Chapter 279: Chapter 156 Insulting You is Insulting Our Yadun! (Seeking Monthly Votes)

“I bless you in the name of the Queen of Avalon.”

“When you hold it, death shall fear you, decay shall revere you, and wherever you go, all malice, pain, and injury will desperately avoid you.”

This was a grand hall akin to a colossal altar, where Hailbo knelt at the very center, holding a splendid Envoy’s scepter, and in front of him, his mentor Isefia was bestowing upon him and the scepter the blessings from the Queen of Avalon.

Guarded by countless laws and favored by the will of the world, as long as the adversaries’ powers did not transcend his mentor’s, nobody could harm Hailbo while he held the scepter.

“I bless you in the name of the Fairy Mother.”

“When you don this garment, fortune shall always be by your side, misfortune shall tremble in terror, and everything your eyes see and your hands touch shall turn decay into wonder.”

Lilith stood to Hailbo’s left, reciting the fairy incantations, pouring large amounts of Miracle Power into the diplomatic envoy attire worn by Hailbo, rendering it all the more holy, noble, and elegant.

“I bless you in the name of the mother of Silver Wing Pegasus and Unicorn.”

“You shall never lose your way, for no illusion or deceit can conceal the truth from you, and where you stand shall always be most tranquil!”

Sherri was at Hailbo’s right-hand side, releasing a silver-white Miracle Power, acting as the third person to guide Hailbo.

“I bless you in the name of the Lord of Greedy World.”

“Your body and soul shall not be coveted by others, and your voice shall bestow death and pain upon them; should you become angry, calamity shall transform into the fires of vengeance, sweeping across all beings!”

Lyon stood behind Hailbo, and if the three before him had granted Hailbo protection, then he endowed Hailbo with a special ‘power’.

“Lastly, I, as the King of Yatun, pledge.”

Bailuo: “You will represent our state, our kin, and our civilization in negotiations with foreigners.”

“If you are insulted on a mission, they insult our Yatun!”

As these words fell, the potent Miracle Power finally converged into one place.

It settled within Hailbo’s soul, his flesh, and into his eyes, ears, hands, feet, as well as the scepter in his hand and the diplomatic court attire on his body.

By this, Hailbo had received the protection of four grand Miracle Powers.

“Hailbo, I thank the sovereigns for their Grace.”

Hailbo reverently returned the gesture, then, supporting himself with the scepter, rose: “I shall strive to live up to your expectations and bring glory to our Yadun!”

Even though Bailuo had joked with Hailbo before, saying something like ‘the Cat Carriage will bring you back.’

But it was just a jest, for how could Bailuo allow his own subject, unprepared, to go to such dangerous foreign lands.

“Remember your mission, and when you return, I shall personally celebrate your achievements.”

Hailbo’s talents were indeed exceptional; he hadn’t received the blessing of the Mysterious Dragon, yet he could endure so much Miracle Power on his own.

Even though most of it was for recharging, and defensive in nature.

But to have four grand Miracle Powers converge within one being, it must be said, was truly awesome.

To achieve this, qualifications, loyalty, and recognition, all three were indispensable.

From this, it could be seen that Hailbo’s loyalty to Bailuo and his sense of belonging to Yatun had reached a level that transcended life and even the soul.

“Hailbo, you should get ready.”

Bailuo: “Perhaps say farewell to your friends as well, they must be quite important to you, aren’t they?”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Hailbo cherished his relationships with Silly Tiger and Ina dearly.

In addition, Yilona was his best friend; both men of like character and comparable talents, they held a mutual admiration for each other.

On the brink of departing for the Kingdom of Mountains, Hailbo had a few words he wished to share with Yilona.

“Your Majesty, Handlebar Mustache has awakened.”

Elsewhere, Gonnia relayed to Bailuo the news that Handlebar Mustache had come to.

“I’ll be right there.”

Handlebar Mustache was not a significant character.

But as a pawn once used by him, Bailuo was not so petty as to discard him outright.

Of course, that’s nonsense, the reality was that Handlebar Mustache still had some utility left.

“Holy, Mountains, Azure, Star Night, Iron Eagle, Brilliant—this man has conducted trade in over six great nations, more than fifty lordships.”

What Bailuo was interested in was not solely Handlebar Mustache, but the Three-Headed Dog Commerce Guild he represented.

The headquarters of this commerce guild was located in the Kingdom of Mountains and was a significantly large guild.

Under the banner of the Three-Headed Dog Commerce Guild were trade interests spanning seafood, minerals, jewelry, textiles, shipping, and dozens of other fields, wielding a startling influence among the Mortals of the Mountains.

If Bailuo wished to secure it, he had to utilize the pawn that was Handlebar Mustache.

“You…”

Handlebar Mustache had suffered tremendous internal damage due to the erosion of a curse.

Fortunately, with the healing influences of Saintly Aura and the life force of the Tree Elf, he was saved; otherwise, even if the curse had been lifted, his death would have been certain.

Seeing Bailuo approach, shrewd as he was, Handlebar Mustache immediately knelt to pay respects.

“Previously, I was blind and blasphemous, please forgive me, great divine being!”

The Saint of Dawnlight was depicted as a goddess in the folk tales of Handlebar Mustache’s people.

Handlebar Mustache had not witnessed the exchange between Avril and Bailuo.

But appearing here suggested that even if the other party was not a god, they probably weren’t far off from it.

In any case, the more respect shown the better; at worst, one might be laughed at, but not offensive.

“I am not any kind of divine being.”

Bailuo inquired: “Are you not acquainted with miracles?”

“Miracles?”

With humble origins, and merely a minor merchant, Handlebar Mustache was familiar with monsters, and he knew of Sea Beasts.
