Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 159.1: Thank You for Completing My Consort's Crown (1)

Compassion looked at Sebastian with a smile. "Do you want to stay? In the paradise I created for you guys, you won't have any worries. I'll protect you and take care of you forever."

Sebastian shook his head stiffly. "No… I don't need it…"

Compassion asked, "Then why are you looking for me?"

"I—"

Sebastian was stunned for a few seconds before saying, "I'm here to look for you… to purify a skeleton."

Compassion asked in confusion, "Skeleton?"

Sebastian's voice was stiff. His heart was already riddled with holes from the various blows. He said mechanically, "I hope that you can purify this skeleton so that it can be used for the coronation ceremony of the Moonlight Queen."

"Moonlight Queen…"

Compassion remembered that it was another her who gave the elves the strength to resist her.

However, to Compassion's surprise…

The skeleton that Sebastian took out was…

Compassion was stunned. "Is this… my… skull?"

Sebastian revealed a desolate smile and asked the evil god beneath the abyss, "That's right. Do you feel conflicted looking at your own corpse?"

Compassion smiled. "No, that won't happen… For the sake of my ideals, I've already given up on my physical body. I've become omnipresent and I've already fused with my compatriots."

Sebastian understood.

Compassion meant that all the quasigods in the mortal world were actually controlled by her.

The quasigods that devoured the elves crazily were not cursed elven gods. Instead, they were Compassion.

Right from the beginning, the one who drove those twisted corpses to kill the elves was all that evil god.

Compassion!

Compassion smiled. "However, I don't understand. Why do you need a purified skeleton? Can you tell me what you want to do with it?"

At that moment, Sebastian was already stunned… The cruel truth struck his mind. He had almost forgotten why he came here and why he wanted to meet Goddess Compassion.

Compassion asked expectantly, "Is it because you want to become the Moonlight King so that you can lead all the citizens of Leta to join me?"

Sebastian was dumbfounded.

Sebastian said, "I-I don't know…"

"You have to know."

Compassion said gently, "Please tell me your answer quickly."

This was not a question.

It was a threat.

The gentle power that was healing Sebastian was gradually transforming into a poison filled with killing intent and malice, as though it could kill him at any moment!

Sebastian was not afraid of death, but right now… he was very afraid of this evil god at the bottom of the abyss.

After a moment of silence…

He revealed a tragic smile. "I think… yes."

Compassion was stunned and her heart raced furiously.

"Alright! Awesome! That's great! I'd be happy to help! However…"

Compassion's gentle laughter sounded from the abyss. "You have to leave your soul here."

Ha…

Sebastian laughed bitterly. Although this goddess looked innocent, she was actually extremely cunning.

Sebastian could not imagine why there would be such a disgusting evil being in the world.

Using his soul as a hostage?

At this point, it no longer mattered.

Sebastian agreed to Compassion's request.

Compassion smiled. "If you betray me, I'll make your life a living hell."

What else could Sebastian say at this moment?

Sebastian: "… Deal."

Therefore, Sebastian released the mental seal on his own body and allowed Compassion to take away something extremely important from him. As well as… the skull of Compassion.

Compassion accepted the skull and sank it into the abyss, handing it to her true body below.

After some modifications, the purified skull was returned to Sebastian's hands.

"From this moment on, the deal has been established."

Beneath the abyss, Compassion cast a hopeful gaze.

"Don't let me down, Sebastian."

…

…

It was an honor.

In the past thousand years, Sebastian became the only person to leave the God Realm of Compassion alive.

He had finally obtained the purified skeleton that he had dreamed of.

In the future, this would be forged into the most gorgeous and powerful Moonlight Queen crown in the history of Leta.

At the same time, Sebastian learned the truth.

Regarding the quasigods, the calamity a thousand years ago and the root cause of all the tragedies of the elves…

After seeing the truth, it was impossible for Sebastian to say that he did not feel anything.

Right now, he only had one thought.

He really wanted to laugh.

Back then, when the Tragic Moon Queen told Sebastian that he could look for the queen of the quasigods to purify the skeleton, he felt that it was ridiculous.

Queen of the quasigods... What in the world was that?

That surprised Sebastian but more than anything, it made him curious.

However, when the truth was revealed, he could only see a bleak scene.

There was no hope for the elves.

Goddess Compassion had never protected the elves. It was merely a residue left behind by Compassion that offered her strength and combined it with the sacrifices of countless late queens to form the Moonlight Queen system, allowing Leta to hold on bitterly until now.

The Goddess Compassion that the elves had always believed in was in fact their greatest enemy! She was the source of all evil!

An evil god of the Nether Realm who ascended from the elven gods treated the elves as her playthings with innocent malice and tortured them for more than a thousand years!

Sebastian witnessed the vastness of the quasigods' lair.

Every single one of the beautiful goddesses in the illusions was a quasigod controlled by Compassion. Their numbers were shocking as they guarded Compassion's true body, forming the most terrifying army in the entire mortal world.

Teachers?

Imperial Guards?

Moonlight Queens?

The peak combat strength of the mortal civilization was nothing in front of Compassion! They were as weak as ants!

If not for the restrictions of Order, these terrifying divine beings would be able to sweep through the entire mortal world in a month! They would eat up all the elves!

They could not win!

There was no way they could win!!!

Even though Sebastian already knew the truth and who his enemy was, he could not feel any fighting spirit or anger.

He was afraid and had gone cowardly...

"Fufu, fufufufufu..."

Finally, Sebastian could no longer maintain his calm.

First, he chuckled. Thereafter, he began to laugh hysterically, as though he was howling.

This was the truth!

This was the truth of everything!

Right from the beginning, there had been no hope for the elves!

However, wasn't that even better?!

That way, Sebastian could play with this country even more unscrupulously!

His goal was still to destroy Haines.

The suffering of the elves originated from Compassion.

However, Order was also one of the creators of the tragedy.

There was still a need for the elves to hate her.

Furthermore, they should take revenge on her!

Yes.

Sebastian knew very well that even if Haines was destroyed, the elves would not be able to obtain salvation.

The rich resources of the Haines Empire were still unable to help the elves escape their suffering.

That was because the enemy of the elves was an evil god of the Nether Realm born in the mortal world!

She was so powerful that she was like a gigantic mountain that lay before ants!
