Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!
Chapter 193: Initial Far Silence, Star ElfChapter 193: Initial Far Silence, Star Elf
That night, Rayne dreamed.
He saw his past again.
"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty Rayne Haines. I'm the God Consort of Heavenly Kingdom Dawn. On behalf of the High Elves, I express my deep gratitude to you for the selfless support of the Haines Empire… Um, please forgive my rudeness. Can I ask what perfume you're using? It smells intoxicating."
"Look at your disappointed expression… You must have met my husband and the other kings of the Heavenly Kingdoms, right? Unfortunately, the difficulties that the Heavenly Kingdoms are facing now are not only from the outer world. Why don't I be your envoy and help you coordinate with the kings? Alright, thank you for your trust. We will definitely obtain the final victory."
"My complexion is terrible? It's fine. This is a normal phenomenon after the Star Incineration. I'm already used to it. Thank you, Your Majesty Rayne. Really… you're the only one here who cares about me."
"Your Majesty Rayne, you want to know my name? Actually, apart from the title of God Consort, I have another real name. That's the name I used in my hometown. The name itself sounds like a tongue twister. You're the only one I told it to. Yes, of course, my husband doesn't know that compared to him, Your Majesty Rayne… you're more trustworthy."
"Sommerfeld is dead and the Heavenly Kingdoms have lost… In the end, they succeeded. The war will shift to the mortal world next. Perhaps, the mortal world will need the power of the Starburst. Your Majesty Rayne, can you be my God King? That's if… you don't mind that I'm second-hand."
"Ah… I'm really happy that you agreed. From now on, I'll dedicate all my love to you… My God King, my only true love."
"Your Majesty Rayne, don't just go to Thea's place at night… Come and accompany me occasionally, alright? Oh... So you were only asking Thea to help you cleanse your mental corruption? That's true. Fighting those monsters must have given you a lot of pressure, right? I'm sorry… I'm too shameless. I'll be more sensible in the future."
"Rayne, I'm so happy. Just looking at you every day makes me feel… Ah, life is really beautiful."
"Rayne, the war is about to end. Really… don't you want to do it with me once?"
"Congratulations, Rayne. The corruption has been completely eradicated and the anchor points have all been destroyed. The Evil Star can no longer threaten the mortal world. You've won. No… you're still one step away from purging Far Silence completely."
"In the mortal world, there's still an apostle of Far Silence who hasn't been destroyed. She was the first Far Silence apostle who arrived in the mortal world and killed and replaced all other Star Elves of her era. She possesses peerless beauty and an enchanting body. She was created to please the opposite sex completely. That's the reason why she's able to rely on her sharp sense of smell to find the strongest hero on this planet, strengthen him, serve him, tempt him and eventually incite him to defect... Now, my dear, as long as you kill this final Far Silence apostle, this calamity can be resolved."

"I've always known my mission. However, Rayne, I can't do it. I can't bear to leave you homeless."
"So, darling, now, please do what you have to do."
"Eliminate the last remnant of Far Silence and end this war."
"Please don't feel sorry for me."
"To be able to meet you at the end, I no longer have any regrets in my life."
"I love you…"
…
Countless fragments of memories flashed through his hungover brain, causing Rayne to moan in pain on the bed.
That was until a beam of light shone on Rayne, causing his pain to subside rapidly.
Rayne opened his eyes.
It was Edaline who helped Rayne get rid of his hangover with a spell.
Edaline asked, "Awake now?"
Rayne nodded and looked out of the window. The sun was shining brightly and it was already noon.
Rayne asked softly, "After I was drunk yesterday… what happened?"
Edaline shrugged. "After you got drunk, you turned into a pure scumbag. First, you confessed to the God Consort. Then, you kissed her forcefully, tore her clothes apart and pulled out the Starburst… Fortunately, the other party didn't seem angry. She was just scared out of her wits."
Edaline asked suspiciously, "Don't you remember these things?"
Rayne rubbed his head. "I only remember a portion… After all, I was really a little drunk back then."
He made use of the fact that he lost control after drinking to express his love to the God Consort in a convenient manner. Furthermore, he seized the opportunity to pull out the Starburst and forcefully establish an unspeakable relationship with the God Consort.
This was the first step in Rayne's plan to take down the God Consort.
Although it was a little scumbag, there was no other way. Against mature married women, the methods always had to be a little more exciting.
Actually, Rayne and the God Consort were already in love.
The God Consort had long taken a fancy to Rayne. For some reason, Rayne also had a good impression of the God Consort in his heart.
However, due to the restrictions of their status and secular morals, the two of them could not take the opportunity to fall in love openly.
The God Consort was a married woman.
Furthermore, the Star Attendant Court had a rule that forbade the God Consort from betraying her God King.
That was unless the first God King died and the threat of Far Silence was still unresolved. As such, the God Consort might choose a second God King to serve given those forced circumstances.
Apart from that...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe God Consort should not have any improper thoughts towards men other than the God King.
Therefore, be it Rayne or the God Consort, they all needed an opportunity to indulge in their flirtatious ambiguity and advance their relationship.
And now, that accidental opportunity had already happened.
The chaste married woman had already been 'used' and 'tainted' by Rayne in a drunken mess.
In that case…
At that moment, Edaline saw that Rayne was silent and said leisurely, "However, Rayne, I have to say that your performance yesterday was really exciting… How could you confess so sincerely to a stranger you've only met a few times? Even after you're drunk, your acting skills are still so superb."
Edaline asked mockingly, "Man, you really have a thing for the wives of others. That's why you can't control yourself, right?"
Rayne did not say anything and lowered his head in silence. "…"
Edaline was stunned for a moment. "Erm… did I go overboard?"
"No, you're quite cute like this. It's just that I thought of something…"
Rayne forced a smile. He stood up and changed his clothes that reeked of alcohol. He took a shower, washed up and tidied himself.
"I'm going out for a while."
"Where to?"
Rayne smiled. "To meet my beloved wife of someone else."
