The entire empire had fallen apart under the power of various churches. Countless lords had declared their independence and broken away from the rule of the Subila Empire. As a result, it had been split into several kingdoms that waged wars of domination against each other.

However, anyone with little wisdom would know that rebuilding a unified empire was no longer possible unless the gods were to fall asleep once more. The gods would never allow humans to create a unified empire, as that would undermine their authority.

Kings must always serve the gods.

The Theocracy was also placed in a similar tragedy as the Empire. The Theocracy had been at war with the Empire, but nobody expected that the revival of the gods not only ended their war, it also ended their countries. Now, the once strongest countries had been split up, resulting in chaos engulfing the west of the continent. On the other hand, the eastern kingdoms that had united to confront the Empire were relatively peaceful.

The Subila Empire was now only left with the imperial capital and the surrounding lands, becoming one of the many kingdoms. However, the imperial family had all gathered there. As the core of the former empire, the capital could be called the most prosperous place in the entire Subila Empire. It could be said that after the Subila Empire split apart, the most powerful kingdom was still the Subila Kingdom.

In the Subila Palace, Her Highness Princess Andrea sat quietly in front of the dressing table in her own bedchamber as she gazed at her own reflection in the mirror.

She wore a white gown that accentuated her exquisite figure. Her skin was as white as snow. Even if she was now in her twenties, there were no signs of aging at all.

Princess Andrea ran her hand through her golden hair. Her pale eyebrows knitted together but her smile remained unchanged. She still appeared innocent as if she was not troubled by the big changes that happened to the Empire.

However, no one knew what this pure and angel-like young woman was thinking deep in her heart nor how complicated her thoughts were.

Sigh

Andrea sighed. Her frown was something that could garner peoples sympathy, making them wish they could embrace her and tell her that everything was okay.

Soon, Andrea calmed her expression. This was her bedchamber, but there were also maids inside. Although Andrea was confident that these maids were loyal to her and would never reveal her secrets, she still had to be careful and not let others have any doubts about her.

Her disguise as a naive young woman was a good one. Now was not the time to tear it off.

Just when Andrea was worried about the situation, her expression changed and her mouth hung open. Very quickly, she became happy and ordered her maids, Everyone go back, let me rest alone for a while.

Yes, Your Highness!

They mowed politely and lowered their heads without daring to look at Andrea as they retreated.

When there was no one left in the bedchamber, Alexia was so happy that she hummed the Subilan anthem and stood up from her dressing table as she danced like a graceful butterfly. Even if there was no one to witness it, she still danced elegantly and delicately.

No, there was actually one person in here. Who knows when, but a young man appeared in Andreas room.

The man appeared to only be around twenty years old, but his calm and mysterious aura prevented anyone from guessing his true age. He had black hair and black eyes. It was a rare color in the world of San Soliel. This time, the man sat on the princess bed and watched the princess dance with interest.

After a while, Andrea stopped dancing and her forehead was covered with sweat. The corner of her eyes let out a light charm that was like the delight at the arrival of spring. Although her eyes looked very seductive, her expression remained innocent. These contradictory characteristics fused together, giving Andrea a unique temperament.

Thinking about Andreas orders to have her maids back away, anyone would think that she was secretly meeting with a lover.

However, the person she met was not a lover, but a true god!

Good day, Your Highness, the great Dragon God Galakrond. I didnt expect that you would come to the Subila Empire in person!

Princess Andrea curtsied and spoke with a delighted and respectful tone.

You have done a good job with the previous task, I am just returning the favor. Since you have come to find me, then I would not mind gracing you with my presence for a bit.

In front of Andrea was none other than one of Louies incarnations.

For the gods, there was no place in the world where they could not go unless it was another gods divine kingdom or locations protected heavily by the gods. Coming to a heavily guarded palace was as easy for him as going home.

The task Andrea had completed was her sending of the beastmen to Dragon City. Not only could those beastmen serve as the basis for the citys development, but male beastmen were excellent soldiers for the army. Even the beastmen kingdom treated them as excellent soldiers, so they could be said to be equivalent to the former Subila Empires savings.

It was also these beastmen warriors that allowed Dragon City to have enough strength to occupy Selar and Danbusil.

As a true god, you are able to descend and come see me personally. Andrea is terrified.

Andrea still continued respectfully. There was nothing wrong with being respectful in the face of a true god, not to mention that Andrea was going to make a request to Louie.

Louie did not deny Andreas compliments, but calmly said, Speak your purpose, Andrea! Although gods are immortal and time would never intrude upon our bodies, I do not want to waste time on useless things.

Hearing Louies straightforward words, Andrea took a deep breath. In truth, she also did not want to beat around the bush.

Andrea opened her mouth and said, I need your help, Your Highness Louie!

What do you want me to help you with?

I want you to help me obtain kingship of the Subila Kingdom as well as something important.

Andrea strongly suppressed her excitement. Her innocent and beautiful face suddenly became frenzied and ambitious.

This was the first time Louie saw this innocent princess have a change of depression. He carefully gazed at Andrea for a long time before saying, State your offer!

I am willing to carry your child so that yours and my child can become the heir of the Subila Kingdom!

Andrea, as if carrying infinite shyness, lowered her head. Her slender white fingers pinched at the corner of her skirts. Her slightly red cheeks made her look drunk but had a strong impact on others.
