Chapter 1120: Is He Still the Smiling Young Man? (Part Two)
However, Fei’s appearance made the Northern Region of Azeroth peaceful again on the surface. All the empires seemed to be united, making this ancient land avoid being scorched by flames of wars again. Therefore, all ordinary humans in the Northern Region quickly accepted the Human Emperor of the North who brought them peace, and they cheered and praised the birth of the new Zenitian emperor.
Of course, as to those emperors and nobles who got their status and military control reduced, it was hard to tell if they were truly happy or not.
…
“Hahaha! King Buckingham! What a man! Your best gifts to me are Emperor Juninho’s declaration and Constantine!”
In the Royal Palace of Zenit, Fei thanked Buckingham from the bottom of his heart.
In the Battle at the Bay of Byzantine, the Byzantinian troops were all crushed, and King Constantine of Byzantine was also captured. Only Queen Izabella of Byzantine and some Byzantinians were able to get away and got to Chambord after traveling tens of thousands of kilometers under the Chambordian troops’ protection.
However, since that day, King Constantine of Byzantine, a friend of Fei, hadn’t been heard of.
Some rumors stated that King Constantine of Byzantine had already been killed by the Barcelonans.
Other rumors said that King Constantine of Byzantine was captured and delivered back to the Western Region.
All kinds of rumors circulated in public.
After Fei returned from the [Banished Land], he ordered the [Letter Office] to use its full strength to search for the whereabouts of Constantine, but nothing came of it.
Queen Izabella of Byzantine who was pregnant showed everyone her tough side, and she never asked for anything from Fei. However, the more Queen Izabella of Byzantine endured, the more guilty Fei felt. Therefore, he never gave up on finding Constantine.
Until a few days ago, King Buckingham came to St. Petersburg to represent the Leon Empire and congratulate Fei on the official crowning ceremony. On the way to Zenit, King Buckingham and his team defeated a Barcelonan battleship that tried to act as a pirate ship and get away. On the ship was a captive who had broken legs and broken arms, and these Leonians asked several questions and figured out that this man was the missing King Constantine of Byzantine.
The long period of inhumane treatment and torture made Constantine extremely weak, and he looked like a skeleton.
As soon as this envoy group came to St. Petersburg, Fei quickly appeared and healed Constantine. Then, the King of Byzantine recovered a portion of his aura, and arms and legs regrew on his body.
When the husband and wife finally united again after such a long time, Queen Izabella of Byzantine who had been acting tough lost her composure and cried loudly. That touching scene still made people cry when they recalled the situation.
“Your Majesty, if you really want to thank me, can you go a bit more lenient on the requirements for the Leon Empire?” King Buckingham had a bitter smile on his face.
Due to their unique experience in risking their lives and fighting Evil Sea God Kluivert, King Buckingham and Fei appreciated each other, and they had a good relationship.
But now, Zenit was on the rise and was planning to unite the Northern Region of Azeroth with an iron grip.
Buckingham was here to negotiate with Zenit on behalf of Leon. However, Zenitian officials had been tough to deal with and made no compromises. If Leon had to follow everything on the agreement so far, the empire that had a history of more than several hundred years was going to become Zenit’s affiliated nation.
With such a result, Buckingham was going to be called the ‘traitor’ by many Leonian nobles once he returned.
Right now, this man wanted to get a bit more back for Leon from Fei. Even if it was only a small compromise, Buckingham had to fight for it.
Right now, Buckingham was only worried that Fei who now had the strength to wipe through the Northern Region of Azeroth wasn’t the smiling young man from before.
