Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 75.2: Rayney! How am I going to survive without you! Rayney! QAQ (2)

F-Feast?!

Instantly, Olivia's eyes lit up.

That's right!

The six alluring contracts between Rayne and Olivia were not completed yet!

Rayne had not forgotten about Olivia!

On the contrary, he remembered it and was prepared to fulfill his promise to Olivia!

He cares about me!

Rayne's encouragement filled her heart with hope!

At that moment, the door to the Nether Realm that belonged to Olivia began to close.

In Rayne's eyes, Olivia's figure shrank continuously.

However, the sadness on Olivia's face was gone. She had already pulled herself together.

Olivia revealed a bright smile.

"Wait for me! Rayne! The contract between us is still valid and you're still my best collaborator! I'll leave the dragon eyes for you! You have to work hard and bed a few more demigods as well, alright?! Stay strong while I'm not around!"

The door to the Nether Realm in his left eye shrank further.

The smile on Olivia's face stiffened as well.

She looked at Rayne.

She looked at this best entertainment supplier she had encountered in this era.

She looked at Rayne exchanging glances with the crazy b*tch who had just beaten her up and the gradual deepening of their relationship...

Finally, Olivia could not hold it in any longer.

"Boohoo… Rayne, how am I going to live if I can't see you open more bottles of champagne... Boohoo... Rayne... Justice! Can you record and send me a copy of Rayne's nightly activities? Please! Boohoohoo…"

Finally, amidst the embarrassing cries of a defeated dog, the connection between Olivia and Rayne was completely severed.

The door to the Nether Realm closed.

Right now, in Rayne's heart, there was only a single goddess; a supreme existence whom he had to swear fealty to.

The great Blood Empress, Her Majesty Justice.

"Alright, my future chosen."

The Blood Empress revealed a kind smile that did not match her character.

"What prayers do you have for your goddess now?"

…

Capital of Haines, grand prince's residence.

Half a month ago, the grand prince left the borders and returned to the capital.

Recently, the life of the grand prince had been extremely difficult. The pressure in his heart made him anxious day and night.

Previously, he received two pieces of news.

One bad and one good.

The bad news was that because of a sudden calamity, Gold Village was destroyed by the fiends of the Nether Realm and all the goblins died in that calamity.

All the collaborators that the grand prince had worked with for a long time were dead.

Initially, the grand prince thought that although the goblins were dead, there were still the dwarves as his allies.

However, when the grand prince made contact with the dwarves…

The dwarves… did not seem to know the grand prince at all.

Despite the grand prince's repeated hints, the dwarves were completely oblivious.

At that moment, the grand prince finally realized the despairing truth.

The cruel reality was laid out before the grand prince.

His collaboration with Gold Village did not involve the dwarves at all the entire time—it was completely planned by the goblins who took over Gold Village!

Next, he discussed the issue of the ownership of the throne of the Haines Empire…

In an extremely ridiculous fashion, the dwarves expressed clear support for Rayne with extreme praises towards the latter.

They said that His Highness Rayne would be a good Emperor in the future. He was the great hero who defeated the Evil God Justice. If Haines was under his rule in the future, the dwarf kings would be delighted and support him wholeheartedly!

In reverse, they asked... if the grand prince would give the same support as well.

Towards the hostile questioning of the dwarves, the grand prince could only wipe his sweat and smile embarrassedly.

"O-Of course I'm in support of him..."

Damn it!

When did that brat Rayne coax these damned shorties into his faction?!

The grand prince was indignant.

However, the invasion of Gold Village by the Nether Realm was not only a bad thing… because right now, there was also good news for the grand prince.

The goblins were dead.

Every single last one of them were dead. Even Gold Village was destroyed by the trampling of the Gospel Blood Cavalry, leaving nothing but ruins.

In that case…

Since the goblins were dead, Gold Village would have to be reconstructed by the dwarves.

That was great!

Right now, there was no longer any evidence of the grand prince colluding with Gold Village!

Now, the grand prince no longer had to fear that brat!

Initially, the grand prince intended to destroy Gold Village after he ascended the throne. But now, the fiends of the Nether Realm had already done the job for him!

It was perfect!

Rayne lost the evidence of the grand prince's treason.

With that, the grand prince could continue to fight for the throne openly with that useless brat, Rayne.

The initiative was with the grand prince.

How should he deal with Rayne next?

The grand prince's train of thought did not change.

The Haines Empire had a very special government.

.

Many important factors in other countries were not worth a mention in the Haines Empire.

Officials of Haines were of no threat.

Even the nobles and generals who wielded military power could be ignored.

However, there was a group of people who represented the lifeline of Haines and were existences that even the Emperor had to fear!

The Imperial Guards.

The grand prince knew very well.

Prince Rayne had a legitimate reason to inherit the Haines Empire. If he wanted to seize the throne, the grand prince would have to obtain the support of the Imperial Guards!

Now...

Which Imperial Guard should the grand prince curry favor with?

Right now, Hela had already submitted to Rayne and Lilia had already severed her connection with the grand prince.

The two Imperial Guards who were greedy and easy to bribe had already left the grand prince.

None of the remaining Imperial Guards were easy to deal with…

Histia?

No matter what, the grand prince could not expect to drag that woman into this mess.

Thea?

She was just a demigod with a lowly bloodline and was somehow labeled as an Imperial Guard—there was no value in bribing her.

Beth?

That honest nun looked like she was easy to deceive. Unfortunately, her belief in Order was too pious. Therefore, she would definitely abide by the ironclad rules left behind by the goddess and would not participate in the politics of Haines.

As for Edaline… yes!

Edaline!

The grand prince slammed the table and stood up excitedly!

He recalled something!

Didn't Edaline hate Rayne Haines the most?

Not only was she always referring to Rayne as trash, more importantly, she was extremely opposed to his ascension of the crystal throne!

Be it in private or in public, Edaline had never shied away from her disdain and contempt towards the prince!

Furthermore, what touched the grand prince the most was…

Edaline had just ended her battle at the Leta Desolate Tundra and returned to the capital yesterday to recuperate!

Right now, Edaline was in the capital and the grand prince could contact her at any moment.

Furthermore, he could take advantage of her break in the capital to take action at any moment!

That's right!

This was the most cost-effective candidate!

This time round...

He was definitely going to win!

Victory was within the grand prince's grasp!
