MTL - Weird Wizarding World-Chapter 422 funeral

  In June, the warm spring has passed, and the warm summer is coming with the breath of all things flourishing.

   Today is sunny, blue sky, white clouds, the breeze blows past, and the grass and trees are rustling. Anyone who sees it should feel refreshed.

  But the Loen Palace was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.

  A grand funeral is underway.

  Wizard Erwin's body lay in a coffin surrounded by flowers. After careful arrangement, his expression was serene, as if he was just falling asleep.

  The guests before the coffin all wore black witch robes, which is a funeral tradition and a respect for Wizard Erwin.

  "Looking back on Erwin Ruen's legendary life, we have to admit that he is an admirable and great wizard..."

The host of the funeral was a first-rank wizard. In terms of blood relationship, Wizard Erwin was his uncle. He seemed to be dazzled by the oncoming summer wind as he read the eulogy. .

  He sincerely felt sad for Wizard Erwin's passing, because it represented the complete decline of the Loen family.

  Slight sobs came from the members of the Loen family standing in the front, most of them also had red eyes.

  Jennifer stood on the right side of the front row, looking through the swaying flowers to Erwin's great-grandfather in the coffin, her nose couldn't help twitching, and she wiped away the tears that were about to fall with her right hand.

  After the presiding wizard finishes reading the eulogy, and after all the guests have gone to the coffin to pay their respects to the remains, it is the last step of the funeral—the burial.

  The Loen Palace occupies a very large area, and there is a small hillside to the south of the palace, which is the exclusive cemetery of the Loen family.

  The mighty funeral procession marched towards the royal cemetery along the neat stone road in the palace.

   Allen walked at the end of the line, raised his head and looked around at the luxurious buildings everywhere.

   "Alan, pay attention to your manners." The uncle walking beside Alan reprimanded him with a frown.

   Allen said disapprovingly: "I just took a look at my future court in advance. Is there any problem, uncle?"

   "Don't be too happy, the old guy Irwin is dead, but the Ruen family still has several first-level wizards, and no one knows if they have any background."

  Goss emphasized that it's just that he doesn't have much to do with the most talented boy in the family.

  So the emphasis was just like a breeze blowing, and Allen didn't care:

   "Uncle, my father is now the only second-tier wizard in the Loen Kingdom, so what if there are more first-tier wizards in the Loen family?"

   "What's more, we planned to act after the funeral. If the members of the Loen family are angry now seeing me like this, it would just give us the best reason, wouldn't it?"

  Goss opened his mouth, but finally fell silent. He no longer restrained the boy, and let him look around wantonly in the solemn funeral procession.

  But maybe it was because they were at the end, even though Allen was so ostentatious, it didn't cause any surprises.

  The team arrived at the hillside cemetery smoothly.

  Wizard Erwin's burial place has already been determined. It is at the top of the hillside, the exclusive burial area for the patriarchs of all generations.

   Slowly put the black coffin into the dug cemetery. In order to prevent the dead body from being desecrated, Erwin, who was still sleeping peacefully before, has been turned into a mass of ashes after the coffin lid was closed.

  The first-order wizards of the Ruen family lined up in a long queue, one by one picked up the steel shovels next to the cemetery, and filled the coffin with soil.

  Because of the youngest seniority, Jennifer was ranked last. She held the steel shovel, and her expression remained calm except for the slight redness of her eyes.

  ‘Great-grandfather Erwin, rest in peace. '

  She scooped up the last handful of soil with a steel shovel and put it on Erwin's coffin.

Afterwards, the presiding wizard recited the incantation, and the tomb was instantly buried by the surrounding mud, and a white stone tablet grew out of the ground, and then, lines of words recording the life of Wizard Erwin emerged like vines on the stone tablet .

   So far, Wizard Erwin's funeral has basically ended.

  Jennifer put down the steel shovel and retreated into the crowd.

  Wizard Joe, the presider, was preparing to read the final eulogy, announcing the end of the funeral, and inviting the guests to the banquet hall.

  An unexpected guest suddenly fell from the sky.

   "Sorry for being late."

   This is a middle-aged man with a rough and wild ponytail. His skin is pale and old, and his green eyes seem to be covered with a layer of mist, which is a bit gloomy.

   He looked at everyone in the Loen family, and Shi Shi ran a noble salute.

'Father! ’ Allen in the crowd showed joy, lifted his black hood, and strode forward without hesitation.

  Following his actions, nearly 60% of the wizards among the guests also lifted their hoods and followed him forward.

   "Duke Harris?"

"How is this going?"

  Because of such a sudden change, the scene suddenly became chaotic, and some guests who did not come forward remained silent, as if they had expected this long ago.

  But more guests who did not come forward were still at a loss, and could not help but whisper to their companions.

   "Harris, what do you mean?" the host wizard Joe asked in a deep voice, his complexion darkened.

   "What do you mean...Of course I'm here to attend Lord Irwin's funeral."

  Harris smiled, and without waiting for the members of the Loen family to respond, he stepped forward, showing off his aura as a second-tier wizard!

  The powerful fluctuation of magic power made the scene quiet, and many guests showed expressions of shock.

   "You have become a second-order wizard?" Joe asked with an ugly expression.

   "Yes." Harris nodded gracefully, then no longer concealed, and said bluntly:

   "Your Excellency Erwin has passed away. Now the Kingdom of Loen is in a panic due to the pollution of the farmland, and all kinds of chaos emerge one after another... As the only second-level wizard in the kingdom, I should stand up and take on the responsibility of managing this great country, shouldn't I?"

  As soon as Harris' words came out, both the Loen family and the guests immediately understood the current situation.

  Harris, or the Sidney family, obviously wanted to seize the power of the Loen royal family!

   "Yu Li, I am the strongest second-tier wizard in the kingdom. Yu Qing, the Sidney family also married princesses several times, and they are also Loen orthodox... I don't think you will have any objections, right?"

  Harris continued, and the guests gathered behind him spoke out at the right time:

   "Duke Harris is right. The Kingdom of Loen is in turmoil right now. A more powerful king should rule this country!"

  The members of the Loen family fell silent.

   If it was in a world without extraordinary power, there should be a large group of people surrounding this place to persecute the Loen royal family.

  But in the world of wizards, it is enough for the second-level Harris to stand here alone.

  ‘How can you be so shameless! ’ Gritting her silver teeth, Jennifer glared at Harris, and wanted to spew out angry words in her heart.

  What is Loen orthodox? Apart from marrying a few princesses without wizard talent, the Harris family has nothing to do with the Loen family at all!

   They who have ruled the Tilaimei Plain for thousands of years are the real Loen orthodoxy!

  However, at this moment, Joe beside him, who is also the most respected wizard of the Loen family, sighed:

   "Your Excellency Harris is right."

  ‘Uncle Joe? ! ’ Jennifer looked at Joe in disbelief.

  However, not only Joe, but other first-order wizards of the Ruen family were also silent, and just clenched their fists.

  From the moment Wizard Erwin passed away and the Loen family no longer had a second-tier wizard, they had expected this day to come, but they didn't expect it to come so soon.

  But what can be done, if they don’t give in, Harris alone can solve them all.

   No one cares about this. For the Supreme Council or Neustadt City, all they need is the existence of the Loen Kingdom, which can provide them with a stable supply of food. As for who is the king, what difference does it make?

   Moreover, the farmland of the Loen Kingdom has basically been polluted, and the wizards sent by the Supreme Council to investigate and study here a few days ago have also left.

   Those farmlands, I am afraid there is no hope of saving them.

  Under such circumstances, no one will care about the change of the power of the Loen Kingdom.

  Jennifer seemed to understand something, the anger in her eyes suddenly went out, she just pursed her lips tightly and clenched her fists.

"Your Excellency Joe is indeed a smart man." Harris nodded in satisfaction, "It would be best if we could resolve this matter peacefully. The new king of Tiramie is coming in a few days. Hi, that's not good."

   "Of course, I'm not the one to kill everything. If the Loen family is willing, they can still enjoy the power and status of the duke family in the Loen Kingdom."

   "Thank you, Lord Harris, for your kindness, but we should leave the Tilemei Plain and go to a distant place to find another development." Joe said neither humble nor overbearing.

  Don’t look at them being amicable now, as if what happened in front of them was just a trivial matter, but as long as there is a chance to kill the grass, Harris will definitely not let it go.

   This is a life-and-death power struggle, but Harris needs face now, and the Loen family needs a chance to breathe and hope to escape, so they maintain such a fragile balance.

   "Also, I wish the Loen family all the best in the future. If you encounter difficulties, Sidney Kingdom welcomes you back at any time."

  Harris narrowed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth and said.

  Let’s do this for now, when he takes control of the Loen Kingdom, he will have plenty of time to deal with the remnants of the Loen Family.

   and others have dealt with the Loen family and consolidated their power. The next step is to reproduce the grand occasion when the Loen Kingdom commanded the entire Tilaimei Plain.

  Those kingdoms that declared independence due to the gradual decline of the Loen family will submit again sooner or later, but this time... they surrender to him, at the feet of the Sidney family!

  It’s just the new king of Tilemie...Harris has a bit of a headache. He couldn’t find any information about the new king of Tilemie.

   But let’s talk about it later, anyway, no matter who is the king of Tilemei, he needs someone to manage the Loen Kingdom.

   'Kingdom of Sidney...'

  On the other side, Joe lowered his head slightly, a trace of unconcealable anger flashed in his eyes, but when he raised his head, it had already changed into a smile.

  He saluted Harris, and left quickly with the members of the Loen family.

  The solemn funeral ended in such a dramatic way.

  On the trail of the kingdom, Joe took the lead in walking, but soon changed to flying.

   "Jennifer, go to the White Tower with me, the rest of the people hurry up and gather the important clansmen, we have to leave the Loen Kingdom immediately!" His deep voice sounded in the minds of every member of the Loen family.

  Jennifer bit her lip and followed Joe's figure, feeling an inexplicable sense of panic in her heart.

   This feeling of clenching her heart reminded her inexplicably of the scene when she was sitting in the carriage and witnessed Uncle Duncan's death.

   Taking a few deep breaths, Jennifer worked hard to calm down.

   "It's okay, Jennifer, you are already a first-order wizard, and everyone said that you will be as powerful as Erwin's great-grandfather in the future. When that time comes, you can bring everyone back here!"

  However, when Joe came to the Irwin White Tower, he saw a wizard standing at the gate of the White Tower from afar.

   This scene made his face darken on the spot, and he secretly cursed Harris, and Joe subconsciously prepared to turn around and leave.

  Although there are still many precious things in the White Tower, the most critical resources such as meditation ideas are in the secret room of the palace. Time is precious now, so we can only abandon the White Tower.

   "Wait a minute, Uncle Joe, that seems to be Lord Colin!" Jennifer said suddenly.

   "Colin? That powerful garrison wizard?" Joe just turned around, but Colin had already appeared in front of him.

   "Good afternoon, Jennifer." Colin greeted Jennifer, and then greeted Joe slightly, "What happened to the Loen family recently? Why is there no one in the White Tower?"

  He just arrived in Loen Kingdom from Neustadt.

  The apparent center of the Loen Kingdom is the palace, but the real center is this white tower.

  So as soon as he returned to Jinmaisui, he came here, preparing to take the first step in understanding his territory.

   "Your Excellency Colin..." For some reason, when Jennifer saw Colin, she couldn't bear the accumulated emotions in her heart, and she burst into tears.

   "What happened?" Colin's face gradually became serious, and he asked in a deep voice, and at the same time showed the ring of Tilemie on his left index finger.

   not long.

   After listening to the whole incident, Colin touched his chin, but smiled inexplicably.

  The Duke named Harris did him a little favor.

  …

  Harris never thought that his majestic conspiracy would be shattered in this way, he just felt that this world is so absurd.

  Jennifer also felt similar to him. The girl only felt that from the moment she and Joe met Colin in front of the White Tower, everything seemed to happen in a dream.

The Sidney family apologized publicly and paid a huge amount of compensation to the Ruen family. The same was true for the families who stood behind Harris at that time. They all chose compensation.

   Reciprocated, the Ruen family finally donated all the compensation to Colin.

  Of course, there is another thing that Jennifer finds most incredible—she has become the queen of the Kingdom of Loen!
