Late at night, the desolate wilderness was silent.
A silver dragon was curled up and sleeping peacefully.
Alice leaned against the dragon and ward herself in silence.
The weather was truly cold...
Because they were close to the Desolate Tundra, the temperature in the wilderness was particularly cold.
Right now, Alice was traveling with the Great Teacher of White Light.
However, earlier on, the Great Teacher suddenly sensed sothing. After instructing Alice to stay where she was, the Great Teacher turned into a pool of flowing mithril and fused with the soil, disappearing without a trace.
Now that Alice was guarding the fire alone, the quiet atmosphere caused her to fall into a reverie…
Not long ago, the Great Teacher had already told Alice about her calling.
Alice could not believe it.
The reason why the Great Teacher wanted to take her away was because the Great Teacher wanted her to head to Leta and inherit the position of the new Moon Queen.
That was... the Empress of Leta!
Once the ascension ritual was completed, Alice would beco the supre ruler of Leta. She would lead Leta to fight against the quasigods and other hostile civilizations. Protecting the citizens and revitalizing the country…
Regarding these things, although Alice was extrely surprised, she did not resist.
After all…
Alice knew very well that if not for the fact that the White Light Courtyard had no other choice, why would they let a prostitute be their Empress?
In that case, if she was the only qualified candidate left in the entire Leta…
Alice could only bear the responsibility.
However, there was sothing that made Alice extrely worried.
If I beco the Empress of Leta… doesn't it an that I'll have to fight Mr. Rayne the next ti we et?
At that mont, clear liquid mithril surged out of the mud.
The figure of the Great Teacher gathered in the flowing mithril.
The Great Teacher had returned.
She looked extrely exhausted and her already haggard face was even paler, as though she could die at any mont.
"Let rest for a while first… if there's anything… we'll talk about it later…"
After saying that weakly, the Great Teacher staggered two more steps and fell to the ground, unconscious.
Thereafter, she did not wake up for an entire day and night.
Alice waited beside the Great Teacher anxiously.
However, the silver dragon that the Great Teacher rode on repeatedly expressed that it was not a problem.
[Don't worry, there's no way this woman could die in such a peaceful manner.]
Finally…
On the evening of the second day, the Great Teacher woke up slowly.
She still looked terrible. However, she had barely recovered so stamina after an entire day of forced dormancy.
Alright, they were good to go.
"Great Teacher,"
At that mont, Alice asked curiously, "Where exactly did you go? Why are you so exhausted?"
"I went to the Desolate Tundra and encountered Rayne Haines and his Imperial Guards fighting against the ancient dragon, Obadiah."
The Great Teacher did not hide anything and continued, "I wanted to stop him, but I lost and returned in sha."
Alice said, "Rayne Haines... Is that the sa Rayne?"
The Great Teacher replied, "That's right, he's the guest you received the other day."
Alice smiled. "Indeed, Mr. Rayne… is really a prince."
"How can you still smile about sothing like this?"
The Great Teacher's gaze turned stern.
"The matter between you and Prince of Haines will be a humiliation for you for the rest of your life. Furthermore, it can be used against you at any mont. How can you still smile in such a terrible situation?"
Alice wanted to argue. "But…"
The Great Teacher's tone was resolute. "There are no buts. You are not allowed to ntion that scandal in the future. You have to pretend that it never happened. Do you understand?"
"Mmm…"
Alice nodded helplessly.
Really...
The Great Teacher was helpless about this.
This child, Alice, was usually smart and sensible. However, she did not know her limits at all when Rayne Haines was ntioned.
After a few days of interaction…
The Great Teacher was rather satisfied with Alice.
Alice had no education since she was young and her background was extrely lowly.
However, she was much purer than the children who grew up in the filthy palace despite her formative years in the marketplace.
Perhaps letting such a person lead Leta would also be an opportunity for them to step out of the quagmire and break through the shackles.
However…
The only thing that displeased the Great Teacher was her relationship with the prince of the Haines Empire.
Elves had an unforgettable hatred towards humans.
Ever since the Main God of the humans, Order, massacred the elven gods and transford them, there was only an irreconcilable blood feud between the two races.
As for Alice, whose virginity was taken away by the Prince of Haines...
Her stance would plant a huge latent danger for her future political career.
If this matter had not happened, Alice should have been an Empress filled with potential.
But now, what other choice did they have?
The demigod teachers of White Light Courtyard had already searched the entire Leta.
In the end, it was determined that there were only two people in the entire Leta with qualified bloodlines.
One was Alice.
The other was the Great Teacher.
There was no other way…
After all, there was no way the Great Teacher could take over the position of the Moon Queen herself.
If they did not nurture Alice, were they going to let the Great Teacher, a half-dead humanoid God Regulating chanism, beco the new Moon Queen?
Right now, the only wish of the Great Teacher was for Alice to grow into a qualified Empress before she died.
She wanted Alice to beco a new beacon for Leta after her death.
However…
Alice could not understand the Great Teacher's good intentions.
The Great Teacher was concerned about the safety of Leta's society.
However, what Alice was troubled about now was how she should get along with Mr. Rayne after becoming the Empress of Leta…
In the future, Mr. Rayne would inherit the throne and beco the Emperor of Haines. If everything went smoothly, she might also beco the Empress of Leta…
An Empress and an Emperor—that sounded rather compatible.
Unfortunately, the countries they ruled were Leta and Haines.
At that mont, the Great Teacher suddenly thought of sothing.
"Right, Rayne Haines has sothing to tell you."
"Huh? For real?!" Alice was pleasantly surprised.
The Great Teacher replied indifferently, "He said… even though you've only parted for a few days, he's already starting to miss you. No matter what sort of a person you've beco, he's looking forward to reuniting with you."
When Alice heard that, she could not help but feel touched.
She covered her mouth and wanted to cry. "Mr. Rayne… did he really say that?!"
The Great Teacher rolled her eyes at Alice.
"That's right. From the beginning to the end, he was not surprised that you would succeed the position as the Empress of Leta. I'm afraid he was probably plotting from the beginning how to gain your fancy before we discovered you."
The Great Teacher's analysis was precise and logical.
However, Alice did not care at all.
The reason why Mr. Rayne was willing to cheat was because he valued !
After all, why didn't he cheat other girls?!
Furthermore, so what if he knew that I would beco the Empress in the future?
Mr. Rayne IS the future Emperor himself as well!
Alice did not listen to the rational analysis of the Great Teacher at all.
However, a re greeting from Mr. Rayne made her want to run and be his dog.
A bright glint flashed through Alice's eyes.
Mr. Rayne missed and wanted to see again…
Could Mr. Rayne have… fallen in love with as well?
No matter what sort of a person I would beco, he looks forward to reuniting with ...
Mr. Rayne… he…
Alice was extrely touched. She wanted nothing more than to head to the Desolate Tundra right now and reunite with her beloved Mr. Rayne—of course, that was impossible.
At that mont…
At the side, the gaze of the Great Teacher turned increasingly exasperated.
That was because she could hear Alice's thoughts.
To be fair, she could not understand why Alice had such a special liking for Rayne.
After interacting with Alice for the past few days and using her mind-reading ability flexibly, the Great Teacher had basically understood Alice's character.
This was an intelligent and rational child.
She could maintain her composure and make the right judgnt for most things.
In fact, the brilliant maneuvers that she displayed at tis could even stun the Great Teacher.
Apart from dealing with Rayne Haines…
The Great Teacher could not help but ask, "You only spent a single day with Rayne Haines, right?"
Alice replied, "Yes, that's the case."
"Then why do you like him so much?"
You don't understand him and you didn't have ti to interact with him. Why are you so in love with that man?
The Great Teacher could not understand.
"I…"
Alice was speechless.
It was not because she was confused about the answer to that question.
She was extrely shy to the bones...
Actually, compared illusory things in one's heart such as the feeling of love...
Alice's body had fallen in love with Rayne Haines.
Alice could not help but recall that night that burned her soul…
Various images appeared in Alice's mind, causing her to go limp...
Ah…
No, Alice could not say sothing like that.
She would definitely be despised by the Great Teacher for sure!
However, wait a minute…
Didn't the Great Teacher know how to read minds?!
Alice jolted awake!
In other words… my thoughts have already been…
Alice looked at the Great Teacher in horror.
A few blushes appeared on the cold face of the Great Teacher and even her breathing quickened…
The Great Teacher had indeed read Alice's mind.
Mind reading was one of the abilities obtained by the Great Teacher through the quasigod residue in her body. Although there were many restrictions, it was still extrely effective against Alice.
When mind reading was activated, not only could the Great Teacher read the other party's mind, she could also see the images in the other party's mind and even experience the sa sensations...
With this ability…
For a mont, the Great Teacher experienced a mysterious reaction that was not ant to be there.
This reminded the Great Teacher once more of the unprecedented throbbing in her heart when she faced off against Rayne Haines the other day.
"I was saying…"
The Great Teacher averted her gaze. She knew that there were so things she should not ask about as she had to maintain her dignity and prestige in front of the future Empress.
However…
The Great Teacher could not help but ask softly,
"Does Rayne Haines... really make you so... happy? I'm… rather curious…"
"… Eh?"
Alice was stunned.
The Great Teacher had eyes with a hint of lust and a shy expression.
Alice was greatly... shocked!
