GodKing Of Life - Chapter 36

In the sky, Shin flapped his wings with power to increase his speed.

The kingdom of Alderia was quite far from Dragnof, several days walk and one day of flight for normal dragons.​​

Except that Shin was much stronger physically than normal dragons so the journey would be shortened.

And moreover, he breathed magic into his wings to strengthen them and increase his speed allowing him to reach the kingdom of Alderia in only a few hours.

During his flight, he felt two completely contradictory feelings.

On the one hand, he felt joy at the announcement of his marriage with Irene and on the other hand, he felt anger for the kingdom of Alderia.

In view of what he had observed in the anime, he doubted that the kingdom’s intentions were very kind.

Knowing that the kingdom of Dragnof had great power compared to other kingdoms because of the dragons, and that Rung betrayed Irene after seeing her transformation.

A husband should never have acted this way towards his wife but rather support her, unless he did not love her and was not only there for profit then it is understandable.

Just thinking back to all that Rung had done to Irene in the anime was enough to make Shin’s anger even greater.

—–

After a few hours of traveling, Shin finally arrived at his destination.

He was above a kingdom the size of Dragnof or even bigger.

The kingdom was on the seaside, giving a magnificent view and access to the sea.

This allowed the kingdom to fish and sell seafood, the greatest ȧsset of the kingdom of Alderia.

The palace was located in the middle of the kingdom, but compared to Dragnof’s palace which looked more like a bunker from the outside, the Alderia palace looked more like Shin’s image of a palace.

With large towers, glass walls and a more neat, built and detailed architecture.

He observed all this from the sky at a height of hundreds of meters so that we could not see him.

After observing the kingdom of Alderia from the sky, he bowed to the ground and went down to land in a place far enough away not to be seen.

Approaching the ground, his Phoenix body gave way to a human body and flames formed his clothing, landing on the ground on tiptoe.

Then coming out of his corner, he moved toward the entrance to the kingdom.

It seemed to him like a scene from déjà vu.

Arriving at the entrance, he was of course stopped by guards who looked at him with jealous and suspicious eyes.

“Who are you and what have you come here to do?” asked a guard in a deep voice.

With Shin’s appearance, obviously he had attracted the attention of the guards as well as civilians in the surrounding area.

Shin looked the guards straight in the eyes, giving them chills, then smiled.

“I am Shin, I come from the kingdom of Dragnof and I have come to talk to the king,” Shin said gently and calmly.

He had decided to be honest and clear, he saw no point in lying since they were not a threat to him.

The guards were surprised by Shin’s response but believed him when they saw his appearance and his attire.

It was clearly not an outfit a citizen could afford.

The guards looked each other in the eyes and then nodded to confirm their thoughts.

“We will take you to the palace, follow us,” said one guard in a respectful but still somewhat authoritative tone.

He must have thought he was untouchable being in his kingdom.

“It’s okay, I’ll go alone, I’d like to visit the city a little,” Shin replied immediately afterwards, not giving the guards time to turn around and go into the city.

Hearing an answer he didn’t expect, a guard clenched his teeth and hands and raised his voice.

“Sir, I told you to-” But as he turned to look at Shin, he could see him looking at him with a smile and calm eyes.

But behind that gentle smile and his soft eyes, the two guards could feel a terrifying pressure that froze them to the ground, paralyzing them completely.

Cold sweats poured down their foreheads and backs, it was as if a higher existence was watching them.

“Sorry and thank you”

Shin did not take more time to take care of them and passed in front of them to return to the kingdom of Alderia.

The guards did nothing and only let him pass, still tetanized and paralyzed.

——-

Now in the kingdom, Shin has returned to the streets.

And as in Dragnof, the entrance gave directly on the commercial street given all the stands, stores that were present.

The architectural style was generally the same as Dragnof but this time the dominant smell in the air was different.

It was fresh, refreshing, salty, maritime and the smell of fish was dominant.

The smell was very pleasant and really reflected the image of the sea, vacations and summer.

Even the style of clothing was different and corresponded more to the summer season.

During his walk, he had of course stopped at several food stalls to try seafood.

He was able to try some kinds of shrimps, scallops, mussels and many others.

Tasting fresh seafood was really refreshing and the taste was new to him.

Neither at Dragnof nor on Earth he had tasted these dishes.

Shin continued to make his tourist while drawing attention to himself, usual looks for him now.

Then after his sightseeing, he arrived in front of the palace.

The entrance was as usual and without much surprise guarded by a guard group.

He approached the entrance without much suspicion and was later stopped by the guards.

“Halt, you may not approach the palace,” said the guard without wavering like the other guards at the entrance to the kingdom because of Shin’s appearance.

“Aah” Shin sighed. He, who had returned to a more or less stable mood, had returned to his former mood.

“Listen, I’ve come from the Dragnof Kingdom to discuss a very important matter with the king,” Shin said with great seriousness.

“We were not informed of your visit, so I repeat, stay away,” replied the soldier more persistently, leading the other soldiers to approach in case something goes wrong.

His answer raised Shin’s eyebrows and he decided to pass by in a strong manner.

“Listen, I’m in a hurry and my mood is not very good and I don’t want to kill you, so either you let me pass or you die,” Shin said with a serious face and stern eyes.

Following his sentence, Shin unleashed his magical power to emit a magical power that shook the whole kingdom.

The citizens panicked from this sudden pressure and the earthquakes appeared out of nowhere.

The soldiers in front of him could only kneel before the pressure and some were even crushed against the ground unlike the citizens who had not been targeted.

But they still felt oppressed and suffocated.

After a few seconds that lasted for hours for the soldiers, Shin stopped.

Then after a few minutes of waiting, a man could be seen running out of the palace in the direction of Shin.

He arrived in front of Shin exhausted and then spoke in an exhausted and terrified voice.

“Sir, the king will welcome you to the throne room, please follow me,” the man stammered.

Shin followed the man as he passed by the soldiers still kneeling incredulous and speechless.

He followed the man into the very luxurious palace and arrived after a few minutes of walking in front of a very large door.

The door opened and made way for the throne room.

The hall was very large as one would expect of a throne room, a large red carpet running toward the throne, many pillars on the sides, and a large chandelier illuminating the entire room from the ceiling.

Shin continued to walk forward until he was just in front of the throne when the man who had come for him had already left.

Turning his gaze to the throne, a man in his fifties could be seen.

He was rather thin, with tousled and tousled brown hair, a brown beard, and dressed in a large robe that could clearly tell that he was of royal blood.

A smile adorned his face making him seem like a nice person.

But Shin could sense people’s intentions and feelings, and clearly the king did not give good ones.

“Hello, King of Alderia”

Out of respect, Shin bowed to the king and then returned to his standing position.

This movement caused visible discontent among those present who appeared to be soldiers and nobles, even the king showed a slight irritation.

But Shin still had a modicum of pride, he could not bow to people like them, especially since he represented the kingdom of Dragnof.

“I welcome you to my kingdom, representative of Dragnof,” replied the king with authority and poise.

“May I ask you the reason for your visit,” the king asked.

“Of course. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Shin”

The king nodded his head in approval at Shin’s presentation.

One could see that the king was irritated by Shin’s presence and by looking at the king’s eyes, one could see jealousy as he looked at Shin.

He was jealous of Shin’s beauty and youth. He dėsɨrėd the same.

“I am here to announce that the Queen, Irene Belserion, wishes to cancel the engagement with General Rung.”

Everyone was shocked by his announcement, including the king.

The alliance between the two kingdoms was important for the kingdom of Alderia.

It would give them even greater power and with their plan, a new territory to expand theirs.

General Rung, who was also present, was just as surprised but was not really angry.

He didn’t really care, all he was doing was carrying out the king’s orders. He was just a puppet of the king.

Veins appeared on the king’s forehead and he pressed his hands tightly against the armrest of his throne.

The anger he felt was bubbling inside him in the face of Shin’s carelessness, and it was in danger of being unleashed.

But the king could bȧrėly control himself and looked at Shin with a smile trembling with anger.

“Could you tell me why the Queen wishes this?”

“Because she’s found someone she loves,” Shin always answered seriously.

The more Shin spoke, the more the king’s anger wanted to be unleashed.

“And can we know who the chosen one is?” questioned the king to find out the identity of the one he was going to have to kill.

“It’s me,” Shin said curtly.

Shin’s answer acted as a thunderbolt on the king and the nobles.

They expected anything but that.

To think that the man who would become the future king of Dragnof had come in person and alone.

“And we plan to marry soon”

Shin dropped the last bomb as calm and relaxed as ever.

Even though inside him, the anger was still present and boiling but well hidden and controlled.

And this last sentence was one too many for the king.

“Go ahead,” said the king as suddenly people came out from behind the pillars.

They were dressed as magi or sorcerers and carried magic wands.

Really clichés.

They pointed their magic wand at Shin and recited an incantation.

Shin did not move and the magi had finished their incantation.

A magic circle appeared under Shin’s feet and a spherical barrier was formed to enclose him.

“Ah AH AH AH AH AH AH” The king’s loud and crazy laughter could be heard throughout the room and a smile could be seen on the faces of all the nobles.

The anger that the king had held back had finally burst out and was accompanied by joy.

“Who do you think you are to look down on us?!” shouted the king frantically.

Madness, insanity, rage, fury, all these negative emotions were expressed and released by the king.

“You think you’re all-powerful because you have these dragon slayers?!”

“You think you’re invulnerable because you’re the Celestial Phoenix?!” the king added.

He had understood Shin’s identity by knowing that he came from Dragnof and from the pressure exerted against the guards.

But he was not afraid, thinking that his barrier would lock him up and he would be safe.

“Who do you think you are?! God?!”

“You’re nothing but worms before my greatness!! I’ll make the bitchy queen regret her decision!! I’ll beat and torture her to death and make it look like an accident!!” cried the mad king with his eyes turning red with madness.

*Trembling*

*BAM* *BAM*

Suddenly, powerful tremors were felt, the palace shook and began to destroy itself as pieces of the broken palace fell to the ground.

The hysterical king and the nobles stopped laughing as cold sweats ran down their spines.

A face of terror appeared on their faces as they looked in the direction of Shin.

The barrier that held Shin had been instantly destroyed under the pressure and power of his magical power and the magi who held it down were propelled violently against the walls.

Shin’s face was dark and covered with wicks but his eyes were very cold, murderous and angry.

“You dare to threaten my wife?!” Shin said in a voice that was neither too loud nor too weak but very cold and authoritative.

His wings spread out, making his silhouette even more terrifying for the king and the nobles.

He looked like an angry God of Death who had come to harvest their souls.

Shin’s body was wrapped in a bluish starry aura that resembled space and closed his eyes.

Then after a few seconds the bluish starry aura disappeared and he opened his eyes again.

His eyes glowed and pulsed with enormous power as Shin released all his magical power.

“Celestial Phoenix Moves”

Shin lifted his foot on which his pure magic was concentrated.

“Celestial Phoenix Shake The Earth”

Shin struck his foot with a little force to break the ground under him.

At the moment of contact between his foot and the ground, a shimmering, bright green light appeared.

*CRACK* *CRACK*

*BAM* *BAM*

Then Phoenixes similar to Shin came out of the ground and destroyed the palace.

Then having destroyed the palace, the Phoenixes came out of the palace and rushed towards an empty kingdom and destroyed it.

The kingdom was bathed in a bright, shimmering green light.

*BOOM*
