The capital of Star Antimony is called Lionheart City.
The most central building in Lionheart City is the Triumph Palace, a castle built by Bashir Valentine, the greatest monarch of Star Antimony.
According to the rules of Avalon, Iris, and the Herasl Empire, such a monarch should be called "Bashir I", and only the monarch with the same name as him in the future can be called As "Bashir II", just like "Tudor III", the Hanged King of Avalon.
But only Star Antimony in the world has different rules.
Because as an alchemist with a civilian background, the romantic and free Bashir Valentine had a special idea -
"Valentin" The meaning of this surname is "powerful", which is what Bashir's grandfather told him. It is also a wish for him.
For civilians, their surnames are not important and can even be changed or replaced at any time. For example, the surname of Bashir's father and grandfather is "Fabe", which indicates that their ancestor was a blacksmith. His grandfather hoped that he would not inherit his family business in the future, but would get another possibility, so he changed his surname.
His family starts from here.
——In other words, the first "Valentine" in this world is indeed Valentine I.
It is precisely because this surname itself gave Bashir some divine inspiration that he was able to write the occult book "The Triumph of Antimony".
This book points out another path for alchemists - the possibility that "the most wild antimony can be sublimated into the most holy star antimony".
As long as the method is right, anyone can become a god.
And if this theory continues to be extended, another possibility can be extended.
That is "everyone can be a king".
Because Bashir himself was born as a civilian, he established his own country with a group of followers from the chaotic last Herasl Empire. He knows the power and possibilities of civilians, and he values the survival of Star Antimony more than the survival of his own bloodline.
Therefore, the first king left behind a rule that was inconceivable to people at the time, would cause great chaos, and has not yet been used...
—— The person who inherits the throne does not necessarily have to have the blood of Valentine.
Because "Valentine" is a surname passed down by strength - the real name of the Star Antimony Monarch is "the powerful one", or "Valentine" or "Lion". king". Each generation of Valentine is the "Lion King of which generation."
As long as they are recognized by the red phase and the black phase, even people outside the Star Antimony can inherit "Valentine" Ding's surname. No matter what the previous surname was, you can abandon your previous surname and get the surname Valentine.
Because of this, the most fundamental principle of Xing Antimony is to promote talents.
——Theoretically, anyone can becomeBecome a "Valentine" for the monarch of Star Antimony. In the same way, if an heir is too incompetent, he may be deprived of the surname "Valentin" by the red and black aspects, and his inheritance rights are also deprived.
And this also makes all Valentines dare not relax.
They have to compete with their brothers and sisters, as well as with particularly outstanding people with foreign surnames.
If no heir can be recognized by the two ancient prime ministers, and the previous king did not decide on a heir before his death...then it is very likely that someone with a foreign surname will get the throne.
As the "Valentines" of the same generation, they are destined to be labeled as "unprecedented incompetents" in the future history books of Star Antimony.
This is why the tremendous pressure on Szijjjjjjaldo Valentin came from.
At this moment, his father was asking another person in the Triumph Palace.
"——So, what do you think of Szijjarto?"
The white-haired old man sat in his dark golden study, frowning.
He held the pen and wrote on a piece of white paper.
Standing in front of him was a clown-like jester.
His face is covered with thick white paint, and his eyes are fluffy and exploded, like broccoli. He was wearing clothes only worn by court nobles, but there were colorful patches on them, and the word "genius" was written on the back in child-like handwriting.
"Oh, my dear Majesty."
The jester replied with a smile, his voice was mellow, like reciting poetry or singing: "Then it depends on your evaluation. What's the standard?
"If you want to ask about his muscles, then he is not a qualified man. Even a female hyena can pin him to the ground;
"But if you ask about his level of alchemy - oh, with all due respect, he can't be called a genius in any way;
"But if you ask about his level as a king , then I think he might be a good king, because he is compassionate and nostalgic, and might give Lao Lalo a good job to support him in his old age... Oh, when Lao Lalo gets old and can no longer stand up, he may still For some slaves who serve Lalo and wipe his urine. ”
“Okay, Lalo. OK. I know what you mean. "
The old king sighed and put down the pen in his hand: "Weak, silent, soft-tempered, and most importantly, lacks the talent for alchemy... Sure enough, he can't do it either. ”
The paper in front of him was still blank, with no writing on it.
Because the pen in the king’s hand had not been dipped in any ink at all.
"No need for additional tests, Your Majesty? ”
“Well, no need. A mediocre person is a mediocre person no matter what, and what Xing Antimony needs is a genius who can solve all problems. But the girl he knows..."
The old king thought seriously: "Listening to that description, it's exactly the same as the 'Aleister' we made up before. Couldn't she be His Majesty the Pope's glove? ”
“It’s possible, maybe the rumors have come true! It’s so scary, the devil who only exists in rumors has jumped out to kill people, wuwuwu...”
The jester Lalo was crying, dancing and acting funny.
Old King The corners of his mouth rose slightly, but soon became calm again.
"Go and reveal the news to Rosicrucian. Tell them that Aleister showed up in Leipzig and see how they react - my intuition tells me that she completed the ceremony that promoted the host of the banquet. "
"You are saying that there is a traitor within Rosicrucian? That's terrible, hee hee hee..."
The Fool couldn't help laughing: "I guess it's Ms. Kingsford? ”
“Mostly. Otherwise, how could that 'Aleister' know that the 'liver' left by 'Dionysus the Fool' was in the hands of Count Daun? Apart from me, the principal and Jacob, only some of the higher-ups of the society know its whereabouts - it has been around for less than twenty years, and it was Jacob who forcibly opened an Imperial Vault in gratitude for Rosicrucian's help. Take it out.
"As far as I know, Pomponazzi has wanted that liver for a long time...he originally sent Heinrich to Rosicrucian just to get it.
"——After all, without the liver that can be used to 'hangover', the 'Fool' will never become a complete 'Bacchus'; and Zagreus, who is two-in-one with the God of Dionysus, will always be ' The master of banquets cannot become the master of banquets or the master of wine..."
When the old king said this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly with satisfaction, and he had an uncontrollable smile.< /p>
Although the power of the Banquet Master has long been superior to that of Ying Tiansi... But if he wants to upgrade with Dionysus, he must let this liver be released from the seal.
Although the Fool failed to challenge the Beast Master in the past and his body was torn into pieces, the Beast Master still kept his heart as a gift.
The Feaster stole and ate the Fool's heart, thus allowing Dio. Dionysus can be resurrected in his own body... However, there is no doubt that Dionysus, who once refused to become an apostle of the Pillar God, did not want to survive in this way, so he hid the location of his last body part. , to force the host who was promoted to an apostle to spit it out
——This was originally the fool's last prank
Long before the decisive battle, he had put his liver in it. It was cut out and preserved in the elf state and thrown into the sea.
The deep sea is a secret area that even the Nine Pillars cannot look into.
Of course he will. Defeated - and if the beast owner plans to devour him, he will find that he cannot find his most delicious liver, and his soul is still missing a vital piece, which may anger the beast owner...
< p>This is the "final" he prepared"Jokes and resistance".In fact, even if Dionysus did not hide his body parts, he would not know where it drifted to.
"Peng Bonazi was originally a believer of the Banquet Master, and Xue Tiansi, as the first son of Yue, was also the son of the Banquet Master. If he can break the seal, he can let the host of the banquet sense the location of the liver, so that the host of the banquet can seize the last piece of the fool's soul left in the world and be completely upgraded to the banquet master.
"There is no doubt that this achievement is enough to elevate him to an apostle. But...hahahahaha..."
The old king laughed, obviously in a happy mood: "Well Huh... I don’t know what ritual Count Daun planned to use to steal its power, but now he is dead
“That Aleister completely ruined Pomponazzi’s plan— -I think this may also be the lady's plan. Since Earl Dawn has been exposed, it would be better to destroy him directly.
"——Based on what I know about Peng Bonaqi, I'm afraid he is already smashing things and cursing at the same time."
