139. Celes’s Seriousness
Calysia chuckled, “See? They’ll solve it themselves. Don’t worry about everything yourself~”
Reina nodded.
However, what she had to apologize to the two little dragons for was that she was “eavesdropping” on their conversation with the Eye of Light. Even though this conversation had been requested by Reina to be magically isolated, she didn’t want her mother to see them arguing.
But since it had already happened, it had to be resolved.
They had no idea that Reina’s Eye of Light couldn’t be blocked by just a few magic spells, not to mention the “light magic” that the little dragon whelps loved to use.
“Sister, I’ll be direct. Have you been a little too confident lately?”
This was Angelis’s voice.
“Little An, why do you say that?” Celes’s dejected look made even Reina start to worry.
“Because Sister is always thinking about herself. I know you have no clue. Mmm, I want you to hear me out.”
“Okay, Little An, you can speak first,” Celes’s voice was very low, and Angelis could just barely hear it.
“Sister, you want to be the Dragon King, right? You said so yourself, but with all due respect, you won’t be able to become the Dragon King if you continue like this.”
“…”
“Sister is very strong. Besides Mama and you, are there any other opponents? I don’t know… but have you ever thought about others’ feelings?”
“…”
“Sister, you’ve always been for Mama, establishing the maid corps, and later, you’ve been constantly improving your own strength… But you almost never take care of us. We are a family,” Angelis said these words with anger.
Seeing that Celes didn’t talk back, she continued:
“This time, your new and unconventional rules are very difficult for me to accept…”
Celes was indeed a dragon who pursued strength over teamwork. Angelis’s words were not without reason, but Celes was indeed also helping Mura to complete her “flight,” which was also the reason why Reina and Calysia didn’t help much.
Celes was clearly very concerned about her little sisters, but her method was a little problematic.
So, until now, Reina had been worried that the two sisters would fall out because of this.
Misunderstanding creates resentment, and resentment gives rise to various conflicts.
But until Angelis had poured out all her grievances, Celes had been nodding.
“I know. I promise I’ll ask you about your feelings in the future. I’m sorry…”
“Eh?” Angelis was puzzled. Even she hadn’t expected her older sister not to be angry at all. She had even been prepared for a big fight a few seconds ago.
“This is my failure as an older sister. I’m sorry.”
“I…”
Until Celes placed her hand on Angelis’s shoulder, she shyly turned her head away.
“Little An, if I make any mistakes in the future, can you help me point them out? I don’t want to show my best side in front of Mama… I want to be the future Dragon King.”
Angelis touched her own horn.
“Alright, I didn’t mean that either. It’s good that sister knows her mistake!”
“Ah? Oh…”
Angelis had originally thought that Sister Celes was extremely frivolous, but now it seemed that she was actually a serious dummy?!
It seems there’s a lot of room for teasing…
“Sister, then let me be the head maid, and you be the maid under me. And besides, doesn’t sister want to become the Dragon King? As a Dragon King, how can you be a dragon who serves her mothers for a lifetime?”
“This…”
Celes was clearly a little hesitant, but in the end, she still agreed.
Angelis’s plan was successful.
After walking out of the magic barrier, they reported this matter to Reina. Angelis was about to become the head maid or something…
Reina smiled.
If the future Celes really became the Dragon King, wouldn’t Angelis have to serve her? And thinking of Angelis’s resolute appearance in front of her, Reina for a moment remembered her past self.
Just then, a chaotic sound came from inside the church.
Reina had originally thought that their tracks had been exposed and they had been discovered by humans. The suddenly occurring magical battle made her alert.
“Boom—!”
A wind attribute magic spell pierced through the ceiling and shot straight into the sky.
“Isn’t the disappearance of light attribute magic your priests’ fault!”
A human’s voice came.
Reina lowered her head to look and discovered that it was actually a human man in knight’s armor.
He had once belonged to the Holy Knight Order of the Silver Iron Wall and was now “recruited” by Delgon to become a member of the Golden Knight Order. With the fall of the commander and the disappearance of Miss Elena, their Knight Order was experiencing the most difficult period since the establishment of Delgon.
The man pointed at the priest’s nose. It was actually a succubus priestess.
She was one of the subordinates of the Cardinal, the great succubus Paris. Reina remembered her… she had helped Ann deliver a few letters before, and now she had actually joined the ranks of the succubi.
What the man didn’t know was that the so-called church was no longer the source of light attribute magic, but a cradle for nurturing “succubi.”
These remaining church members were basically all protected succubi. In fact, including the high-ranking members of Lekadis, there were often members of the Golden Sunlit. [The Silver Iron Wall] was now also gone in name only and had been merged with the Golden Sunlit, becoming a single church. This was also the reason why Paris’s subordinate priestess had appeared in the Silver Iron Wall church.
And all over the world, including the succubi exiled from the Four Realms, they had basically all found a suitable living environment under the protection of the church.
However, the scene before her reflected a problem that had to be noticed…
Strictly speaking, the current Reina should call herself the [Dark Radiance Goddess]. Light magic had become dark radiance magic. Although it had merged with Calysia’s power, it was still the same magic as before.
Light attribute magic had suffered.
After the transformation of light magic, light attribute magic had completely lost its object of imitation, which also led to the fact that light attribute magic could hardly take effect. In addition, the guardian, Pesa, had already belonged to the goddess and had become a member of the dragon race. Light attribute magic had almost lost its meaning of existence.
The Knight Order was in decline, and light attribute magic was difficult to use, which made the men experience an unprecedented sense of frustration.
And what made Reina even more worried was not just this.
The ineffectiveness of light attribute magic caused a sensation. Once humans experienced danger, they would become sensitive.
They needed a leader to take charge of the overall situation.
But…
Pope Pesa, Saintess Angelis, and Queen Elena were all on the roof watching humanity suffer!
And if the man and this weak priestess were to fight, the identity of the succubus would undoubtedly be discovered. Although succubi were nominally accepted by Delgon, if they were discovered, and the trail was followed, there would always be a risk of exposure.
At that time, it would be very troublesome to deal with…
Suddenly, the man rushed forward and thrust his greatsword into the wall behind the priestess.
“I used to have the chance to be a deputy commander of the Knight Order. You guys are the lowly rats who ruined my good fortune. You clearly have no strength, yet you act sanctimoniously, pretending to be holy. Hehe, I’ve had enough today!”
“You and that broken goddess should go to hell!”
He now wanted to teach this little priestess a lesson. The latter stepped back, her eyes full of fear.
But just as the man was about to punch this weak cleric in the face in his anger, a black shadow directly pushed him away with magic power and smashed him against the wall.
It was Angelis.
“What did you say about the gods?”
