The God King did not understand why his beloved consort would ask such a question. He replied truthfully, "The kings of the two countries, of course. Ferdinand and Humphrey are both trustworthy good kings. They knelt in front of me and swore to me that with this food, these two Heavenly Kingdoms will be able to resolve the crisis and return to the right track within a month. Don't worry!"
Fufu…
The God Consort sneered.
However, in reality, many of the upper echelons had already received the news. On the surface, the two "trustworthy" good kings had agreed to the God King's request. However, behind his back, they had changed their rations into gold and silver and purchased a large number of antiques from the mortal world.
The two Heavenly Kingdoms were still filled with starved people.
However, no one told the God King about this.
Of course, it was useless even if they told the God King.
This boorish fellow would only take out his Starburst Spear in anger and cause a ruckus in the two countries. Notwithstanding the issue of whether that would even resolve the problems, the God Consort would definitely be tortured to death once more…
The God Consort sighed weakly again.
She did not know why conversing with the God King was always so exhausting.
It was completely different from when she was with Rayne…
"I'll follow up on the matter of Emerald and Knull in your name. Do you have any objections?"
"Alright, I'll leave it to you!"
The God King nodded in agreement without thinking. He kissed the two concubines in his arms fiercely. "Let's go, babies. Let's go to the pool to train our bodies! Get ready. There's a barbecue party waiting for us tonight! My beloved consort, don't forget to participate as well!"
"Got it…"
The God Consort watched as the God King left before closing her eyes in exhaustion.
Ah...
She was already starting to miss Rayne.
…
If she wanted to meet Rayne, the God Consort did not have to take the risk and leave the palace in public.
After all, Rayne had his Imperial Guard sister by his side.
Therefore, the God Consort merely called out softly in her room and a teleportation gate opened in front of her immediately.
The God Consort went to her door and instructed the Star Attendants outside not to disturb her once more before entering the dimensional rift.
On the other end of the rift.
It was Rayne's residence in Dawn.
Here, the God Consort finally saw the man she had been longing for the entire night.
Rayne Haines.
At that moment, Rayne was standing in front of the God Consort and greeting her with a smile.
Rayne looked very good today. After all, there was a powerful demigod by his side. The alcoholism last night did not affect him much.
After waking up, he looked as calm and elegant as ever.
He was really… so handsome.
Also, his kissing skills were very enchanting.
The God Consort looked at Rayne's lips and could not help but blush when she recalled the short but intense physical contact last night.
No!
Stop thinking about those things!
There was a problem that the God Consort had to know.
What happened last night was taboo and a mistake. There would definitely not be a next time!
At that thought, the God Consort could not help but feel disappointed…
Rayne smiled and pointed at the sofa at the side. "Sit down and talk, Your Highness the God Consort."
The God Consort nodded silently with a conflicted expression.
Under such circumstances, the two of them did not exchange any unnecessary pleasantries. After sitting down, they got straight to the point.
Rayne seemed to be in a good mood. He said with a smile, "What happened yesterday really surprised me. If my sister is right, I must have caused a Starburst phenomenon with you last night when I was drunk and even refined a Starburst weapon, right?"
The God Consort wanted to say something but hesitated. She nodded gently. "Yes, Your Highness Rayne…"
Rayne was even happier. "Doesn't that mean that I can replace the God King and use the Starburst weapon in the future? The Star Attendant Court's Star Incineration ritual is very harmful to you. However, there shouldn't be any side effects if the Starburst is withdrawn naturally, right?"
Rayne was right.
The Star Incineration ritual would bring about immense pain for the God Consort and cause her to weaken day by day.
However, it was the exact opposite for the God Consort to ignite the Starburst through physical contact. That would cause her… to feel a wonderful joy from her body to her soul.
But even so…
The God Consort looked at the excited Rayne and felt incomparably conflicted.
In the end, she decided to abide by the warnings of her seniors and draw a line with Rayne.
This… was also for the sake of His Highness Rayne.
If the Starburst was in Rayne's hands, all the Heavenly Kingdoms would fall into complete chaos. By the time Far Silence attacks, all living beings would definitely die.
If the Starburst was in the hands of the God King, although the God Consort would not feel good, at the very least, the battle line of the Heavenly Kingdoms could still be maintained and there was still a chance of winning the war.
Rayne was a true hero and a wise man worthy of respect.
Compared to romantic relationships, the God Consort knew that Rayne was more concerned about the safety of the entire mortal world.
Since that was the case…
Between the God King and Rayne, it was clear who the God Consort should choose.
She did not want to make things difficult for Rayne.
Therefore, she had to take the initiative to lay her cards on the table.
The God Consort steeled her heart and suddenly said, "Your Highness Rayne, there's something I hope you can understand."
Rayne was stunned for a moment. "Please speak."
The God Consort's expression turned serious. "Your Highness Rayne, my husband is Sommerfeld. Only he is qualified to use the Starburst in my body. Please don't look so happy. Don't you know how much of a mistake you made last night? You've blasphemed the Star Elf, the God Consort of Dawn!"
The God Consort said sternly, "I've already shown you the greatest mercy by not reporting your offense to the Star Attendant Court or my husband. Please don't push your luck! Please stop offending me immediately as well!"
Rayne was stunned… as though he could not believe the God Consort's words.
"You mean to say that you intend to pretend that nothing happened yesterday?"
The God Consort nodded gently. "…Yes."
Rayne smiled. "That's not good, right?"
The God Consort asked, "What do you mean?"
Rayne said seriously, "God Consort, I like you so much. As the prince of a country, I risked my life to touch you and finally succeeded in pulling out the Starburst. I thought that I had obtained your recognition and was happy for the entire night. Yet, you're telling me now that you're going to pretend that nothing happened?"
The God Consort pretended to look hostile.
"What do you want then? Are you going to snatch me away from my husband and monopolize the power of the Starburst?"
The God King did not understand why his beloved consort would ask such a question. He replied truthfully, "The kings of the two countries, of course. Ferdinand and Humphrey are both trustworthy good kings. They knelt in front of me and swore to me that with this food, these two Heavenly Kingdoms will be able to resolve the crisis and return to the right track within a month. Don't worry!"
