LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Upon hearing this, the old man’s face showed a bitter smile.

Four trillion…

Jun Chester thought it wasn’t enough?

Since the establishment of Lordran, astronomical investments have been made in transportation.

But compared to the balance in Jun Chester’s account, it’s still less than a third of that money!

Jun Chester glanced at the old man, seemingly seeing through his thoughts and spoke indifferently.

“Between countries, there is no room for kindness!”

“Defeated is defeated. They must bear the consequences of defeat!”

“Throughout history, Lordran has been on the brink of national extinction several times!”

“In other words, if Lordran were to become a defeated country, do you think these wolves would let us go?”

“It’s a pity that I was not born in a time of war. Otherwise, how could I let Lordran suffer such humiliation!”

“Decades ago, we lost millions of soldiers, hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, brutally slaughtered, as if in hell. Have you forgotten all that?”

“Our people have endured so much!”

“As long as I live on this land that raised me, I don’t want to see such a scene!”

“Four trillion is not much. Even if they give me another ten trillion, I will donate it all to my people!”

“I want to see that the people of Lordran will no longer worry about money!”

“Lordran’s highways should be free!”

“Lordran’s schools should also be free!”

“I will pay for all of it!”

These words entered the old man’s ears, and he was moved to tears.

He had been busy with national affairs for decades like it was just one day, neglecting his family.

What was it all for?

He just wanted to see… the people of Lordran living a happy and prosperous life!

After a long time, the old man’s emotions finally stabilized, and he softly responded to Jun Chester with one word.

“Understood.”

The old man then strode towards the second floor of the Commercial Tower.

A meeting was convened.

He and the many loyal high-ranking officials of Lordran discussed the upcoming martial arts tournament schedule.

Jun Chester’s words just now overturned the martial arts tournament schedule they had agreed upon last year!

Moreover, the official start of the martial arts tournament would be in three days!

Outside Jun Chester’s office, Phoenix Myers’ shoulders trembled.

Every word Jun Chester had just said also entered her ears.

He gave up the wealth that reached the heavens and donated it all for the people of Lordran.

What does it take to make such a decision?

Phoenix Myers took a deep breath, as if she had made a very significant decision, and suddenly burst into the office. She stared unblinkingly at Jun Chester’s face. Jun Chester asked faintly, “What’s the matter?” Phoenix Myers pursed her lips, her face full of determination. “I like you.”

Jun Chester’s brow furrowed slightly, and he stood there, stunned. Phoenix Myers asked, “Do you like me?” Jun Chester scolded her with a straight face, “Nonsense!” Phoenix Myers raised her cheeks, looking proud. “I’m not kidding, I really like you, I’m only three years younger than you, and I like you so much!”

Jun Chester’s face darkened even more. “I am your master!” Phoenix Myers replied, “I don’t care!” Jun Chester took a deep breath. “I wanted to keep you by my side, so I could personally train you. Now it seems I was thinking too much! Go train at Lord House, and come see me again after you’ve defeated the Lords’ Guards outside!”

Phoenix Myers blinked, not really understanding what Lord House meant, but she answered without hesitation, “Alright.” With that, Phoenix Myers turned and left. Instead of asking the Lords’ Guards for the exact location of Lord House, she went to the second floor of the Commercial Tower.

In front of all the high-ranking officials of Lordran, she said two sentences to her father, “James, I’ve confessed my feelings to Jun Chester. As punishment, he sent me to train at Lord House, but I’m not afraid. I just wanted to tell you, my future man must be Jun Chester! As my father, I need your full support in my marriage!” James’s face immediately darkened.

In front of him were all the high-ranking officials of Lordran, any one of whom was at least a minister of Lordran. In front of these people, Phoenix Myers actually told him that she had confessed her feelings to Jun Chester… What’s even worse… After being punished by Jun Chester, she didn’t even have a hint of shame! How embarrassing!

At that moment, the entire hall was silent! All the eyes of the high-ranking officials of Lordran were on the old man on the stage and Phoenix Myers standing there. The old man coldly swept his gaze over the many high-ranking officials below the stage. The officials immediately bowed their heads. Some began writing documents, while others began recording the contents of the meeting.

The old man looked at Phoenix Myers again, not saying a word. But the meaning in his eyes was clear. Phoenix Myers, can you stop embarrassing yourself here? Do you have to announce this kind of thing to me here? You’re causing a scene! I’m in a meeting! In a meeting!

Phoenix Myers’ next sentence almost made the old man pass out. “Whomever I choose as a partner is also a matter of national concern. Your position will be mine in ten years!” The old man couldn’t stand it any longer, slamming his hand on the table and yelling, “How dare you!” All the high-ranking officials of Lordran present fell silent.

Phoenix Myers, however, showed no fear. She continued to stare unblinkingly at the old man, slowly speaking, “Just watch me. In ten years, I will become the first female Supreme Lord of Lordran!” With that, Phoenix Myers didn’t care about the old man’s reaction and turned to leave. Her departing figure was tall, confident, and elegant.

The old man watched Phoenix Myers’ retreating back, his face trembling with anger. However, when he thought of the talent Phoenix Myers had shown in governing the countrywhen she was younger, a hint of satisfaction, difficult for others to detect, flashed in his eyes. Any father would have expectations for his child. However, was his daughter worthy of Jun Chester? She mustn’t offend the woman who had a son with Jun Chester!

No, he needed to deal with this matter as soon as possible. As he thought about it, the old man’s brow furrowed. This matter… was difficult to handle!Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

On the other hand, Jun Chester was also worried about the words Phoenix Myers had just said in front of him. He knew his disciple well. Phoenix Myers was a stubborn girl. Once she made up her mind, the word “give up” was not in her dictionary! This matter was very troublesome!

Moreover, only Jun Chester knew that Phoenix Myers’ constitution was different from ordinary people. To some extent, she was also a Pyrokinetic. Once she found the cultivation method that suited her, breaking through the Luminescence stage limit would be just a matter of time!

As Jun Chester was thinking about this, a man’s voice suddenly came from outside the door. “Lord Chester, I am Black Dragon, and I have something to report to you!”
