Chapter 52 You also want to swear allegiance to Lord Diding?
Aston stood still, feeling the changes within his body; his previously fragile and stiff meridians were becoming resilient again.
Flesh and blood that have lost their vitality are being infused with new vitality, and bones that are as fragile as an old person are becoming hard.
Even your heartbeat is gradually becoming stronger...
The initially blurry scenery and people are gradually becoming clearer.
His body, which is in its seventies or eighties, is gradually becoming younger and healthier...
Aston raised his hands and clenched them into fists.
I felt a long-lost strength.
Tears welled up in his eyes; he couldn't believe he had been given a second chance at life...
Five years...
It's too short.
Princess Sophia's kindness is so great that even if he were to serve her for ten or fifteen years, it wouldn't be too much to ask.
And then there's the 'Lord of Thunder' that Princess Sophia mentioned. If this 'Lord of Thunder' wasn't something Princess Sophia fabricated, then the Lord of Thunder's power... has already exceeded his imagination.
"Not enough...not enough..." Aston chuckled to himself.
"Oh? One bottle isn't enough? Then I'll have Emily give you another one."
"?......!" Aston was taken aback by Sophia's arrogant words. When he finally came to his senses, he saw Emily handing him another bottle of Life Tree Sap.
"Enough, enough... What I meant by not enough is that serving Your Highness for five years is too short. Your Highness has given me a new life, so serving Your Highness for ten or even fifteen years would not be excessive."
"Your Highness, this liquid, comparable to the Fountain of Life in the Elven Kingdom, has at least added thirty years to my lifespan."
Aston did not accept the bottle of Life Tree Juice that Emily offered him.
When he was in the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group, it would cost at least one or two thousand gold coins for the group to buy a bottle of 'Water of Life'!
Those bottled "water of life" may only contain "a few drops" of the real "water of life".
The juice that Sophia gave him to drink, which was rich in vital energy, was purer than he had ever imagined.
If this level of life-giving water were to appear on the market, it would definitely fetch an astronomical price.
It's no exaggeration to say that he could have drunk up Princess Sophia's 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins in one go.
Aston now understands why Dalton was willing to swear allegiance to the "Lord of Thunder".
Being able to casually produce such a divine artifact, the "Lord of Thunder" that Princess Sophia spoke of truly has no shortage of followers like him.
He had been overthinking things.
"I told you, this life essence doesn't belong to me, it belongs to the Lord of Thunder. If you want to thank someone, thank the Lord of Thunder. Without the Lord of Thunder, I absolutely could not have cured you."
"It seems like my luck has improved since I met the Lord of Thunder."
Sophia chuckled. She wasn't lying; she genuinely felt that her luck was gradually improving after meeting the dragon Distin.
Before she encountered the dragon Destin, her territory was the barren North.
At that time, she racked her brains but couldn't figure out how to transform the barren northern border into the fertile Flower Language Plain.
Despite her repeated claims at the time that she wanted to compete with her elder sister, Irene, for the throne and become the Queen of the Kingdom of Roland.
At that time, she shouted slogans loudly, but lacked confidence.
Things are different now. She has the confidence, and she has a reason to become the Queen of the Kingdom of Roland.
She could not repay the dragon Diding without becoming the queen of the Kingdom of Roland.
Aston looked helpless. Princess Sophia had mentioned the "Lord of Thunder" again and again. If he continued to have no reaction, it would seem that he was being a bit immature.
He took a step back, placed his right hand on his chest, and knelt on one knee. "Your Highness Sophia, I swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder."
"No, that's not what I meant. Get up quickly. I really didn't mean to force you to pledge allegiance to the Lord of Thunder."
"Your Highness, this has nothing to do with you. I was simply following my own heart. Such a great favor... if I didn't react, how would I be any different from a heartless wretch?"
Sophia wanted to laugh, but she couldn't. In fact, she couldn't wait for Aston to swear allegiance to the dragon, Destin.
But he didn't want Aston to think it was a deal.
What she wanted to see was a voluntary oath of allegiance.
"Have you thought it through?"
"I've made up my mind."
"Alright, then I'll be your witness. Mr. Aston may now take the oath."
Aston, who was kneeling on one knee, saw Sophia smile and then try hard to suppress her laughter, and he laughed too.
Princess Sophia is innocent and kind; she has absolutely no idea how to hide her true feelings.
The way she looked, wanting to laugh but not daring to, clearly indicated that she had achieved some kind of goal.
Princess Sophia's goal was probably to get him to swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder.
"Your Highness, to swear allegiance, you need to know the name of the Lord of Thunder. You must first tell me the name of the Lord of Thunder."
"Distin".
"Your Highness, is it too late for me to cover my ears?"
Grace, standing nearby, chuckled and teased Sophia, reminding her that Sophia hadn't yet sworn allegiance to the Lord of Thunder.
Of course, she didn't stop Aston from swearing allegiance to the Thunder.
"Oh, this..."
"Your Highness need not be troubled. Now that we have heard the name of the Lord of Thunder, I will join Aston in swearing allegiance to Lord Destin of Thunder. Perhaps this is the guidance of the goddess of fate."
Grace walked to Aston's side, placed her right hand on her chest, and knelt on one knee.
The people Aston is willing to follow are the people she should follow.
"Huh? You're also swearing allegiance to Lord Diding?"
"If Your Highness Sophia deems me worthy, I am willing to swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder, Destin."
"have!"
Based on the fact that Grace was willing to stay and save the villagers when faced with the beast tide, she is qualified to follow the dragon Diding.
In Sophia's presence, Aston and Grace swore allegiance to Destin and vowed never to betray him.
The oath was taken, and Aston and Grace rose one after the other.
"Your Highness Sophia, do you have a portrait of Lord Distin?"
"No," Sophia smiled. "However... when you are devout enough, Lord Destin might be able to sense your presence, and he might appear in a way you can't imagine."
By the way, when you pray to Lord Destin, be sure to use the honorific title "Lord Destin."
A portrait of the dragon Destin...
Her drawing skills were simply insufficient to capture the spirit and imposing presence of the dragon, Tessine.
Let them fill in the blanks.
"Grace, you're a mage, and I don't know how to heal your injuries, so... here's a bottle of Life Essence for you. I also have a bottle of Soul-Soothing Elixir here, which you can also take. I hope it helps you."
Sophia gave Grace a bottle of Life Tree Sap and a bottle of Soul Soothing Elixir.
Grace just witnessed the miraculous effects of life force.
As for the Soul-Soothing Elixir... she had heard Dalton say that it was a divine medicine that could heal the soul.
Either of these two magical potions, if it were to fall into the market, would cause a sensation.
And now... Princess Sophia is giving her these two magical potions, worth nearly a million gold coins, for free...
And the price she paid... was merely swearing allegiance to a Thunder Lord she had never heard of before, and joining Princess Sophia's caravan...
At that moment, Grace suddenly understood why Aston had sworn allegiance without hesitation...
