Chapter 1785: Chapter 116 Queen’s Coronation_2 Chapter 1785: Chapter 116 Queen’s Coronation_2 Ariel Watson’s voice was lofty as she solemnly declared: “As your queen, I shall issue the first royal decree, to confer titles upon those who have made outstanding contributions to the kingdom. They are the heroes of the kingdom; this is the reward they rightfully deserve!”
After Ariel Watson finished speaking, a maid holding a scroll of parchnt approached the Marquis of Rufford, who then took the parchnt with both hands. Upon receiving Ariel Watson’s permission, he began to read aloud.
“Royal Decree, I, Ariel Watson, the twenty-second Coldfla King, hereby proclaim: My guest Mr. Leo Ray has perford exceptional services, stabilizing the nation and making immortal contributions, his rits comparable to the ancestral Hero King.”
“I hereby confer to my guest Mr. Leo Ray the titles of Coldfla Sacred Lion Prince, Dark Shadow Archduke, Marquis of Stargaze City, Earl of Sky Blue Town, Viscount of Ter Town, Baron of Magnestone Town, Royal Chief Honorary Knight. The 33 cities in the eastern region of the kingdom are all granted to my guest Mr. Leo Ray, hereditary and irrevocable!”
“Furthermore, I confer upon my guest Mr. Leo Ray the title of Coldfla Grand Duke, chief of the court, the head of the nobles, allowed to walk beside the king, to see the king without kneeling, to raise the King’s Flag, to ride the king’s chariot, seeing the Grand Duke as seeing . Let this be respected!”
As the Marquis of Rufford’s words fell, the atmosphere in the Grand Hall instantly heated up.
Eyes full of envy and admiration intensely focused on the composed Leo Ray.
It is known that the title of Coldfla Sacred Lion Prince represents the highest honor in the Coldfla Kingdom.
Historically, it’s only been granted to distinguished mbers of the Royal Family and the spouses of the previous Queens. The significance of this honor thus remains self-evident.
The position of the Grand Duke is imnsely powerful, only occasionally appearing in the history of the Coldfla Kingdom, capable of commanding all military forces, including the Royal Army Corps, and commanding all nobility to submit!
Most crucially, never before in the history of the Coldfla Kingdom has anyone simultaneously held both the highest positions of Sacred Lion Prince and Grand Duke!
Besides, Her Majesty the Queen also conferred the Archduke title to His Highness the Prince, placing the entire eastern region of the kingdom under his control.
This undoubtedly signifies that alongside the existing three Great Aristocratic Families, a new powerful aristocratic family has risen in the Coldfla Kingdom!
Each of these is considered the highest grace of the king, and now, all have fallen into the hands of one individual!
While the hearts of all present Coldfla Nobles filled with envy, both n and won, young and old, couldn’t help but cast their gaze towards Leo Ray with reverence and admiration, feeling truly convinced.
Leo Ray not only pacified the entire Coldfla Kingdom but indirectly saved the lives of everyone present. Earning such an astonishing reward, truly fitting the hopes of all, is rightfully deserved!
Apart from the Coldfla Nobles, other neutral representatives in attendance also cast awe-filled gazes.
This undoubtedly ans that a new, imnsely influential noble is rising within the Coldfla Kingdom!
As for Leo Ray’s subordinates and individuals like Quinn Serena and other lords, it goes without saying that they were extrely excited.
Everyone clearly understood, while today was Her Majesty Ariel Watson’s Coronation Ceremony, the real ‘King without a crown’ was the Lord!
As for Leo Ray, centered in the focus, upon hearing the nurous titles and privileges, he was montarily stunned.
Although Ariel Watson had ntioned last night that she had a small surprise and worldly honors prepared for him, he hadn’t expected it to be such a grand affair, especially the series of noble titles, which he montarily couldn’t even rember in full.
“But no matter, my na has already resonated throughout the Human various countries, this will not make much of a difference anymore.”
Leo Ray slightly raised an eyebrow, then stepped forward, chest-gesturing in a bow to Ariel Watson: “Thank you, Your Majesty, your servant pledges to exhaust all efforts for the kingdom and Your Majesty, unto death.”
Though Ariel Watson privately worshipped at Leo Ray’s feet, Leo Ray clearly understood that ceremonial etiquette was naturally still indispensable.
This concerned not just the face of Ariel Watson, the new King, but also the reputation of the entire Coldfla Kingdom.
“The Holy Lion Prince need not be too courteous; these are all your due rits.”
Ariel Watson smiled at Leo Ray, then her expression beca serious again as she nodded slightly to the old ceremonial officer, saying, “Marquis Rufford, please continue.”
“At your command, my King.”
Marquis of Rufford perford a chest-touching salute and continued, “Apart from our honored guest Leo Ray’s remarkable rits, my sister, the Third Princess Caroline Ward, has also made indispensable contributions. Not only has she successfully defended the Unfallen Fortress, but she has also fought valiantly nurous tis, truly a heroine among won, a model for the Royal Family.”
“Thus, I hereby appoint my sister Caroline Ward as the Commander of the Royal Northern Territory. Her rank shall be equivalent to that of a Grand Duke, and she shall continue to guard the Unfallen Fortress!”
After Marquis of Rufford finished speaking, Caroline imdiately stepped forward, knelt on one knee to show her loyalty, and solemnly said to Ariel Ward, “Your subject thanks My King, long live My King, may the heavens bless our king!”
At this mont, Caroline felt imnse gratitude and relief in her heart.
Because her beloved younger sister had transford from a caterpillar into a butterfly, becoming the monarch of a nation! And she will continue to fight under the Royal Flag and fulfill the duties of the Royal Family and as a sister.
“Sister, please rise, I will still rely on my sister in the future.”
Ariel gave a slight nod and smiled faintly at Caroline.
The appointnt of Caroline was actually decided by Leo Ray, with the intention of letting Caroline take charge of the entire Northern Territory and ensuring its complete defense.
However, since the Third Princess position was yet to be officially confird, and so uncertainties still existed, Leo Ray did not explicitly ntion this aspect, all for the stabilization of Ariel Ward’s Royal Authority.
Once Caroline assud her position, the Marquis of Rufford’s aged yet robust voice resonated once again, “Mr. Wilson and the White Knight have also made remarkable contributions, truly deserving to be called Coldfla’s National Guardian Powerhouses.”
“Mr. Wilson is hereby appointed as the Royal Grand Marshal, with a rank equivalent to a Duke, and will continue to command the Imperial Guard Corps and other court troops.”
“The White Knight is hereby appointed as the Commander of the Royal Eastern Region, with a rank equivalent to a Duke, assisting the Sacred Lion Prince in governing the Eastern Region.”
“Additionally, the War God Taylor, Space Magic Teacher Jiang Li, Fire Sorcerer Lucy, and Summoning Magician Nolan, four National Guardian-level powerhouses, have helped and the Sacred Lion Prince stabilize the nation and have made remarkable contributions.”
“The War God Taylor is hereby appointed as the Commander of the Southern Region under the Sacred Lion Prince, with a rank equivalent to a Duke, assisting the Sacred Lion Prince in governing the Eastern Region of the Kingdom.”
“The Space Magic Teacher Jiang Li is hereby appointed as the Commander of the Northern Region under the Sacred Lion Prince, with a rank equivalent to a Duke, assisting the Sacred Lion Prince in governing the Eastern Region of the Kingdom.”
“The Fire Sorcerer Lucy is hereby appointed as the Commander of the Eastern Region under the Sacred Lion Prince, with a rank equivalent to a Duke, assisting the Sacred Lion Prince in governing the Eastern Region of the Kingdom.”
“The Summoning Magician Nolan is hereby appointed as the Commander of the Western Region under the Sacred Lion Prince, with a rank equivalent to a Duke, assisting the Sacred Lion Prince in governing the Eastern Region of the Kingdom.”
As the Marquis of Rufford’s booming voice concluded, Mr. Wilson, the White Knight, Taylor, Jiang Li, Red Night, and Nolan, all six Tier 5 powerhouses, simultaneously stepped forward, knelt down, and in unison declared, “Your subjects thank My King, long live My King, may the heavens bless our king!”
The appointnts of these six Tier 5 powerhouses were naturally determined by Leo Ray himself.
Mr. Wilson’s case was clear, aside from an increase in rank, his position remained the sa.
This mysteriously powerful Tier 5 powerhouse had proven his loyalty to the Royal Family through many battles.
Leo Ray only needed to verify his true identity to entrust him with more authority and better assist Ariel in managing the court.
For White Knight, Taylor, Jiang Li, Red Night, and Nolan, there was no need to ntion; they naturally remained under Leo Ray’s command.
It’s worth ntioning that to prevent the leaking of Red Night’s real na and consequently exposing her Dragon Clan identity, Leo Ray casually gave her a new na, Lucy, which she seems to quite like.
In order to retain Nolan, Leo Ray spared no expense, directly assigning him a rank just below that of a Grand Duke, the pinnacle for all Coldfla nobility.
Of course, this was just the beginning, and naturally, Leo Ray would offer more benefits later to completely secure this competent yet inexperienced Tier 5 powerhouse.
In the golden, resplendent Grand Hall, seeing six imnsely powerful Tier 5 powerhouses being honored one after another by Her Majesty the Queen.
The crowd once again erupted into excitent.
