Chapter 556: Hanks Is Dead!
Translator: Lonelytree
They were mumbling something like “Lord Hanks is eternal” , something that came from the city lord.
The Home of Kindness, [Mage Association].
At the same time, it was also the number one military organization in the Home of Kindness.
Today, nearly ten thousand high-level mages had gathered here.
There was also a [Divine Spirit] who specialized in water.
These mages were the rarer [Water Mages] in the Home of Kindness.
To be able to comprehend [Water Element] in a Home of Kindness, one had to praise his talent.
There was only one task for him today.
That was to use his own strength to maintain the rainy weather in the good house.
The reason why he did such a thankless thing.
It was all because of An Kai’s words.
“Grand Burial.”
According to An Kai, burying a dead person was naturally more suitable for rainy weather.
With the [Divine Spirit] as the leader, the sound of chanting could be heard from time to time.
Maintaining the rainy weather of the Home of Kindness.
Home of Kindness, the place where the inner and outer cities meet.
There was a palace there that occupied an area of 1,000 mu.
It was originally the territory of the Home of Kindness Blacksmith Association, but it was taken out today.
It would be the place for the Hanks ‘grand burial.
The palace was filled with living beings.
There were witches serving as maids to receive the creatures who came to mourn.
There were also living beings provided by the various associations of the Home of Kindness to maintain order at the scene.
Even the Foreigner Happiness Building provided personnel to maintain order at the scene.
The Hanks couple’s bodies were placed in the middle of the first floor of the palace.
There was a double coffin made of pure gold.
At this moment, the Hanks couple had their eyes closed and were wearing red robes.
It was like a wedding.
Inside the golden coffin, there was a [Freezing Spell] that An kai had personally thrown in.
It could prevent the corpses of the Hanks couple from rotting due to death.
On both sides of the coffin, Wayne, the chief steward of the Home of Kindness, stayed on one side as the person in charge.
He thanked the living beings who came and went to offer their condolences on behalf of the Hanks couple.
What was strange was that Wayne did not have much sadness on his face after his old friend died.
Instead, he had a smile on his face and looked happy.
Not only did the creatures who came and went to mourn not understand this scene, but the three gods who had transformed into Wayne’s personal bodyguards, the God of Wrath, the God of Wailing, and the God of Howling, also did not understand.
Logically speaking, shouldn’t the death of an old friend be sad?
Could it be that the Home of Kindness were already so cold?
It must be known that even the group of gods known for their indifference would show some sadness when their old friends were killed.
This was because the predecessors of gods were all Immortals. To Immortals, there was only one way to die.
That was to be killed.
Wayne didn’t care if the other living beings didn’t understand.
He was happy because of what his teacher had told him.
The Hanks couple had lived for so long. They should not be sad.
Wayne didn’t know what a funeral was. He only knew that his teacher had told him to smile and not cry.
Therefore, even though Wayne was extremely sad and his old friend closed his eyes and lost his breath in front of him, he still followed his teacher’s advice and chose to laugh instead of crying.
“Teacher…He can’t be wrong.”
At the entrance of the palace.
The twenty-eighth prince of the Orcs, Gulaire, was holding a fine wine brewed by the elves.
He leaned against the wall.
He gulped down the wine.
‘ Hanks, you fool. I gave you immortality, but you didn’t want it. Why did you choose to die for love?!
“Do you know how many living beings dream of immortality?
“So what if you become an undead? There are so many undead in the Home of Kindness, but they’re still alive and well!” Gulp!
Gulaire gulped down another mouthful of wine.
He stood up shakily and looked at the crowded scene in the palace. Through the intertwined figures, he looked at the Hanks couple in the golden coffin.
A bitter smile subconsciously appeared on his face…
“You’re so great, you’re so unrestrained!
“You can even look down on immortality..
He looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar creatures in front of him.
The twenty-eighth prince of the Orc, Gulaire, paused. His eyes were empty as if he was reminiscing about the past.
“This world…lt is indeed a new world…
“Hanks is a remnant of the Old World, and I…lsn’t that the case…
Hanks ‘carefree attitude touched Gulaure’s heart.
He had already forgotten when the last time he met An Kai was.
A year? Ten years? A hundred years?
He couldn’t remember.
Gulaire only knew that An Kai had unknowingly stopped being cautious, and he didn’t need Gulaire to act as his substitute anymore.
It was just like Hanks had described.
In this new world, Gulaire felt like he was out of place.
Clearly, those living beings from the Home of Kindness were stronger than the others.
Gulaire knew that it was because of An Kai.
If it weren’t for An Kai, Gulaire wouldn’t even be qualified to be a slave.
Hanks was Gulaire’s old friend.
Or rather, those living beings were Gulaire’s old friends.
They were in a new world that was changing every day.
He was out of place and could not find the meaning of his existence.
Mason, Hanks, Milton, Aken, Nurnisius, Goudan…
They were all good friends of the 28th Prince Gulaire.
They were also frequent visitors to the Foreigner Happiness Restaurant.
At the same time, they also had a special characteristic.
That was, they could not find their places in the new world.
Staying in the Happiness Building was mostly to escape.
What was the meaning of their existence?
What was the meaning of immortality?
In comparison, Nurnisius was considered better off.
The Magical Beast team under his command had finally found something to do.
But had Nurnisius really adapted to the new world?
NO!
Not really.
Everything Nurnisius had was given to him by An Kai.
Not just Hanks.
Confusion filled every living being who came from the Old World.
The upper limit of one’s strength could be seen at a glance.
So what if they had longevity?
To enjoy An Kai’s protection for the rest of their lives?
“Why are you sighing?”
Pa!
The 28th Prince felt like his head had been slapped.
Normally…
He would not get angry.
After all, those who dared to slap him in the Home of Kindness were all people he could not be angry with.
This was…
As soon as he turned around, the 28th Prince Gulaire’s expression changed even faster.
Immediately, his sorrowful and melancholic appearance turned into a flattering smile…
“Sir, thank you for your smack!
” Your Excellency is right. I was just letting my imagination run wild and producing emotions that I shouldn’t have, affecting Your Excellency’s mood!
“I deserve to die!”
An Kai waved his hand. It had been many years since they last met.
Gulaire was still the same.
“You dog, it’s been so many years, but you haven’t changed at all.
“That’s right. Not many of you guys have changed.
“Hanks, that old thing, dared to call me kid just because he was about to die.” Gulaire didn’t agree with An Kai’s words.
Instead, he maintained a flattering smile and listened to An Kai quietly.
“If you ask me, you dogs, if you really have enough of living, just die like Hanks.”
An Kai casually watched the funeral ceremony begin in the palace, and then he gave a suggestion to the twenty-eighth prince Gulaire.
“Sir must be joking…” Gulaire hurriedly replied. If he really died…
To be honest, Gulaire was not ready yet.
“Joking? No, I’m serious.” An Kai didn’t even turn his head. He smacked his lips and lamented the cumbersome funeral ceremony of the Hanks couple while responding to Gulaire seriously.
Hearing this, Gulaire’s expression froze.
He didn’t understand what An Kai meant…
“Think about it carefully.”
Patting Gulaire’s shoulder, An Kai took a step forward.
He entered the palace.
The Hanks ‘funeral had just begun.
As the City Lord of the Home of Kindness, An Kai needed to show his face.
After all, this was different from Hanks faking his death.
This time, Hanks was really dead!
Like Wayne, An Kai smiled and said a few words.
It also included making everyone laugh.
Many living beings present did not know what to do.
They could only obey An Kai’s command and reveal a smile that was uglier than crying.
They swore that this was the most forced smile they had ever had.
Finally.
An Kai ended with a sentence, “Everyone, eat and drink well.”
The Hanks’ funeral ceremony officially began…
The ceremony lasted for three days.
Three days.
The news of Hanks ‘death was spread to every corner of the Divine Realm by the creatures of the Home of Kindness.
This further deepened An Kai’s cold personality…
Three days later.
The funeral ceremony ended.
An Kai walked out of the Mage Tower.
He raised his head and looked at the sunny sky…
“Yes… The weather is good, suitable for summoning.”
With a thought.
An Kai summoned the Gate of Summoning!
Following his will, two hazy True Spirits appeared…
“Revive!”
“Hanks!”
