Chapter 193: Initial Far Silence, Star Elf
That night, Rayne dreamed.
He saw his past again.
"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty Rayne Haines. I'm the God Consort of Heavenly Kingdom Dawn. On behalf of the High Elves, I express my deep gratitude to you for the selfless support of the Haines Empire... Um, please forgive my rudeness. Can I ask what perfume you're using? It smells intoxicating."
"Look at your disappointed expression... You must have met my husband and the other kings of the Heavenly Kingdoms, right? Unfortunately, the difficulties that the Heavenly Kingdoms are facing now are not only from the outer world. Why don't I be your envoy and help you coordinate with the kings? Alright, thank you for your trust. We will definitely obtain the final victory."
"My complexion is terrible? It's fine. This is a normal phenomenon after the Star Incineration. I'm already used to it. Thank you, Your Majesty Rayne. Really... you're the only one here who cares about me."
"Your Majesty Rayne, you want to know my name? Actually, apart from the title of God Consort, I have another real name. That's the name I used in my hometown. The name itself sounds like a tongue twister. You're the only one I told it to. Yes, of course, my husband doesn't know that compared to him, Your Majesty Rayne... you're more trustworthy."
"Sommerfeld is dead and the Heavenly Kingdoms have lost... In the end, they succeeded. The war will shift to the mortal world next. Perhaps, the mortal world will need the power of the Starburst. Your Majesty Rayne, can you be my God King? That's if... you don't mind that I'm second-hand."
"Ah... I'm really happy that you agreed. From now on, I'll dedicate all my love to you... My God King, my only true love."
"Your Majesty Rayne, don't just go to Thea's place at night... Come and accompany me occasionally, alright? Oh... So you were only asking Thea to help you cleanse your mental corruption? That's true. Fighting those monsters must have given you a lot of pressure, right? I'm sorry... I'm too shameless. I'll be more sensible in the future."
"Rayne, I'm so happy. Just looking at you every day makes me feel... Ah, life is really beautiful."
"Rayne, the war is about to end. Really... don't you want to do it with me once?"
"Congratulations, Rayne. The corruption has been completely eradicated and the anchor points have all been destroyed. The Evil Star can no longer threaten the mortal world. You've won. No... you're still one step away from purging Far Silence completely."
"In the mortal world, there's still an apostle of Far Silence who hasn't been destroyed. She was the first Far Silence apostle who arrived in the mortal world and killed and replaced all other Star Elves of her era. She possesses peerless beauty and an enchanting body. She was created to please the opposite sex completely. That's the reason why she's able to rely on her sharp sense of smell to find the strongest hero on this planet, strengthen him, serve him, tempt him and eventually incite him to defect... Now, my dear, as long as you kill this final Far Silence apostle, this calamity can be resolved."
"Yes, there's no need to question it, darling. You're right. I'm your final enemy."
"I've always known my mission. However, Rayne, I can't do it. I can't bear to leave you homeless."
"So, darling, now, please do what you have to do."
"Eliminate the last remnant of Far Silence and end this war."
"Please don't feel sorry for me."
The God Consort was a married woman.
Furthermore, the Star Attendant Court had a rule that forbade the God Consort from betraying her God King.
That was unless the first God King died and the threat of Far Silence was still unresolved. As such, the God Consort might choose a second God King to serve given those forced circumstances.
Apart from that...
The God Consort should not have any improper thoughts towards men other than the God King.
Therefore, be it Rayne or the God Consort, they all needed an opportunity to indulge in their flirtatious ambiguity and advance their relationship.
And now, that accidental opportunity had already happened.
The chaste married woman had already been 'used' and 'tainted' by Rayne in a drunken mess.
In that case...
At that moment, Edaline saw that Rayne was silent and said leisurely, "However, Rayne, I have to say that your performance yesterday was really exciting... How could you confess so sincerely to a stranger you've only met a few times? Even after you're drunk, your acting skills are still so superb."
Edaline asked mockingly, "Man, you really have a thing for the wives of others. That's why you can't control yourself, right?"
Rayne did not say anything and lowered his head in silence. "..."
Edaline was stunned for a moment. "Erm... did I go overboard?"
"No, you're quite cute like this. It's just that I thought of something..."
Rayne forced a smile. He stood up and changed his clothes that reeked of alcohol. He took a shower, washed up and tidied himself.
"I'm going out for a while."
"Where to?"
Rayne smiled. "To meet my beloved wife of someone else."
