Chapter 197: Chapter 130 Yatun Royal Family (Requesting Recommendation Tickets) _2
And surrounding Baiying Yin were no longer the sunglass-wearing dogs, but instead, cranes holding umbrella swords.
Although Bailuo had held a kingdom establishment ceremony before, the actual crowning ceremony had yet to be implemented.
This was the perfect opportunity to complete the kingly appearance.
“Finally, the moment has arrived…”
Watching the crown draw ever nearer, Elder Mountain Grandpa took a deep breath, but just then, Uncle stepped forward and took it.
Elder Mountain Grandpa: Holy shit!!!!
“Here, in the name of Saros, I crown Your Majesty.”
Seeing the two elders unwilling to yield to each other, Bailuo smiled knowingly; he never did consider this a serious ceremony.
How could a wedding be solemn?
Radiant with joy, laughter and merriment abounded; this was what a wedding should be.
“I will not let you down.”
Bailuo solemnly responded to Uncle, then he donned the magnificent crown forged by the combined efforts of Avalon, the Tree Elves, and Fairy Power.
On the other side, while Uncle wasn’t paying attention, Elder Mountain Grandpa had already placed a crown on Isefia.
Elder Mountain Grandpa: You bastard, no respect for the martial virtues!
Uncle: Do you trust me? You actually trust me? Are you that naive?
“Ahem, ahem.”
Bailuo was speechless at the two old mischief-makers, reaching out to his senior sister beside him and then standing up with her hand in his.
“Today is the most joyous day for our Yatun.”
“All who are here, without exception, are my family, my citizens.”
“There is no need to be reserved, drink to your heart’s content, and enjoy the delicious food,” Bailuo said, “and those who wish to toast to me are more than welcome to come forward.”
At these words, the crowd immediately became eager to try.
“Wait, wait.”
Bailuo raised his hand to signal: “I haven’t finished yet, let me finish, let me get my words out.”
“Hahaha…”
In front of the People of Yatun, Bailuo was incredibly easygoing, and even a joke at his expense was taken in stride.
Like the Little Monkey who threw stones at Bailuo previously, who after some scuffling, became one of Yatun Castle’s own.
Looking at Hailbo and Ina, they clenched their glasses nervously; their minds fixated on Bailuo’s words “family and citizens.”
‘Us, are we included too?’
‘Does His Majesty also consider us as family?’
“Oh right.”
Bailuo remembered something, and he looked at Ina, Hailbo, and Silly Tiger: “After half a month, over twenty days of observation, we in Yatun have welcomed three new friends.”
“Ina.”
Bailuo gestured for the girl to step forward: “And Hailbo, as well as Silly Tiger.”
“Silly Tiger? Silly Tiger… Oh, Tagger, Tagger, I’m calling you.”
It took a moment for Silly Tiger to react to his nickname, but he now realized he had another name: Silly Tiger.
“Your Majesty, did you call me?”
Compared with Ina and Hailbo, who knelt on one knee right away, Silly Tiger not only didn’t kneel but also asked dumbfoundedly, “Isn’t my name Tagger, or am I still called Silly Tiger?”
“That’s a term of affection.”
After Bailuo clarified, Silly Tiger seemed to notice his two companions nearby.
He froze for a moment, then, as if toppling mountains and overturning seas, he fell to his knees.
“One knee, one knee is enough.”
“Oh, oh.”
Silly Tiger then switched his posture, eliciting a roar of laughter from everyone.
They weren’t mocking him; on the contrary, they found Silly Tiger’s innocence endearing and entertaining.
“Ina has quite a talent for curses.”
“Hailbo is also an excellent boy,” Bailuo said: “And according to Nors, you seem to have an interest in naval battles?”
“You, you know about that?”
Hailbo was surprised and delighted; he did not see himself as a warrior.
A soldier who doesn’t wish to be a general isn’t a good soldier.
Hailbo thought the same.
He was continually improving himself, so that one day, he could gain Bailuo’s respect.
“I have been paying attention to your efforts.”
“…”
Hailbo was excited, and so was Ina.
Silly Tiger, well, he didn’t quite understand, but being excited was definitely the right response!
Silly Tiger: Not understanding but getting excited, I’m a genius
“And now,” Bailuo continued, “I officially announce, I grant you the status of Yatun provisional citizens.”
Why provisional citizens?
Because Bailuo wanted them to participate in the upcoming war against Sigurian.
Bailuo didn’t need them to perform any heroic feats, just having experience on the battlefield was enough for Bailuo to promote them to become Yatun citizens and from then on, enjoy all the benefits Yatun had to offer.
“We definitely won’t let Your Majesty down!”
None of the three were afraid of the battlefield; Silly Tiger knew no fear, Ina would do anything for Bailuo, and as for Hailbo, who lived by the “no work, no food” creed, he couldn’t wait to take to the battlefield and make a name for himself.
“Next.”
Bailuo looked at the crowd: “Nors, step forward.”
“Present!”
“In the name of King Yatun, I appoint you as the vanguard general for this naval battle.”
This time, Bailuo was determined to command personally, but the overall commander of the armed forces wouldn’t be Bailuo, it would be his senior sister.
“Fiona, you’ll ride Silver Wing, commanding the air force.”
Yatun’s air force currently was led by Fiona and Liya, two Extraordinary warriors, along with 5 nearly Transcendent Dawn Guards, and 25 almost Extraordinary White Eagle Swordsmen.
Their strengths were improving rapidly, and if they continued to train during the voyage, stabilizing their Extraordinary and Transcendent powers by the time they faced Sig in battle should not be a problem.
Additionally, the air force consisted of a large number of the Feathered Tribe.
This group was quite substantial, comprising Ordinary and Extraordinary members.
There were no Transcendent ranks available, even if Cat Lingling and its kind were included, they were still at best the Extraordinary level.
Fortunately, the total number of High-ranking Feathered Tribe and flying High-ranking Fairies exceeded 50, plus more than 200 Ordinary Fairies, forming a not insignificant small-scale air force.
