The Subila Kingdom, as the capital of the former empire, possessed a well-developed economy and trade. Even if its former dominion was now divided, it had a good relationship with the Dragon Kingdom and traded with it frequently, allowing the country to maintain prosperity.

As the former capital, it also possessed magnificent and well-developed infrastructure. In the west of the continent, it was still the strongest country in terms of military power.

Carriages moved back and forth in the streets of the capital. Patrolling soldiers in armor would weave in and out of the streets to maintain the safety of the capital. Although the capital looked a bit old because it was founded thousands of years ago, the vicissitudes of history came to the fore, especially with the thick walls built over a thousand years and the defensive magic formations that spanned the entire city. It could be said that on the main continent, not even Dragon Citys defenses could match up. The only city that could be superior in defense would be the Silver Moon Kingdom which the Silver Moon Goddess defended for ten thousand years.

In the throngs of the crowded streets, a handful of individuals looked up just in time to see a sharp glint appear in the distant sky. The little dot grew in size and intensity until onlookers recognized it as a silver dragon. Nonetheless, no one panicked as this was a normal occurrence.

Her Highness has returned.

Two stall owners in adjacent stalls tilted their heads to look at the sky and chatted idly.

I wonder what important matters need to be done by Her Highness for her to go personally.

Another peddler chimed in.

Aurora was very popular in the Subila Kingdom. Her mother, Andrea, was a capable propagandist. Andrea was able to hide her true self for decades, always presenting herself as a beautiful angel. This went to show how much she cared about the opinion of the people.

Although there were still rumors going around that Queen Andrea was the one who killed the old king, twenty years had already passed, and her rule was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Under her efforts, the economy of the Subila Kingdom became more and more prosperous. These old stories gradually sank into the background and became points of discussion for historians.

After the matter with the bronze dragon was resolved, Aurora and Agnes returned to report to the church instead of the palace.

This church was the branch of the Dragon God Church in the Subila Kingdom. It was also its main headquarters in the west of the continent. The land that was about as big as the royal palace was fully owned by the church. From time to time, one could see devout believers coming here to worship.

Although Aurora was called the Holy Maiden, in front of her God, she still had to maintain humility. She and Anges did not directly fly into the church's backyard and instead landed in front of the complex. At the same time, Anges used Ultimate Transformation to turn from her dragon form into a beautiful silver-haired girl.

The believers around were very familiar with Aurora and Agnes. After seeing the two of them, they greeted them with respect. Some devotees even kneeled on the ground and chanted praises to the Dragon God upon seeing them.

Auroras expression turned gentle as she greeted the disciples. Her holy smile was like a true saint, gaining the longing of the people.

Once she entered the church to a place where no one could see, Aurora lightly bit her lips. Her brilliant pupils flashed with a ray of indescribable resistance.

Everything she had was given by the Father God whom she had never met.

Thats right, all of it.

Her talent, her current power, her status as a princess, her status as a holy maiden, her pretty body, her beautiful face, and even her friendship with Agnes were all things given to her by being part of the Dragon God bloodline.

Aurora knew that if she did not have this part of the Dragon God bloodline, no proud silver dragon would care about a human like her.

What was more tragic was that Aurora could sometimes feel that even her mothers love was all because of her Father God. The reason why her mother gave her such freedom and unparalleled love was not because she was the princess of her daughter, but simply because she was the child of the Dragon God.

When she sometimes thought about this, Aurora felt a pang of sadness because from birth she lived under the shadow of the Dragon God. Her life had long been set.

Do not worry yourself, Aurora! This is the blessing that my Lord has given you, and you should accept it as a matter of course and be grateful to the gods This is the love of my Lord, the love of the gods that we, the believers desire and extravagantly ask for.

You should not have a rebellious heart, for my Lord truly loves you, for you are a child given to us by the Lord.

Just as Aurora was rambling, a warm mature voice came from the innermost part of the church.

Aurora looked up and saw a man in simple robes from the back of the church. He looked to be in his forties and his side temples were white. His whole person was elegant and gentle, but deep in his eyes brewed with a trace of murder and ruthlessness.

He was Bazel who became the archbishop of the western branch of the church twenty years ago. Because he became the archbishop, Bazel had to hold back his gloom and took on a benevolent mien, but people familiar with him knew how ruthless this man who once led the Inquisition was.

Archbishop Bazel!

Seeing Bazel, Aurora hurriedly bowed.

If Aurora had to say who she respected the most, other than her Father God who sat on his throne high up, there was her mother Andrea, and this archbishop. It could be said that she grew up under their care.

Archbishop, about the sudden arrival of that dragon

Its all a small matter.

When Aurora was about to make her report, Bazel just shook his hand to stop her, It's just a dragon. There is nothing that needs special attention. I only sent you over there as a formality.

Bazels tone was calm and contained no concern for the adult dragon.

The gods who have chosen ones were generally med or high-tier gods. Mid-tier gods would possess one chosen one while high-tier gods would possess three. Now, the Dragon God Louie was a mid-tier god and his chosen one was the pope, but the people knew that as long as he reached a greater power, Bazel would certainly become the second chosen one of the Dragon God.

At that time, Bazel would be able to obtain the blessing of the Dragon God and become a demigod. It must be known that a demigod with the backing of a powerful god was the strongest existence on the main continent. It was for this reason that Bazel had the confidence to face off against the strongest powerhouse.

Likewise, it was because he had the qualifications to become a chosen one that Agnes, who was a dragon, maintained respect for him and followed behind Aurora without uttering a word.

Her Majesty Alexia has sent another invitation this time and wishes for Aurora to make a trip to Dragon City.

Bazel took out a letter and handed it to Aurora. This was not the first time Alexia had sent such an invitation. She sent it several times when Aurora was still a child, but it had all been rejected by Aurora for various reasons.

Just when Aurora was thinking of a reason to refuse this time, Bazel continued, I suggest that you go to Dragon City, Aurora! A big reason why the Subila Kingdom is so prosperous today is because of trade with the Dragon Kingdom.

Even if you dont have a sisterly bond with Her Majesty Alexia, you, as the princess of the Subila Kingdom, should prioritize the welfare of the nation.

Bazels one sentence completely swayed Aurora. His next sentence was finally the one that Aurora could no longer ignore.

Besides, this time, you might be able to meet the person you want to see the most, Aurora!

Archbishop Bazel seemed to have many unknown secrets hidden in his eyes. After saying these words, he just kneeled down in front of the statute of the Dragon God and prayed in a pious manner.
