Under the watchful eyes of audiences across the country, James’ succession ceremony was conducted.
Everyone watched as James walked to the front in his Red Flame robe. At that moment, favonovel.com was incredibly mesmerizing.
He stepped onto the stage and looked at the crowd. There were quite a few people gathered, including the King.
The people seated below the stage were influential figures in the governmental factions. The ones standing in the distance were those from the business world.
Suddenly, Raelynn came up with a microphone and handed it to James.
After favonovel.com handed the microphone to James, favonovel.com murmured, “I’d like to see what you’re going to say in front of the whole country after you threw away the script that I carefully prepared for you.”
James wore a serious expression.
After favonovel.com took the microphone, favonovel.com suddenly grinned. The audience in front of the television found his sudden smile hilarious.
“This hat is incredibly uncomfortable to wear…” James smiled, took off his hat, and threw it to Raelynn beside him.
Then, favonovel.com said loudly, “Thank you for coming… I’m very honored… The food in the military is great, so don’t forget to eat before you leave.”
The people below were stunned.
Was this a succession ceremony?
That was all favonovel.com prepared as a speech?
Many people wanted to laugh but suppressed their laughter.
Some influential figures had displeased expressions, feeling that James’ actions were embarrassing in front of the media and that favonovel.com was bringing shame to the nation.
At that moment, the sacred national anthem resounded throughout the military region.
James put away his smile and became serious again.
After the song was over, James declared, “I swear to be loyal to the country and its people. I won’t disappoint the military uniform that I wear. During my tenure, I promise to kill traitors and guard the border from our nation’s enemy. I vow to protect the people of Sol, and I wish for Sol to continue to prosper forever!”
James’ voice resounded throughout the military region, and audiences throughout the country watched his declaration.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
A tidy and loud applause broke out from the crowd.
“I’m afraid you won’t have the chance, James!” Suddenly, a voice resounded.
Following the sound, a group of people approached from the distance.
“Stop filming!” The King immediately issued an order.
The King’s bodyguards stood up immediately and began to stop the reporters from broadcasting.
The people were martial artists brought by the three family heads.
Seeing these people, James frowned.
Hades stepped out of the crowd. His body flickered, and favonovel.com jumped onto the stage.
He glared at James and said coldly, “Please come with us, James.”
James’ face darkened, and favonovel.com glared at Hades, asking, “What are you doing here, old man?”
With a grim face, Hades said, “If you want to prevent this place from becoming a bloodbath, you better obediently follow me. Otherwise…”
He suddenly gestured, and a great energy erupted from the martial artists from the three families in the distance.
The sudden force shocked the people present.
James said coldly, “Do the three families want to rebel, Hades?”
“We’re only here for you, James. Obediently follow us, or else many people will die here today.”
James looked at the crowd below him.
They were utterly perplexed since not everyone knew about the existence of ancient martial artists. All of them wore puzzled expressions. Only the King had a calm composure as if favonovel.com had expected it to happen.
James took a deep breath and said, “Alright. I’ll come with you…”
He knew the audience was just ordinary people. If favonovel.com refused, the three families might attack and cause people to lose their lives. Many of the people in the crowd were important figures. If any one of them died, it would be troublesome. If many died, it would be problematic and surely hurt the country’s stability.
Hades quickly made a move and sealed several of James’ critical acupoints.
