Chapter 40 . Triumphant Sovereign Kang Chul-In

“Waawwww… . . !!!”

“Kang Chul-In, Your Majesty, hooray! Hurray!”

“Your Majesty has defeated the evil monsters!”

“Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!”

The people of Laputa cheered enthusiastically like crazy .

Kang Chul-In shone as a hero in the people’s eyes .

/p>

How troubled you are because of the a.s.sault of the wicked Peac.o.c.k Dragon .

The fear that it might hurt them or their family, was beyond imagination .

The Peac.o.c.k Dragon, source of their fear, the two of them was dragged in by the men of the Sovereign . Even with the head shattered . No wonder that Kang Chul-In looked like a hero .

Besides, look at the stunning imposing appearance .

Although Peac.o.c.k Dragon is a subspecies of dragons, but it is definitely a dragon .

Even though he hunted down such monsters, moreover two of them, Kang Chul-In was expressionless and wearied . He even showed they were not a big deal .

Could you not respect such a Sovereign? Could you not love him? No matter what is Kang Chul-In’s nature, in the eyes of his people now, he became a foremost king that will not appear again in history for the second time .

On the other hand, the adventurers were still astonished .

“Actually, what is the true ident.i.ty of General?”

“Who are these people?”

“Oh my gosh… There was such a castle in Pangea Continent…”

“Majesty? Do you mean The General is a real king?”

Everything was doubtful .

Laputa Fortress, The People of this Land, Kang Chul-In’s real ident.i.ty, etc… Lots of things were confusing the adventurers . Moreover, because there was no one who can explain it, it was natural that the frustration would grow like a s...o...b..ll over time .

“Wow… Although I don’t know, but I can see that General was really great . Is he coming from Royal Family? I think even the Queen of England was not as popular as him . ”

“I think so… Where is it… . Ah! Wouldn’t Mr . Kim from the north enjoy it too?”

“This idiot! He’s a dictator! Do you call that as popular?”

“Oops!”

“Look at those people . Look at their expressions . Everyone is just looking at the General . I don’t know whether The General is the king of these people . ”

“d.a.m.n it! As long as that man is an earthling… Ah! What, What is that!”

The curiosity and the conversations of the adventurers was just up to there .

“Kyak!”

“The brave warriors ~”

“Thank you! Thank you very much!”

“Come here~ Let’s dance together with me ~”

The ladies of Laputa clung on to the adventurers .

The Adventurers were also heroes for the Laputa’s people . It was reasonable for the ladies to cling on the proud and amazing adventurers .

/p>

“It’s cool!”

“Haha! It was nothing!”

“Thank you, thank you very much . ”

“No, I just did what I had to do . ”

Warm scenes could be seen here and there .

“Young man ~ How can you be so strong? Look at these arms!”

“That, that is… errr…”

“Huh! Where are you going, young man? Young man!”

Dangerous scenes were also produced .

The condition was good .

By eliminating the evil monsters, The Sovereign proved his ability while the adventurers were given a very warm welcome . There is no one who is not happy, everyone was satisfied .

“The crisis has pa.s.sed . ”

Kang Chul-In watched these scenes silently from the top of the white horse that he usually ride on . Although actually he also was in a good mood, but he did not show it . Being a Sovereign was generally a heavy duty .

“Your… Majesty…?”

“Your Majesty, please give us a chance to celebrate you victory . ”

When Kang Chul-In quietly watched the festive atmosphere, a group of ladies stepped forward into the procession . They were the young ladies of Laputa .

“Hmm?”

Kang Chul-In was embarra.s.sed for a moment .

“Why are there so many?”

It seemed that all ladies from teens and twenties have come to him . The ladies who have come to Kang Chul-In were much more outstanding than the ladies who have come to the adventurers .

“Your Majesty… This is the watch that my late grandfather wore… . ”

“This is a 77 year old Mandrake Liquor . ”

“For the Lord, I devote this body and heart… . ”

“This is a ring that descended from my ancestors for generations . ”

Various ladies gave offering to Kang Chul-In .

There are diverse group .

The ladies with pure heart, the ladies full of l.u.s.t, the ladies trying to get a chance to succeed, and so on… There were quite varied in goals and desires .

/p>

“Tribute . ”

Kang Chul-In opened his mouth .

“I will accept your heart only . But… . ”

Those who watched him saying this unexpected remark were surprised .

Did he refuse the offering?

Refusing the offerings which offered voluntarily and not by force was a pretty exceptional event . Moreover, ignoring the sincerity of the ladies who offered the tribute was a problem .

“It is not the time to take them now . ”

However, Kang Chul-In had a thought and made a wise judgement .

It didn’t matter with the offerings .

It was Sovereign’s right to receive offerings from the subordinates .

But, the things that weighed his mind the most was the place and the ladies as the subject who gave the offerings .

There is no position that needs someone to be careful and aware of other’s gaze, as much as Sovereign . Those in high status are all like that, but especially Sovereign is the highest position, he had to do it more .

/p>

“There is no free things in the world . Even if it is not a big thing for me, but they are precious things for them . Besides, if that position is open to the public, there will be troublesome things . Every single act of my life here is going to be interpreted as the official Sovereign . ”

For example, let’s say that Kang Chul-In receive the watch from the lady an with orange hair . So, what will happen?

It was the thing that her late-grandfather wore . Despite the price, that watch contains a symbolic meaning . Maybe the lady with orange hair would think that Kang Chul-In accepted her heart .

What if he take the ring that descended for generations?

The lady who offered that ring laughed, but showed her inner feelings in a glimpse . Perhaps she had been pushed by her parents to come out .

What if he takes everything?

If he takes everything like that, it would make gossip . How does he deal with the ladies who offered their body and heart? That would be more troublesome .

The person who became a Sovereign had to doubt even the simple tributes as being suspicious . There were many ladies with pure motives, but the problem is the haughty things within them . Who will be Kang Chul-In’s woman also could be a problem .

Of course, there must be the kind heart within them .

However, it would be unfair to receive only the offerings of a specific individual . But it was not easy to not receive any of it at all . It was obviously a tiring situation in many ways .

Therefore, Kang Chul-In had to show his wisdom .

“You . ”

Kang Chul-In’s finger pointed at the impressive girl with maroon hair . People’s gaze turned to the girl whom Kang Chul-In pointed at once .

“Pardon!”

The surprised girl got in the wind .

“My, my Lord, I… . !”

Rustler’s daughter, Lana, was amazed and confused .

“I will accept yours . That tribute, gave it to me . ”

Said Kang Chul-In .

“My, my Lord… This… is very… . tacky…”

“It’s fine . ”

“Then… My…my lord… I…will…give you…this thing…I made…by myself… . ”

Lana’s offering was a flower wreath that looked like a necklace and made of wild flowers . As a matter of fact, based on price, her offering was the cheapest among all .

/p>

However, Kang Chul-In’s choice was correct and wise .

“Why…is he choose that?”

“A wreath made of wildflowers… I offer this to you, lord!”

“A little lady and her flower wreath! It seems you will only take the pure heart only!”

As Kang Chul-In has chosen to take only the wreath of the little lady, he rejected the talk that he will ignore all of the sincerity, and dealt with the problem about women . The past Kang Chul-In would not have taken such a sophisticated political stance .

“I’d rather be in a battlefield a hundred times . ”

While thinking about that, Kang Chul-In get down the horse and headed towards Lana .

But…

Plop .

Lana has collapsed .

“……”

Just by thinking of standing close to the Sovereign, would surely make somebody faint .

“…Lucia . ”

“Yes, lord . ”

“Take that child to her parents and hang the wreath on the horse saddle . ”

Kang Chul-In found a suitable compromise because he could not hang the wreath on his neck .

“Let’s go . ”

Leaving behind the minor incident behind, Kang Chul-In climbed on his white horse with the wreath and headed towards the inside of the land .

#

Even after he arrived at the Sovereign’s hall, Kang Chul-In did not rest .

First, he ordered Timothy to give the Slayers the land’s first-cla.s.s pa.s.s and paid for the accommodations and food

/p>

After that, he personally met the bereaved families of those lost in the Peac.o.c.k Dragon’s hunting, he came with informality, comforted them and paid the compensation .

He also met Commander James .

He received some awards because he was able to protect the land safely while Kang Chul-In was away .

The awards for Lucia, Podorski, and 10 elite soldiers were postponed . They had to received the bigger award, to take a break now is the first award .

“Be generous with alcohol and food . Let’s not be hungry for today . ”

Lastly, Kang Chul-In ordered the festival to commemorate the Peac.o.c.k Dragon subjugation . It was the one thing he can do to lift the mourning and sorrows of the people and to raise the happiness to the highest level .

“Huu . . ”

Kang Chul-In, who had done all of this work, was finally able to sit down on the throne and take a deep breathe while looked like perfectly ripe green onion kimchi . The sound of singing praising the glory of Sovereign came loosely as if the festival had begun outside .

“Let’s check this one last thing and rest . ”

Lastly, open [My Information] items .

―――――――――――――――――

I have grown quite a lot .

Start from the level, it was from level 25, then hunting male Peac.o.c.k Dragon +2,

While clearing the Secret Quest +1,

Ingested the Dragon Heart +2,

Then by killing the female Peac.o.c.k Dragon +1 level, total it raised 6 levels, so it reached level 31 .

As the effect of Dragon Heart the total amount of mana has also increased to 800 .

In addition to this, if he eats Dragon Heart of the female Peac.o.c.k Dragon, he can gain up to 1 . 5 level of the experience and mana .

Moreover, since he obtained 70P of Sovereign Points in this hunting, it would be more advantageous for him in the ranking compet.i.tion of Grand Sovereign .

“Great . Now, if I can resolve the financial situation of the land, I can do conquest immediately . ”

Everything was fine except the lack of gold coins being the only obstacle . He was planning on getting the whole eastern plains of Dongjun right after finis.h.i.+ng in the finances .

It was that time .

Urgh!

The pain began to spread out when the st.i.tching on his side burst again .

“Now… I really need to get rest . ”

In a three-week hunt, he battled with the Peac.o.c.k Dragon, he has done a variety of work with the serious injury on his body . If it happened to the others, they would have collapsed ten times at least .

“Your Majesty!”

It was when Kang Chul-In was trying to take the lid off the potion held to his mouth .

“Mr . . Mr . Dorian!”

Lucia ran in a hurry and told him the bad news . It was a news that similar to a Death Sentence to Kang Chul-In, who was trying to be able to breathe .

It was very interesting!

Author’s words

* Last time, there were 70P of the Sovereign Points missing . While hunting the male Peac.o.c.k Dragon the Sovereign Points were increased by 70P and now Kang Chul-In’s points are 140 points . You do not have to look back at the previous chapters .

/p>

*The stats window will not appear frequently . I will use it only in the necessary part as an indicator to show how much Kang Chul-In has grown . Because I want to tell you more of the story than the amount of points he get by the stats window… . (sorry)

*Ah, Dorian is remained .
