The following day, Watson yawned as he walked out of the Sword Saint’s courtyard. He was surrounded by a group of people as soon as he stepped onto the street.
“Young Master Watson, please head to the Dragon Knight training ground to participate in the training. Many students have already arrived. The only thing left is to start the training.”
The leader was a Dragon Knight clad in heavy armor. Dragon Knights usually looked valiant, giving off an aura that made people afraid to approach them.
Watson recognized quite a few of those Dragon Knights, including Casey, Charlotte, and Lily. Christina was also with them; she smiled and said, “Watson, did you wake up late?”
A group of priests stood behind the Dragon Knights. There was even a pope and a dozen bishops—they were singing praises to Watson.
“A beautiful day begins when we meet our great and honorable master. The light of our master is more dazzling than the sun and moon in the sky. May our master grant us courage, wisdom, and health every day. Praise our master.”
Hundreds of priests exuding the light of faith prayed to Watson. They appeared very pious. The pope even came to Watson’s side and bowed respectfully. “Your Holiness, if you’re not doing anything special later, can you go to our church and bless our believers?”
“Watson has become the leader of the Dragon Knights. He was appointed by His Majesty. If you want him, wait until we finish our training! As the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s most powerful army, we shoulder the mission of protecting the kingdom. If you want to worship the gods to satisfy your inner desire, then wait a little. Nothing is more important than the kingdom’s security. ”
A few Dragon Knights mocked the pope.
“You’re a mortal. How would you understand Young Master Watson’s power? Those who don’t understand his power are not qualified to train with him!” The pope had a disdainful look on his face. Then, he opened his hands toward Watson, and a powerful aura like a tidal wave spread from his body.
That aura surpassed a diamond-tier elite, perhaps even approaching the starlight tier.
Many believers stretched their hands outward and showed their devotion to Watson by embracing the sun. The aura spread from their bodies like an ocean, connecting them. The terrifying aura caused the sky to glow with golden light. The faint singing of gods could be heard, and soft golden feathers floated from the sky.
The weakest priests were at platinum-tier—even the powerful dragons became uneasy.
“As long as you believe in Young Master Watson, you can obtain power far beyond your level, even if you don’t cultivate. That power is even stronger than the Dragon Knights! Protect the kingdom? Don’t be ridiculous. We don’t need you to protect us.” A priest mocked the Dragon Knights.
The Dragon Knights were furious.
“What did you say? No matter what power you obtained from Watson, you don’t have the right to be so proud. We are different from you. The Dragon Knights’ power is derived from our hard work in cultivation. It is not something that a low-tier clergy like you would know. We will show you our power!”
Some Dragon Knights could not take it anymore, so they released their dragon form and merged with the dragons around them. The Dragon Knights, who had transformed into Dragonmen, had an aura that made them feel like they were on fire. They did not want to give in to the members of the Holy See. They took up half of the street each.
The atmosphere was tense, and both sides were about to fight—a few conflicting voices came from the street at that moment.
“Young Master Watson, we are His Majesty’s personal guards. His Majesty has invited you to the Royal Palace to participate in the coronation ceremony of the kingdom’s heir.”
“We are from the Royal Academy. The teachers are all waiting for you, Watson. However, the principal said there would be no classes if you were not there. Everyone will have to wait.”
“Young Master Watson, the Abedor family is also extending an invitation to you. They say that the Blessings of the Gods and Demons potions are selling like hot cakes. They are about to run out. They hope that you can give them more raw materials.”
“The Ptolemy family also wants us to invite Young Master Watson…”
It was still so early, but the outside of the Sword Saint’s courtyard was livelier than the market. People from different forces came to Watson one after another, hoping that he would meet their respective lords.
The reason that happened was that Watson had led Nightingale to the Severed Fingers gang’s headquarters so that Nightingale could get to know their higher-ups. After she got to know Levin, who was in charge of intelligence, Nightingale immediately used the intelligence network to spread what Watson had done.
Among them were Queen Avril and the former Queen Isabella, who abdicated because she tried to kill Watson. Her children were made commoners while Watson inherited the throne.
From the kingdom’s strongest genius to the kingdom’s heir—that change was too fast for many of the noblemen in the capital to react. Then, they hurriedly sent people to Watson’s residence, wanting to send gifts to win over him. Many of them were initially subordinates of the first and second princes, but they had to realign themselves to survive. There was only one person they could rely on.
The noblemen were so anxious because of Antonio and Reid. After they visited the Severed Fingers Gang, Antonio and Reid had fought for the Fusion Thread of the Dual God. They also asked for new weapons.
Watson had no choice but to go to the palace to retrieve the God-king’s Throne of Commandment that he had given to King Landhar III. He could give it to Reid so that Antonio could take the Fusion Thread of the Dual God. The two masters would not throw tantrums then.
The God-king’s Throne of Commandment was a divine artifact at the peak of starlight-tier. In terms of effect, it was not weaker than the Fusion Thread of the Dual God. In fact, it was even more powerful. Watson could still think of King Landhar III’s gloomy face and murderous eyes when he was about to take the throne the previous day. It was like he could kill people with his eyes.
The people in the capital knew that Watson was their future king, an existence that required absolute respect. The people from the Holy See believed that Watson was a living god. After Avril was resurrected, they immediately went to the various churches in the royal city under Denise’s introduction and began to integrate the churches’ faith.
Initially, among the church’s people, even though many people had gained a lot of benefits because of their faith in Watson, some people still firmly believed in the seven gods and did not want to change. Those people had become Wilson’s devout believers in just one day. The power of faith in Watson’s body had increased several times, which almost made him laugh out loud in his dreams.
As the faith grew stronger, the rumor that Avril was an evil person as the Saintess of the Demoness Church was dispelled. Isabella’s testimony also helped to change the residents’ impression of Avril.
Isabella was the previous Queen. Why would someone with her status lie?
Even if they did not believe Isabella, they had to believe in Watson. Watson was the future king with a godly status. If Avril were an evil person, why would Watson let such a person help manage the church?
The residents were saying that Avril was not evil; some even began to think that Avril was an angel responsible for preaching on behalf of a god—a symbol of light.
In just one day, the royal city had undergone earth-shaking changes, and those changes were spreading to other cities around the royal city as well.
