Chapter 153.1: Sister's Visit (1)

In the Moonlight Queen's study.

After sending Alice out and explaining the mission to the teachers, Rayne waited calmly for news of Alice and the others.

Sebastian Adonis.

That was the greatest and most infamous ley lines priest in recent times.

This person was ruthless and had no bottom line in his actions.

He was a person with ideals.

What he had always advocated was for Leta to launch an all-out war against Haines with all their might. If they won, they would dominate the mortal world. If they lost, it would be a glorious end for this dying empire.

Although Sebastian's thoughts were extreme, in this country that was blinded by hatred, his ideas were actually quite well received.

At the same time, apart from the citizens of Leta, he was also the focus of the fervent attention of another organization.

Order and Haines.

That was because such a person was undoubtedly the unstable factor that Order and the Haines Empire wanted to destroy the most.

Not to mention, he even cursed the crystal throne of Haines, causing huge trouble for the secular rulers of Haines.

He was practically stuffed to the brim with hatred.

Therefore, in truth, it had never been difficult to destroy Sebastian.

As long as Rayne reported to his family that the regent was a ley lines priest and had a way to summon Sebastian from the ley lines…

In that case, Histia and Edaline would group up and arrive at the battlefield within 10 seconds and use any means to force the regent to use a spell to summon Sebastian. Thereafter, they would blow him up into ashes immediately.

That was the simplest and crudest operation.

Rayne did not want to play like that.

Once the Haines Imperial Guards invaded Leta, coerced the regent and killed the sleeping hero, it would definitely cause a wave of hatred for the Haines Empire.

Now that Rayne had already tamed the Empress of Leta, as long as they continued to maintain the relationship between the two countries, even if they could not reach the extent of them letting go of their hatred and reconciling with one another to become close buddies...

However, at the very least, they could try their best to be united against a common enemy in the face of the final apocalypse.

Therefore, Rayne wanted to bury this 'hero' as legitimately as possible using the power of Leta itself.

Apart from that, because it was simple to destroy Sebastian, Rayne could also consider how to maximize the benefits of his death.

He could let Sebastian produce some remaining value before he died, just like the latter's father.

For example, doing... certain actions that were inconvenient for Alice to do personally but still required somebody to dirty their hands.

At that moment, Sebastian had just been reborn from the ley lines.

However, every single step from his resurrection to death had been planned carefully by Rayne.

Now, all he had to do was just wait.

Rayne looked at the stack of paper spell conductors in his hands.

This was also a strategy for a late queen.

Apart from the Tragic Moon Queen, there was one more late queen that Alice had to challenge.

The Monarch Moon Queen.

Overall, Monarch Moon was an extremely legendary and powerful late queen. However, Alice had already taken down late queens who were even more legendary and powerful than here.

Naturally, it was not a problem to take down Monarch Moon either.

There was nothing to worry about.

Right then, suddenly, a spell projection appeared before Rayne's eyes.

"…?"

Rayne was stunned.

The spell originated from within his body.

It was a detection spell left on Rayne by Thea Constance to check Rayne's vital signs at any time for the sake of rescue.

However, this spell was currently activated by another person. Furthermore, this person used superhuman strength to temporarily strengthen it from afar, turning it into a superior spell that could allow instant communication.

In the entire mortal world, there was only one person with such strength and motive.

Before long, Edaline's figure appeared in the spell projection.

Edaline waved at Rayne. "Yo, Rayne, are you dead yet?"

Rayne shrugged. "I don't think so."

Edaline smiled. "That's good!"

Today, Edaline, who had nothing to do, made plans to greet her weak brother who was living far away.

Rayne looked healthy and in good spirits. There was nothing to worry about.

Rayne asked, "What about you? Are you feeling better?"

Edaline said helplessly, "Yes, I'm better. However, I feel that my strength hasn't returned to its original state."

Rayne instructed, "Then rest for a while more. The current you has nothing to do with Order in essence. The divinity authority of the past will definitely feel different as well when you use it—you can only get used to it slowly."

"Yes, I know."

Edaline said, "However, resting is one thing. I'm not crippled anymore. It's not a problem for me to fight. Therefore, what I mean is…"

She asked with concern, "Rayne, do you need my help?"

Rayne chuckled and waved it off. "Don't worry about me. Just recuperate in peace."

Edaline asked, "So... you have an idea how to deal with the curse?"

Rayne said, "Yes, it will probably be resolved in a week."

"Wow…"

Edaline was shocked. "So fast?"

Rayne said, "It's just a small matter. Recently, I'm mainly busy because I'm spending a lot of effort to train the Moonlight Queen."

Train the Moonlight Queen…

Edaline had indeed heard recently that Leta had a new queen with terrifying combat strength.

It seemed like… that was Rayne's work.

She was silent for a moment before she suddenly thought of something.

Edaline said, "Speaking of which, I have a question."

Rayne asked, "What's wrong?"

Edaline said, "If you remove the curse, that woman, Cassius, can still live for a long time."

Rayne smiled. "As children, of course I want my parents to live a long life. Isn't that a good thing?"

Edaline said, "But you won't be able to be the Emperor anymore, isn't it?"

Initially, Edaline was against Rayne becoming the Emperor. However, that was only because the crystal throne was a life-threatening threat to him.

But now, on the contrary, Edaline was concerned about when that old woman, Cassius, would abdicate and give the throne to Rayne.

"Little Eda…"

Rayne explained with a bitter smile, "The Emperor is the soul of a country who directly determines the rise and fall of the country. That role has to be filled by the most capable person."

Edaline asked, "Don't you have the ability?"

Rayne smiled. "I don't have time."

Rayne had always admired the political standard of his mother, Empress Cassius.

Rayne could leave the Haines Empire to her to manage with a peace of mind.

Although Rayne's mother had always been looking forward to him taking over her position and expanding his ambitions on the throne, Rayne knew very well that… the time was not ripe.
