"I will make Isabella my queen, my one and only queen. No matter how many girls I marry in the future, none will surpass her status."
"More marriages? Aren’t you satisfied yet?"
Noah noticed the key point, truly unable to withhold his shock at the greed and desire of the young man before him.
"I will eventually be king, so welcoming more won, uniting more forces, and passing on my bloodline is my responsibility and duty, an obligation I cannot shirk."
Uranos said with a calm deanor.
"Tsk."
Noah uttered a sound and then fell into silence, pondering for a long ti before speaking again.
"When did this co up?"
"Huh?"
It was Uranos’ turn to show a confused expression because the question from the Golden Dragon in front of him was so vague that he had no idea how to answer it.
"Becoming king, when did you start having such thoughts?"
"It started a few years ago. I feel my birth ca with a mission."
"A mission to beco king? You think you were born to be king?"
At this mont, Noah felt a kind of joy. The years of cultivation and nurturing had finally yielded the sweet fruit he’d anticipated.
"Yes, I believe this land needs a true king, so I was born."
Uranos said seriously. If it were soone else saying such things, they would naturally be mocked, but at this mont, even Noah, as the Ancestor Dragon, wouldn’t scold his young nephew for having these thoughts.
Because he truly was very special, born with Titan Bloodline. At birth, he possessed a Heavenly Gifted Weapon, a weapon with imnse potential that could continuously evolve and might one day beco a Divine Artifact.
This little one, born with such advantages, claiming to be destined for kingship was indeed not incorrect, because if he was willing, he really could beco the king who ruled the lands, he genuinely possessed such potential.
"What kind of king do you think is a true king?"
With his nephew having such thoughts, Noah was naturally extrely gratified. This proved that his private lessons were successful, and not just ordinarily successful.
The Augustus family, after three generations, finally had a man who aspired to be king, which, how could it not fill Noah with joy, since he’d been waiting for such a long ti.
"The will of the king is the will of the nation. When a monarch makes a decision, the entire nation operates around his will, with no voices of opposition or resistance. All subjects will execute his orders."
Uranos pondered for a mont before slowly answering.
"A kingdom ruled by one man’s heart, that would be a tyrant!"
Although Noah warned, his voice and expression were filled with joy.
"That is still better than a diocre and incompetent puppet ruler."
"Who are you referring to?"
"Of course, the worthless one with the false king’s na."
Young Dou Ding’s face showed disdain and contempt, and as he gradually grew up and gained sufficient understanding of the outside world, his perspective and thoughts on the world changed, and he developed desires that neither his parents nor grandparents had ever possessed,
"What kind of monarch is he? What right does he have to match the mandate of a king? He can’t even decide his own fate? Even for slightly important appointnts and removals, he must consult the old thief above his head."
"That’s the source of his power, of course, he must be respectful."
"So that’s why he’s a false king, and I intend to be a true king. Even a legend can only submit under my feet, rather than negotiate with ."
"A very ambitious goal, but even if you beco the true king you speak of, able to make legends in the kingdom submit and obey your commands, there will still exist others that force you to bow down."
"Who?"
Uranos actually knew the answer.
"The Divine!"
"For them to intervene in the Material Realm, they must pay the price. The strongest force a divine can manifest in the Material Realm is the Saint Form. If I can beco a near-saint legend, I will not fear the divine."
Faced with eternal and immortal beings, Uranos had no intention of surrendering, offering his thought-out solution.
"If you are willing to worship a powerful divine power, even if only claiming so, you would gain unprecedented support and could also obtain the King’s Crown you desire."
"That is a false king! Such power cos from the divine, just a larger puppet, no different in essence from the waste in the Capital."
Uranos asked sowhat agitatedly.
"So, you don’t intend to worship any divine?"
"My father and mother did not worship any divine. As for my grandfather and grandmother, I think you understand them better than I do."
"Of course."
Casius, who can awaken the Titan Bloodline, cannot be a believer, let alone the Legendary Mage Selena, no mage who achieves extraordinary success worships divine beings.
"If that’s the case, what reason do I have to submit to the divine?"
"The path you’ve chosen is not an easy one!"
Noah shook his head. For a monarch aiming to rule all nations and beco a true king, which divine being could resist scheming, involving faith in the secular realm, the very foundation of their eternal immortality.
"Such a difficult and arduous road is challenging, isn’t it? Uncle Noah."
"It seems you have already made up your mind."
"I wonder if my answers have satisfied you."
"I am in a very good mood now."
The Golden Dragon did not hide his happiness, even though the child in front of him rely proposed his goal; however, as long as he was willing to think this way, it implied the potential to turn thoughts into reality—far worse, was not daring to even imagine, let alone attempt to do so.
"Since this is so, may I make a request of you?"
"Speak."
"Could you not speak with Elizabeth?"
Uranos hesitated for a mont before asking.
"Of course, but I won’t help you deliberately conceal. You need to make your arrangents, think about how to tell her."
Noah readily agreed but didn’t make any real guarantees.
Because, regardless of considerations, the old mage, upon returning, would definitely widely announce the successful alliance marriage with the Augustus family, which would undoubtedly beco a nationwide sensation.
Indeed, just as Noah anticipated, less than two days after the old mage’s departure, the news of the Augustus family’s direct heir and marriage to twenty-eight Royal Princesses shocked the nation.
This news was truly explosive and extrely eye-catching. Even the lowest of the commoners and idle adventurers talked about it eagerly.
Because even minstrels wouldn’t invent such a far-fetched storyline, yet it played out in reality, making the na of the Augustus family known even in the farthest northwestern border city of the kingdom, where commoners were well aware.
Of course, the most famous was Uranos, the protagonist of the alliance marriage. He beca the most enviable man in the entire kingdom because he married not just nearly 30 princesses but would also consequently gain legal control over nurous territories.
Though the commoners and adventurers only watched for amusent, the families possessing legends deciphered another aning: the Royal Family had once again ceded a large amount of interest to the Augustus family, seeking alliance and support to stabilize the Royal Family’s status.
With both major new and old powerful families having reached an agreent, other families naturally wouldn’t act rashly anymore, but still, so maliciously sighed,
"From just looking at the map, one might think the Augustus family is our Royal Family."
"Is there really much difference between the Augustus family and the forr Royal Family?"
"Of course, there is—they have never ceded even an inch of territory!"
