Chapter 766: The Most Famous Knight

The World Series knockout rounds are held in the famous ancient ruins - the City of the Sun. Legend has it that this was also the venue for a certain sun-related ceremony. It has now been booked by the [Hermes' Traveling Hat] and converted into an arena.

Herbie, who had first-hand information from Blazer, pieced together the funds. It was said that many senior shareholders had used up their own savings to finance the incident. Some people even planned to surrender themselves to the kingdom in exchange for a hefty reward.

Fortunately, [Hermes's Traveling Hat] has not yet reached that point of distress. They chose to borrow money directly from the Queen of Arcadia, the Lord of Fast Territory and the agent of New Asgard, and the Alliance of Giant Kingdoms.

Herbie, who successfully borrowed money, has become known for his catchphrase, "When you're in the world, connections are everything."

"Is the Chamber of Commerce really so..." Blaze originally wanted to use the word "poor" to describe it, but when he thought that some people were much richer than he imagined even if they went bankrupt, he changed to a more appropriate word.

"Is it difficult?"

"Brother, we are buying the city together with the land, okay?" Herbie rolled his eyes at Blazer, "This is a project that will benefit the future. It is normal for us to suffer and lose money in this era."

"In the final analysis, it's because we are too rich. We are tall and have to support the falling sky. If the three kingdoms were to unite to carry out this project, I guess they would start arguing over who would be responsible for such a huge amount of funds before it even starts."

"The suckers of the Giant Kingdom's royal family will shout, "We contributed, but we didn't get much money." The believers of the Holy Cross will say, "This is the only chance God has given you, a bunch of filthy bastards, to redeem your souls." The fanatical queen's loyal dogs of the Eternal Kingdom will directly raise their swords and ask, "Are you planning to do anything to our land?"

Herbie's performance was vivid and lifelike. Of course, it would have been better if the second princess Farasha, the representative of the giant royal family who was called a sucker, had not pushed the door in.

"...One of the three I just mentioned appeared behind me."

"At least there's an easy-to-talk-to one. If it were the other two, they would have pierced you anyway." Blaze raised his hand so that Herbie could crawl under his arm like a mouse.

"Hello, Princess."

Farasha glanced sideways at Hebie who was hiding behind Blaze and gave her a guilty smile. She ignored it and lifted the hem of her skirt towards Blaze and saluted him.

"Long time no see, Master Blaze."

That is a very formal court etiquette, used specifically when dealing with people of noble status.

However, as the Giens among the Giens, the Giant Royal Family is really not very good at court etiquette.

The court etiquette performed by Farasha, who looked nothing like a Giensian except for his body shape, can be said to be the first appearance of the court etiquette of the giant royal family after it was standardized.

Blaze was a little flattered and immediately wanted to return the favor. But he didn't know that although there was a well-known hand-kissing ceremony, he was wearing a helmet.

"Yeah." Blaze made the worst choice, which was to nod slightly and agree casually.

"If it were the Eternal Kingdom, there would be knights popping up around here, issuing suicide requests to you for offending the lady," Herbie muttered behind Blaze's back.

As for why it was a suicide request, challenging Blaze to a knight duel was nothing but suicide. With bare hands, there was a chance of survival, but if he used a sword or a gun, he would be dead for sure.

"I understand. I will try not to go to the Eternal Kingdom then."

"Hmm..." Hebi and Farasha looked at each other. Foreigners are big mouths, or rather, unconscious big mouths. They often talk without paying attention to others, so much so that they don't know what impact their words will have.

Although the stranger didn't say anything strange, most of the time he was talking about monsters in certain places and how powerful those monsters were.

[Black Beast Knight Blaze is so strong!] Lines like this often come out of strangers' mouths inadvertently. It's okay in other places, but it's not good in a place like the Eternal Kingdom where the theme is [Knight].

A large number of knights who were proud of their own strength were quite dissatisfied with this and often threatened to challenge the Black Beast Knight to a knight duel.

The stranger's reaction after hearing this was the same as Herbie's. He smiled without any malice and then said, "How can you be so desperate at such a young age?"

After this and that... Before Blaze went to the Eternal Kingdom, the legend of Blaze had already spread in the Eternal Kingdom. It was said that due to the unconscious spread of Blaze by foreigners, even the Queen of Eternity had some impression of Blaze.

Farasha and Herbie nodded in agreement, thinking it would be better not to tell Blaze about this.

Farasha was worried that Blaze would run to the Eternal Kingdom because there were many foreigners attracted to the Eternal Queen. Herbie simply thought it would be more interesting not to tell Blaze.

"For the sake of harmony between kingdoms, it is better not to act privately." Farasha emphasized, then coughed lightly and got to the point.

"As the next queen, I have something very important to confirm with you. When will [The Earth Shakes Up] happen?"

"..." Blaze frowned. Farasha's attitude was serious, so he also had to think carefully before answering.

"I think... even if the ritual of exchanging the earth and the sun is completed, [Heaven and Earth Turning Upside Down] will not happen. The key to making the earth deflect is the change of [weight], such as the death of a great monster, and it must be a monster of considerable importance."

When the Nemean Giants died, the earth did not change at all, but when the evil king Typhon died, he was only close to death, and the whole earth began to wail.

Blaze's answer made Farasha feel relieved, and then he explained.

[Turning the World Upside Down] will cause the map to change. On one hand, a large amount of territory will be lost, and on the other hand, a large amount of territory will be gained. At that time, the balance between the three kingdoms will inevitably be broken.

Not only that, if [Ultrasound] happens more than once, the kingdom's territory will be constantly changing, and even the strongest alliance will become fragile.

Farasha wanted to make sure that [Earth-shaking] would not happen immediately, so that she would have time to strengthen the relationship between the Giant Kingdom Alliance.

"At least I don't have to worry about the Kingdom of Arcadia."

"Don't worry." Blaze shook his head. "Audrey is very grateful to the Giant Kingdom for taking care of Arcadia. She will never betray the covenant because of this."

"The world has only become wider, but the bonds between people will not become more distant."

"And as long as we build a super-large transmission tower, it doesn't matter how far away they are."
