Chapter 2734
Soon, the queen came walking over with a smile. Behind her was her army of soldiers.
The moment she came over, she held Fade's hand tightly and looked grateful. If it wasn't for the fact that Erin was still too young, she would have married her off to him by now.
After exchanging pleasantries, the queen invited him back to the palace as a guest. She planned to have a banquet in his honor.
Fade did not refuse and returned to the palace with the queen.
The banquet was very lively. Most upper-class elites from Earland were present.
The queen personally toasted to Fade to express her gratitude.
At the same time, she also announced that the previous arrest order was a mistake. She apologized officially to him and waved it off. In a way, she had cleared his name to the world.
As for the Sacred Hall, the Earland officials had placed a charge on them.
It was confirmed that the Sacred Lord had cultivated demonic skills in secret to harm Erin. Fortunately, Fade realized in time and took out the Sacred Lord and all his accomplices. He was a hero for saving the princess.
After the banquet, Fade's reputation totally changed.
Previously, he was a criminal who was wanted by both the royal family of Earland and the Sacred Hall. Everyone saw him as the evil man who assaulted the Saintess and Princess Erin.
After the banquet, he became the honored guest of the queen, a hero who had saved the ancient Sacred Hall and who was also Erin's lifesaver. At the same time, he also became one whom countless nobles yearned to befriend.
News of the huge battle in Earland was spread all over the world. It caused quite a heated discussion globally.
Sure enough, the focus of the public was not on the royal family or the Sacred Hall, but on Fade's powerful martial arts skills.
After all, the strength he had shown this time was downright terrifying.
First, he had defeated the two Half-Lord Level martial artists from the Sacred Hall and the royal family. Then, he broke into the Sacred Hall and killed hundreds of disciples.
Not to mention that he also defeated the Sacred Lord and the demon inside Erin's body.
In the end, he even took out the mutant and Dark Dragon.
Among those topics, most of the discussion revolved around the death of Dark Dragon.
After all, he was a Half-Lord Level expert with the strength of 8,000 streaks of martial essence.
Even so, Fade still managed to kill him. Therefore, everyone was wondering how much martial essence he actually possessed.
It could be 8,500, 9,000, or even 10,000!
Or perhaps, Fade had already reached the Lord Level.
For a time, the hashtag, "Fade, Lord Level expert", was trending online. Every country in the world was discussing what level he had reached.
If he had really reached Lord Level, that would mean that he had made a groundbreaking achievement in the history of humankind.
Incidents of reaching Lord Level before the age of thirty had never occurred before. Even if it had, it was extremely rare.
Amidst all the excitement, Fade did not stay long in Earland. After resting the night, he returned to Capital City.
As soon as he stepped out of the plane, he was welcomed by a huge crowd of people.
All these people were well-known figures in Capital City. They were usually seen only on TV.
Yet now, they were standing below, with bright smiles on their faces. All of them looked up at him expectantly.
"Welcome back, Master Chen!"
There was a burst of applause.
Fade immediately realized that his exploits in Earland had spread worldwide. The big shots had all come over to welcome him.
Seeing this, he expressed his
gratitude and walked down with a
smile. After a brief greeting, he
turned down their offers for celebration, claiming that he was too tired from the journey. He then returned home and spent some quality time with his wife
Anyhow, he couldn't avoid it forever.
The next day, he received another official invitation. Quin had been invited too.
This time, he did not refuse. He got ready and brought Quin along to the celebration banquet.
At the celebratory feast, multiple important figures greeted them with huge smiles on their faces. They were all very welcoming and friendly.
Sure enough, Fade knew the reason why. They were trying to assess his strength and get him to work for the government.
After all, their previous Army Lord,
Jaguar, was injured. The country was now suffering a huge loss in terms of combat power. Due to this, other countries had been taking advantage of the situation.
If it wasn't for Fade's return and his two victories in the last two battles, the country would have faced greater losses.
The country would be invincible with Fade on their side, if he had indeed reached the Lord Level.
No one would dare to attack them anymore!
After all, having a Lord- Level martial artist was like having a mobile nuclear bomb. It was a great threat to any country.
With such a powerful weapon, the country would have a great defense.
Needless to say, Fade did not explicitly mention his true strength. He just vaguely mentioned that he was not far away from reaching the Lord Level.
As for working for the government,
he had promised Jaguar long ago that he would step in whenever the country was in trouble. Being a citizen of the country himself, he would never sit idly by.
However, he was not as selfless as Jaguar, who had devoted decades of his life to defending his country. Jaguar had basically sacrificed his own life for the sake of the country.
Hence, Fade turned down the government's invitation to join the military. Instead, he accepted the title of "Mighty Shield" and promised to help when necessary.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
After the celebration banquet, they returned home.
The celebrities, officials, and businessmen who heard the news came looking for him one after another, hoping to get closer to him, but they were all turned away.
Even his mother-in-law, Chrystal, who never liked him, called Quin to ask what level he had reached.
Quin didn't say much and merely gave her mother a perfunctory reply.
Then, Fade gathered all his relatives and friends in Capital City. They went for a short trip and enjoyed themselves. It was a nice time for him to relax.
Half a month later, the buzz finally died down, and Fade's life slowly began to return to normal.
One day, he had just had some fun with his wife in the bedroom. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
He went to answer the door, but he didn't see anyone. In the mailbox by the door, he found a small parcel.
"A parcel? Did Quin buy something?" He wondered as he brought the parcel in.
