A rare magical miracle in the world

But upon witnessing such a scene, Cat Lulu immediately chickened out.

In addition, she could feel that Hailbo’s legs were trembling, just as scared as she was.

Cat Lulu: Hailbo, how did you chicken out too?!

"Swoosh!"

Hailbo shifted his gaze away: ’Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Believe in yourself, I will surely succeed!’

The teacher is so powerful, since he dared to send me here, he must have a foolproof plan.

There is no reason for failure, impossible!

"Hoo~~"

Thinking of this, Hailbo immediately steadied his mind.

He lifted his head, his gaze landing on the throne ahead, where a towering figure sat, He, was the Master of Miracles of Aolai Country—King of Aolai.

The King of Aolai was huge, at least two meters tall, yet his appearance was no different from that of a middle-aged human male.

With meticulously combed white hair, a combination of dominance and majesty circulated between his brows, and even without a trace of Miracle Power fluctuating from his body, he still managed to impose an invisible pressure on Hailbo.

"The foreign minister Hailbo, greets Your Highness the King of Aolai!"

Hailbo’s manners were meticulous, faultless: "As a diplomat sent by Yatun, here is the letter from our king written by his own hand, please examine it, Your Highness the King of Aolai."

Kong was about to take the letter from Hailbo, but then King of Aolai raised his hand.

"Father?"

"I’ve heard, Saros is in Yatun, is that right?"

"His Majesty is correct, the teacher is my Yatun’s uncle king, a person close to and trusted by our king."

"Hmph."

A cold snort made all the Miracle Citizens present turn their heads, sensing their ruler’s discontent and glared at Hailbo simultaneously.

"Umm..."

At this moment, Hailbo only felt waves of invisible pressure weighing down upon his shoulders.

His legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, every bone in his body creaked, every nerve taut as though crazed, followed by bone-piercing pain.

"You there!"

Aolai Kong frowned tightly, she knew why her father was angry, wanting to aid him, yet she dared not defy the King of Aolai.

At that time, it was up to Hailbo himself.

Having been sent by Saros to the Mountains, on a diplomatic mission to Aolai Country, he ought to have some skills, rather than find himself killed in the royal court before even speaking a word.

"Meow?!"

Cat Lulu watched nervously; she wasn’t being targeted, so she couldn’t feel the pressure Hailbo was under.

However, Hailbo’s expression of agony made Cat Lulu extremely anxious, she bit down hard on the hem of Hailbo’s pants, cheering him on in silence.

At the same time, she looked for an opportunity to activate the ’Cat Carriage’ and flee back to Yatun Duchy.

"Lulu."

But, Hailbo immediately gave Cat Lulu a look, signaling: ’Do not use the Cat Carriage, I’d rather die here than cowardly return.’

Half a month’s companionship had given the duo extremely high rapport.

With just a glance, they could understand each other’s thoughts.

"Aolai, Aolai Country, is this how it is?"

Hailbo suddenly gripped the rod in his hands, gritting his teeth while enduring the severe pain, he looked up and questioned: "Being sent by Yatun, even if there are myriad issues, how can it be right for subjects to humiliate the envoy while His Majesty just watches and laughs?"

Hailbo didn’t bother with the empty talk of not killing envoys during wartime.

Nor did he say ’Are you declaring war on Yatun?’

If he really dared to say that, knowing the character of the King of Aolai as he did, the king would surely respond without hesitation with ’Yes, I am waging war on you!’

Therefore, faced with such a formidable ruler of a powerful nation, Hailbo had to employ a circuitous strategy.

"Hoo~~"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the pressure, incredibly, was retracted at once.

Upon the royal court, ministers on both sides frowned deeply, looking dissatisfiedly at Hailbo. They had understood the meaning of Hailbo’s words, which had boldly touched the most taboo aspect of the Miracle Citizens.

The King of Aolai hasn’t made a judgment, yet you, as his subjects, are treating an envoy like this.

I ask, was it King of Aolai who ordered you to act thus?

Even if he was indeed to be killed, it ought to be done personally by the King of Aolai, as befitting Hailbo’s status and in accordance with proper rites!

"Good."

The King of Aolai waved his hand, indicating the ministers should not act: "You put it well."

"It’s been a long time since a man as courageous as you visited my Aolai Country."

The King of Aolai shifted his position: "Bring the item here."

"Clap clap."

Beside King of Aolai, a tall woman dressed in white with black hair, looking as ethereal as a Heavenly Maiden, clapped her hands.

Subsequently, a group of men with horns brought forth a massive Bronze Cauldron.

Beneath the Bronze Cauldron flames burned out of thin air, and inside boiled hot oil, but it was no ordinary oil. It was a special substance capable of killing even a Miracle Citizen.

"You’ve got the guts to come here as an envoy to my Aolai, then you must know our rules, don’t you?"

"Starting now," King of Aolai said: "If you utter one wrong word, I’ll throw you in there, to be boiled."

"Good!"

Without almost any hesitation, Hailbo immediately responded: "If there is an issue with me, I am willing to be cooked by You, unrelated to Yatun, or our king."

Hailbo quickly distanced his own mistakes from Yatun, he knew Bailuo valued him.

But because of that, he couldn’t cause trouble for Yatun.

Presently, Yatun had no grounds to challenge Aolai Country, and the King of Aolai was certainly no match for Immortal Hawk, Morgan, and the like; he was far too strong.

"Disentangling yourself so swiftly, it seems you are quite loyal to your own king," the King of Aolai developed a slight interest in Hailbo. If it were someone from another country, he wouldn’t have been so talkative, but Saros...
