Chapter 82.1: If I'm Discovered, My Life as a Teacher Will End (1)
North of Leta, Blazing Sun Wall.
Beneath the chilling Desolate Tundra, in the abyss where the two strongest demigods of the mortal world once fought...
Two elven demigods were conversing.
One of them was a young girl dressed like a mage; she was a new teacher of the White Light Courtyard, Elebella.
The other was a silver-haired demigod with stunning beauty but an extremely haggard expression—the Great Teacher of the White Light Courtyard, Elktela Lucia.
At that moment, the Great Teacher was listening to her student's report.
"In any case, that's it..."
Elebella sighed.
"I followed the orders of the seniors to stop the Black Catastrophes. However, just as I could no longer hold out, the demigod of Haines appeared. She evaporated the invading Black Catastrophe swarm instantly and flew into the depths of the tundra. I'm sorry, teacher. I should have stopped her, but I couldn't keep up with her speed."
The Great Teacher replied, "That's normal."
After all, the demigod who appeared at the critical moment in front of the defense line that was about to collapse and helped Elebella eliminate the Black Catastrophes was one of the strongest demigods in the mortal world, Edaline Haines.
There was naturally no way Elebella could deal with that monster.
"So... teacher."
Elebella probed, "Is that demigod of Haines really here to help us?"
The Great Teacher replied, "That's right. Haines has to carry out their mission. Be it friend or foe, they won't let any major country in the mortal world be destroyed."
Haines and Leta had a blood feud. Furthermore, a few years ago, a lunatic in the White Light Courtyard sacrificed his life to place an irreparable curse on the crystal throne of Haines. Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m
Even so, in the face of a crisis of the level of annihilation...
Haines was still a reliable comrade that the elves could trust.
The Moonlight Court was closely related to the ruler of Leta, the Moonlight Queen.
They were an organization that existed solely to assist the Moonlight Queen.
At the same time, only the Moon Goddess descendants of the Moonlight Court could give birth to a new Moon Queen.
Relying on the authority of the Moon Queen, the nobles of the palace could challenge the demigods, even in the years where no Moon Queens were born.
Armed with the fact that they were the only ones who could produce the new Queen, the Moonlight Court could fight against the White Light Courtyard without being disadvantaged.
But now...
Alice, who was picked up by the White Light Courtyard at the borders, made the Moonlight Court feel fear.
On the one hand, Alice would be a Moon Queen that did not belong to the palace.
On the other hand, due to grudges that were sowed in political strife in the early years, right now, most of the upper echelons of the Moonlight Court...
Had a blood feud with Alice.
Elebella asked in surprise, "In other words... despite knowing that their candidate won't be able to complete the ascension ritual, the nobles of the palace insist on snatching away Her Majesty Alice's sacred item to conduct a ritual that won't succeed?"
The Great Teacher replied, "That's right."
Notwithstanding the success rate, more importantly, the palace wanted to ensure that the newly crowned Moon Queen was aligned to their interests.
Evidently, in order for Alice to be crowned the new Moon Queen, things with the Moonlight Court would have to be settled first...
However, the matter of the Moonlight Court had to be put aside for the time being.
Right now, the Great Teacher had to focus on the defense of the northern border.
The Great Teacher said, "Elebella, I'll assign you a task."
Elebella was extremely respectful. "Please speak, teacher."
The Great Teacher said, "I want you to reconstruct Obadiah's barrier. Use the ancient dragon's barrier to defend the Blazing Sun Wall."
Elebella was shocked. "H-Hold on... Teacher, this is way too difficult. There's no way I can do it, right?!"
