Bab 695: 693 Conferred _1

"I, Judy, the eighteenth emperor of the Lord of Glory Empire, by the name of the Lord of Glory and the sacred ancestors, hereby confer the title of duke upon Colin St. Chapman and grant him the position of the Empire's Guardian!

I hope you will protect this honor with loyalty, courage, and wisdom!"

Inside the Phoenix Palace, Judy's clear yet slightly immature voice echoed.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will protect the honor you bestowed upon me with my life!"

Judy smiled slightly, moved the sword away from Colin's shoulder, and took the duke's seal from the platter held by her attendant to bestow it upon Colin.

The nobles who were present didn't express much surprise at this scene.

After all, considering Colin's current reputation and strength, his ennoblement as a duke is far from abrupt.

And there have long been rumors and speculation about Colin's "true identity".
