Whispers of the Gods

Chapter 50 Monty V (1)

The delicate Vivaria diadem, which is held together by golden lilies with heraldry inlaid with rubies, emeralds, sapphires and pearls, culminated in rosettes made of pearls.

A crown of lilies on red velvet would look much nicer than the one carved on the stone pavilion of King Izdor Korva, Monty thought.

But maybe it was just because it was too cold in the cellar of Jaegerska Palace, or the topic of the dead king made the atmosphere too solemn, which made him lose the interest of calming down and admiring it.

The palace was full of people, they all came to attend the coronation of Queen Lozaria.He had never seen the coronation of King Vivaria, in fact, he had never seen the coronation of any king.

Ebluf Demityarid mentioned in his book "A Brief History of the Hastza Empire", that the first crown of the Hastza Empire was given by the "Great" Igmer Apoli Ang was made of pure gold and connected to each other by iron chains.

Before him, the kings of Hastza wore their ancestral crown of dark iron, lost to history as much as its material.

"Luxury" Lufried Apollion recast Igormel's crown, making it larger and adorned with 15-dollar gems.

But this crown was lost during the reign of the "loser".

Two years after his coronation, "The Lost Crown" Lyche Apollyon lost his ancestral crown and throne in a war with the Saverios.

After the 17 Years' War he donned the newly forged Hastza crown.This crown is smaller and made of pure gold.But this time, within two years, he was taken away by his cousin "The Great" Agric.

This is the only emperor in Hastza's history who was crowned twice and lost twice.

Monty stood to the side of the hall door, he didn't want to get too close to the throne.Queen Lozaria hadn't announced whether she would accept Zhuoke, and all this made him stand nervously.

He also didn't want to stand too close to the crowd, he couldn't stand the body odor of so many Vivarians.

As an ally of Vivaria, his father sat on the high seat, quietly scanning the nobles in the hall.He wears a fitted red tunic and a golden silk cloak.

After the quarrel in the living room, my father ordered the guards to guard outside his room day and night.The guards rode out of Smugberg in the dark and went to various provinces, but the most important ones were the Jingpu Province and Dragon's Back Province adjacent to the Vivalia Kingdom, as well as the Madkalin line where the city of Madkalin was located. Province.

The Governor of Static Pop Province is Monty's uncle, Clossel Apollyon, who has always been more reliable than his brother, High Priest Bechar.

Father always said that war was a last resort, but if Queen Lozaria rejected Zhuo Ke this time, it might really turn out to be like this.

Monty didn't know whether his father had been confident or bluffing in the drawing room, and if he had come to that point, he didn't want to believe that his father would divorce his mother and sever the alliance between the two countries.

His mother and Zhuo Ke sat on his left, looking serious and stiff.Not a word had been spoken between them since the death of Prince Leo Corva.

He tried to find his mother, trying to talk to her about Chuck and Prince Leo's death.But Ellen said she didn't want to see the two of them yet, let alone talk to them.

Prince Leo would not have died if he hadn't mentioned the lyrics of the Vivaria ballad to Zhuo Ke.He should think about it more, Zhuo Ke was a little impulsive, and he was in a bad mood that night and drank a lot of wine.Monty himself was responsible for Prince Leo's death.

Queen Lozaria sat on her throne, receiving gifts from people.She was dressed in a pale blue velvet gown with a dark blue crystal necklace around her neck.

The throne is made of marble, the two armrests are carved into the shape of dragon claws, and the backrest is a pair of half-expanded dragon wings.

Things have been messed up, and it has not been three days since the farce happened in the living room. Regarding his father's proposal, Monty doesn't know what Queen Lozaria thinks.

Zhuo Ke had killed their Prince Leo Corva, and he could feel the hostility in the eyes of the others as they looked at him.

The Korvas resented them for killing their lord, the other nobles were more likely to resent the Hastza for killing the Vivalians.

They were outsiders here, and what had happened at the Golden Feather had made that all the more clear to Monty.The Hastza were cast as invaders, and Forcade Apolion was slandered as a rapist.

Within this very hall, most Vivarians choose to speak their own language, though they know how to speak Hastza.

Only 120 years had passed since the end of the Hastza empire, and the land that had belonged to them had become strange and hostile.

The nobles of Vivaria had no scruples about conferring marquises on lands that had once belonged to the Empire.The Empire helped them in their peril, and they gave back in this way.

"She's beautiful, isn't she?" A thin young man appeared in front of him.

He has hazel hair, sly brown eyes, and an unmistakable harelip under his nose.

"Who?" Monty asked.

"Our queen," the man with the harelip answered in Hastza.

"Ah, um," Monty said casually.

"Your brother is tall and heroic, and the two look really good for each other." The man with the harelip said, looking at Zhuo Ke who was sitting on the seat.

Monty looked at him again and asked alertly, "Who are you?"

"I'm the same as you, Monty Apollyon. I'm the second son, a neglected child." The man glanced at the crowd in the front row. The man with the golden wheel?"

Monty followed his gaze, and a white-haired man similar to the man with a harelip was happily talking with Duke Jarus Perk.

"That's my father, 'Golden Stone' Lesek Zarek." The harelip man said, "The duke of Rock Pit City and Karben Castle, the richest man in the Vivalia Kingdom.

In the spring of this year, he married little Sinia of the Perk family, and the cost of the wedding was [-] vigric gold coins. "

"You are his second son..."

"Zimowit, His Highness the Second Prince of Hastza." He had a self-righteous smile on his face.

"What did you mean when you said my brother was a good fit for the Queen?" asked Monty.

"Smuggler's Castle is not very big, Monty Apollion," Zimovett said, "rumours are carried by the wind, and often they are accompanied by truth.

Your dear brother Drake Apollion killed Prince Leo Corva, and your father wants Her Majesty to marry him.What an interesting story. "
