorating health, all other high-level members of the Holy Church appeared to receive the Human Emperor of the North as subjects.

On the side of the Northern Region Empire, out of the 12 Gold Saints of the 12 Constellations who were the legendary guardians of Sky City and had been following Alexander since he was the King of Chambord, eight of them came. Standing beside these masters, the masters of the [Black-Cloth Shrine] and the Dark Palace of the Northern Region Empire that recently became famous all appeared on Sicily Island.

It was clear that both parties placed great emphasis on this crowning ceremony.

The most prestigious, most powerful, and most influential figures on the continent gathered on Sicily Island. If these people were all wiped out, the entire continent would fall into instant chaos.

However, it was clear that such a possibility didn't even exist.

At this stage, everything was prepared, and everyone was waiting for the right time to come.

On this day, ocean tides surged, and the sun rose from the eastern horizon above the ocean. When the first strike of sunlight hit the peak of the Holy Mountain, the crowning ceremony began.

The majestic silver-armored G.o.dly knights rode on white warhorses, and they toured around Sicily Island on the sand. The silver and red flags fluttered in the morning wind like many flying G.o.dly dragons. The priests were singing holy spiritual songs on the stairs that led to the Holy Palace, and the songs echoed on the land and the ocean.

The beautiful girls and cute children in the choir also sang along, making the ceremony seem even more holy and pure.

This was the mandatory process that the new popes must take before being officially crowned.

At the same time, the top-tier n.o.bles and famous masters on the continent gathered before the Holy Palace on the peak of the Holy Mountain.

Under the illumination of the first streak of sunlight, the 1,001 white jade steps emitted a holy glamour.

This was indeed a holy place.

Everyone felt like their minds were purified again and again while being engulfed in the holy spiritual songs and white light.

Further away on the white steps, the masters of the Northern Region Empire appeared one after another. They were the most loyal warriors, and they stood on both sides of the steps, creating a path of honor. While single-kneeling and raising their weapons high, they looked like G.o.ds who were receiving their lord with powerful energy surges around them.

Finally, Fei appeared before the first step of the staircase that had 1,001 steps.

He was in a pure white robe, and he was holding Queen Angela who was in a black long dress with his left hand and Queen Elena who was in red battle armor with his right hand. Walking side by side, these three people attracted the world's attention. While the holy spiritual songs resonated in the sky, they slowly stepped onto the staircase!

The bell in the Holy Palace sounded at this moment.

Every time Fei and his two queens walked higher by one step, the bell would sound once.

The emperors, n.o.bles, and masters from various empires and forces who were on both sides of the staircase all stood up; no one dared to remain seated at this moment. After all, the man and the two women who were walking past them were the most influential figures on the continent.

At this moment, almost everyone felt an illusion; they felt like this scene was familiar.

When people looked at Fei and Angela, this feeling intensified. They were sure that this scene appeared before, and…
