Le Cheng never expected that in this world, not only is King Arthur a woman, but even Arthur’s Chief Knight, Lancelot, has transford into a woman. Moreover, it is said that Lancelot is not purely human but the last descendant of dragons, possessing the bloodline of the Dragon Clan.
Of course, whether this legend is true remains to be verified, but it is certain that this world once had dragons.
Like most Western fantasy stories, there must be nurous races such as the Dragon Clan, Elves, Dwarves, Beastn, and humans. There will also be a tyrant that makes the entire world tremble, causing the disparate and even hostile races to set aside their past grievances and unite against the tyrant for the sake of world peace.
In the past, the role of this tyrant was played by a creature calling itself the Dark King, a Black Demon Dragon.
After a series of ssy moves by the Dark King, the various races were forced to unite on the sa front. Even so of the Dragon Clan could not tolerate his actions and turned against him. Eventually, this tyrant, who attempted to overturn the entire world, was unsurprisingly overturned by the world itself.
The once mighty Dragon Clan also withered away completely because of this war. Until 500 years ago, when the last Red Dragon died, no one has seen a dragon in this world ever since.
Now, in the Empire’s museum, one can see the specin of that Red Dragon.
At noon, Le Cheng specifically went to the museum to see it, and indeed it was a very magnificent dragon. Moreover... who knows what was the mindset of the specin maker, they even crafted the reproductive organ of the Red Dragon, which looks quite impressive.
At that ti, Le Cheng felt so regret, pity that the Dragon Clan had been wiped out a thousand years ago, otherwise, he would have had the chance to see the legendary Dragon Girl.
Unexpectedly, Lancelot would be connected to the Dragon Clan. Although it’s more likely to be rely a rumor, it also sparked his interest.
That afternoon, Le Cheng was idly amusing Guinevere, when suddenly, Anna hurriedly ran over.
"Divine Envoy, the Queen requests your presence in the main hall for a eting."
"Now?"
"Yes, right now." Anna had a rushed and excited expression. "Today at noon, the Queen had summoned the Knights and ministers to the Royal Court and publicly announced your identity. Everyone was shocked and eager to et you, the legendary Divine Envoy."
"Miss Anna, can I, can I go too?" Guinevere said, eager to try.
"Uh, this..."
"What are you going for? Wait until you beco the Queen. Anna, let’s go."
Le Cheng smiled and patted Guinevere’s head, then beckoned to Anna.
Anna gave Guinevere a dismissive smile and followed Le Cheng out the door.
Monts later, under Anna’s guidance, Le Cheng arrived at the council hall.
Most of the ti, the council hall is not really open because whether it’s Knights or ministers, they don’t have that much ti to co here and blabber. If they were to run to the council hall every day and talk nonsense, the whole Empire wouldn’t function properly.
However, today, the doors of the council hall were wide open. As soon as Le Cheng arrived at the entrance, he saw a long table inside, with Queen Morgan sitting across it, flanked by the Empire’s civil ministers and military generals.
"Queen, the Divine Envoy has arrived."
Anna stood at the door and spoke respectfully. In an instant, more than twenty pairs of eyes shot towards Le Cheng.
On the way here, Le Cheng had already asked Anna who was present.
On the left were the Forbidden Army Knights led by Lancelot, twelve Knights, all famous in the Empire for their military prowess, representing the Empire’s supre military force. On the right were the Empire’s civil ministerial group led by the Pri Minister, also twelve people. Though less renowned, the prosperity of the Empire today cannot be separated from their governance.
Morgan, as the Queen and Regent King, can’t cover the sky with one hand. She wanted to appoint Le Cheng as the Divine Envoy of the Empire to spread the sacred na of Gaia and also needed the approval of these twenty civil and military officials.
As these people sized up Le Cheng, he was also observing them. To his surprise, he discovered that not all of these twenty-four top leaders of the Empire were human; about one third were from alien races, including Elves, Dwarves, Werewolves, and even...
"Holy shit! Panda!"
When Le Cheng’s gaze fell upon a certain figure seated to the left, even he widened his eyes and blurted out subconsciously.
At the fifth seat of the knight’s row, there sat a round and fluffy figure, with black and white coloring, two short, round black ears, and a pair of classic dark circles around the eyes. This appearance and coloring... it seed sowhat similar to a certain national treasure, the panda; in fact, it was exactly the sa.
Le Cheng never imagined that he would encounter a giant panda in this foreign Otherworld.
As soon as Le Cheng spoke, the originally serious and solemn eting beca unorthodox in no ti.
"P...Panda? Are you referring to ?" the Panda Man, whom Le Cheng was staring at, pointed at himself bewilderedly.
Le Cheng walked forward, examining him closely.
Normally, Le Cheng’s behavior would be sowhat impolite, especially in such a setting, and highly inappropriate, but since Le Cheng is a Divine Envoy, everyone subconsciously overlooked it, and they were also curious why the Panda Man’s knight from the Bear-man Clan was referred to as a... cat?
A panda should be a type of cat, right?
The Panda Man, feeling a bit embarrassed under Le Cheng’s scrutiny, scratched his head and stood up to introduce himself: "Divine Envoy, greetings. I am Caesar from the Bear-man Clan, currently the captain of the fifth group of the Emperor’s Forbidden Army Knight Order. You just called a panda, does this an... there are mbers of my clan in your world as well?"
This chap looked quite portly, but upon standing, he was over two ters tall, making Le Cheng look like a small child in front of him.
However, Le Cheng wasn’t the least bit intimidated; he smiled and said, "I’m not sure if they’re your clan mbers, but there are indeed those who look a lot like you in my world. You just ntioned you’re from the Bear-man Clan, do all the bear-n in this world have black and white coloring like you?"
"That’s not the case." Although the Panda Man, Caesar, was tall and imposing, he had a simple and honest look as he shook his head, "Most of the Bear-man Clan are black or brown-haired; it is very rare to have black and white like . Only my lineage has this coloring. According to my grandfather, our ancestors ca from the Eastern Continent, maybe the Bear-man Clan there all look like this."
"I see, so you’re almost like a fellow countryman of mine. Not bad, quite sturdy."
Le Cheng smiled as he patted the Panda Man’s arm.
The Panda Man gave a simple, honest smile and scratched his head again.
Seeing the two already engaged in conversation, Morgan, who had intended to provide introductions, swallowed his words and took the chance to say: "This is the Divine Envoy Le Cheng from the outside world; please get to know each other for the ti being."
As soon as Morgan finished speaking, a Werewolf stood up with a grin: "I am Octavian, a warrior from the Werewolf Clan, currently the Sixth Knight of the Emperor’s Forbidden Army. It’s a great honor to et the Divine Envoy from the outside world, awoo!"
He even howled excitedly, seeming truly thrilled.
Next, the only female knight present stood up. With a pair of pointed ears and wheat-colored skin, she introduced herself: "Hello Divine Envoy, I am a Dark Night Elf nad Cleopatra, honored by the Queen and currently residing as the ninth seat of the Emperor’s Forbidden Army Knight."
Le Cheng was stunned, Cleopatra, the Egyptian queen?
Then another voice ca from Le Cheng’s left, this ti a human man who laughed and said: "Forbidden Army Knight, the fourth knight, Ramses, greeting the Divine Envoy."
Ramses?
Le Cheng asked subconsciously, "Which generation are you?"
"Haha, I didn’t expect the Divine Envoy to know this as well, yes, I am the second generation, and my father, Ramses I, was the Chief Knight of the Empire."
Le Cheng didn’t know what to say for a mont, and joked: "You don’t happen to have soone nad Napoleon among you, do you?"
"Hmm?" The Dwarf with a big beard seated at the tenth seat raised his head in surprise and looked at Le Cheng, "Divine Envoy sir, how did you know my na is Napoleon?"
Le Cheng: "..."
Caesar, Octavian, the Egyptian beauty, Ramses II, and now a Napoleon... Well, this isn’t a knight’s council, this is literally a gathering of kings!
He couldn’t help but mutter, "I’d be really upset if there wasn’t a Gilgash here."
The next mont, a small old man from the civil ministers’ row stroked his beard, smiling genially and said: "Divine Envoy sir, perceptive as always. I am indeed Gilgash, presently the Vice Minister of the Empire."
