94. Something Seems to Have Been Exposed
At the same time, the golden feathers were gradually turning purple and black, and the golden flames were burning with a strange black fire. The dazzling golden light also gradually dimmed, even swallowing the original light.
In a panic, Reina thought of the best way to solve the problem.
Her main body quickly recovered the magic power of her clone. Just in time, the magic power being transmitted by Calysia was also diluted and drawn back into her main body, preventing her from transforming into a dragon.
Far away in the bedchamber, Reina, who was clutching her belly, was suddenly invaded by vassal power, and subconsciously stuck out her tongue. Although her clone wasn’t affected, her cheeks were shy, and she blushed and panted.
…Finally, at the critical moment, the shape of the dragon horns disappeared, and the golden feathers of the light magic, which had been gradually dyed black, dissipated in the air before landing. The golden flames also instantly disappeared after turning completely black.
Reina’s clone didn’t transform into a dragon in front of everyone.
But while suppressing the vassal magic power within her, Reina still subconsciously let out a shy sound.
“Mmph?!”
Almost everyone looked up at the same time.
They were confused as to why the God of Light had withdrawn her magic power and stopped the flames from burning, but what made them even more bewildered was the sound the goddess made.
She sounded like she needed help.
Pesa and Paris looked up almost at the same time, but what appeared before them was Calysia holding Reina in an intimate gesture, her face cold and proud, as if looking down on a group of useless trash.
Calysia was angry.
“The God of Light will help you defeat the Four Kings of the Realms?”
“Ridiculous…”
“Listen up, the goddess is my private property, and none of you can defile her.”
Reina couldn’t lift her head.
Out of the dragon’s den, and into the tiger’s den!
But she discovered that her heart wasn’t so resistant anymore.
To be protected by the Dragon King like this, seemed… quite nice?
Paris was a staunch humanist. She would absolutely not allow the sovereignty of humanity to be defiled by any species.
But to actually say such things that disregarded the Dragon King, it was not at all unjust for her to be suppressed by Calysia.
But the victim of this confrontation was me!
Although Calysia had also announced this at the God Slaying Society.
This was the first time she had declared it so publicly!
Reina’s face turned red, and her mind raced. In just a few milliseconds, she came up with a countermeasure… or rather, she chose one from a pre-prepared plan.
Before the humans could react, she endured the embarrassment of being toyed with and said with a tilted head and a smile:
“Miss Dragon King is also a believer in the Goddess of Light~”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent.
Yes, this was all a psychological battle.
Cardinal Paris’s words had angered Calysia, everyone knew that.
And her words, which originally represented the fall and submission of the Goddess of Light, shifted the focus to Calysia the moment Reina said them.
Now, Calysia was like a dragon who had become possessive due to her faith, acting in a way that was consistent with her “setting”!
Plan successful.
Reina had been well-prepared from the beginning, and her pre-planned counter-strategy was indeed effective!
As expected, the humans let out a collective “so that’s how it is.”
“That’s right, the Dragon King and we are on the same side. Everyone, don’t worry~”
The Saintess added, shifting the humans’ focus to “Calysia is an ally.” Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.
Reina patted Agnes’s head.
As expected, her daughter was the most obedient~
But she suddenly forgot that Agnes was a dragon who wanted all of humanity to be suppressed, even exterminated!
Agnes glanced at Calysia’s cold face and continued to add:
“Of course, the Goddess of Light is the Dragon King’s private property.”
Reina was dumbfounded.
So far, if Agnes hadn’t said that last sentence, the farce would have stopped.
But why did she have to add that last sentence, making the humans focus on “private property”?!
Wasn’t this just back to square one?
And the Saintess was more or less the leader of humanity. Her words carried a lot of weight in the human world. Without the Pope, she was the biggest spokesperson. Wasn’t this sentence a “public announcement” of the Goddess of Light’s actual relationship?
The surrounding humans were somewhat shocked.
But more than that, they were as confused as Reina.
Unlike the astonished reaction from the audience, when no one was paying attention, Calysia was actually happy. She patted the Saintess’s head and said with a low laugh:
“As expected, my daughter is the most obedient~”
Agnes looked pleased.
And Reina could only hope that no one would discover that the Saintess was her daughter.
Otherwise, before she could even see the Pope, before she could deal with the Shadow of God, humanity would probably explode and declare all-out war on the dragon race…
It took Reina a long time to explain her relationship with Calysia.
The matter of “possession” was unavoidable, but as long as the relationship between Calysia and her became [faith] instead of [submission], it would be much better.
But Calysia didn’t seem satisfied.
After Bishop Paris had arranged everything and left, Calysia took Reina to a corner and began a private conversation.
But Calysia didn’t say anything.
She just held Reina’s hand, as if waiting for something.
Reina originally thought Calysia had misunderstood something and touched her shoulder, intending to leave, but Calysia pulled her back again.
That look seemed to say, “You’re not going to apologize and you want to leave me?”
But continuing to drag this on wasn’t a problem.
Thinking of Calysia’s resentful attitude towards her, Reina seemed to understand something.
Yes, Calysia really didn’t understand…
Reina discovered that she would subconsciously put Calysia in her own shoes.
Actually, Reina’s stance was completely on the dragon race’s side.
Her child and her wife were both dragons, and none of her subordinates were similar. Even the Saintess had become a dragon. So, she was probably just curious.
Understanding and willingness were two different things.
Calysia didn’t want to pretend to be distant.
For her, this was a kind of mistrust and misunderstanding.
To be honest, Reina didn’t want to either.
Ever since that time with Fred, Reina had been considering no longer purifying her body.
If she were to fall, then let it be.
The only thing still holding her back was the so-called “big picture.”
But compared to the big picture and Master Calysia…
She might as well just apologize.
As long as she could make Little Cal happy.
But what happened next was completely beyond Reina’s understanding.
Calysia directly and gently hugged her and said with a hint of apology:
“I’m sorry, Reina…”
“I was too excited just now, I didn’t consider your feelings…”
Imagine finding out jesus was in an intimate relationship with godzilla
