A rare magical miracle in the world

Chapter 676: Chapter 354: Revealing Identity (Requesting Monthly Passes)

“Let fate decide, listen, just listen.”

Yizai Marquis: “Thorn’s miracles might be widespread, but they do not favor humanity.”

On the contrary, in terms of development, it is less about nurturing the flourishing growth of humanity and more about returning the entire era back to primitive society.

What is bedding?

Should bedding always cover?

No, bedding is meant to be lifted, and one day it will certainly be lifted.

...

So the question arises, should the towering buildings established on the surface by human history, everything that belongs to humanity, also be overturned?

“Count Thorn is not a complete adherent of the Rule of Ultimate Selection among the Masters of Miracles,” said the Iron Eagle King: “He’s too timid, and he’s indecisive in his actions. But probably anyone faced with such miracles would hesitate.”

Apart from the Miracle Citizens, no other mortals get any benefit, in fact, they might even devolve.

The miracle of Count Thorn is just such a thing.

Survival of the fittest, natural selection, those who are not fit can only be eliminated, it’s very cruel and cold-blooded.

“Speaking ill of someone behind their back, seniors, you never change.”

As the three of them were fervently bad-mouthing Count Thorn, the subject of their discussion walked in.

“You’re early, aren’t you?”

“I thought you wouldn’t arrive until tomorrow.”

The Conference of a Thousand Kings was to take place on the third day; the first two were mainly for reception and rest.

“So if I come late, you’re free to speak ill of me, is that it?”

Among the Seven Kings of the Iron Eagle, with the exception of Ali and the Iron Eagle King who had a feud, the others got along quite amicably, and since this was an informal exchange, there was no gap created by differences in status or power.

Right now, everyone here is simply a Master of Miracles; there’s no talk of emperors or kings, everyone is the same.

“You are…”

Count Thorn noticed Bailuo; he had never seen him before.

“Count Thorn?”

Bailuo noticed the way the three addressed each other and had a guess about their identities, so he stood up, walked over to Count Thorn, and extended his hand.

“Hello.”

Count Thorn wasn’t good at interacting with strangers, but he still mustered the courage and, trembling, shook Bailuo’s hand.

“Though it might seem untimely,” Bailuo looked towards the Iron Eagle King, “may I ask about your identity?”

“Me?”

The Iron Eagle King shrugged his shoulders: “Iron Eagle King.”

Although concealing one’s identity was an option, if the other party explicitly asked, it was certainly not something to hide, for that would be a show of disrespect to a Master of Miracles.

“As for me, I am the Lord of the Yatun Duchy.”

Bailuo smiled and shook hands with the Iron Eagle King; meanwhile, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Grand Duke of Yatun, Iron Eagle King…

“Hahaha.”

The Iron Eagle King couldn’t help but laugh aloud: “So, are we enemies? Is that it? Are we considered enemies?”

With three consecutive questions, the Yizai Marquis stood by without speaking, just quietly watching Bailuo. He also hadn’t expected such a coincidence, for Bailuo to end up in their rest room.

Was it a coincidence, or was it deliberate?

Well, that actually isn’t important. What matters is that Bailuo had arrived and had spent some time with them.

“The Grand Duke of Yatun.”

Count Thorn looked at Bailuo: “If you want the Ancient City, why send troops to attack, why kill Teacher Lixue?”

The tone of Count Thorn was not accusatory; he just did not understand, could not comprehend how Bailuo could go to such extremes.

In Count Thorn’s view, it was he who had erred, not the citizens under his command.

If Bailuo sought revenge, he should come after him alone.

“Well, I need to have a word with this gentleman first.”

Bailuo shifted his attention to Count Thorn, and the Iron Eagle King was indifferent, signaling him to proceed as he wished.

Through previous exchanges, Bailuo and the Iron Eagle King had come to understand each other’s personalities and habits. The Iron Eagle King didn’t care much about formalities. Even if Bailuo interrupted him or ignored him, it wouldn’t anger him.

“Speaking of which, why are you trembling?”

Bailuo noticed Count Thorn’s condition was not good. He had been that way when they shook hands, and even now, just standing before him, he seemed to shiver.

Was he afraid of him?

Bailuo thought that unlikely because he didn’t perceive any fear from Count Thorn.

“Oh, I see.”

Bailuo realized that Count Thorn didn’t dare meet his eyes, and he seemed to understand the situation: “Are you not good at talking to people?”

“Yes, I am sorry, I… rarely attend meetings, and I’ve never confronted other kings.”

“Are you that honest?”

Count Thorn spoke frankly without hiding his weaknesses and deficiencies, which made Bailuo reassess him: “So what is it you want to do? What is your stance, or do you have any requests for me?”

This was not a battlefield but a diplomatic setting; Bailuo saw his role not as aggressive but as assertive.

Yet, Count Thorn had already shown submission, and for Bailuo to press further would seem like picking on the disadvantaged.

The customs of the Yatun Duchy admire those who dare challenge the mighty, and they never bully the weak.

“I only hope that you will not invade us again in the future.”

Before Bailuo could speak, Count Thorn added, “If you need land, I am willing to give you all the Land of Wonders.”

As soon as he said this, neither the Yizai Marquis nor the Iron Eagle King had any particular reaction, but Bailuo was greatly surprised.

This was no longer a matter of cowardice. In the Yatun Duchy, such words would make no difference from being a weakling, would they?

“What do you mean by that?”

Bailuo couldn’t comprehend Count Thorn’s thought process: “If I want it, you will just give it all?”

“Give it.”

“Are you serious?”

The Master of Miracles didn’t lack the ability to lie; he just disdained from doing so.

Moreover, there were no instances where Count Thorn had gone back on his word. Thus, even if it was a delaying tactic, Bailuo was willing to believe him once.

After all, there was no downside. Even if Count Thorn were to break his word, Bailuo would suffer no loss.

If that was the case, then why not try to obtain all of Count Thorn’s Land of Wonders through diplomacy?

Why wouldn’t he seize such a large advantage without a fight, just by talking?

“You two didn’t react to his offer?”

Bailuo said, “You’re the Iron Eagle King, the leader of the Iron Eagle Kingdom. Can you also accept this?”

“I’m merely an alliance leader,” the Iron Eagle King replied. “Moreover, to add on, if possible, I actually don’t want to be the king.”

“Oh, by the way.”

The Iron Eagle King added, “If you wish, you can join the Iron Eagle Kingdom. I’d be willing to let you have my position as the Iron Eagle King.”

“Regarding the title of Iron Eagle King, if you don’t like it, then you can change it to the Kingdom of Yatun, Ade Kingdom, Anden Kingdom, whatever you prefer.”

“…..”

Before meeting these three Masters of Miracles, Bailuo had always thought the Miracle World was dangerous and chaotic.

But having made contact and after their discussions, Bailuo began to suspect that perhaps he was the one suffering from paranoia.
