The Tiny Lina Maya

Chapter 152 - Be Our King

Before Lina could answer Azka's question, they suddenly heard the news of the King's sudden death!

And immediately, all the Orcs in the palace rushed to the King's room, and knelt outside the room.

...........

The body of Martin Noah has been taken out of the room and will be taken to the Holy Mountain.

Also seen are the guards who follow, with their steps that look neat.

News of the King's death soon spread throughout the city.

Lina who did not know what harue was doing, could only stand on the spot. But then Uriel grabbed his hand and whispered, "Follow me."

"Uriel's big hands, they're dry and warm." In her heart, Lina could also feel the sadness that Uriel was feeling.

Then Lina followed Uriel who was walking ahead, along with Azka who was beside Uriel.

After arriving at the Temple, Alan Rebes the high priest brought his servants to pray for the deceased Martin Noah, after which he washed the body of the King's corpse with holy water. Then Uriel and Azka took the body up to the Holy Mountain.

Other people could not go up to the Holy Mountain. They could only stand at the foot of the mountain and wait.

They all stared at the Sacred Mountain with wisdom.

In the eyes of all Orcs, the Sacred Mountain was a Holy Land. They strongly believe in the mountain, and assume that the Holy Mountain is a mountain favored by the Gods. It was as if to them the mountain was a medium to be able to get in touch with the Gods, as long as they entered this Sacred Mountain.

Only Lina thought otherwise, "The mountain they saved is no different from ordinary mountains. But there is a little different, the hot spring on this mountain that feels good. If only there were a hot spring near Mount Batu, my whole family would have gone to the hot spring."

As Lina's mind was thinking about the hot springs, Uriel and Azka walked down the mountain. This indicates that the King's funeral is over.

Now Martin's extraordinary life has been buried just like that on the Holy Mountain.

From now on, there was no more Tiger Orc named Martin Noah, in this Orc world.

At this moment Lina stared towards the Sacred Mountain while thinking again, "I don't know, how the two of them handled the corpse of the King. Orcs never bury their bodies. I also didn't see any smoke, which means the body wasn't cremated. Or, did they sink the body into the water?"

But the hot spring was the only place where there was water on the Sacred Mountain. It was also impossible if they drowned the corpse into a hot spring.

Moreover, the City of Sun could not stand for a day, without the existence of a King. The new king's candidate must be determined immediately.

Generally, the new King will be personally chosen by the previous King, and after that must pass the examination of the Temple first, in order to occupy the throne of the king.

But now Martin Noah suddenly died, and did not have time to determine who would replace him.

The last person he met before his death was Uriel. Alan Rebes immediately looked at Uriel and asked, "Did he tell you before the King died, who will be the next king?"

As he asked this, his eyes were staring at Azka who was not far away from him.

Both were sons of Martin, who was equally qualified to inherit the throne. If Uriel were to ascend the throne, Azka would definitely gain nothing.

Hearing that, Uriel said calmly, "If I say that you want to make me the next king, would you believe me?"

Xion Grisli was the first Orc to stand up and exclaim, "Of course we believe what the second Prince said!"

Then all the guards shouted in unison, "We believe in the second Prince!"

Their voices echoed and sounded amazing. Making the other Orcs who heard it, too afraid to open their mouths.

But it made Alan Rebes dislike, he hated such primitive-minded Orcs, but he still maintained a loving expression on his face.

Uriel remained silent, looking at the troops.

General Xion continued saying again in a loud voice, "His Highness the second Prince, you are not only very meritorious in battle, but also very intelligent. You are the best successor. The first king will love you, so of course the first King will definitely choose you as the new king. So, please don't disappoint your father's expectations."

After saying so, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said again, "Please Second Prince, be our King!"

Nearly a thousand guards behind General Xion immediately knelt down in unison, their voices deafening.

"BROUCH!"

Lina who was beside Uriel, was stunned upon seeing this.

Unlike Azka, in her heart, she was currently laughing at herself.

"Haha! Sure enough, everyone only saw the brilliance of big brother. No matter how much effort I have put in, in the end they will only still see the second Prince in their eyes!"

Before Alan Rebes can accept Uriel as the next king, Uriel must qualify first.

The two conditions were, the spirit level of his Beast must be above five-star, and it had been recognized by the Gods.

At this moment Alan looked at Uriel and said, "I remember that you have only reached the fourth star, so, if you want to inherit the throne, you have to get the approval of the Gods."

In order to conceal his true strength, Uriel accidentally suppressed his Beast spirit aura, thus making herself look like she had only reached four-star.

Uriel asked, "What should I do?"

Alan Rebes smiled as he said, "It's very easy, as long as you drink the holy water given by the Gods, and you're still fine after one day, it means you deserve to be on the throne."

"PLOKS! PLOK! PLOK!"

After that, he clapped his hand and told his servant to bring him holy water immediately, and placed it in front of Uriel.

When Lina saw the bowl of water that she said was holy water, she spontaneously asked, "Will after drinking this water be okay?"

Hearing that, Alan said, "If the Gods bless the second Prince as heir, the second Prince will definitely be fine. But if the Gods did not agree to it, this bowl of water would make him suffer, and in serious cases, could make the second Prince die."

Hearing what the high priest said, Lina felt very scared.

"The ghost must also know what's in this bowl of water. If the high priest secretly added poison, would Uriel still have to drink it?!"

Upon thinking about it, Lina immediately grasped and slowly pulled Uriel's finger, intending to advise Uriel not to drink the water.

Uriel suddenly looked at Lina and asked, "Do you want me to inherit the throne?"

"Aah?" The question from Uriel, instantly made Lina dumbfounded.

"This is the second time on the same day, I'm being asked a question like this."

The first one to ask him like that was Azka.

As Lina thought about this, she stared at Azka, and she was staring at Lina and Uriel, with an expression that seemed unusual.

"I don't understand this kind of chaotic political struggle at all, I just hope that Uriel will survive. This bowl of holy water was clearly a trap. If Uriel keeps drinking it, it'll all be over! Uriel can't drink this water!"

After thinking for a moment, Lina immediately said to Uriel, "Don't drink it! No need to inherit the throne. I just want to go home."

Hearing what her little girl said, Uriel laughed, her blue eyes filled with tenderness.

"Haha.. Alright."

After saying that, Uriel looked at Alan Rebes again and said, "My woman just wants to go home, so I don't want this throne. You take care of this yourself."

After that, Uriel and Lina immediately walked away from it.

Although the two had just left, but people still stood still in the same place and looked at each other.

The people who thought there would be bloodshed were astonished.

Alan, "....."

Since Uriel had taken the initiative to retreat, this was good news for the Temple as well as Alan Rebes.

"Uriel's strength is too strong and his mind is too straight. Most importantly, Uriel had always been very wary of the members of the Shrines. If Uriel is allowed to inherit the throne, it will do us a great disservice."

But now Uriel had laid down her claim, and now only Azka Noah remained to inherit the throne.
