634 Dusks Arrival (1/2)
From a certain standpoint, Reyne had been raised as a boy who would inherit the throne ever since her birth. After the king passed away, she always wore male attire or knight attire while meeting others. Her pattern of speech was also completely masculine.
She also had a knightly aura polished by a long-term military life. It could be said that if she covered her face, she would be manlier than most men…
Her face appeared rather gender neutral to begin with. Since she behaved and acted like a man, and had a knightly aura that was handsome and straightforward due to her military life, along with incredible combat achievements that other people her age could only be in awe of, she became the princess on a white horse that noble girls idolized… and it would be quite easy to think of her as a prince.
As for her two concubines, the story of how they began with a political marriage that both hated, then going to mutual understanding, to love that surpassed gender boundaries, to absolute love that didn't care about anything else, that would be enough for many books… Hey, I'm talking about normal books, not porn books!
Still, when considering the high status of these two concubines, just modifying the story slightly—no, no modification was probably needed—just telling the original story as was could probably produce novels, dramas, plays, rumors, and so many other versions.
People would always be interested in gossip regarding the royals. The more novel and fresh the story, the more popular it would be. When considering how Reyne's tales were so legendary that they were now known as the ”Hundred Flowers Legend of the Yuri Princess”, it seemed likely that many authors and actors would be able to survive on this story alone.
What? You're asking me if I already came up with a name for this novel? Of course! I felt that this novel would have great potential. I had already settled on this as my next, slightly titillating novel. I would write the story with this true story as the foundation.
Of course, readers were highly difficult to please these days. That was why I was going to expand the harem by one hundred times, multiply the fighting and killing by ten times, and have the story be about abusing young masters and collecting beauties for the harem every day. I would then insert some famous actual people into the story as guest appearances. People loved to read such things these days. I was confident that my novel would become a huge hit.
Wait a moment, why was Reyne pulling out her sword?
”Oh, I accidentally said everything out loud again? Haha, it was all just a joke, a joke! Reyne, you're my descendant after all, so would I casually taint the Mist Family name like that? Do I look like someone who would do such a thing?
”What, you're saying that I totally do? Please. Look directly into my pure eyes. What impurity do you see… What? You're saying that you see nothing but impurity and schemes? Tsk, you must be seeing things.”
Now, in order to prevent the comical scene of an obedient grandchild trying to chase down and attack her grandfather, I changed the topic back to a serious one and asked about Reyne's demon bloodline.
Previously, I had checked Reyne's body's condition. Although she had accepted the power of Chaos and became a knight job class member capable of controlling Chaos, after so many years of continuously giving her blood transfusions, her Chaos Bloodline from Karwenz had been almost completely replaced by my far more moderate bloodline.
Reyne had also lost a power level because of the weakening of her bloodline since she'd had a Main God level bloodline from Karwenz. According to the rules of Chaos Abyss Bloodlines, she would have been capable of borrowing power from the Chaos Abyss itself. However, she would also become restrained by the Chaos Abyss's rules if she did so. As for using my bloodline… Reyne would only be able to rely on herself.
Not only that, the instability of constantly changing bloodlines caused her to constantly have headaches, which also made her temper more violent than before.
When looking at this from the long-term perspective, it should be a good thing. Only something that completely belonged to oneself would be the safest. My Mist Family Bloodline that my system had worked hard on modifying probably wouldn't be much weaker than the Chaos Abyss version Karwenz Mist Bloodline. At the very least, my bloodline would be more suitable for the mortal plane.
As Reyne's bloodline was purified, her potential would also improve. But for the short time being, her power level would definitely decrease. As for her chaos knight job class, the demons and Chaos creatures she summoned definitely wouldn't be as obedient as before. That was because previously she would be considered to be under Karwenz's protection.
Of course, the demon wave's imminent arrival meant a direct connection to the Chaos Abyss. All Chaos Abyss related job classes such as chaos knight, black knight, dark cultists, demon warlocks, and so on would all be strengthened.
But now, Reyne no longer needed to rely on individual strength. I should mention again that I had completed blood transfusion for Glina even earlier. Just like Reyne, Glina who was queen as well as a great engineer had no need to rely on a bloodline of Chaos.
I'd originally thought that Karwenz would try to do something before Reyne's bloodline was completely changed into my own. But, strangely, Karwenz had yet to contact me even once since we last saw each other in Hell, no matter if it was direct or indirect contact. He seemed like he didn't even care about losing an important chess piece like Reyne.
But, the Chaos Abyss was about to become directly connected to the mortal plane. It was also obvious that Karwenz was involved in this. What was his objective? Why did he take the risk of serious injury to personally injure Anslo in the latter's Divine Kingdom?
For the sake of killing a specific elf? For the sake of completely annihilating all elves? Was his grudge that deep?
I wasn't afraid of opponents who were more powerful than I was. However, I was indeed quite worried about this opponent who I had no idea what his overall goal was.
”Has Karwenz contacted you recently?”
Since I was wondering about this, I simply asked directly. Reyne and Karwenz had previously had a soul connection. If he truly was up to something, it was possible that Reyne might know something.
Perhaps Reyne would be able to pick up a single word or a desire. It would be impossible for anyone to completely control their own brain. It would be possible to gleam information through a soul connection. That was the main reason why I had completely left Reyne and Glina out of the loop back when I was planning to establish Hell.
Reyne fell silent after she heard this. After a while, it was as if she thought of something, but she appeared rather hesitant.
”Don't be afraid to say anything you can think of. No need to be afraid of being wrong. I'm just asking casually.”
”My ancestor… he seems to be searching for some location that's highly important to him.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
