Chapter 634: His Last Words
A piece of news that caused an uproar across the entire populace spread rapidly throughout the continent, as the sovereigns of each major territory were the ones personally announcing it—a piece of news the people had never expected.
It was said that the continent was stepping into a new era, one where they would unite under a single banner. The outside world had now opened, and its influence might soon reach the continent, making unity all the more critical.
The entire continent would be unified under one great empire, with Aldrian as the first emperor. His official coronation would take place a week after the marriage of Aldrey and Irene. From that moment on, the entire hierarchy of the continent would change.
The empires would become kingdoms, while the others remained the same. With the creation of a great empire uniting the full strength of the Barisan continent, it was hoped that peace and stability would be maintained amid the presence of powerful forces from beyond the continent seeking to enter.
Although this news caused an uproar across the continent, just as the leaders had anticipated, the entire populace welcomed the development positively. No one opposed the plan, instead, many supported it deeply and embraced it wholeheartedly.
With someone like Aldrian leading the continent, the people believed it would truly be safe from any threat. Order would be strengthened, and their lives would improve because of it. Even without Aldrian becoming emperor, crime across the continent had already declined. His name alone was enough to create that effect.
So what would happen if he were enthroned as the highest authority?
Those who harbored evil intentions would be even more afraid to act.
The people believed in Aldrian’s moral compass and his sense of righteousness, trusting his credibility and integrity because of his track record.
They also believed that Aldrian would lead the continent to new heights, as the strongest individual in the land. They had even heard that those from outside the continent were reluctant to offend him.
All in all, the creation of this empire and Aldrian’s enthronement were events awaited by all, and the people were eager for it.
