Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Today, her daughters had dressed up meticulously and wore the most expensive dresses in the wardrobe. They were gorgeous and charming.

It seemed like they were heading out.

And now, Daphne's two daughters held her hands warmly.

"Mother, let's go out for a walk!"

Daphne frowned. She was puzzled by her daughters' abnormal actions. "What… are the two of you planning?"

"Nothing?"

The sisters revealed innocent smiles.

"We just want to bring you to meet our boyfriend, mother!"

Well...

Her daughters wanted her to meet their boyfriend... That did not sound problematic.

Although... it was true that the timing right now was not the best.

Oh well...

She might as well see which brave soul it was who would dare to be related with their family at this juncture.

Daphne nodded helplessly.

However, wait a minute...

Suddenly, she noticed something.

"Your boyfriend…?"

Daphne had a doubtful look on her face. "The two of you... have the same boyfriend?"

The two daughters revealed bright smiles as though they were extremely proud. "Yes!"

Instantly, Daphne was shocked.

It was true that in the mortal world, there had never been a tradition of monogamy nor was it a mandatory rule.

It was not uncommon for men to have multiple wives and concubines in Leta. Similarly, there were countless women with multiple husbands at home.

However...

The nature of such relationships basically determined that the gender with the larger number was destined to have a lesser status in the family!

Daphne found it incredulous.

Who would dare to toy with the two daughters of the regent's family and make them his harem?!

Daphne said coldly, "Alright, let's go."

The elven sisters hurriedly stopped their mother who was about to rush out of the house and said with a smile, "We can't set off yet, Mother. We have to help you dress up."

Dress up?

Daphne looked at herself in the dressing mirror.

Although she was already someone's wife, Daphne took care to maintain herself meticulously over the years and she was blessed with noble blood flowing through her body as well.

Right now, she was still in her prime and had stunning looks, exuding a charm unique to mature women.

Just like her two daughters, she was also a famous beauty in the palace circle.

Even so, her two daughters still insisted on tidying up their mother's appearance and help her put on her most beautiful front.

"So sorry, Mother dear~"

The sisters smiled foolishly. "That's because our darling is a very picky man~"

"…"

Daphne did not say anything, but her disgust towards the lecher she had never met increased yet again.

Just like that, after her two daughters dressed her up to be even more beautiful than the day she got married, they finally set off.

The three of them attracted countless stunned gazes on the streets.

The daughters were in a good mood, but the mother was plagued by all sorts of troubles and had a dark expression.

Finally, when the sisters brought their mother into the restaurant and she met the scumbag who had ruined her daughters...

Daphne froze.

The beautiful wife stood on the spot and her heart that had been silent for a long time began to race!

It was a beautiful young man…

He had a tall and straight figure, beautiful golden hair and a pair of… melancholic yet charming eyes that seemed to possess magic.

The young man who was waiting for her in the restaurant immediately made Daphne forget her age and fall for him instantly.

The series of reprimands and questions that the beautiful wife had prepared in her heart were completely forgotten by her.

At that moment, the woman revealed a shy expression like a young girl. Under the recommendation of her two daughters, she revealed a shy smile to her daughters' boyfriend.

"H-Hello…"

…

A new day had passed.

It was time for dinner again.

The regent, who had been in a daze in the study for the entire day, trudged to the dining room.

For the entire day.

He was still thinking about Sebastian.

There was no other way.

In this situation that made him feel as though his heart was dead, the only person that could stir his heartstrings was that crazy son of his.

Everyone said that Sebastian was a lunatic.

Even the regent himself did not deny that.

Sebastian was great. As a man, he had done an unprecedented feat and obtained the power of the goddess, becoming a male demigod.

At the same time, he cursed the Empress of Haines to death, casting an indelible shadow over the crystal throne of Haines.

From that perspective, Sebastian seemed to be an extremely great and promising genius.

However, when everyone was evaluating Sebastian's achievements, there was a question that had to be asked.

What was the price for everything?

In order to obtain the power of the goddess, Sebastian bought people from the black market wantonly and conducted human experiments crazily. After causing countless deaths, he finally succeeded in using the Great Teacher's humanoid God Regulating Mechanism modification technique on himself.

Thereafter, he blasphemed the statue of the goddess and stole a portion of it, sealing it in his body as fuel for the God Regulating Mechanism. That crime was even more unforgivable.

Finally, he cursed the Empress of Haines to death.

In order to complete the curse, or rather, to create a smokescreen for the mastermind, he dragged a third of the civilization of the mortal world into the water. Not only did it cause an unprecedented massacre by the Imperial Guards, but after that, the relationship between Leta and the various alliances fell to a freezing point!

As for Leta itself, it paid a tragic price as well.

He knew very well the price he would have to pay for doing so.

However, he did not care.

Therefore, most of the time, the regent could not help but think.

Was Sebastian's so-called talent because he was truly gifted or was it purely because he had no bottom line and was crazy enough?

The regent admired his son very much. Even though he was crazy and ruthless, the regent was still proud of the glory he had obtained.

However, there was another reason why the regent did not dare to release Sebastian rashly.

The reason why he felt such immense pressure about whether or not he should awaken Sebastian was simple.

The reason why Sebastian could ascend to a demigod was because he stole the humanoid God Regulating Mechanism technology of the Great Teacher.

However, he did not devour the quasigods as fuel.

Instead, he chose a more convenient, taboo and crazy method—he used the statue of Goddess Compassion left behind in the mortal world and put it into his inner furnace.

With that, his power would not be limited to the stage of the quasigods.

He became a part of the goddess and became a true demigod, the most respected mithril-type demigod in Leta.

Therefore, in order to awaken him, the regent would have to sacrifice the supreme sacred item of the Leta Sanctum once again—the statue of the goddess.

There was no doubt.

That was blatant blasphemy…

Furthermore, even if he woke up Sebastian, he did not know what that child would do.

Would he really help the regent obediently and participate in the Moonlight Queen's sacred test to compete with Alice for the position of the Moonlight Queen?

The regent really did not know if he should do that…

Should he… take a gamble?

However, just as the regent was hesitating…

At the dining table, a soft hand rested gently on the regent's.

The regent was stunned.

It was his wife.

Today, his wife looked very beautiful. At that moment, her youthful and moving face was radiant like a peach blossom.

"My dear…"

Daphne handed a certificate to the regent gently.

"I obtained this permission from my father to visit the secret ground of Compassion. What that child needs is there…"

Daphne looked at her husband with encouragement in her eyes.

"Darling, I've thought it through. I know you have already made up your mind and… I shouldn't have objected to you that day."

"Now, do what you have to do!"

"Daphne…"

Unexpectedly, his wife, who had resolutely denied the plan to awaken Sebastian yesterday, changed her attitude today and began to support him and his daughters.

Furthermore... She even produced a pass that could allow him to head to the secret ground of the goddess.

Instantly, the regent was touched. He knew the value of this document and gripped it with a trembling expression.

He had been lost and wavered between yes and no.

However, at that moment, the gentle smile of his wife gave him immense motivation.

At that moment, motivated by his wife, he finally made up his mind.

Alright, that shall be the plan.

Time to let the entire Leta embrace the insanity!
