Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 142: Your Highness…

After obtaining Constance's blood, Rayne returned to Leta and began the reforging of the broken porcelain sword in a flurry.

Reforging this final piece of work was a rather complicated process.

This was a very precise set of instrument and was even more complicated than ordinary God Regulating Mechanisms. In fact, it required the complete industrial system of the Porcelain Moon Dynasty to begin manufacturing.

Fortunately, Rayne did not need it to truly give this thing the ability to time travel.

As long as it was combined with Thea's blood and some improvements, the final work of the Porcelain Moon Queen could be barely activated, allowing the Porcelain Moon Queen to see hope. That should be enough for her to come out of seclusion and hand over her soul for binding.

After a meticulous design, Rayne finally came up with a plan. He could use all sorts of magic to cut corners and allow the final piece of work to barely function without involving the industrial system.

In that case, it was time to get to work.

Rayne brought the broken porcelain sword to the most advanced magic laboratory in Leta.

In the teachers' workshop of the White Light Courtyard.

This was a laboratory specially used by demigods. It contained the highest level of magic and alchemy equipment in the entire Leta.

It was moderately sufficient for Rayne.

However, they were equipment for demigods after all. As a mortal, it was impossible for Rayne to activate them.

Therefore, he had to find a demigod assistant for himself.

Right now, Alice was busy with work and the Great Teacher was still in Heavenly Kingdom Dawn. The true bodies of the three teachers were not in the capital. From the looks of it…

There was only one person Rayne could seek help from.

"You want me to be your assistant, Your Highness? Ah, of course! If you don't mind... it'd be my honor!"

After knowing Rayne's request, Elebella nodded excitedly.

Ever since Rayne destroyed the pathway between the crystal ark and the mortal world, the threat of the Black Catastrophe no longer existed. Naturally, Elebella had a chance to return to Leta and continue her studies.

Like all Leta elves, Elebella hated humans and the Haines Empire as well.

However, Rayne was an exception.

Elebella's feelings towards Rayne were filled with admiration and respect.

That was because Rayne was simply the most knowledgeable and intelligent person she had ever seen in her life!

Although it was a little disrespectful to say that, Elebella truly felt that even her teacher, Elktela, was not as knowledgeable as Rayne.

It was Elebella's honor to be Rayne's assistant. Her only worry was whether she was qualified enough to help the respected Highness Rayne.

Next, Rayne explained the job to her briefly.

However, that only made Elebella more nervous.

Elebella asked weakly, "Your Highness, although I really want to help you, is it really alright for someone like me... to work on such a grand project like repairing the final work of the Porcelain Moon Queen?"

"Of course there's no problem."

Rayne's reply was a warm smile. "Miss Elebella, you are smart and extremely talented. Be it working with you or imparting knowledge to you, it's a pleasure for me. Therefore, don't worry. In fact, this grand mission might be destined for you."

"Your Highness!"

Elebella was extremely touched. Rayne's words encouraged her, especially when she heard him mention that it was a pleasure to work with her.

Now that Elebella no longer doubted herself, she smiled at Rayne with fighting spirit.

"I'm ready, Your Highness!"

Next, under Rayne's instructions, Elebella used the equipment in the workshop to begin a series of high-intensity and precise forging work.

A few hours later.

"Alright, that's all for today."

The shining magic power furnace gradually extinguished and the colorful spells that lingered in the magic workshop dissipated methodically under Elebella's control.

Finally, when the final spell was eventually shut down...

Elebella finally had a chance to catch her breath.

"I-It's finally over…"

The mana in Elebella's body was drained and she was almost exhausted. "Your Highness… how much progress have we completed?"

Rayne smiled. "Nearly a third. We've met the target for today. Thank you for your hard work, Elebella."

Reforging the final piece of work was naturally not an easy task.

The high-intensity work exhausted Rayne and Elebella.

However, Elebella was extremely happy and satisfied.

This time round, she learned a lot of new knowledge after working with His Highness Rayne. There were many obscure theories that she would not be able to comprehend even after a few months in her usual studies. But now, she gained epiphanies about them with just a few words from Rayne.

Furthermore, their collaboration today strengthened Elebella's thoughts once more…

His Highness Rayne was indeed a perfect person!

He had an extraordinary manner of speech and was gentle and refined. He was filled with patience and care for Elebella. At the same time, he was extremely skilled in the professional field.

Elebella's longing for Rayne soared once more. In Elebella's heart, Rayne's image was almost equivalent to a god!

Wiping the sweat off her forehead, Elebella looked at Rayne with a smile. "Your Highness, do you have any plans next?"

Rayne felt a little tired as well. However, it was merely his mind that was tired; his body was still in good condition.

Rayne replied truthfully, "Actually, I have a date."

"I-Is that so…"

For some reason, Elebella felt conflicted when she heard the word 'date'.

There was a hint of disappointment as well as enviousness...

However, Rayne did not think too much about it.

To him, interacting with the two daughters of the regent was just work.

Today, he still had to go out for a date with the two daughters of the regent or perhaps do something else to improve their relationship.

Those two daughters were pawns Rayne used to pressure the regent. Before he achieved his goal, Rayne would maintain a good relationship with the two elven sisters.

After bidding farewell to Elebella, Rayne activated his disguise and left the White Light Courtyard.

On the other side.

Elebella looked at Rayne's back view as he left. The young demigod could not calm down for a long time.

"Your Highness Rayne, Your Highness Rayne, Your Highness Rayne..."

Elebella whimpered Rayne's name softly with an unprecedented… coquettishness.

In reality, the three teachers were not the only demigods of Leta that had been corrupted by the Nether Realm corruption.

During the invasion of the Nether Realm, as the intensity of the battle increased, Elebella joined the battle in the later stages. Just like the others, she was tainted with some additional things from the dead fiends as well…

Elebella did not know what it was.

Less than that, she did not know what was going on with her feelings at all...

She was extremely vexed.

Why...

Why is it that each time I see His Highness Rayne...

My lower body will burn up uncontrollably...
