Chapter 480 - Duran Ambrose

"Then let\'s go to another place," Ashley pulled her father while signaling to Tang Shaoyang and Selena to follow them.

Duran Ambrose, the current head of the Ambrose Family. Living in the dark because of the accusation of treason to the Kingdom. It was a famous tale where the Ambrose Family assassinated the Flame Queen. That was what people believed until now as lies said many times could become the truth.

The Fotia Legion was later dispatched to extinguish the Ambrose Family. The strongest Knight Legion in the Pyrolis Kingdom. However, Fotia Legion later found out that it was a scheme of Prime Minister Robert Kingsley who later changed the name of the kingdom to get rid of the bad luck. Hence the Lionax Kingdom formed with the Kingsley Family assumed as the ruling family in the kingdom.

By that time, it was too late for the Fotia Legion to make any move as everyone took a side of the living Kingsley Family rather than the dead Queen. Even if they found out about it, who would rule the kingdom if they managed to get rid of the Kingsley Family?

Queen Rosalie did not have a husband let alone a descendant to inherit the kingdom. That was why the nobles united as one and supported the Kingsley Family. If the civil war broke out, the neighboring kingdom would take this chance to attack the kingdom. It was the worst scenario for the noble.

As for why the Ambrose Family could be saved, it was thanks to the Commander of the Fotia Legion who at that time was also Crystal\'s friend. While the Commander did not manage to save half of the family members, he saved the other half without others knowing about it.

Later on, the Fotia Legion was disbanded by King Robert who was just assumed as a King. Despite the opposition of the nobles, King Robert looked at the strongest legion as a threat to his throne. He disbanded the legion and started hunting the members that were loyal to Queen Rosalie.

That was what Ashley told him about the Lionax Kingdom\'s history. Because of this, the remains of the Fotia Legion had been moving secretly, plotting against the Lionax Kingdom with the remainder of the Ambrose Family from the dark.

As they headed toward another place, Tang Shaoyang asked Crystal through his mind, \'Do you know this Duran?\'

"I don\'t know him but he should be my grandson," Crystal\'s reply surprised him. He then looked toward Ashley, "Does that mean Ashley is your great-granddaughter?"

"She is!" Crystal did not deny it.

"Does that mean I am your in-law?" Tang Shaoyang found this relationship funny.

"Technically you are my in-law and also my Master." Crystal followed his random talk and replied.

He followed Duran through the paved path and headed toward the main residence. Upon arriving at the main residence, they walked toward the west wing building. He thought they would be brought toward a private building to have a conversation. However, to his surprise, they were brought to a dining hall.

Dozens of maids preparing the food on a long table. He observed the table and counted the chairs. There are fifty chairs in total, decorated well and with a candle between the dishes.

"Before we talk, we have prepared the food for you two. Also, you don\'t have to disguise yourself in front of me. My daughter has told me everything that happened in the other world, I am grateful that you did not kill my daughter," Duran smiled at Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang nodded as he started to take off the armor. Taking off the armor was easier as he only needed to touch the part of the armor and stored it into his inventory, "You don\'t have to thank me. I have my reason to not kill her and her subordinates. But aren\'t you angry that your knights were killed by me?"

Ashtera Legion\'s knights were trained by the Ambrose Family. In other words, all the knights in the knight quarter were part of the Ambrose Family. Most of them were orphans from the war or the oppressed commoners. The Ambrose Family gathered them and trained them.

Duran shook his head, "I feel bad for the deceased, but it\'s something normal in a battle and war. We will mourn for them." The middle-aged man\'s gaze changed sharp, "If you are still our enemy, then I have to avenge them. However, now you have become a potential ally for us."

Duran said he was a potential ally, meaning he was not their ally yet. The underlying meaning was so clear that he could understand it immediately. Tang Shaoyang did not faze away from the middle-aged man\'s sharp gaze which soon disappeared as a gentle smile resurfaced again.

Tang Shaoyang could feel the strong aura shrouding the man. Ashley told him that her father was an Epic. His blood was bubbling because he wanted to fight this middle-aged man. He craved an equal opponent since his level increased dramatically. Even the King of a Zombie Kingdom was nothing in front of him. Now he found an opponent that could compete with him.

"You haven\'t eaten yet, right? Let\'s eat first and we will talk later," Duran offered him to sit as the middle-aged man took the main seat at the other side.

Tang Shaoyang looked at the table. The table was filled with dishes from the other end to this side. He did not think that four of them could finish all of this. On top of that, Tang Shaoyang was kinda overwhelmed. He did not know where to sit, \'Should I sit at the other side or should I sit in the middle? The food I want is in the middle. Or should I sit close to them?\'

—It seems we have a lot to teach him about the etiquette or else she would embarrass us

Rosalie the Flame Queen commented inside Tang Shaoyang. Her words were directed to Tang Shaoyang while speaking to her friend, Crystal. Everyone could read his mind and the same for Tang Shaoyang.

—He would never embarrass us if he stays strong. You just need to be strong to be respected.

Those words were from Karan. The Orc Warrior never thought of needing to learn etiquette. The strong would always be respected, the iron rule. They did not care about manners.

—You brute would never understand. There\'s a thing called manners. Our Master will be a laughing stock if he does not know the basic etiquette. We don\'t want that to happen, right?

Rosalie the Flame Queen fired back. Since the appearance of Rosalie, It had been Rosalie and Karan who were arguing. Zowen was never involved in the argument since then.

—But I agree with Karan though. If our Master is strong, no one would dare to laugh at him even if he does not know the basic etiquette.

Crystal\'s voice echoed in his head. While the spirits were arguing, Tang Shaoyang took the seat in the middle. He agreed with Karan, he did not need to care what other people thought of him.
