Chapter 194: God Consort, You Don’t Want Our Matters to Be Known by the God King, Right?
Palace of Dawn.
The sky had already lit up for a long time and it was time for the God Consort to wake up. However, she lay on the bed listlessly and was distracted.
Last night, before the banquet ended, the God Consort returned to her room early to rest.
The God Consort’s bedroom was right next door to the God King. This was a symbol of the relationship between the Star Elves and the God King. However, in reality, the two of them had always minded their own business. Although they were only separated by a wall, it was as though they were thousands of miles apart.
That night, after enjoying the banquet, the God King returned to his bedroom and continued partying the entire night. He played with his concubines the entire night and the cries were extremely ear-piercing.
Usually, the commotion next door would not affect the God Consort’s sleep.
She just had to add a soundproof barrier to the room.
However, last night, the God Consort did not sleep the entire night because of another man.
Rayne Haines…
In the garden, when the God Consort was forcefully kissed by Rayne and her Starburst was pulled out, she was dumbfounded.
This was the first time someone had used a natural method to pull the Starburst out of her body.
For a Star Elf, that wonderful comfort was as though she had discovered a brand new world… All sorts of surprises and uneasiness made her feel like a young girl who had just tasted the forbidden fruit.
Therefore, the God Consort was stunned on the spot and panicked completely.
Rayne, who had temporarily regained consciousness with the enhancement of the Starburst power, fell silent as well.
The two of them looked at each other quietly, at a loss.
In the end, it was Edaline who broke the stalemate.
That Imperial Guard sister of Rayne appeared and took him away before reassuring the God Consort that everything that happened earlier on was blocked by a barrier and was not seen by anyone.
After knowing that, the God Consort heaved a sigh of relief.
As expected of the strongest demigod in the mortal world. Although Edaline did not attend the banquet, she had long noticed Rayne’s abnormality with her perception and made a move in time to prevent the situation from worsening.
Since what happened that night was not discovered by outsiders and Prince Rayne lost his composure after drinking, she should pretend that nothing had happened, right?
However…
Was that really possible?
The God Consort recalled her conversation with Rayne yesterday.
After drinking, Rayne lost his usual calmness and became incomparably emotional. In fact… he even cried for the God Consort.
“I didn’t know that you were… in so much pain.”
“You shouldn’t be… suffering like that…”
“I might have… fallen in love with you.
Those drunken words were so sincere and heartbreaking for Rayne.
Those messy words contained incomprehensible grief for the God Consort.
At the very least, the God Consort was certain of something.
His Highness Rayne was truly concerned about her.
Compared to the High Elves who regarded her as a prop, idol and symbol, he was even more concerned and worried about her…
That was the weak side of Rayne that would never be revealed under normal circumstances.
If not for the banquet that day, the God Consort would never have known that Rayne had such a sentimental side to him.
“Your Highness Rayne…”
The God Consort muttered that man’s name softly.
Speaking of which, she was truly ashamed. Theoretically, she was the wife of someone else. Yet, she might have actually fallen in love with Rayne at first sight.
However, due to her status, the God Consort had never dared to express her feelings.
The God Consort did not mind Rayne’s offense last night. She could understand Rayne’s drunken madness. In fact… she was secretly delighted.
Finally, someone could activate her Starburst.
It was not through the use of the Star Incineration ritual to forcefully refine the Starburst.
Just like her predecessors in the past, the Starburst in her body was ignited naturally through the contact of her body with a hero.
Furthermore, that person was someone the God Consort liked.
It was a strange feeling.
Or rather… It was very comfortable.
She could not help but want to experience it again, twice, or even more…
However, before long, the God Consort was jolted awake. She was surprised and terrified by the ridiculous thoughts in her mind.
“No… that’s wrong. Seriously, w-what was I thinking?!”
The Star Elves could only choose one God King in their lives.
That was an ironclad rule set by the Star Attendant Court.
It was not a restriction by the mortals towards the Star Elves. Instead, it was an unbreakable rule set by the previous seniors of the Star Elves for their descendants.
The God Consort did not feel that she was a person who followed the rules. However, she could indeed understand the good intentions of her seniors.
There were many positive aspects to the absolute loyalty of the Star Elves to the God King. However, the seniors did not consider one thing…
What if the God King chosen by the Star Elves wasn’t qualified at all?
Right then, a Star Attendant came to report.
“God Consort, someone wants to see you.”
The God Consort shook her head gently. “I’m not feeling well today…”
The Star Attendant was a little hesitant. After all, the person who wanted to pay a visit to the God Consort was an esteemed guest.
“However, God Consort, His Highness Rayne wants to see you.”
The God Consort: “!!!”
The God Consort was alarmed and panicked.
Rayne had come to look for her.
He must be here for what happened last night!
… What would he say to me? H-How should I answer?
The God Consort did not know how to face Rayne at all!THee sourc𝗲 of this content n/o/v/(𝒆l)bi((n))
In order to hide the panic in her heart, the God Consort said angrily, “I told you, I’m not feeling well today!”
“Yes!”
The Star Attendant answered immediately. Sensing the anger in her goddess’s words, she retreated quickly in fear.
The room fell silent again.
The God Consort sighed…
Unable to come up with a decision at all, she only had one last choice left.
It was time to go and meet her seniors.
…
There was an ancient altar beneath the Star Attendant Court in Dawn.
This was an altar specially prepared for the Star Elves.
There was only one function of the altar.
Summon the remnant will of the previous Star Elves.
A thousand years ago, the two Star Elves who assisted the High Elves in repelling Far Silence returned to the outer world after the latter was repelled.
However…
Before the Star Elves left, they left behind a backup plan. Through a special ritual, they could communicate with their juniors who were also Star Elves and answer their doubts to give them pointers.
And now, the God Consort needed their help.
As the ritual was activated, two indistinct souls appeared before the God Consort.
“Seniors…”
The God Consort explained her troubles with a heavy heart.
The God King she chose was extremely unqualified. She hoped that she could choose a new God King. Coincidentally, she met the candidate she liked yesterday.
However, the God Consort’s thoughts were rejected firmly by the two seniors.
“Child, don’t do anything stupid.”
The Star Elves were not ordinary living beings and did not have the morals of the mortal world. Naturally, they would not ask their descendants to maintain their chastity as women.
Therefore, the reason why they prohibited the God Consort from reselecting a God King was because the Star Elves had to prioritize the big picture. All their actions had to be premised on the victory of the entire war.
What were the benefits of choosing a new God King?
A stronger combat strength, a more outstanding leader and the God Consort’s own satisfaction.
However, what were the disadvantages?
All the High Elves would fantasize that they were that next “more outstanding person”.
The marriage system between the God King and the Star Elves was essentially to establish absolute authority in the scattered Heavenly Kingdoms and make everyone obey.
If there was a chance that such authority could be shaken, the harm caused would be immeasurable.
All the High Elves in the Heavenly Kingdoms would possess ulterior motives and it would be hard to unite them.
However, they would not be the only ones coveting the position of the God King.
Even the kings of the mortal world would covet this powerful power that could elevate mortals to demigods and that would bring even more trouble for the Heavenly Kingdoms.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Kingdoms had an extremely firm belief in the God Consort.
If there really came a day that the God Consort was taken away by a mortal hero from an Empire on the ground, all the Heavenly Kingdoms might wage war with the mortal world on the spot! They would fight to get the God Consort back with their lives!
There would be endless trouble in the future.
Furthermore…
The power of a Starburst weapon depended to a large extent on the relationship between the God King and the God Consort.
The more loving the God Consort and the God King were, the more loyal the God Consort was to the God King. Subconsciously, the God Consort would obey the God King’s control, causing the power of the Starburst weapon to increase.
Compared to the first God King whom the God Consort had spent a lot of time nurturing feelings with, the sudden appearance of a third party who had no feeling or tacit understanding with the God Consort would be completely unqualified.
“If they discover that you can change owners at will, you will no longer be their god but a treasure that anyone can obtain as long as they have luck and strength. At that time, there will only be endless disasters in the mortal world!”
The God Consort sighed. “Indeed…”
The God Consort mostly agreed with the views of her two seniors.
It was especially so towards the tragic outcome of the mortal world once the God Consort was taken away by someone else.
Finally, the God Consort made a decision.
For the sake of the big picture and to protect Rayne, the God Consort decided not to contact him anymore.
She would pretend to be enraged after being offended and sever ties with Rayne completely.
I’m sorry, Your Highness Rayne…
If my identity is clean and I’m all alone, I’ll definitely offer myself to you and be loyal to you until my death.
But now… I’ve already made an irreversible mistake.
I… can no longer be your power.
The God Consort sighed in disappointment, her heart ashen.
She left the underground secret chamber and prepared to return to the palace.
However, right then, a Star Attendant suddenly stopped the Divine Consort who was about to leave.
“God Consort, this is a letter from His Highness Rayne.”
“Letter?”
The God Consort received the letter and opened it after sending away the Star Attendant.
There was very little content in the letter.
There was only a single line of warning that made the God Consort smile bitterly.
“Your Highness the God Consort, you don’t want your husband to know about what happened yesterday either, right?”
