A rare magical miracle in the world

Chapter 342 - 173: Iron Eagle King (Requesting Monthly Pass)



News from the Miracle Mainland spreads rapidly.

Yatun is a small country, with few paying attention, but a major power like Aolai is watched every day by many.

The alliance between Aolai and Yatun was even a military one.

Almost on the second day after this event happened, the news spread throughout the entire Miracle Mainland.

"Who has formed an alliance with whom?"

In the Iron Eagle Kingdom, a dark elf with silver long hair and pointed ears showed a look of surprise.

"Yatun? Where is this Yatun from? Wasn’t Yatun destroyed 200 years ago?"

The dark elf was very beautiful, but not enchantingly so, rather she had a coldness that kept others at a distance.

She wore an eyepatch, covering her right eye, which added a touch of ferocity to her cold demeanor.

This dark elf was Yue Yao, one of the four giants under the Iron Eagle King, responsible for the intelligence and shadow operations of the Iron Eagle Country as the Apostle of Magic Domain.

"Aolai Country, that is a renowned military power celebrated for a thousand years."

Among the Eight Kings of the Mountains, Aolai ranks first.

This saying, Yue Yao had heard more than once, which speaks to Aolai Country’s strength.

Although it had not initiated any external wars in over two hundred years, such a power was definitely not something the current Iron Eagle could contend with.

"Where is Karn? This matter must be reported to him immediately."

Yue Yao excelled in intrigue, but she had no talent for the play of politics between great nations.

Only a legendary general like Karn had enough political acumen.

"General Karn is stationed in the west."

"Is the matter with the Heavenly King still unresolved?"

Yue Yao massaged her temples, quite troubled, "Tsk, I must see His Majesty."

"But now is..."

Her subordinate glanced at the sky; in such deep night, even the Iron Eagle King would have already retired for the night.

"It’s the same now!"

Yue Yao hurried toward the Iron Eagle King’s palace.

This was a city entirely dark, twinkling with the glow of blue mana lights, with numerous magic energy puppets and magic statues patrolling the streets like soldiers.

And at the very center of this splendid city stood the Iron Eagle King’s palace.

This land was called the Magic Domain, because the mining of mana ore caused mana to seep into every corner, altering the entire territory.

Plants, animals, inanimate objects, after two hundred years, this former capital of King Yatun had changed beyond recognition.

It now belonged to the Iron Eagle and served as the capital of the Iron Eagle Kingdom.

"Lady Yue Yao."

The gate was guarded by two Warriors of the Ghost Palace, who stopped Yue Yao: "At such a late hour, may I ask..."

"Ahh, ah~~"

"Your Majesty, please don’t~~"

"!!!"

With her extraordinary perception, Yue Yao intended to simply notify the Iron Eagle King, but the feedback she received shocked her: "His Majesty tonight, who is he favoring? How did I not know?"

"It was a gift from Karno Kine..."

Upon hearing this, Yue Yao almost cursed aloud. As the head of the Iron Eagle’s covert operations, to be outmaneuvered this way was a disgrace.

More importantly, the safety of the Iron Eagle King was at stake. If he suffered the slightest injury, Yue Yao could not shirk the blame.

"Get out of the way!"

Yue Yao brandished her magic wand, directly repelling the two Warriors of the Ghost Palace.

"Master Yue Yao!"

"You mustn’t barge into His Majesty’s palace!"

Under normal circumstances, it might have been overlooked.

But what was the Iron Eagle King doing now, in such special circumstances, how could she dare, how dare she enter?

"Out of the way!"

However, how were two Master Level guards qualified to stop the advance of a Legendary Warrior?

"I’d like to see who dares to stop me!"

As a Legendary Warrior under the Iron Eagle King’s command, Yue Yao had an suppressing effect on them, without needing to lift a finger, her mere magic energy was enough to deter them.

"Master Yue Yao, why, why is this happening?"

They naturally could not raise a hand against Yue Yao; she was their direct superior, one of their own.

"You’re asking me why? Do you even know what you are doing?"

"Who gave you permission to bring a strange woman to His Majesty’s bed?"

"Have you lost your minds?!"

Without stopping, Yue Yao hurried straight to the grand doors of the Iron Eagle King’s bedchamber.

"But, but Karno Geni said, you had permitted it..."

Karno Geni was not a Miracle Citizen, he was just a merchant, from a hereditary family of nobility.

"These maggots, they actually dare to reach their hands into this affair!"

Yue Yao was utterly startled, the murderous intent in her heart even harder to contain, and she quickly pushed open the door and entered.

"Boom!"

The people inside heard the noise; the woman became extremely flustered, while the man turned to look at Yue Yao standing at the door with a face full of confusion.

"What’s the matter?"

The Iron Eagle King was a young man in his late twenties. His face had a bit of stubble, not as unsightly as the People of Yatun imagined, but actually quite handsome.

"It’s Yue Yao, you’re coming in so late at night, I thought someone had broken in."

"Your Majesty!"

Yue Yao stepped forward, looking directly at the Iron Eagle King, "What are you doing?"

"What, what?"

There sat the Iron Eagle King, face-to-face with a fair-skinned, blonde-haired Elf woman, with scissors in his hand, he seemed to have been cutting the Elf woman’s hair just now.

"Yue Yao, you’ve come at the right time, look at the hairstyle I’ve cut; isn’t it beautiful?"

The Iron Eagle King in his dark blue night robe stood up and smoothed out the wrinkles on the bedding before picking up a glass of wine from the cabinet and pouring a drink.

"Click."

He put down the bottle, aligning it perfectly, "Hmm, perfect."

The woman on the bed was indeed a beauty.

And Yue Yao could see that she carried some White Elf lineage, which disgusted her.

As a matter of fact, the Elf woman was also bewildered.

Wasn’t she brought here for the pleasure of the Iron Eagle King? Why had this King spent the whole night fussing with her hair, but still hadn’t touched her?

Was there something wrong with the Iron Eagle King?

"Wasn’t she the one you brought for me? Why the hurry?"

"No, not me, Your Majesty."

Yue Yao knelt on one knee, nervous, her voice trembling, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. It was my failure to investigate that allowed that scheming merchant, Karno Geni, to get close to you."

A woman of unknown origin, how could Yue Yao allow such a person to approach the Iron Eagle King?

"I did think it was strange, why she was pulling and tugging right from the start."

The Iron Eagle King looked at the White Elf, whose face turned pale with fear as she hastily pleaded, "Your servant doesn’t know, they, they only said I was to serve a noble person, your servant had no ill intentions at all."

The White Elf was also bewildered; upon her arrival, she was told only that she would accompany an important figure.

But the Iron Eagle King, a ruler of a nation.

This "important figure" was indeed significantly important!!

"Whether you harbor ill intentions, I will see for myself!"

Yue Yao raised her hand, and light blue mana instantly enveloped the White Elf, who felt as though a giant hand had grasped her, causing her excruciating pain throughout her body.

"Ah!!!!"

Listening to the White Elf’s scream, the Iron Eagle King calmly sipped his wine on the side. After Yue Yao had finished, and the White Elf had collapsed to the ground like a dehydrated fish, he asked, "How is it? Was she here to assassinate me?"

"No."

Yue Yao was actually not worried that the Iron Eagle King would be assassinated, but rather that he would be offended.

As long as his country, the Miracle Kingdom of the Three Awakening Miracles stood, no one could bypass this vast domain to execute a decapitating strategy against him.

However, Karnojini was merely a merchant within the Iron Eagle Kingdom.

Even if he was the wealthiest in the world, he simply did not understand the world of miracles.

Mortals, not knowing any better, always do some ignorant and laughable things. If this White Elf, not knowing any better, were to rush up and stab the Iron Eagle King.

Even though it wouldn’t cause much harm, it would undoubtedly be a lapse in Yue Yao’s vigilance.

What a disgrace!

What a disgrace indeed!!

Should such a thing happen, Yue Yao might as well die of shame by finding a place to bury herself alive.

"I thought as much, if she were here to assassinate me, she would at least be dressed properly."

"Look at these clothes."

His Majesty the Iron Eagle King stepped forward, gently wiping the drool from the corner of the White Elf’s mouth. He then smoothed out her clothes, properly covering the exposed parts.

At the same time, he corrected her posture, placed her hands on her chest, and laid her flat on the bed.

"Your Majesty, you..."

"If she’s not a bad child, then she must be a good one, right?"

"But she, she is a White Elf."

At this, Yue Yao looked somewhat embarrassed and lowered her head.

In the Miracle Kingdom, what does race matter? There are only the children of the Master of Miracles. As long as one is a citizen, why should we differentiate between White Elf and Dark Elf?

"I know you hate the White Elves, Yue Yao, but that’s not the issue."

Not the issue?

Yue Yao remembered her childhood when the Iron Eagle King appeared like a deity and wiped the mud off her face with his own hands: ’The left side is dirtier than the right, sigh, let me clean it up for you.’

"......."

Well, it wasn’t exactly a happy memory.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

Seeing the Iron Eagle King reaching toward her, Yue Yao hastily retreated while protecting her eye mask.

"I’ve told you so many times, you’re wearing that eye mask all wrong."

"Your Majesty, that’s how an eye mask is supposed to be worn."

"Nonsense."

The Iron Eagle King forcibly pinned down Yue Yao’s shoulders. The powerful Apostle of the Magic Domain sat obediently like a little girl in front of her own king.

"This way, now it’s right."

The Iron Eagle King tugged at Yue Yao’s eye mask, pulling it to the center of her forehead.

Yue Yao, with her beautiful light blue eyes exposed, wanted to cry but had no tears.

If she goes out like that, the proud Apostle of Magic Domain would surely be taken for a fool.

"Your Majesty."

But now, more pressing matters were at hand, "Yatun has formed an alliance with Aolai, a military one at that."

"Oh, Yatun? That Yatun?"

The Iron Eagle King carefully peeled the skin off the fruit, "Saros’s Yatun? He’s really something, huh? I’ve been looking for him for over ten years and haven’t found him."

"He seems to be hiding in the Thistle Province."

"He’s hiding there, huh!"

Placing the completely peeled skin on the cabinet, the Iron Eagle King began to pluck the white pith from the fruit, one strand at a time, "It must have been tough for him, hiding in the backwoods for over a decade. How could he stand it?"

"What, has he come for revenge?"

"Miracle Kingdom’s development isn’t that fast; even he couldn’t possibly come now."

Yue Yao said, "I find it strange that the domineering King of Aolai would form an alliance with Yatun, even if Saros had some encounters with him back in the day, it shouldn’t amount to this."

As she spoke, she stealthily raised her hand, ready to adjust her eye mask back into place

"Cough."

The Iron Eagle King coughed, startling Yue Yao into quickly lowering her hand, then she put on a ’well-behaved, sensible, and obedient’ expression.

"How would I know? I’ve left all these matters to you guys, Karn and the old village chief, just talk to them."

The Iron Eagle King placed the cleanly peeled fruit in Yue Yao’s hand, "How about that, nicely peeled, huh?"

"Well..."

Seeing the Iron Eagle King straighten the eye mask on her forehead, Yue Yao felt wronged, "His Majesty’s people have violated the border, and Mr. Karn has led the troops over."

"The village elder has been working on the blueprints left by Glarus lately."

"I’m in charge of the shadow department," Yue Yao said, "I don’t know his progress."

"And the Warfronter?"

"That idiot doesn’t manage anything, with only fight and kill on his mind," Yue Yao felt that the Eternal Warfronter must have run off because he couldn’t stand the Iron Eagle King, "He’s probably gone off to challenge some master in another country."

"Don’t worry."

The Iron Eagle King patted the woman’s shoulder, comforting her like a father would a daughter, "When the village elder finishes building it, we’ll leave here and find a place where no one can find us."

"The conflicts here have nothing to do with us."

The Iron Eagle King had long grown weary of fighting and killing, or rather, from the beginning, he never intended to kill or invade anyone.

Sometimes, one is forced into certain situations against their will.

"Also, the grand meeting of all the kings that happens once every decade is about to start."

The Iron Eagle King said, "Prepare for it for me, and remember, the colors must match, not like last time with all that red and green."

"Yes!"

Yue Yao understood what the Iron Eagle King meant.

No matter what Aolai and Yatun were up to, everything would come to light at the grand meeting of kings.

"But, about the uniform color…"

Yue Yao said, "I think you should talk to Karn about that, he never takes off his armor."

"The armor is Karn’s true self, after all."

The Iron Eagle King didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, "Then just match it to Karn’s armor color."

"It seems it was the same the time before last."

"Then give his armor a new color."

The Iron Eagle King said, "If he can’t take it off, doesn’t mean I can’t dye it, right?"

Yue Yao: You make such a good point, I’m at a loss for words.
