Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects! Chapter 57: Obadiahs Rebirth!

Chapter 57: Obadiah’s Rebirth!

Gold Siphon was extremely important for Rayne’s strategy.

It was not only because Gold Siphon was a relic of Original Sequence and could be used as an exclusive weapon for Constance. The damage output was shocking.

Furthermore, it was a trigger item for many key plots.

For example, Gold Village that Rayne was headed to next.

Now that Rayne managed to get his hands on Gold Siphon in advance by skipping steps, it was perfect. Rayne could make a move before the situation worsened and complete a move that he had never succeeded before!

Gold Village was extremely important to Rayne.

For this operation, Rayne was still traveling with Hela.

Although Hela had already expressed her loyalty to Rayne, Rayne knew very well that his strategy for Hela was not complete.

He had to let her fall even deeper into it such that she could not extricate herself… until she forgot about her sense of self and was willing to abandon the ironclad rules that were customized for the Imperial Guards, allowing her to present herself completely to Rayne at the end.

That could wait.

Right now, in order to fish in Gold Village, Rayne had to borrow Gold Siphon from Constance first.

When Rayne arrived at Constance’s residence, she came out to welcome him before he knocked.

Hela did not visit Constance with Rayne.

She stayed in her own manor. However, her perception could not help but extend to Constance’s house.

At that moment, Hela had mixed emotions.

All the demigods possessed perception that far surpassed the imagination of mortals.

Hence, Hela was extremely convinced about one thing.

The interaction between Rayne and her previously had long been witnessed by Constance.

Rayne’s love confession, embrace and care for Hela gave her unprecedented happiness…

However, Hela knew very well that Constance liked Rayne as well!

Not only did they like each other, the two of them were childhood sweethearts. If not for the interference of the Church… the two of them would have had children by now.

But now?

His Highness Rayne’s heart had wavered as he realized that he had fallen in love with Hela!

It was Hela who caused His Highness Rayne, whom Constance had always loved deeply, to fall in love with someone else.

Hela observed Constance’s expression guiltily.

However, Constance had a calm expression.

She was extremely calm.

Constance asked, “Is there anything, Your Highness?”

Rayne: “I want to borrow your sword.”

Constance: “You mean Rayne?”

Rayne: “You really gave it that name.”

Constance replied, “You were the one who told me to do as I pleased, Your Highness…”

Rayne: “Lend me the sword for the time being. I’ll get it some fuel.”

Constance: “Mmm…”

At the mention of Gold Siphon, Constance wanted to speak but stopped.

Rayne froze for a moment. “What happened?”

Constance: “Your Highness, why don’t you come and take a look yourself?”

Just like that, Constance led Rayne into her room.

Constance’s room was extremely plain. She resided in the dormitory of the Church’s clergymen.

There was a room, a hall and a kitchen. The furnishings in her house were extremely simple and could even be said to be poor.

Constance brought Rayne to the door of her bedroom.

Rayne discovered that the bedroom was sealed by Constance’s magic.

Rayne asked, “What’s inside?”

Constance: “Sword, and…”

“My master! My gorgeous master!! My great master!!!”

Suddenly, a shriek sounded from the bedroom. “Where are you?! Why are you locking me in this space?! If this is your wish, I’ll definitely execute it with all my might. However, great master! You can’t leave your sacred weapon here as well!”

That voice was…

Rayne’s expression changed.

“Obadiah?”

“That’s right,” Constance said tiredly. “When I woke up this morning, he suddenly appeared in my room.”

Rayne: “…”

How rare.

This was the first time Rayne had seen such a situation.

Rayne asked, “Is he dangerous?”

Constance said, “He has no killing power.”

Rayne said, “Let me see him then.”

Constance removed the seal.

The bedroom door opened slowly.

“Master!”

The next moment, a chibi ancient dragon with Gold Siphon in his mouth dashed out of the room like the wind and lunged into the embrace of Constance.

Thereafter, he bumped into a barrier erected by Constance and howled in pain.

As he shrieked, he did not forget to apologize to Constance with all his might. “I’m sorry, master! I’ve offended you! I should not have gotten carried away and tried to touch your noble body! Punish me, my master!”

Constance: “…”

Constance had a troubled expression.

Rayne observed the chibi version of the ancient dragon. Notwithstanding its mini body that had shrunk a thousand times and its contours that had clearly become rounder…

This fellow was indeed extremely similar to Obadiah.

Thereafter, Obadiah noticed Rayne as well and his expression changed drastically.

“Rayne Haines… it’s you, beast!”

“You still remember me?”

Obadiah grit his teeth. “You despicable ant! Olivia’s lackey! I’ll never forget the ugly and vicious face of a murderer like you… ah, but of course! Although I died later on, I was willing to be killed by my master. Don’t worry! Great master! I’ll execute all your orders with unconditional loyalty!”

After cursing Rayne, Obadiah gave Constance a good bootlicking.

Rayne was speechless.

“Master? You’re referring to her?”

Rayne patted Constance on the shoulder.

However, that action angered Obadiah. “Lowlife human, take your dirty hands away from my master! Do you think an ant like you is worthy of touching the sacred body of Original Sequence?!”

Rayne sneered. “Ha, bite me then.”

“Wait, what are you doing?! Don’t play with my master’s hair!”

“Hurry and stop! Don’t pinch my master’s ears!”

“Ahhhh! Do you know what you’re doing?! Don’t pinch my master’s butt!”

Obadiah cried as though he had lost his parents. He was heartbroken and almost fainted from crying.

Constance blushed. “Your Highness…”

Rayne smiled and retracted his hand, deep in thought.

Obadiah was still alive?

That surprised Rayne.

After all, Rayne had never encountered such a situation in all his previous reincarnation cycles.

However, Rayne quickly understood the crux of the issue.

It was Olivia.

In the previous reincarnations, Rayne regarded the evil god as an enemy and had never tried to work with the evil god. It was only natural and there was no way he could make Olivia agree to help Rayne remove Obadiah’s immortality.

In his previous battles, Rayne only had a chance to get rid of Obadiah under two circumstances.

The first was when Obadiah completed his skin molting and ascended to challenge Olivia.

Furthermore, it came with the condition that he was lucky enough to not get killed by Olivia.

The second was when Olivia died.

Both situations could have happened depending on the strategy of reincarnation at that time.

However, either way, it meant that Obadiah who was killed by Rayne had broken off all ties with Olivia.

But now, the situation was different.

Up till now, Obadiah’s rebellion against Olivia was merely premeditated but not actualized.

Because of that…

Rayne called out, “Olivia?”

His eyes rippled as he heard Olivia’s voice.

“I’m sorry, but no matter what, this guy is still my citizen.”

Olivia said helplessly.

Indeed.

It was Olivia who spared his life.

After all, ancient dragons were way too rare.

Every single citizen meant a lot to them.

If Obadiah had fallen out with Olivia and challenged her, she would definitely not show mercy.

But now, the Dragon Princess was still emotionally attached.

Olivia said, “I spared his life so that he can rely on [Rayne] to survive ignobly. Of course, it’s impossible for him to recover his original strength. His current strength is limited to a dog.”

So, that was the case…

That was not a problem.

Rayne did not have any deep feud with Obadiah. To be honest, Rayne did not care whether Obadiah lived or died as long as he obtained Gold Siphon and the skull of Compassion.

However… looking at the resurrected Obadiah, Rayne suddenly had an idea.

Rayne said, “Since you’ve already saved him, in order to prevent him from being killed again, how about restoring his immortality?”

“Oh?”

Olivia was stunned. “You’re speaking up for him?”

“Give him immortality and then lend him to me for a while.”

“Ha! Ha! Ha!”

Olivia understood Rayne’s intentions and smiled meaningfully.

Therefore…

A blessing passed through the Nether Realm and arrived in the mortal world, descending on Obadiah.

The wailing Obadiah shut up instantly.

He was shocked. “Was that… a blessing from Olivia? Even at this point, that evil dragon wants to protect me?!”

“Obadiah.”

Rayne squatted down and said gently, “Do you know that it was Olivia who saved you? She could not bear to massacre her people, so she wanted to give you another chance.” GEtt the l𝒂test 𝒏𝒐v𝒆ls at 𝒏.o/(v)/elbi𝒏(.)co𝒎

Obadiah’s voice was cold. “I thank her for her magnanimity, but my conviction will not change!”

“That’s fine,”

Rayne smiled. “Although you’ve lost your power now, you won’t die. Why don’t you use your own eyes in the future to confirm if Olivia betrayed the ancient dragons?”

“…”

Obadiah went silent.

Actually, the moment he awakened in the sacred weapon from Original Sequence, he had already guessed who saved him.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, Obadiah was swayed by Olivia’s actions.

The evil dragon that ascended into an evil god should have been violent and deranged. She should be controlled by its authority and turned into an embodiment of emotions, losing herself and turning into an existence of chaos.

However, how could the chaotic incarnation of a pervert understand forgiveness and compassion?

Right now, Obadiah might have to reflect on… what sort of a god was Olivia exactly.

“Alright…”

Dejected, Obadiah accepted the reality.

Rayne smiled. “That’s settled then. Right, Constance, can you lend me this dragon as a meat shield?”

Constance replied, “Yes.”

Rayne said, “Did you hear that? Your great master has given an order.”

“???”

Obadiah was dumbfounded and confused.

What?!
