NOVPUBChapter 1391: 650 Please Sir_1 Chapter 1391: 650 Please Sir_1 A beautiful little island lies one thousand five hundred miles south of South Beverley Island, against the backdrop of the mysterious land of Percival, situated at the furthest southern point on Earth, residing in an idyllic paradise untouched by the rest of the world.
The island is called Bidrnessworth Island and its inhabitants share a common faith.
Every dawn, before the sun has risen, they rise from their beds to make their way to the Divine Temple at the heart of the island.
Rain or shine, winter or summer, nothing can slow their devout pilgrimage to worship.
Legend has it that only truly devout believers can be chosen to visit Percival to pay homage to the Saintess.
Therefore, in the hearts of the residents of Bidrnessworth Island, Percival is the real holy land they long for.
Just after dawn, a drenched man crawled onto the shore, causing the guards stationed at the coastline to immediately raise their spears in caution.
...
“It’s me…” The man said weakly, “I need to see Sir Allegro Kent.”
Squatting down to observe the man more closely, the guard recognized him and exclaimed, “Victor?
Why are you in such a state?”
The difficulties Victor had encountered while getting here went without saying, “Quickly, take me to Sir Allegro Kent.
Something bad has happened.”
Seeing the urgency, the guard immediately ordered his soldiers to carry Victor to the Central Divine Temple.
The temple was heavily guarded.
The captain of the guards stationed there recognized Victor, reported his arrival, and carried him in.
Before long, a man in a golden robe appeared.
His flushed face revealed that he had just been engaged in a certain indulgence.
He had a high nose and deep-set eyes, with a circle of a mustache outlining his mouth that gave him a look of authority.
Being called away from his indulgence in the middle of the night, he wasn’t in the best of moods, “Victor, if this isn’t something urgent interrupting my sleep, you know the consequences.”
“Sir, something terrible has happened on South Beverley Island?”
Allegro Kent scoffed, “More infighting amongst you lot?
Don’t bother me with such trivial matters.
Now, get out.” As he finished speaking, he dismissively flipped his sleeve, turned, and began to leave.
“Sir.” Victor quickly intercepted him and urgently said: “A woman from Jimenez arrived.
She is very powerful and has conspired with Delan Sparrow.
They have turned all the pirates against us and our secrets are all out.”
“What?” Allegro Kent disbelievingly turned around and sharply grabbed Victor by his collar, “What nonsense are you talking?”
“Sir, if there’s a single untruth in my words, may I die a horrible death, struck down by thunder.
Delan Sparrow left the island a while ago and Kennedy said he had gone to Jimenez for revenge.
But the more I thought about it, the less right it seemed.
Half a month ago, he suddenly returned with a woman.
They put on a show and tricked me.
They came for you, sir.
There’s perhaps an even bigger conspiracy behind this.
They wanted to kill me.
I barely managed to escape and returned here to warn you.”
Allegro Kent furrowed his brow, released Victor, and let him fall onto his backside.
He quickly scrambled to kneel again.
“A person from Jimenez?
How did they get involved?” Allegro Kent was irate.
“Nonetheless, they surely won’t be able to cause too much trouble.
Nothing more than a rabble.” Allegro Kent didn’t take it to heart.
“Sir, the minds of the people from Jimenez are crafty and not to be underestimated.
Besides, the secrets of the island are of great importance and absolutely cannot progress beyond these lands.
Allow me to lead the troops and eradicate them.”
Allegro Kent nodded, “Alright, I’ll assign you a battalion.”
“Sir, please also grant me the power to mobilize the troops on South Beverley Island. 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
With my full authority, we can attack from both the inside and outside.
There will be no escape for them.”
Allegro Kent agreed.
After Victor left the room, he met the captain of the guards leading a man in a black robe.
As the figure moved, a silver scale appeared underneath the rocking cloak, shimmering under the moonlight.
Victor squinted his eyes and turned to look as they passed by.
Silver Armor Guard.
They are the personal guards of the Holy Master, every one of them embodying the symbol of a warrior with supreme martial prowess.
All men aspire to join their ranks.
Even Victor wasn’t an exception.
Unfortunately, he was too inadequate and didn’t qualify.
Victor thought about how he had endured countless hardships to reach his current position.
With a bit more effort, he could definitely gain entrance to the Holy Temple – that is where the center of power lay.
As he left holding the token, he wondered why the Silver Armor Guard would visit Allegro Kent at this hour.
