In the magnificent Golden Palace, Odín Tangerine sat on a hard throne. Above his head were flowing starlight and divine light. Giant dragons flapped their wings and swam around the palace, stirring up strong winds.
Looking down from the throne, he could see more than half of the city clearly. All kinds of buildings and markets spread out in all directions with this floating palace as the center. There was no end in sight.
"I will consider it." Odín nodded. The slender fingers of his left hand on the throne moved. "You may leave."
The messenger with the national seal of Ayrsala on his shoulder bowed. He lowered his head and respectfully retreated until he reached the threshold. He bowed again before he dared to turn around and walk down the steps. Finally, he rode the Hippogryph and left the floating palace.
"What the hell?"
After the messenger left, Odín quickly took off the golden boots on his feet and found a comfortable position to lie on the throne. "What's the point of pretending?"
"When you meet the messenger, your every word and action represents the dignity of the royal family.
Moreover, you are now the faith of the Holy See, the leader of the royal court, and the ruler of the empire. You should have an inviolable dignity. "
The big eyeball slowly floated out from the shadows. Its tone was respectful but not less strict. "This is also the queen's request for you."
"But I don't want to do these things at all."
Odín held his head in pain. "I just want to be a useless dragon. I want to eat and sleep every day. When I'm in a good mood, I will fulfill the two wishes in the divine light. When I'm in a bad mood, I will beat up Kahn."
"That's not good. The child of the Poison Fire Prince also has the name 'Tangerine'. You can't …"
"I know, I know." Odín curled his lips. "It's just a joke."
"…" Eyeball Corgi waved its tentacles and motioned for the Drakonid maids on both sides to pick up the princess' boots. It stared at them as they helped Odín put them on. "You still have to meet the ambassador of the Deep Sea Kingdom later."
Odín reluctantly stretched out her legs, and the maids skillfully helped her get dressed. A few more maids came and stood behind her, ready to help her tidy up her hair. When everything was ready, Odín felt as if she was shackled again. Everything around her became unpleasant to the eye. At this time, she just wanted to lie on the soft bed and eat the roasted lamb leg with iced summer dew.
Just as she thought of this, the big eyeball stretched out its tentacle and handed something over. It was a round metal can.
"The emissary won't be here for a while. You can drink some first, but you can't eat the leg of lamb now," Corgi said.
"Teacher, you actually used Mind Peeking on me?!"
Odín said with his eyes wide open in disbelief. He took the metal can, unscrewed the lid, and poured a mouthful of hot water into his mouth. "Oh … it's delicious."
"The queen once told me about your hobbies and ambitions."
There was a faint smile in Corgi's voice. "Of course, His Majesty also said something a long time ago. For example, you once went to his ranch to steal …"
"Okay, don't say anymore."
Odín hurriedly sat up straight and said in a serious tone, "The fewer people who know about this, the better."
"Actually, this time I'm here to ask for permission to go to the trading city," Corgi said after a moment of silence.
Odín was surprised. "The trading city is guarded by the lords of the court in turn."
"Yes, but after so many years, Gall and the others have been there more than once. It should be my turn to go.
Besides, the situation now is not optimistic, and the south needs the reinforcement of magic power. "
Corgi said, "Your Highness, now that your power is far beyond mine, I have nothing to teach you."
Odín was stunned for a few seconds and felt a little disappointed. She definitely did not like Corgi. Most of the time, she even felt that this guy was annoying, always watching her every word and action. When she was young, he always forced her to learn all kinds of nonsense. Odín had asked her mother more than once to get rid of this guy, but one day when she realized that she really did not need a teacher anymore, she could not help but feel a little empty in her heart.
After a pause, Odín composed herself and nodded in approval of the request. "If this is the result of the council's discussion, then go."
Looking at the sky outside the palace, she continued, "Speaking of which, I've never been to the south, and I'd like to see it."
"There will be a chance. When His Majesty wakes up, you can take off this heavy responsibility and do what you want for a long time," Corgi said.
"Father has never slept for so long. Will something happen?" Odín was a little worried.
"The Dragonmaw clan stationed there reported that the barrier is still stable," Corgi said.
Back then, Caesar's energy went berserk in order to smelt the divine fire and divine spark, causing an unprecedented catastrophe. At the same time, the boiling energy also broke through the spatial wall and formed a dimensional fault. Many years ago, the place where Emperor Black Dragon slept had been separated from the Airadia continent, leaving only a barrier similar to a spatial node in that area.
"Damn barrier." Odín could not help but say. The barrier was so strong that even she could not break it by force.
"The formation of the barrier should not be His Majesty's intention, but a protective measure made by the will of the plane to maintain stability. After all, the sleeping King Blackwing's energy disturbance is enough to destroy a kingdom."
As the Eye of God, Corgi had a lot of knowledge that was difficult for mortals to understand. "If it wasn't for the native species, His Majesty would have been expelled long ago."
"Mother is very worried. She mentioned to me more than once that she wants to build a small house there to stay," Odín muttered. "And if she continues to sleep like this, even Little Mother will be old."
"Bulonia is here." Corgi changed the topic. It was better not to interrupt.
Bulonia Tangerine, the daughter of Poison Fire Prince Garen and Blakesia. She learned her name from Odín and removed the initial characters, keeping only her first name and surname. This was Blakesia's idea. She claimed that this was to continue the tradition of the Tangerine family. Her other child with Garen, Kahn, was the same. Kahn Tangerine.
At this time, Odín was looking at Bulonia who was rolling on the ground and acting cute with a headache. "Bulonia, you're also a young dragon. How can you roll on the ground shamelessly? You're not a little guy anymore."
However, Bulonia turned a deaf ear to this. Her human form was a chubby little girl who was about five or six years old. At this moment, she was lying on her stomach and rolling in front of Odín. "I don't care, I don't care, I want it, I want it!"
"But I'm not in charge of the printing cards at all."
Odín looked at her helplessly. At the same time, he gritted his teeth. Speaking of which, he was only ten years older than Bulonia. Logically speaking, he should be at the age where he could roll around shamelessly. Why was he sitting on the throne now?
"Forget it."
Odín sighed. He took out a stack of cards from his dimensional pouch and carefully handed it to Bulonia. "These are the cards I've collected. Take them and play with them. Don't lose them."
After comforting Bulonia and sending her away, Odín suddenly frowned. For the first time, he put on a serious expression and looked at the emblem that only he could see. Then he slowly pulled out a glowing sphere with a slightly different color. "This is … the divine power from the Elegy card?
It seems that with this alone, one can achieve a divine position and create a god? "
