Chapter 226: We'll Talk In the Future, Celebration Banquet



Chapter 226: We'll Talk In the Future, Celebration Banquet

On the third day after the war ended, the High Elves of the Heavenly Kingdoms held a grand celebratory banquet in the ruins.

The threat of the Evil Star had been removed.

Next, they would welcome another thousand years of peace.

In the palace of Dawn, an unprecedentedly luxurious banquet began.

The attendants activated the God King's dormant warehouse that had been sealed for many years and took out the top-notch ingredients that he had painstakingly collected for more than ten years. Coupled with the most outstanding chefs in the Heavenly Kingdoms, it was perhaps the most luxurious banquet in the entire mortal world.

The God King had meticulously prepared for this celebratory banquet for many years.

As someone who loved grand occasions, there was naturally no way he would forget about this day.

This was the most important day of their generation.

The High Elves of the Heavenly Kingdoms did not let down the heroic spirits of their ancestors. Once again, they protected their beautiful homeland as well as the homeland on the surface ground that they had not seen for a long time.

The God King had long expected this. He did not know if he would still be alive after the war.

Therefore, this banquet would be dedicated to all the victors who had withstood the test of the war.

The dilapidated palace, collapsed halls, unrecognizable garden and riddled dome.

The entire palace no longer had its usual grandeur. It was merely a resplendent ruin.

However, that did not dispel the enthusiasm of the High Elves at all.

In the open-air palace, everyone sang and danced to their hearts' content.

Not only were the recipes extravagant, even the lineup of guests could be said to be grand for this banquet.

The strongest demigods of the mortal world were gathered here.

Apart from the Great Teacher who returned to Leta to continue working overtime right after the team fight

There was Edaline, Histia, Alice and an unknown white-haired Empress.

There were a total of four top demigods.

There was also the great hero who led the High Elves to victoryRayne Haines.

In a corner of the banquet, Histia tasted the fine wine of the Heavenly Kingdoms with a satisfied expression.

Beside her, Edaline was eating passionately.

While eating, Edaline could not help but recall the scene of Histia mastering the advanced usage of Spatial Distortion like Rayne in the previous battle, tearing the cosmic void into holes like a rag.

That scene

Even though Edaline had seen it with Rayne a few times, she was still shocked.

Rayne and Histia, these two big shots, were existences that she and many other demigods who stood at the peak of the mortal world could never surpass.

Edaline raised her head and looked at her elder sister. "Have you become stronger again?"

Histia nodded with a smile. However, there was no joy in her voice.

"It's almost 97%."

Through a test, it was shown that the purity of her bloodline was still rising steadily.

An increase in strength might be a good thing.

However, when she saw that the purity of her bloodline was approaching 100%, she could not help but start to worry

What would happen to her body when the blood flowing in her body no longer had any impurities?

However, on this happy day, she did not wish to talk about such unhappy matters.

Histia handed her wine glass to her sister and asked with a smile, "Have a taste? God King Dawn has extraordinary taste. It's rare to encounter such fine wine usually."

"There's no need. I can't tell between good or bad."

"It doesn't cost anything anyway."

"Oh, that's true."

Edaline received Histia's cup and downed it in one gulp.

Yes, indeed, she could not tell the difference.

At that moment, Histia looked at the prince not far away.

As the hero who led the High Elves to win the war, Rayne received the highest courtesy from the High Elves.

Many High Elf Kings abandoned their local banquets and specially rushed to Dawn to see this wise commander again.

Beside Rayne, the God Consort of the Heavenly Kingdoms accompanied him obediently.

Histia looked at Rayne in a daze.

As the purity of Histia's bloodline increased continuously, she obtained even more divinity authority. With higher authority in this world, she learned even more ultimate techniques that she did not even dare to think about in the past.

Right now, she could even grasp the profundities of manipulating space.

However, to her surprise

There was actually someone in the mortal world who was at the same level as her.

Edaline smiled. "Are you surprised that Rayne is so formidable after obtaining the Starburst weapon of the Heavenly Kingdoms?"

"That's right"

Histia stared at Rayne and her voice suddenly turned cold and murderous without any emotions that belonged to living beings.

Histia said coldly, "Indeed, I find him incomparably eye-catching."

Edaline: "Huh?"

Histia asked, "Hmm?"

Edaline asked in disbelief, "What did you just say?"

Histia was confused. "I didn't say anything."

She merely... went into a momentary daze earlier on.

Histia smiled and looked at her prince, who was also the man she was going to swear fealty to for the rest of her life.

"Although the prince has a licentious private life, I know that he's actually very hardworking and outstanding in his studies. I quite like him Ah, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have spoken about the future Emperor in such a tone, right?"

Histia studied Rayne's face. "Speaking of which, did you notice that he seems to have become much more handsome? Even I'm mesmerized by him."

"Histia, you're the only one who hasn't discovered this."

"Ah, is that so? Hahaha"

On the other side of the banquet, the white-haired Empress drank wine silently. Her powerful aura scared away everyone who wanted to approach her.

At that moment, the cracks on Empress Thea's body were almost visible to the naked eye. She was like a fragile puppet that could collapse and die at any moment.

At that moment, the Empress of another Empire walked to the lonely Empress with two glasses of wine.

"Miss Thea."

Alice smiled. "His Highness Rayne has he already told you about me?"

Empress Thea turned her head and nodded calmly. "Yes, he did"

Alice asked, "So, can we talk now?"

Empress Thea's tone was much gentler than the last time they met. "Please take a seat"

After Alice sat down, Empress Thea asked, "What do you want to talk about?"

Alice said, "The first time we met, you seemed like you hated me."

Empress Thea: "That's right"

Alice asked, "Why?"

When Empress Thea heard that, she revealed a look of vicissitudes. "Why...? Because in my world, your subordinate poisoned Rayne to death."

Alice was shocked. "Huh?!"

Empress Thea said indifferently, "That's not surprising. Given the relationship between Leta and Haines, it's not surprising that one of you would do such a thing."

Alice smiled bitterly. "That's true"

Alice asked again, "What about me? How did the me of that world react to that?"

Empress Thea: "You stopped it but failed."

Alice: ""

Empress Thea asked, "What's wrong?"

Alice smiled shyly. "Miss Thea you're actually lying to me, right?"

Empress Thea: ""

Alice asked, "Are you unwilling to tell me the truth because you're afraid that this will ruin my relationship with His Highness Rayne"

Alice revealed a bitter smile. "If an assassination really happened, the truth of the matter must be that I condoned it. In fact, I must have been the one who ordered the assassination, right? Otherwise, with the perception of a demigod, it's impossible for me not to notice the abnormality of my subordinates."

Empress Thea: "I don't know. After I went to Leta, I killed all of you."

Alice said, "Indeed that is the normal relationship between Haines and Leta."

Empress Thea: "That's right"

Alice knew something very well. "If not for the fact that I spent that night with His Highness Rayne that day, I would definitely have become His Highness Rayne's enemy in the future."

"In other worlds, His Highness Rayne and I have probably only been mortal enemies who kill each other and hate each other to the core."

Empress Thea was silent for a moment. "Probably"

Alice smiled. "What a cruel truth"

Empress Thea said, "In that case, now that you have these guesses, do you have any new thoughts about your relationship with Rayne?"

"Yes, I do!"

Alice said affectionately, "Amongst so many possibilities, this might be the only world where I can be in love with Rayne I'm truly blessed to be so lucky!"

Empress Thea asked, "Do you really like Rayne that much?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Alice nodded heavily. "Who wouldn't like a perfect man like His Highness Rayne? He's smart, handsome, considerate and intellectual. Furthermore he's super awesome when it comes to doing... that."

At the end of her sentence, Alice blushed.

Empress Thea looked at Alice with conflicted emotions. In the end, she smiled bitterly.

"Rayne gained his capabilities by training with me. To think that you would end up taking advantage of it."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing."

At that moment, Alice already had a faint guess in her heart. She revealed a bright smile.

"In any case, no matter what, thank you, Miss Thea! His Highness Rayne is truly an amazing man!"

Empress Thea had a calm expression. "You're welcome. By the way, why don't we go out and train as well?"

"Erm, cough, cough, cough, cough"

Alice looked around awkwardly.

Thereafter

She saw Rayne, who had shaken off the visitors who came out of admiration and was whispering to the God Consort.

The God Consort said, "When you were chatting with the guests, Your Highness, you kept emphasizing the contribution of the God King."

Rayne said, "That's right. After all, he's the hero who saved the Heavenly Kingdoms."

The God Consort asked, "Darling, what about you?"

Rayne smiled. "What contribution have I made? Kill a passerby who was no longer a threat to the mortal world? If not for those two mechagods, I would have become an eternal sinner who destroyed the mortal world."

When the God Consort heard that, she smiled gently. "Furthermore, you'd be an eternal sinner because of a single woman."

Rayne's achievements of shattering the Evil Star, Far Silence, and burying the split souls of Star Goddess Tensybill seemed great.

However

That had nothing to do with the High Elves.

When the God King destroyed all the Far Silences in the mortal world through his personal sacrifice, the war was already over for the High Elves.

The person who saved the Heavenly Kingdoms was the God King.

As for Rayne the person he saved was right beside him.

The God Consort held Rayne's arm gently and asked gently, "Therefore, right now, I'm the only one who can reward the hero that belongs to me, right?"

The God Consort said softly, "Your Highness, you can't sleep today, alright?"

Rayne said, "I don't expect to sleep tonight. After all, look"

With that said, Rayne looked at Thea and Alice at the other end of the banquet.

The two Empresses waved at him and the God Consort with flirtatious smiles that did not match their statuses.

"The small church I live in was not damaged much in the war. Do you guys want to admire the moon together... tonight?"

After walking to the two Empresses, the God Consort immediately extended an invitation to them.

Empress Thea nodded gently in a composed manner.

Alice revealed a charming smile filled with anticipation.

"Ah, right. Tonight is such a rare occasion. Everyone, if you don't mind, can you let me use some of the medicine given to me by my goddess?"

As Alice spoke, she slowly took out her precious bottle of medicine.

Alice first looked at Empress Thea. "Your Majesty Thea, do you want some? It's good for strengthening your body ~"

Empress Thea could tell what it was at a glance and could not help but feel shocked and shy at the same time. However, when she looked at Rayne, she made a decision and nodded silently.

Thereafter, a drop of medicine bestowed by the goddess dripped into Empress Thea's wine.

Under the supervision of Alice's expectant gaze, Empress Thea blushed and drank the wine in one gulp.

Then, it was the God Consort's turn.

The God Consort did not stand on ceremony. She looked into Rayne's eyes affectionately, as though she was pandering to him, and drank the spiked wine bit by bit.

Finally, it was Alice's turn. She drank the spiked wine and kissed Rayne, passing him half a mouthful of wine in that manner.

After drinking the wine, Rayne felt the medicine take effect instantly.

He knew

For him, today's banquet was already over.

He was drunk

Therefore, Rayne left the banquet with the help of the three beauties.

Just as he was about to leave, he raised his wine glass and toasted the empty throne.

"Brother Sommerfeld"

"You're the true hero"
