Chapter 835: Chapter 492: Coronation
In the grand council hall.
There were no flowers, and the prepared magic cannon did not fire.
This handsome Miracle Master stood calmly on the high platform, placing the golden crown on himself and holding the golden scepter as he gazed at all the wizards in front of him.
The seven Supreme Councilmen stood behind him, and even though they exuded a powerful aura, it was hard to overshadow his brilliance.
In the audience, Lentria suddenly felt a tinge of fear.
But soon, realizing this fear, Lentria felt a burst of shame and anger, and looking at Colin, he continued in a low voice.
“Graham City is indeed on the list for exchanging war valor, but according to the rules, even if you are the Miracle Master, its control should still be exchanged for war valor!”
“That’s right, so we are willing to gift all the war valor to the Miracle Master!”
Suddenly, Booster from the audience stood up and said loudly, raising a golden plaque that shone brightly in his hand!
“Thank you.” Colin was slightly taken aback, but he did not give a pretentious thank you.
He then looked at Lentria, who was a bit exasperated, and said with a light laugh:
“I would like to remind you, sir, that in this war, I not only participated in the Solid Wall plan but also personally vanquished two actual Divine avatars. The amount of specific war valor might need a thorough calculation.”
Upon hearing this, Lentria was rendered speechless, staring blankly at Colin.
However, the latter had already stopped looking at him.
…
Perhaps history is always like this; great changes often begin from the insignificant.
This meeting, which was of profound significance to the Wizard Clan, ended within half an hour.
“Colin… great Miracle Master, sir.”
Backstage at the venue, Colin found the three of Booster.
The latter was startled to see him come over and quickly said respectfully.
Colin calmly accepted this respect.
From today on, he needed to get used to this identity. Only by getting used to this identity could he understand the responsibilities it represented.
Without wasting words, Colin straightforwardly said, “I am here to invite the wizards of the Nolan Continent to settle in Graham City. Would you be willing?”
“Of course, we are willing!” The three of Booster replied without a second thought.
“Very well, let’s discuss this in detail after the Miracle Meeting ends.”
Colin nodded, looking at the familiar figure in the distance, and promptly ended the conversation.
Pausing in his steps, Colin took a gentle breath in his heart and went towards Shelley, Atbolde, and… Lillian.
It was now a free interval after the High Rank Wizards’ meeting and before the public coronation ceremony.
So at this moment, he had the time to come over and find the three of Booster.
But unexpectedly, he met Shelley and the others.
Since being taken away to the Extreme North by the Supreme Councilmen, Colin had been busy preparing for matters related to the Miracle Master, so he hadn’t seen Shelley, whom he had just gotten together with, during this period.
Thinking about it, there was a bit of heartache.
But this also served as Colin’s driving force now.
If there were no Divine, he could very well enjoy peaceful and tranquil happy times with Shelley and friends.
But now he couldn’t, as long as the Divine were not vanquished, they couldn’t even have a day of peaceful happiness!
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Colin approached Shelley and the others.
Shelley was pretty much the same as before, quietly standing in place, only now her eyes seemed to carry a gentle smile, softly calling, “Colin.”
Strangely, when they were just friends, Colin didn’t feel any difficulty with brief separations, but now, after just a few days, seeing Shelley again filled his heart with indescribable tenderness.
“Shelley.”
Looking at her, even the Miracle Master’s voice became gentler.
Lillian, standing to the side, noticed this scene, her complexion slightly dimmed, a wave of sorrow surged in her heart, and she subconsciously pressed her lips together.
But soon, she suppressed all her emotions, laughing heartily and saying to Colin:
“Should I now call you my junior, or the respected Miracle Master?”
“…Senior Lillian can call me whatever she likes, no matter what my identity is now, you were once my senior after all.”
Colin paused and said with a smile.
But for some reason, he found himself a bit hesitant to look into Lillian’s eyes.
Lillian gazed at Colin, tightly pressing her lips, and suddenly a nameless flame rose in her heart.
This flame brought a heat that made her heart race, as if something in her chest wanted to leap out!
“Just a senior?” Lillian finally couldn’t help but ask.
Hearing these words that sounded familiar, Colin was stunned.
Atbolde, standing to the side, also felt a stir in his heart, but he thought it over and chose to stand aside, observing silently, as if he hadn’t heard anything, and even quietly moved a bit further away.
Their matters as young people should be handled by them.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent.
After asking, the courage in Lillian’s heart quickly dissipated, her face slightly blushing and then turning somewhat bewildered and helpless, she felt the silent atmosphere and even began to feel a bit regretful.
“Does Lillian also like Colin?” At this moment, Shelley suddenly asked.
“No… I just…” Lillian hurriedly explained, but her voice grew smaller and smaller as she lowered her head further.
“So Lillian doesn’t like Colin?” Shelley asked again.
The face of the World Elf born on the Extreme North glaciers showed no excess emotion, only a pure curiosity.
The Yanan World is not strictly a monogamous world.
It is common for powerful men to have many romantic partners, just as powerful women have many lovers.
Of course, love is always selfish, and jealousy and possession also exist.
It’s just that Shelley either doesn’t understand or simply doesn’t have these emotions.
Lillian gradually realized it too, perceiving Shelley’s pure and immaculate heart.
Although she only got to know Shelley because of Colin, in these years spent together on the Tilamei Plain, she had already become very close friends with Shelley. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have urged Colin to rush to the Extreme North to heal Shelley back then.
Even if fate accidentally created an opportunity for Colin and Shelley, looking at Shelley who had come back to life, Lillian had no regrets.
If she had the chance to choose again, she would still make the same choice!
Maybe it was Shelley’s voice that gave Lillian courage.
The petite Witch suddenly felt calm and at ease.
“No.” She gently shook her head at Shelley, then looked at Colin and said softly, “I do like Colin.”
“I see.” Shelley nodded, a rare happy expression appearing on her usually cold face: “I too like Colin.”
“Aren’t you worried I’ll take Colin away?”
Shelley was slightly taken aback, looking at Lillian with curiosity and asked, “Will you?”
Now it was Lillian’s turn to be stunned. She looked at Shelley, who seemed a bit innocent at the moment, felt an inexplicable softness in her heart, and shook her head gently:
“Of course not.”
“So… what’s your choice, Colin?” Lillian turned her head and suddenly asked.
Colin looked at the two Witches in front of him and without hesitation, nodded gently:
“The three of us will always be together… no matter what the future holds.”
Lillian didn’t mind, Shelley didn’t mind, so why should he let the worldview of his past life bind him, leaving one of them to be sad alone?
After expressing their feelings for each other, the previous awkward atmosphere vanished instantly.
The three of them returned to their usual state of interaction, now even closer.
Atbolde did not disturb them, but simply watched quietly from a distance, a faint smile on his lips.
The road of life is mostly painful, but there are always brightly shining and precious things embedded within, giving people the courage to keep going.
…
Nine o’clock in the morning.
Outside Graham City, the Miracle Master began his official coronation ceremony.
The Magic Cannons roared. Amidst aurora-like colorful streamers, the gray hall located at the center of the Gobi architecture slowly rose towards the sky.
Under the great power of the Wizards, its exterior walls were gradually replaced by a phantom projection.
Wizards from any corner, any direction of the Huailan Gobi, could see this magnificent building.
“What’s that?” On the street, a Wizard raised his head and muttered.
“Don’t you know? The patrolling Wizards on the street have been notifying everyone for a long time; this is the coronation of the Miracle Master!” someone answered.
“Miracle Master… sorry, I just got here.”
“The Miracle Master… is the ruler of all Miracle Cities, the supreme leader Wizard of the Siya Continent! It has been vacant for a long time, but now we finally have a successor!”
“Vacant for so long, why suddenly now…”
“That’s obviously because of the war with the Divine!” said a Wizard in a black robe loudly, “The golden Solid Wall is complete, and we seemingly have victory, but frankly, our current situation is merely being a turtle hiding in its shell!”
“The golden Solid Wall is clearly just a stopgap measure. One day, we will go out, we will eliminate all the Divine, and reclaim the Yanan World!”
“So, when the Supreme Councilmen instituted the Miracle Master at this time, it is clear that the new Miracle Master can lead us to victory! Or at least help us defeat the Divine!”
The analysis by the black-robed Wizard was simple and clear, and as soon as he finished speaking, it was met with a chorus of agreement.
The same scene was witnessed all over the Gobi. As long as the Wizards were even slightly perceptive, they could understand the underlying logic behind this event.
So when the figure of a Supreme Councilman appeared in the sky, beginning just like the previous meeting among High Rank Wizards, to announce Colin loudly.
All the Wizards on the ground, except for some Pureblood Wizards, remained silent, looking up and attentively listening to the Supreme Councilman’s speech.
Colin Leonard.
A name was first etched into the minds of the Wizards present.
Then, as the Supreme Councilman continued with a brief introduction of Colin, this seemingly simple name gradually got filled with an extraordinary, remarkable figure!
Then.
The Supreme Councilman withdrew.
Replaced in the sky was Colin, wearing a golden crown and holding a golden scepter!
“Today, I become the Miracle Master.”
“And tomorrow, I will become the nightmare of the Divine.”
…
Thanks to the grand coronation ceremony and Colin’s bold words.
The information regarding the coronation of the Miracle Master spread throughout the Yanan World in a very short time; among the ordinary Wizards, Colin’s prestige soon reached an all-time high.
This influence continued to spread, but if Colin’s actions were to remain only limited to those simple words at the coronation ceremony, then this reputation would eventually decline, possibly even backfire.
— That’s what all the observant Pureblood Families thought.
However, just three days after the opening of the Miracle Meeting, the news announced by Colin once again set the entire Wizard World ablaze!
