Chapter 4626
That would not do!
Darryl calmed down quickly enough. He was there to get intel, not pretend to be Master Magaera and canoodle with Empress Heidi.
Darryl put on his best imitation of Master Magaera's voice and asked, "Your Majesty, did you say you wanted to incorporate the Ancient Ancestor's fairy soul with your own?"
Yes!
Empress Heidi did not think that there was anything wrong with the Master Magaera in front of her. She nodded without hesitation. "I thought about it the whole day. I really did.
'I'm only doing that to prevent Lute Belle from trying anything. Think about it! She's an otherworldly god, and she's incredibly powerful. What am I going to do if she insists on making Aurin the Emperor? This is the best solution; I have to make myself as powerful as possible.'
Empress Heidi's speech was slurred slightly from drunkenness, but her tone sounded determined.
Darryl let out a soft breath, attempting to coax her out of it. "I understand where you're coming from, Your Majesty, but have you thought about the consequences? How would the people look at you if they found out what you did?" "After all, the Ancient Ancestor is the late Emperor's master. It's the same as harming your own master. How will you make the people listen to you if you do that, even if Auten becomes the Emperor?
'Also, Lute Belle will make a big deal out of that. It’s too big of a risk, Your Majesty!"
Darryl spoke in Master Magaera's voice, but the thoughts were his own.
The Godly Region relied heavily on the Ancient Ancestor, after all. How could Empress Heidi destroy him like that?
Well...
Empress Heidi’s eyebrows furrowed as she fell into deep thought.
Seeing her hesitation, Darryl pounced on the opportunity. He continued to say, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'll do my best to make Auten the Emperor.' "Alright!”
Empress Heidi was overwhelmed with emotion; she sighed with a smile.' I'll listen to you. I will not do that."
Relief washed over Darryl instantly. Thank goodness. His presence there was not a waste of time after all.
