My cousin is becoming a legend.

Chapter 75 The Subservient King



Chapter 75 The Subservient King

After the ceremony was completed.

Violet quickly got up and coaxed the half-dead Eleanor into the throne room.

Eleanor sat on the throne.

At this moment, Eleanor finally breathed a sigh of relief thanks to her height advantage.

Finally, they've regained some of the dignity of royalty.

She looked at the two people in the hall and said in a low voice:

"Lady Violet, you just said you had something important to report to me, cough cough cough... something important to report to me, cough cough... what is it?"

Eleanor coughed as she struggled to maintain her royal dignity and finish her sentence.

She was already feeling unwell.

In addition, the intense emotions I just experienced have made my body even weaker.

The housekeeper, who was standing to the side, approached with some concern.

But Eleanor raised her hand to stop her.

She took a moment to catch her breath, then pulled out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth.

"It's alright, don't worry about me."

Violet looked at the weakened Eleanor with a hint of worry in her eyes.

Eleanor was implanted with the Lord's Sword when she was twelve years old.

Six years have passed, and I still haven't adapted.

Not only is physical growth slowing down, but health is also gradually being affected.

I really don't know how much longer she can hold on.

How can a kingdom survive when the safety of its people rests on the shoulders of an innocent child?

Violet sighed inwardly.

She waited quietly.

Violet spoke only after Eleanor's breathing had calmed down:

"Your Majesty, I do have important matters to report. I request that you ask that all irrelevant personnel in the hall be removed."

Eleanor nodded and waved to the housekeeper and guards below.

"Please, my esteemed subjects, leave now."

Soon, only the three of them remained in the hall.

Eleanor was also curious about why Violet was so mysterious.

"Sister... cough, my dear minister, can you speak now?"

Violet nodded.

She hesitated before slowly asking:

"Your Majesty, before I begin, I'd like to ask you a question. If the kingdom were to face another crisis, would you stand up for it?"

Eleanor nodded, her face expressionless.

"Of course, this is my responsibility as a member of royalty, and I have always been prepared."

"Your Majesty is willing to sacrifice your life for the country; it is truly remarkable."

Violet was genuinely polite.

Eleanor blushed slightly upon hearing this.

She shifted her position on the throne, placed her hands in front of her, and gently tapped her thighs with her fingers.

She was somewhat at a loss.

What is Violet trying to say? Why is she being so mysterious...?

Just as Eleanor was looking forward to it, Violet finally spoke.

"Then allow me to ask Your Majesty one more question."

"If, and I mean if, a person with extraordinary dual talents appears in the kingdom right now, and is determined to save the country from its dire straits, would you eliminate him, or would you appoint him to an important position?"

Eleanor was taken aback by his words, her nimble fingers hovering in the air.

Double extraordinary?

A sense of panic subconsciously arose within Eleanor.

Generation after generation of royalty will tell their children the story of the villains, who are dual superhumans.

The protagonist of that story is naturally the mad king, the Sun King.

Eleanor grew up hearing these kinds of stories, so naturally she subconsciously felt a fear of dual superhumans.

Moreover, the royal family's rule has always been to kill any discovered dual-class individuals.

Although I don't know why, this is the rule of the royal family.

Perhaps dual superhumans are born villains.

Eleanor thought so.

The stereotype that dual superhumans are villains is deeply ingrained in Eleanor's mind.

But then her most trusted sister, Violet, threw another question at her.

If a dual superhuman appeared who could help you save this decaying nation, what would you choose?

Eleanor was momentarily at a loss.

Her reason and emotions are in conflict.

Violet waited quietly for Eleanor's answer.

If her answer is to kill him, then she will not reveal Lynn's identity, but will only make him a guest of her family and secretly cultivate him.

However, the effect would be much weaker.

Although their family is wealthier than the royal family, the power of the royal family should not be underestimated.

After all, royalty is royalty.

Even without money, power is something that money can never buy.

Although the royal family lacks the power to mobilize the nobles, it is more than capable of using that power to cultivate a talent.

Take Sinus National Academy for example. Given Lynn's status, there are many opportunities that he wouldn't even know about, let alone participate in.

But with the Queen's letter of recommendation, those difficulties would be nothing more than a trivial matter.

A silence fell over the room.

at last.

Eleanor made her choice.

She said softly, "According to royal protocol, I should kill that person."

Lynn was startled by what he heard.

What happened?

Why does the royal family have such rules?

He turned to look at Violet.

Violet shook her head at him, signaling him to relax.

Lynn breathed a sigh of relief.

He understood Violet's intention.

He was somewhat annoyed that Violet hadn't told him beforehand.

Lynn knew that dual superhumans were very rare.

Shea had even mocked him for it.

However, he never expected that a dual superhuman would be such a hated existence.

The royal family has actually established a rule that dual superhumans must be eliminated!

It seems I won't be able to easily use a second job anymore.

If it must be used, it must be only when there is absolute certainty that all witnesses can be killed.

Lynn thought so.

He felt a lingering fear.

Fortunately, all the enemies who knew he was a dual superhuman were already dead.

Otherwise, he'll be in big trouble later.

"So, you're choosing to kill the person who can save the country, right?"

Violet said in a deep voice.

Eleanor shook her head upon hearing this.

"That's how it is according to royal protocol, but... when it comes to matters of state, it's not like that."

Eleanor began to speak slowly.

"I am a member of the royal family, but I am also the King of Sirnus."

A thousand years ago, when my ancestor brought the first Iportians to this desolate land, he made a promise to all his people that they would enjoy peace and tranquility forever.

The name Sirnus is a testament to the promise of my ancestors.

But everything that happened afterward proved that we failed to fulfill this beautiful promise.

Not to mention that great tragedy back then... even now, the people of Iportu in the south are still suffering abuse and massacres at the hands of the Uma people.

Our royal family has failed all the people who trusted us.

But this is no excuse for the royal family to have forgotten this promise!

Eleanor rose from her throne, her eyes filled with unwavering resolve.

"The family rules can only bind the original Princess Eleanor."

But now, I am the king of all Iportans.

Although I am not capable of protecting my people, I am willing to pay any price for this goal.

Therefore, if there truly were a dual superhuman capable of saving all my people, my answer to him would certainly be...

Please, please save our home!!!
