Sirius showed Drake what it meant to be childish, clearly accepting Drake's gift, but not admitting defeat at all.
In the end, he insisted on having a competition with Drake. If Drake lost, he would have to break up with Stella.
Drake understood that he had to let Sirius vent his dissatisfaction, so he agreed to play with the king.
However, it was impossible for him to lose. If he lost, this king would definitely force him to leave Stella. Drake had never doubted this.
So in the first round, Drake simply subdued Sirius.
According to Stella, Sirius hadn't been her opponent since before she went abroad to study. Naturally, he couldn't win against Drake.
As a Blazer with the ability of fire, Sirius had no resistance in front of Drake at all.
However, Sirius used this as a reason, saying that Drake was cheating and demanding another match.
Then he was easily suppressed by Drake in arm wrestling. The king got lost in his own imperial capital during a race, and only returned to the castle with the help of the guards... He couldn't even win against Drake once in rock-paper-scissors.
Then, the unrelenting Sirius was suppressed by Astrea. Drake, who had been pestered for half a day, could finally rest properly.
The next day, Sirius, who had been educated all night, finally became honest. But even so, he still proposed that Drake had to complete his mission before he would recognize his relationship with Stella.
The content of the mission was to win the war with the neighboring country of Quelkulan.
The relationship between the Vermillion Kingdom and the Quelkulan Kingdom was very complicated.
Hundreds of years ago, the Vermillion Kingdom had gained independence from Quelkulan through war. And since then, the two countries had forged a blood feud.
After all, the Cobrand royal family of Quelkulan had used the method of massacring members of the Vermillion family to force the other party to give up independence.
And in the following hundreds of years, the two countries had their descendants and citizens inherit the hatred.
In particular, the two countries had been at war to compete for the natural gas fields between them.
And the one who changed all of this was none other than the seemingly unreliable Sirius.
Thirty years ago, Sirius, who had just ascended the throne, broke through Quelkulan's defenses alone, came to King Krev of Quelkulan, and generously requested to end the centuries-old feud with a personal challenge.
King Krev was also an enlightened monarch, and the centuries-old hatred between the two countries ended in that generation.
Now, although there was still a national war, it had become something like a joint military exercise between the two countries.
However, the losing party had to be responsible for the maintenance of the natural gas field facilities shared by the two countries for the next year.
Of course, the winning party would pay a sum of aid money for the construction and maintenance of infrastructure. It was equivalent to neither side losing anything.
Drake didn't expect Sirius to have such a glorious history. But after thinking about it carefully, that was likely the work of Queen Astrea.
Stella also particularly agreed with this point.
And what Drake had to do was to participate in the representative battle that was about to begin, and then defeat the Blazer of the Quelkulan Kingdom.
He heard that the head of the other party's delegation would be Prince John of Quelkulan, and his Device was also very interesting, a golden warhorse.
And his ability was a path concept interference type, which allowed him to launch a charge in various environments.
It sounded quite interesting, but for Drake, it was just interesting!
Sirius probably understood this as well. It was just that he was really unwilling to watch his most precious daughter run off with a brat.
And so, while Drake was waiting for the representative battle to begin, he was also touring her hometown with Stella.
Stella was in a very good mood. Drake had been accepted by her family.
Astrea was very satisfied with this young man who was excellent in all aspects, and of course, the effect of the beauty ointment was also a reason.
As for Sirius, his attitude was no longer important after Astrea nodded.
So these days, she was like a happy elf, strolling around the imperial capital with Drake. It should be said that this was one of the few proper dates for the two of them.
Drake didn't expect Stella to be so popular in this country. Although it was said that the Vermillion royal family had amazing popularity among the people, Drake could feel that Stella was special.
The entire country was doting on the girl from the bottom of their hearts, regarding her as the country's treasure.
This was not only because the girl was a princess, but also because Stella regarded everyone as her family, and she deserved this love more than anyone else.
Then everyone knew that the young man next to the princess was her boyfriend.
They hoped that Stella could be happy more than anyone else, so Drake had heard countless times in the past two days words like "If you let down the princess, I will xxxx" and "If you make the princess sad, just wait for xxxxx."
However, apart from these, Drake was still very happy these two days.
In addition to natural gas, the export of flowers and related products was also a pillar industry of Vermillion. So the Vermillion Kingdom had vast flower fields.
When strolling in the flower fields with Stella, Drake felt that his entire heart was emptied.
But there were always people who would interrupt Drake's relaxation. However, this time, something that Drake couldn't ignore had really happened.
Ryumei Temple had been attacked!
When Drake heard this news, he was first shocked at who was so bold, and then almost crushed his phone.
Because this attack was likely related to him.
"Then I'll send you the information about this incident first. The Great Elder said that you don't need to blame yourself for this, anyway, the other party didn't cause any losses.
However, the other party won't stop targeting your actions next. You better be prepared."
Drake was silent for a while, saying, "I understand. Thank you for your help. Also, please tell the Great Elder that I will handle this matter properly."
Saying this, Drake hung up the phone. Then he opened the document that the other party had sent.
The culprit's name was Oer-Girr, one of the Twelve Apostles of Rebellion, whom Drake was familiar with. His title was , and he was also a known Demon Person.
Seeing this title, Drake immediately thought of Hiraga Reisen. If Drake guessed correctly, he was Hiraga Reisen's true form.
No wonder it was speculated that Oer-Girr attacked Ryumei Temple because of Drake.
Oer-Girr's position in Rebellion was very special, because he used his ability to control thousands of high-ranking officials and chaebols around the world, and was Rebellion's most important spy.
But just two days ago, he suddenly released the control of all the puppets. Then, the next day, the attack on Ryumei Temple happened.
However, he had clearly underestimated the power of Ryumei Temple. Although he had manipulated many martial monks to kill each other, the Great Elder had repelled him in time.
Although they were both Demon People, the gap between the Puppet King and the current Fighting God was too large, and the battle ended almost instantly.
Oer-Girr probably didn't want to fight the Great Elder head-on either, so he retreated directly after realizing the difference between the two.
So apart from the manipulated martial monks suffering some injuries, Ryumei Temple didn't suffer much loss.
But this was enough to make Drake angry. When he had just come to this world, Ryumei Temple had taken him in and taught him martial arts.
Now that he was attacked because of himself, how could Drake not be angry?
"Puppet King, huh! We should settle our old and new scores!"
