"My dear subjects, I also have an announcement to make.
It is regarding the royal contest we arranged for all the royal scions."
It seemed that Emil the 8th had another reason for appearing publicly. In his declaration, the king's voice echoed everywhere.
"We have a clear winner in the royal contest. I am pleased to introduce the rightful heir to my throne and your love - Rodrick Renar.
From this moment onwards, he shall be known as the crown prince of Edinburgh. Rodrick will take over my throne when he becomes a Grandmaster."
Another wave of excitement hit the crowd as Edinburgh's newly appointed crown prince was decided. Rodrick appeared beside the current king next. He kneeled in front of his father and received crowd blessings.
