Chapter 191.1: Caring for the Abused God Consort (1)

The God King returned victorious and brought the Starburst Spear back to the Star Attendant Court. As for the God Consort who was panting in pain on the sacrificial altar, she was finally released.

The weak God Consort arrived at the wheat field again.

In the past, she liked to look down at the sea of clouds from the wheat field. However, right now, she was not in the mood at all.

Pain…

The God Consort sat there with a pale and expressionless face.

She was the only one who knew how much pain she would feel each time a Starburst weapon was forcefully refined through that ritual.

It was as though someone had drained her blood, turning her into a desiccated corpse that could neither live nor die as she struggled miserably on the ground.

After so many years, the God Consort was more or less used to it.

Ever since she signed a contract with the God King, the God Consort would feel the same pain every time he used a Starburst weapon. Ten years had passed and the heart-wrenching pain was still tormenting her. It did not weaken or strengthen…

That was what the God Consort used to comfort herself.

Usually, after being used, the God Consort would choose to lock herself in her room to rest. However, this time round… The God Consort could not help but activate her cosmic magic and spent a lot of energy to arrive at the edge of the Heavenly Kingdom.

In front of… the wheat field that she was familiar with.

She was looking forward to that handsome figure meeting her coincidentally and saying a few words to her.

If only… he could care about her a little more.

However…ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Could there be such a coincidence?

The God Consort sighed.

However, suddenly, she seemed to have sensed something. Immediately after, the God Consort turned her head hurriedly and… saw the Prince of Haines walking towards her.

Rayne was really here!

Instantly, the God Consort felt a strange sense of bliss.

However, unlike the God Consort who was in a much better mood, when Rayne arrived in front of the God Consort as usual, he was shocked by her currently pale face.

Rayne sized up the God Consort in shock.

The noble and aloof God Consort of the past was now in an unprecedented state of weakness. Her face was pale and her arms were trembling with a lifeless gaze. It was as though she was a delicate flower that had just been ravaged by a storm and was so dilapidated that it was almost withered and heartbreaking.

Rayne had a complicated gaze. After a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, what are you…"

"Don't worry about it…"

The God Consort smiled weakly. "Every time he extracts a spear, I'll become like this… I'm already used to it."

"Eh… Is that so?"

Rayne did not seem to be able to accept that answer, but he did not know how to refute it either. Therefore, he sat beside the God Consort helplessly.

Rayne said, "I heard that the God King personally led an expedition against Caldera today."

"Well, yes…"

The God Consort looked at the sea of clouds in the distance. "Today, he destroyed Caldera with that spear. I'm very regretful. Caldera was once one of the richest Heavenly Kingdoms. However, now that it's destroyed, the High Elves have lost another power that could have been used to fight against Far Silence."

The God Consort said helplessly, "However, there's nothing we can do about it. Perhaps it's precisely because Caldera was too affluent that the tragedy happened… Your Highness Rayne, are mortal countries often corrupted by the Nether Realm corruption as well?"

Rayne shook his head. "Corruption is common, but it's rare for it to be so serious that the country will collapse. In my opinion, the prosperity of the locals is only one of the factors in Caldera's destruction. Your Highness, there are many countries in the mortal world with prosperity and happiness. However, not all countries will submit to the Nether Realm. In the end, it's because of the leader's negligence."

Exactly...

The God Consort nodded gently. "The corruption of the Nether Realm is a consensual deal between mortals and fiends. If the High Elves of the Heavenly Kingdoms can't even resist the temptation of the Nether Realm, how can they become the frontline against that Evil Star…"

Unfortunately, the God Consort could not see any hope for this.

She looked at Rayne.

Rayne looked a little conflicted today and was no longer as calm as before. The God Consort asked with a smile, "Your Highness, is there something on your mind?"

"No, I just can't accept it when I see you like this…"

Rayne sighed. "Your Highness, I've recently heard some things in the Heavenly Kingdom that surprised me… When the God King summoned the Starburst weapon, the Starburst phenomenon was activated through a ritual?"

God Consort: "Yes, that's right."

Rayne said, "However, a true chosen hero should be able to trigger a Starburst as long as he touches the body of a Star Elf, right?"

"Yes… I know."

The God Consort said, "However, he's still the God King of the Heavenly Kingdom."

When Rayne heard that, he nodded in relief. "Is that so? In other words, you can still smell the scent of a hero from the God King, right?"

The God Consort was stunned. "Huh?"

Rayne was stunned as well. "What's wrong?"

The God Consort asked in confusion, "Smell a... scent? What does that mean?"

Rayne was a little surprised, as though he could not believe that the God Consort would ask such a question. He explained, "That's the method of the Star Elves to identify heroes. Star Elves can use their scent of smell to find the most efficient candidates to entrust the Starburst to. Haven't you smelled a strange fragrance from the God King?"

The God Consort fell silent.

There was no special smell on the God King.

On the other hand, every time she interacted with Rayne, the alluring fragrance on him would always make the God Consort unable to control herself and almost fall head over heels for him.

The God Consort said truthfully, "I've never smelled the scent of a hero on him before. None of the nobles in the Heavenly Kingdom can let me sell that scent..."

The God Consort smiled bitterly. "I always thought that my nose was broken."

With that said, the God Consort stole a glance at Rayne.

Suddenly, the God Consort had a ridiculous thought.

If the strange fragrance on Rayne's body was caused by her Star Elf perception of a hero... Did that not mean that Rayne was the chosen one worthy of her entrusting the Starburst with?

If Rayne was the one, would he be able to pull out the Starburst weapon with ease just by touching her body without the need for a ritual?

However, before long, the God Consort dispelled that ridiculous thought.

The Star Attendant Court's rule—Star Elves could only choose one God King in their lives.
