The divinity of Life.

That was the authority of the Main God of the elven gods.

It should have been the strongest divinity of the elven race. However, with the massacre of the elven gods by Order, Compassion was the only one that remained of the elven gods and became the new Main God of the elves.

However, in the battle of Blazing Sun Wall…

Once again, the Great Teacher witnessed the terror of the divinity of Life and refreshed her understanding of the authority of Life!

Regarding how Rayne managed to transform a demigod puppet into the strongest demigod in the mortal realm using the authority of Life… this should have been a topic that the Great Teacher was interested in.

Unfortunately, even though they were discussing this at the moment, the Great Teacher seemed distracted.

Right now, she felt an inexplicable sense of panic just by looking at Rayne.

Rayne could tell that the Great Teacher was disinterested in scholarly discussions as well. As such, he changed the topic considerately.

Rayne asked, "Great Teacher, how has Alice been recently?"

The Great Teacher: "Alice? She's been quite energetic recently."

Rayne said solemnly, "Great Teacher, please take good care of her. The Moonlight Court is very hostile towards her. You and the few demigods must protect her well."

The Great Teacher said, "Of course. Alice is already Leta's last hope… However, Rayne Haines, your concern for her is unnecessary. She's already the Empress of Leta."

Rayne revealed a smile and said sincerely, "I naturally know that there's an unresolvable feud between our two countries. However, politics should not be controlled by emotions. I merely hope that through Her Majesty Alice, I can improve the relationship between Leta and Haines."

With that said, Rayne looked at the Great Teacher sincerely.

"Therefore, it's not only Her Majesty Alice. If possible, I hope that I'll have the chance to care about you as well, revered Great Teacher."

That was undoubtedly a stupid statement that was idiotic.

The Great Teacher of White Light was the strongest existence in Leta.

She was the protector and guide of Leta.

In the entire Leta or even the mortal world, there was no one qualified to ‘care’ about her.

However, the Great Teacher's gaze shuddered and her voice turned stiff.

"Don't try to curry favor with me, Rayne Haines. This method doesn't work on me. Your sweet nothings… you should save them for Alice."

"No… these are not sweet nothings. I truly want to build a good relationship with you."

Rayne smiled helplessly.

Thereafter, he seemed to have thought of something. "Right, Great Teacher, there's something I don't know if I should say."

With her keen senses, the Great Teacher noticed what was happening. "Don't say it!"

Rayne asked, "Previously, in that small town, Edaline said that you were holding a spell projection of me… Erm, was that true?"

I've already said you shouldn't say it!

The Great Teacher was on the verge of breaking down.

What was meant to happen had still come!

Indeed, Rayne Haines remembered everything that happened that day.

Fine, there was probably nobody who could forget the scene of the two strongest demigods in the mortal world fighting one another because of a spell projection.

Just as the Great Teacher was thinking about how to cover up this matter…

Rayne continued,

"To be honest, I'm surprised."

Rayne smiled at the Great Teacher with an unusually… calm attitude.

"Great Teacher, to think that you would have such needs as well."

The atmosphere gradually turned flirtatious.

Under Rayne's questioning, the Great Teacher was forced into a passive position.

The Great Teacher tried her best to maintain her composure. "Don't spout nonsense. It's just a misunderstanding."

Rayne continued to attack calmly. "However, I don't think Edaline will lie… Great Teacher, I'm truly flattered by your admiration for me."

"N-No…"

Finally, the tone of the Great Teacher could no longer be as cold and indifferent as before. In an extremely rare moment, she revealed a flustered expression and her voice was almost pleading.

"Rayne Haines, if you really want to build a good relationship with me, forget about what happened that day…"

Rayne asked, "You mean to say that as long as I don't mention that matter, I can obtain your friendship?"

The Great Teacher: "Y-Yes…"

The Great Teacher heaved a sigh of relief internally… it seemed like her concession had brought this troublesome matter to an end for the time being.

However, things did not go as planned.

Rayne smiled. "Your friendship sure is cheap then."

"… Huh?"

The Great Teacher's heart skipped a beat.

Unknowingly, the initially amiable Rayne had already arrived before her.

He looked at the Great Teacher with a hint of mockery.

"Great Teacher Elktela Lucia, I just want to know… what were you doing with my projection that day?"

At this point, Rayne's aggressiveness had completely gone beyond the scope of friendly diplomacy.

This could already be considered as a humiliation.

The Great Teacher should have retaliated forcefully.

However, for some reason… she could not bring herself to hate this domineering Rayne.

She averted Rayne's gaze weakly.

"That's all for this topic! I-I'm going to check on the situation on Alice's side…"

With that said, she hurriedly activated the teleportation gate and left the greenhouse.

…

The Great Teacher returned to the palace of Leta.

However, she did not go to see Alice right away.

In that deserted corridor, the Great Teacher could not believe what she had just done.

She had lost her composure!

It was way too humiliating!

How could she have escaped at that time?!

It was Rayne Haines. It was all that fiendish man's fault. As long as she was with him, the Great Teacher could not help but panic and lose her judgment!

The Great Teacher could not take it anymore…

No.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from tinyurl.com/37k7u89t.

This can't go on!

At this rate... I don't know what I'll end up doing with him.

I'm the Great Teacher of Leta. Before Alice grows up, I'll be Leta's only pillar of support.

I must not… fall in love with an enemy at this moment!

Finally, the Great Teacher made up her mind.

She had to eradicate her feelings for Rayne.

She had a feasible method for that as well.

She would seek help from the quasigods in her body.

"Supreme beings, please."

The Great Teacher prayed internally, "Please remove my corruption of the evil dragon. I can't hold on much longer."

However, the quasigods did not reply to the Great Teacher's prayers.

[Elktela Lucia, your emotional fluctuations are not caused by the corruption. ]

"…What?"

[At the very least, the corruption is not the main reason. ]

"I don't understand what you guys are talking about. It shouldn't be difficult for you guys to just remove a Nether Realm corruption, right?"

[Sorry, Elktela Lucia. This is not within our contract. ]

[We wish you happiness.]

The quasigods' voices returned to silence.

...What?

The Great Teacher panicked.

What did they just say?!
