I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 764 - 471: Sudden Change at the Banquet

’She used the Mysterious Objects?’

Chen Lun guessed quietly.

Because he did not have specific information, he also could not know what exactly Princess Anna had done.

At this moment, Anna, with a blank expression, picked up the elegant red wine bottle, poured herself half a glass, and then filled another glass and pushed it toward Prince Dazlert.

"Happy birthday, brother,"

Although it was a congratulatory remark, her tone sounded unusually calm.

"Cheers to you."

"Oh, thank you, my dear Anna."

Prince Dazlert responded with a slightly surprised smile, and thanked his sister.

He conveniently lifted the glass Anna had pushed toward him, intending to drink it in one go, then play around with the cross sword in his hand.

However, as the rim of the glass just touched his lips, two figures walked over, interrupting the scene.

"Your Highness, on behalf of the Moon Church, I offer our heartfelt blessings, may the light forever accompany you..."

An elderly woman dressed in a black robe removed her hood, revealing speckled white hair, and with a calm expression on her wrinkled face, she softly spoke to Dazlert.

This person was none other than the head of the Royal City Moon Church, Nun Olmido.

Chen Lun looked at her with some surprise, more precisely, at the person next to her... that perfection of a tall figure, clad in a pure white brocaded long gown, exuded an aura of utmost sanctity.

The stunning yet familiar face smiled at Chen Lun and caught his eye.

’Saint Lutina...’

Chen Lun mused inwardly while bowing slightly to show respect.

Noah had told him before rejoining the team that Teacher Lutina would attend the prince’s birthday dinner, but Chen Lun had not spotted Lutina among the guests during the dinner. He had not expected her to have just arrived.

"Nun Olmido, thank you for your blessings. The Empire will develop better with your help."

The prince carefully set the cross sword on his crossed knees and raised his head to respond with a smile.

Olmido nodded slightly, then raised her hand to point to the lady in white next to her.

"This is my good friend, Lutina Castillo from the Kellettville Forest. She has made considerable achievements in the field of painting and has brought a painting as a birthday gift for His Highness."

"I have heard the great name of Saint Lutina, and have also admired the mural ’Map of the Sacred Tree’ that praises Mother Nature. It is indeed a rare treasure of this world..."

the prince praised with a smile.

"Although Father King is displeased with the Naturalist Sect, he very much appreciates Saint Lutina’s painting skills, and also regrets that he could not have Clarence paint a portrait for him... Now having an equally renowned painter present a painting to me, I am most pleased."

"You flatter me, Your Highness," freewebnoveℓ.com

Lutina said with a smile.

"This painting was long in preparation; I hope you will like it."

She said, turning her head to gesture behind her. A giant painting covered in red silk was then carefully lifted in front of the prince by six male attendants.

Such a grand display naturally drew the attention of the guests present, everyone curiously watched the painting, eager to see what was depicted on it.

The painting, about four meters in length and two meters in width, inadvertently revealed a corner of a frame, possibly carved from some rare wood, meticulously luxuriously mounted.

At that moment, a well-informed guest recognized the mounting wood as "Dawnbone Wood" from the Kellettville Forest, a material quite precious, seldom found on the market, and only occasionally seen at high-end auctions, yet always at astronomical prices.

When the red silk was lifted, Prince Dazlert, who had been looking forward to it, squinted his eyes, his expression instantly turning cold. Behind him, Steward Babayeh’s expression dramatically changed, and he immediately screamed:

"How... How dare you?! This is a desecration! It’s a desecration of the Tresor Empire, of the Sun King, of the great and fiery father!"

Chen Lun too was shocked by the giant painting.

On the canvas was a crimson twilight sky, the incredibly lifelike strokes creating an oppressive atmosphere, depicting a deeply frightening layer of fear... and at the central area, a sun hung high.

But it was a black sun!

Under the bright silhouette resembling an eclipse, countless deep black lights dropped like waterfalls from the heavens, converging into a sea of black that flooded the world!

Reflected on the sea’s surface was the bright golden Sun.

This unnatural, even bizarrely dark painting instantly attracted the gazes of numerous guests, almost everyone wore a look of shock, frequently turning to Prince Dazlert.

"What does this mean?"

the prince said calmly.

"I hope you have a reasonable explanation, Saint Lutina."

Lutina slightly bowed her head and gently straightened her hair as she softly said:

"You may understand this as, the Naturalist Sect’s rage from being heavily oppressed by the Sun Royal Family for centuries... I am merely a spokesperson, conveying a message to you, to the Royal Family."

She raised her eyelids, looking directly at the prince with an extremely calm gaze.

"Of course, there’s another reason I painted this... it was the last wish of my dear friend Asina Wolf twelve years ago, to reveal to the world the scene she saw in the revelation of Destiny, and the oracle of the Moon Goddess she heard in her dreams."
