Chapter 1069 Phoenix King

The ceremony lasted for a long time, so long that no one dared to judge whether Imrik succeeded.

Aenarion came to sacrifice himself, and no one knew how long it took, and the same was true for the other Phoenix King who burned himself.

But now if someone dared to say that Asuryan's wrath had burned Prince Caledor to ashes, the Flame Knights would immediately use physical means to let the speaker enter the holy fire to see the prince's great appearance in the trial.

Among them, Kuran was the most entangled. On the one hand, he hoped that Imrik would not succeed, so that he would have no reason to surrender to him and be loyal to Malekith.

But from another perspective, if he died, it would mean that Naggaroth Druzy, who was already dissatisfied with surrender, would immediately flee Ulthuan and continue to spread fear to all parts of the world.

This was seriously inconsistent with Malekith's last words.

The contradiction of the oath made Kuran a little haggard, and he wished he could rush into the platinum phoenix flames to end his life.

When he could no longer bear the pain in his heart after waiting for too long, he was ready to rush in, but found that someone had already occupied the entrance.

Imrik stroked his chin and asked with a little confusion: "Did you hear the words of Asuryan and are you ready to pledge allegiance to me?"

Kulan was a little embarrassed for a moment, but since Imrik came out, he had no reason to go in, so he could only slowly retreat.

The first person to discover Imrik's abnormality was Kadron. He had never felt such a strong power of Asuryan in a person's body. Even Malekith, who had been assigned a destiny, was at best a trumpet of Asuryan.

But Imrik... Although he seemed to be no different from before entering the Holy Fire, the captain of the Phoenix Guard could feel that he was Asuryan in the world.

Asuryan could not speak, which was well known to the Phoenix Guard, so the only possibility was that Imrik had received the gift...

As for whether there were other possibilities... Kadron did not dare to think about it, nor did he want to think about it.

The remaining two hundred or so Phoenix Guards all knelt before Imrik and bowed their heads to show their submission.

This undoubtedly shows that the Phoenix Guards have recognized Imrik's identity, which is far more sacred than using the fire avoidance spell to let the high priest declare it.

As for the second one to kneel, it was the dragon princes who had been loyal to the Caledor family for thousands of years. Their long-cherished wish for many years was realized. Duruzi existed in name only, and the throne of the Phoenix King fell to Caledor again. The dragons have awakened.

Imrik did not live up to his oath to inherit his father's throne.

The rest of the people also expressed their submission to Imrik, except...

Atila and Kulan.

Atila was a little embarrassed. It was not that she was unwilling to salute. Multiple identities were very common among the Asur.

Compared with the awkward atmosphere when she first met her husband, it was easy to just kneel on one knee symbolically.

She just thought that if Imrik became the Phoenix King, his nominal wife would become Alarielle.

After waiting for so long, I still lost in this aspect...

As for Kuran, it was even more troublesome. He was determined not to kneel down to the elves except Malekith, but everyone was waiting for his attitude. It would be better not to kneel down, because then there would be a reason to kill all of Druz.

Kneeling or not was not decided by Kuran. Draknir did not hide his powerful spellcasting ability in front of everyone. He pressed the captain of the Black Guard, whose knees were already weak, to the ground with just his mind.

After everyone in front of him expressed his submission, Imrick smiled with relief. After all the twists and turns, he still sat on the position of the Phoenix King.

From now on, he is more qualified to be foul-mouthed. After death, will he be given the posthumous title of the foul-mouthed king because of his past deeds of liking to be offensive?

While thinking about it, he did not forget the business and announced the first decree of the Phoenix King.

"I was summoned by God when the elves were in danger... ahem."

I wanted to imitate the usual tone of the Phoenix King, but the strange looks of Atila, Draknir, Eltharion, Arao and a group of dragon princes made Imrick give up this idea.

It is not a good thing to be a military leader for too long. I am not used to the official tone.

Waving his hand to indicate that these useless words were over, Imrick stared at the Shadow King and said.

"Aris Anar, are you willing to bring Nagaryth back to the Phoenix Court and become a part of Ulthuan as a formal kingdom?"

The Shadow King's previous identity was very sensitive. He could only be said to have a cooperative relationship with the Phoenix Court and did not intervene in normal affairs. His relationship with the Phoenix King could be regarded as a brother at most.

And Imrick's words were undoubtedly ready to return Ulthuan to a unified state.

"Of course, Nagarys has always been part of the Phoenix Court."

Imric nodded, "Very good, you will rule the kingdom as the Prince of Nagarys. This land has been devastated by war for too long, and the Phoenix Court will do its best to help."

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."

After finishing the arrangement with the Shadow King, Imric prepared to give a big gift to the ally who had always provided support for a long time.

"Eltharion, in the past wars, you always showed the fanatical side of the Son of Yvresse, leading the proud Knights of Tar Ghevor to defeat the enemies of Ulthuan.

You have obtained the title of Prince of Yvresse from your father, and I really have no right to confer the title. Since the former War Lord Tyrion who pulled out the Sword of Khaine has died at the hands of his brother Teclis, I will appoint you as the leader of the War Council in the name of the Phoenix King, and command the military affairs of the Phoenix Court."

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty." Eltharion pounded his chest solemnly, but then his face showed some hesitation, as if he wanted to say something.

"Please speak up."

"Regarding Teclis, how do you plan to deal with him?"

This is a sensitive issue. There is still no new Supreme Mage in the White Tower of Hoth, and he is still the leader of Safri in terms of official status.

Although he defected several times in the middle, the final result was that Teclis sacrificed his relatives for the sake of justice and turned against his own side to destroy the mage position of Druzy. In terms of merit, it far outweighed the mistakes he made in the past.

But he happened to be the chosen one of Lilith... It's really a headache.

"Although the Supreme Mage made some mistakes, they were all for the overall consideration. If he hadn't endured the humiliation and seen through Lilith's conspiracy and lurked beside Malekith, it would have been extremely difficult to win this war."

Imrick did not explain how to deal with Teclis, but his address to him revealed his attitude.

Teclis is still the Supreme Mage, and will not change because of some criticism.

Eltharion was grateful. He and the Tyrion brothers had known each other since childhood. Now that Tyrion was dead, his brother could gain the reputation of a hero, perhaps to commemorate the deceased.

The rest was for Imrik to arrange how the countries should carry out post-war construction. As for how to deal with Druz, he did not say a word.

As for whether to kneel down and propose to the queen first, and then exercise the power of the Phoenix King after obtaining permission, Imrik was too lazy to do too many formalistic things. If not, he would let Alarielle, who was waiting outside the temple, come in to see who had the loudest voice. (End of this chapter)
