Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 1050 283: Butterflies Ultimately Cannot Cross the Sea of Stars (10K)

Kael nodded and said, "Hmm, the Governor over there has some arrangements for me. I need to go there to handle some matters."

"Can I go with you?"

Elanna lightly tugged at Kael's sleeve. The expression in her eyes made it impossible for Kael to refuse.

Later on, Elanna followed Kael to the Royal Capital.

After tidying up a bit and packing some of Olivia's belongings, Elanna's face was covered with a bit of dust, and she didn't even have time to wash it off. She slowly closed her eyes to rest in the corner on a sofa.

Perhaps due to the impact of her injuries and fever, her physical condition hadn't recovered. Although she only intended to take a short nap, it wasn't long before she fell into a quiet slumber.

Kael cast a magic trick to clean the dirt off the sleeping Elanna, then took a blanket from his space equipment and draped it over her.

Elanna sniffled, as if having a nightmare, murmuring, "Teacher..."

Kael shook his head, saying nothing more.

Olivia's voluntary step towards death was actually a result of her own choice.

Regarding this, Kael was very clear.

Even back when he used healing magic on Olivia, he understood that, for Olivia at that time, her immense magical power had become a burden on her frail body.

Her ravaged body was no longer capable of being the vessel for such power, and Olivia obviously didn't want her power to go to waste.

She wanted this power, which had grown so strong that she could no longer wield it, to be passed down to her student.

Even without this incident, as long as Elanna was mentally prepared, she would still proceed with the Dragon Blood Ceremony.

Of course, this cunning woman had hidden many things.

That is, if she retained her strength, Olivia's body would first fail, gradually becoming paralyzed, and ultimately die in some unknown lonely night.

If Olivia transferred all this power to Elanna's body through the Dragon Blood Ceremony, losing the support of the source of Transcendent power, she would quickly face a crisis of her lifespan.

Moreover, Kael suspected that Olivia's injuries were exacerbated and directly related to the battle to stop the chosen one in Gransham Territory.

In other words, any outcome would be a heavy blow to Elanna, who had been Olivia's student for years.

He couldn't hypocritically tell Elanna to relax and not to think too much, only lending her this thin shoulder to lean on.

The next time...

No, there won't be a next time.

A fierce glint flashed deep in Kael's eyes. He would remember what happened this time.

The God of ice was, indeed, one of the Four Gods Olivia had mentioned.

It's all the same in the end, anyway. He has everything written down in his little notebook now.

It's best not to give him a chance...

No, if there's no chance, he'll create one himself.

Just as he thought this, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the door.

Kael stood up and went down, seeing the Caesar Governor, whom he had seen once before through the Communication Crystal, wearing a thin long shirt. You could vaguely see the strong muscles on his body.

Upon seeing Kael, he spoke to himself, "How's the packing going?"

Kael spread his hands and said, "Since I met her, she's been pretty much like this, always with a bottle of wine in her hand. Given her strength, unless it's Divine Wine brewed by the Wine God, it's highly unlikely she'd get drunk.

Yet she drinks every day, and just cleaning up the wine bottles in her room takes quite some time."

Caesar didn't find it strange, nodded, and sat down on the front steps of the apartment, patting the somewhat dirty ground, and said:

"Sit down; this is our first official meeting."

Kael walked over and sat down, saying, "Now you don't really look like a Governor."

Caesar shook his head and said, "No one is born a Governor."

"But for many people, you're almost like a born Governor now, right? After all, the lifetime of an ordinary person is but a moment in the span of your existence."

Caesar shook his head, "Before you know it, so much time has passed."

He crouched on the castle steps, taking big drags of his cigarette, looking out at the rising red sun on the distant sea, murmuring:

"During the toughest times at the start of the Bell Federation, my obedient daughter once asked if I wanted to leave the Bell Federation behind and run away with her, far away, so we wouldn't have to endure this hardship."

Did something like this happen before?

Kael was a bit surprised but thought about it and realized that it was indeed something Olivia's character might have done.

He said, "But you chose to stay."

Caesar nodded and said, "Yes, I chose to stay."

"Do you regret it?"

"I feel conflicted but no regrets. I'm not a good father because I still carry the dreams and expectations of so many people in the Bell Federation. If I left, what would happen to them?"

Kael sighed and said, "That's why we're not the same; for me, as long as the people I care about are doing well, that's enough. As for righteousness... it depends on my mood."
