"Kael, I missed you so much!"
Elanna lunged toward him, but at that mont, Kael stopped her.
"No, Elanna, not yet."
Kael gently said, "Not now, rember I have the Incubus blood, there's no one more selfish than soone like , I'm a presence whose possessiveness can be terrifying."
Kael prevented Elanna from moving forward.
It was then Elanna realized that the Kael standing before her seed sowhat strange.
It wasn't that his appearance had changed or his strength diminished, more like the essence of his body had altered.
Though this body before her was still powerful, it looked...
More like a counterfeit.
She wasn't a fool; after contemplating for a mont, she showed a surprised expression and said, "Is this Autonomous Puppet Technology?"
"Yes, technically it's a body ford by combining so of my cells with Magic Technology, a vessel to descend, so that's why I said, let's save our precious embrace for our true reunion."
Kael laughed softly.
Elanna didn't say much, just softly replied with an "Mm."
Rembering sothing, Elanna focused her gaze on Kael, "Kael, what's the situation on your side, has the Ether Spear's effect beco so severe you can't leave the Floating City?"
"It's not so easily problematic, within the Domain released by the Titan Floating City, I can move freely. I didn't co with my true self to et you mainly to avoid affecting you," Kael said.
"What kind of effect, is it serious?" Elanna, in front of Kael, was always straightforward.
Kael understood what she ant.
The red-haired knight girl had been by his side for so many years, how could he not understand her character?
[If the problem wasn't that severe, we would have t directly.]
After so many years, seeing the intense thoughts in the girl's eyes again still left him full of emotion.
"I want to see you!"
This intense longing radiated from the knight girl.
For a mont, Kael almost wanted to leave the Titan Floating City in his true body, to be by her side, to respond to her love and call.
But in the end, all he could do was gently place his hand on Elanna's head.
Gently, softly stroking her hair ends, he said quietly:
"The Ether Spear is a curse, not subject to my will. If it weren't for the special authority I possess, which confines the Ether Spear's influence to a relatively manageable area, this curse would spread along my network of connections."
"What would be the final result?" Elanna asked, looking at him fixedly.
"Rember that Prince of Lies?" Kael said softly.
"Yeah, he was the most troubleso and disgusting deity you've fought," Elanna, well-acquainted with Kael, imdiately guessed Kael's desire to murder the Prince of Lies was no spur-of-the-mont idea, after comparing the information a bit post-war.
It certainly was a trap laid over a decade, with the hope of altering the future landscape of the entire Federation and even the continent, a grandeur not achievable without such ticulous planning. How else could one attain the mortal slaying of a deity in modern mythology?
The truth is, within Mage Academia, there's a notion that it's not because the Mage profession gained the power to slay deities, but rather a mortal erged who successfully slew a deity.
Titles like King of Mages aren't just handed out; they're won through battle.
If the world wishes to birth a second King of Mages, one must walk the path once taken by the Helois Monarch—
Go and slay a god!
But in reality, even with the Floating City in existence, offering the mighty mages the leverage to negotiate with deities, it doesn't an new god-slaying mages will arise.
Killing a god is like a distant dream; since Kael, no one else in this vast world has successfully achieved the god-slaying feat.
This has left countless nations shocked, even terrified.
This unprecedented situation made many forces realize that slaying a god wasn't simply because the Mage profession had grown all powerful, nor was it because the Floating City obtained power to kill deities.
The above conditions rely endow earthly forces with a basis for negotiation with deities, not granting the power to kill them.
At least over the years, nurous mages vying for the King of Mages' title attempted to strike those great beings, and the results, at best, left them fleeing, at worst, falling on the spot.
All forces have awoken now, realizing that with the Floating City, having the capital to negotiate with deities is the greatest fortune.
The notion of slaying gods...
Co on, what have the deities done to provoke you? Did they ss with your little sister or beco the next-door neighbor? Is there a ntal issue with you folks constantly thinking about slaying gods?
