Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start-Chapter 317 - : 317, Coronation Ceremony, Goldfinch Empress! _1

Chapter 317: 317, Coronation Ceremony, Goldfinch Empress! _1

The enormous amount of spoils of war that Su Yu and Tina brought back breathed new life into the war-torn Golden Chrysanthemum Empire.

Princess Alyssa, with the renewed funding, drew up a series of high-standard post-war rebuilding and economic recovery plans, dispensing a large amount of reconstruction funds in severely war-torn areas like Forest City, Orleans City, and Maple City.

With abundant financial support, the entire nation started to get back on its feet.

In the following month of the game time, the final 5 quests in the main storyline of the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire were initiated.

These 5 quests were largely centered around the princess’s coronation ceremony.

In these 5 quests, Su Yu took on the role of the Princess’s diplomatic ambassador, responsible for receiving foreign officials and envoys.

All the countries in the Western Continent sent envoys to Golden Chrysanthemum City to participate in the princess’s coronation.

Especially noteworthy is the envoy from the Xi’er Federal, who brought gifts worth billions of spiritual energy coins!

The lavish gift signified that the Xi’er Federal had abandoned its fence-sitting policy and was now entrusting its wholehearted support to the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire.

In addition to these small Western countries, the elf kingdom and dwarf kingdom also dispatched special envoys with precious gifts of local specialties.

The special envoy from the Elf Kingdom was Princess Emily, whom Su Yu knew.

Princess Emily’s Plant Transformation Disease had nearly completely recovered. Her visit to the human world was not only to attend the Princess’s coronation but also to thank Su Yu and subtly ask if he would like to marry her.

Su Yu gladly accepted Emily’s thanks, but as for her proposal… after some contemplation, he politely declined.

The Dwarf Kingdom dispatched a special envoy named [Bartek Ironbeard], a sanctuary dwarf with a red beard. He was said to be Queen Alise’s father’s fencing instructor, and the two had often sparred together.

Also worth noting is that the two human empires, the Wind Chime and Lai Yin, did not send envoys.

Upon learning of the princess’s impending coronation, they sent sternly worded warnings to the princess using magical communication.

The content of the warnings was not of importance, mostly trumped-up accusations.

However, the two empires declared a state of war emergency and officially declared war on the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire.

Thankfully, the Princess’s coronation was not impacted by these two empires.

On July 31st of the Blue Star Calendar, the last day of the first expansion, the princess officially held her coronation ceremony in the central square of Golden Chrysanthemum City.

Traditionally, the coronation ceremony would be held at a location called the Sanctuary, north of the Golden Chrysanthemum palace, to receive the protection of their ancestor.

However, to demonstrate her affinity with the people, Alyssa chose not to hold the ceremony there, but instead at the central square, so that her subjects could witness her crowning.

After the ceremony, she would then go to the Sanctuary to pay tribute to her ancestral spirits.

By ten o’clock in the morning game time, the square was packed with citizens who had come to watch the ceremony.

The more desirable places closer to the inside were even taken by people who had arrived the night before to secure their spots.

Everyone was straining on tiptoes, looking towards the direction of the palace down the street.

Before long, the luxurious carriage in which the princess was seated, drawn by six magnificent horses and plated with a layer of mysterious silver, slowly approached the square.

Alyssa, dressed in a luxurious robe of intertwined gold and red, held a gold scepter—a symbol of royal power—in her right hand and smiled at the people on both sides of the road.

As the crowd caught sight of the princess, they exploded into deafening cheers, and many hoarsely shouted her name.

If the princess started a religion, these people would definitely be her fanatical followers.

Standing not far behind Alyssa on a carriage were Su Yu and Tina, wearing dozens of medals on their chests and waving to the crowd on both sides of the road.

The Princess’s ride gradually made its way into the square amidst the cheers of the crowd.

The coronation ceremony officially began upon reaching the square.

The coronation ceremony was divided into two parts; the first part was a sacrificial ceremony, a plea for ancestral blessing;

The second part was the formal coronation ceremony.

The first part of the ceremony.

Under Alyssa’s leadership, a 20-meter-tall totem pole was erected in the square. Alyssa knelt with one knee before the totem pole, praying to the illustrious spirits of the ancestors.

The totem pole emanated a multitude of colors, these radiations were the impressions of power left behind by successive Golden Chrysanthemum emperors at the peak of their power at forty.

The energy rich in these imprints continually overflowed from the totem pole, falling onto Alyssa and bestowing blessings on the future successor of the empire.

Due to the shared origin, these forces were quickly assimilated by Alyssa into her own power, and her strength began to ascend explosively.

Finally, after several minutes, Alyssa managed to break through the bottleneck on the podium, becoming a fifth-order mage, and acquired the ability to fly.

Alyssa expressed more words of gratitude in her prayer to the ancestors, thus concluding the first stage of the sacrificial ceremony.

Alyssa stood up, her hand resting on the totem pole, and under the witness of the ancestors, she was formally crowned as the Emperor.

The royal chief mage [Shalan] solemnly walked out from the side of the podium, her hands holding a pale gold crown studded with numerous gemstones.

By tradition, this crown would be placed on Alyssa’s head by Shalen, symbolizing the royal family’s respect for the supernatural energy of “magic”.

But Alyssa did not wish to follow convention.

She took the crown from Shalan’s hands and adorned it herself. This symbolized that the power was granted by herself to herself.

Then Alyssa raised her arms and declared to the people below the stage: “I, Alyssa Golden Chrysanthemum, am your unchallenged Empress!”

This break from tradition left many aristocratic ministers on the stage in surprise.

However, there were also those who cheered fanatically:

“Long live!”

“Long live!”

“Long live the Empress!”

The cheering rose incessantly, each wave eclipsed by the next.

From the moment Alyssa wore the crown, the title of “Princess Alyssa” became history, and in its place was “Empress Alyssa”.

She would lead the Golden Chrysanthemums towards a new future!

When the cheering died down a bit, Alyssa motioned with her hand to commence her first speech after her coronation:

“My subjects, in the past forty years, our nation has endure an unprecedented calamity. In this calamity, the northern Dukes Landilus and Anzu Seifer were unable to suppress their ambitions…(omitting 300 words)…Finally, we survived this crisis, with the help of prophet Nemesis and Marshal Tina Garcia, we reestablished the unity of the empire, and gained valuable resources to aid in the rebuilding of our homeland…(omitting 500 words)…”

“Now I can solemnly assure you all, under my leadership, we of the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire will surely have a brighter tomorrow!”

“Long live the Empress!”

“Long live!”

“Long live!”

The crowd erupted in intense cheers once more.

Many tossed their hats up high into the air, transforming the area below the stage into an ocean of hats.
