Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 698

Chapter 698

Leon was getting married.

After Sui Xiong returned to his God’s Kingdom, he announced this news immediately.

There was great joy in the God’s Kingdom. Everyone was jubilated.

Naturally, Sui Xiong’s followers knew who Leon was. All these years, under the leadership of this archbishop, the Church of the Void Mask had been flourishing and developing. From a subpar grass-root unit put together at random, the church had progressed to one with tens of thousands of clergymen. Its power had spread to various big cities on the Main Plane, and it had even extended its tentacles to reach out to large organizations between towns and villages in the countryside.

Not only that, but Leon was also a world-renowned peerless master who was known as “King of the Seaside” and “Blade Master.” He was practically the most powerful “human” in the world today. If it were not for his one-man show in wielding his sword to subdue the Orc Army, the battle of “Sun’s Death Day” would never have ended with an outcome of both sides being defeated and wounded. It would be a crushing defeat for the humans and an utter destruction of Eagle Kingdom.

And Leon was a well-known mentor. Over the years, the number of warriors who had achieved breakthroughs to enter the Legendary Realm under his tutelage was as many as ten.

He was also a renowned sage. He had led a group of refugees who were almost homeless in re-building Garth City, which was in ruins after being implicated in a war of the gods. Garth City was re-established into the most prosperous commercial city along the eastern coast of the Main Plane. It had even joined hands with many neighboring cities to be and seemed to have gained momentum in prevailing over the Kingdom of the Blue Moon.

Such a figure like him would naturally earn the people’s respect and love. Even though these followers in the God’s Kingdom had all undergone a round of death, upon learning that Leon was getting married, everyone still danced in joy. There were many who expressed their wish to hold a celebration.

“Of course, we must celebrate!” said Sui Xiong with a huge smile. “Not only must we celebrate, but we must also make it a very grand and extraordinary celebration, it must be earth-shattering! A celebration that will draw the attention of the world! A celebration that will go down in history!”

So the followers cheered with joy again. For a moment, there was an uproar in the God’s Kingdom, as though the atmosphere was heated up to the boiling point. The sounds of cheering could even snuff out the sounds of artillery fire at drilling districts.

“What’s going on over there?” asked Lion, who was leading a group of destroying Oracles on an attack job. He stopped in his tracks. Out of puzzlement, he turned over to look, but he could not see anything.

After a while, the Oracles who were originally fighting forcefully had completely ceased fire. The mass-produced Oracles rested, while the elite Oracles were gathered and mobilized to come and find out what was going on. Even a random Oracle who liked to hide in her room to read was dragged all the way here against her wishes by her unscrupulous sister.

“I’m not the least bit interested in what the excitement is about!”

“No! If you coop yourself at home all day long, you’ll start to grow mushrooms!”

“I just got off the battlefield!”

“Then all the more you should move about. You should strike a proper balance between work and leisure.”

“Let me rest!”

“It’s not too late to rest after watching the excitement!”

So noisily, a big group of Oracles came to the residential district of the followers and saw several people beating the drums merrily. Next to them, there were people hitting and sounding the gong. There were even people who took their copper basins from home and hit these basins with rolling pins acting as their drumsticks. Loud bangs were produced.

Along with these banging sounds, there were people who were singing and dancing. Those who were singing were out of pitch and out of tune, while those who were dancing seemed to be a group of demons dancing in riotous revelry. The young ladies were struck dumb by what they saw, wondering if they had walked to the wrong place.

Influenced by Sui Xiong, his followers were also a little laid-back. Especially those who had died once, all the more they were like those “break free of all restrictions” monsters found in Japanese anime. They were completely unrestrained, laughing when they wanted to or creating trouble when they felt like doing so. They had never forced themselves to put up with anything.

Anyway, the God’s Kingdom was rich in resources. Foods, drinks and necessities were never lacking. Just squandering a little of it, why not?

So…

The Archbishop was getting married? Oh yeah! Bravo!

Celebrate! Celebrate! They had to celebrate this well!

As to why the means of celebration was through hitting gongs, beating drums, singing and dancing…? The people were happy that day!

Amidst the noise and commotion, the leader of the team of elite Oracles, Le, found an old man. He seemed to be of a gentler disposition and was just sitting on a stool with a wine glass in his hands. He was laughing and drinking his wine as he watched the excitement. Le went up to the old man to ask about the exact situation.

“Ah, the young lady Oracles. You all have come to join in the celebration? Oh, are you asking why we are celebrating? Because our archbishop is getting married.”

The Oracles naturally knew who the archbishop was, but they did not feel that there was anything worth celebrating about the archbishop’s wedding.

From their perspective, the archbishop was no longer young. Setting up a family was a matter of course. On the contrary, they were a little surprised about the length of time that the wedding had been put off up till now.

“That archbishop is quite handsome. He’s also rich, fights well and very talented. Why wait till now to get a wife?”

“Could it be he set his expectations too high?”

“Possible… but no matter how demanding he is, it shouldn’t drag on till now.”

“Does it make any sense for you all to be guessing away like this? You just need to find out who that lady is.”

So Le went over to the old man again. But this time, that old man could not answer her.

The truth was, the followers were clueless about who Leon was going to marry. Because Sui Xiong had forgotten to tell them.

He had only spoken half a sentence when the crowd began to rejoice and celebrate. So he joined in the celebration and forgot all about the second half of the sentence.

The Oracles approached as many as a hundred followers but were unable to find out who Leon was going to marry. Then Lion struck upon a bright idea and went to ask Crick. Finally, she got the name, “Kalisa Riley.”

“Kalisa Riley, who’s that?”

“I don’t know.”

“Madam, I have no idea too.”

“Those who don’t know anything, just shut up! Those who know something, speak up!”

Complete silence.

“Hello! Could it be that no one here knows anything?”

After a while, the pink-haired Oracle, who had been dragged into joining this group activity, said, “I know. She’s the city lord of Garth City, the heir to the Riley family who was the original founder of the city. She is also said to be the most beautiful woman on the East Coast. At the beginning, she was known as the ‘Flower of the East Sea,’ then later, she was called the ‘Vase’ for a while. Later on, because she never seemed to age, she was given the name of the ‘Everlasting Flower.’”

“Wow! You actually knew all these details?! Where did you get all this from?”

“Reading books.”

“What book would mention this!”

“Mr. Schwarier von Stolovsky Franz’s Heroes mentioned it. She is Leon Igor’s lover, and it was because of her that Leon would go to the harbor alone to stop the invasion of the sea people. And later on, she was also the reason why Leon would stay in Garth City to help with the city construction…”

“This girl is so lucky!”

“Maybe she’s really beautiful?”

“I’m sure she’s not as pretty as you, my sister!”

Amidst all the messy conversations, Lion sighed deeply, then asked, “Since you already knew, why didn’t you say so earlier?”

“Too tired.”

Lion hung her head low and listlessly walked over to Le.

“Let me ask you a question.”

“Go ahead.”

“How did you use to lead the team? I feel that these team members are simply too unreliable!”

“Just get used to it.”

In the face of this fantasy-type Oracle, who had almost been appointed to take over her position as the front-line commander, the original Oracle smiled and said, “When you can get used to laughing and playing around with them, then in times where you’re unable to rely on one another, you won’t have any problems.”

“That’s the biggest problem of all!”

Cthulhu Gonfalon is a story about a man who woke up in another world. After a drink over his loss in a game, Sui Xiong ended up in the middle of the sea. Surprisingly, he now found out he no longer existed in a human shape but in a spirit state without any flesh. In order to survive and find a way to return to Earth, he then searched for a body to accommodate his spirit. After several confrontations with some creatures under the sea, he decided to settle for a jellyfish flesh. This Jellyfish was extraordinarily huge. With its tentacles, it caught others’ spirits to nurture its own power. In this world, Sui Xiong wasn’t only matchlessly powerful but he also had an ability to cast magic. With this gifted ability and combined with his knowledge from the civilized world on Earth, he could help a deceased person resurrect, change a person’s look, and do tons of other crazy things that he didn’t know. As his journey to discover this world went on, he encountered many bizarre and mystic creatures along the way, who were Gods, Humans, Devil Beasts, Giant Dragons and lots of other undetermined organisms. Some of them might insanely worship him, while others hated him. Some might become his enemies. Some might end up becoming his teammates in the end. From a gamer on Earth to here, he became a God (even he himself could not verify this yet), had his own religion and even a church with a Holy Land to fight for justice. What kind of world is this? What kind of existences might live in this world? What kind of secret this world owns? Can Sui Xiong return to Earth? Keep on following the story to find out the answers for those questions. Little explanation about Cthulhu: Cthulhu has been described in appearance as resembling an octopus, a dragon and a human caricature, hundreds of meters tall, with webbed human-looking arms and legs and a pair of rudimentary wings on its back. Cthulhu’s head is depicted as similar to the entirety of a gigantic octopus, with an unknown number of tentacles surrounding its supposed mouth.
