I, The Dragon Overlord

Chapter 485: The Battle for the Throne

In a hidden hall at a deeper part of the Temple of Brightwater, Louie and several goddesses were lying on soft couches. All of them were facing each other with the aftermath of pleasure on their faces.

Even Louie was a bit overwhelmed after the continuous battle with several goddesses. He would have to use divine power to recover his strength, but if he did so, he would probably be ridiculed by other gods.

The Goddess of Love was lying on her side on the couch. She was draped in a transparent veil that displayed her infinitely beautiful body. Her mountains rose and fell under her breath, making Louie’s eyes flash with greed and endless desire.

Sune was truly a god who represented beauty in the world of San Soliel. Her entire body was simply full of temptations that could cause one to go mad with love and desire.

This instantly made Louie have expectations for the Succubus Queen Melcanthet. He wondered what that endlessly evil and beautiful demon would taste like.

“Your Highness Sune, our alliance has been established, and I have a benefit that I want to give you.”

Louie picked up a glass of wine on the side. He tasted a mouthful of that spicy red wine and exhaled.

The couch in this hall was a bit out of line with the medieval theme of San Soliel. It was definitely not something that mortals on the main continent could make and looked more like a modern sofa.

The gods could create anything with just a thought by using divine power. It was especially so for the gods in their divine kingdoms. Sune had created some tools and substances that did not even require divine power through the power of her divine kingdom.

For example, the wine and food in front of Louie were spontaneously generated by the divine kingdom. They are real objects that could be drunk and eaten, but once they were taken out of the divine kingdom, they would disappear as the laws of the divine kingdom would not apply to them anymore.

“What benefit is His Highness Louie planning to present to me?”

Sune asked in a lazy tone as she lay on the couch, not wanting to get up.

Even the Silver Moon Goddess raised her head in curiosity. Her moonlight-like cold eyes looked over and waited to listen.

“Since the division of the Subila Empire, the most important part, which is the territory occupied by the original imperial family, has been closed off to the gods. The original emperor is resisting the true gods, and now he is not far from death. The western territory will soon be fully displayed to the gods, and I think that Your Highness Sune is also involved in it, right.”

Although Louie asked in a questioning voice, his tone was very certain.

After hearing that Louie was talking about the human country, the Silver Moon Goddess immediately lost interest. Selune just needed to manage her elves and other races living in the forest. She did not want to be involved in human affairs as the gods of the human god system would not allow her to get involved.

Now that the planes were connected once more, in addition to the elves living on the main continent, the elves living in other planes had also returned to their faith in the Goddess of Silver Moon. From the number of believers alone, she had already accumulated enough divine power to reach high-tier. Now, she only needed to slowly move forward step by step.

Although it wasn’t enough to return to her peak power, becoming a high-tier god was equivalent to becoming the strongest god today.

And Selune had Louie to thank for this. The Silver Moon Goddess’ most important source of faith was the elves of the Silver Moon Kingdom. Borrowing the technological civilization of Earth, Louie had assisted Selune in resolving one of the most basic needs of survival, food. Thanks to Louie planting Earth’s food in San Soliel, not only was he able to satisfy Dragon City’s food problems, he was also able to have enough to support the elves. This allowed Selune to feel at ease with the safety and survival of the elves on the main continent.

The alliance between the two had reached the level of intimacy. Both of them shared benefits and harm. In terms of interest, it won’t be excessive to call them husband and wife. They also had a child together which became a bridge. Whether it was internal or external, their association was so strong that it would be nearly impossible for it to be destroyed by anyone.

This time, the Silver Moon Goddess Selun, was quite glad that she agreed to have a child with Louie. With that, she could rest assured that the Silver Moon Kingdom and the Dragon Kingdom were tied together.

Now, the elders of the Silver Moon Kingdom had already begun to choose an auspicious day for Alexia to inherit the throne and make her the empress of the entire southern part of the continent.

“My church is indeed involved in the situation of the Subila Empire. That emperor who refused the gods has incurred our wrath. There were gods who wanted to straight up kill him, but the other gods prevented them from doing so. The gods could just wait for the lifespan of mortals to run out. In the eyes of the gods, the emperor can live out his life, and the gods would have more time to prepare for a fair competition between them with the Subila Kingdom as the prize. That emperor doesn’t know what's good for him. Not choosing to believe in a god would result in him returning to the Underworld after death. He would bear the penalty of unbelief.”

Sune shook her head and felt sorry for the emperor, thinking that he was extremely stupid.

If he chose to believe in a god, his soul would have been able to return to the god’s divine kingdom where he could enjoy heavenly happiness until he becomes one with the divine kingdom. He could even become a holy spirit.

He did not choose such a good ending at all and became a faithless person.

The faithless were imprisoned in the Underworld after death because there was no one to receive them. They would suffer hundreds of years of punishment on the wall of the faithless. This was a wall built by the gods together as a warning to the people on the main continent. It was a warning for them to have faith, and it was simply a threat that forces all races to choose to believe in a god.

TLN: In case people forgot Hell, Underworld, and Abyss are three different places. Underworld => souls; Abyss => demons; Hell => devils

The original wall of the faithless had been destroyed, but a new wall had already been built in its place. Louie had also contributed to it. In this age when the gods had just awakened, there were still some more faithless people, but after a few centuries, there would be few such people.

“Your Highness Louie, you mentioned the Subila Empire, so could the matter you sought me out be related to that country?”

“Yes, Your Highness Sune! The first princess of the Subila Empire had great ambitions and approached me…”

Louie told Sune about Andrea in detail, hoping that her church would support Andrea and let her succeed in usurping the throne. The church of the goddess could be able to gain a lot of benefits in seizing power without having to compete with other gods.

“That princess is really interesting and talented. Hearing you talk about her, I would like to meet her someday. If she could rely on herself to take the throne, I will certainly be willing to shelter her.”

Sune’s eyes shone with love as she laughed.

The gods would never participate in the change of kingship because it would cause chaos on the main continent. Gods should deal with gods, and mortals should deal with mortals. This was an unwritten rule. The churches of the gods would only choose to support one side in the competition and give shelter to the competitors against other gods. If their chosen competitor won, then the church that supported the winner would also receive benefits.

Now, Louie told Sune that Princess Andrea had a powerful hand that would let her obtain the final victory. This was indeed a great benefit that would allow her church to preach more easily and quickly in the Subila Kingdom. The church supported by the king could not only become the only church but could also gain administrative benefits.

As for Louie’s implicit hope that Sune would join forces with him to face the annoyance of the other gods, Sune did not mind. Since the two of them had already signed an alliance agreement, she naturally had to deal with possible troubles in exchange for the benefits.

Seeing the Goddess of Love and Beauty agree to help Andrea, Louie nodded lightly. His agreement with Andrea was also completed, and now, he could put all his thoughts toward the dragons of the continent.

Now, he just needed to wait for the battle for the throne of the Subila Kingdom to come to an end.
