134: persuade people

On the other side, as Melita and Joao opened their eyes.

Under the gaze of the two Legendary Experts, the officials of the Kate Kingdom immediately felt an indescribable pressure on their bodies.

Under this pressure, the clever ones quickly realized something, and the first to react was the Chancellor of the Kate Kingdom, Hulian Cardoso, who was standing at the very front of the line.

Hulian was one of the few clever people in the Kate Kingdom who was not from the royal family but held the position of Chancellor.

Although his strength was only that of a Gold Knight, he managed to become the Chancellor of the Kate Kingdom by the age of nearly fifty, which showed that his political wisdom was truly remarkable.

"Hulian Cardoso pays respects to the two Legendaries!"

Therefore, Hulian was the first to kneel on one knee.

Logically speaking, the Chancellor should be the King's confidant and a relatively loyal person.

Many people even thought that Hulian would not come to the main hall to attend the meeting held by the Legendary Experts who had destroyed the royal family.

Even if he did come, everyone thought that Hulian, this loyal subject, would curse the two unfamiliar Legendaries.

But unexpectedly, Hulian was the first Kate Kingdom official to show a state of submission.

This was clearly beyond most people's expectations, causing everyone to be stunned for a moment before hurriedly kneeling down to offer greetings.

At the same time, everyone inwardly admired Hulian immensely; they hadn't expected him to have feigned loyalty so well that he even deceived the royal family.

One must know that to be Chancellor, loyalty to the royal family is the first requirement, but looking at his current performance, there was no sign of a loyal subject.

While many admired Hulian's amazing acting skills, they were also secretly cursing him for being such an opportunistic villain.

Of course, everyone was cut from the same cloth, otherwise, they wouldn't have appeared in the main hall and be kneeling here.

Melita, at the front of the main hall, saw that the officials of the Kate Kingdom had all assumed a posture of submission, kneeling on one knee.

She felt a slight regret, as she had originally thought she could kill the chicken to warn the monkey again to deepen her deterrent power, but it turned out they were all clever people.

In truth, it was mainly because the act of Melita and Joao slaughtering ten thousand royal family members earlier was too terrifying!

It had killed off all of these people's courage, so naturally, there would be no more birds sticking their heads out.

Even if there were loyal subjects before, since their masters had all been killed, who would they be loyal to now?

Melita had summoned these people here at this moment actually just to stabilize the kingdom's situation; she did not want the kingdom to fall into chaos.

A kind smile began to spread across her face as she said softly:

"You are all pillars of the kingdom. I have matters to entrust to you next, so please rise first!"

Upon hearing this, the kingdom's more than one thousand officials immediately felt their hearts settle by more than half.

As long as they were still needed, they wouldn't die for the time being.

After everyone stood up, looking at Melita's stunning beauty and kind smile, the atmosphere in the main hall suddenly eased significantly.

Hulian, as the Chancellor of the kingdom, even gathered his courage and said:

"The two Legendaries can rest assured. No matter what it is, as long as we can do it, we will certainly do our utmost!"

Hearing this, Melita shifted her gaze to Hulian at the front of the line and smiled:

"I know you, the current Chancellor of the kingdom, Hulian.

I trust in your ability, so I will be counting on you from now on, Chancellor Hulian!"

Hearing the deeper meaning in Melita's words, Hulian was immediately overjoyed.

Because Melita addressed Hulian as Chancellor Hulian at the end, it meant that although the royal family had been destroyed, Hulian was still the Chancellor, who was above all others and below only one.

Therefore, Hulian immediately knelt on one knee, assuming a gesture of submission and gratitude:

"I will surely do my utmost and not fail the expectations of you two!"

Additionally, the fact that Melita directly stated Hulian's position also shocked everyone present.

This meant that Melita, this Legendary, actually knew about all of them.

Being remembered by a Legendary Expert was an honor, but it was also an eerie thing, causing the hair on the bodies of those present to stand on end.

Melita noticed everyone's nervousness, so she stopped wasting time and stated the purpose of this visit:

"I presume you are all very curious about the origins of myself and the Legendary beside me, as well as our purpose in coming to the Kate Kingdom.

Then I will be straightforward: after destroying the royal family, what we intend is to take control of the Kate Kingdom."

Once these words were spoken, everyone present could not help but look at each other, because they all knew through the previous battle that Melita and Joao were not humans.

If these two were to rule this country, would their future lives be guaranteed?

Although they were worried, hindered by the might of the two Legendaries, everyone ultimately only exchanged glances and did not voice the concerns in their hearts.

And Melita, as if she hadn't noticed everyone's expressions, continued:

"The Kate Kingdom has been established for three hundred years. During these three hundred years, the Kate Kingdom has been at war with the orcs in the north!

I don't know how many lives have been sacrificed for this, and all of this, besides being due to the difference in races.

Ultimately, it is because the royal family's strength is too weak!

If we rule the kingdom from now on, the orcs in the north will no longer be a threat, and the people within the kingdom will completely enjoy peace and prosperity!"

Upon hearing this, the eyes of everyone present immediately brightened significantly, because if this were true, the kingdom would surely be many times more prosperous than it is now.

However, Melita's words were not finished yet; understanding the concerns in everyone's hearts, she continued:

"I, Melita, and the Legendary Joao beside me have previously been wandering without a fixed home.

Now that we want to stay in the Kate Kingdom, this will be our new home from now on, and we will not act recklessly.

Moreover, we have a friend who is a Human Legend, and he will also arrive here soon. With him here, you should feel much more at ease, right!"

If there could really be one more Human Legend in the kingdom, they would indeed feel much more at ease.

Moreover, for Melita, as a Legendary, to explain for so long to people like them who didn't even have the strength of a Sky Knight, was already showing considerable sincerity.

From this perspective, Melita was even kinder than the previous Human Legend, Isaac.

Everyone felt Melita's sincerity, and their hearts gradually leaned toward her, believing her explanation.

After all, as a Legendary, there was no need to waste time deceiving them, and they didn't have anything on them that a Legendary would covet.

Thinking carefully, if the Kate Kingdom had three Legendaries guarding it in the future.

Then their Kate Kingdom would no longer be a bottom-tier country, even on the Continent of Gods, and they wouldn't be afraid of being bullied when going abroad; they would have more confidence.

As more and more people had this thought, more and more people expressed their submission to Melita.

Chancellor Hulian was no exception.
