Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 168.2: What a Greedy Little Fellow ? (2)

The Tragic Moon Queen understood. "So, you made Alice fall in love with you in order to improve the relationship between the two countries so that Leta can work with Haines?"

Rayne: "Yes."

"However, this is extremely disadvantageous for Leta and Alice."

The Tragic Moon Queen said, "According to what I know, the power that Goddess Order fears the most are the Original Sequences of creation. In fact, isn't there one... right in your family?"

Haines was the biological child of Order.

However, in history, Haines had received many divine punishments of Order as well.

If Rayne did not know what was good for himself and insisted on getting involved with an Original Sequence, eventually, he would still have to endure the inevitable crystal spear.

Rayne smiled. "Well, that's true. However, although the Original Sequences are dangerous, they are equally powerful."

The Tragic Moon Queen was worried. "I've already heard that from a child of mine. I think you know what happened to her in the end."

"Things are different now. At the very least, before Order awakens, the power of an Original Sequence is still extremely useful. As for her, she's also a necessity for us to defeat an enemy."

"Who?"

"Compassion."

"…"

The Tragic Moon Queen fell silent and looked at Rayne in surprise. "You want to help us defeat Compassion?"

"That's right."

"Why?"

"To build prestige and lead the elves."

"You're crazy."

"Is that so? However, we're already through with a third of my plan."

Rayne chuckled and said, "I've already obtained the fealty of the two highest leaders of Leta. Furthermore, I've nurtured the strongest Moonlight Queen."

That was true.

However, even without him, the Tragic Moon Queen was certain that her child would be able to grow into an outstanding Moonlight Queen in a few years.

Tragic Moon Queen: "Now that you've obtained Alice, what's your next plan?"

Rayne said, "Head to the heavens and join forces with the elves of the Heavenly Kingdom."

The Tragic Moon Queen said, "Even if the elves in the sky and the elves on the ground join forces, they won't be able to defeat my other self, alright?"

Rayne said, "Therefore, I still need more strength and chips. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I won't let the elves die with me. You should know… I've experienced the same script many times."

Those words awakened some bad memories in the Tragic Moon Queen's heart and she was slightly alarmed.

Alright...

She could accept that this person's background was extraordinary and take it that he was not joking.

The Tragic Moon Queen felt that she could observe Rayne's next move calmly first.

However, the Tragic Moon Queen still did not understand. "If you can really help the elves defeat Compassion, it's only right for the elves to submit to you. You deserve that for helping them escape their misery and I won't stop you as well. But... Why do you want the elves to submit to you? Why do you want to lead them to defeat Compassion? Is it because you want to unify the mortal world? Is it for charity? What's the meaning of all of this to you?"

Rayne's answer was very concise. "To deal with an even greater crisis."

The Tragic Moon Queen: "…"

Rayne's calm and determined tone made the Tragic Moon Queen think of many things instantly.

She recalled the tragic memories in Rayne's mind. Those memories were either painful or crazy, but they all seemed to have a certain firm conviction.

Suddenly, she felt that...

Rayne Haines was probably not a lunatic.

On the contrary, he might be some kind of nobler and more respectable existence…

"I understand."

The Tragic Moon Queen nodded gently.

"We'll do it as you wish. If you want to order Alice around, I won't stop you. In any case, it's not as though I can control that child now."

Rayne smiled.

"However, Your Majesty Tragic Moon, I have a question as well."

The Tragic Moon Queen asked, "What?"

Rayne said, "Your soul is bound to Alice, Your Majesty Tragic Moon. That also means that you'll have to share your senses with her. If that's the case... won't it be inconvenient for some things?"

The Tragic Moon Queen knew what Rayne was referring to.

The Tragic Moon Queen shrugged. "It's fine. I was the one who created the Moonlight Queen system and I was also the one who personally engraved the imprints of the late queens for them. Of course, I have a way to block my senses and maintain peace alone."

Rayne was a little regretful when he heard that. "…Is that so?"

"Oh? What an interesting expression. Could it be that… a mortal like you wants to covet the body of a goddess?"

The Tragic Moon Queen snickered but was not unhappy.

"Don't think about those useless things. While I can't bring myself to dislike you, as a god, I've never had the need to engage in copulation with anyone and neither do I intend to try. Don't even think about hitting on me. Alice is my most outstanding child. You have to treat her well."

Rayne nodded in agreement regrettably.

Looking at Rayne's disappointed expression, the Tragic Moon Queen chuckled internally.

What a greedy fellow…

After discussing serious matters, Rayne drank tea with the Tragic Moon Queen and waited for Alice's return silently.

The moonlight outside the window was resplendent. Through the window, Rayne could see Alice ascend the altar and receive the crown from the goddess to become the Moonlight Queen.

The coronation ceremony ended.

Alice walked down the altar and rejected the banquet after the ceremony. She bade farewell to everyone and walked backstage impatiently.

Thereafter, a dimensional rift opened in front of Rayne.

"Your Highness~?"

Alice was back.

Furthermore, the moment she saw Rayne, she was already in a state where she could be used at any moment.

Alice was simply soul-stirringly beautiful today.

After being crowned as the Moonlight Queen, her divinity increased exponentially and her looks naturally rose, causing Rayne, a mortal, to be intoxicated and unable to control himself.

Also, Alice was dressed in an unprecedentedly gorgeous manner today.

The extra fabric of the revealing gown was removed and revealed cleanly to Rayne.

It was too thin and tempting…

Alice could tell the change in Rayne's emotions as well and her smile became even more charming.

"Your Highness, is Alice beautiful today?"

Rayne smiled. "Incredibly."

Alice was overjoyed and became even more emotional. "Then do you want to do something to Alice?"

Rayne smiled.

"Of course I want to… but now is not the time."

Rayne walked to Alice and asked gently, "You shouldn't have forgotten our agreement with Her Highness Olivia, right?"

"Nopes… I didn't."

Alice smiled like a fool. "Your Highness ordered me to accept the divinity of Goddess Compassion as well as the blessings of Her Highness Olivia."

That was because only with the checks and balances of another god would Alice not be affected by the divinity in her body in the future when she fought Compassion.

Alice stared into Rayne's eyes. Through those deep and beautiful eyes, she seemed to see the beautiful princess sitting on the throne of thorns.

"So now, please let Her Highness Olivia... grant me the final imprint."
