《Dark Moon : Rise of The Dark King》Sequel Chapter 26. Choose A Queen (King of Euphorion)
Advertisement
Evening Sun broke through the White Moon Castle study room window. Angel sat in a chair at his desk, his eyes focused on a report sheet on his hand. It has been almost five years since he began to rule Euphorion, his revised military ethics succeed to improve the relationship between the military and the civilians, his decision to reopen the trade route and fix it, succeeded in advancing Euphorion's economy. In addition he also succeed to manage some potential local goods and making it very popular in other kingdoms such as tea, silk, perfume and wine.
Now, Pearl Gate City has become the largest trading city on AndromedaContinent, he also has developing other trading cities, the city name are Emerald Gate City, Sapphire Gate City and Garnet Gate City. In less than five years he transformed Euphorion into the most prosperous kingdom on Andromeda Continent.
He was adored and feared by everyone at the same time. All the nobles and ministers submitted to him as well as the military and the civilians, not because of fear but because of his ability as a ruler, even though they also didn't put aside his fighting ability as a king was also veryfrightening.
He put down the document thatcontaining the progress report of a troops which he had formed two years ago. This troops can attack without being seen, move fast and kill silently. He preparedthem to quell the rebellion quietly since they usually took the civilians as their hostages.
"What should I name them? Which military leaders who can be trusted to lead them? I can't possibly assign it to one of the four elemental spirits again."
Right now, the four elemental spirits had been appointed as his generals and each of them had leaded an army in accordance with their personality.
Gale has a childish personality but he is an easy going person, therefore he is entrusted him to lead the 'Peace Bringer Army' to maintain Euphorion's securityespecially their trade routes and also maintain the relations between the military and the civilians.

Gaia has a serious personality, so he is entrusted to lead the 'Guardian Army' to guard the border.
Flare has a bold personality, therefore she was entrusted to lead the 'Black Wings Army' for royal troops.
And Frost was an observer so he was entrusted to lead the 'Dark Agents' to take information from other kingdoms.
The previous King of Euphorion was a magic user, so they needed melee fighters to protect them while they cast magic spells but since he could fight both with in close and range combat, he felt that holding them by his side was futile. Therefore he decided to appoint them as his generals to help him protect Euphorion.
Shortly, Claire put a cup of tea and some delicate honey coated cookies beside him.
"Your Majesty, your tea is ready."
"Thank you." he said as he took the cup and sipped it.
Currently, Claire and Cley are seventeenyears old, after he stabilized his position as a king for six months, he picked them up and took them to the castle. They got homeschooled for four years before they finally decided to work as his assistants like his father used to.
He put back his cup and tried to take another report, but before he took it, a knocking sound accompanied by the sound of the door being opened came. Cley entered the room and bowed to him.
"Your Majesty, Chancellor Allan wants to see you."
"Let him in." he answered shortly.
Cley opened the door and invited Chancellor Allan to enter the room.
Chancellor Allan approached him and bowed.
"Your Majesty, I've brought you the list." he said as he handed over several documents to him.
"Thank you." he said as he took thedocument and examined it. A few days ago he asked Chancellor Allan to make a list of military leaders and their achievements. He plans to choose some of them to be tested before being appointed as the leader of his new army.

His forehead began to frown when he began to read the list, he returned his eyes to Chancellor Allan with confusedexpression.
"What is this?"
"It's the list of Queen candidate." Chancellor Allan answered casually.
He placed the list on the desk, leaned his back to the chair and folded his hands in front of him.
"Didn't I ask you for the list of military leaders?"
"I know, but choosing a Queen is also important." said Chancellor Allan with serious expression.
"Didn't you just make me meet with..." he paused for a moment while trying to remember the woman's name he had met yesterday.
"Lady Amelinne? Lady Hellen? No, that was last week." he finally gave up.
"What's her name?"
"Lady Merilda."
"Yes, her. That's already the fourth meeting of this week."
"That's only the fourth meeting of this week." Chancellor Allan said with emphasize tone.
He sighed tiredly, his days like this since he entered the age of twenty-one, the minimum age to get married according to the law. Chancellor Allan would bring a young noble woman from a well-known family and get them to meet. Now, he seemed to be giving him a list of noble women's name in Euphorion.
He re-read the list and began to frown again as he didn't recognize more than a half of names on it.
"Lady Mylle, Lady Alyson, Lady Bethia. Who are they?" He put the list back on the desk and turned his gaze back to Chancellor Allan.
"Isn't it time to stop, Chancellor Allan? "
"We can stop once you have chosen a queen." Chancellor Allan answered nonchalantly.
"If you are worried because no one help me manage the kingdom, I already have Claire and Cley as my assistants to help me. We don't need to rush it."
"No, I'm more worried about your successor."
"Isn't the rule for taking the Euphorion's throne not based on bloodlines?"
"Yes, but we also don't want our children or grandchildren to have a King like the late King Xenos. You have great magic power at least your child has the same power as you, it will be easy for him to defeat the four elemental spirits. For his education we can teach him how to become a good king." Again, Chancellor Allan said it with emphasize tone. It seems he really concerns about it.
He frowned once again while unconsciously let out another sigh.
"So you rush me to choose a queen because you want me to have children soon? Do you think I'm some kind of rare animal that must be preserved?"
Cley instantly bursted into laughter, he quickly covered his mouth with his hand to hold it but he still couldn't stop his laughter. Claire who stood beside him, hit him with her elbow to remind him of his manner.
Angel and Chancellor Allan turned their eyes to Cley.
"Cley, is there something funny?" he said with a straight face.
Cley bit his lips to stopped his laughter and shook his head. But after Angel and Chancellor Allan turned their gaze to each other. Cley released his hand and muttered to himself.
"Your Majesty, you're more like a rare monster than a rare animal."
Claire threw another hit to Cley with her elbow, as a sign to keep his mouth shut while Angel pretend doesn't hear him.
"Yes. You must immediately produce your successor as soon as possible." continued Chancellor Allan.
Cley bursted into laughter once again while his hand covered his mouth, desperately to hold it.
"He wasn't denied it, he really thinks His Majesty is a rare animal."
Claire looked away from Cley in shame to have a brother like him. Angel and Chancellor Allan turned their gaze back to Cley in annoyance.
