Chapter 348 - Banished!
Cervantez looked at Aman , and sighed in regret , it pained his heart to do so , but Aman was not fit to be the emperor , not after what he had done. Mazikeen was on the loose , and Cervantez was sure that a huge war was definitely coming the way of Hazelgroove kingdom .
Hence he said " Lucifer tried to usurp the throne of heaven from God himself and was banished to hell".
Steeling his resolve he continued " You too did the same .... And will face the same punishment .... You are stripped of your royal title and , duties as the crown prince. You are s traitor to the Hazelgroove kingdom and a wanted criminal within these lands , you will no longer use our family name , and no longer call me father . I emperor Cervantez , the first of my name , banish you from Hazelgroove kingdom ! ".
Aman stood in silence as the judgement was passed , his heart being a turmoil of emotions. But he did not hate Cervantez at all .... If anything , he felt releived , however he could not come to terms with living in exile .... Hence tried to foolishly fight !
" FOOLISH BOY!". Cervantez exclaimed , as the flow of time slowed down around him. A kick square on Aman's jaw sent him flying before others could even react to see what happened.
Sent flying from the royal palace onto the streets of Hazelgroove . It was the last time Rudra would see Aman for a long long time.
Sprawled on the floor , only Rudra saw a spec of water drop on the floor where Cervantez stood looking towards the sky where he kicked Aman offto.
Only he understood what it was ... While the others saw the back of an absolute monarch , Rudra saw the pain of a father who just banished his son. Yet it was gone in an instant , such was the life of men . Such was the life of a monarch , there was no time to show affection , no time to grieve, no time to show weakness. Only the brave and only the strong may call themselves the Emperor. Only the brave , only the strong!
The aftermath of this incident was massive, as Rudra got a system notification saying that this mission was cleared and that rewards awaited him.
The grand takeaways of the incident was
1) Emperor Cervantez was back on the throne of Hazelgroove !
2) Prince Aman was exiled
3) Emperor Cervantez came out of his isolation as a TIER 5 existance.
4) Mazikeen had escaped her confines and was mostly going to look for retribution
The whole dynamic of Hazelgroove was about to change .... No the whole dynamic of the continent was about to change .... If a tier 5 existance ruled Hazelgroove , the kingdom was headed to prosperity ... And to war!
However Rudra was too tired for that , seeing how he could still not move , he asked SMG to kill him and send him back to the church. Seemingly it was the only way. However the moment he was killed , he was forced to logout for 24 hours from the game , to ensure he did not have psychological damage from the event!
The moment Rudra logged out however he blessed the heavens that the gaming system did what it did. As for a minute in real life , he could not feel his right arm at all!
He could see his right arm , he could see it was fine , but no matter how he willed it to move , it would not move!
Untill Rudra finally was able to move his fingers , then his palm and slowly his hand. The motor nerves of players was directly being tapped into by the gaming pod. Hence although players might not realize it themselves , but they were developing motor skills that they learnt in game.
Rudra was actually proficient now with the sword. It was because he played Omega as a swordsman. Hence the time he spent in game with his hand being broken , his brain actually blocked his nerves to his hand , to stop the pain.
The two minutes of scare that Rudra had were not describable in words .... He never knew Omega could be soo terrifying.
When he was outside logged out of the game , there were landscape changing developments occuring in the game , the resurgence of the assumed dead Emperor caused a storm to brew nationwide.
Most rejoiced , especially the Church of light whose archbishop immediately rushed to the capital . While the normal citizens too were overjoyed. However , there were certain organizations who were not pleased by the regime change.
The neighbour countries immediately sent their envoys to check on the situation of the kingdom. Hundereds of thousands had gathered outisde the royal palace in a matter of hours , trying to get a glimpse of the king.
The city management had underwent crisis mode , as Amelia had to fill in for Rudra who was missing on such a crutial day. Meanwhile Jhonny?Karna and SMG were retained as Royal guests inside the royal court , they were enjoying premium hospitality that the kingdom had to offer.
Lastly , in a courtroom full of officials , Cervantez finally climbed up the stairs to the Royal throne , as he waited and faced the crowd.
Patricia at that moment " ALL HAIL EMPEROR CERVANTEZ , THE FIRST OF HIS NAME , A REVERED TIER 5 WARRIOR AND BENEVOLENT RULER?, UNPARALLELED , GLORIOUS , THE SUN OF THE EMPEROR , THE ONE TO WHOM THE THRONE RIGHTFULLY BELONGS.
BASK IN HIS GLORY AND KNEEL! ".
At this introduction , Cervantez flicked his robe as he took the throne in magnificent glory.
The entire hall , kneeling before his majesty!
The rightful owner of the throne was back in power!
