Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 250: Engagement with Goddess Justice

Although he had successfully summoned the Blood Empress, it was clear that Goddess Justice was not in a good mood today.

Right now, Goddess Justice was filled with complaints towards Rayne Haines.

Rayne Haines, how long had it been since he came looking for her?

Due to Olivia's blockade, it had been difficult for Justice to contact Rayne. However, could Rayne not think of a way to summon her on his own volition?

In the past, Justice trusted this follower of hers so much that at one point, she even rejoiced that she had finally found her Avowed Chosen.

But now, great. Her Avowed Chosen was stolen away by a smelly simp dragon.

Ever since she was chased out of Rayne's eyes by Olivia in the Desolate Tundra, she no longer had the chance to meet Rayne. Olivia was the only one who enjoyed tireless fun, prancing in front of Justice's doorsteps every day while praising the latter's follower for being awesome.

The worst thing was what happened after that incident in Heavenly Kingdom Dawn...

Justice did not know if it was because Rayne had done too many abandonment incidents in the mortal world that he was now used to being a scumbag. However, he did not even bother to come and console her after what he did to her?!

Initially, Justice had already decided to forgive Rayne and was even thinking seriously about how she should face Rayne who would come apologizing in fear. She should put on a gentle expression, forgive the rudeness of this follower and say something nice to make him have an even more favorable impression of her.

However, good heavens. This fella actually forgot all about the matter and went chasing after the wife of someone else heartlessly.

Was the strongest goddess of the Nether Realm less attractive when compared to a married woman?!

Justice began to fall into deep self-doubt in some strange part of her soul.

No one knew how many innocent and pitiful Blood Fiends were implicated due to Justice's unstable emotions during this period of time. However, they only knew that the production of the Abyssal Sacred Vows had increased by more than ten times in the past month.

As for the group of trembling apostles under the Blood Empress, no matter how hard they scratched their heads, they would not understand. The reason why their goddess had such a bad temper was not because she was the wrathful Goddess of War.

In fact, it was not even because of Caldera's crushing defeat or Olivia pooping on her head everyday.

It was because a scumbag ghosted her after playing with her!

However

Even now, Justice had not completely decided to give up on Rayne.

After all, Rayne was only a mortal. Perhaps he was merely deceived by Olivia and had no idea how disrespectful of a crime his actions towards her were... That would make sense too.

Therefore, although Justice was extremely displeased and disappointed, she still felt that Rayne was worthy of her forgiveness. Therefore, as long as he could comfort her properly, she might be able to

However, to Justice's surprise

"My goddess"

When he met Justice again, Rayne stared at the goddess's face and tears could no longer be controlled from falling from his eyes.

His voice was calm, but it seemed like he was just trying his best to suppress his sobs.

"I finally... get to see you again."

Goddess Justice: "Oh!"

This affectionate call immediately threw Goddess Justice's resentment to the back of her mind.

"T-This is way too ridiculous, Rayne Haines. Why are you crying? Did Olivia mistreat you? Hurry and tell me!"

"N-No, it's not like that"

Rayne's voice was a little desolate. He wiped his tears and forced a smile.

"My goddess, I just miss you too much."

Justice: "!!!"

Ahhh, this guy!

Justice was originally filled with resentment towards Rayne Haines. However, the negative emotions in her heart dissipated instantly.

She gazed at Rayne. Before long, the goddess could not help but smile

Right now, the only thing left in her heart was endless love for her most adorable follower.

Thinking about it carefully, it was clear that Justice had misunderstood Rayne as well. As a mortal, he was constantly under Olivia's long-term watch. How many chances could he get to find an area in the mortal world shrouded by Justice's authority to bypass Olivia and contact her?

How could he see through the magic of a goddess and be attentive enough to notice the subtle changes in Lynn's body while exercising vigorously with her?

At that time, even Lynn herself did not notice anything!

I'm way too stupid and sensitive

To think that I would doubt Rayne's loyalty to me

Justice's gaze trembled and she felt extremely guilty.

Not only was she no longer angry at Rayne, she even began to blame herself

Rayne continued helplessly, "During my collaboration with Her Highness Olivia, I've been looking for an opportunity to contact you. However, you should know that it's not easy."

Yes, that was indeed the case!

Justice nodded with tears in her eyes. Indeed, she was too harsh on Rayne. Rayne had never forgotten her!

Rayne said, "But now, my goddess, I've finally found an opportunity."

Goddess Justice nodded repeatedly in her heart and asked anxiously, "Tell me, Rayne Haines, how exactly do you need me to help you?"

"No, actually I don't want to pray to you for anything."

Rayne smiled piously. "In order for me to not be separated from you anymore and be able to feel your existence at all times, I just hope that I can become a part of you."

"!!!"

Justice knew what Rayne wanted to do. What he wanted to obtain was the blessing that was only second to an oath to the goddessthe body of the goddess, in a physical sense.

By granting the follower a portion of her body, the goddess could establish an unbreakable connection with the follower. At that point, the follower himself would be like a corrupted world that could walk on his own. Not only could he communicate with the goddess unimpeded, he could also become the support of the goddess and cast a bright light on the projection of the goddess in the mortal world.

In the mortal world, there was a specific term for such a situation and they were called...

Chosens.

However, generally speaking, granting flesh and blood to become the incarnation of the goddess in the mortal world should be the final part of the entire chosen trial.

But now, Rayne actually wanted to freeload

However, at that moment, Justice was extremely touched by Rayne's request!

Rayne wants to be my chosen

H-He has me in his heart!

Naturally, Justice would not reject the mortal she doted on the most.

Not to mention, as long as Rayne became Justice's chosen, he would be completely bound to Justice. No matter what despicable methods Olivia used, she would not be able to separate him from her!

A dark red drop of blood seeped out of Goddess Justice's fingertip and passed through the door of the Nether Realm, flying towards Rayne.

Justice asked gently, "Rayne, do you want to be my chosen?"

Rayne nodded firmly. "That's what I've always yearned for, Your Majesty."

Thereafter, Rayne revealed a sincere smile. "However this is not my ultimate desire."

A chosen was not the final relationship between the follower and the goddess.

Above that was an even greater and supreme honor that all followers dreamed of. However, in reality, even fantasizing about it was a blasphemy and offense to the goddessa supreme honor.

In other words

An oath made with the goddess that would not end until the world was destroyed.

To practically marry the goddess!

Similar to most gods of the Nether Realm, ever since the chaos of the world was created, the position of Justice's Avowed Chosen had always been empty.

There was naturally no way a proud god would submit to a mortal so easily.

No matter how outstanding this mortal was or how he could please her, ants were ants.

It was almost impossible for the gods of the Nether Realm to treat a mortal as an existence equal to them and even develop love for the mortal

Rather, it could be said that the setting of position of the Avowed Chosen was just a huge promise that was almost impossible to accomplish.

Justice thought the same as the other evil gods.

Before she met Rayne, that was...

"Avowed Chosen, huh"

Justice revealed a bitter smile. "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you then, Rayne. I've never thought of making an oath with anyone, not to mention... I have no idea how I should treat the mortal I make an oath with."

Rayne said, "In my opinion, after making an oath with the goddess, the goddess doesn't need to change anything. The one who needs to change should be the chosen."

Rayne stared at Justice with an unprecedented deep love in his eyes. It was another kind of passionate love that surpassed faith.

"After making an oath with the goddess, the chosens can no longer worship the goddess like an idol in a church. Instead, they have to take care of her like a wife and dote on her so that she can walk into their lives This is the ultimate desire of all followers, the faith that everyone yearns for."

"Like a w-wife... H-How disrespectful."

The cold-blooded and violent Goddess Justice in the past was now wavering for no reason. It was as though She was a little shy?

"Rayne Haines, is this your understanding of an Avowed Chosen? So, you want to make me your wife? If that's what you want I told you previously, didn't I? I can give you a projection of me."

However, Rayne did not say anything and merely looked at Justice affectionately.

Projections had never been something he craved.

T-This guy... He only wants me if it's my main body?

What a troublesome fellow

Goddess Justice lamented internally. However, in any case, she did not hate Rayne's passionate pursuit of her.

As the supreme goddess, she would just choose to not reply him with great interest.

"In that case, perform well. Rayne Haines, I acknowledge that you're a follower qualified to become an Avowed Chosen. However if you want to make an oath with me, think of a way to become an actual chosen first."

Finally, Justice smiled and looked at Rayne gently. "Rayne Haines, if you can make enough sacrifices one day and truly please me, a miracle might happen and I'll choose you as my Avowed Chosen. At that time, no matter what you want to take me as, you can do as you please."

Thereafter, under Justice's control, the drop of blood of the goddess fused into Rayne's body.

After completing the blessing for Rayne, the door to the Nether Realm closed.

With the blood as an imprint, Justice could already sense Rayne's existence extremely clearly.

What a wonderful feeling.

Rayne Haines was once again under her control.

At the thought of that, Goddess Justice could not help but feel a little excited.

However, before long

Anxiety surged into her heart again.

Was she too harsh on Rayne just now?

Rayne tried his best to resist Olivia's temptation and came to her. He even expressed his loyalty to her. However, apart from giving Rayne blood, she merely patronized him with verbal promises...

Indeed, was I really too... conservative?

If Olivia was the one who heard Rayne say the same thing regarding an Avowed Chosen, how would she reply to him?

Justice could not help but feel worried and conflicted.

She did not know if Rayne would be disappointed by her neglecting him like this

At that moment, a Blood Fiend walked in front of her and reported respectfully.

"Your Majesty, a general of the Czechrya Empire killed 50,000 followers of the evil dragon and sacrificed half of his country's population to you. He's hoping to obtain a reward from you."

"What reward does he want?"

"Goddess, he said that he has admired you for a long time and doesn't wish for any blessings. He only hopes to catch a glimpse of your face."

"With just that pathetic little bit of sacrifice? How arrogant and shameless"

Goddess Justice had an indifferent expression. "Send Alva to eliminate the remaining half of the population as well."

"Yes!"

After dealing with an insignificant matter, Justice continued to be vexed.

Indeed, have I truly been way too stingy...?

Have I let down Rayne's loyalty towards me...?

However, no matter what...

I'll share the interesting news of Rayne proposing to me with Olivia first!
