Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 115.1: Your Highness, Please Use Alice to Your Heart's Content ? (1)

The facts had proven that the secular rulers of Leta were indeed much more unreasonable than the rulers of Haines.

They actually dared to arrive at the house of the strongest demigod of Leta and cuff away her guest right in front of her.

Rayne was convinced that the officials or royalty of Haines would definitely not dare to do the same to Histia.

However, Rayne understood the reason behind things as well.

After all, they had an extremely firm reason for capturing Rayne.

In terms of outcome, this was the end for Rayne. Even if he was imprisoned by the palace of Leta, he would become a prisoner of the Moonlight Court.

The elves were not so deranged as to send Rayne to prison. Instead, they brought him to the Moonlight Queen's palace and locked him up in a room that could isolate any perception detection.

Although Rayne was imprisoned, at the same time, he indirectly obtained the right to stay in Leta during the coronation ceremony of Alice.

Everything that happened right now had not exceeded Rayne's expectations.

In fact, the person who pushed Leta to make such a move was Rayne himself.

In all honesty, Rayne had already reincarnated a thousand times in this world.

For some people, he could read their mines completely and predict their actions with perfect precision, just as though he was playing with a puppet. Through a series of indirect methods, he could manipulate the person's actions with absolute accuracy.

There were extremely few people like those.

This required a deep understanding of the target's behavior that could only be gained through countless interactions and face-offs. Furthermore, the target had to be stupid enough.

The grand prince met all the requirements perfectly.

Even from thousands of kilometers away, Rayne knew what the cute grand prince was plotting in the capital of Haines.

Previously, after Rayne defeated the Blood Empress in Gold Village, before he went to cultivate in Remembrance Pure Land, he asked the puppets to send a parcel.

He requested for them to think of a way to send the skull of Compassion to the grand prince.

There was no need for them to do it through brilliant means. In any case, he would not be able to tell.

Right now, that very skull was the bargaining chip between the grand prince and the palace of Leta.

This was a bargaining chip that the Leta elves would definitely not reject.

What happened next was easy to predict.

As an enemy of Haines, there was only a limited number of things the grand prince could request Leta to do.

However, killing Prince Rayne who was passing by Leta was one of them.

The grand prince had already suffered many losses in the hands of Rayne and his hatred towards the latter had grown. Now that he could get a chance to kill Rayne with a skull he obtained for free, he was naturally more than happy to oblige.

Yet, how could the Leta elves be stupid enough to really kill Rayne?

The White Tower incident happened 10 years ago.

Among the nobles of the Moonlight Court, there were also many kin who died tragically under the forbidden curses of the Haines Imperial Guards.

It was definitely impossible for them to agree to the grand prince's request right away. Instead, they would use a more conservative plan and detain Rayne temporarily to leave room for future negotiations.

However, the detention period would not last long either.

After all, as long as Leta did not kill Rayne, the goddess's skull would not be able to return to its homeland.

On the one hand, it was the safety of the country. On the other hand, it was supreme faith.

Thereafter, an intense argument would definitely break out between the conservative and radical factions.

After that, as the situation became increasingly unfavorable for the palace, the situation would lean towards the radical faction and the voices of killing Rayne would grow louder and louder—until they carried out the plan and retrieved the goddess's skull.

The above was Rayne's judgment of the future situation.

Although the skull of Compassion was an extremely precious treasure, Rayne was completely comfortable with handing it over to the grand prince.

While the skull may be precious, for the grand prince, it was completely worthless apart from being able to threaten the elves.

Therefore, there were only two places the skull could end up.

It would either be kept safe and secure by the grand prince or it would return to the hands of the Moonlight Court.

Once the skull of Compassion was truly returned to Leta, when that day came, Rayne would be able to make use of the palace to carry out the next stage of his plan.

Everything was still under control.

However, now that Rayne's personal freedom was taken away, there were many things that he could not do personally.

Thankfully, he already had two reliable tools in Leta.

All Rayne had to do was control Alice and the Great Teacher from this room and the plan could advance step by step.

However, Rayne was a little greedy. Apart from the Great Teacher and Emerald Moon Queen, he wanted to establish a trustworthy relationship with the other Leta demigods as well.

Yes…

Rayne calculated the timeline.

Perhaps it was time for him to get acquainted with the teachers of the White Light Courtyard.

…

At the same time.

White Light Courtyard.

In the meeting hall, the Great Teacher called for the teachers of Leta as well as the future Moonlight Queen, Alice.

Teachers who were required to guard the borders appeared in the form of projections.

The only people who were truly alive in the meeting hall were the Great Teacher who was presiding over the center and the demigod Alice who was preparing for the coronation ceremony.

That's right.

Not long ago, when the Great Teacher left the Deep Tundra after submitting completely to Rayne, apart from changing into new clothes, she also did something serious.

She hosted Alice's ascension ritual.

The ritual was extremely successful. After her ascension, the purity of Alice's bloodline surged and even caught up to Haine's group of famous purebred dogs.

Alice was extremely lucky. Perhaps unknowingly, she was long destined to be the queen who would save Leta.

Right now, Alice had already ascended successfully to become a mithril demigod under the lineage of Compassion.

Following that…
