"But this is not going to work. We can't keep selling wine." Louis covered his face and said a little shyly, "We should find a rich and handsome man to marry among those who please us."

"Just those fools?" Akena glanced at his friend in surprise, then raised his head slightly like a proud peacock, "I will not marry those people, they are stupid and poor, they are not worthy of my beauty."

"Then... what kind of person does Akonna want to marry?" Louis asked curiously.

"me?"

Akena lowered her head, showing a thoughtful look, and then poured herself another glass of fruit wine; she drank the sour, sweet and sparkling fruit wine in one gulp, and a faint blush climbed onto her face

"I want to marry someone who is as high and incomparable as the sun, overlooking all living beings!"

"...Does such a person really exist? Your ideal is too vague." Louis frowned and shook his head involuntarily.

"If not, I'd rather not marry! It's better to be single for the rest of my life than to marry a mediocre person." Akena said dismissively.

Looking at her girlfriend's serious expression, Louis felt that she wasn't lying, and she didn't feel that something was wrong - after all, it's only natural for a beauty like her to be arrogant.

……

Soon after, the Sun King returned from the moon and completely wiped out the Lord of Radiance, the source of the evil disaster, and the world has completely restored peace since then.

In order to publicize the great cause he has established, and to stabilize the hearts of the people after the disaster, the incarnation of the king of the gods announced a tour of the country to demonstrate the orthodoxy and might of the dynasty.

The city of Memphis, the dangerous city that he personally rescued in the past, is an important part of the God King's inspection road.

Upon receiving the news of Wang Jia's arrival, the entire city of Memphis was immediately decorated with lights and festoons, and bronze bells roared, and fell into a frenzied atmosphere.The crowd who tried to pay their respects to the holy face stretched from the outside of the city to the full intersection, and there were tight security belts everywhere; people brought prepared flowers and ribbons, bathed in the biting cold wind, and waited excitedly for Wang Jia's arrival.

Akena originally didn't intend to get involved in this matter, and even thought it was boring; because in her impression, the Sun King was a majestic and kind old man, who gave orders like a machine on weekdays, and was admired by people like a god.

But Louis couldn't help being soft-spoken, because her father was a veteran rescued by the Sun King when the city of Memphis was on the verge of collapse. Although the old man died of injuries soon, he left a large pension for the family.Louis relied on this pension to live a prosperous life, so he also had a certain degree of affection for the Sun King.

Under Louis' pleading, Akena braved the cold wind and squeezed into the crowd on both sides of the road with her.

Seeing how hard they were crowded, the simple-minded men made room for them one after another. Louis thanked them in a low voice, but Akena didn't seem to take it seriously.

Akena glanced around, saw the expressions of reverence and longing on everyone's faces, frowned, and couldn't help muttering:

"A bunch of sycophants."

"How can you say that!" Louis immediately refuted after hearing her say this, "This generation of Sun King is really powerful. Everything he did after taking power is enough to be recorded in the annals of history. He cleverly resolved the invasion of aliens, Bringing advanced science and technology to the empire... tax relief, recuperation, and complete extermination of evil disasters. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a rare virtuous king in a thousand years."

"Not a bad old man yet." Akena turned his face away and sneered.

"Who told you that the Sun King is a bad old man? Let me tell you, the Sun King is only 20 years old this year! It is rumored that he was born with a radiant appearance, which is why he was spotted by the queen and made the new king. And in the sky When I was studying there, I won the hearts of many women! How can you treat someone like a god like a bad old man." Louis quickly corrected.

"So young?" Akena looked at his best friend's serious expression, showing surprise.

"I'm coming!"

"His Majesty the Sun King! His Majesty the Sun King's chariot is here!"

"I saw it too, you see the guard of honor has arrived!"

At this moment, the people on both sides of the road suddenly became agitated, and everyone began to push forward spontaneously, causing the security guards to complain.

On the gray volcanic stone road, the sound of majestic and heavy footsteps gradually sounded, and six rows of Corona Knights floating side by side floated above the horizon; under them, six traveling birds with the same fur color stepped forward, driving the sun wheel flag to fly. Walking along, the flag under the sunlight is like a burning golden sun.

"Long live! Long live!"

With bursts of joyous shouts, musicians blasted brass horns into the air, and the crowd waved and scattered brightly colored flower petals.

After the formation of the Corona Knights passed the road neatly and expressionlessly, under the guard of honor, a magnificent carriage of molten gold floated on the horizon.It was pulled by eight golden horses with golden flames all over their bodies—the sun horses were divided into two rows and stepped on their hooves side by side, driving the spacious and luxurious golden chariot to slowly run over the road.

No need to be introduced by others, as long as you are a Menesian, you can recognize the origin of the golden chariot at a glance-it is the sun imperial chariot, a chariot that only the king of gods is qualified to drive!The legendary Sun God drove this chariot from the east to the west of the world, bringing light and warmth to all living beings.

"Long live! Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

The cheers of the people suddenly became unprecedentedly enthusiastic, and they threw flower petals and pieces of colored cloth with all their strength as if they didn't want money.

The Sunlun battle flag with a white background and a gold border stands in a majestic posture on both sides of the Sun Royal Chariot. On both sides of the Sun Royal Chariot, there are well-equipped and majestic holy armor troops paralleling each other.They held long red flags in their hands, and after deliberately releasing light energy, they appeared to be surrounded by flames and filled with golden light.

The majesty of the car driving ceremonies so far has made all the admirers have an impulse to worship.

"Long live! You are the present, past, and eternal god king!" Louis waved the small flag in his hand, jumped up and down in the crowd, and shouted desperately.

"..." Looking at this scene, Akena looked up in a dazed state, his rose petal-colored lips parted slightly, showing a dazed expression.

Just when Wang Jia drove to the crossroads of Memphis City, accompanied by a crisp sound of "Clang", the holy army suddenly drew out their swords and saluted the surrounding crowd with their swords.That large expanse of bright silver light splashed down like waves, and the sound of sharp blade piercing through the air was shocking, and the cheering crowd couldn't help but suffocate.

"Long live His Majesty the Sun King!"

After a short period of silence, the cheers were like a sea tide, resounding in all directions one after another.The residents of Memphis clustered on both sides of the road, spontaneously saluting to the position of the Sun Royal Chariot, and countless pairs of eyes were filled with fanaticism and reverence.

"Hold the supreme power, be revered like a god...this is a man."

At this moment, Aken felt almost dizzy, and her mood could no longer be explained by excitement or shock—her mind had drifted to the inside of the sun imperial chariot with the cheers of the crowd, to the place like the scorching sun. shines on the people of the empire.

She felt unprecedented stimulation and experienced unprecedented excitement. Before she knew it, she recalled what she said to her best friend - I want to marry someone who is as high and unparalleled as the sun, overlooking all living beings!

Suddenly, Akena's gaze seemed to be attracted by something, and he cast his eyes on the red-haired girl who drove the carriage for the Sun King in front of the sun's imperial chariot.

"Hey, Louis, who is that woman driving for His Majesty?" she asked in a low voice.

"It seems to be called Renee, right? It is said that he is a confidant of His Majesty and is very trusted." Louis leaned close to her ear and answered.

"..."

Looking at the woman standing in front of the sun imperial chariot, Akena's beautiful eyes gradually became sharper, and finally revealed a bit of hostility.

But soon, her eyes were attracted by something new—inside the sun imperial chariot, the figure sitting upright behind the heavy curtain suddenly stretched out his hand to pull open the curtain, and stepped forward into everyone's sight.

The Lord of ZTE of the Menesian Empire, the incarnation of the sun god, and the spokesperson of the will of the gods, raised his hands under the eyes of everyone, and announced to everyone confidently and proudly

"I, Ivan! The king of the world, the great king!"

"King of the world, great king!"
