Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

After the head of the goblin CEO exploded like a watermelon…

The entire place fell into a dead silence.

Everyone wiped away the blood on their faces with trembling hands.

Nobody…

Nobody expected that.

The Prince of Haines, Rayne Haines, was crazy enough to crush the leader of Gold Village's head the moment he met the latter!

What was going on in the prince's mind?!

Looking at the corpse on the ground, the dwarves and goblins were secretly alarmed and terrified.

Of course, although everyone was afraid, no one felt sad for the death of the goblin CEO.

The Prince of Haines had indeed killed the person in charge of Gold Village by mistake.

However, due to the shockingly powerful faction that the Haines Empire was...

Everyone merely lowered their heads obediently and no one dared to say anything to this domineering and cold-blooded prince.

Now, here came the problem...

Right now, the prince was making a demand.

So, who exactly was the person in charge of Gold Village?

In the repressive dead silence, a few goblins' eyes lit up!

That was because they saw an opportunity!

Now that the person in charge was dead, if any of the higher-ups that were second only to him could turn the tides and resolve the problem, a new ruler of Gold Village would be born!

Furthermore, they would obtain the endorsement of the Prince of Haines!

Finally…

Under the temptation of power, a goblin in a top hat, suit and monocle walked to Rayne with his huge belly.

He said the perfect sentence that he came up with in a moment of desperation.

"Your Highness Rayne, in fact, you don't know. The person in charge of Gold Village…"

"Hela."

Piak!

Another goblin's head exploded tragically!

"You're still using goblins to tease me?"

Rayne's expression was dark as he grit his teeth in anger. "Let me tell you guys, there's a limit to my patience!"

Everyone fell into a dead silence once more.

The mysterious sound of water echoed through the dead air.

Someone was so scared that he peed his pants…

The goblins broke down internally.

This prince was way too ferocious!

He had killed another high-level big shot!

At that moment, the goblins finally understood the situation!

No matter the reason, as long as the next leader of Gold Village standing before the prince was still a goblin…

He would definitely die!

It was over!

The goblins were about to cry!

In order to overthrow the power of the dwarf kings, the goblins had already purged the upper echelons of Gold Village countless times in the past few hundred years.

All the stewards were replaced with goblins. The dwarves could only do manual labor and could not even be foremen.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for a dwarf leader to come from Gold Village!

So, what could they do?

Were they going to let this lunatic continue killing them?!

The despairing goblins looked towards White Vulture for help.

In the entire place, the only one with the ability to turn the situation around was the demigod with sharp ears and dragon eyes!

Although she was a wild demigod mercenary, White Vulture's combat strength was rather terrifying and far surpassed her peers.

Thanks to the secret flower ceremony left behind by their ancestors, the members of the Fiend Sword Sisterhood possessed the most mixed bloodline in the mortal world.

At the same time, their demigods gathered the most divinity in the mortal world.

This was starkly different from demigods of a single country that relied on possessing the purest bloodline and a single lineage of divinity.

The demigods of the Fiend Sword Sisterhood took a completely different path.

It was a path that was completely foreign and incomprehensible for demigods that belonged to a country.

These were high-end mixed breeds!

Logically speaking, White Vulture should have the ability to go against the Imperial Guards of Haines!

Furthermore!

White Vulture was not the only demigod in the entire Fiend Sword Sisterhood!

However, at this critical moment, White Vulture disconnected.

That was because White Vulture was dumbfounded as well.

Or rather, she was at a loss.

Her employer had been killed.

In that case, should she continue to serve Gold Village?

Logically speaking, the contract between White Vulture and Gold Village still existed. As long as she continued to work for Gold Village, she would be paid handsomely.

However, the problem was…

Who would dare to offend Rayne Haines at this moment?!

The reason Prince Rayne used to kill seemed as though he was joking.

However, the threat he laid down was not a joke at all!

Although White Vulture was not familiar with the rules of the Haines Empire, she was clear about one thing!

If Prince Rayne were to use some privileges to change the threat level of Gold Village to a red name…

In that case…

Histia, the strongest demigod who dealt with extreme threats and maintained the basic order of the mortal world all year round would...

Truly come...

And burn Gold Village to the ground!

At the end of the day, the Haines Empire was still the strongest Empire in this land!

Was White Vulture truly prepared to challenge them?

Furthermore, at the same time...

White Vulture watched every single move of Prince Rayne nervously. Unknowingly, she caught sight of his face and those beautiful eyes...

That had her blushing.

Wait a minute...

Speaking of which, wasn't Prince Rayne the brother of Edaline?

In that case, his blood must be extremely pure and precious.

Furthermore, the prince's face was unprecedentedly special!

White Vulture could say without any guilt.

Prince Rayne… was the most handsome man she had ever seen.

Unknowingly, White Vulture revealed an infatuated smile and felt even more restless internally…

Damn it…

She really wanted to have a secret flower ceremony with him that was comparable to the level of wild beasts!

"Ahhh, my head! My head's splitting open!"

Wait, why was another one dead?!

While White Vulture was in a daze...

Another goblin's head was ruptured by Hela.

Rayne hollered, "Why aren't you guys saying anything? Are you guys still trying to tease me? Do you really think so lowly of your lives? Are you bent on creating trouble for me even at the cost of your lives?!"

The goblins were scared out of their wits and had a mental breakdown.

In that dead silence…

Finally, the goblins came to their senses and with trembling hands, pulled a dwarf miner at the outer perimeter of the crowd to Rayne.

The mouths of the goblins trembled continuously. "Your Highness… h-he… is…"

"Oh!"

Rayne was enlightened and smiled.

"So, you're the leader of Gold Village. Nice to meet you!"

Rayne's anger dissipated completely as he shook hands with the dwarf warmly.

"You've got to deal with this group of goblins properly later on. They can't joke around with foreign guests like this, right?"

The dwarf miner was dumbfounded and did not know what to say.

Thereafter, Rayne spoke up for him.

"I'm sure you want to ask why I came to Gold Village, right?"

Rayne was still smiling as he said to the dwarf miner, "I'm a little tired today. Arrange a room for me to rest first. We'll discuss everything else tomorrow."

Just like that…

The negotiation between Rayne and Gold Village was over.

The outcome of the negotiation was that three high-level officials of Gold Village died and a dwarf miner who knew nothing became the theoretical person in charge.

At that point…

Gold Village fell into complete chaos.

Coupled with the problem of the corruption of the Nether Realm in Gold Village, countless dwarves escaped from Gold Village in groups that night.

Some gossip spread along with the dwarves who escaped.

With that, Rayne's initial plan was accomplished.

Naturally, he knew who the masterminds behind Gold Village were and was also clear about the current situation.

However…

There were some things that he could pretend not to know.

According to Rayne's past experience, the goblin in charge was cunning and unscrupulous—he was an extremely annoying fellow.

He could save some trouble by killing this fella in advance.

As for whether the dwarves would seek revenge after Rayne caused such a huge ruckus in Gold Village…

Ha!

As someone who had already seen through the outcomes of Gold Village, Rayne knew very well.

In two weeks at most, there would no longer be any dwarf in the entire mortal world who would have the leisure to care about the life and death of a goblin.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Did our performance this time round satisfy you?"

After the situation calmed down, Rayne walked towards the guest room prepared for the VIPs in Gold Village under the lead of the dwarves.

Along the way, the puppets popped out of the dimensional rift impatiently to seek rewards from Rayne.

Rayne smiled. "You guys did well."

The puppets blushed and asked expectantly, "Your Highness, can you… give us some more rewards?"

"You guys, we're not at home…"

Rayne revealed a doting smile. "But alright, come to my room today. I'll teach you guys how to operate the divinity of Life."

At the same time, Hela who was behind Rayne looked at the puppets and Rayne, wanting to speak but stopped.

Unlike the previous crusade against Obadiah, Hela had faithfully completed Rayne's mission today.

In that case…

An unrealistic expectation rose in Hela's heart.

Perhaps... Rayne would give her a reward as well, the same way he was treating the puppets?

Naturally, Rayne had not forgotten about Hela.

After sending away the puppets, Rayne walked to Hela's side.

"Thank you, Your Excellency Hela."

Rayne said sincerely.

"Thank you for being willing to carry out my orders. If not for your help, I would definitely not have been able to suppress those goblins. Right now, I can't pay you any actual rewards. Therefore, I can only express my gratitude to you with words. I'm truly ashamed…"

Rayne's words moved Hela once more.

A touched smile appeared on Hela's face as she consoled Rayne gently.

"No, please don't say that, Your Highness Rayne. Didn't I say? I'm willing to serve you. All you have to do is accept my loyalty calmly."

Rayne's expression changed. "Hela…"

Hela's eyes were filled with emotions. "Your Highness…"

Rayne: "Alright, I'll take the puppets to tuition class then. Good night!"

Hela: "???"

After expressing his gratitude to Hela, Rayne was proceeding to thank the puppets with practical actions.

Finally, in order to facilitate the tuition class, Rayne shared a bedroom with the puppets.

While... Hela slept next door.
