Chapter 548 - The Ultimate Level Simp
Chapter 548 - The Ultimate Level Simp
In the Subila Palace’s Emperor’s chambers, Aurora was summoned by her own mother.
“I heard that you have accepted the invitation of the Queen of the Dragon Kingdom, Her Majesty Alexia,” Andrea asked in a gentle tone.
Andrea had dismissed all her subordinates, leaving only herself and her daughter in the chambers.
Twenty years had passed, yet time had left no traces on Andrea’s body. With the divinity that she possessed, Andrea was already a divine creature. Although she was not immortal like the gods, her life expectancy was already beyond that of mortals and even elves. These twenty years of time only served to stabilize her condition and allowed her to mature psychologically. When she and Aurora were together, the pair looked more like sisters than parent and child.
Moreover, Aurora’s figure was more mature and sexier compared to her mother’s petite appearance. If no one paid attention to their temperament and only their looks, then others might even think of Aurora as the elder sister.
“Yes, Queen Mother! Archbishop Bazel has received the church headquarters instructions.”
In front of her own mother, Aurora did not dare hide anything and lowered her head.
“I see. It’s time for you to make a trip to the Dragon Kingdom too, Aurora…”
Andrea looked at her daughter and said with a gentle expression. As the crystallization of her relationship with Louie, Andrea had always treated Aurora as her most precious treasure. She wished to become a true god, but she could not just give up on the Subila Kingdom especially when she needed faith to become a god. As a result, her identity as the queen of the Subila Kingdom was a necessary element.
And Aurora was the best candidate to inherit everything from her. Andrea had long planned for her future. Whether she succeeded in becoming a true god or failed on the road, the Subila Kingdom needed to have a successor. This was her obligation as one of the royal bloodlines.
Aurora’s identity and her blood relationship with the Queen of the Dragon Kingdom were the most essential weights that could allow the Subila Kingdom to survive the chaotic situation of the West.
With the trade assistance from the Dragon Kingdom, the Subila Kingdom was now in a high position in the entire west of the continent, becoming one of the strongest among many countries.
“As the Queen of Subila, I should be the one to personally go to the Dragon Kingdom to pay a visit to your sister, Her Majesty Alexia, but as you know, that queen does not like me. For the sake of the relationship between the two countries, I should not appear before her.”
Andrea knew very well about Alexia’s dislike of her, but she was not at all annoyed by it. Everyone in the world knew that Dragon God Louie Galakrond’s mate was one of the oldest goddesses, the main god of the elven divine system, Silver Moon Goddess Selune. Andrea’s status was tantamount to that of a lover.
Let alone gods, even nobles of San Soliel tended to have promiscuous relationships. Alexia, as the child of the Dragon God and Silver Moon Goddess, might turn a blind eye to Andrea’s existence, but she would definitely not like her.
“I understand, Queen Mother! I know that Her Majesty Alexia does not want to see you.”
Aurora was the princess of the Subila Kingdom. Her mother with a good face and a dark heart had taught her many things and among them was the ability to see through all these political intricacies.
“Good. For you to be willing to go see your sister this time shows that you are finally growing up, Aurora… Perhaps I have been overprotective of you all this time even if you have reached the legendary rank, but in my opinion, you are still an unqualified princess. For the church, you are also an unqualified holy maiden.”
Andrea sighed, disappointed that Aurora had not grown to her satisfaction.
However, she did not blame Aurora. This was definitely due to Aurora’s environment. Aurora did not have other siblings, so she did not need to face the pressure of competition for the throne. Moreover, she was born with a golden spoon and was favored by many.
Andrea couldn’t compare her daughter with herself. It must be known that when Andrea was twenty, she had to face off against her depressing and lonely fate of being married away to another nobleman as a political bargaining chip. As a result of that, Andrea had been more mature and more ruthless when it came to finding a way to survive her desperate situation.
Andrea did not have any plans of having Aurora marry as a political tool. For Andrea, Aurora was her treasure and no one could get their hands on her easily. Moreover, without her father’s consent, Andrea would never dare let Aurora enter into any political marriage contract.
“I’ve let you down, mother.”
Aurora bowed her head in shame. She also knew her immaturity. From her capricious thoughts and actions, it was clear that Aurora was still in her rebellious phase.
“I’m not disappointed, Aurora, but you definitely can’t go on like this. You have to learn to grow up. I hope that this trip to the Dragon Kingdom will allow you to mature and see what a truly powerful country is like. I hope that you can learn a lot of things from this contact with your sister.”
Andrea spoke with a serious tone, “Her Majesty Alexia is the one who has a high chance of becoming a god. As long as your Father God personally grants her a godhood, Alexia would be able to rise up to the throne, but your Father God will not do so. The Silver Moon Goddess would also not allow Alexia to become a god, because she serves as the bridge between the Dragon Kingdom and the Silver Moon Kingdom. For a long-lived race like the elves, decades of living together are not enough to keep the two nations at odds.”
“...Therefore Alexia is an important existence. It’s only through her presence on the main continent that the Dragon Kingdom and the Silver Moon Kingdom can have a connection. At the very least, she can not ascend for a thousand years. Once I pass the throne of the Subila Kingdom to you in the future, you will be in contact with Her Majesty Alexia more. For the sake of the people who support you, and for the sake of the whole country, you must have a good relationship with Her Majesty Alexia, understand?”
Andrea bluntly spoke her thoughts. She saw through the thoughts of the Dragon God and the Silver Moon Goddess and knew that Alexia would stay as the queen of the Dragon Kingdom and the Silver Moon Kingdom for a long time, so for those who lived on the main continent, being on good terms with this queen was the most important.
As long as this queen remained on her throne, she would have the support of two gods. The Dragon Kingdom and the Silver Moon Kingdom would not become corrupt within a thousand years at the very least.
“Queen Mother, I will make an effort to engage with Queen Alexia as the princess of the Subila Kingdom, and not let my preferences get in the way!”
Aurora took a deep breath, and a determined expression appeared on her lovely face.
Seeing this, Andrea nodded her head in satisfaction.
“Since you understand, then go. I will have General Derek go with you to the Dragon Kingdom for an official visit this time! General Derek has always maintained a good relationship with the top brass of Dragon Kingdom, so you must ask him for more advice along the way!”
“Yes, Queen Mother!”
Aurora bowed her head with respect and excused herself to leave.
“Your Highness Princess Aurora!”
After leaving the chambers, Aurora heard a mature male voice.
It was a man in his forties with a beard. This was none other than Corwin who had served as Andrea’s guard for more than thirty years.
“Mr. Corwin.”
Aurora faced this guard who had been doing his duty for so many years and nodded slightly, “I have just been instructed by Queen Mother to do a task. I have no time to chat with you, so I apologize. I shall take my leave here.”
Looking at Aurora’s disappearing silhouette, Corwin shook his head and whispered, “Her Highness Aurora is as beautiful as Her Majesty Andrea when she was young.”
Aurora did not hear Corwin’s whisper; even if she did, she would not think much of it.
Corwin’s admiration for Queen Andrea was well-known throughout the palace. His admiration had persisted for more than thirty years to the point that he remained alone these past twenty years. He thought that the queen might one day accept him, but unfortunately, he was wrong. Andrea’s end goal was to become a god, so she would not let her body be touched by mortals. Moreover, Andrea already had solace for her soul, so she would not feel lonely at all.
‘This is probably the ultimate level simp, right?’
Aurora thought so. The word ‘simp’ was a new word that spread throughout the continent from the theater groups and bards that came out of Dragon Kingdom.
Aurora knew her mother’s ambitions and knew her mother’s secret preparations. The Brotherhood of Lies was not disbanded after Andrea took the throne, on the contrary, it was further developed by Andrea. She knew that she could not openly compete with the gods for faith nor did she dare to. So she secretly developed this organization and made all its members become her own believers.
Now, there were more than tens of thousands of people in the group. In other words, Andrea had tens of thousands of believers. Once the time came, she could use these believers to ascend.
Corwin was also a member of the Brotherhood of Lies. He was a guard who admired the queen and simped so hard that he became a believer. This was why Aurora felt that he was the ultimate level simp.
……
A large enjoy from the Subila Kingdom departed. At the same time, one of Louie’s incarnations turned into a noble young man with gorgeous clothes and appeared in Dragon City.
