Hail the King

The gentle and calm young man who was here to invite Lewis and his family suddenly turned cold and glanced around, and the chilly spirit instantly made those former nobles shut their mouths. Right now, this young man was no longer kind and friendly; he turned into a killer who was merciless and looked at living beings coldly.

Now, no one dared to doubt this young man’s words.

It was clear that this young man who looked to be in his twenties was a master warrior.

When he turned around, this young man’s expression turned gentle and kind again. With a smile, he said, ”Sir, please follow me!”

Lewis and his family followed this young man and walked toward the group of people that represented the power circle of Alania. Others around them looked at them in confusion and envy, and they felt anxious and unsure.

Wherever they went, the crowd separated by moving to two sides and made a path for them.

Soon, they got to the stairs before the Royal Palace.

Lewis was an experienced person. When he got here, he didn’t dare to move forward anymore. With his wife and daughter, they kneeled and kowtowed while shouting, ”Greetings, honorable and kind Emperor. Greetings, honorable and kind Father of the Nation!”

”Please get up,” the young emperors’ gentle voice sounded by his ear.

Only then did Lewis have the courage to stand up, and he felt dizzy. The people in front of him were all influential figures who he could rarely see, but they were all smiling and looking at him.

”Am I dreaming?” Lewis thought to himself. His wife and daughter were doing much worse; their legs turned to jelly, and they felt a little suffocating.

”You three don’t need to be so formal. Father of the Nation invited you over. Come here and stand by me.” Young Leo who was wearing a golden crown already had the majesty of an emperor, and his words and actions reflected his status and nobility. He waved his hands and told Lewis’s Family to stand beside him and Fei.

It was a great honor.

The people in the area heard it, and they were shocked, not knowing what was happening.

”Why is the Emperor treating this little grain merchant this well? He is even allowing this man who has an inferior bloodline to stand on the stairs. Even the new nobles don’t have this privilege!” they thought to themselves.

Right now, Lewis felt like he was going to faint. He didn’t know what was going to happen, and he walked onto the stairs with his wife and daughter. While standing beside the Emperor, he squeezed out a smile onto his face, but it looked uglier than a crying expression. It wasn’t that he wasn’t excited; it was just that everything came so suddenly, and he didn’t know why this was happening. Therefore, he was nervous and anxious.

”When I was chatting with Father of the Nation, he mentioned that there is a grain merchant in Dixie City named Moreau Lewis, and this man is kind, generous, and righteous. Also, he really cares about the empire and is loyal to Alania. In the last while, he has been offering simple porridge to the homeless refugees every day at certain times, saving many Alanians. Father of the Nation praised you, and I’m very pleased as well. I appreciate your actions and thoughts; you are indeed a role model for all merchants of Alania!”

Everyone realized what was going on after hearing the young Emperor’s words.

Lewis also gradually understood what was happening.

Things weren’t exactly like that; he didn’t actively do the act of kindness.

Chapter 927: Legendary Night (Part Five)

Since many refugees starved to death every day, his pure and kind daughter Jenny couldn’t watch. Therefore, she stole a little bit of grains from the storage every day and set up a few kitchens in the poor areas of the city, offering free porridge to refugees. Lewis learned about this later, but he didn’t stop her. Although he valued the grains since a little bag of grains could go for a gold bar in Dixie City and the Alania Empire, this middle-aged merchant had a kind heart and loved his daughter. After he failed to dissuade his daughter, he allowed her to continue what she was doing.

Lewis had no idea that Father of the Nation heard of this random act of kindness, and it was going to bring him so much honor.

After learning what was going on, Lewis was excited yet a little ashamed.
