Bernard had selfishly sacrificed his son's feelings all for the sake of his own ambitions.
Cedric was overwhelmed with emotion. Suddenly, he turned to Jared and knelt down! After all, Cedric was a noble prince. It was inconceivable for him to kneel before someone so easily! However, at that moment, Cedric knelt down before Jared! He didn't kneel down because Jared had saved his life. To him, his own life didn't matter! The reason he knelt before Jared was because Jared had facilitated his union, enabling him to be with the woman he loved.
"Prince Cedric, you mustn't...” Upon seeing the situation, Jared quickly rushed forward to help Cedric up.
Everyone around was filled with immense envy when they saw Cedric kneeling before Jared. If Jared made a small request at that moment, there was no doubt that Bernard would agree without hesitation! In the future, he was destined to be an honored guest of Allardland too.

Whenever you choose to visit Allardland, you are free to cand go from the palace as you please." Once Bernard finished speaking, he presented Jared with a dazzling golden token.
When everyone saw the token, they were green with envy. Possessing such a token meant that Jared could freely move in and out of Allardland. Besides, it meant that he had immense power! However, Jared did not immediately reach for the token. This was because what Jared truly desired was not the token, but the immortal's bone.
What if I take the token and they decide not to givethe immortal's bone? Bernard saw through Jared's apprehensions and chuckled. "Young lad, hold onto this token. The reward listed on the Doctor-Searching List will still be yours. It's just that I don't have the immortal's bone withnow. I'll have to fetch it for you!" Upon hearing Bernard's words, Jared awkwardly chuckled as he accepted the token.
"I have faith in Your Majesty's character!" Jared said with a laugh.
"Young lad, I'm still unaware of who you are. Do you mind lettingknow?" Bernard asked.
"My nis Jared Chance..." Jared revealed his own name.
"Jared Chance?" Bernard was taken aback.
Many alchemists were taken aback too, as the nwas all too familiar to many! After all, many people were aware of the person who had a hundred-year offering bounty on his head by the Demon Seal Alliance.
"So, you're the sJared who is being hunted down by the Demon Seal Alliance with a hundred-year offering?" Bernard questioned.
"Your Majesty, how do you know about that?” Jared asked back, but this also meant admitting his own identity. Seeing Jared admit it, many had a greedy look in their eyes. How they wished they could rush up right then and there to apprehend Jared! The hundred-year offering from the Demon Seal Alliance was an unimaginable wealth of resources! Jared could also sense the greedy gazes amidst the crowd.

"I believe this matter has beccommon knowledge in the Ethereal Realm. How will possibly not know 1. about it? Yet, you had the audacity to publicly admit your own identity. That took sguts. Aren't you afraid?" Bernard was rather curious, wondering why Jared dared to reveal his own identity.
Among the many people present, quite a few were after the hundred-year offering from the Demon Seal Alliance.
"There's nothing to fear. Different situations call for different action." Jared appeared extremely composed.
"You've got spirit! Since you saved my son today, letpresent you with another gift!"
After finishing his statement, Bernard leapt up. Hovering mid-air, he looked down at everyone and declared m "Since everyone is here today, I want to announce publicly that Jared Chance will be under the protection of Allardland. From here on, Jared will be an honored guest of Allardland.
I don't care if you're from the Demon Seal Alliance or anyone else. If you dare lay a hand on Jared, don't blme for turning hostile! I advise you all not to lose your lives for the sake of an unreal hundred-year offering. If you're dead, no amount of resources will be of any use!" After he finished speaking, Bernard slowly descended.
