The combination of the two providences of the Blanc Kingdom and the Lionheart Kingdom created a rare phenomenon in the clear sky. Various citizens showed their amazed expressions. To them, the scene shown by the sky was no different from the golden scene that decorated most of the two kingdoms.
Various images of mysterious symbols could be seen in the skies of both kingdoms. Luckily, the symbols only lasted for less than half a minute before finally disappearing. With that, every phenomenon that occurred in the skies of the two kingdoms returned to its previous state.
The rulers from outside the four kingdoms noticed the changes between the Lionheart Kingdom and the Blanc Kingdom. Each of them was the ruler of their respective kingdom. However, the changes that occurred in the sky revealed something that had not happened in a hundred years.
The only phenomenon that occurred between the Lionheart Kingdom and the Blanc Kingdom was one that would never happen again in all of history. To be able to combine the providence of the two kingdoms is impossible for beings in the world. However, William's actions enabled him to defy the laws of the entire world.
The Lionheart Kingdom's sudden increase in providence attracted the attention of rulers from various powerful regions, such as one of the seven Great Kingdoms. Most rulers of every Great Kingdom were very wary of the changes in the Lionheart Kingdom. Since the beginning, the Lionheart Kingdom had been one of the strongest kingdoms on the Sun Continent.
But the nickname of the strongest for the Lionheart Kingdom had completely changed to that of a weak kingdom, even weaker than every lowly kingdom. Therefore, many of the Great Kingdoms did not care at all about the current fate of the Lionheart Kingdom.
Even though what they saw before was the past of the Lionheart Kingdom, for now, the rulers of every Great Kingdom were aware that the rise of the Lionheart Kingdom would happen sooner or later.
"Immediately order the Saintess to welcome the ruler of the Lionheart Kingdom. Give him a suitable gift as congratulations for successfully conquering the territory of the Blanc Kingdom." The figure of a man wearing a white robe was seen raising his hand and waving to the side. A woman in a maid's outfit appeared in front of the man. The maid's expression showed respect on her face.
As the maid of the ruler of one of the Great Kingdoms, she was one of the man's most trusted people. It was not because the man was afraid of trouble occurring. After all, the territory controlled by this man was one of the strongest among the seven Great Kingdoms.
"Understood. I will convey it to Saintess Aria immediately." With that, the maid's figure disappeared from the spot. But the man's expression did not show any change at all; he simply remained indifferent.
After the maid left, the man decided to lean his head against the throne behind him. For some reason, the memory of that man befriending an old friend came flooding back into his mind.
"Edmund's son, huh... he has developed. I think this is something worth visiting. I expected more from you, King William."
In a dark and quiet place, a man with dark skin was seen standing on the roof of the palace. His expression showed no emotion. On the contrary, his gaze was relentlessly cold.
Suddenly, the man's expression turned grim. It was filled with hatred and submission. A memory of his battle with the previous ruler of the Lionheart Kingdom came flooding back into his mind.
An evil laugh escaped from the man's mouth. With that, his eyes once again looked at the sky of the Lionheart Kingdom's territory. What the man saw was not something ordinary beings could see, but rather a web-like view connecting the providence between each region.
Most experts above the Great Circle stage could easily see the changes in relations between regions such as the Lionheart Kingdom and the Blanc Kingdom. Therefore, the man was not too worried about what William intended to do to the Blanc Kingdom.
A part of the man could not hold back his disgust as he remembered what happened after his fight against the previous king of the Lionheart Kingdom. A sigh involuntarily escaped his mouth. Even though the man hated the previous king, he still considered him worthy of respect.
"This is troublesome. Both father and son are the same. They will all be opponents of the Litch Kingdom. But that doesn't matter. No matter what, Edmund's son will never be able to defeat me!"
Every troop from the Lionheart Kingdom had its own duty. Moreover, Commander Leo had to carry out the task given to him by William. Monitoring every noble within the Blanc Kingdom was not an easy task.
Even though the nobles were willing to surrender and submit under the orders of the Lionheart Kingdom, their hearts and minds still regarded it as an evil kingdom. Therefore, Commander Leo realized that William wanted his troops to monitor any suspicious actions from the nobles.
Luckily, most of King Blanc's top officials had been completely killed by Commander Leo's troops. Even if a small number of them managed to escape, they would not be able to return to reclaim their positions.
The corruption in the Blanc Kingdom had been going on for a long time before King Blanc went to war against William. But that did not make Commander Leo and Zack care about the situation. For them, William's orders were absolute and had to be carried out.
William, who had previously been in his true form, returned to his usual form. Both of his feet landed on the ground. Likewise, Yelna had completely regained her composure after seeing William's form.
Yelna's legs subconsciously moved closer to William. At first, she wanted to ignore him, seeing that he was not in good condition, but she decided to help him and placed one of his arms over her shoulder.
"Yelna? What are you doing? I don't need your help. Besides, you better not come near me."
"Just shut up. If you die, I won't have a place to live. You must continue to live so that I can avenge my husband's death for what you did to him."
For some reason, a light chuckle escaped from William's mouth. Yelna's words made absolutely no sense to him. Even though she openly said she would kill him, she did not choose to attack him while he was weak.
That was also the reason why William felt a little respect toward Yelna. Even though she hated him and wanted to kill him, she still chose to help him just to ensure her own survival until the next day.
"You turned out to be cute too..."
"Thank you for your useless compliment."
"But I'm sorry. I can walk on my own right now. So don't put too much pressure on yourself just to help me." However, William did not accept Yelna's help. Instead, he rejected her offer.
Another side of Yelna felt displeased with William's dismissive attitude. Memories of him constantly refusing her help flooded her mind, and she could not stop herself from suddenly carrying him onto her back.
William showed a doubtful expression, but he did not resist. Instead, he allowed Yelna to do as she wished.
"Huh... just do whatever you want. I'll let you carry me since you're still not in your best condition." A faint memory of Yelna feeling pain in her hip surfaced in William's mind. However, he did not want to get involved in her problems. Even though it was partly his fault, he chose to ignore her tired expression.
As time passed, Yelna and William gradually moved farther toward the Lionheart Kingdom. Each step Yelna took while carrying William caused her body to ache under the burden she bore.
