Chapter 462: Chapter 357 His Majesty the King’s Generosity_2

Morton gently caressed the crown placed before him, his mind already anticipating some possibilities.

Fusis glanced at His Majesty the King, then turned to Lis and asked,

“Is this…”

“It’s the crown of the King of Bodici. I got this crown from the king and brought it back to present to His Majesty King Morton.”

“Good, good… cough, cough!”

King Morton smiled with relief, then suddenly coughed several times.

He waved his hand, not minding the expression Fusis had, who seemed to want to say something.

For Morton, as the King of Feis, even if a crown was made of the most precious materials, what of it? Possessing the wealth of a kingdom, he did not care about such things.

However, the crown before him was the crown of the King of Bodici, which in some ways also represented the authority of the King of Bodici.

Now, it was held in his hands, almost amounting to possess the sovereignty of the Boditch Kingdom.

Although this was just a conceptual idea and could not be equated directly, it still made King Morton quite happy and joyful.

“Of course, although I also brought back the body of the King of Bodici, I thought that only this would be suitable to present to you.”

While saying this, Lis kept observing King Morton’s condition, feeling that the old king seemed increasingly frail…

King Morton looked at Lis and said with an amicable smile,

“Little Lis, you truly brought me a surprise!”

Lis smiled, for him, it was just something he did along the way.

“Haha, you’ve done so much, I don’t even know what reward I can give you!”

King Morton looked at Lis with a meaningful expression and said,

“Why not, Lis, tell me what you want?”

Lis was silent for a moment, then naturally said,

“Your Majesty, I indeed have a desire, I hope you can reward it to me.”

“Oh?”

King Morton’s eyes twinkled with amusement, gesturing for Lis to continue.

“On my way back this time, I passed through Danerluo Port of the Boditch Kingdom. I would like to ask you to grant it to me as a domain.”

“Hmm?”

King Morton seemed somewhat surprised, not expecting Lis to make such a request.

Danerluo Port, he was well aware, was the most thriving port city of the Boditch Kingdom, and besides Luminous Stone City, it was the largest and most important city there.

For most nobles, it indeed was a lucrative piece of land.

But compared to that, he had thought…

Fusis immediately looked at Lis and said,

“Our Marquis Kane seems to have taken an interest in that domain, although it indeed is quite a good place. However, staying in Bright City, you might receive more.”

Fusis’s words were not just filled with hidden meanings, afraid that Lis might not understand what they were talking about, it was almost explicitly said.

Lis fully understood what Fusis meant, yet he did not intend to give up Danerluo Port.

To be honest, the future of Bright City indeed seemed tempting, but perhaps somewhat too comfortable.

Moreover, Danerluo Port was crucial to his future plans.

Whether it was the Azela Floating City or the future falling of the “Phillips Crystal”, both were extremely important to Lis.

If he stayed constantly in Bright City, he might still possibly break through to become a legendary strongman, but that would be about it.

For the Kingdom of Feis, a Legendary Mage was already strong enough, but Lis, who knew deeply about the impending chaos in the Gaia World, was naturally no longer satisfied with being a mere Legendary Arcanist.

He aimed to stand at the peak like the teacher of the “Judgement Flame”, or even stronger!

Perhaps noticing the determination in Lis’s eyes, King Morton, originally planning to persuade, did not reject the idea anymore.

Though he thought of Lis as the future companion and advisor to Taya.

“With the accomplishments you have achieved, a Danerluo Port is nothing to you…”

King Morton was silent for a moment, then said,

“Well then, I shall elevate your title to Duke, and as for the domain, it includes the entire Luou Peninsula including Danerluo Port!”

Hmm?!

Lis, having lived around the Pearl Sea for a long time, was naturally aware of the Luou Peninsula, which extended a piece of land into the sea to the south of the Boditch Kingdom, corresponding to the Taize Peninsula to the north across the mainland. The sea areas between and around the two peninsulas were the Pearl Sea.

Moreover, Danerluo Port was located on the Luou Peninsula, closer to the Fanor continent.

This showed the extensive area of the Luou Peninsula, almost equivalent to two half-Duke domains.

Moreover, compared to the barren Taize Peninsula, the soil of the Luou Peninsula was quite fertile, one of the richest regions in the Boditch Kingdom.

If the entire Luou Peninsula was truly granted to Lis, it would almost be equivalent to a new duchy.

The Feis Kingdom had never had a duke with such a vast domain!

Even Lis did not expect King Morton to be so generous!

In King Morton’s view, it was nothing.

After all, the feats Lis had achieved were indeed extraordinary, more crucial than leading and achieving victory in the decisive battle against the Boditch Kingdom, and almost suppressing the Dillon Kingdom thereafter.

King Morton also knew that after that, Legendary Mage Stephens and the legendary assassin had both visited the Dillon Kingdom.

This allowed the Feis_Kingdom to eliminate the biggest hidden danger in the war against the Bodith Kingdom, almost unaffected by the external kingdoms.

Since starting the war against the Boditch Kingdom, more and more human kingdoms had also begun to stir.

According to the information received by King Morton, many kings had already started skirmishes at their respective borders, hardly hiding their greedy thoughts anymore.
