Luna soon chose a dress for herself. It was a Red Colored Dress that appeared extremely beautiful on her.
This dress's name was Red Phoenix Dress. It absorbed the user's Ardor and converted it to Flame Ardor.
Once the user had mastered how to use this dress, she could actually use two kinds of elements.
For Luna, this was a significant boost as she possessed Wind Element. If she could master the Flame Element that was created through this dress, she could significantly boost it with her wind element.
Her firepower would be significantly magnified.
She was certain that once she got the hang of this outfit, she'd be able to easily surpass Aria. As a result, she was in a great mood after selecting this garment..
Naturally, she remained oblivious to the fact that Noah had chosen a special weapon for Aria.
It wouldn't be as simple for her to defeat her as Luna imagined.
Anyway, the two returned to their respective rooms. A while later, Noah was called in the Great Hall again.
He went to the Great Hall wearing the same clothes as earlier.
The King was slightly surprised as he thought that Noah had changed his clothes and chosen the ones from the Royal Clothing Store.
He planned to question his subordinate about it later. The King wanted to know just what Noah had chosen.
"In the next couple of days, you will be granted the title 'General.' After possessing this title, you can join any battlefield of the Glerian Kingdom. On most occasions, you can make independent decisions without my consent. However, this doesn't include initiating a battle against any Foreign Kingdom. For that, you need to inform the Kingdom about it first. Only if we agree can you launch an attack at them," The King spoke solemnly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWell, he indeed had to be serious about this. He couldn't just have Noah initiate battles against the foreign kingdoms like a crazy man.
That would sooner or later bring an end to the kingdom.
"In the next couple of days, you will be given a Spatial Pouch with the 100 Million Spirit Coins. Also, you can mention the location where you want your villa and the mansion," The King spoke.
Noah nodded solemnly and then returned to his room.
The other ministers couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
They felt uncomfortable every time Noah stepped into the Great Hall and stared at them. The combination of his presence and the King's aura made the atmosphere too heavy and intimidating for them to breathe.
Noah remained in the capital for the next couple of days.
During these days, the Heavenly Dragon Battleground's Tournament had officially ended.
Karsten Wenzel, the Red Crown Sect's representative, had come second, while the Stony Rock Sect's representative had come third.
Casten Tarr was gritting his teeth in anger as he cursed Noah in his heart. If not for Noah, he would have been the winner of this tournament.
And if not the winner, then at least entering the final three would have been very much possible.
Unfortunately, he lost two of his comrades in that battle against Noah. Karsten Wenzel and the Stony Rock Sect's faction leader continued their alliance and easily defeated Casten Wenzel.
Casten Tarr didn't know how he could show his face to the Fourth Prince. He remembered boasting to the Fourth Prince how no one in this tournament could defeat him. There were a few more statements similar to this one.
Once all formalities were done, Noah decided to leave the capital. He was returning to Veninza City.
During these days, Noah's subordinates enjoyed their fill as they were provided with exquisite food, great facilities, and maids who took care of their sexual needs.
Many men in Noah's faction had restrained their lust during their time in the Cranian Forest. This lust erupted when those maids stripped ahead of them.
Thus, the nightly battles began every single day. Each warrior was allocated a maid who would look after their needs, including their sexual desires.
These men had no idea that the King had planted these ladies. The King was well aware of how volatile a man's emotions could be.
If a woman looked after a guy every day, there was a good possibility that feelings would develop between them.
Once this connection was strong, there was a strong chance that many of them would bring these maids with them.
Thus, the King had lowered their price for freedom so that these men could buy these maids' freedom and take them along.
However, Noah or his group didn't know that these women would act as eyes and ears for the King. He wanted to check Noah's background in detail and gauge whether he was a threat to the Kingdom or not.
Naturally, his other sources were checking up on Noah's background, but until now, they found nothing.
Thus, the king decided to plant some spies within Noah's faction.
After a couple of weeks, Noah returned to Veninza City. He had informed Azaroth of the exact timing when he would arrive.
Azaroth had arrived at the location and was waiting for Noah.
When Noah spotted Azaroth, he went forward and kneeled in front of him. Azaroth nodded in affirmation while speaking, "You can stand up."
Azaroth then focused on Noah's group. Just as Noah had mentioned, it had grown very large.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeanwhile, Luna and Aria were utterly startled to see Noah kneel in front of Azaroth. They had gotten used to his overbearingly intimidating aura.
Yet here he was kneeling in front of another individual. They became very curious about Azaroth's identity.
"You have done a good job, Noah. It's time for you to take some rest," Azaroth informed Noah.
Noah was overjoyed by the compliment and felt like dancing. He immediately followed Azaroth's orders and went to sleep in the cabin nearby.
Azaroth soon stepped forwards and gazed at Noah's subordinates.
The original group of Noah's subordinates who had gone to the Heavenly Dragon Battleground's Tournament from Veninza City recognized Azaroth.
They all stepped forwards and kneeled in front of him while collectively speaking, "We greet the Great Master Azaroth."
Azaroth nodded slightly as he acknowledged their greeting before analyzing the other warriors.
"So, you are Aria and Luna, huh?" Azaroth inquired with a curious look in his eyes.
Aria nodded in affirmation while Luna spoke out, "Y-yes."
She was a little nervous since Noah had just kneeled in front of this man. Also, her instincts told her that this man was much more terrifying than Noah.
Azaroth noticed their uncomfortable looks and soon smiled, "You don't need to be scared too much. I won't eat you alive."
Those words relieved all the new warriors who had joined up Noah's group.
Soon, Azaroth added, "I can't say the same about traitors, though."
Nearly 80 individuals gulped down a mouthful of saliva at this moment. They were nervous and thought that Azaroth was talking about them.
Out of these 80 individuals, 74 of them were the King's maids, while the rest of the six were the warriors from Noah's group who had willingly become the king's spies.
Azaroth didn't miss a single warrior as he gazed at them with his Mystic Eyes of Perception.
The smile on his face widened as he spoke out, "Traitors never have a good ending. You don't believe me? Fine, I will demonstrate it to you."
