As soon as these words were spoken, the ministers who had been calm suddenly became agitated.

[Dragon of Destruction] is a legendary dragon that roams the border of Ornn all year round.

Dragons don't usually have just one lair.

A dragon of Blake's level can move around in the entire material world and can even roam in the spiritual world.

This cunning creature is well aware of the dangers of humans. Although it lives on the border of Ornn, it usually only moves around on the border of Ornn and never goes deep into human territory.

Although it would occasionally attack human cities, this guy knew how to control himself very well and would not attract encirclement and suppression from human legends. Most of the time, it preferred to pick opponents that were easier to bully.

The Demon Empire, Sea Tribe and Orc Tribe on the Demon Continent are its favorite places to visit.

In a place like this where many ethnic groups live together, even if it does something bad, other tribes will not be outraged and join forces to encircle and suppress it.

This is the habit of intelligent creatures. As long as disaster does not befall them, they always feel that they can stay out of it.

It was not until the long sword called Nuanxue pierced its eyeballs and its head was preserved and paraded as a trophy that its sinful life ended.

"This emperor intends to confer the title of Lord Caesar on the brave man. It is said that he is good at magic swordsmanship and has studied under Jessica [Thunder], the dean of the plastic surgery department of Phoenix Magic University. In that case, he will be given the title of Magic Sword King. What do you think?" Ornn IV said casually.

“As for the fiefdom, Fuguang County among the seven cities in the south is quite good. It has a pleasant climate and simple customs. It is a good place.” He raised his eyes slightly, and there seemed to be a gleam of light shooting out of his eyes, like a strong lion.

The ministers below looked at each other, waiting for someone to take the lead. There was a lot of noise below, but Ornn IV was not in a hurry. Instead, he waited for them to discuss in a low voice.

When the time was almost up, he raised his hand slightly and said, "Silence."

After another ten seconds of silence, the lion crawling on the throne finally became impatient.

"No objections? How about we do it this way?" he said.

The court hall was not big to begin with, and the distance between the courtiers in front and behind was about an arm's length, and the distance between the left and right was even closer.

Someone in the crowd made a move.

My dear, who pushed me out? I weigh more than 250 kilograms, and you could push me.

The Minister of Finance, Hu Tun, was furious, but there were many people standing around him and he had no way of telling who had done this.

"Oh? Hutun, what do you think?" replied Ornn IV.

"Your Majesty, I think..." He hesitated and replied, "Isn't the reward given to the warrior Caesar a bit too much?"

"Warrior Caesar is still young. If Your Majesty grants him a title right away, and later he achieves greater merits, Your Majesty may be in a situation where you have nothing left to reward him with."

“Why not cut a part of it, reward him with some treasures, grant him the title of lord and the title of Demon Sword King, and temporarily postpone the fiefdom? This will also help the brave man to be less arrogant and not become spoiled.” He wiped the sweat off his forehead and answered.

As Hu Tun finished his speech, many voices of agreement emerged among the court officials.

"Oh? Yes, Lord Hutun's insights are very accurate." Ornn IV said meaningfully.

As soon as these words came out, Hu Tun's heart was relieved. The reason why he could become the Minister of Finance was not only because of his family's support behind the scenes, but also because of his own intelligence. If he was just fat, he would not be able to sit in this position.

In this world of extraordinary powers, the power of aristocratic families mediated by bloodline is extremely strong, and the generals of the army are basically from the direct descendants of these families.

Now Ornn IV is still in power. With his personal strength, the various families below the stage are at most epic-level warriors, and no one dares to have any disloyal thoughts.

But legendary warriors are not true gods, and Ornn IV must allow his subordinates to have their voices heard.

The Orn Empire is very large. Even if a Titan wanted to run from the east to the west without stopping for three days and three nights, he would not be able to finish the journey.

To rule such a large territory, he must rely on the power of his family.

Apart from himself, Ornn can now be divided into three voices. One is from the staunch royal supporters. These families are either married or bound by interests. They have long been closely linked to the Allen royal family on a warship.

There is also the voice of various aristocratic families. They have been stationed in the land of Ornn for a long time and their influence is deeply rooted.

The last one is the officials selected from the people. They are the last most neutral force in the court.

As for other smaller factions, there are even more, but basically these three are the ones that have the final say.

Hu Tun represents the power of the aristocratic family at this time.

If you want to grant Xize a fief, you will definitely encounter resistance from the aristocratic families.

The Orn Empire has a total of forty-two provinces, with hundreds of main cities, and a vast territory with abundant resources.

After hundreds of years of development, the forces in various places have already divided up the benefits. No matter where the fiefdom is given to Xize, it will touch their cake.

Your Majesty cannot be unaware of this, but he still raised this point.

Ornn IV is still on the throne, and as long as he wants, he can be the biggest in the court.

But it is impossible for a ruler to ignore the interests of his subordinates. While helping him rule the territory, the aristocratic families also lie on Ornn's neck and suck his blood.

And it is true that defeating the Dragon of Destruction was a great achievement, but to be honest, Caesar's contribution was not that great.

This dragon of destruction does not pose much of a threat to Ornn. If we really want to talk about rewards, the orcs and the sea people should be given more rewards. Ornn is not like the country of the Church, which aims at the well-being of all people in the world.

There was no reason for Ornn IV to be so anxious to reward Caesar, but His Majesty did it anyway, and there was only one reason for that, which was to win over this Caesar warrior.

Thinking of this, Hu Tun suddenly felt enlightened, as if the clouds had cleared away and the sun was shining.

Think about it again, who is missing from the court today? That's right, the eldest prince is here, but the eldest princess is not here. It is said that the eldest princess has a very stubborn temper. She is not here at this time, obviously to prevent her from speaking out.

What is something that she cannot accept? The answer is obvious.

Sacrificing the happiness of a princess to win over a legendary warrior to the empire is the most suitable deal.

"Having said that, the brave Caesar's achievements must be rewarded. I happened to hear that Princess Jefferson is still unmarried, so why not..." Minister Hutun made what he thought was a perfect reading comprehension.
