Chapter 511 Ceremony (Third Shift Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Aalto, the city of psalms, the summer palace of Lata.
After listening to the news conveyed by the new Cardinal Philippe Bell of the Diocese of Waorit, Natasha couldn't hide her sadness: "I didn't expect that my grandfather and uncle would be called by the Lord one after another."
Although he knew that King Feltis was old and frail, and Prince Patrick was frail and sickly, he was ready to hear bad news in recent years, but this kind of thing, no matter how mentally prepared she was, Natasha couldn't control the grief that surged in her heart.
"Patrick still hasn't inherited the throne......" Archduke Vaulit, who knew Hoffenberg's royal family better than Natasha, sighed softly, but didn't say much, but looked at Natasha in a white court dress lovingly, "Are you willing, go to Rentat to inherit the throne of the Holm Kingdom?"
Natasha thought of Hathaway, Lucian, then at her father who was obviously old in front of her, at his purple silver-white hair, and shook her head resolutely: "There are many heirs in the Kingdom of Holm, and you only have me."
"I have been taught since I was a child to shoulder the responsibilities of the Violet family and the Duchy of Vaorit, how can I leave here?"
Grand Duchess Valire patted Natasha on the shoulder comfortingly, looked at her daughter who was already a little taller than herself, and smiled slightly: "What if I say, I want you to go?"
Oh? Natasha was stunned.
Philip Bell, who had a beard, said kindly: "It's not that you can't come back, although the church does not allow the Kingdom of Holm and the Duchy of Vaorit to merge, but you can hold the same position, and wait until the future to let different descendants inherit, so you can be in the Kingdom of Holm for one year, and in the Principality of Vaorit for one year, the teleportation array will be open to you, which is the church's reward for so many years of piety to you and your family."
In this way, it is not only convenient to control Natasha, but also convenient to guide the nobles to get used to "autonomy" and provoke conflicts between royal power and ordinary nobles.
"And I am still in great health, and I can still be a grand duke for at least twenty years." Grand Duke Vaurit said half-jokingly, "Your mother left her parents and brothers, willfully married Vaurrit, watching her father age year after year, her brother was sick, and she inevitably blamed herself in her heart.
Natasha fell silent, her hands clenched into fists at some point, and finally nodded slowly: "Okay."
Philibel said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Your Highness, the Church knows that the type you like is different from ordinary girls, so it helped you to reject the requirement that you must marry, but the descendants cannot be left behind, I believe this is the ardent hope of the Grand Duke and the nobles of the two countries. At that time, you can consider letting an angel come directly into you and give birth to the Holy Womb, which is the glory that only devout believers can have."
Sald pushed the matter of Alto to Lucian, saying that Lucian used Princess Natasha to comfort the Grand Duke's mood and used her, so the church understood that Natasha's sexuality had not changed, and the Grand Duke later learned more or less.
Natasha's thick eyelashes hung down, covering the change in mood, and whispered, "I will work hard."
What she thought in her heart was: "Is what Lucian said about asexual conception true? Uh, the one that borrowed him directly?"
In order to prevent Natasha from being chased by himself, she couldn't bear the pressure and casually found a nobleman to marry in order to give birth to an heir.
After getting Natasha's answer, Philippe Bell said kindly: "I won't disturb Her Highness the Princess and say goodbye to the announcement, in order to ensure your safety and convenience, it is best to choose a small knight group to follow.
The regular knights are composed of 100 to 500 knights of all ranks, ten times as many knights and more soldiers because of their different roles, and the medium knights, which are the general family knights of the great nobility, have about 30 knights, and the ratio of knight attendants and soldiers is often very large, while the small knights are the crown prince, the heir to the principality, consisting of one heavenly knight, three great knights and six knights, one hundred attendants, and five hundred soldiers. However, the small knights in Philippe's mouth obviously only included official knights and their families.
After saying that, he took his leave and left, and the Grand Duke smiled and said to Natasha: "I just said that I can still be a Grand Duke for twenty years, but you can't make me wait too long, I hope to see my grandson as soon as possible and see the future of the Violet family."
"I will work hard." Natasha thought wildly, Lucian, your "technology" must not be a problem.
The Grand Duke looked at Natasha with a smile and said: "I hope you go to the Kingdom of Holm, not only to make up for your mother's regrets, but also because he is there, you don't have to be separated anymore, so you have to hurry up about your grandson."
"Father, what are you talking about? Who is he?" Natasha pretended to be dazed and ignorant in embarrassment, why did her father misunderstand this?
The Grand Duke laughed and said: "Who else can there be? Lucian Evans, although you were a couple in disguise a few years ago, my intuition tells me that you are not fake now, I am very happy, very happy."
Father, are you thinking too much...... Natasha scolded, but parting was imminent, she couldn't bear to poke the Grand Duke's good feelings, so she didn't explain, and at the same time, she made up her mind to use Lucian's bloodline to create people.
"Don't think I don't know, who have you been communicating for more than an hour a day in recent years? Who is the one who touches the communication earrings and smirks from time to time?" Grand Duke Valrit suddenly felt that her daughter was not as emotionally sensitive as she herself claimed.
Natasha laughed dryly: "We are good friends, I didn't think about hiding it from you, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to know at all."
"Okay, okay, go and choose your small knights, Camille will follow you to Holm." Grand Duke Valire decided to tell Camille to find an opportunity to "remind" Natasha.
Natasha nodded: "Okay, when I arrive in Holm, I will often communicate with you, father."
She began to think in her heart: "Take John's family and give Lucian a surprise......"
…………
Inside the Radiant Cathedral, the teleportation array opened, and the holy light shone.
This teleportation array is used to provide reinforcements when the Magic Council attacks with all its might, and is one of the largest, capable of teleporting fifty knights at a time, even with the financial resources of the Southern Church, it can only be deployed in five places: the holy city of Reims, Antifleur, Aalto, Rentat, and Heim, the capital of the northern province of the Holy Helz Empire.
In the milky white light, Natasha, Camille, the Nine Knights, and their wives, children, parents, etc., a total of more than 40 people appeared in the teleportation array, and Joel and other ordinary people looked dizzy and retched.
Among these nine knights, only the third-level great knight John brought his parents and younger brother and other complete families, and the other knights felt that they could return to Alto in a year, so there was no need to be so troublesome, so they only brought their wives and children.
"John, why can't you leave your parents wherever you go? Haven't you grown up yet?" Another great knight, Finger, joked, he was John's friend, knowing that John had a gentle and firm personality, not the kind of person who was cautious, and a few words would not make him angry.
After John got over the dizziness, he was busy taking care of Joel, Alyssa and Evan, and smiled when he heard this: "It's a rare opportunity to go to a foreign country, you should always bring your parents and brother to see different scenery, and isn't it true that Her Royal Highness the princess has informed you that you must bring all the family members?"
"No, did you hear it wrong?" Finger looked at Natasha who was sorting out her clothes in front of her in confusion.
At this time, the female officials from Nexer Palace rushed in, trimmed Natasha's hair, eyebrows and other parts, and at the same time put on a cloak embroidered with the Hoffenberg family coat of arms in addition to the milky white armor, which was a fuchsia coat of arms wrapped in cloud-like stripes, with a sacred crown in the center, flanked by a golden scepter and a blue long sword.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, please take the knights to Nexer Palace, and then ride back to the Cathedral of the Radiant along the marked route, where you will be crowned king." The Speaker of the House of Lords, Rex, saluted respectfully.
Natasha said majesomously: "Please let the Duke of Frenburg lead the way."
John and the other knights hurriedly settled their families, guarded behind Natasha in a straight and neat manner, and left the Radiant Cathedral with her to the Nexer Palace in the noble quarter.
It was late at night after the rainstorm had stopped, and it was humid and dark.
"Start!" Rex, who was leading the way in front, waved his arm.
A knight raised his horn and blew it hard.
Toot!
Amid the sound of the horn, John and the other four knights rode out first, and then, the heroic Natasha sat on her back and followed behind.
Toot!
The magic crystal lights of the villas turned on, and the street lights all lit up, one by one like stars in the sky welcoming the new king.
"This is ......" John and the others had never seen such a scene of a galaxy hanging upside down, and they were quite shocked for a while.
Toot!
In the ordinary houses on both sides of the street, countless candles were lit, and a pair of eyes worshipped their new lord from the windows and through the cracks in the doors.
Natasha suddenly became a little nervous, because she needed to receive the crown under the light of the holy light during the coronation ceremony, could her faith pass the test?
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt something in her heart, tilted her head slightly, and saw a black-haired man standing behind a certain window, his handsome face and iconic monocle were so familiar and kind.
As soon as she saw Lucian, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, and her heart settled down, even the pursuit of the legendary powerhouse could be blocked, what was she afraid of?
Do you have no compassion, no loyalty, and no courage in your heart?
So, Natasha continued to hold her head high, her stunning appearance and heroic demeanor left a very deep impression on the nobles and citizens of the Holm Kingdom.
Walking through the streets and alleys, Natasha and the honor guard arrived at the Cathedral of Radiance, just as it was dark, and the first rays of light of the morning shone on her.
Dismounting and stepping on the steps, Natasha calmly walked into the hall amidst the salute of ordinary nobles on both sides, walked up to Cardinal Salde and knelt down on one knee before the Holy Cross.
After some questions and answers, she stood facing all the nobles, pressed her left hand on the "Holy Scriptures", raised her right hand, and pointed three fingers to the sky:
"I, Natasha Waorit, declare solemnly and reverently before the Lord:"
"I am a devout believer in the Truth Religion, and I will strictly follow the Holy Scriptures and the Code of the Kingdom of Holm, defend them with my own life, and always be ready to fight for the glory of the Lord and the interests of the Kingdom of Holm until death!"
Sald stood in front of Natasha with a scripture, a soft light shining from her, checking her faith.
Natasha was in a state of peace and tranquility, torturing her actions in the light to see if she had violated the knightly oath she had taken.
Sald smiled kindly: "You are a devout and steadfast believer, you are a brave and tenacious knight, and you are qualified to be the king of the Holm Kingdom."
Saying that, he picked up the golden crown placed on the red velvet next to him and put it on Natasha's slightly buried head:
"I declare that, by the grace of the Lord, Natasha Owit has become the Queen of the Kingdom of Holm and its territories and possessions, the protector of the faith, the Countess of Violet, the lord of the Bilbis Islands, the lord of the Soraho and the Baltimores, the Grand Duchess of Emden, the most glorious lord of the Knights of the Sword of Truth, the most glorious lord of the Knights of the Order of Judgment, the oldest and most honorable lord of the Holy Cross."
Natasha looked up wearing a crown inlaid with many gems, symbolically took the sacred and bright "Sword of Truth", and lifted it high with the help of divine magic, making it shine sharply.
Duke Rex, Duke Sorenfinn, Duke James, Duke Russell and other nobles all knelt down on one knee:
"See my king!"
It was nearly 4,000 words again, asking for a monthly pass.
PS: The Bilbis Islands, Solahore, Baltimores, and Emden are the colonies of the Kingdom of Holm in Xeno Space.
