A knighthood is not just a title or a territory.

In this star field, the vast majority of countries are feudal monarchies. Because of the ruler's intentional control, nearly half of the people have only received low-level basic education, and the illiteracy rate in some countries is even as high as two-thirds.

Almost all of these people worship knowledge and power, and the people at the bottom are full of fear and yearning for the privileged class.

In this starry sky, the title of nobility is the most powerful proof of credibility and a status symbol for individuals to gain a foothold in the top society.

Leon can be disdainful, but if he wants to move forward and complete his mission, then he needs a decent, noble, trustworthy and widely recognized identity.

The people are somewhat happy to hear the Duke's eldest son's request.

The illegitimate children of royal family members almost run away from the emperor.Not to mention that Felix himself has three admitted illegitimate children, and even Rafael and Louis each have one or two public illegitimate children.

Although these illegitimate children could not inherit their father's title, they were all given titles and wealth in addition.Regardless of marriage or business, they are quite concerned by the royal family.

Compared with these illegitimate children, Leon is still a serious concubine.

In fact, as early as when the Duke of Oran's family came to the imperial capital, the Duke wrote a letter asking for the title for his eldest son.But when that share got to the emperor, it disappeared without a trace, not even a splash.

Everyone knows it well.The emperor used this matter as a handle to manipulate the Duke of Oran.

Although it is not a big deal, it can demonstrate his authority - this is what he cares about and is passionate about most since he entered middle age, even surpassing managing state affairs.

The Duke of Oran didn't seem to care much about this matter, he was busy having fun all day long, throwing money everywhere, and playing ambiguous games with the crown prince endlessly.

But no one expected that the eldest son of the duke, who had been holding the figure of the dandy young master, was impatient and continued to wait.He broke the script, tore off the disguise, made an unprecedented high-profile appearance, and personally fought for his rights.

Entering the field with an impostor, turning the game around by his own power, changing the mecha on the spot, and even awakening the "Asura" who has been on standby for 4000 years, and even fought bloody all the way to "removing the armor" until he won the final victory.

Then, in public, he asked the emperor to give him a quasi-word.

In all the years Felix had been on the throne, no one had ever done anything so audacious.

In the entire gymnasium, the silence creaked stiffly, and a million pairs of eyes were staring straight at the rostrum.

The emperor's slow, low voice, with a slightly fuzzy enunciation, sounded again after a short silence.

"Your request is reasonable, my child. In reward for your service to the Empire, I will grant you the title, Earl!"

It was ten o'clock that night.Although the game is over, the grand event of the night has just entered the right track.

Tonight is the last day of "Guangji Day".Throughout Glori City, there are ten large-scale performances at the same time, and citizens can participate in them.This carnival will last all night until dawn.

The Champs Elysees Palace, located on the hillside of Glory, is actually a magnificent and magnificent palace complex, consisting of dozens of palaces, large and small.At this moment, the palace was brightly lit, as if a god had dropped a handful of luminous orbs on the hillside.

The Amethyst Palace dedicated to banquets is full of guests and friends, envoys and distinguished guests from various countries, dignitaries and celebrities from their own countries, gathered together happily.

The newly-baked Earl Wellman was heading for the Amethyst Hall along the alabaster palace arcade.

The young man changed out of his dirty combat uniform, and he was completely transformed in an instant. His outstanding appearance made him reluctant to look away.

His short blond hair was combed meticulously, and he was wearing a well-tailored black court dress. His straight calves were wrapped in bright military boots, and every rigid line fit his fit and tall body.The short cloak with scarlet lining was elegantly tied on the shoulders, and with the heroic steps, it couldn't stop flying, like a cluster of jumping flames.

The appearance of the youth caused quite a stir.Along the way, there were guests greeting him all the time, and those eyes had all unified into another look: respect, admiration, and curiosity.

The young and beautiful Omegas are more direct and enthusiastic, like a group of chirping birds, flapping their wings to catch up with the young man's footsteps, trying to keep him.

"Today's game was quite exciting, Lord Earl!"

"Do you have any plans for tomorrow?"

Leon found that he could dodge the fist of the mad shark, but he couldn't escape the chasing and interception of these little Os.

This group of boys and girls obviously have not received military training, but they are talented, intelligent, and self-taught.The formations taught in military schools may not be as perfect as theirs.

"How did you come up with the idea to replace Brandon?"

"Will you continue to participate in the Mecha Tournament?"

Leon, however, didn't need to answer any questions at all.The group of Omegas asked themselves questions and discussed excitedly around him.Many of them met Leon in social situations in the past, and even didn't bother to look at him more.

"Excuse me." Kuangsha's rough voice came from behind the crowd.

The little O's paled, and retreated far away in unison, a look of fright as a small miscellaneous fish saw a great white shark.

Kuang Sha is a married man, without looking at those Omega, strode up to Leon.

The two opponents faced each other in silence.The elder's aura was outrageous, and even a neat suit couldn't hide it.The young man was calm and indifferent, coupled with a gorgeous attire, he looked like a noble son with delicate skin and tender flesh.

Suddenly, Kuangsha grinned and stretched out his hand to Leon: "That contest was very enjoyable!"

Leon also showed a lazy smile and shook hands with him: "It's a great honor to ask you for advice, Mr. Nevester."

"Ah, just call me Kuang Sha." Kuang Sha laughed boldly, and put his arm on Leon's shoulder familiarly, hooking his neck.

"It feels a bit impolite." The newly promoted Earl said politely, "It is the etiquette of our country to call you by your surname."

The mad shark said: "Is that so? My full name is Victor Eugene Ikadlovsky Polva Nevster."

Leon: "..."

"So, just call me Kuangsha!" Kuangsha laughed loudly, and slapped Leon's back with his giant palm, almost hitting him with internal injuries.

His thick laughter and the aggressive Alpha pheromone emanating from his body drove the little Os on the side another ten meters away.

"You are a very promising fighter." Mad Shark said in a fair manner, "I have been in WWE for so many years in the entire interstellar world, and I have never seen a better seedling than you. We should compete more in the future."

"It's my honor to ask an experienced senior like you for advice." Leon said humbly.

"Let's go to the banquet hall together." Kuang Sha hooked his shoulders together, "I heard that your emperor brought out all the good wines in his collection..."

"Sorry." Leon politely declined, "I think I have to take my leave first."

"Miss such a grand banquet?" Kuang Sha was surprised, "I heard that there will be fireworks throughout the city tonight, and the fountain lawn of the palace is the best place to watch it."

"I'm really sorry." Leon's eyes had turned to the other end of the corridor, and they were fixed on a white figure.

"My Omega is waiting for me." He whispered, with a hint of emotion lingering in his plain words.

Ian had also bathed and changed his clothes. He was wearing a snow-white robe for formal occasions and a holy light talisman. He was solemn and meticulous.

Under the bright corridor light, the young priest's serene side face is handsome and beautiful, with almost flawless outline.The light made his face, his clothes, all glow.

As a special guest who made a big splash on the field today, Ian was honored to be invited to the palace party tonight.He had just met Felix IV with several religious figures.

Everyone was a little self-evidently disappointed, because anyone with a discerning eye could see that the emperor's mental state was not very good, so that he seemed very absent-minded towards them.

Felix only asked one more question when Ian stepped forward to salute: "Did you summon the Holy Light again, Father?"

Ian had been prepared for a long time, and replied calmly: "Holy light is a gift from God. Only God bestows it on us, but we cannot call it down. And I am not a god, Your Majesty, I am just a humble and pious worshiper." waiter."

The emperor seemed to smile: "Then, may your piety remain the same."

Yi An stood in the corridor, watching his companion talking about the rumors about the emperor's illness, but didn't listen to a word.

And when that gaze fell on him, it was as if the threads of his heart trembled slightly, and he felt it immediately.

He turned his head and looked across the corridor.Under the light, stood a tall and tall young man, with blond hair shining under the light.

The two looked at each other at a distance of tens of meters, their gazes forming a soft line.After staring at each other for a moment, they walked out of the corridor in unison, leaving the crowd.

Leon stepped on the soft turf, walked leisurely and lazily, and walked in front of Ian.

"Earl Wellman." Ian smiled meaningfully, "How is it? Are you satisfied with what you won?"

"So far, everything has been as I wished." Leon put his hands in his pockets, with a loose face, "But I thought it would only be a baron. Now it's a little surprise."

Most of the children of princes and princes are earls, and most of the children of dukes are barons.His Majesty Felix's reward today has made many people say that he loves the Duke's family very much. Even the eldest son was made an earl, and the territory is said to be very vast and rich.

"I'm so happy for you, Leon!" Ian sighed, "You deserve it long ago. In my opinion, you are more noble and work harder than most of them. You got today Everything is true to its name.”

"And all of this, without you, I wouldn't be able to get it at all." Leon took a step closer, almost touching Ian's body, and whispered, "I feel...that power again."

Ian's body stiffened involuntarily.

"It's you?" Leon lowered his head, his mouth almost touching Ian's ear, "You summoned 'Asura' for me, didn't you? Just like in the deep sea back then."

Ian's throat tightened, thankfully the night was thick enough to cover the bewilderment on his face.But he didn't know that when he was nervous, the pheromone would fluctuate, and none of them could escape the nose of the Alpha in front of him.

The badge transformed into Asura is pinned on Leon's chest at the moment.

As if it had been re-polished, the round badge was shiny silver and black, and it was no longer dark.The fingernail-sized ice sapphire in the middle is crystal clear as if dust has been brushed off, and there is a faint ray of bright blue light wandering in the crystal.

Asura is not an ordinary mech, it is a biologically certified armor with only one master for a lifetime.After the death of its owner, Brad Coleman, Brad's second and third generations of children and grandchildren can barely start it, but have been unable to operate it.

After the death of the last direct member of the third generation, Asura went completely dormant and was never awakened again—until today, 4000 years later.

So after conferring the title, Leon returned Asura to Felix IV.But the emperor did another thing that surprised all his children and grandchildren: he gave Asura to Leon.

"It chose you." The emperor said solemnly, "A armor has chosen its new owner. Then, no power can separate them. It belongs to you, young man."

Leon said to Ian: "At that time, when you were praying on my chest, I felt that wave again. There was something echoing with my soul in the distance. It felt like a ball The warm light poured from your body to mine, which gave me some kind of magical power and established a connection with Asura."

Ian said nothing.

"You don't need to say anything, Ian." Leon grabbed Ian's cold hand and folded his hands in his warm palm, "I know they all think that your rumors are just a gimmick to boost your self-worth. I also know You deliberately misunderstood them. But no matter what reason you choose to hide yourself, I believe you. I believe you, Ian!"

Ian lowered his head, his face was hidden in the shadows, and a long, snow-white neck was exposed behind his collar, appearing pious and docile.

"My cooperation with you is not just to get rid of the fate of being a chess piece for Archbishop Xiali. I also have my own ambitions and ideals, and I need your strength to achieve them. We help each other and achieve each other."

"We are not just an alliance, Leon." Ian looked up at Leon, "Leon, I think God sent me to you to protect you from growing up. Therefore, it is my mission to protect you .”

"Speaking of which, the name 'Ian' does mean 'gift from God' in the old saying." Leon thought of something and was very touched, "Then you are probably the one I have received in my life. , the best gift ever."

"The wonderful part of your life has just begun," Ian said. "From tonight onwards, your life will change completely. You will meet more wonderful people and things. There will be better ones." Gifts are waiting for you ahead."

Leon disagreed, but did not argue with Ian.

"By the way," Ian said, "I still remember that I owe you a wish."

"I thought you wouldn't mention it." Leon suddenly regained his energy and wagged his tail triumphantly. "I remember someone crying on the field and promising me anything."

"But what I said is, if you are willing to give up the fight, I will promise you anything." Ian immediately retorted, "And you obviously didn't give up."

Leon was stunned, realizing something was wrong, but it was too late.

"So," Ian raised his eyebrows slyly, "If you have any wish, you might as well say it first. I will satisfy you according to the situation, my lord."

The four words "My Lord" followed the priest's tongue rolling, and came out from his moist lips, with a playful smile, which made Leon feel hot all over, and his heart speeded up and ran wildly.

Leon lowered his eyes, gently grasped and rubbed Ian's fair and slender hands, and twisted his fingers around.The priest probably focused all his attention on making the wish, so he was unaware of this ambiguous movement.

"It's actually very simple." Leon smiled at Ian, "I hope you can spend tonight with me."
