Chapter 181.2: An Unexpected Encounter with the Married Goddess (2)
The other party seemed to have just passed by coincidentally. He was also a little surprised when he noticed the God Consort.
"Your Highness..."Updated from n0velbIn.(c)o/m
Rayne said respectfully, "I didn't expect to see the God Consort of Dawn here. If I'm disturbing you, I'll leave right away..."
The God Consort hurriedly stopped Rayne. As an esteemed guest, Rayne should be treated well on behalf of the Heavenly Kingdom. Now that the prince wanted to admire the scenery at the periphery of the Heavenly Kingdom, she naturally could not disappoint him.
However...
The God Consort looked at Rayne and asked curiously, "Your Highness Rayne, the edge of the Heavenly Kingdom is very dangerous and not to be approached. Why did you come here?"
Did no one warn the prince after he visited Dawn?
Rayne smiled. "I do know the dangers at the edge of the Heavenly Kingdom. However, the threat here is only the children of Leviathan who occasionally come to the Heavenly Kingdom to prey on others. They are just ordinary wild beasts. Compared to the threats in the cosmos and the surface ground, they should be nothing, right?"
The God Consort: "Your Highness is right..."
The God Consort could tell that surprisingly, Prince Rayne was rather knowledgeable about the Heavenly Kingdom.
The God Consort stood up. "If you don't mind, Your Highness Rayne, shall I accompany you for a walk?"
Of course, Rayne could not agree. "How can I let the goddess deign to accompany me?"
The God Consort shook her head with a smile and walked to Rayne's side. "Actually... I was just about to apologize to you for the unhappiness yesterday. Our banquet wasn't well-planned."
Rayne immediately expressed his understanding towards the God Consort's apology.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
Thereafter, the prince and God Consort strolled around the wheat field together and chatted happily.
Rayne was knowledgeable, cultured and refined. His words were filled with wisdom and philosophy. At the same time, this prince was filled with respect for the God Consort but not excessive reverence. When she interacted with him, the God Consort felt extremely comfortable.
As expected of the successor of the strongest Empire in the mortal world.
"It was only at that moment that I realized that the internal problems of the Heavenly Kingdom were probably extremely serious."
T-That's exactly right...!
Looking at Rayne's face, the God Consort was touched at that moment.
After so many years... someone had finally noticed the existing problem of the Heavenly Kingdom just like she did.
However, after Rayne said that, he looked at the God Consort and revealed an awkward smile. "However, Your Highness, take everything I said earlier as a small talk between me and you. Please don't tell anyone else..."
As the Prince of Haines, Rayne was not suitable to say much about the internal matters of the Heavenly Kingdom.
The God Consort nodded and promised. She smiled kindly at Rayne. "Your Highness Rayne, we share the same worries. Therefore, you can speak freely with me."
Rayne first thanked the God Consort before sighing tiredly as well.
Just like the God Consort who was sighing to the sea of clouds earlier on, at this moment, Rayne revealed a helpless and exhausted expression as well.
He said softly, "Your Highness, the situation in the Heavenly Kingdom is critical right now. Both internal and external troubles are extremely serious. However, Your Highness, I hope you can believe me. I'm the Prince of Haines. Like you guys, I'm anxious about the current situation. My country has the mission of protecting the balance of the mortal world. This mission can sometimes have a negative effect on civilization. However, at the very least, my sister and I are in the Heavenly Kingdom today with only a single intention in mind. We want to help the Heavenly Kingdom defend against the attack of Far Silence."
"The Heavenly Kingdom repelled the invasion of this outer world Evil Star twice in a row and silently endured the pressure for the countries of the mortal world. However, right now, the Heavenly Kingdom is weakening day by day under the schemes of the enemy. The other countries on the surface might be able to sit back and do nothing. However, only the Haines Empire has to interfere and assist the Heavenly Kingdom to defend the mortal world."
Rayne was telling the truth.
This Evil Star named Far Silence that came from the depths of the universe was a threat to the entire mortal world.
In the early stages of the sixth era, the gods of the mortal world, Order and her Disciplinary Angel were in charge of resisting these threats.
Later on, as Order swept through the mortal world and destroyed the elven gods, she worked with Compassion to release the quasigods and forced the High Elves into the skies.
The High Elves became the frontline against the Evil Star to protect the mortal world.
In order to avoid the quasigods, the High Elves fled from the ground. This behavior was often criticized and mocked by the races on the ground.
However, in reality, as the most outstanding intelligent creatures in the mortal world, elves had always been filled with martial strength and peerless wisdom.
