Chapter 759 - 759 Can I Have Her?

759 Can I Have Her?

The wooden giant slowly rose to its feet to reveal Slog lying motionless on the ground below it. Slog’s nose and mouth had been completely flattened into an unrecognizable mush, and he was clearly unconscious. Even the solid stone ground beneath his body had been severely cracked by the force of the impact.

His Highness... He won!

The entire palace had fallen deathly silent as everyone stared at the wooden giant, who was standing at the center of the palace like an imposing War God. Everyone was struck by the illusion that the War God from three years ago had returned, and there was only unadulterated shock in their eyes.

The 5th-tier knight, Slog, had been insta-killed by the third prince[1]!

If this hadn’t happened right before their eyes, they would’ve never believed it to be possible!

They had indeed thought that the battle would end in a matter of seconds, but not with a result like this!

The king’s eyes lit up, and he immediately relaxed his white-knuckled grip on the armrests of his throne. His tightly furrowed brows also gradually loosened as an elated smile appeared on his face.

H... How is that possible?! Sean clenched his fists as he looked at the unconscious Slog, and then turned his gaze toward the imposing wooden giant as rage and astonishment surged through his heart.

Josh withdrew his gaze as he turned toward the king to gauge the latter’s reaction. His eyes narrowed as he caught sight of the pleased look on the king’s face, and as he slowly twisted the ring on his left hand, he thought to himself, Do you no longer want to be an idiot, Yuri? You should’ve just stayed an idiot; do you think you can compete with me now?

“Useless trash!” Gajeel looked at the wooden giant and repressed his urge to rise to his feet. Even as a wooden statue, the bastard who had chased him around on the demon islands for three days and three nights was still as abhorrent as ever.

All of the representatives from the different races were looking forward to seeing Yuri bring humiliation to the royal family of the Roth Empire, and they were all rather disappointed by this unexpected turn of events.

Irina unable to contain her surprise as she burst into involuntary laughter. “Heh... He’s not just all talk, after all. But he’s still nowhere near Alex’s level.”

This... is a real Gundam! It’s a Transformer! Holy f*ck! Mag almost sprang to his feet in shock. There was probably no one in this world who was more astonished than him right now.

A 15-year-old boy just invented a functional Gundam in this magic world? What the hell is going on?!

Wait, why do I feel like he’s stealing my job? A thought suddenly occurred to Mag. Wasn’t he supposed to be the one who was shocking this world?

Mag turned his gaze toward the wooden giant again, and carefully thought to himself, This Gundam really is quite brilliant. Its strength level should be based on the power output of its internal magic spell formation, and it must be very energy-consuming to operate, but this is already extraordinary for a prototype. If it can be refined further, it would become a weapon of mass destruction on the battlefield in the future.

The entire palace was still in complete silence.

“Mushroom Head won!” Amy yelled with elation as she raised her little hands up into the air, completely shattering the stunned silence.

Everyone in the palace immediately turned toward her, and Amy put down her little hands in a sheepish manner as she murmured, “Yay...”

Amy’s outburst provided a reminder to the stunned servant, and he hurriedly yelled, “His Highness, the third prince, has emerged victorious!”

“His Highness won! This is amazing!”

“Indeed! His Highness has been content to live in the shadow of his two brothers all along, but he’s really given us a massive surprise here! I think he truly has shown us a glimmer of General Alex during his heyday!”

“Such an intricately crafted weapon really is worthy of being called battle armor!”

All of the officials also returned to their senses, and on this occasion, they were not stingy at all with their words of praise. It seemed that they had already forgotten all of the derogatory words they had directed at Yuri, and were now regarding him as the future star of the empire.

Of course, there was no lack of officials who were harboring more sinister intentions.

Mag furrowed his brows as he caught sight of the sinister expressions on the faces of the officials from Josh and Sean’s factions. It appeared that Yuri’s splendid display had already made him some enemies, all of whom were beginning to plot against him.

Yuri ignored all of the fawning praise being directed at him, turning to Amy instead as he pointed a finger at his own forehead to acknowledge her.

Amy waved back at him before whispering to Mag, “Father, do you also think that Mushroom Head looks better like this?”

“I do.” Mag nodded in agreement. He was very pleased with his daughter’s tastes. He was worried that she would find his big head adorable or something like that.

The king looked at the wooden giant before nodding with a smile as he said, “Well done, Yuri, I really like your present. You can come out now.”

“Yes, Father.” A series of cracks sounded as the wooden giant disassembled down the middle, transforming into a staircase that led to the ground while the top step was right beneath Yuri’s feet.

Yuri’s slowly walked down the staircase, following which the staircase reverted back into a black wooden cube that appeared to be completely mundane and nondescript.

This was also quite an astonishing scene to everyone.

The seemingly ordinary block of wood was now completely different in everyone’s eyes.

It was like a miraculous magic box, one that could grant powerful abilities even to normal humans, and it was clearly very tempting to everyone.

Sean slowly calmed down, and a thought suddenly occurred to him as he looked at the block of wood behind Yuri. The notion took root firmly in his mind and refused to be discarded.

Even a weakling like Yuri can use that thing to defeat Slog; if we can produce more of these boxes, then conquering the world will be an extremely simple task!

Sean could feel his heart thumping in his chest. If he could have this box, then all of his aspirations could come true in the near future.

He wanted to conquer the world, to have the entire continent bow to his feet—even those proud and haughty giant dragons.

That was an extremely alluring prospect to him.

There was an endless supply of commoners, and as long as there were enough of these boxes, it didn’t matter how many of them died.

After all of the representatives from the other races calmed down, this thought clearly also occurred to them, and their expressions turned rather grave.

During the past years, the human race had never displayed any intentions of embarking on conquests, and was most intent on guarding their own existing territory. However, the invention of this box could completely transform the situation on the entire Norland Continent.

This was something that could transform ordinary beings into 5th-tier warriors; it was something that could change this entire world!

And it had been invented by the most forgettable third prince!

Yuri wasn’t expressing any smugness as he extended a respectful bow toward the king. “I wish Father a long and healthy life.”

The king nodded with a pleased expression before smiling as he asked, “Yuri, you’ve presented a fantastic present to me today. What reward would you like for your efforts? I’ll do my best to satisfy you.”

“A reward?” Yuri glanced at Irina before pointing at Amy as he asked, “Then, can I have her?”
