King Nuen gently stretched out his right hand and showed the black ring on his little finger: "Do you know what this is?"

Thales frowned.

Then he shook his head honestly.

"This is a 'triumph'." King Nun smiled mysteriously: "It is also one of the origins of our two families."

Thales couldn't help but be stunned.

Triumph?

He watched King Nun take off his ring, turn it to the inner ring, and show it to him.

Thales squinted his eyes and saw a pattern engraved on the inner ring pointed by King Nunn. It seemed to be a horse...

A horse with wings?

"This is the emblem of Pegasus." King Nun said calmly: "It is the emblem of the imperial family Carother since Emperor Comorra established the empire."

Thales was slightly startled.

Pegasus.

Imperial family?Carother?

"More than six hundred years ago, when Exeter and Star had just established their kingdoms," King Nunn said in a deep and distant tone, "because of King Tormund's bloody methods against the original nobles during his expansion,

The first conflict broke out between Exeter and the Star Kingdom."

Tormund's bloody methods... Thales remembered something.

"Nekaru and Tormund, the Dragonrider King and the Revival King, the Northlanders and the Imperials, leading the elite soldiers and generals fought in the End War, met at the edge of Cold Castle."

"In the end, the two late kings each took a step back and signed the first peace treaty in the history of our two countries. They agreed that the two countries would divide the north and the south, expand each other, and not interfere with each other."

King Nun let out a breath:

"That was Exeter's earliest contact with the stars."

Thales narrowed his eyes, remembering what he saw in the library yesterday afternoon.

What King Nun was talking about should be the peace treaty signed by Tormund and Nekaru.

If I remember correctly... "In the 11th year of the End Calendar, the agreement between Nekaru and Tormund, Exeter and Star to deal with border issues"?

Is that the name?

"What is not recorded in the history books is that the two former kings privately exchanged an ancestral treasure with each other as a token of the covenant." King Nun put the ring back on his hand.

"This ring is the token that King Tormund gave to King Nekaru," King Nun took a breath and said to Thales:

"It was passed from Nekaru's hands to his nephew's hands, to the Walton family, and has been secretly passed down in the hands of successive Grand Dukes of Walton."

"It has no name, but all the Grand Dukes called it 'Triumph'." The king's tone was a little ethereal, and his eyes looked away erratically.

Triumph.

Thales frowned slightly.

"It's a good name," he said cautiously, "it sounds very exciting."

"Exciting?" King Nuen laughed dumbly.

"As I said, it was originally an ancestral treasure of the Revival King Tormund. It originated from the first emperor of the Final Empire and was also one of your ancestors." King Nun stroked Triumphant and said with sharp eyes:

"Caesir Kalosser VI."

Thales turned his eyes.

Kessel?

An... emperor with the same name as his father?

King Nun raised his eyes: "This ring once belonged to the famous Emperor Kessel VI, and it was passed down to King Tormund. Tormund gave this ring to Nekaru to witness each other's love.

Covenant.”

"And the reputation of King Kessel VI is not very good. In his life, which was neither long nor short, but full of ups and downs, countless opponents fell to his conspiracy and calculations," King Nun took a sip.

Tone, serious tone:

"And his greatest achievement was to revive the prestige of the Caroser imperial family in the chaos after the collapse of the ancient empire, and to recapture the capital of triumph from the rebels and princes. The empire was eventually established and lasted for three hundred years.

"

Thales nodded.

The emperor who recaptured the triumphal capital and the founder of the ultimate empire.

I see.

That’s why it’s called “Triumph”.

"Do you know that emperor's nickname?" King Nun suddenly raised his head and looked at Thales with interest.

Thales was stunned for a moment, then continued to shake his head.

King Nun looked at Thales with an increasingly subtle expression.

This made the latter extremely uneasy.

"This is a small ring, but it has many uses." King Nun sighed and gently flicked the triumphal ring.

This time, Thales was truly stunned.

Has many uses?

Thales stared at the ring blankly, and a terrible thought came to his mind.

Sure enough, King Nun's next words made him feel cold: "The ring can hide three different kinds of medicine foam, two different gases, and even a poisonous needle."

Hidden.

Poison needle?

Listening to the old king's narration, Thales even forgot to breathe.

But King Nun's words continued:

"For example, when two people in a duel are at loggerheads..."

Thales was shocked.

"Gently turning the mechanism, 'Triumph' can release the pre-prepared Selweed poison gas at close range," King Nunn's eyes were extremely cold at the moment, and his tone sounded very scary:

"It is very expensive to extract, but it can unknowingly anesthetize the muscles and mind of the poisoned person. During intense exercise, this poison will disperse with the blood, and the poisoned person will feel a decrease in strength, numbness of muscles, and more and more

He is getting more and more irritable and restless."

Decreased strength.

Muscle numbness.

Irritated and restless.

The second prince was stunned.

Thales turned his head and looked at King Nun with disbelief.

King Nun also turned his head and looked back at him.

The next second, the old king finally confirmed Thales's terrible suspicion with a suspicious smile.

"how?"

"Do you really think that I am an old man who is almost seventy years old?" Nun Walton VII, the High King of Exeter and the most respected ruler of the Northlanders, looked at him with deep thoughts.

Looking at him:

"Can you easily defeat a strong man with physical reflexes, strength and speed at his peak, and who has been trained in fighting in the North all year round?"

Thales looked at King Nun in shock.

Nunn smiled meaningfully.

Thales's mind was in a state of confusion.

He replayed every scene in the duel in his mind, and then caught the fragment that best fit the description in front of him:

Perfit gasped loudly.

He missed the mark almost every time.

And the young archduke's final hysteria.

Isn't it?

Thales didn't know what expression to use at this moment, nor what his own expression was.

He just stared at King Nun closely.

"Did I forget to tell you?"

"The nickname of King Kessel VI, the founder of the final empire," King Nun smiled, with a mysterious expression on his face, and softly uttered three words:
