The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 261: The tyrant is coming

——Grand Duke Ivan turned into a dragon.

The news quickly spread throughout the entire Winter Province.

It is impossible to hide.

Almost everyone saw it. A giant dragon with bright yellow pupils and scales as white as snow flew out of the Grand Duke's Mansion, covered in frost aura, and hovered reluctantly over the Frost Whispering Province.

When it flew out, the frost condensed around it, forming a white trail in the deep sky. Under the night sky, the frost-like scales on his body seemed to sparkle.

Following the traces of the dragon's flight, gorgeous falling snow fell in the great barrier. Catch those crystallized plants and you'll be rewarded with pure white blooms next year.

If you eat these flowers, you can calm down your feelings of sadness, anxiety, and fear again...

——This is the last gift given to people by Ivan Winter.

People gathered on the street or opened the windows at home and watched their Dagong turn into a giant dragon, hovering in the low sky or squatting on a high platform.

The bright yellow dragon pupils were filled with strong emotions.

Nostalgia, joy, attachment... Even across races and hundreds of meters apart, you can clearly see the overflowing emotions in its heart.

I gained a healthy body and regained my complete emotions - at the end of my mission as the Duke of Winter, the curse called the Heart of Winter had also been unlocked.

Even if they didn’t have any knowledge before, the Winter people who saw this scene quickly understood it.

Their Grand Duke, Ivan Lendong, will leave them today.

But only a few people know that this is not a painful farewell.

Because...the dragon named Ivan Frostwhisper will also be born today.

"Goodbye, Ivan."

Annan stood in front of the wide open floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the pure white dragon flying freely in the air and gradually mastering its new body.

It is not so much a floor-to-ceiling window as it is an entire wall that opens outward. This is the top floor of the Grand Duke's Palace, where the "dragon" was born.

In this snowfall, Annan's clothes were very thin.

He was wearing a pure white slim-fitting dress and had a tall and straight figure. Behind Annan, he was wearing a white hollow gauze shawl - it was the dress worn by the Grand Duke when he ascended the throne.

Annan's right eye has an ice blue pupil as clear and transparent as a Ragdoll cat, while his emerald left eye shines with divine brilliance. He stared deeply at Ivan who turned into a white dragon.

Finally, the dragon flew throughout Frostwhisper.

It once again flew back to the Grand Duke's Palace in people's eyes.

On the top floor of the Grand Duke's Palace, Annan was holding a scepter that was taller than him. The three-color scepter hugged a crystal ball tightly, and at the bottom was an inverted silver cross.

The pure white dragon flew towards Annan with its body covered with moonlight.

...The moon is really coming to me.

Annan sighed silently and silently raised the three-color scepter high.

And Ivan stretched out his dragon claws - giant claws that could hold Annan's head in his hands.

Now it simply places one of its fingers on the scepter.

Obviously it’s just a crystal ball.

But it was like a sharp steel needle piercing the dragon's claw - the dark red blood slowly dripped on the scepter, soaking the entire crystal ball, causing it to glow with a hazy dark red light.

This is the succession ceremony of Duke Winter.

It means that the three-color scepter is no longer under the control of Ivan Winter, and it also means the complete transfer of power.

"Ang——"

Ivan let out a dragon roar again and circled into the sky.

As the small barrier of Frost Whisper Province opened, the moment the quiet blizzard fell, the pure white dragon was already roaring and flying away.

After the dragon's figure completely disappeared.

Standing in the ceremonial array of loudspeakers, Annan’s cold and melodious announcement resounded throughout the city:

[I am Annan Lingdong. Son of Ivan, Lord of Winter——]

He slightly raised the scepter in his hand. The crystal ball flashing with dark red light quickly washed away the blood, and once again shined with bright ice blue light.

Under that light, the small barrier that opened closed again.

Due to the opening of the barrier, the incoming wind and snow were isolated again.

The new Duke of Winter was born here.

In the province of St. Alexius? The residence of the Melvin family.

In a closed village filled with the scent of incense and completely isolated from the outside world, a man with no hair and golden eyes stood on a high stone clock tower.

The back of his head is imprinted with many runes. It looks like a complex disk. Now a light golden halo is flowing between the runes, and a triple halo blooms on the back of the head.

If you look from the front, you can see the sacred halo emerging behind the man's head, slowly rotating clockwise, counterclockwise, and clockwise.

Behind him, a girl with black hair reaching the floor knelt down and narrated to him in a low voice:

"...Since that time, we have made mistakes in the ritual positioning of the 'Skeleton Lord'. The interference of divine power, initially identified as the 'Silent God', has caused the transformation of the 'Skeleton Lord'. Elders Already re-preparing for the ceremony? Re-calibration? The preliminary calibration can be completed within three days..."

The man made no response.

His lips were tightly closed, and his eyes were shining brightly. His whole body shone brightly in the night and under the stars, like the sun after sunset.

He quietly stared in the direction of the northern Frostwhisper Province without saying a word.

Northland, Wrangel Province.

Wearing a frost-colored military uniform, he is a middle-aged nobleman with a tall and straight body and a vertical scar across his left eye. He looked at the southern night sky with a gloomy expression.

He is Ostov Dolgoruky, a former lieutenant of the Frost Beast Force. He is also the current head of the Dolgoruki family.

"Ivan has turned into a dragon? Annan Winter is still not dead."

Behind him, a white-haired old man with a kind face and single-rimmed glasses said calmly: "I'm sorry? Viscount Dolgoruki.

"But I think you will face the revenge of our new Grand Duke next."

"...I understand? Your Excellency, Count."

Ostov said slowly: "I have already made preparations? I will not harm you."

"Ah? You misunderstood. I didn't mean that."

The old man was behind him, his hands firmly clasped behind his back, and he spoke calmly like an old butler.

A tall, thin man with dark skin and eyes shining with green light suddenly emerged from the shadows at his feet. ~IndoMTL.com~ There is a dark shadow thread between his hands.

Suddenly, the thin thread was tightly wrapped around Viscount Ostov's neck.

Viscount Ostov struggled fiercely and groaned, but could not utter a word.

The old man's squinted eyes opened.

Revealing dark golden vertical pupils.

He said leisurely: "I mean... you may be able to use it for other purposes."

Above the "Fourth Exhaustion" collection hall, a ferocious beast with dark golden pupils crouched quietly.

That is the "Beauty of Imbalance" Vasika Rasputin.

If Annan could see what it looked like at this moment, he would know that she was not some kind of "catwoman".

Because it's a lynx.

The markings on its body form a completely asymmetrical yet strangely beautiful pattern that will make people feel dizzy at a glance.

But now it is just looking quietly at the pure white dragon in the distance.

The white falling snow fell on it, but it did not melt at all, but covered it with a thin layer. On the contrary, the ceiling beneath it melted the falling snow due to the temperature in the "Fourth Drainage" collection hall.

"...[The Tyrant] is coming."

In the lynx's mouth, a very magnetic low voice came out - Wasika's gender today is male.

"——The same goes for Blizzard."
