Bone King: Homemade plug-in, I am the god of destiny Chapter 145

“Is that so…”

Rambusa III learned of the past few days’ circumstances of Senac and his group. While relieved, he also felt worried.

The main reason for Senac’s group being detained by the Faith of Destiny was Renner. It was good that Renner hadn’t been subjected to violence.

However, the Faith of Destiny hadn’t interrogated them, only put them under house arrest. There were likely two reasons for this behavior.

The first possibility was that the Faith of Destiny already had sufficient evidence and didn’t need to question Renner to confirm her collusion with the Great Tomb of Nazarick organization.

The second possibility was that the Faith of Destiny never intended to deal with Renner themselves, but instead planned to let the Kingdom conduct the trial, merely seeking justice.

Currently, the second possibility seemed more likely.

However, Rambusa III felt that it wasn’t that simple. If the matter of Renner wasn’t handled properly, the Kingdom would face an unimaginable catastrophe.

“Renner…”

Rambusa III couldn’t help but look up at the carriage ceiling, letting out a long sigh.

…

Time flowed, and night soon fell.

Hundreds of miles away, in the capital of another country, a special reception was about to begin.

This was the Dragon Kingdom, a human nation established two hundred years ago by one of the True Dragon Lords who mastered the [Primordial Magic] of the New World: the Platinum Dragon Lord.

The Platinum Dragon Lord was the most unique existence among all True Dragon Lords… no, among all dragons.

Normally, there was reproductive isolation between different races in the New World. That is, if two of the three races—humanoids, demi-humans, and heteromorphic beings—interbred, they couldn’t produce offspring.

However, it wasn’t absolute. Powerful races like dragons, demons, and angels could disregard the limitations of reproductive isolation and procreate with any living being.

Ability was only one aspect. Considering the differences in size and body structure, most dragons wouldn’t choose to mate with other races, but the Platinum Dragon Lord was an exception.

It was very keen on spreading its bloodline and even developed a special transformation magic that could change its form.

The current leader of the Dragon Kingdom, the Dragon Princess Draudillon Oriculus, was a descendant of the Platinum Dragon Lord and the first Dragon Princess, inheriting one-eighth of the Platinum Dragon Lord’s bloodline.

According to the original author, the Platinum Dragon Lord’s behavior of sowing its seeds everywhere was akin to how humans would view a fellow human copulating with a goat while shouting, ‘Get pregnant!’—a complete pervert.

Returning to the main topic, although the Dragon Kingdom was established with the Platinum Dragon Lord’s help, it didn’t care much for this human nation. It usually lived on the peak of the mountain in the Central Continent, known as the world’s highest.

Therefore, the Dragon Kingdom hadn’t received much benefit from the Platinum Dragon Lord. It often faced invasions from the neighboring Beastman Kingdom to the east, and because the human race’s abilities were too inferior compared to the beastmen, they were at a complete disadvantage in war.

To maintain the nation’s existence, the Dragon Kingdom’s military system adopted a total war strategy of universal conscription. Furthermore, they donated large sums of money to the Theocracy annually in exchange for military support, leaving the national treasury almost in deficit.

Even so, the Dragon Kingdom found it extremely difficult to resist the beastman invasions.

If the Beastman Kingdom hadn’t always treated the Dragon Kingdom as a hunting ground for automatically increasing their food supply and had never launched a full-scale invasion, the Dragon Kingdom might have been annihilated long ago.

The Dragon Kingdom’s Royal Palace Assembly Hall.

Due to the national treasury’s issues, this hall, symbolizing royal power, didn’t look particularly magnificent, but it was grand and imposing, maintaining its proper dignity.

A red carpet extended from the hall’s entrance to its deepest part, stopping before the throne’s steps.

On the platform, a small-figured girl sat on a gold-plated throne.

She wore a delicate crown on her head, her black hair cascaded smoothly down her back, and she wore a black dress that accentuated her beautiful legs.

The girl was none other than the current queen of the Dragon Kingdom, Dragon Princess Draudillon Oriculus.

Standing beside her throne, dressed in noble attire and wearing a monocle, was the middle-aged man who served as the Dragon Kingdom’s current Prime Minister, Hermann Joralf.

As the appointed time approached, Draudillon couldn’t help but look at Hermann, subtly kicking his shin with her delicate leg.

Hermann glanced back slightly, then asked the blond man below the royal steps, “Lord Quintia, have our esteemed guests from the Faith of Destiny not arrived yet?”

“Prime Minister, Your Majesty Oriculus, please wait a moment. I believe…”

The gentle-faced smiling man was a member of the Theocracy’s Black Scripture, Kuin Tias Hassea Quintia, codenamed [Single Platoon].

After Hermann’s inquiry, he was about to explain something but was interrupted by a sudden magic communication.

After being momentarily distracted for two seconds, Quintia smiled and asked for permission from Draudillon, “Your Majesty Oriculus, the esteemed individuals from the Faith of Destiny have locked onto the spatial coordinates. They ask me to request your permission for them to teleport here?”

“Oh, really! Alright, I permit it!”

Draudillon’s expression was no different from that of an ordinary innocent girl. She seemed very interested in teleportation magic, eager to witness it.

This was quite reasonable.

Because according to Quintia, the people from the Faith of Destiny were in the city of Re-Estize Kingdom, hundreds of miles away. Such long-distance spatial crossing magic was at least of the Fifth Tier.

This meant that anyone capable of using this magic had successfully entered the Heroic Realm.

Children admired heroes, especially in the Dragon Kingdom, where powerful adventurers and workers who participated actively in resisting the Beastman Kingdom’s invasions were highly respected by the populace.

However, Quintia’s smile stiffened slightly when he saw Draudillon’s reaction.

Although this Dragon Princess appeared very young, around ten years old, her true age was actually close to sixty, which, by normal human standards, would make her a grandmother.

I mustn’t be too rude.

Quintia reminded himself, then bowed slightly to Draudillon, relaying the permission to the person on the other end of the magic communication.

The next second, under the gaze of everyone in the Dragon Kingdom, spatial fluctuations appeared. Amidst flickering illusions, a dozen or so people appeared in the hall.

Leading them was a young girl in white priest robes.

As if confirming everyone’s identities, her eyes swept over them, finally resting on Draudillon. She respectfully stepped forward and bowed, saying:

“Your Majesty Oriculus, esteemed Queen of the Dragon Kingdom, I am Anri Emmert, Chief Priest of the Faith of Destiny, and I come to you by divine decree.”
