Chapter 160: Pray to the Lionheart
Moon didn't know how he sent Trapolis away.

Just as he had no idea how Adela got in.

"Dear King of Sword and Shield and Goddess Ansha, I come here on behalf of my mother and father to present gifts to your majesties!"

It was not until Adela's voice sounded that Moon came back to his senses.

Looking at Adela kneeling in the audience, Moon managed to pull himself together and said:
"I heard that you went back to the Pure White Dynasty again, so how are you doing?"

Adela, knowing what Moon meant, smiled bitterly.

This is not something that can be answered directly.

If it weren't for his own actions, Emperor Loiman might not have lost.

Although it was my father's idea, I was the one who did it.
I'm obviously doing this for my mother, so why am I the one who suffers the most?

The only thing Adela could be thankful for in this matter was that her father seemed different from before.

So in response to Moen's question, Adela, who was kneeling on one knee, said:
"I am fine, Your Majesty."

"That's good."

Adela continued:
"My mother hopes that our friendship will not be affected in any way."

"At the same time, the gift my mother prepared for your coronation is that the White Dynasty will cancel all tariffs on Baratheon from today onwards!"

Adela opened the small box she was holding, and inside was an oracle.

Even for a dynasty, this was a huge concession.

After all, the object of concession is another dynasty, and it is a dynasty that is bound to expand wildly.

Anyone who knows a little about finance knows how huge a concession this is.

However, Ansha did not answer this question. She just looked at Moon.

And Moon said directly:
"Again, thank your father for me. And please allow me to appreciate your mother's kindness. Baratheon will not impose additional tariffs on the White Dynasty, but there will be no reductions either."

Moon's meaning was very clear. I would not accept your mother's favor, but I also did not intend to further deteriorate our relationship.

I will remember this, but I will not take it seriously for the sake of your king.

But the future path depends on you.

However, we may not be enemies, but we will definitely not be friends.

Adela was mentally prepared for this.

And this is probably all his mother wanted.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty the Sword and Shield King. Please allow me to take my leave!"

After bowing again, Adela wanted to leave.

But Moen stopped him again and said:

"and many more!"

"His Majesty?"

"Sealed Artifact 1-666, I'm very interested in that. If possible, I want to trade it."

Which first-level sealed object?

Adela's eyes lit up immediately and said:

"Your Majesty, I can give it directly to you as a gift on behalf of my mother, hoping to make up for the gifts we lack."

"That's fine, but if you want to trade, I'd love to."

According to the descriptions of those nobles and Moon's own understanding of the first-level seal.

That sealed object is definitely not a top-level item like the Predestined Death.

It should be a condensation of the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 2 or even Sequence 3.

In this case, it could be a one-off product, or it could at best help Moon return to Sequence Two.

But it is no exaggeration to say that Sequence 2 is equivalent to nothing to Moon's predicament.

And if it was a one-time product, it wasn't worth it for Moon to take a chance.

As for pretending to be nice, Moon had no intention of doing so.

Some things are stupid, but there have to be stupid people to do them. Otherwise, if everyone does beautiful things, the world will be doomed.

Moreover, it is not like there are no other alternatives.

It's not unique. Adela shook her head with a hint of regret and said:
"My mother said that she really liked this seal and asked me to bring it back."

"It seems that this is the end of it."

Prince Adela bowed slightly and then backed away.

Before leaving, Adela looked at Moon and the goddess with complicated eyes.

Just a few days ago, his identity was hanging over their heads.

But now, even if he died in Baratheon, his mother might not necessarily fight a bloody battle with Baratheon for him.

No wonder Trajan always looked down on himself.

He really has long regarded himself as a king.

But why was he so sure he would win?
Before leaving completely, Adela looked at Moon strangely and left thoughtfully.

Watching Adela leave.

Moon was a little sad because this was the person who made him feel most relaxed on that list.

As for the rest, we must deal with them as carefully as we did with Trapolis.

And the next person to arrive, if I remember correctly, is
The two knights entered the room respectfully and solemnly under the protection of the royal knights.

When they arrived before the throne of Morn and the goddess, the knights Agguiwen and Tristan both knelt on one knee and saluted:
"We are visiting on behalf of His Majesty the Lionheart."

The opening was one that made Moen a little uneasy.

And why only Lionheart?

"Lionheart?"

It was Ansha who spoke on behalf of Moen.

King Lionheart has been dead for many years. Why is it representing King Lionheart instead of the Storm Goddess who is still alive?

Regarding the inquiry of Goddess Ansha.

Agguiwen smiled bitterly:
"Respected Goddess Ansha, ever since His Majesty the Lionheart left us, Her Majesty the Goddess has sealed herself off and abandoned herself at the bottom of the Storm Sea."

"We have long since lost the ability to receive the oracle of the goddess, so we can only follow the last wishes of His Majesty the Lionheart King and come to see Your Majesties in the name of His Majesty the Lionheart King."

The Storm Goddess had long lost her king.

So she exiled herself to the deep sea.

Before the Lionheart left, he ordered the Knights of the Round Table, who were personally selected and organized by him, to defend his lover, country and people forever.

And to this day, the round tables still follow the will of the king.

However, the Round Table no longer has its original glory.

Because the Round Table lost its two most important owners at the same time - the goddess and the king.

Agguiwen's bitter smile deeply hurt Moon.

For a moment, Moon even wanted to stand up.

But Moon held back.

He couldn't stand up, at least not as another king.

After swallowing countless bitterness, Moen asked with a slightly heavy heart:
"Does it really mean that even you don't know about Goddess Denise's current situation?"

The two knights shook their heads and said:

"We can only confirm that Her Majesty the Goddess is still alive."

"That's it"

In the king's silence, the two knights presented their gifts.

After saluting, he backed away silently.

But before they really left, they both saw an extremely unexpected scene.

The Sword and Shield King, this noble man suddenly stood up and said to them:

"If there comes a day when you need someone to answer your prayers and the goddess remains silent, try praying to the Lionheart."

Amidst everyone's silence, confusion and surprise, Moon said seriously:
"Please believe me, because he will definitely respond!"
