On this day, the residents living above Ravrud were extremely excited, not only because of the sudden increase in tourists on the island, but also because today, the new king was about to ascend the throne. The cheerful children were running around, and the old people looked at the cheerful children with a sense of happiness in their eyes. The young and strong young man was working in the workshop, and the women were naturally doing housework at home. The rich and nobles were in the palace, waiting for the summons of the elders.
This is a very important rift. In this important rift, it is naturally a time when all forces in all directions are very active.
At noon, people stopped their work and gathered on the square before the palace, waiting for the most important moment to come. Ten days ago, they experienced the sadness brought by the death of the previous king; and now, just today, everything will be different. They will witness the ascension of the new king, a scenic spot once every thousand years!
On the open-air platform of the palace, after the heavy palace gate opened, the rich nobles walked out before the elders, stood on both sides, waiting for the elders to appear. This situation naturally made the people even more excited, because everyone knows that the new king is about to be born!
Finally, the heavy palace gate was opened again, and the heavy and loud sound echoed in the sudden quiet square. Such sounds showed how sacred and brilliant everything about to happen was. When the palace gate was opened, ten elders walked out slowly and stood on both sides, like soldiers, blocking the rich and nobles behind them. In this great empire, there was only one person who could make the elders a soldier.
It was the last elder's turn. He was older and his speed was slower than the previous ten elders. It was not because he was older than those ten elders, but because he was holding a baby in his arms, a baby who was about to become the dominant of this era in the next thousand years!
(If nothing happened afterwards…)
The eleventh elder held the baby and slowly walked to the front of the platform. The ten elders who had just been arranged on both sides then came here and surrounded the elders holding the baby. The rich nobles even knelt down first and looked up at the child in the elder's arms.
Finally, the most exciting moment is coming!
The elder held the baby on his hands, then slowly raised it up and over his head. The elder looked at the silent people under the palace, who were full of anticipation in his eyes. Then he raised his head and looked at the children who were held on his hands and bathed in the midday sun. He took a deep breath, and then roared out the name of the new king in an old voice.
"Ravrud Cohen!"
...
The echo is loud!
The echoes kept ringing in all directions, as if they were to pour this name into everyone's mind. On the silent square, people kept listening to the echoes, and fanaticism gradually appeared in their eyes.
"Corn!"
Finally, on the silent square, when the echoes dissipated, someone couldn't bear the loud shouting. Following that, it was like a stone thrown into the calm lake. In every corner of the square, there were people shouting loudly, echoing the name of the world's master who should belong to the future.
"Corn!"
"Corn!"
"Corn!"
...
The shouts all show people’s expectations and trust for the new king!
After the roars gradually subsided, the sun in the middle had already set too far west. Looking at the square that was gradually calming down, the elders stretched their hands forward at the same time, which was like a signal to someone.
"Dong!Dong!Dong!..."
It was like the dull drumsticks hitting the giant drum. On the square, the crowd split on both sides, leaving a wide enough avenue in the middle. A black dot gradually appeared on the sea in the distance, and then people could see it as a boat. On the square, there was no idea when a giant appeared.
"Dong!Dong!Dong!..."
The sound is more dull and louder now. People look at the guardian of Ravrud as if they are paying homage to the gods. For many years, this huge guy has been paying attention to this island. For many years, this guy has been silently protecting everything. The giant's life is only a few hundred years, but it is not wrong. However, this guy has a lifespan compared to the new king.
The person standing on the square looked towards the port and saw a larger figure. It was the demon Oz, and in front of the demon, there was a giant ship dragged by the demon. How could the people living in Ravrud not recognize that giant ship?
Pluto...
Finally, before the giant arrived at the palace, with his height, his forehead could just touch the platform in the palace. The elder looked at the giant, then pulled up the new king's small hand and gently tapped the giant's forehead. Suddenly, a green flying dragon flew out from the palace, which was a thousand-year-old dragon, a symbol of the royal family.
After that, the giant left, and he slowly retreated until he retreated to the port, until he disappeared into the distance with the huge ship, along with the demons and the flying dragon. The one who led him was the thousand-year-old dragon hovering in the air. They disappeared together, and no one knew where they went.
Everything should have returned to peace, everything should have been going on as usual. However, what happened later was not something that people now could predict, and those were all about the future.

"What I asked was the war that covered the sky and almost destroyed the world." I looked at Ace and asked in surprise, "But why, what you told me was the scene that appeared repeatedly in my dreams countless times?"
"That's your throne ceremony, brother." Ace said softly, saying the answer that didn't surprise me. Thinking of the warship island, the giant on the warship island, the lost thousand-year-old dragon on the warship island, and the giant's mouth, the demon who moved the entire warship to the East China Sea with one person's strength, is probably the demon Oz, who wouldn't be wrong?
"But..." I looked at Ace and insisted, "You haven't told me that war that almost destroyed the world."
"I've gone back on my word, brother, I don't want to continue." Ace said so, turning back to where he had sat before, "Didn't that war come from your ancestors, the first king of Ravrud?"
Looking at Ace who was no longer willing to continue talking, I waved my hand and signaled to my friends that it's time to leave. I don't understand why Ace was unwilling to continue talking, but I can wait. I've been waiting for a thousand years. Can't I wait for a while?
I brought my friends to the place where I fell before, looked up and saw that above my head was a sinkhole made by Tenghu Yixiao, which went straight to the first floor. After squatting down and putting my hands on the ground, I shouted loudly, "Ground protrusion!" A platform slowly formed on the ground, like a cylinder, lifting us directly to the first floor of the city. Looking at the empty corridor in the first floor, the prisoners quietly trapped in the cage, I couldn't feel any interest in my heart. Unintentionally, I saw the blood-drinking on my waist, and the blood-red blade had reappeared. It seemed that Magellan should have lost consciousness for the time being.
"Walk."
As I whispered, I took my friends away from here and left this advancing city that should have brought me great surprises.
"Corn, what are you going to do next?" Sean came to me and asked softly.
"I don't know," I responded to Sean as I walked forward, "Perhaps we should go back to the tavern of Meiji and disappear in front of the world for a while."
