After the regent left in a huff, the elven Empress ignored Rayne's rejection and enjoyed her breakfast.
Finally, she wiped her lips elegantly before leaving the study in satisfaction.
After that, two days passed.
The second round of the sacred test against the Upper Moon Queen began.
Naturally, Rayne, who was under house arrest, could not go and watch the battle.
Thankfully, there was soone else accompanying him.
This day, the Great Teacher paid another visit to Rayne.
"Previously, you asked to pay attention to the teleportation within the capital. I've discovered sothing."
Rayne asked, "Did soone sneak into the capital?"
The Great Teacher replied, "Yes, yesterday, the geomantic compass sensed a slight spatial fluctuation."
Rayne was not surprised. "She's indeed here…"
The Great Teacher asked, "She?"
Rayne: "A powerful character."
The Great Teacher asked, "She's also your chess piece?"
Stunned, Rayne shook his head. "Chess piece? No, she's a dangerous fellow. Powerful and crazy, her actions are unpredictable. Once we're embroiled in her ga, my n might die at any mont."
Recalling the terrifying acts of that woman in the past, Rayne felt a chill run down his spine.
The woman nad Lynn was not a chess piece or friend of Rayne. In fact, she was not even his enemy.
She was more like a natural catastrophe.
Nobody could explain where or why it started... In any case, by the ti one snapped out of their stupor, she would have already destroyed and massacred everything around them before leaving leisurely with an innocent smile.
But... a chess piece?
Yes... Perhaps he could try for it.
Rayne smiled. "The person I'm referring to is called Lynn. If possible, help keep an eye out in the future."
"I understand."
The Great Teacher nodded and continued asking, "How's the arrangent for Alice's trials?"
"There's no problem for now."
Rayne replied, "Apart from Tragic Moon, I know the weaknesses of all the Moonlight Queens on the list. Although it's inevitable that there will be a few troubleso existences, I believe that with her talent, she should be able to resolve them easily."
Apart from the Tragic Moon Queen, of course.
In that case... how should they deal with the Tragic Moon Queen?
Initially, the Great Teacher wanted to ask that. However, when she saw the calmness in Rayne's eyes, she felt that her worries were unnecessary.
The Great Teacher said, "Alice is Leta's last hope. Please protect her."
Rayne smiled. "Of course, I also need her to maintain the relationship between our two countries. Our interests are the sa."
The Great Teacher nodded gently. "With her around, the relationship between Leta and Haines should change significantly in the future, right?"
After explaining everything, Rayne no longer had anything important to say.
He looked at the Great Teacher's face and suddenly realized sothing. "Speaking of which…"
The Great Teacher asked, "What's wrong?"
Rayne looked at the Great Teacher. "Elktela, you look better than the last ti I saw you."
"Is that so…"
The Great Teacher was silent for a mont before saying tenderly, "It's probably because of a certain soone. Beyond rely waiting for death, he infused newfound aning into my life...
With that said, the Great Teacher looked at Rayne and smiled gently.
This ti round, the Great Teacher expressed her feelings to Rayne very naturally.
Suddenly, Rayne realized.
Those once cold and dark eyes seed to have gained a new radiance today.
This was sothing that Rayne had never seen before in his previous 999 reincarnation cycles.
Elktela's ntal state had undergone an unprecedented change. She had beco optimistic and sincere. As she had said… beyond rely waiting for death, her life had taken on a new aning.
And everything...
Was all because of Rayne.
It was the variable, Rayne, that made her smile for the only ti in the thousand reincarnations.
Suddenly, Rayne froze for a mont as complicated emotions flashed through his mind. He felt emotional, surprised and even an urge to want to dote on her.
However…
The smile on the Great Teacher's face did not last for more than a few seconds. After recalling so terrible things, she turned negative again.
She sighed and smiled bitterly.
"However, although that's the case, I probably won't be able to live for long. Forget it… I don't have any regrets either."
The Great Teacher said indifferently, "Everything that happened has made understand that as long as you're around, I don't have to worry about anything concerning Alice anymore. If she can obtain the blessings of the Moonlight Queens on this list, she will definitely be able to protect Leta in the future."
The Great Teacher revealed a reassuring but desolate smile. "In that case, I can leave Leta to her without worry."
When Rayne heard that, he smiled as well.
"Isn't it too early for you to be relieved? Aren't you afraid that after you die, I'll control Alice and turn Leta into a vassal of Haines?"
The Great Teacher was a little helpless. "Although I know that this is a joke, when you're the one saying it… it's quite realistic."
"How do you know that this is a joke? Everything is possible, Elktela… Of course, that includes you."
Rayne held the Great Teacher's hand with a gentle gaze. "Don't have those pessimistic thoughts anymore. You won't die with around."
"Rayne…"
The Great Teacher was stunned.
This ti round, when she looked into Rayne's eyes, apart from his usual shocking charm, she seed to see sothing… different in them.
Her heart skipped a beat.
It was as though a ball of flas was burning in her maiden's heart…
The Great Teacher's voice was gentle. "Do you want to do sothing else?"
"I'm happy to oblige. However, wasn't the previous ti… a little too intense?"
"N-No…"
There was an unprecedented charm in the Great Teacher's voice.
"…You can be even rougher to ."
…
At the sacred test venue.
Under a series of targeted tactics that were customized for her, the Upper Moon Queen was finally exhausted and her soul was depleted. She sighed helplessly and handed over her imprint, returning to the tomb.
The second round of the sacred test was over.
Another powerful late queen was defeated by Alice's godly actions and the audience witnessed another great legend.
.
The Breaking Moon Queen let out a sorrowful cry of envy.
"Damn it… that woman left an imprint and left. Why didn't I do the sa as her back then?!"
After letting out a long sigh of despair, the Breaking Moon Queen surveyed her surroundings with her senses.
The Breaking Moon Queen asked, "By the way, is soone missing here?"
Alice replied, "You an to say… the Great Teacher?"
The Breaking Moon Queen said coldly, "That's right. That woman should be the strongest among this batch's teachers, right? She sure is arrogant. To think that she would dare to excuse herself from the new queen's sacred test, how dare she!"
However, Alice did not seem bothered and rely revealed a aningful smile.
"That's right... Sneakily doing sothing naughty behind the back of the Moonlight Queen, how dare she..."
