?Chapter 183: Chapter 182: Return of the Rat King Chapter 183: Chapter 182: Return of the Rat King “Today, a scholar by the name of Russell has invented reading glasses, the ingenuity of which is to be admired, bringing benefit to all elders suffering from presbyopia. Evaluated and approved by the Grand Scholar Roundtable, he is recognized as a Grand Scholar and his expertise has been presented to the Grand Duke for review.”
Captain Lucas, standing on a high platform made of a wooden table, read aloud the decree of his title grant, “The Grand Duke’s reply goes as follows…”
He paused for a moment.
Glancing at the surrounding peasants, who appeared utterly confused, Lucas knew they probably had not understood a word he said.
Firstly, his accent was off, and secondly, the language of official documents was evidently different from spoken language, with many words the peasants had never even heard before.
But this did not inhibit him from continuing to read, “By the grace of the Great Dragon, the Grand Duke of Shadowflame Duchy, steward of Shadowflame Volcano, and the sole master of the warm lands of the Snowfield, Kunstan Shadowflame, hereby officially grants Russell Fluorescent Fungus the title of Grand Scholar.”
“The path of erudition is mysterious and infinite. Today, Russell is suited to explore it. You are exhorted to do so!”
After reading the final sentence of the title grant decree, Lucas handed the document over to Russell.
There was no need for a kneeling ceremony, as Shadowflame Duchy did not observe the custom of treating reading the decree as an audience with a ruler. Receiving the title grant decree, Russell simply bowed in acknowledgment.
He then generously expressed a few words, “I thank the Grand Duke for his trust and the Grand Scholar Roundtable for their recognition. The path of scholarship is vast and boundless; as Russell Fluorescent Fungus, I will undoubtedly live up to the Grand Duke’s expectations and the Roundtable’s entrustment, continuing to delve into scholarly pursuits!”
Following this, he passed the decree on to Charles.
Charles immediately grasped the situation, loudly proclaiming to the peasants, “Under the watchful eye of the Great Dragon, and with the blessing of the shining light, the Grand Duke has sent his decree, bestowing upon Lord Russell the title of Grand Scholar!”
“Grand Scholar!” The peasants looked at one another, still not comprehending but sensing the weight of the title.
