Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 96.2: Elktela… I Want to Make You Mine (2)

She frowned and said, "Don't make such a joke. Rayne Haines, Leta has been living an ignoble existence under the quasigods for a thousand years without being able to break free from the threat. Even with the intervention of those demigods from your side, it's impossible. Absolutely impossible..."

Rayne smiled and said gently, "Indeed, there's no reason for you to believe me. I can understand that. Therefore, Great Teacher, we'll talk about the quasigods after we settle the problem of the Black Catastrophes that no one has been able to resolve for the past thousand years. How about that?"

Rayne's tone was calm and composed. His words and actions gave the Great Teacher the illusion that everything in the world seemed to be within his calculations.

That's right…

Suddenly, the Great Teacher realized that the man before her was definitely not an ordinary person.

He had already quelled way too many impossibilities and created miracles incessantly...

He killed an ancient dragon and repelled the Empress of the Nether Realm.

And now, he wanted to find the entrance of the mysterious lairs and head to the origin of the Black Catastrophes that no one had explored in the past thousand years…

Thereafter, he was even confident that he could purge the quasigods and give the Leta people a peace that they would not even dream of.

The Great Teacher looked at Rayne in a daze.

Suddenly, she thought of something.

Although this man was only a mortal, he possessed…

Ah, that's right.

He possessed divinity.

At that moment, the Great Teacher suddenly understood why Rayne Haines could always attract her gaze…

It was because of his aura.

The Great Teacher had always had that vague feeling.

The words and actions of this young man who looked to be less than 20 years old were indescribably different from ordinary people.

It was an indescribable feeling of vicissitude, as though he had already seen through the mortal world and crossed the endless sands of time. Under his calm gaze was unimaginable suffering and misery.

It was as though his soul had long transcended that mortal body and was forged into a cold superior being like a god.

As the quasigods had said… perhaps the bewitchment of the evil dragon was not the main reason why the Great Teacher was infatuated with Rayne.

There were some things that were way too embarrassing that the Great Teacher was unwilling to admit even in her heart.

However, at times, the Great Teacher would feel that the reason why Rayne was so special in her heart was because he had allowed the lonely woman who stood at the top of the world to discover… an expert who could conquer her.

Could he… truly resolve the threat of the quasigods?

Could he really end Leta's calamity for the past thousand years and help the elves reconcile with their gods?

Even if it was merely a situation where they would no longer attack one another and kept to themselves...

Of course, according to what Rayne said, resolving the problem of the quasigods would merely be to face an even more dangerous catastrophe.

However…

If the Great Teacher could travel with such a dependable man in the future, it would probably be much easier on her...

"Great Teacher."

Rayne asked, "Are you satisfied with my explanation?"

The Great Teacher sighed. "I can't say that I'm satisfied. There's nothing much I can say either. After all, as you said, everything has to wait till we resolve the issue of the Black Catastrophes, right?"

Rayne smiled. "That's right. In that case, now..."

"Now?"

The Great Teacher's heart skipped a beat. "W-What else do you want?"

Rayne's voice turned gentle and affectionate. "Elktela, I have something else to say to you…"

The Great Teacher averted her gaze. "N-No, you don't have to say anything more… let's stop here today…"

However, Rayne did not heed the Great Teacher's orders.

He did not say anything and merely walked towards the Great Teacher silently.

This was an extremely dangerous move.

After all, there was a fatal mithril barrier between Rayne and the Great Teacher right now!

However, Rayne turned a blind eye to it.

He walked towards the Great Teacher calmly and smashed straight into the mithril wall that was slicing the air wildly.

This was an invisible confrontation.

As for the Great Teacher, she lost to Rayne once more…

The Great Teacher's heart could not help but tremble because of some indescribable feeling. Finally, she took the initiative to give in and removed the mithril barrier, allowing Rayne to walk to her side…

Rayne stood in front of the Great Teacher. He was so close that his body was almost stuck to the latter.

The Great Teacher was like a frightened little animal.

Against Rayne, she felt an inexplicable sense of cowardice.

She stood stiffly on the spot, not daring to do anything else…

The man before her was her teacher, Leta's hope… and the first male that she respected.

With a trembling voice, the Great Teacher asked weakly, "Rayne Haines, what are you doing?"

"Elktela, I haven't finished answering your question."

"Getting close to you and gaining your trust is indeed to lay a foundation for a future collaboration with Leta."

"However, I'm not here purely to work with Leta. After all, according to what you said, there's no reason for me to be intimate with or even humiliate you, right?"

The Great Teacher had already guessed what Rayne wanted to say and her body began to heat up unknowingly. "Stop talking… I…"

"There's another personal reason why I'm here."

With that said, suddenly, Rayne opened his arms to the Great Teacher.

Thereafter, he hugged the Great Teacher tightly in an unyielding manner that brooked no resistance.

At that moment, the Great Teacher's body had already gone limp.

This elven demigod who was millions of times stronger than Rayne was like a weak girl at the moment, unable to resist Rayne's invasion.

For the first time in her life, Leta's Great Teacher, Elktela Lucia, was hugged by a man.

It was a mysterious feeling.

The Great Teacher was forced to lean in the young man's embrace.

She could smell the scent of Rayne and could even feel his heartbeat and pulse clearly.

Rayne's heartbeat was steady and his pulse was normal.

This meant that he was extremely calm right now—it was a world of a difference compared to the flustered Great Teacher.

This made the Great Teacher realize even more humiliatingly that she had always been the one to be toyed with in her confrontations with Rayne.

However, the scary thing was…

To think that… she could not bring herself to hate the feeling of being inferior to someone else.

In this crushing defeat, the winner, Rayne, declared the final judgment on the fate of the Great Teacher.

It was a statement that almost melted the Great Teacher's heart.

"I'm sorry, Elktela Lucia. I've always had an extremely offensive thought."

Rayne whispered into the ears of the Great Teacher.

"I want to make you mine."

The Great Teacher's heart skipped a beat—she could not believe that someone would say such blasphemous words in front of her one day.

Wha—

Was this Rayne's motive all along?

So, Rayne was not just teasing her mercilessly.

He was truly bent on... getting his hands on her?!

This surprised the Great Teacher. In fact… there was a hint of ecstasy.

Even so, the Great Teacher naturally could not agree to such a ridiculous request.

She was Elktela Lucia, Leta's Great Teacher of White Light.

Her stance was unshakable...

Relying on her final bit of rationality, the Great Teacher bit her lip and said with difficulty, "Rayne, give up..."

However, she knew.

She no longer had the strength to resist.

Her rejection was probably useless.

Even so, the pride in her heart made it such that she had to reject Rayne's confession—that was her last bit of dignity.

"Is that so?"

Rayne said, "Alright then, I respect your decision, Elktela Lucia."

Rayne did not hesitate at all. After being rejected, he let go of the Great Teacher immediately and turned to leave after apologizing politely to the latter.

The flirtatious atmosphere came to an abrupt stop.

The Great Teacher felt as though someone had splashed cold water on her while she was asleep.

She jolted awake.

H-Huh...

Huh?!

In the blink of an eye, that warm embrace was already gone from her and left without any reluctance.

The Great Teacher was the only one left standing foolishly on the spot.

She was dumbfounded.
