Chapter 36: Another Ten Years of Life
Translator: editor3
This person was naturally Lei Luo.
He had come to the king’s bedside.
The ninth-level elemental mages who had been secretly guarding the king had noticed it at the first moment, but they could not move at all. It was as if their bodies had been deprived of control.
They were extremely shocked, but they knew that the existence of this mysterious mage was the invincible pseudo-ultimate mage who had saved His Majesty four years ago.
Therefore, they were not worried that this mysterious mage would harm His Majesty.
The king seemed to have woken up and opened his eyes. He turned his head with great difficulty and looked at the distorted figure standing not far away.
“Four years ago, when Senior saved the Faroe Kingdom and was in danger, I never had the chance to thank you.” The King moved his lips and let out a very weak voice.
This was already his limit.
Lei Luo heard it clearly and said calmly, “I saved you because you are still a wise king, and for the sake of the people of the Faroe Kingdom.”
“I know, I know.”
The king said weakly, “I am already very satisfied to have been able to live for another five years and see the Faroe kingdom flourish again. However, after I leave, my son will still be too young. If he does anything that will anger the heavens and the people, Senior, please teach him a good lesson.”
“Alright, I’m not here to listen to your nonsense,” Lei Luo said.
Then, with a wave of his hand, a drop of jade-green medicinal liquid fell into the king’s mouth.
In an instant, the king’s entire body trembled and a rich life force was emitted. It was as if a dry field had encountered heavy rain. The king’s originally aged face quickly became rosy.
Although his hair was still snow-white, his life force had become much more vigorous.
Lei Luo had used a bottle of spirit liquid gifted by the Wood G.o.d. It was the reward he had signed in with the system, and there was only this small bottle.
The main function was to contain a rich life force. If someone had been sick for a long time and had exhausted their blood and qi, one drop would be enough for them to completely recover.
However, the king’s situation was different. Under the poison magic of the fog temple, his body had suffered irreversible damage.
To be more precise, his lifespan had shortened.
He could have lived to ninety years old, but now he could only live to fifty years old.
Although he was a n.o.ble king and had used all kinds of precious medicines and herbs to recuperate his body, he was still unable to stop the loss of vitality.
If it was a commoner, under that kind of situation, they would be lucky if they could live for a year or so.
Now, Lei Luo was using the Wood G.o.d’s spiritual liquid to replenish the king’s life force.
These few drops of Wood G.o.d’s spiritual liquid should be able to last the king for ten years.
Lei Luo thought that he had done enough.
If it were not for Wei, he would not have attacked again.
After he had given the king the medicine, he turned around and left without saying a word.
The king felt a huge change in his body. It was as if the weakness had completely disappeared and was replaced by an extremely vigorous energy.
“What… What happened to me?”
The king’s eyes widened.
Wasn’t he about to die from an illness?
Just now, the mysterious mage had fed him a little green potion, and his body had undergone such a huge change.
“Thank you, Senior.”
The king sat up and looked at the place where Lei Luo had disappeared, his face showing endless grat.i.tude.
This was the second life that the mysterious mage had given him.
“Your Majesty, Why are you up?”
At this moment, Queen Lina’s figure appeared in the room.
The guards could move again after Lei Luo had left, and at the same time, they also noticed the great changes in His Majesty’s body.
“Your Majesty, you… You’re better?”
The queen looked at the king, whose face was ruddy. She knew that not long ago, he was lying on the bed, about to die.
She wondered if she was dreaming, having a beautiful dream.
“Queen, I’m fine, I’m really fine. Which mysterious mage saved my life again?”
“Mysterious mage?”
The king gently grabbed the queen’s back and nodded.
The queen finally understood why His Majesty had suddenly recovered. She immediately said happily, “Your Majesty, I want to pray for that mysterious mage’s blessing.”
“Yes, that is what we should do.”
The king nodded.
Not long after, Prince Ling also arrived. When he saw that his father had completely recovered, he was so excited that tears flowed down his face.
During this period of time, he had been under too much pressure.
Whenever he thought about how he was carrying such a heavy burden, he could not sleep, eat, or feel at ease.
It was really not easy to be a king.
The next day, the news that the sick king had suddenly recovered spread.
Countless ministers were shocked when they saw the healthy king.
The king had not been in good health recently. It had been a long time since he had partic.i.p.ated in any discussions. The prince had been presiding over them.
Now that they saw that the king’s face was ruddy and looking extremely healthy, they could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
This meant that the Faroe Kingdom could once again be stable for a period of time.
After all, the crown prince had yet to reach adulthood. If he succeeded the throne, no one knew where the Faroe Kingdom would go in the future. And now, the Faroe Kingdom was at a crucial time of prosperity.
