Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 871: Today is a Good Day

Royal Palace, Royal Capital.

The aged King Roosevelt and the strong Storm Duke sat in the study.

"The lifespan of a Fate Weaver, can it never be surpassed?" Storm Duke asked, "The Fate Weaver lineage has lasted for a thousand years…"

"More than a thousand years," King Roosevelt shook his head, "The Fate Weaver has never appeared in history, but has also never left."

"In the first era of human civilization, before the nuclear winter, our ancestors originally settled in Europe, in the area now covered by the Forbidden Zone. Later, he foresaw World War II. At that time, the Fate Weaver had not yet risen, and there was also a lineage there that specialized in hunting Fate Weavers, so our ancestors could not change anything, they could only bring all their clansmen to North America to avoid the war. In the prophecy he saw, the land beneath our feet did not suffer much hardship, but instead gained enormous benefits from the war."

"After arriving in North America, our ancestors served politicians, but because their level was too low, their ability to foresee the future was not strong. They could only foresee very large events, and could not yet see the fate of each person like they can now. At that time, our family was not powerful, everyone in North America only knew the political Roosevelt family, not our Fate Weaver Roosevelt family."

"Until 1981, our ancestor foresaw the assassination of the national president, he secretly infiltrated the crowd and pushed aside the president, who was named Reagan, when the assassin fired, saving Reagan's life. Our family, from then on, began to rise."

"Later, our ancestors saw the disintegration of a powerful Eastern country, and thus made a fortune. They saw the Southeast Asian economic crisis and made another fortune. It was only at this time that our family had a place in North America."

"But the good times didn't last long. The clan leader at that time saw the nuclear winter, he knew that the human era would be on the verge of destruction with this war. So, he began to use all his wealth to build underground defenses in a place that was not directly hit by nuclear bombs. He invested all his vast wealth underground, stockpiling food, weapons, scientific data and some production equipment, and species. The ancestors were thus on the verge of bankruptcy."

"Politicians laughed at him, Wall Street laughed at him, everyone said he was cowardly, but he didn't care. After more than forty years, just when he himself thought the prophecy had failed, the nuclear winter came. At the moment the war started, we took the selected humans and hid underground, going through a long period of underground life."

"At that time, our ancestors were no longer willing to continue serving politicians. Since the family has the ability to avoid misfortune, why can't we control this place? Therefore, during the time underground, the Roosevelt Kingdom was established. The clansmen signed a secret declaration, formulated a national program, and even planned how to develop after returning to the surface. There is a reason why we have developed faster than the East Continent from the beginning."

Storm Duke listened silently to all this. He was very interested in the history of the Fate Weaver family's rise, as if he was watching a young man who had accidentally obtained a great lineage gradually becoming stronger.

He wondered, "But it has been more than a thousand years, but the lifespan of the Fate Weaver cannot be changed?"

King Roosevelt slowly said, "The life of every Fate Weaver is full of legends. A long time ago, our ancestors realized that when we can see the fate of others, we can control the fate of others. But at the same time, when learning to control the fate of others, we must also learn to accept our own fate."

Storm Duke bowed his head in thought.

"So, are you still willing to accept the fate of the Fate Weaver?" King Roosevelt asked solemnly.

"I am willing," Storm Duke nodded. If he did not become a Fate Weaver, he would have no chance of becoming king. Only by becoming king could his lineage forever control this country.

King Roosevelt smiled, "I can see determination, and ambition." Storm Duke's heart trembled slightly.

King Roosevelt said, "But only an ambitious person can support a long-lasting empire. Do you remember the future I saw, the one related to Vera?"

Vera, the Fifth Princess.

In fact, the fact that Storm Duke was the king's illegitimate son was not absolutely hidden. He had seen Vera's fate, but some people in the outside world knew that this fragment of fate had only been told to Storm Duke.

Why tell Storm Duke? Previously, everyone thought it was because King Roosevelt trusted Storm Duke, but now it seems that Storm Duke is the heir who will inherit the throne.

Therefore, King Roosevelt would share this secret.

At this time, Storm Duke said, "You said you saw her sitting in your seat, blood flowing in the palace…" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

King Roosevelt nodded, "She is also an ambitious person. At certain moments, I feel that she is more suitable for this position than you, because she is as resolute and wise as you are, but she grew up in a peaceful environment, and has less resentment than you. But it's meaningless to talk about this now, you have passed the test, so you are the most suitable."

"Why did you suddenly mention this?" Storm Duke didn't understand.

King Roosevelt looked up… this son was too tall, so that even when the other party was sitting, he had to look up, "You are the future of the kingdom, the future of the Roosevelt family. The bloodline born with giants, the Cultivation speed far exceeds that of ordinary people. With the help of the phoenix flower, you became a Demi-God at 24 years old, something unimaginable in the entire family's history. Also, if Vera were to inherit the throne, the kingdom would only maintain the status quo. Although we are not afraid of giants, we absolutely cannot enter the Forbidden Forest to wipe them out. Vera cannot change this situation, but you can."

Storm Duke lowered his head, "What do you need me to do."

"I need you to remember that in the Fate Weaver family, the interests of the family are above all else. That's how the ancestors led the family to rise step by step, and we must also shoulder the same fate," King Roosevelt said, "The Fate Weaver should sacrifice everything for the right choice. I have already told you Vera's real name and birthday. Three days later, when she leaves Royal Capital, kill her with black magic, don't give her a chance to compete with you."

The foreseen future is not certain, because in the future they foresaw, there is no factor of "Fate Weaver foreseeing the future'.

And this King Roosevelt, in order to stabilize the succession, was even willing to kill his own daughter.

In fact, many kings have done this. They are accustomed to killing hidden dangers in the cradle.

For the king, the Fate Weaver's lineage is even more stable, the Fate Weaver possesses the Arbiters lineage, and possesses giant bloodline, there should be no one in this world who can contend with them.

At this time, King Roosevelt continued, "I have one more thing to tell you, and last night, I saw a very bad prophecy. I don't know what happened, the giants in that fragment of fate were even stronger than before, flying and escaping, and could even leap from the ground onto the Airships in the sky."

Like grasshoppers.

King Roosevelt, "I saw giants begin to control thunder, and even saw them catch the shells of main battle tanks with their bare hands… For a moment, I couldn't even tell whether it was a fragment of fate, or a dream."

Storm Duke was stunned, this should be a dream, right? Dreams can be so magical.

"Wait a minute, father," Storm Duke frowned, "Could it be that Joker has taught the Cultivation lineage to the giants?"

King Roosevelt frowned, "That's most likely the case."

In fact, he knew a long time ago that if the giants mastered the Cultivation lineage, it would be a disaster for humanity.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have tried so hard to hunt down the giants… but they still failed.

King Roosevelt shook his head, "This Joker is too short-sighted, he doesn't know the consequences of teaching the Cultivation lineage to the giants. Giants should be the common enemy of mankind, but they opened Pandora's Box in order to temporarily oppose us."

Actually, the king was right. Without the incident of accepting Black Leaf Plain to become the king of the giants, Qing Chen would also be wary of the giants.

But now, the situation is clearly different…

After careful consideration, the king said, "Son, I don't have much time left, and you need time to continue the giant bloodline and create new humans. Take the empire's army to the East Continent to conquer, enslave those Asians, and give birth to children with female giants there. By the time you return to this land, when the Forbidden Forest can no longer be a barrier for giants, giants will no longer be your opponents."

This king actually planned to take the East Continent first, and then return here.

Storm Duke said softly, "But I have just begun to Cultivate the Fate Weaver lineage, and you are also about to leave, will the other three dukes not obey?"

King Roosevelt smiled and stood up, opening the secret passage in the study, "Come with me, it's time for you to know these secrets."

He saw a narrow passage leading underground. Storm Duke followed his father down. Because of his tall stature, he had to bend over to walk.

He saw someone carving with a knife on the wall: "When will winter pass?" "When will the light return?" "We pray for the protection of God in the darkness."

Storm Duke narrowed his eyes. He never imagined…this Royal Capital…

This underground building looks simple, but it is hidden deep underground.

He kept walking down the steps, several times he heard the sound of underground rivers flowing beneath or above his feet.

The walls on both sides of the steps were inlaid with long-lasting tritium lights, and the faint light illuminated the place.

After an unknown amount of time, Storm Duke finally saw the front open up, where the lights were on, and he saw boxes of completely sealed materials on the ground.

The king chuckled self-deprecatingly, "The boxes are all completely sealed vacuum packages, and the packages are all food. The ancestor experienced the nuclear winter, so he instructed his descendants to always leave enough supplies here for more than thirty years, and not to violate this rule. Those who have been hungry will always crave food more."

Storm Duke nodded in agreement.

This underground facility is very large, like a huge square, with more than a dozen houses built on the square…

Just like an underground military base.

Moreover, there are many passages here, leading to unknown places.

The empty underground facility was cold and windy. Sometimes, Storm Duke would hear strange sounds, as if far away, and as if close at hand.

Very strange.

King Roosevelt glanced at him, "I will tell you where each passage goes later, but I didn't bring you here for this purpose."

Walking inside with the king, Storm Duke saw a villa-style building with red symbols painted on the outer wall.

He was startled, and always felt that some kind of dangerous creature was imprisoned inside.

However, this house seemed to have magic, even though he resisted in his heart, he felt that something inside was calling to him.

The king pushed open the door, and Storm Duke saw seven pure gold coffins in the spacious living room of the villa.

The aged king asked, "Do you know the value of gold?" Storm Duke nodded, "It's currency."

"No," the aged king shook his head and smiled, "A long time ago, people knew that only gold can conceal fate. Come in, this is a gift from the family, and it is your foundation for the Eastern expedition."
