My Life in Multiverse

Ch 63 – The King’s Speech



After all the announcements about the magic squad's achievements were over and the crowd had finally settled down, Julius continued.

By that point, Alex and the captains had already gotten off the stage.

Julius announced. "Now that the achievement announcements are over, here's the moment you've been waiting for,".

He then gestured towards the entrance of the stage and announced, "His Highness the king of the Clover kingdom Augustus Kira Clover Xlll has graced us with his presence!"

Alex listened to Julius's words and a mocking smile traced his lips.

Walking through an archway connected to the stage, a middle-aged man with a pedophilic mustache dressed in expensive-looking clothes carrying a scepter appeared on the stage and walked up right next to the wizard king.

"Don't stand next to me." He said arrogantly while shooing Julius away.

"Ah yes." Julius nodded before distancing himself.

"G-Give it up for our King!" Julius said to the audience.

He looked at the citizens with an arrogant look on his face and said, "Now revere me! I AM YOUR KING!! I AM THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON IN THIS COUNTRY!! REVERE ME!!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

But what welcomed the king was an awkward silence where the citizens were just looking at the king without doing anything.

The King greeted the citizens once again thinking that the response would be different.

Well, he was in for a rude awakening!

The response was different, but not in a good way.

Looking at Julius and then the king, the crowd cheered with little to no enthusiasm. "Long live the uh, king or whatever..."

"Yeah..."

"...WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!!" 

This made the king angry and he started to scream at the citizens to revere him.

"PRAISE ME MORE YOU PEASANTS!!"

Alex watched the drama unfolding from behind and couldn't help but laugh.

Soon the king started speaking once again but this time he said something which brought
everyone's attention to the man.

"The Eye of the Midnight Sun's hideout has been located."

This made all the citizens who were looking at the king with bored looks widen their eyes in surprise, seeing that the king smiled as well.

"Until now, they have attacked us many times, and they had the upper hand in every battle. Bit things are different now. We are going to launch an all-out attack on the enemy! To that end, I have decided to gather an even more select group from the Magic Knights to form the ultimate hand-picked unit."

The king paused as he passed to let the information sink in. He then tapped his scepter on the ground and started speaking once again.

"They will be called... The Royal Knights!!!"

"A week from now, I will hold an exam for all Magic Knights. Only those who pass this exam
will be allowed to join the Royal Knights. And then, we will destroy the Eye of the Midnight
Sun!"

The King then did the magic knight salute seeing which all the gathered magic knights salted as well.

"Magic Knights, offer up your grimoires in service to this kingdom!" The king yelled as all
the non-magic knight citizens rose in cheers for the royal knights.

The King who was now satisfied with the response of the citizens soon released the salute
seeing which the magic knights stood at ease as well.

The King then announced the festival to be over as he tapped the staff on the ground and
immediately the sky was filled with fireworks.

After the speech of the 'King' was over, Julius called Alex and Yuno to urge them to participate in the exams and won a spot.

The Wizard King had high hopes for them!

Alex and Yuno climbed down the tower, chatting about stuff when they came across Mereoleona beating Leopold and the members of the Crimson Lions for getting a lower rank, firing them up.

Alex smiled at her actions and muttered. "You're as ruthless as ever!"

"Hmm... So, you're here. I'm searching around for you." Mereoleona grinned, her fire turning into the shape of a lion.

"Want to get your ass whipped again?!" Alex also grinned, his aura turning wild and a shadow of a black dragon appeared behind him.

Leopold raised his hand and gave a thumb up to Alex for daring to stand up against his sister since no one had ever dared to do that.

"Heh? Do you think it will be like last time?" Mereoleona's grin grew wider, showing her all teeth. "This time... I'll beat you to death!"

"Then let's go! I can't wait to do you again~!" Alex's grin twisted into something sinister and dangerous as he was hyped for the battle.

Mereoleona instantly grabbed Leopold and Yuno before she walked out towards the bar. Alex followed her closely, wanting to see Yami's face when she would grab him too.

It would be one hell of a sight.

Yami was enjoying himself at a bar, mocking the other captains and making fun of them.

"It was great! You should have looked at the faces of that scrawny bug and braided bangs. Their reaction was just priceless." Yami was laughing happily, drinking the wine as he celebrated the victory.

"You seem white pleased with yourself for climbing the ranks just once."

Suddenly hearing a familiar voice Yami's body stiffened up as his head turned robotically toward the direction of the voice only to find Mereoleona standing there with her arms crossed.

"S-Sisgoleon..."

"Who the hell are you calling 'Sisgoleon'?" Mereoleona asked with a dark face.

Yami replied with a serious face. "Well, you're Fuegoleon's sister, so that'd make you Sisgoleon."

"We siblings are not referred to by such nicknames."

"Huh, you mean your family is not like Grampsgoleon, Gramsgoleon, Daddygoleon,
Mommygoleon, and so on?" Yami asked in total seriousness.

"Damn... Mommygoleon almost got me," Alex couldn't help his laughter.

Seeing him standing beside Mereoleona, Yami started laughing and said, "Looks like she caught you, kid."

Mereoleona simply ignored Yami's comment and started walking toward Yami, grabbing him too.

"You are coming as well." Mereoleona declared.

"Huh?"

"You weren't even late to the event. you simply didn't bother to show up...Not to mention-"

Suddenly the aura around her turned threatening as she looked at Yami with a predatory smile on her face. 

"You were trying to challenge me back there, huh?" Mereoleona grinned with killing intent.

Yami looked at the woman in front of her but to him, she appeared to be a reaper clad in
flames.

He turned to Alex and said. "Kid, I'm giving you a mission. Save me from her!"

Alex listened and laughed. "Sorry, Captain. I think it will be best for you to follow her willingly or else, she will burn you to ashes!"

And just like that, she got out of the establishment with the people hanging on the
flame paws behind her, well aside from one, who was just walking beside her with his hands behind his head.

Alex had no care in this world since he was looking forward to having some private time with Mereoleona later.
