Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 117.1: Please... Seed Me (1)

There were a total of three steps to select a Moonlight Queen.

First, it was the most basic ascension ritual. Candidates had to take part in the divine ascension first and synchronize with the Main God, Compassion, to advance to become a demigod of the mithril lineage.

Thereafter, the new demigod had to start the sacred test immediately without stopping. She had to visit the tombs of the late queens to awaken the souls of the Moonlight Queens so that she could fight against them and obtain their recognition.

The sacred test was both a test and an opportunity.

Similar to how the purification of the bloodline through the ascension ritual would determine the upper limit of a demigod's future, the blessings of the late queens obtained by the Moonlight Queen in the sacred test would also determine to a large extent the future accomplishments of that Moonlight Queen.

The blessings bestowed by the Moonlight Queens would not only increase the combat strength of the new queen directly, if the previous queens were outstanding enough, their wisdom and lifetime of experience would be an utmost treasure that could change the new queen's fate.

Of course.

Those benefits could not be obtained from those third-rate Moonlight Queens who lived mediocre lives and did not even understand the meaning of their own existences.

That was precisely the reason why the future of a new Moonlight Queen could be seen just by taking a look at their opponents in the sacred test.

The mediocre could only be associated with the mediocre.

Only a true queen who was befitting of the title of the Moonlight Queen would dare to challenge ancestors who were as strong as her.

As for the Breaking Moon Queen...

This former queen was a legend that had left its mark in history.

She was a famous tyrant of Leta, a martial arts fanatic who did not know how to govern but had explosive combat strength.

In history, her rule was violent both internally and externally.

She did not know strategy or the human heart. She relied on bloodshed to govern her country and had even torn apart her teacher who had offended her.

However, her methods of dealing with quasigods were even more ferocious and violent.

The Breaking Moon Queen had once brought unforgettable pain to the quasigods and Leta—it was as though she had crushed all the quasigods that invaded Leta just so that the elves of Leta would fear her.

Just the blessings of a late queen like the Breaking Moon Queen alone would be enough to raise a Moonlight Queen's combat strength significantly.

However, at the same time, the difficulty of defeating her was also at the nightmare level.

That was because through the records of the past sacred tests, this tyrant had a bad habit that was extremely in line with her nature.

She would not care about Leta's future and kill the new queen wantonly!

Yet, precisely because Alice's opponent for the sacred test was so violent and twisted...

The moment the name of the Breaking Moon Queen was announced, the citizens of Leta fell into excitement and ecstasy.

Naturally, they were not hoping for Alice to die.

On the contrary, for the citizens of Leta who did not know about the tricks of the Sanctum Council, the fact that Goddess Compassion chose such a terrifying enemy for Alice also meant that she had an endowment comparable to such a legendary late queen!

Leta was saved!

The venue of the sacred test ceremony was open to the public.

The tomb of the Breaking Moon Queen was located in the suburbs of Leta's capital.

As early as yesterday, the temporary stands set up by magic around the tomb were already filled with spectators.

Therefore, the palace mages of Leta increased the capacity available for the spectators time and again. Despite that, the crowd was still endless.

In the past dozens of years, the commoners had seen way too many worthless exchanges between useless new and late queens.

However, this was the first time in hundreds of years that a new queen with such virtuous morals dared to take on the Breaking Moon Queen for the first time!

After the lengthy opening statement ended, amidst the tsunami of cheers from the citizens, the new queen, Alice, finally appeared.

Today, after a full night of coitus, Alice seemed to have become even more beautiful and enchanting. As a demigod, she possessed a supreme might that could make all living beings bow down to her with a single frown and smile.

And now, she could obtain the cheers of the citizens just by smiling at the audience. In fact, many elves were so touched that they shed tears as they looked up at Alice's appearance.

However… in reality.

Alice was not in a good condition today.

She had slept too late last night and did not even have time to take a shower when she went out.

In fact, there were still some... things remaining in her body that she had yet to clean up.

Right now, Alice could only squeeze her thighs shyly and force out an elegant smile to deal with the audience and judges.

At the same time…

At the front row of the audience, the nobles from the Moonlight Court watched the new queen, Alice, and discussed fervently.

In reality, ever since the name list of the sacred test was announced yesterday, the big shots of the palace had been in a nervous state.

In fact, some of them did not even dare to sleep the entire night.

Thankfully, even after waiting the entire night, they did not receive any acts of vengeance from the White Light Courtyard.

The new Moonlight Queen Alice had accepted the name list of the sacred test calmly.

This outcome caused quite a stir in the palace.

Some of them heaved a sigh of relief and mocked the cowardice of the demigods.

Some of them became increasingly nervous and broke out in cold sweat, guarding against unexpected attacks from their political opponents.

However, some people's fighting spirit began to waver.

Could it be...

Was the new queen selected by the Great Teacher truly so outstanding?

Could she even have the guts to challenge the Tragic Moon Queen?

If that was the case, they had to consider if they were on the wrong side.
