Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 118.3: Pop Me Like a Champagne, Please! (?ω? ) (3)

As for why Rayne knew the Breaking Moon Queen so well that he knew every single move of the latter by heart...

Actually, it was all thanks to Alice.

The birth of the Emerald Moon Queen could be seen as Leta's final moments of lucidity. She was the only legendary existence among the queens of Leta for hundreds of years.

At the same time, she was the only true queen who could save Leta.

In reality, in the world line without the interference of Rayne, after a few years of growth, Alice could still clear the most difficult sacred test and defeat the Breaking Moon Queen.

According to the traditions of the Moonlight Queens, after the new queens defeat the heroic souls of the late queens and obtain the latter's blessings...

The new queens would then obtain a special skill.

Control.

They could summon the souls of the late queens in battle and use mithril to reconstruct their bodies, thereby recreating a Moonlight Queen to join the battle.

Therefore, in a sense, the Moonlight Queen's sacred test was like collecting Pokémon. As long as one could win against the other party, they could collect the defeated late queen and release the latter to attack at any moment.

There was a random aspect to the name list of the sacred test.

Therefore, every time the world was restarted, the late queen blessings Alice received would have some variations.

.

However, basically, all the Moonlight Queens who blessed her were highly ranked in the history of Leta.

In every single reincarnation, Rayne fought against the Emerald Moon Queen, Alice, constantly.

In order to defeat the Emerald Moon Queen, Rayne gradually understood the attacking patterns of the late queens and became familiar with their openings and weaknesses.

That was the reason why Rayne was able to come up with a perfect strategy today, allowing the incomparably noob Alice who had yet to even leave the beginner village destroy this incredible late queen.

What Alice did not know was that this knowledge she learned during the vigorous night before was all imparted by her to Rayne during intense fights of a different kind in the past.

However, even for someone as strong as Alice...

In his previous 999 reincarnation cycles, Rayne had never seen her receive the blessings of the Tragic Moon Queen even once.

In the end, that strongest Moonlight Queen of Leta was still way too ridiculously strong.

Just as Rayne was deep in his thoughts while cleaning up the battlefield of the night, the door to the study was pushed open.

An unexpected visitor that did not surprise Rayne appeared before him.

The peerlessly beautiful silver-haired elf appeared before Rayne with an indescribably strong emotion in that alluring and pure white dress.

It was the Great Teacher, Elktela Lucia.

She looked like she wanted to speak but stopped and averted her gaze.

When Rayne saw the Great Teacher, he asked curiously, "Great Teacher, haven't you gone to take a look at the sacred test of Alice?"

The Great Teacher shook her head gently and replied, "I believe in you… Alice won't lose."

Rayne smiled.

Today's Great Teacher looked a little different.

However, there was no longer the usual calmness and pride in her eyes today. Instead, there was an irrepressible… strong desire.

The Great Teacher closed the door and said softly, "Hey… Rayne."

Rayne smiled and asked, "Yes?"

The Great Teacher lowered her head shyly, not willing to meet Rayne's eyes. She asked softly, "Why… did you do that sort of thing with Alice?"

That sort of thing?

Was it about what happened last night?

Rayne was honest. "That's because I want to improve the relationship between Leta and Haines by obtaining the friendship of the Moonlight Queen."

The Great Teacher said, "In other words, you don't love Alice, right?"

Rayne was stunned.

He did not know how to reply to that overly blatant question.

"Can't you reply? Seems like you don't have any special feelings for her either… Since that's the case, why don't you accept me?"

There was a sorrowful sadness in the Great Teacher's eyes.

"I'm clearly more beautiful and useful than Alice… am I right?"

That was indeed the case for now.

Rayne could not refute the beauty and strength of the Great Teacher.

That was also the reason why Rayne did not really intend to give her the cold shoulder.

He remembered the promise he made to the Great Teacher. However, he truly felt that the timing was inappropriate yesterday; that was why he rejected her.

And now, the Great Teacher had specially sought him out for this and even said something that was so humiliating and humble for the Great Teacher of White Light.

Rayne went silent.

It was because he was stunned—he was indeed surprised that the Great Teacher would take the initiative to do so.

However, the Great Teacher misunderstood Rayne.

When she saw that Rayne did not say anything, she thought that he was going to reject her again.

That made the Great Teacher very flustered. The first time Rayne rejected her was because they had proper business to discuss. However, if she were to be rejected again...

Filled with shyness and humiliation, the Great Teacher was on the brink of tears and her voice was pleading and pandering.

"Rayne... don't do this, please..."

The Great Teacher begged.

"Please… tell me that you'll love me, alright? Even if you're lying to me, it's fine as long as we maintain a physical relationship… Rayne… I'll be as loyal to you as I am to Alice… I'll be at your disposal and obey any orders… as long as you're willing to love me."

The Great Teacher expended all her strength and said the most inferior proclamation she could.

At this moment, the Great Teacher no longer knew if she was sacrificing herself to save the Main God or if she was merely longing for Rayne's love.

Rayne listened in silence with a grim expression.

Thereafter, he revealed a bright smile.

"It's rare for you to say something like that, Elktela."

Rayne walked before the Great Teacher with a smile and lamented.

"You weren't like this in the past…"

Rayne murmured, "Yes, this wasn't how you were like, not in the slightest bit."

In his previous reincarnation cycles, just like the Emerald Moon Queen, the Great Teacher was also one of Rayne's nightmares.

She had a calm personality and was decisive in combat strategies. This unfathomable silver-haired elf could even defeat Histia with the quasigods sealed in her body!

She had killed Rayne more than once.

Each time he was on his deathbed, all Rayne could see was this elf's indifferent eyes.

Pride, coldness and insufferable arrogance.

After killing Rayne, she would spit out blood and cough furiously. Thereafter, she would throw the handkerchief that was used to wipe away the blood on Rayne's corpse.

Her blood was silver.

To be precise, she no longer had any biological blood. What flowed through her body was liquid mithril condensed from divinity.

Inhuman, merciless and powerful…

In the eyes of Rayne, she was the true god.

And now...

This true god could not help but tremble under the gaze of Rayne. She endured it with all her might and looked forward to it in fear. That humiliated appearance was so adorable…

Rayne's lament puzzled the Great Teacher. The Great Teacher mustered her courage and asked weakly, "…Then, Rayne, what's your answer… will you love me?"

"You're not worthy of my reply."

Rayne lifted the Great Teacher's chin and scrutinized her breathtakingly beautiful face from a distance.

There was no love confession or sincere promise.

Rayne ordered gently.

"Now, service me as you should."

"Yes…"
