The Adonis family should not have come to an end like this.
It should not have fallen behind at this moment. It should be the witness to all of Leta's prosperity and destruction.
But now…
The regent still had a choice. He still had a chance.
Resurrect Sebastian, his son, and Leta... Let him be the true monarch!

The ley lines ritual began and magic was fully manipulated to activate the ley lines while communicating with the elves that hid beneath the ground.
The elemental ley lines were alive.
These elemental pipes that transported magic had lain dormant beneath the ground for thousands of years. After the long period of baptism, they were nourished by endless magic over time. Not only did they awaken their consciousness, they had even grown into existences equivalent to true gods.
However, even though their strength was enough for them to become gods…
Their thoughts were still innocent and pure like children.
The way to deal with them was no different from thousands of years ago. All the regent had to do was use a gentle tone and fake a smile at them as though he was coaxing children.
The regent made a request to the ley lines, hoping that he could use the blood of the noble he sacrificed to exchange for his son.
Before long...
The ley lines replied to the regent.
[Indeed, children should stay by their families' side…]
The ley lines had agreed to the regent's request.
[But please be careful…]
[Your child might be a bad child.]
"Even so, I'm still his only father. I love and trust my child deeply. Thank you for your help, supremacies."
The regent kowtowed respectfully to the elves of the ley lines.
The soul of the deceased Bishop Twain gradually fused with the ley lines. There, he would obtain an eternal life no one knew about.
As for Sebastian, in exchange, he was allowed to leave the ley lines and return to the mortal world.
Finally…
The regent met his son again.
The ley lines contributed their strength selflessly and reconstructed the body of a demigod for a man who had already abandoned his body with the remains left behind from back then.
A naked man walked out of the densely resplendent elemental light.
He was a handsome and fair slender man. He looked refined, easygoing and amiable.
It was the son of the regent, Sebastian.
"Father?"
Sebastian looked at his surroundings in a daze, not knowing what had happened.
His soul resided in the ley lines and he had no concept of time. From the time he fused with the ley lines ten years ago till now, everything felt like the blink of an eye for him.
Sebastian revealed a bitter smile. "Father, you've aged a lot…"
He was not displeased at all that his slumber was disturbed.
The smile on his face was sincere and gentle.
"What's wrong, Father? Why did you wake me up?"
"Sebastian…"
The regent felt ashamed. "I'm sorry for disturbing your plan…"
"No, it's fine, Father. Before I entered the ley lines, I had already expected that there would be a day when I would be awakened. After all, apart from the Great Teacher, I'm already the final demigod of Leta who had inherited the blood of the Moon Goddess... isn't that so?"
Sebastian revealed an expectant expression. "Therefore, Leta must be in danger right now, right? Has it finally reached the point where a Moonlight Queen is needed to turn the tide for them no matter what?"
"Something like that…"
The regent said helplessly, "Actually, right now, I hope that you can defeat the current Moonlight Queen. If you don't do that, the Adonis family will definitely be destroyed."
"…?"
Instantly, a hint of disappointment appeared in Sebastian's eyes.
However, before long, a kind smile returned to his face.
"Alright, Father. Before we take action, please tell me what trouble Leta encountered while I was asleep."
The regent nodded. Thereafter, the regent told Sebastian everything in detail.
In the past ten years, Leta had indeed encountered countless troubles.
For example, there was the diplomatic winter caused by the White Tower incident and the succession crisis of the Moonlight Queen caused by the destruction of the White Tower… However, all of that was in the past.
Right now, the regent only had one problem and needed his son to share the burden.
It was Leta's new Moonlight Queen, Alice Fremont.
After hearing everything, Sebastian nodded silently.
He already understood Leta's current situation.
A legendary new queen that was deeply popular and seemed to have a cheat was about to open up a brand new dynasty for Leta in the anticipation of everyone.
As for his father, he was afraid of being punished by the new queen and came to awaken him, hoping that he could help fight against that genius and snatch the throne from her hands.
Sebastian could not help but smile bitterly.
This was truly a dilemma.
Fortunately, he had a way to deal with it.
"Don't worry, Father. I can defeat Miss Alice."
Sebastian said confidently, "I've already seen through Miss Alice's weakness. Clearly, she doesn't know what Leta really needs."
"Alright!"
The regent was overjoyed. His son was indeed reliable!
For the longest time, Sebastian had always amazed the regent. Although his methods were despicable and often extremely cruel… Yes, Sebastian could always create miracles!
Right now, they were at the end of the line and had to resort to any means!
Therefore, he was willing to pay any price.
The regent believed that Sebastian would definitely be able to defeat Alice!
"Let's go home, Sebastian!"
The regent turned around and left with Sebastian. At that moment, he was filled with fighting spirit and laughed heroically. "Next up shall be the counterattack of our father and son duo!"
As for Sebastian, he followed behind his father silently.
His eyes were fixed on the sword at his father's waist…
"Speaking of which, son…"
The regent chuckled and asked, "How exactly do you intend to take down Alice? I'm afraid it will be a little difficult if you want to obtain better results than her in the sacred test. Also, it seems a little too late to try and win over the hearts of the people as well. So, what's your brilliant plan? Tell me."
"Yes, Father."
Sebastian revealed a smile.
"My plan is—"
Clang!
The sword was unsheathed!
Before the regent could react…
His sword had already pierced through his chest!
The regent glared at his son in shock. "Se... Bas..."
"Don't worry, Father. I'll make good use of your death."
Sebastian held his father's sword and pierced the latter's heart.
At that moment, the regent was completely dumbfounded.
He had indeed thought about what crazy things Sebastian would do and what tragic price Leta would have to pay.
All of those losses were acceptable for him.
However, he did not expect that...
That price… would be himself!
The first thing Sebastian did after his resurrection was to stab the regent to death!!!
However, Sebastian was not going to go against his father's request.
Of course, he would help his father defeat Alice.
Only, he first needed to make a necessary sacrifice…
Right now, Sebastian was looking at his father with a smile.
His gaze was so sincere and pure without any malice or guilt.
Of course, there was no need to even mention sorrow or pain.
It was as though…
He had only done something that was only natural.
"This is my way of defeating Miss Alice, Father."
The Adonis family should not have come to an end like this.
It should not have fallen behind at this moment. It should be the witness to all of Leta's prosperity and destruction.
But now…
The regent still had a choice. He still had a chance.
