Chapter 584: Spirit Town King
The reason James Myers came to the South Capital Arms Division was that the Chief of the South Capital, Hadwin Moore, informed him that Jun Chester was here.
Inside the Martial Hall of the War Division, there was continuous applause!
On his way to the South Capital War Division, James Myers had already learned about Yanis Shaw’s story through Hadwin Moore.
When James Myers learned that Jun Chester was going to award Yanis Shaw with a first-class merit medal, he simply said:
“Well deserved!”
Soon, the car carrying James Myers arrived outside the Martial Hall.
As James Myers walked into the hall, surrounded by people, the place fell silent.
Jun Chester, who was on stage, was the first to notice James Myers.
Following Jun Chester’s gaze, everyone in the hall, including Yanis Shaw who had just received her rank insignia, looked towards the entrance at James Myers.
For a moment, everyone gasped.
Is this…
The Supreme Leader?
Why did he suddenly come here?
The most shocked were Yanis Shaw on stage and Lorelei Harding and Hubert Martins sitting in the front row.
Seeing this supreme leader of Lordran, they were all stunned.
What’s going on?
Three months ago, after Jun Chester fought a fierce battle with the envoys from Island of the Five Emperors at Emei, James Myers spread the news that Jun Chester had died!
His purpose was to lure out traitors. Now, James Myers used a method of faking death to have someone from Lordran lead Andy Salazar to attack Island of the Five Emperors. In reality, this person was fictitious, it was Jun Chester himself.
This time, James Myers wanted to hold a coronation ceremony for Jun Chester, bestowing upon him the title of Spirit Town King. But no one knew that Spirit Town King was actually Jun Chester! Especially those aristocratic families in Lordran, they all believed Jun Chester was dead!
After paying respects to James Myers, Jun Chester and Hubert Martins went to the War Division cafeteria with him.
James Myers informed Jun Chester of his purpose for coming.
“The person who led Andy Salazar and others to attack Island of the Five Emperors was a fictitious character I created to help you avenge. The battle was victorious!”
“Now, the coronation ceremony must be held as scheduled. Only then will those domestic and foreign aristocratic forces, even the person who kidnapped your sister-in-law, be lured out!”
“At least they will send people to investigate! This way, whether domestic or foreign traitors come, we can catch them all in one go!”
“If this succeeds, Lordran’s internal and external troubles will be resolved!”
Jun Chester and Hubert Martins marveled at James Myers’ foresight. They knew that after the coronation ceremony, the struggle among major families would begin.
Half an hour later.
Jun Chester walked out of the cafeteria.
Felicia Hampton immediately approached and asked,
“Return to Dirtmouth or stay in the South Capital?”
Jun Chester replied calmly,
“You go back to Spirit Town.”
Felicia Hampton’s expression changed but soon returned to normal. She took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from her bosom and handed it to Jun Chester, saying softly,
“Okay.”
Jun Chester said nothing more.
Felicia Hampton stared at Jun Chester without blinking. Seeing no further reaction from him, she turned and left.
But after a few steps, Jun Chester called her back.
“You can stay by my side, but for a hundred years, you are just a maid. If you dare act on your own and disrupt Lordran’s stability, I will kill you!”
Felicia Hampton’s face tightened and she turned back.
A week later, at the coronation ceremony, Jun Chester was bestowed the title of Spirit Town King.
Suddenly, major aristocratic forces within the country emerged, causing chaos in Lordran, Western countries also moved like rats, preparing to collude with domestic forces to further destabilize Lordran.
At this time, James Myers had already made comprehensive preparations, knowing that a chaotic battle was inevitable.
Jun Chester took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. After being crowned Spirit Town King, he intensified his army’s training but knew his current strength was insufficient. To protect Lordran’s unity, he needed greater power.
Looking at his still young child, he made a resolute decision.
Then Jun Chester took Dion back to Hill Grandsilk Villa.
Seeing Jun Chester suddenly appear, Lyvia Harding was momentarily stunned.
After three months of fear and anxiety!
She never believed the rumors that Jun Chester was dead. Now seeing her husband suddenly appear before her, she immediately threw herself into his arms with teary eyes.
For the next two days, Jun Chester stayed with Lyvia Harding until her best friend Abbie brought a gift.
It was an ornate box!
Inside was a mysterious ancient painting. Abbie said: “This is the Rebirth Map. I got it from a Taoist temple in Chinatown while studying abroad because I used to have nightmares. After getting this ancient painting, I stopped having nightmares. It is said to ward off evil spirits and guide souls to heaven or hell.”
“When I got this painting, the Taoist priestess said it was a magical artifact that brings good luck!”
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in Maple.
In a Taoist temple on Chinatown Street, a copper bell suddenly rang.
A beautiful woman meditating in mid-air opened her eyes upon hearing the bell.
Her name was Elena Harding!
From the Chronicles of the Human Emperor!
She gazed eastward and murmured: “Eric Chester, your sins will be repaid by your son!”
She then took down the copper bell hanging at the door and left only an afterimage as she headed eastward.
At this moment in Hill Grandsilk Villa, Jun Chester asked with deep suspicion: “Abbie, you said this ancient painting is from an overseas Taoist temple. Where is this temple?”
Abbie softly replied: “Maple, Yehua State, Chinatown.”
Jun Chester thought for a moment and asked: “What is the name of that Taoist priestess?”
Abbie recalled: “I don’t know her name, but she looks very much like your wife. That’s why I befriended her back then.”
Jun Chester felt something strange.
After a while, he took the Rebirth Map to his room on the second floor to study it.
Lyvia Harding and Abbie chatted about private matters in the living room.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Soon, Jun Chester became immersed in the Rebirth Map.
One day!
Two days!
Three days!
There were no signs of waking up.
This made Lyvia Harding, Lillian Chester, Felicia Hampton, and Fabian Chester extremely anxious.
Especially Abbie, she had meant well but now felt she had caused trouble.
At this moment, they could see both sides of the Rebirth Map glowing with strange light as if pulling Jun Chester into a mysterious nightmare.
While Jun Chester was deeply trapped in this nightmare!
Beyond Drunkfield, there was a beautiful woman who looked exactly like Lyvia Harding…
