Chapter 185: - The Baron of Slumdon


    ?


    The camera capturing the moment showed Broken and Princess Alora exchanging nces, igniting a flurry of intense reactions across the inte.


    "This fool, Broken, actually has the audacity to flirt with Princess Alora at a time like this!"


    "Just look at the way he''s staring at Princess Alora. I can barely contain my rage!"


    "I wish I could be in Broken''s ce, standing so close to the beauty of Princess Alora."


    "I''m so envious of this guy. He''s gotten to see Princess Alora up close."


    "I''m sure he''s used up his entire lifetime''s fortune. After this, he''ll be gued by bad luck until the day he dies."


    "Is it possible that Broken is the luckiest yer in Immortal Legacy?"


    "Broken has truly struck it rich in an instant! The rewards he''s getting are incredible."


    "Damn, I wish I had that kind of luck too. Is it possible to get rich from a game?"


    "Princess Alora... I Love You!"


    Meanwhile, on the stage, King Alorik continued his address.


    "Broken, you have achieved great sess in thepetition. Your victory is a true testament to your hard work and dedication. As the King of the Dissidia Kingdom, I can think of no better way to celebrate your sess than to grant you and of your own, Slumdon Town, and to make you its lord."


    Broken was overwhelmed with emotion. He had never expected such an incredible reward. And? A lord?! Could this mean he would have the opportunity to engage in city-building? The possibilities raced through his mind. Struggling to contain his excitement, he bowed his head in deep respect.


    "Your Majesty," he said, his voice shaking with emotion. "This is far more than I could have ever hoped for. I am deeply grateful for your generosity."


    The King smiled and continued, "Your sess in thepetition has been so extraordinary that I feelpelled to bestow upon you the title of Baron. You are now Baron of Slumdon, and the entire kingdom is proud of you."


    The entire area erupted in a mixture of cheers, shock, jealousy, and apuse at the King''s promation.


    [Congrattions to Broken, the Baron of Slumdon! You have achieved the remarkable feat of bing the first yer to be the lord of your ownnd in the Dissidia Kingdom - an impressive aplishment worthy of a new title - The All-Conquering Lord of Slumdon! May your reign be long and prosperous.]


    [Upon receiving this achievement, you are granted ess to the Land Management feature. This will enable you to effectively manage thend that you already own. Congrattions! You are well on your way to bing a kingdom builder, and for now, you are able to begin your own town-building journey.]


    Broken was stunned as he read the notifications, his mouth agape in disbelief. The astonishing reward he had received was far beyond anything he had ever imagined-a town of his own within this magnificent kingdom!


    "Now I have my own town in this kingdom? This is really far from what I expected," he murmured quietly to himself, still trying to fathom the enormity of the prize bestowed upon him.


    An expectant hush fell across the grand area as King Alorik paused for a moment. "And now, I will grant you the main reward for your winnings," he intoned.


    And that was not the final reward yet!


    "Damn, I''m envious!" Maylock eximed with a chuckle from his seat among the spectators.


    "He really robbed the King today, khi khi khi..." Goldrich responded.


    Jovina chimed in, "Man, the rewards are truly exceptional. Can anyone summarize what Broken has received so far, besides the material rewards? Hahaha... I always had a feeling that Broken was a remarkable ally."


    Elincia nodded and added, "The Legendary-grade Spear is certainly another powerful weapon for Broken to wield. And then there''s the gold and materials, which alone are incredibly valuable."


    "Yup, hahaha," Booba agreed. "Broken really went from rags to riches in an instant, hahaha." Goldrich continued, "I bet he also earned a bunch of achievements, new titles, and new abilities. Who knows just how extraordinary his gains have been?"


    Maylock interjected, "And now, and grant. All this, acquired as a single yer-not a guild!"


    Elincia smiled, "That was surely the right decision to bring him to our side, right?"


    Melliandra, who had remained silent among them, finally spoke up, "Still, he''s an asshole. He took my ring."


    "You dropped it, so it''s fair game if he picked it up, shorty, haha," Booba retorted.


    "Shut up, low-level!" Melliandra shot back.


    But the group soon noticed the absence of Freya as they scanned the crowd.


    "Hi, Ivana," Elincia called out to her.


    "Yes, Elincia?" Ivana responded with a smile.


    "Why haven''t I seen Freya here? Isn''t this a significant moment?" Elincia asked.


    Ivana paused for a moment, then giggled before responding, "Freya mentioned something about business; I don''t know the details, but I''m sure she''ll be here soon."


    "So... Freya might be his assistant out there. She was the one who made the deal about the car shop," Maylockmented casually.


    "Nice conclusion, Mr. Detective," Elincia said, turning her attention back to the stage.


    ***


    Marco, the CEO of the Golden Age Company, sighed as he reviewed the final results of the grandpetition in the Dissidia Kingdom.


    "I''ve never seen a yer receive this many rewards at once, except for him," he remarked with a rxed smile.


    Several key figures from thepany sat around a room with arge screen disying the


    results.


    One of themmented, "He even earned more than my monthly sry."


    "But your share in the stocks is stillrger, hahaha... Let''s just be happy about the remarkable achievement this yer has achieved."


    Another chimed in, "Will this yer be able to utilize all the features he''s been granted effectively? I mean, considering his background and the town management aspect, I doubt it


    will end well."


    "But he is close to the Ass Guild, right? I''m sure he can leverage his connections with them to build the town properly. This could also be a great opportunity to showcase more of the game''s features. More yers will strive to ownnd themselves."


    "I''m not sure the Ass Guild will have time for town building. They''re busy preparing to counter the opposing faction that doesn''t want Alora to ascend the throne."


    Their conversation revolved around whether Broken would be able to make full use of thend management feature he had just unlocked. This was the first time a yer had ess to


    such a feature.


    One of them reasserted, "You all know that Broken achieved all of this in a very short time. Is the game still bnced when a yer like him has ess to such significant advantages? I mean, his blessings, his two legendary weapons, and now thend itself. What will other top


    yers think?"


    Marco stood and faced the others. "Whether Broken will survive or not depends on his decisions and future actions. But one thing I''m certain of is that the game will no longer


    remain the same with his presence."


    "Should we hold him back a bit?"n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    Marco quickly responded, "The question is, could we? The answer is no! We don''t have the capability to do that!"
