Chapter 228: Goddess Selene Invites Lily (3k)

The mighty blood clan castles all headed towards the Seven Hills.

This made many outsiders who were still in Qiqiu nervous.

They feared that war would break out again in the Seven Hills.

Because they are not as well-informed as others, they are just a group of ordinary people.

Fortunately, they soon discovered that the dwarves were not nervous at all. Instead, they were very excited and made preparations as if to welcome them.

What does it mean?
When did dwarves and vampires become so friendly?

King Turin and the Moon King both died long ago!

Out of curiosity, someone stopped a dwarf soldier who was passing by:

"Hey man, can we please tell me what's going on?"

"Ah, the Moon King is back, the dwarf's friend is back!"

After the dwarf who was held back said this, he quickly left the place, leaving behind only a group of passers-by who were gradually becoming disheveled in the wind.

After a long time, they looked at each other in disbelief.

What the hell? The Moon King is back?

Didn't He die long ago?

How come he came back without any movement?
Passersby found it hard to believe that a supreme being could return so easily, but when they thought of the dark moon that had driven away the daylight, they felt that this was logical.

But what on earth happened?
First, Saint Constantine reappeared in Baratheon, and then Duke Trajan, who was famous twenty years ago, also came back.

And now, the hero Moon King who ended two eras has returned.

Is something big going to happen soon?
Otherwise, why do these ancient beings come back one after another?
Although it was a good thing for the Seven Hills that war would not break out again, the occurrence of various rare events one after another made them, ordinary people who had just witnessed what the gods were doing, more and more worried.

The vampires' moving castles were all docked in the sky outside the iron gate.

Greeted by many dwarves, Morn brought Selene to the iron gate.

To be honest, this was the first time that Morn had stared at the iron gate up close.

Even in the game, he just watched his best friend leave this in the end.

And last time, after stabilizing the situation, he also did not come over to take a look.

Moon withdrew his gaze, and Selene, who had been holding his arm and was unwilling to let go, took the initiative to let go of his hand.

He then walked forward amid the dwarves' surprised looks.

The leading dwarf elder was the one who wanted to speak.

He was shocked to see the goddess bowing towards him and apologizing.

This made all the dwarves scream and move away.

They didn't understand why the goddess acted this way.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

The dodged dwarf elder asked in surprise.

The goddess Selene lowered her head and said:
"I am the last witness of our friendship. I should also be the guardian of this friendship. I am sorry that I have been absent until now."

The dwarves were silent for a while, and the vampires lowered their heads one after another.

The friendship between the dwarves and the vampires was still remembered by the dwarves after the two kings left. Every year they would send envoys to visit the vampires scattered around the world.

But the vampires gradually became arrogant and chose to ignore it.

Because they felt that this was the dwarf trying to get close to them.

After that, the dwarves stopped coming.

The friendship between the two races began with the two kings and was severed after the departure of the two kings. Now, although only one king has returned, the friendship between the two races that had been severed for countless years has finally been restored.

In response to the goddess' apology, Morn walked up to the goddess a moment later and bowed to the dwarves in front of him:
"I'm also very sorry that I came back just now and I was unable to fulfill my friend's request!"

In response, after their initial surprise, the dwarves bowed in return and said:
"Your Majesties, the fact that you two are able to come back is enough for us!"

The dwarves had no right to blame the two supreme beings, not even the goddess Selene, because everyone knew that if a god lost his queen, it was almost the same as death.

Or it could be said that a god who loses his king is worse off dead.

So the dwarves never thought that the absence of the goddess Selene was a problem, she was already suffering greatly.

They didn't even feel anything about their alienation from the vampires.

The friendship between the two tribes is actually the friendship between two kings.

They are well aware of this.

After realizing this, Moon smiled with relief and pulled up his Selene.

"Thank you."

"Your Majesty, the great Vlad, let's not talk about this now. Let's go in quickly. Everyone is waiting for you!"

With the dwarves lining the streets to welcome him, Morn finally brought Selene into the Seven Hills.

Having heard that two supreme beings were visiting, Moon not only saw the residents of the Seven Hills coming to pay homage and worship.

He also saw many airships coming from all directions.

Obviously, those who were well-informed sent messengers as soon as possible.

In response, Moon just smiled helplessly.

It was like this before, it is like this now, and it will continue to be like this in the future.

Because what is being welcomed is the Supreme and not anything else.

So when Morn came with Selene, both the dwarf soldiers responsible for maintaining order and the residents of the Seven Hills on both sides knelt down and saluted.

There was no cheering, no chaos, only quiet and pious worship.

And the grandeur that contrasts sharply with this quietness.

However, as Morn led Selene forward, he saw a beautiful figure in red at the end of the road.

The other party had obviously just learned the news and hurriedly ran through the crowd and rushed here on the street.

So the bright red dress fell down slowly in the mist.

She was still wearing the same red evening dress she had worn last night, but this time, she finally brought along the moon-white longbow that she had not been able to pick up since she brought the Seven Hills.

In the silent worship of countless people.

Lily and Moen finally met eyes.

Although she had known this for a long time, it was only after she saw that he was safe and sound that Ms. Lily finally smiled with relief.

She raised the corners of her mouth, lifted her skirt, and bowed gracefully.

The bright red dress began to flutter in the wind.

At this moment, she was the only one who could rival the goddess' brilliance.

In response, Moon also smiled knowingly and returned the greeting from afar.

Lily and Moon both thought that their meeting was just a small episode and would end there.

But Selene, who had been holding Moon's arm, looked at the elf girl carefully.

As she and Morn reached each other, Selene paused.

He extended his hand to Lily who was about to kneel down and salute.

"My husband has never chosen a courtier, nor has he ever been so close to another girl, so, little one from the elves, tell me your name."

As Lily and Moon were equally stunned, Selene extended her hand and said with a smile:

"And please stand behind me."

The gap between mortals and goddesses is too big, so the goddess doesn't care at all what the other party thinks.

All she needed to know was that this was the only girl her husband was so close to besides herself.

Her identity as an elf? It doesn't matter.

She might take away her husband's love? Nonsense.

The goddess only wanted to help her husband get her into his lap.

So Lily only felt the goddess' kindness and the admiration of the crowd.

Although the other party is a noble elf, and judging from the length of his ears, he is an even rarer and more noble high elf.

But how can that compare to serving the king?

Looking at the goddess's hand extending to her, Lily knew that as long as she was willing to hold it, she might directly enter the top of this world. No, she might directly enter the top of two worlds.

He became a noble person that other time travelers could only look up to throughout their lives.

Besides, isn't this what you want?
There is a huge gap between mortals and kings, but so what?
She wanted to follow that gentle person, that was enough!

Subconsciously, Lily raised her hand.

Moon, who had been watching silently, had his brows twitching.

Ansha's hair ring was still hidden on her chest, and Lily was carrying the longbow she gave to Roselorian on her back!

God knows what will happen in a moment.

So what should I do?
Hug Selene and kiss her again in public?
That's not right. What about Ms. Lily?
And why, lady, do you really look like you want to say yes?!

After a brief moment of shock, Moon recalled it carefully and felt puzzled.

Wasn't the charm from bloodsucking lifted?
So why would you, a chosen one of the elves, want to accept the invitation from the Outer Gods?

In Morn's rapid thinking and the goddess's kind waiting.

Lily, who had already raised her hand, suddenly looked at Moon.

After a moment, Lily withdrew her hand, lifted her skirt and saluted:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my refusal, because I cannot promise you. As for my name, my name is Lily, Your Majesty."

Although the other party rejected her, the goddess Selene was not angry.

She just looked at the elf girl in front of her with more curiosity.

For the first time, the crowd let out a small cry of surprise.

Why did you refuse?
It was obvious that if this girl accepted the offer, she would directly rise to the top of the world and might even become a princess in the future.

"Why do you refuse? Aren't you my husband's courtier?"

The goddess's gaze fell on the moon-white longbow that Lily was carrying out of curiosity.

After staring for a moment, the goddess understood.

He actually drank the Holy Water of Peace. No wonder I didn’t notice him at first glance. He is the Chosen One, the follower of the Shadow Sun.

This is not surprising. As she is already a favored one of the gods, it is indeed difficult for her to agree to me.

But what's the problem?

The great-granddaughter of the Golden Flower Lord can marry an ordinary, unknown dwarf.

The followers of the Shadow Sun naturally also have the choice to pursue their own lives. After all, the girl really wants to agree.

It’s really not possible now, but later, it seems that I have to go to the Sacred Tree Forest.

Ask for Lily, the gift from the Shadow Sun, and give it to your king.

The recent itinerary has been arranged by the goddess.

If I just drank the holy water of rest, it was made with my husband's blood?
The Moon Goddess became more and more interested in the elf in front of her.

She took back her hand and said with a smile:

"I understand. I respect your choice, Lily, right? I'll remember that we will meet again in the future, little one!"
