In the palace, the news of John waking up quickly spread throughout the entire royal residence. The awakening of this hero signified that the celebration banquet for the Kingdom Brawl could finally take place. For the Hecha Kingdom, despite ranking only fourth this time, it was undoubtedly a significant breakthrough! Previously, the Hecha Kingdom had ranked among the bottom three for four consecutive times, a performance that was truly disheartening. It was precisely for this reason that King Napoleon decided to reward John, as he had excelled in this fierce competition, bringing honor and benefits to the nation.
After this chaotic brawl, the resources acquired by the Hecha Kingdom were abundant, far exceeding everyone's expectations! King Napoleon was even considered highly likely to become the first ruler in nearly ten generations to step into the Sanctuary. Just thinking about the endless life and immense power of the Sanctuary filled Napoleon with a strong sense of admiration for John, standing below on the stage, and he felt it was only right to grant him a reward.
Thus, Napoleon solemnly addressed the gathering: "John Stephen, by virtue of my supreme authority as king, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Marquis. I hope you will always uphold the spirit of knighthood and continue to contribute your light and warmth to the Hecha Kingdom. At this moment, I designate Blink County under your jurisdiction. As long as the glory of Hecha Kingdom shines upon this land, your family shall forever be its rulers, passing down through generations!"
John bowed and knelt on one knee before King Napoleon, swearing allegiance: "The Stephen Family shall always strive under your leadership, King Napoleon, fighting for the Hecha Kingdom until our last drop of blood is shed. Our swords shall forever be pointed at your enemies."
Outside the capital, a grand and magnificent procession was underway. John led his elite troops at the forefront, followed closely by numerous carts laden with rewards—over a hundred in total. This procession moved like a long dragon, majestically heading towards Blink County.
Now elevated to Governor of Blink County, John felt it necessary not to linger too long in the capital. He had to quickly proceed to his new post to report and formally take possession of his territory. Although Napoleon had publicly stated he would not hold past nobles accountable after ascending to the throne, the Duvasse Family of Blink County could hardly escape unscathed. After all, this family was closely tied to the former Third Prince; how could they evade retribution from the New King? Once a prominent Marquis family, the Duvasse Family had now been demoted to an Earl family, with sixty percent of their territory allocated to John.
This arrangement resolved a dilemma that had long troubled John—how to ensure that all one hundred of his sons would inherit sufficient land. Moreover, even Natasha's territory could now connect seamlessly with this newly acquired land, forming an expansive domain. It is no exaggeration to say that John's bold venture had yielded a fortune that an ordinary family would take centuries to amass!
Even more gratifying was that King Napoleon, wise and benevolent, recognized the courage displayed by John's soldiers during battle and their immense sacrifices. To honor their achievements and further strengthen John's power, the king specifically selected fifteen hundred battle-hardened elites from those who survived countless life-and-death trials during the war and incorporated them into John's ranks.
