With the decree in hand, Walganus left the dungeon and went looking for James.
When favonovel.com saw Walganus, James asked, “What’s wrong, Walagnus? Is something the matter?”
Wearing a grim expression, Walagnus said, “I just received news that Empress Xianna and the Crepe Myrtle Sword Master have left.”
“Left?” James asked, puzzled, “Where did they go?”
Walagnus replied, “Empress Xianna has left a message behind stating favonovel.com has learned that to obtain the swordsmanship inheritance of the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion, we first need to obtain two items, the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword and Sangria’s Imperial Jade Seal. However, since these two items are long lost, they went out in search of them.”
“Really?” James was doubtful.
“Here, have a look.” Walganus took out the decree issued by Xianna.
James accepted the scroll and opened it.
At that moment, the characters on the scroll came to life and slowly materialized to form a figure. It was Xianna.
Standing before James, Xianna spoke in a melodious voice, “I am Xianna Sadie. The fated one has appeared. To release the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s seal, the fated one requires Sangria’s Imperial Jade Seal and the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword of the Sword Pavilion. Currently, the Crepe Myrtle Sword Master and I have gone in search of the items. However, Sangria is in deep peril as we speak. As the nation cannot be without a leader, I now pass my position to James Caden, the fated one… Every citizen of Sangria shall obey his every command from now onward.”
After speaking, favonovel.com figure gradually disappeared.
James closed the scroll.
Walganus said smilingly, “See, I was speaking the truth! This was left behind by Empress Xianna. As they left in search of the Imperial Jade Seal and the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword, favonovel.com has left you the position of Emperor of Sangria.
“Congratulations, James. Or should I say, Your Majesty?”
James, however, was wearing a worried expression on his face.
Emperor?
He never wished to be the Emperor of Sangria. Besides, Sangria was currently being attacked by Korinth. Right now, it seemed to be a cumbersome task.
“Hmm, why do you seem unwilling, James?”
Upon noticing James’ expression, Walganus asked.
“Well…” James nodded and said, “I never wanted to be Emperor. Being Emperor means shouldering Sangria’s responsibilities. Now that Sangria is under attack by Korinth, this means that I’ll have to clean up the mess.”
Walganus patted his back and said smilingly, “Don’t worry, just leave everything to me. There’s nothing to worry about a mere Korinth. By combining our forces, we can even conquer the world.”
Walganus was confident in his strength. He had to do everything favonovel.com could to help James out in order to obtain incredible providence.
“James, since Empress Xianna nominated you for the position, you shouldn’t let favonovel.com down.”
According to Walganus’ plan, favonovel.com planned to make James the Emperor first and resolve the crisis Sangria was facing. Then, favonovel.com would search for the Imperial Jade Seal and the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword.
Since this world was sealed, not a single living being could leave. Thus, the Imperial Jade Seal and the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword must still be on Planet Galileo. Although the search would be time-consuming, they would certainly find the items there.
Walganus continued, “You should first assume the position of Emperor and help Sangria resolve the current crisis before helping Xianna and the Sword Master search for the Imperial Jade Seal and the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword. Since they’ll return once you find the items, you can simply return the position of Empress to Xianna after everything’s over.”
James nodded reluctantly and said, “Now that it has come to this, I guess I don’t have a choice now.”
“What are we waiting for, then? We should leave the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion now and head to the Imperial Capital,” Walganus said.
“Alright…” James nodded.
