The young dragon Lucia had never seen the military strength of the Kloss Kingdom, but she did not believe that the Saint Blue Kingdom would be inferior to the Kloss Kingdom in military matters.

The Saint Blue Kingdom not only possesses Wyvern Legion, but also has a pact with the pure-blooded Bronze Dragon Melbourne, giving it a significant military advantage. Before she became the Saint Blue Kingdom King, Saint Blue had risen from a duchy to a kingdom.

In just a few months, they annexed the Red Maple Kingdom.

Would an army that has just experienced war be weak in military strength?

Not to mention that Saint Blue also introduced Source Power Technology into the military.

The dragons of the Dragon Island Patrol Team are fully equipped with Source Power Tech Armor, and some of the Saint Blue's troops are also equipped with Source Power Tech Armor and Source Energy skeletons. In any case, Saint Blue is definitely stronger in terms of military strength.

The Kloss Kingdom may not be weak either, but it is definitely not as strong as Saint Blue.

"King of the Kingdom... Are you really the King of the Kingdom?" Mills was a little skeptical that Lucia was the King of the Kingdom. Her age, appearance, and mindset didn't seem like those of a king at all.

If she were the real queen, there's a high chance she'd be sidelined by powerful ministers and nobles.

Perhaps Lucia, who calls herself queen, has actually been sidelined by powerful ministers?

Is she now a wandering princess, gathering strength and seeking an opportunity to eliminate powerful ministers?

wrong.

A Queen who has been sidelined and driven out of the kingdom by a powerful minister could not possibly be like this; he saw no trace of sorrow in Lucia.

"Yes, so you shouldn't call me Your Highness, you should call me Her Lucia."

"."

Julianna, Nolan, Lambert, Owen, Phyllis, and Morgan were once again dumbfounded.

What? Lucia not only wants to be an empress, but also the queen of a kingdom?

Could it be that she really is the queen of some kingdom? They couldn't tell at all, and even if she said she was the queen, they wouldn't believe her at all.

Because Lucia simply doesn't possess the aura or demeanor of a king.

Dragon Knight Hella glanced at Lucia. To be honest, he had no idea that the girl he followed was a liar who loved to boast, or an extremely low-key person with a background that was far more powerful than he had ever imagined.

The strength she just displayed makes her seem like a low-key, mysterious, and formidable figure.

But her appearance, temperament, and behavior make it really hard for people to accept what she says.

If Lucia is truly the king, then becoming a follower of the king is not too shameful.

"I'm sorry, I really can't associate you with a king of a country."

"It's alright, Mills, you do me a favor, I'll save your life, and I don't owe you anything."

"You hate me that much?"

"I don't dislike you, nor do I like you. I have no particular feelings for you. Alright, this matter should end here. Mills, don't make things difficult for Dragon Knight Hella's family."

"Apart from Claudia, I have no family in the Kloss Kingdom."

"Oh? Oh, I'm sorry."

"Fine."

Could someone with this personality really be an emperor? She's not ruthless, and she seems to lack any sense of vigilance. Is this young woman truly a queen?

"Lucia Highness, do you think I have a chance to become the King of the Kloss Kingdom?"

"Before asking this question, you should first ask yourself whether you can ensure that the people of the Kloss Kingdom are well-fed and clothed, and whether you can make the Kloss Kingdom prosper under your rule."

"."

Mills remained silent.

He never thought about those two points; his focus had always been on the kingdom's nobles and lords.

He never truly cared about ordinary people.

"You say you are the king. Have you achieved these two things?"

The young dragon grinned, raised his right hand, and made a pinching gesture. "Easy to handle. My kingdom has no slaves. Everyone is well-fed and clothed, and there is land to cultivate. When children reach school age, they can go to school to study, and the kind that doesn't charge tuition."

As for its flourishing state, my kingdom has just annexed another kingdom, more than tripling its territory. Therefore, I can proudly tell you that I am a competent king, and under my rule, the country has seen significant improvement in every aspect.

Hey, the development of the Saint Blue Kingdom is indeed as she described.

The kingdom is thriving, so it's not unreasonable to give some credit to her, the second Queen, right? Therefore, it's also reasonable for her to show off her "achievements," isn't it?

"No slaves?!"

"Free schooling for school-age children?!"

Everyone present was stunned.

Does this mean the abolition of slavery?

Would the nobles and lords agree to a kingdom without slaves?

"Would the kingdom's nobles and lords agree to abolish slavery?" Mills asked, voicing his doubts.

"Yes, I agree. Nobles and lords who disagree have been swept into the trash can."

These words were spoken by Ticia, who was responsible for carrying out the decrees that Lance occasionally issued.

Lance once said something that stuck with her, "Treat people as people."

"So domineering? Aren't you afraid the nobles and lords will rebel?"

"Saint Blue can sweep away all opposing forces."

"If what you say is true, then I really want to visit your kingdom."

Julianna smiled. The kingdom Lucia described was exactly the kind of country she dreamed of. If such a kingdom really existed, she would love to go and see it.

After leaving the territory of the Dragon Knight Hella, the Saint Blue Kingdom and others arrived at the Water Kingdom. She wanted to inquire and see if such a kingdom really existed.

If a kingdom named with the word "holy" really existed, she should be able to find out.

"You can go and explore when you have time, but the travel expenses might be quite high, so you'll need to save up some money. Alright, get ready to face the enemies from outside the domain."

Besides Hela, the Dragon Knight Hella, there are also pirates outside. You'll have to deal with the pirates yourselves; I'm going now.

See you again someday.

Lucia waved to Mills, Julianna, and Nolan, then had the Dragon Knight Hella escort them out of the area.

A blinding light appeared at the same time as the sound of waves.

Mills, Julianna, Nolan, and the others opened their eyes and found themselves still in the same carriage they had been in before.

Goodbye, everyone, and best of luck.

Mills, Julianna, and the others looked up and saw Lucia standing on the head of the Wyvern Claudia, bidding them farewell.

Dragon Knight Hella, stood on the back of the dragon, like a loyal and dutiful guardian.

Goodbye, Lucia.

"Goodbye."

"Wait, Lucia, now that we've arrived at the Water Kingdom, where's your next stop?"

"Holy Light Empire"

As the last word fell, the Wyvern Claudia carried the young dragon toward the Water Kingdom.

As for the crisis that Mills, Julianna, and the others will face next, that's up to them to decide.

"The Holy Light Empire." Mills repeated the young dragon's words, then turned to look at Lambert, Owen, Morgan, and Phyllis beside him. "Please sink the Pirate Ship. It's time to have a good talk with my big brother."

"Are you planning to confront your brother?"

"To be precise, I no longer intend to be the king of the Kloss Kingdom. I want to go to the Holy Light Empire Holy Light Empire as the prince of the Kloss Kingdom and witness its prosperity and power."

I won't compete with my elder brother for the throne; I suppose he wouldn't mind spending some money to support such a well-behaved younger brother as me?

???

What? You're not going to fight for the throne anymore?

"You've really fallen for Lucia?"

"You're overthinking it. I just want to go to the Holy Light Empire and see how Lucia became Holy Light Empire emperor."

"???"

Lucia, the emperor of the Holy Light Empire? No, Mills means Lucia might be the Imperial Daughter of the Holy Light Empire? "Judging from your expressions, you should understand what I mean. Lucia said she wants to become an emperor, and her ultimate destination is the Holy Light Empire. If what she said is true, then she is very likely the Imperial Daughter of the Holy Light Empire. She returned to the Holy Light Empire Holy Light Empire to become its emperor."

"You know what, it's actually possible."

"Alright, that will reduce the pressure on us a lot. But you'll have to pay for the travel expenses to the Holy Light Empire with you."

"Good."

Several tens of minutes later, the swaggering Pirate Ship, billowing black smoke and flying a white flag, quickly disappeared from the sea.

Having weathered the crisis, Mills and his companions switched to another carriage. That evening, Mills took the initiative to contact his older brother and talked with him alone for a very long time.

A few days later, the train arrived at the capital station of the Water Kingdom on time.

After Mills, Julianna, and the others got off the bus, they went to the library of the Water Kingdom, hoping to find out if there was such a kingdom as Saint Blue.

They spent three days in the library of the floating capital, but could not find a kingdom called Saint Blue.

On the fourth day, Mills was invited to the palace by the royal family of the Water Kingdom.

While chatting with the royal family of the Water Kingdom, he asked the old king of the Water Kingdom if he had ever heard of the Saint Blue Kingdom.

The old king of the Water Kingdom shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of such a country.

At the very least, there is no kingdom called Saint Blue around the Water Kingdom.

The strongest empire in the Holy Light Domain is the Holy Light Empire.

If there really were a kingdom called Saint Blue, the Holy Light Empire would definitely order the Saint Blue Kingdom to change its name.

There's no way around it; the Holy Light Empire is the strongest empire in the Holy Light Domain, bar none.

The royal family of the Holy Light Empire is even more revered as the "Light Royal Family".

Even the old king of the Water Kingdom had never heard of the Saint Blue Kingdom, so Mills gave up on his idea of browsing the royal library.

Perhaps only by reaching the Holy Light Empire can we learn some information related to the [Saint Blue Kingdom].

After spending ten days in the Water Kingdom, on the eleventh day, Mills led Julianna, Lambert, Nolan, and the others away from the Water Kingdom, boarding a Source Power Airship and heading to the Holy Light Empire.

The Water Kingdom's energy airships cannot reach the Holy Light Empire directly; they need to transfer three times to reach Holy Light Empire.

"You mean Lucia doesn't even exist in the Holy Light Empire?"

On the airship, Mills asked Julianna how many people were in their group.

"If Lucia hadn't been sightseeing in the Water Kingdom, we should have arrived in the Holy Light Empire by now."

"Do you think Lucia will be surprised to see us in the Holy Light Empire?"

"You should consider how we should address Lucia if she were truly Imperial Daughter of the Holy Light Empire."

"Given the power of the Holy Light Empire, do you think it's possible that they could arbitrarily assign a kingdom to Lucia and let her experience what it's like to be a king?"

"You know what, you really think that's possible! After all, that's the Holy Light Empire, a place where even the king doesn't want to return to his kingdom. How prosperous must that place be to make a king of a country willing to stay there?"

Mills smiled, "I don't know, it's my first time there too. When I arrived in the capital of the Holy Light Empire, my reaction was probably similar to that of a country bumpkin entering the capital for the first time."

My good older brother said, "When you get to the Holy Light Empire, don't think of yourself as a prince. In the Holy Light Empire, a prince might not be as good as a Holy Light Empire."

Even an insignificant viscount might possess the power to destroy a kingdom.

Julianna, Lambert, Nolan, Owen, and the others all showed expressions of astonishment upon hearing this.

Is this some kind of exaggerated claim? Is the Holy Light Empire really that powerful? That a mere viscount can so easily destroy a kingdom? Isn't that a bit too much?

"Once we arrive in the capital of the Holy Light Empire, we should try to keep a low profile."

"."

The poor child was probably devastated by Lucia's identity.

The entrance to the eastern city gate of the Holy Light Empire's capital.

The young dragon Lucia tilted her head back, staring blankly at the city gate that shimmered with a faint light before her.

The three large East Saint Gate, shimmering golden characters resembled three runes imbued with strange energy, each larger than the normal city gate entrances of other kingdoms.

How big is the entrance to this city gate?

The young dragon thought for a moment and estimated that it was about the same size and height as the Bronze Dragon Melbourne.

Whether the Bronze Dragon enters Melbourne horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, it can easily enter the city.

In his dragon form, Lance was unable to pass through the city gates of the Holy Light Empire's capital.

Lance's dragon body was too big.

Looking up, the young dragon saw that half of the capital city was partially hidden in the clouds.

The capital of the Holy Light Empire is almost comparable in size to that of a kingdom with a relatively small territory.

An imperial capital has been divided into two parts? One part is on the ground, and the other part is floating in the void? Damn it, her Farolyn Empire... seems not as strong as the Holy Light Empire.

Dragon Knight Hella behind the young dragon, was also shocked by the city gate of the Holy Light Empire. The city gate was not built of ordinary bricks and stones, but was built with a special mineral.

The three gleaming golden characters on the city gate also contain a powerful energy.

Hmm. The intensity of the energy is not as great as the lightning power that Lady Lucia released in his domain that day.

The city walls and gates that had impressed him were nothing compared to Lady Lucia.

Lady Lucia only needs to release a little bit of the thunder power from the Lightning Hammer to blast down the seemingly indestructible city wall in his eyes.

Lady Lucia's disguise was so convincing. If her identity hadn't been exposed in his territory some time ago, he wouldn't have believed that this seemingly simple-minded girl could actually be Imperial Daughter of the Holy Light Empire.

Before following Lucia, he felt it was an honor for Lucia to become Lucia follower.

Now it seems that becoming Lucia's follower means he has a high chance of dying in battle. Among those who are loyal to the Holy Light Royal Family, there are definitely no shortage of powerful individuals who have opened up their own domains!
