254: When I am invincible

Chapter 254: When I Am Invincible Throughout the World

Regardless of the continent or country.

As long as one becomes the Chairman of a branch of the Adventurers Guild, they will inevitably be connected to the local ruling class.

This is a truth that has remained unchanged for millions of years!

After all, it is well known that the Adventurers Guild implements a system of 'local representative autonomy, headquarters coordinated management'.

To put it bluntly, although every branch Chairman takes orders from the headquarters, they are all in league with the local rulers.

Chairman Ulla of Bison Territory was personally supported by Duke Bison...

Chairman Adolf of Emilia Imperial Capital is the most loyal supporter of the Royal Family...

As for Fama, as the Chairman of Toya Imperial Capital, his relationship with the Toya Royal Family is also very close.

In fact, Fama is even Victoria's imperial uncle; although the bloodline is somewhat distant, it doesn't prevent him from being a member of the Royal Family.

In this high-martial world, magic practitioners are the biggest unstable factor!

The strongest among them can easily threaten national security, and those high-level and God-rank area-of-effect magic can destroy an entire city in minutes.

Coincidentally, the Adventurers Guild is an organization specifically managing magic practitioners. With a large number of powerful individuals gathered together, which ruler could possibly sleep soundly?

The Adventurers Guild also knows this, which is why they delegate power to local autonomy, allowing the guild's branches to become tools of governance.

This way, a 'win-win-win' situation is formed.

Local rulers don't have to be on edge; they can use the guild to manage magic practitioners and maintain long-term stability and peace in society.

The guild receives support from rulers all over the world, allowing it to expand and become a massive superpower.

Magic practitioners are no longer dangerous unemployed wanderers; they can register as adventurers, form teams, and earn money by completing quests.

This way, everyone is happy.

Fama swore allegiance to the Toya Royal Family long ago; otherwise, he would not have his current status.

What's more, all of Fama's relatives, friends, and properties are in the Toya Empire, right in the Toya Imperial Capital, and he himself possesses Royal Family bloodline.

This is also why Victoria is so at ease with Fama.

"Then I thank Count Grudia for his kindness," Victoria said with a radiant smile, adding, "I will ride a feather beast with Chairman Fama!"

Hearing this, Dick nodded lightly, then glanced at the nearly hundred Toya soldiers behind Victoria, and said slowly, "There is limited space on the White Feather Beast, I'm afraid..."

"It's fine, I can take this ride alone. With the protection of Chairman Fama, it's better than a thousand troops!"

Victoria's words were not an exaggeration; Fama's terrifying strength as a Level 71 Mage was indeed full of security.

"Princess, please come with me."

Fama didn't say much; instead, he bowed and gestured, leading Victoria to board the White Feather Beast first.

However, Fama couldn't understand why Dick would let Victoria hitch a ride. From Amyria's perspective, Dick shouldn't have done this.

Could it be that Dick is a true gentleman, that he is abiding by the reparations treaty between the two countries and genuinely wants to send Victoria back home?

No! Absolutely impossible!

This despicable, shameless young man, full of schemes, could never have good intentions.

Thinking this, Fama immediately sent a voice message to Dick, warning, "Don't you have any bad intentions! Since I'm accompanying her, the Princess's safety cannot be compromised!"

No matter what, he has now become Victoria's bodyguard; she absolutely cannot die on the White Feather Beast, or his reputation will be completely ruined.

"Relax, Lord Fama, I guarantee I will get Victoria back to the Toya Empire safely, after all, we've paid so much money..."

Listening to Dick's casual reply, Fama didn't believe him and directly interrupted, "After we depart later, you need to come to my room, and we will sign a Magic Contract!"

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you. You can also draft the contract content."

Looking at the extremely suspicious Fama, Dick couldn't help but gently shake his head. What bad intentions could a young boy like him possibly have?

Next, Mina, Alice, and Xiao Nai said goodbye to Elizabeth in turn. They had already become good friends during the Underground City Championship.

When it was Cecilia's turn, Elizabeth's eyes were uncharacteristically red; she was most reluctant to part with the sister who had grown up with her since childhood.

When Cecilia was by her side every day in the past, Elizabeth always found her annoying, constantly nagging about various etiquette rules.

But when Cecilia completely left, Elizabeth was extremely unaccustomed to it. Even looking up at a forty-five-degree angle, tears couldn't stop overflowing.

"You, after you return from the Eternal Frost Forest, you must come see me. You are not allowed to go directly to the Central Continent!"

"Your Majesty, I..."

"Listen, Cecilia, you are no longer my attendant, so this is not a command, but a request from a friend."

Hearing this, Cecilia was silent for a moment, then quickly sighed and nodded, saying, "I... understand, Elizabeth, I will come back to see you."

Cecilia called Elizabeth by her name for the first time, instead of Your Majesty.

This meant that the two were no longer in a superior-subordinate relationship, but close friends.

But at the same time, this also meant that Cecilia could lie; she was only honest with Your Majesty, not with Elizabeth.

Parting is painful; one such experience is enough.

Cecilia did not want to see Elizabeth cry a second time.

Therefore, after returning from the Eternal Frost Forest, she would not return to the Royal Capital, and would not see Elizabeth again.

Unless one day, Dick finds a way to break the tragic Fate of the Witch.

Unless one day, she will no longer bring disaster to Elizabeth and the Aimiya Empire.

By then, Cecilia will return to Elizabeth's side without hesitation and restore their master-servant relationship.

Behind her, Dick watched silently with an expressionless face. He didn't need mind-reading to know what Cecilia was thinking.

However, she is destined to be disappointed.

Once a soul contract is signed, if she is his slave for a day, she is his slave for life!

After several twists and turns, he finally tricked Cecilia into signing the contract of servitude. Dick would never easily let her leave.

Unless one day, he becomes so powerful that he can control everything without relying on the soul contract.

In a sense, Dick did not lie. Only by becoming the strongest can he perhaps break the tragic Fate of the Witch.

But how long will it take to become the strongest?

In his previous ninety-nine lives, Dick's fastest record for becoming a max-level practitioner was only ten years.

However, in this life, Dick's profession is Demon King, not one of the usual nine professions, so he is also unsure how long it will take to reach max level.

Furthermore, does reaching max level necessarily mean being invincible?

In his previous ninety-nine lives, he was a max-level practitioner in over ninety of them, yet he still died in various ways?

He hopes that the max-level Demon King of this life can bring a truly invincible experience.
