Chapter 2241: Chapter 1247: Entry Ceremony
Looking at the short-haired maid Barbara in front of him, whose amusing appearance was reminiscent of Scarlett, Leo Ray couldnât help but smile knowingly, thinking she was indeed a replica of that girl.
âHowever, Scarlett is now a Tier 5 Powerhouse, so her impulsive nature might change a bit, right?â
With this thought, Leo Ray pulled his mind back to reality and casually inquired about the recovery status of Barbaraâs father, Jess.
âYour Highnessâs concern overwhelms me!â
Upon hearing Leo Rayâs concern, Barbara was so moved she almost burst into tears, sniffled, and quickly said, âMy father has recovered almost completely, thanks to the Magic Medicine bestowed by your Highness. I thank you on behalf of my father for saving his life!â
In her excitement, Barbara was about to kneel back on the ground, but was stopped by Leo Ray.
âThis is what your father deserves; with his actions, he has earned my recognition. His courage is enough to be remembered by the Human World.â
Leo Ray maintained a gentle smile and spoke.
âHeartfelt thanks for your Highnessâs recognition; my father will surely be so thrilled by these words that heâll jump out of bed! You know, my father is constantly talking about your Highness, proud to have witnessed you in person at Lawrenceâs Coronation Ceremony.â
Barbara nodded heavily, and a look of solemnity came over her fair face, as she said, âI also resolved to join the Holy Light Maid Corps, which is part of the Temple of Lightâs reorganization, determined to serve your Highness in my own way, encouraged by my father!â
After Barbara finished speaking, other maids, including Bicrass, also nodded along, showing their experiences were similar to hers.
Seeing this, Ariel Watson, Catherine, and Cecilia exchanged smiles.
As monarchs of their countries, they clearly understood that this scene was not exceptional, but had become quite common across the Human World.
Under the Lordâs grace, not only his direct subordinates like them, but countless nobility, generals, and even civilians from remote places sincerely revered and were grateful to the Lord.
This same pure emotion was quickly melting away the hatred, contempt, and prejudices created by years of war between various nations in the Human World.
In its place was a shared ideal and belief: to revitalize the entire Human World, allowing the weakened human clan to return to the forefront among the Ten Thousand Clans, regaining respect and attention!
In other words, under the Lordâs guidance, the entire Human World was rapidly merging, striving towards a common goalâa great achievement not seen since the Era of Blankness!
âMoreover, the starry ocean that the Lord pursues is not merely to restore the glory of the human clan but to explore the ultimate truth of this world, conquering the Ten Thousand Clans simultaneously!â
Arielâs starry eyes were shining brightly, filled with excitement.
âTo unravel the mysteries of the Era of Blankness, the truth of the godsâ departure, the secret of the billion Lordsâ adventâto connect the blank timeline deliberately hidden by some force, integrate the resources of the entire continent, and prepare for the upcoming continental wars and the ever potentially coming Great Catastrophe!â
Thinking of this, Arielâs heart grew increasingly fervent.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray conversed with several other maids before being seen off by their excited gazes; he then chatted a while with Rudy Blues and other chefs, finally pulling the reluctant Louise out the back kitchen door.
âThe Lord is indeed extraordinary; surely these young fans will remember todayâs events forever, right?â
Ariel first glanced at Barbara and others, still glowing with excitement, then followed Leo Rayâs footsteps to leave this area together.
As the group re-entered the starting hall, a petite, delicate figure had already appeared before them.
Her face was fair and exquisite, her demeanor elegant and noble, her high ponytail adding a touch of spirited boldness. The small, quaint crown on her forehead spoke to her noble status.
Without needing much say, it was naturally Pelican Princess Faye.
âYoung man, we meet again.â
Seeing Leo Rayâs figure, Faye maintained her mature demeanor that didnât match her appearance, smiling as she approached, saying, âApologies, I got so absorbed in repairing the Barrier earlier that I almost forgot the Banquetâs time.â
âPrincess busy rebuilding this cityâwhy speak of apologies? Besides, youâre right on time.â
Leo Ray smiled, waving his hand in response.
Since everyone had already seen Fayeâs true form, except Ariel and Faye who were meeting for the first time, Leo Ray introduced Ariel briefly.
âThank you, Pelican Princess, for lending a hand at the critical moment, or else the fate of him and the Human World would be unpredictable.â
Upon getting acquainted, Ariel looked at Faye with gratitude.
âYour Majesty neednât be polite; I was merely assistingâthe true decisive hero is naturally your His Royal Highness the Holy Lion.â
Faye smiled in reply, âHis Royal Highness the Holy Lion mentioned Your Majesty several times during that time in the Temple of Light. Todayâs encounter proves to be exceptional indeed.â
