Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Rayne's suggestion shocked Hela completely.

Hela was dumbfounded as she looked at Rayne without saying anything.

The elimination of the immortality of an ancient dragon made hunting an ancient dragon possible.

This was something unimaginable in the mortal world.

As an ancient and rare race, due to their long lifespans, every single ancient dragon occupied an extremely important position in their society.

The loss of every single ancient dragon would shock the entire race.

Coupled with the fact that they were protected by an incomparably powerful god…

The eventual outcome was that after Olivia advanced to become an evil god, she gave everyone in her race an immortal body with a wave of her hand.

As long as Olivia was not injured, the entire ancient dragon race would be able to share her eternal glory.

At that moment, Hela was shocked at the generosity of the evil dragon, Olivia, to be willing to sacrifice a comrade to strike a deal with Rayne.

She did not dare to imagine how big of a deal this lad had committed to the evil dragon...

However, as a beneficiary, Hela decided to ignore that.

Of course, what Hela did not know was that Rayne had practically taken advantage of the Ancient Dragon Princess for free.

When Rayne signed the contract with Olivia, one of the hidden benefits that he had expected was the chance to loot a few lairs of the ancient dragons.

And now, Rayne decided to use an ancient dragon's lair to upgrade Constance's equipment. At the same time, he would give the remaining trash to Hela to curry favor with her.

Rayne was not willing to let Constance complete the mission to suppress the ancient dragon.

Right now, the quality of Constance's equipment was poor. Furthermore, it was not yet time to unlock many of her cheats. As such, it would be difficult for her to deal with the ancient dragon.

However, Hela, this orthodox Imperial Guard, had been extorting and looting everywhere like a diligent bee ever since she took over the position. Eventually, everything was exchanged for high-quality equipment that suited her style.

Her equipment set had long been formed and she was a perfect human tool.

However, even for Hela who was fully equipped, she could only force a smile in the face of a mission to suppress an ancient dragon.

Hela was in disbelief—did His Highness Rayne think that… she alone could take down an ancient dragon?

Wasn't he thinking too highly of her?

In theory, the Imperial Guards were the ceiling of any conflicts in the mortal world.

However, there were still countless apocalyptic existences in the mortal world.

The elf quasigods and ancient dragons were part of them.

However, the problem was that although they were strong, they would not pose any threat to humans for some reason.

If one were to take a look at how badly the elves were scammed by their own gods, the danger of attracting other hostile mythical creatures would be obvious.

As for the other mythical creatures that filled the secluded corners of the mortal world, they coincidentally ignored the existence of most civilizations and would not clash with them.

Although they existed there, for various reasons, they unanimously avoided civilized countries and lived their lives isolated from the world.

It was as though all the coincidences were deliberately arranged by someone.

In reality, it was true.

The balance of the mortal world had been adjusted by Order singlehandedly.

In fact, the quasigods were personally created by Order.

In order to suppress the elves, she allowed this noble race with the highest chance of unifying the mortal world to fall into a desperate situation where they were hunted by their own gods.

That was also the reason why humans had the opportunity to rise.

Support, suppression, restraint and destruction. Under the will of the Crystal Goddess, the mortal world became chaotic but orderly. The flames of war raged but it was filled with vitality.

All life and death eventually formed this endless mortal world.

As a goddess, Order was not only dedicated, she was extremely professional as well.

Because of that, as the daughters of the Goddess of Order, theoretically speaking, the Imperial Guards should not break the ecological balance meticulously set up by Order and attack those harmless mythical creatures rashly.

However…

With money on the line, who the hell would care about that?!

After a moment of mental struggle, Hela quickly thought things through.

She asked, "So, Your Highness, you hope that I'll be the one to destroy the ancient dragon before we split its belongings?"

Rayne answered, "What do you think about it?"

"This can't be called a gift, Your Highness,"

Hela chuckled. "This is your reward for me."

She approached Rayne with a smile and held his hand intimately, saying solemnly, "As your loyal Imperial Guard, it's my greatest honor to serve the future Emperor!"
