When the plot-skips players into the game world

Chapter 1040: Chapter 379: The Rebirth of the Heaven Defier

The military aristocrats of Black Hawk received a warm welcome upon their arrival in the Narcissus Duchy.

Inside the cozy Mage Tower, upon witnessing their arrival, the Mage Lords who had been waiting on site took the initiative to greet them enthusiastically.

Several middle-aged tough guys dressed in pure black military uniforms, smiling, exchanged hugs and cheek kisses with the handsome men and beautiful women in light robes across from them. It was hard to tell that they had been at war for several months.

“May Holy Blood bless you, brother. Congratulations on founding your nation… and congratulations on your newfound youth.”

“May Holy Blood boil day and night, dear sister. You are free now.”

The Black Hawk nobles extended their sincere congratulations one after another.

They called each other brothers and sisters, which was the most intimate appellation among the Sons of the Moon. It was generally used only among those of the same faith.

Although the faith of the Sons of the Moon within the Black Hawk and the Narcissus Duchy differed slightly… the Black Hawk nobles themselves were not direct subordinates of the Red Chancellor and were often involved in wars. Their faith in the Banquet Master wasn’t steadfast; they simply followed orders—or rather, followed the popular belief in the Banquet Master due to Star Antimony’s mainstream faith.

Now that the Red Chancellor was dead, they were not barred from converting to the Blood Celestial Marshal’s faith.

In such circumstances, being called “brothers and sisters” was quite heartening. It gave a feeling that one’s own faith was recognized.

——It was like how pagans respectfully greeted each other in the way of the other’s sect.

The leading male Mage, likewise, nodded with a smile: “Thank you, General Miller, General Hepburn.”

He seemed very happy, enthusiastically embracing each of the Black Hawk nobles in turn.

He was Lord Youlan, the most powerful among the Mage Lords of the Narcissus Duchy.

He was also the only one, the Old Mage who had lived from the era of the last Duke Dacula until now.
