Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 94.2: There's No Good Woman By My Brother's Side (2)

Although Edaline was looking forward to it, her expression was tense and serious. "Speak quickly."

Rayne said with a bitter smile, "Little Eda, I hope you can understand about the matter of the Great Teacher. She is an ally that I have to fight for. However, the personality of a demigod is too difficult to read. Therefore, I have to use some other methods."

Edaline harrumphed. "That's why you did the same thing to her as you did to Hela?"

Rayne was stunned. "Hela? How do you know that?"

"Idiot, the low-level barrier set up by Hela won't be able to block my detection at all, alright?"

Edaline was the epitome of a demigod.

She could dispel the spells of ordinary demigods with ease.

As for the so-called detection barrier, its effect on Edaline was practically negligible.

Therefore, the night before Rayne returned to the capital and was about to part ways with Hela...

Edaline knew everything that the two of them did in Hela's suburban manor.

Rayne froze for a moment. "Haven't I already… told Hela the method to upgrade the barrier?"

Edaline sneered, "Don't believe in her magic skills. Back when Hela was in the Church, she was always at the bottom of the theoretical examinations. She doesn't know how to play with magic at all."

When Edaline recalled that chaotic night, she said angrily, "You guys sure had fun, even getting those puppets to call you daddy, huh?"

Rayne clarified sternly, "No, that was Hela's suggestion."

Edaline said in embarrassment, "I don't care about those details!"

However, after saying that, Edaline suddenly recalled something.

Actually, apart from Edaline, there should have been another witness in the capital that night.

However, given that person's character, she should have merely kept everything to herself and remained silent as usual.

"By the way, Constance should have the ability to see through that crude barrier as well… Although that woman's bloodline barely meets the criteria of ascension, her divinity is very special… but it doesn't matter. You don't have to care about what that woman thinks. In any case, she was the one who rejected your confession back then. She deserves it!"

Edaline did not have a good impression of Constantine.

Furthermore, upon careful thought, it seemed like she disliked every single woman around Rayne…

At the thought of everything, Edaline could not help but sigh. There were some things that she had wanted to say a long time ago.

"To be honest… Rayne, take a look at the women around you when you're free. In the past, you liked married women. Now, you're only looking for strange people. Do you really intend to marry these women in the future?"

Rayne asked with a smile, "What sort of woman do you think I should look for to get married to, Little Eda?"

Edaline had considered this question for a long time. Therefore, she blurted, "At the very least, it should be a woman who will take care of you. That pointy ear of Leta doesn't have many years left to live. Hela can't even take care of herself. As for Constance, you'll feel awkward if you get back together with the woman who hurt you, right… hmm? What are you looking at me for?"

As Edaline spoke, she suddenly noticed Rayne's gaze.

Rayne looked at Edaline gently and asked, "Since Little Eda is worried about the women around me, why don't I just not get married and let you take care of me?"

"Huh? D-Don't spout such strange words out of the blue!"

Edaline's reaction was intense as she scolded Rayne in embarrassment.

Yet, she did not look angry in the slightest bit.

However, Rayne did not say anything more.

He merely looked at his younger sister quietly with an affectionate gaze.

At that moment, Rayne's emotions were extremely complicated.

The lively, cute and shy girl before him was his beloved younger sister.

In his previous reincarnation cycles, she was Rayne's strongest assistant and was also his only trump card in the early stages against Histia.

Rayne made use of her countless times and then killed her.

In fact, he was already numb to killing to the point where he would not shed a single tear for his sister.

A moment later.

Rayne sighed.

"Little Eda…"

His tone turned deep. "All these years, our relationship has not been good because of the matter of the throne. Actually, I regret it very much. I should have known earlier that you did not want me to inherit the throne because you were worried about my safety. I'm sorry, Little Eda… please forgive my insensibility as a brother in the past."

When Edaline heard that, she was stunned.

Rayne: "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Edaline said in shock, "To think that I would be able to hear human words of such decency from you one day..."

Rayne asked with a smile, "So, can you forgive your brother?"

"Yes, I'll forgive you for now…"

Edaline asked softly, "Then… can you forgive me too?"

Rayne asked, "Forgive you for what?"

Edaline blushed and said embarrassedly, "I've been bad-mouthing you for so many years. I even thought of making use of Edgeworth… to fight with you for the throne."

"Little Eda."

Rayne looked at Edaline gently. "You're my beloved sister. I've never blamed you."

"!!!"

Edaline's heart skipped a beat as she looked at Rayne in disbelief. His sincere and warm words caused her heart to pound. This was the first time she had regained that long-awaited happiness in her heart ever since she ascended to become a demigod.

Her previous resentment towards Rayne for neglecting her was swept away.

Edaline averted her gaze, clearly at a loss towards her brother's sincere honesty.

Edaline's heart was pounding. "Rayne Haines… W-What's wrong with you?! Why did you suddenly become so glib with your words… Y-You must have said a lot of such words to that pointy e-ear as well, right?!"

Rayne's tone was still sincere. "I'm not exaggerating, Little Eda. Furthermore, you're different from the Great Teacher."

.

He walked forward and gazed into the trembling, beautiful eyes of Edaline. "You're my only and beloved younger sister."

Once again, Edaline received a critical blow.

Beloved...

Younger sister...

I-Is this really how Rayne thinks of me...?!

He really cares so much about me...?!

Edaline blushed and stammered.

"S-Stop saying such mushy words…"

She could not contain the joy in her heart. However, she could not bring herself to express her sincere and warm love.

"In any case, what do you need me to do now? Hurry and tell me! I'll do everything for you!"
