The king silently watched him until Gu Qing Shan left and closed the door.
“It seems he’s normally a very good son” the king commented.
“No, father, he’s orphaned, both his parents have been gone since he was six. He’s been living alone ever since then until now” Anna said.
The king was a bit surprised.
Then he suddenly asked: “He’s your chosen consort?”
“That’s right, ever since the first time I met him I’ve always had my eyes on him” Anna stared straight into her father’s eyes and answered.
The king showed an expression of approval, saying: “Daughter, your eyes are quite sharp indeed”
“Anna, I had purposefully tried to test the man you were just with, because I found that he had Death’s relic on him”
“I gave it to him, then he gave it back to me, and I gave it to him again”
The king was a bit stunned, asking: “You said he gave it back to you?”
“Yes”
The king was trembling for a bit, then spoke in confusion: “Such a foolish person still exists?”
“He’s foolish like that”
The king sighed: “If it’s as you said, then your eyes aren’t just exceptionally sharp”
Then his expression became solemn: “Before I fully dissipate, there’s something I must tell you”
“The tradition and inheritance that our Medici clan has been silently protecting for over 700 years, I must tell you and you alone, to fulfill the Medici’s destiny”
“This inheritance, for the past few hundred years, aside from our founding ancestor, no one has been able to inherit it”
“Anna, you are the most talented daughter so far in the long history of our Medici clan, as well as its only remaining member, no matter if you could inherit it or not, do not blame yourself”
The king stared at his daughter, unwilling to look away.
He reached out wanting to rub her head, but then remembered that he couldn’t touch anything anymore.
His hand stopped mid-air.
Anna stepped forward, placing her head below his phantom hand.
“I don’t know what inheritance you’re talking about” she softly spoke.
“O’ gods in heaven, please be my witness” the king maintained a solemn expression and started to speak.
“Today, right here, I shall bestow the Medici clan’s lineage in the hands of my daughter Anna”
“From now forward, Anna is the new head of the Medici clan”
In the exhibition room, the king’s expression was solemn, his tone slow and sure, similar to scene depicted in the painting behind himself.
The young king was touching his young daughter’s head with one hand, while the other held a tiara that he was about to put on her.
On the other side of the wall.
As soon as Gu Qing Shan closed the door, he saw the Holy Apostle.
They met once before, at the checkpoint.
Holy Apostle Ivan, wearing a white robe specific to the Holy Judge, half-stripped to reveal his bulging chest and shoulders.
He stood silently at the end of the hallway, looking at Gu Qing Shan.
“You’re looking for me?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“I’ve been waiting for a while” Holy Apostle Ivan said.
“Tch, what a committed and dedicated employee you are” Gu Qing Shan said.
“Dedication is a joy in and of itself” Ivan showed a cruel expression on his face.
“What are you in so much of a hurry to find me for? Sparring?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Before that” Ivan said: “Following procedures, I have to tell you first, this area here doesn’t welcome guests”
The Holy Apostle flashed a smile ——–one of a predator that found its prey.
“Is that so? I might’ve gotten lost”
Gu Qing Shan fixed his collar, combed his hair back, conveniently changing his title to [You Ji General]
He started to quicken his steps, walking towards Ivan.
“If you don’t mind, please help bring me back to the ballroom” he said as he walked.
“I’ll be very honored to get you out of here” the Holy Apostle replied.
A milky white light gathered, forming a solemn and holy pattern, silently appeared beneath his feet.
The Holy Church’s Mystic-type God’s Chosen Skill, [Repentance]
Any damage dealt will be given back to the attacker two-fold.
Gu Qing Shan only needed to glance to understand.
“Then what are we waiting for, let’s go” he said.
“No, no, no, we still can’t leave just yet” Holy Apostle Ivan shook his head.
As they talked, the distance between them was closing more and more.
“Ah, I understand, my apologies”
Gu Qing Shan acted like he understood something and took out his wallet.
“I forgot everything in the Holy Empire requires a fee, fine fine ——-here’s your tip” he pulled out a wad of cash and waved it in his hand.
Holy Apostle Ivan’s face twisted in anger.
“The humiliation you gave; I will return over a hundred-fold” he shouted in a low voice.
“You don’t need money? Then what do you want me to do?” Gu Qing Shan showed an expression of confusion.
He’s already walked half the length of the hallway, but his steps didn’t slow down, still moving towards Ivan.
“My hearing is very different from a normal person ———-in that room you just came out of, I can still hear a heartbeat and breathing”
“And I believe that to be a woman” Holy Apostle Ivan smirked: “How about we wait just a bit more, let’s see who your little lover is”
Gu Qing Shan stopped for a bit, shaking his head: “As the host, you’re much too curious about your guest’s personal matters”
He frowned, then stared at the holy pattern below the Ivan’s feet.
Suddenly he sighed: “Truthfully said, I don’t want to fight you”
Ivan was a bit interested and asked: “Why not? You scared?”
Gu Qing Shan started to explain: “The Holy Church possesses many types of God’s Chosen Skill, quite a few are awakened by different people, but [Repentance] is such a rare God’s Chosen Skill that not many have it”
“This generation, I’m the only one” Ivan pridefully responded.
“That’s right, it’s very rare” Gu Qing Shan nodded in agreement and continued
“Tsk, tsk, standing in place while letting others attack as much as they like, ignoring even if your clothes are ripped and torn off, yet still begging them to keep attacking” he exclaimed, “there’s quite a few masochists in the world, but to take it as far as you do… I’ve got to say nobody can do the same”
Ivan was completely stunned as he listened to Gu Qing Shan, his body shaking in anger.
“I want- I want to kill you!” Ivan’s words were also trembling.
“Even though your service sucks, I still have to give you a tip” Gu Qing Shan threw the wad of cash at him.
The money fluttered, blocking Ivan’s view.
The distance between them at the moment is just enough.
A sword appeared from thin air.
The Earth Sword.
“A sword? Weak and puny”
Ivan brushed the money away and coldly laughed.
Thrusting the Earth Sword, Gu Qing Shan’s spirit energy circulated.
Ivan seemed to notice something, his expression instantly changed.
He very quickly dodged backward, wanting to avoid this attack.
But this attack was too quick, and he’s already reacting late, so he was unable to dodge at all.
The air around the sword tip was screaming.
Crak!
The communication device on Ivan’s body was singled out, dismantled in mid-air and fell down to the ground as scattered parts.
Gu Qing Shan was able to loosen up a bit.
As long as Ivan is unable to contact anyone else in 10 minutes, then no one will know the cause of this whole thing.
Which means, what he has to do in the next 10 minutes became much easier.
“Guards——–“
Ivan shouted, concentrated a white flame in his hand, reaching for Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan shifted his body to dodge, then thrust the sword again.
A hit.
But this attack was very gentle and soft, controlled perfectly so that it wouldn’t deal any damage.
The blade of the sword had turned sideways, the tip bent to one side, the only thing that hit Ivan’s chest was the shaft.
This thrust will not hurt Ivan even a little bit.
The power of the strike enveloped and transferred its momentum to push him away.
“Good luck on your trip” Gu Qing Shan whispered.
———boom!
The entire hallway was blown apart by the remaining sword qi, becoming tattered and broken.
Holy Apostle Ivan was taken by the force of the attack, crashed through the wall and sent flying far away.
Like a meteor, he left an arc of light as he flew across the night sky.
