I Will Be The Crowned King - Vol 5 Chapter 1
“On August 22nd, 94th year of the saint’s calendar, with the help of dear Professor Mace Hornard and the permission of the college, I left the campus temporarily and took the evening steam train back to my hometown.”
“Besides, there is my degree certificate from St. Isaac’s College, the admission certificate from the Royal Military Academy, plus a small ‘surprise’.”
“To be honest, from leaving school to getting on the train, I was full of pictures of my family when they knew about this ‘surprise’, excited, shocked, puzzled… All kinds of pictures are in my mind I have rehearsed it over and over again in my head, but I still get nervous when I fantasize—of course, the kind of nervousness I don’t know how to hide my smugness.”
“Don’t even talk about going home, even on the train, I’m imagining that if a passenger next to me discovers my status as a gifted person, what should I do to stay calm and calm, so that it will not affect the gifted person? The image of the crowd, or being mistaken for a superficial person who just happened to have such extraordinary powers.”
“Fortunately or unfortunately, no one inadvertently discovered that in this ordinary second-class carriage crowded with a hundred passengers, there was a genuine talent… The Ring of Order is blessed.”
“August 30th, maybe it’s because I’ve lived in Clovis for so long that when I get off the train and embark on the last short journey home, I feel a little at a loss.”
“I wanted to come to a densely populated place like the platform, but I didn’t wait for a carriage for a full two hours, and then I suddenly remembered that there doesn’t seem to be a coachman here, so I finally persuaded a wine transporter. Our caravan companions finally got to the car seat.”
“The ring of order is on, this is almost the worst riding experience I have had in the past few years; I never imagined that the carriage could be so bumpy that I worried more than once that I would vomit directly in the car; Staying overnight in the suburbs made me miss the dormitories, canteens, and cold drink stands everywhere on Frederick Street.”
“The last tenth of the trip brought me almost ten times as much fatigue and confusion as before, and then the time spent was almost twice as long… When I finally got home, not only did my relatives and family members not give me a warm welcome, but instead Blame me for not writing a letter in advance and not bringing them the specialties of the capital.”
“Ring of Order, it would be nice if I could bring myself back, and a specialty?!”
“Although I have gone through countless hardships and all kinds of bad troubles, being able to be reunited with my family is always the happiest thing; especially after four years, there are really too many things to want. Confess – no matter how good Clovis City is, it is still inferior to home.”
“The only thing that puzzles me is that after I announced that I had awakened the power of blood, my brother did not show any joy, but became much heavier; I also shared some with my former friends. An anecdote about the royal capital, and I learned from them the changes in their hometown in recent years.”
“I could feel from their expressions that the anecdotes I shared were probably similar to the mythical stories in the Ring of Order tome; and the changes they were talking about… I didn’t even feel the changes, a Second-rate circuses perform in villages and towns a few times every six months, is it such a big news?”
“It wasn’t until the next night, when my brother took me to the family cemetery to pay homage to my deceased parents, I finally understood why his face was so heavy – he thought I was here to **** the family inheritance from him!”
“Sword Comes”
“Of course, it’s not accurate to describe it as ‘grab’, because I have indeed awakened the power of blood. According to the family’s inheritance tradition, I am indeed qualified to directly take the title and family property from my brother and become the new Master Bach.”
“But I didn’t do that in the end… It’s not just that I don’t want to see my brother who has been the head of the house for many years because of something that should make everyone happy; it’s also because once I become ‘Master Bach’, I You have to stay in your hometown and watch over an industry that has been passed down for generations.”
“I don’t want to live like that… In four years, in just four years, I found myself completely out of touch with the life in my hometown, and I could feel the incompatibility with each other everywhere; I couldn’t stand the slow carriage, three The market once every four months, the circus performance once every six months… let alone a lifetime, I can’t last a day!”
“The ring of order is on, maybe I’m really crazy? But in my eyes, Clovis City, which has only lived for less than four years, looks far more beautiful than the hometown where I grew up. Be kind; I miss the crowded and bustling streets, the newspapers filled with all kinds of boring news and newspapers, and the clean and bright dormitories… I-I must be crazy!”
“Not only I feel this way, but even my brother feels the same way; but he has been comforting me that if I want, I can form a new ‘Bach’ family in Clovis City; this has no precedent in the family history, But it didn’t say no.”
“I think he’s just looking for a good step for both parties, so that the atmosphere is not too embarrassing.”
“On September 10th, I finally got on a train back to Clovis City, and my whole family and even all my relatives came to see me off; I was very happy that day, and they were also very happy, but I think maybe in their hearts There is also a tacit understanding like mine…”
“That is Anson Bach, and I will never go back; this time to take me to the car is my eternal farewell to the entire Bach family, and also a farewell to my hometown of ease, leisure and nothing to do.”
“Until the end, I didn’t show them the admission notice of the Royal Military Academy; perhaps I have realized in my heart that my family-related career has come to an end when I was sixteen years old, and my life after that will be completely complete. It belongs to Ansen Bach, and there is no other reliance.”
“Maybe it’s some kind of fate, or it’s just my own delusion, but when the steam train started to speed up and gradually left the farewell crowd behind, I didn’t feel like continuing my studies, but started a new period of time. journey.”
“The prosperous world that I have been familiar with has become unfamiliar again, novel, full of unknown and infinite possibilities, and is constantly waving to me…”
“Cloway City, I… Anson Bach… here!”
Gently closing the diary in his hand, Anson Bach, who was pale, struggled to get up from the bed, and looked weakly at the boundless sea; the cold wind slammed open the open window, letting the turbid air a little. With so much freshness.
Although he has successfully broken through the shackles of the mortal body and has become an extraordinary existence such as the Blasphemy Mage, the “seasickness” problem still seems to accompany him: from the moment he stepped on the deck, the whole person seemed to suffer It was like a curse that he couldn’t control it at all. First, the sky was spinning, then he vomited violently, and finally fainted.
After this state lasted for nearly two weeks, there was a little bit of improvement, and then it returned to its original state again, and even if he opened up the “field”, it would not help – because the state only acts on the body, and if you want to get rid of seasickness, you must let the ship The ship was suspended on the sea level.
After a brief desperate struggle, he could only accept the result with peace of mind, and left all the follow-up work of the legion to Fabian, Carl and the little secretary, etc.; the officers had no meaning to this, after all, their The commander-in-chief is usually very good at throwing the pot, and he has long been accustomed to it.
If there is any dissatisfaction, it is that everyone must take turns taking care of the daily life of the commander-in-chief. Although this job has been completely taken over by Miss Lisa in name, what will happen if the food she cooks is eaten? Say you understand.
In order to prevent the commander-in-chief from saying goodbye forever to everyone because of the aggrieved reason of food poisoning, the officers had to work together to ensure the health of Anson Bach, and to make Lisa mistakenly think that these were the results of her caring care— After all, the fate of being targeted by the eldest lady is really miserable.
With the efforts of the officers, An Sen, who was in a coma day and night, finally lived through the most difficult first month, and Beigang was already at hand.
“Dong Dongdong.”
There was a crisp knock on the door, and William Cecil, the commander of the Royal Fleet, who was holding the handle, came into Anson’s eyes; he looked around nervously, and only after confirming that there was no girl was there. Reassured and boldly walked in.
“Also please forgive the uninvited coming, mainly because your subordinates told me that they would buy me ten minutes at most – the ‘sick porridge’ prepared by Miss Lisa for you to be dumped secretly, seems to have been emptied by them. Found it.” William Cecil wiped the cold sweat from his temples:
“Although it’s just a trivial matter, and maybe you already know it, but this is my responsibility, and I have to make sure that there are no accidents, so please forgive me.”
“No problem, it’s completely understandable.” The pale-faced Anson nodded slightly: “It’s the placement of the Storm Legion and the Free Confederation mission after the fleet arrived at the North Harbor, right?”
“As expected of the commander-in-chief of the Storm Legion, who created a new country with his own hands.”
William Cecil’s eyes were full of admiration and admiration: “The situation is like this, because Clovis has not made formal preparations for establishing diplomatic relations with the Free Confederation, and the holy war has just ended, there are a lot of follow-up matters to be dealt with , there is definitely not enough time and energy in a short period of time.”
“Some of them you must already know, such as the armistice agreement between Clovis and the Empire has expired, the army of the Nakhir Kingdom has been invading the other two of the three North Sea Kingdoms, and the Yinsel Elf Kingdom is said to have another ten The remnants of the three councils…”
“…All in all, before Clovis City sends messengers to convey His Majesty’s will, the Storm Legion and the Free Confederation mission must temporarily stay in the North Harbor and be under the full control of the Royal Fleet.”
After coughing twice, William Cecil’s expression was somewhat embarrassed: “Of course! We will try our best to guarantee the treatment, and we will never let the legion and the envoys of the Free Confederation suffer. A little bit of grievance.”
“I absolutely believe this.” An Sen nodded slightly: “But I have a small request. I also hope that the Cecil family… ah, I mean that the Royal Fleet and the city council of Beigang can be accommodated.”
“Oh, please say it.”
“Of course we will not leave Beigang, but if we or the members of the diplomatic mission go out and do business normally in Beigang City, we hope that we will not be hindered in any way – of course, it is based on the premise that it is absolutely not illegal.”
“This…” William Cecil hesitated for a moment, then nodded without thinking:
“no problem.”
Anyway, Ludwig’s request to himself is to not let the Storm Legion leave Beigang for the time being, and give him and the Franz family time to negotiate with the royal family and the upper-class giants; then as long as these people do not leave Beigang, his mission is completed. .
As for what they did in Beigang, it had nothing to do with themselves and the Cecil family; even if it was just in the face of the New World Company behind Ansen, the Cecil family had no reason to offend the other party easily, after all, they were also very envious. The raw material business in the hands of the other party.
“However, I still want to remind you that due to the independence of the Ice Dragon Fjord caused by the Free Confederation and the subsequent holy war, the attitude of the entire North Harbor towards the Storm Legion is not very good, let alone the messenger of the Free Confederation.” Thinking of something, William Cecil quickly reminded:
“You should also be aware that there are too many merchants doing raw material trade in Beigang, and the independence of the Free Confederation is tantamount to directly taking away a large piece of their cake, and there is no chance to trade at a very low price like in the past. Prices, and even the purchase of New World ore and lumber with commodity collateral, it is impossible to say that there is no complaint.”
“I have already prepared for this.” An Sen nodded calmly, with an expression in his grasp: “Please rest assured of the Cecil family, I will try my best to communicate between the Free Confederation mission and the various chambers of commerce in Beigang. , to ensure that everyone’s interests will not be too seriously damaged, at least it will not make it difficult for the Cecil family.”
William, with a dignified expression, pursed the corners of his mouth tightly. How to balance between himself and Anson Bach, an important collaborator, was also the most troublesome part of the family.
The two of them looked at each other, and they both saw a bit of anxiety in the other’s expressions.
Six hours later, the fleet arrived at Beigang successfully in the nearly evening sky; I saw a large and extremely eye-catching banner hanging on the densely populated and lively pier:
“Warmly welcome Brigadier General Anson Bach, my honorary citizen, to visit Beigang in person!”
