Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects! Chapter 131

Published at 8th of August 2023 11:42:19 AM

Avowed Chosen, the Bride of the Gods

Under the Moonlight Queen's guidance, Lynn finally made up her mind.

Lynn did not know why the Blood Empress wanted to assign her this mission. However, she also understood that as a loyal follower of the Blood Goddess, she should not guess the intentions of the gods.

Since the Empress had already given the order…

In that case, she should execute it unconditionally.

Finally, Lynn decided that she wanted to give up on challenging Elktela for the time being.

She was not afraid of losing, but she indeed knew very well how strong Elktela was.

Ad

If she were to fight against Elktela and was eventually defeated and killed, she would not be able to complete the edict given to her by the Blood Empress.

Lynn challenged divine beings everywhere and sacrificed the blood of the strongest experts of the mortal world to the Empress in order to please her.

But now, the Empress was looking forward to her completing the edict.

Naturally, she could not put the cart before the horse.

Next, Lynn intended to bid farewell to the regent before heading to the Haines Empire to look for that Prince of Haines.

Because Lynn did not have the bloodline of the gods and knew nothing about magic, she could not use spatial teleportation to travel between the two regions quickly.

This trip to Haines would probably take some time.

At the same time, she had heard that Elktela's body was already exhausted and her life was on the brink of exhaustion due to the pressure of carrying the quasigods all year round.

Therefore...

Lynn intended to pay Elktela a visit before leaving Leta.

Before long, she arrived at the White Light Courtyard.

However, although she was in the base camp of Leta's demigods, she did not notice Elktela.

Therefore, she began to track down Elktela.

Eventually, Lynn found traces of Elktela in the palace of the Leta capital.

At that moment, Elktela had just left the palace and looked extremely weak, as though she had just experienced a fierce battle. Although she was exhausted, she was still filled with fighting spirit.

Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks and looked at the palace behind her with an infatuated smile.

Lynn hid in the shadows and observed Elktela silently.

Indeed, her health did not seem good.

However... she should not die for the time being.

That was good.

Lynn was relieved.

It would be a pity if Elktela died while Lynn was serving Prince Rayne, giving her no chance to challenge Elktela.

After all, Elktela was a powerful demigod that was rarely seen in the mortal world. Even Histia was filled with respect for her. The more such experts were killed, the less there would be remaining. As such, Lynn had to cherish every single one of them.

Lynn was prepared to leave in peace when she followed Elktela's gaze and took a second look at the Moonlight Queen's palace at the final moment.

However, that final look gave her a stunning scenery.

On the third floor of the Moonlight Queen's palace, in front of a floor-to-ceiling window that was shrouded by a barrier, a young man was looking at the scenery outside the window calmly.

It was an extremely beautiful man.

Just as Lynn was admiring the man's appearance, especially his incredibly charming eyes...

For a split moment...

Her heart skipped a beat.

An unprecedented feeling surged into her heart. However, it only lasted for a moment before disappearing…

She could only express a single praise.

Ad

"To think that… there would be someone so beautiful in this world."

Lynn said intoxicatedly.

Although she did not know the man, his aura and appearance matched her taste very well.

This strong sense of desire even caused Lynn to forget the fundamental question of why a human would appear in the capital of Leta.

"If… that Prince Rayne is as handsome as this gentleman…"

Lynn felt uneasy and embarrassed.

"That... wouldn't seem too bad."

But of course, there were no such coincidences in this world.

This was probably the only time in Lynn's life that she would meet this man.

At that thought, Lynn stole another glance at the man by the window. While she was impressed by his beauty, she sighed regrettably and left the palace.

The Blood Empress's mission was still waiting for her to complete.

It was time for her to leave.

…

At the same time, in the study of the Moonlight Queen's palace.

When Rayne inadvertently caught sight of the shadow that hid in the darkness like a corpse with its lifeforce concealed in the palace…

He was slightly shocked.

Naturally, he recognized the shadow hidden in the darkness right away.

It was Lynn.

Lynn, a former protector of the netherworld and a current fanatic follower of the Blood Empress. At the same time, she was the most elite chosen among the followers.

Chosens were subjects who underwent the sacred blood ceremony of the Blood Empress and hunted the top experts of the mortal world everywhere. They would sacrifice those blood and heads to please the Empress to fight with other subjects for the position of the Avowed Chosen.

Ad

The Avowed Chosen was the highest status a mortal follower of the Nether Realm could reach.

They would obtain the privilege of eternal life and the ability to travel back and forth between the Nether Realm and the mortal world, serving the goddess they believed in forever.

The relationship between the Avowed Chosen and the goddess was almost equivalent to the concept of marriage in mortal civilization.

Therefore, every evil god was extremely picky about the choice of an Avowed Chosen. At most, they would only select a single Avowed Chosen each era.

Even for ordinary chosens that were beneath the Avowed Chosens, they were similarly rare.

The quality of the chosens under the lead of each evil god was not uniform. However, they were definitely the most elite batch of followers. Therefore, there were extremely few of them and could be counted with one hand.

The fact that Lynn could become a chosen among the followers of the Nether Realm Empress was proof of her strength.

In order to collect her stupid trophies, this woman hunted divine beings all over the world for a long time. Because it was extremely difficult for her to die, she made waves everywhere. At times, she would target the Haines Empire and cause Rayne to suffer immense losses.

According to the experience that Rayne had accumulated in the 999 reincarnations previously, he had long known about her whereabouts.

Ad

At this time, there was indeed a chance for Lynn to pass by Leta.

But now, as he looked at this follower of the Blood Goddess, Rayne thought of another possibility.

She might be... the gift from the Blood Empress.

Previously, before the Blood Empress was exiled, she said that she wanted to give Rayne a gift. There was a high chance that this gift was…

Right then, Olivia, who was in Rayne's eyes, suddenly spoke.

"Right, Rayne."

Looking at the gradually disappearing Lynn, Olivia finally decided to lay her cards on the table with Rayne.

It was not that she did not want to give Rayne a surprise.

However, it was still better to be prepared for some things.

Now, it was time to tell Rayne and share the joy of bullying Justice with him.

Olivia smiled and said, "Now, I'm going to tell you an interesting secret…"
