Kapitel 1008: Chapter 1008. Funeral Ceremony of the Past King

Jack nodded his acceptance. Thaergood rose and Duke Alfredo came next.

The swearing of fealties went on for a long while as there were many people in the hall. The outworlders who were invited also did the same. They had been advised about this when they came to the palace. If they were unwilling, they were turned away.

Swearing fealties were not just symbolism to the outworlders. If they did, they were automatically accepted into the Themisphere Kingdom faction if they weren't already. If they were already a kingdom faction member, they would receive merit points that were enough to level them up to Baron at least.

The outworlders that John had invited were mostly those with guild headquarters as well as leaders of other influential guilds or groups. By tying them to the kingdom faction, it would help to strengthen the kingdom more.
