"I won?! No! Don't you fucking joke!! Fight me!" Tristan lifted his weapon again.
He was shocked that the shitty King would just throw the fight and give up like that.
Not that he doesn't wish to win. He does! He really tried his best. But it just annoyed him that he didn't really get a chance to put some really satisfying punch to the shitty King.
Just a moment ago, The King did throw up a large amount of blood. But now he had already managed to stand up fully straight. His wounds have all disappeared as well, leaving him looking as healthy as the fight never happened. Now seeing the King's calm gaze while saying he surrendered just irritated him even more.
The King shrugged and answered. "No, I admit defeat. You won fair and square! Your transformation is indeed very powerful, but that instant regeneration really sealed my defeat."
Tristan gave a deep sigh. He knew that what the king was saying was a fact, but on the other hand, he had hoped the all-out fight to the death would at least end with the king sprawled out on the ground beneath his feet, lying helpless as Tristan unleashed all his pent-up anger.
A moment later, Tobias and Serene approached the two of them.
"What is going on?!" Serene couldn't hide her utter shock and bewilderment, while Tobias looked calm, but was also sporting a heavy frown. Thanks to their enhanced senses, both of them could hear what the king was saying from afar. Though they had heard what happened loud and clear, Serene still refused to believe it.
King Callan merely looked at Serene and said "Congratulations, cousin, you are now Queen of Arcadia. Finally, your long-time childhood dream will finally come true."
"Callan, this is no time for jokes! What is the meaning of this?!"
"What confused you, Serene?" The king shrugged and faced her. "I just lost fair and square in a duel where two equal bets were placed. Now that your husband has won, he is now the new ruler of Arcadia."
While the two continued arguing, Tristan was busy processing what just happened. Callan managed to placate his cousin with a few simple words, before he approached Tobias and the two seemed to argue about what such a bad idea this is.
Tristan couldn't hear clearly what Callan was saying, but for a second, the court mage's normally stoic expression darkened a little, before it returned to the usual calm one as if it never happened. Their conversation only lasted for a few minutes, before Callan walked closer to Tristan and said;
"Now, you are the ruler. Prove it to us, show how you can rule better than me like you said! Don't make me ever think that the legendary blood elf is nothing but big words!"
"No, I will not! you shall see!"
Tobias approached, interrupted the king and said.
"My king, what are you planning to do now? Don't tell me you-"
Callan quickly stopped him and said "Tobias, I am not your king anymore. Do not desecrate the oath you made to my father and to the throne."
The great wizard nodded in silence and gave Callan a slight bow.
Callan looked upon Tristan once more. There was no hint of mockery in his gaze, only a sincere smile and a warm expression. "Arcadia is your responsibility now. I have ruled for 80 years,now let's hope you can last longer."
Right after Callan finished speaking, he looked at Serene for a second, before his feet left the ground. He floated off the ground for a few seconds before flying away to the sky. In a way, he looked like a rocket.
It suddenly hit Tristan that as the king was on Katra 5 or even 6, he must have an immortal body just like that of Janus. Then all the things the king said about Tristan winning due to his regeneration ability was nothing but a ruse.
Besides, the king must have one or two tier 7 spells at his disposal. There was no way he could win if the king used them from the start.
Tristan stared at Tobias, deep suspicion forming in his gut. What are they really planning?
He took a deep breath and reminded himself, regardless of what the king is doing, he still won and he is now the ruler of Arcadia. Sooner or later, he will discover Callan's schemes.
Not long after the king left, the Kingsblade approached and Tobias introduced Tristan as the new king. Most were surprised. If they were like this, Tristan wondered how Uriel and the rest would react when they found out.
Tobias came to him and hesitated for a second, before the wizard bowed as a greeting. "My King, I am Tobias, the court mage and the advisor of the king. It is my hope to be able to keep using my knowledge to advise you as the new king."
Tristan immediately accepted. Of course, blindly accepting would be stupid, as he couldn't know where the court mage's loyalties truly lie. But right now, he was handed an entire kingdom and he knew almost nothing about its internal workings, so having an advisor would be a tremendous help. Besides, he could decide what to do with the mage later after he learned more about the kingdom.
He smiled back at Tobias and said.
"Yes thank you, Tobias, your counsel will definitely be needed."
Tobias nodded and asked. "What do you wish to do now, my king? I suggest we head back to the capital right away."
Tristan agreed with the suggestion, but first, he turned around, looking at the hordes of orcs who had turned restless after watching the fight without having their own piece of action. Tristan turn concern and thought
"Now, what should I do with all of you orcs…"
