Chapter 366: Chapter 361: Nationwide Broadcast Chapter 366: Chapter 361: Nationwide Broadcast “This time, His Majesty Belradin has invited many legendary big figures to attend the ceremony. We can enter the Royal Palace as part of our father’s family, but considering our father’s rank, we probably won’t even get a chance to see the Golden Dragon Archduke,”
Andre analyzed with a sigh, ruthlessly deflating his sister’s infatuated heart. When the siblings rib each other, their intelligence seems to double.

“You shut up,” Hearing her own brother’s analysis, Dilia screamed in embarrassment. Even if she couldn’t see, couldn’t she at least fantasize?

“Lydia, Anderson, my rank is too low, and I apologize for not giving you the chance to see the ruling Archduke,” Count DeWitt, drawn over by their quarrelling voices, heard his children’s words and his face darkened instantly.

“Father!” Anderson immediately jumped up from the bed upon seeing his stern father.

“You have ten minutes to get ready,” Count DeWitt said curtly, “I am just a minor noble, and we need to enter the Royal Palace well before the ceremony begins.”

Ten minutes later, noble siblings Anderson and Lydia, dressed in formal clothes but looking somewhat unkempt, climbed onto a carriage pulled by two griffins along with their father.

“Lydia, help your brother straighten his clothes.” During the low-altitude flight of the carriage, DeWitt frowned at his bleary-eyed son.

“Oh,” Hearing her father’s order, the beautifully made-up and elegantly dressed young lady complied reluctantly. She began fixing her brother despite her reluctance – they are a unit in the public eye, and if her brother lost face, she would be ridiculed as well.

“Hey, isn’t this the crest of the Claude Clan?” Someone caringly feigned surprise above their carriage, “Lydia, are you in there?”

Hearing her name being called, the young lady looked out of the carriage window and saw a lion-dragon carriage, pulled by a dragon lion, flying parallel to them at an altitude five to six meters higher.

On this dragon carriage, another girl, dressed in an off-shoulder court dress, looked down from a higher position. With great satisfaction, she looked down at the young lady poking out her head, and adopted a tone of feigned surprise.

“Ah, Lydia, why is your carriage flying so low? It’s such a strain to talk to you while looking down. I had intended to chat with you, but never mind, I’ll take my leave.”

Before Lydia, whose face had turned ugly, could respond, the coquettish noble girl retracted herself into the carriage. The lion-dragon pulling the carriage roared, its wings flapping as it rapidly increased its distance from the griffin carriage. One could still faintly hear laughter coming from the dragon carriage.

“See that? That’s the noble lady you’ve been so infatuated with!” After unjustly bearing someone else’s anger, the young lady closed the carriage window and vented her anger at her brother.

“This is the Royal Capital, it’s only natural to be ridiculed by others,” Count DeWitt, who had been sitting upright and meditating, opened his eyes and spoke expressionlessly, “You both have to be prepared mentally.”

Having said so, under his robe sleeve, his hands had clenched into fists, turning white. No normal father could stay indifferent seeing his daughter get humiliated.

“Sister, wait and see. There will come a day when the carriage of our Claude Clan will fly above their dragon carriage, just like earlier. Then, you can look down at them as you speak.”

Anderson, who had been used like a punching bag by his sister, didn’t get angry. Instead, he softly consoled his sister. They were a unit in the public eye, sharing glory and ridicule. Being as vain as every young person, Anderson set a grand goal for himself due to this vanity.

“Haha, then you’ll have to work hard!” Hearing her brother’s words, the young lady laughed, “If you want our carriage to fly superior to theirs, you’ll have to achieve a Duke’s rank. The easiest way – strive hard to break through to legend, then you can receive a pardon… sorry, an ennoblement from the Grand Duke.”

According to the rules of the Lockman Kingdom, all nobles had the right to fly in the city skies, avoiding conflicts with commoners. However, there were strict restrictions on the altitude at which one could fly in the city. It was determined by your noble rank.

“I will certainly become a Duke.” Just fourteen, Anderson clenched his fist and a thick, combative red aura appeared above it. He was also a gifted prodigy with an exceptional talent for cultivation, but had been somewhat lazy in his past training.

Soon, the carriage pulled by four strong and majestic griffins arrived above the Royal Palace. The coachman conscientiously lowered the carriage and parked it under the guidance of the palace guards.

“There are so many people!” After the family of three alighted from the carriage, a eunuch came forward to greet them and led them into a grand hall in the palace, where a space magic array had already been activated to expand the room. As soon as they entered, they were astonished by the bustling crowd before their eyes.

“Count DeWitt, His Majesty has invited all nobles of Count rank and above from across the country, which is why there are so many people.” Seeing the surprise in the eyes of the family, the eunuch repeated the words he didn’t know how many times he had already said.

“So the lowest rank here is a Count?”

“Yes.”

“Nobles below the level of Viscount don’t even qualify to attend the banquet?”

“They can watch the synchronously broadcasted magical images in their own territories which wouldn’t be much different from attending in person.” The eunuch explained with a composed face.

“Broadcasting of Magical Images synchronously?” Lydia was surprised as she covered her small mouth, this was a magic technology that she had heard only empires on the main continent could popularize. If a kingdom wanted to obtain this, it was marked with a hefty price. Moreover, due to the basic magic infrastructure being inferior to those in the empire, it was challenging to popularize it like them.

“Not only can the nobles who didn’t receive an invitation watch the broadcast, but the common folk living in the cities of the kingdom can view this grand ceremony as well,” said the eunuch, barely suppressing a triumphant tone,” His Majesty has dispatched a large number of mages who have set up magic light screens in all our cities for a live broadcast.”

Just as the Count and his family were awed by King Belradin’s grandeur, the ground suddenly began to shake.

Simultaneously in the spacious hall, screens of light rose from all sides, displaying recorded images that were astonishing.

One after another, the Giants clad in armor and wielding sharp weapons, their skin as white as snow, marched in regular steps into the bustling city under the morning glow…
