Shang Ke leaned against his pillow, staring at the holographic screen before him. The independence ceremony was being broadcasted.
In the square, it was crowded and also lively. Ravel sat in a shuttle car, guards in camouflage flanked him on both sides. The sky was ringing with gun salutes, which burst into colorful flowers in an unprecedentedly grand scene.
Shang Ke felt that, if a man were to be as accomplished as Ravel, then there truly is value in life. King of an Empire, leader of the masses, the true epitome of the first in the world.
"Sire Ravel, no, he should be addressed as 'His Majesty' now. His Majesty is really too cool!" The sister nurse praised him with stars in her eyes.
Shang Ke nodded his head in agreement. He reluctantly admitted that Ravel looked handsome to a certain degree.
Ravel ascended onto the tall platform and started to give his speech. His appearance was grave, and his eyes firm. The strictness of a soldier and the elegance of a noble mixed and gave him a unique charm, causing reverence to be born in people's hearts.
When he loudly declared the termination of Cruz's regime and establishment of the new empire, everyone started to cheer. They cried, laughed, and hugged each other, all sorts of complicated emotions running through their mind.
Shang Ke wasn't someone of this world, so he hadn't experienced Cruz's regime of darkness and brutality. However, after seeing their sincere outpourings of joy, he can't help but feel moved.
In fact, it feels pretty good to be a hero. Although he could only be regarded as a "fake" hero, but the fact the underwent torture is a fact. So, for better or worse, even though he didn't contribute anything, he had still worked hard. Shang Ke felt as though he could also "rejoice and celebrate with everyone" for a little.
At this moment, Ravel suddenly raised his head, and with a burning gaze seemed to stare at a certain direction through the screen.
"Ah!" The sister nurse let out a muffled scream, and excitedly gushed to Shang Ke, "Young Master Cage, His Majesty must be looking at you!"
Can you please not joke? He was obviously using his expression to conquer the world.
When the sister nurse saw that his expression was placid, she suddenly grew nervous and walked to his side, carefully inspecting the instrument's data and asking, "Young Master Cage, how do you feel? Is there any discomfort anywhere?"
Shang Ke doubtfully looked at the nurse, not understanding why was she so nervous. Wasn't he just fine? If he had a problem, then he would have long since undergone "beautification". (The magical Perfect Expression Pack, will let you become more beautiful with every torture~~)
