Chapter 352: 352

Individuals from children to young adults flocked through the doors of the tower. Unlike many of the magical establishments on the main continent, the average ages of the people here were significantly low. And only official Dragon City mages were counted among their numbers. The tower itself had been constructed by Noella and handed over to Marches.

Louie walked into the tower with Alexia, causing a stir among the mages present. After all, how could any of them be unaware about their lord? These apprentices and mages were filled with excitement when they saw Louie and respectfully greeted, “Your Highness Louie, Lady Alexia!”

The interior of the brightly lit mage tower went quiet. Pairs of eyes turned to Louie and Alexia as people stopped whatever they were doing and expressed their admiration of their lord and future queen.

A mage peeked at Alexia, the child of their lord. Everyone in Dragon City was curious. They were aware of Alexia’s existence, but only a few people had seen her.

Although the little elf dragon maiden was young and tender, she was already a charming beauty. Both men and women were inwardly moved upon seeing her. Powerful emotions surged in their hearts, and they secretly exclaimed that she was truly worthy of being a child of gods. Her glowing brilliance was unlike ordinary elves. Everyone was dazzled and captivated by her charms.

“Humph!”

Alexia grunted, feeling unhappy about the human gazes. Although there was no malice in their gaze, her arrogance as a dragon and an elf made her treat these humans indifferently. If Louie had not taught her to treat her people well, Alexia would probably become angry.

Dragons were never benign species.

A faint dragon’s might pervaded the air, causing the surrounding mages to feel numb to the scalp and break out in a cold sweat. Alexia’s dragon might be weak, but the surrounding mages were not that strong. After being startled by her, they lowered their heads and no longer dared to peek at her.

Louie did not reprimand nor praise his daughter’s actions. He simply smiled and patted Alexia’s head and nodded at the nearby mages, signaling them to open the way as he brought Alexia to the upper level of the tower.

“They’re just in awe of your vibrant glow, Alexia.”

Walking up the stairs, Louie rubbed his daughter’s moon-colored hair and smiled gently.

“But I don’t like being watched by humans like that, Father God! It makes me feel like an animal in captivity.”

Alexia let out her discontent with an upturned gaze.

“Ha, really a proud little female dragon…”

Louie laughed as he reached out to pinch Alexia’s nose and said squarely, “You have to learn to be watched, Alexia! Learn to be watched by the races that you think are small and lower than you. As a queen, you are supposed to make the eyes of your subjects fall on you and make them feel reverence and respect for you.”

“It is natural for a king to be the star of enlightenment for the people. Let them show their admiration and eulogize you to the utmost glory.”

“I understand, Father God…”

Alexia pouted and her cheeks puffed slightly, “But I want the gaze of Father God and Mother God more.”

Her inverted dragon pupils which could be called terrifying, fluttered and flashed. She eagerly looked at Louie and spoke with a clear voice.

“My eyes and your Mother God’s eyes are always watching you.”

“What if Alexia does not do well? Would Father God and Mother God hate Alexia?”

The tiny elf dragon’s eyebrows furrowed and let out a heartbreaking pitiful expression.

“I don’t know how your Mother God thinks of you, but your Father God will always keep his eyes on you. No matter what you do, Alexia, you must know that you deserve the glory of being my child.”

Louie’s voice seemed to be everywhere like a god.

“Father God is the best.”

Alexia smiled delicately, but soon she collected her emotion. Her cheerful and beautiful face turned clear and cold as someone came over.

“Great Dragon God, what an honor for you to visit this small tower. Your faithful servant Marches pays you the highest tribute!”

A figure quickly ran over from the room close by. He kneeled in front of Louie and excitedly kissed his shoe.

Alexia fixed her eyes and found that it was an old man with white hair whose strength was at the level of a nine-ringed mage, the strongest in the mage tower. However, he did possess even a hint of the legendary degree, putting him far from reaching the legendary rank.

“I am showing Alexia the city. This is Alexia, my daughter, and your future master!”

“At least I meet you, o darling of the silver moon, the darling of the dragon, your beauty is like the bright moon under the dark night. You are the moonlight that guides one out of the darkness.”

Marches’ fawned shamelessly. He was about to kiss Alexia’s shoes but found that she wasn’t wearing any at all, so he awkwardly stepped back.

He did not dare touch the delicate bare feet, afraid that Alexia would just kick him to death for this blasphemy.

“Go about your business, Marches, I have noticed the contributions you made to Dragon City.”

Louie’s calm words made Marches put away his flattering smile. He showed his devotion and trembled with excitement at Louie’s praise. He humbly saluted the two and retreated back to his room.

Louie looked back, saw Alexia’s unchanged expression, and asked, “What is it, Alexia?”

“He really… makes dragons feel disgusted, Father God.”

Alexia’s expressionless face became alive again, revealing her disgust.

“But he is loyal to me, and he is my believer. Having devout faith towards me is enough.”

Louie continued “Marches is the first person I took under my wing. He was not strong and was only a seven-ringed mage when I first met him. Now, he is a nine-ringed mage, meaning that his speed of ranking up is fast even if it was an outcome of using various potions. His talent is limited to this, so I’m afraid that he will not be able to reach the legendary rank.”

Louie’s gaze was far-reaching. Under Alexia’s admiring gaze, he continued, “He does not have any talent in management, and barely has enough talent in magic, but he is devout to me. He is also quite dedicated to raising young mages and cultivating enough talented mages for Dragon City. You shouldn’t loathe him and don’t need to give him a higher power and status. It’s enough to just let him continue to contribute to the education of Dragon City.”

“I have seen his contribution with my eyes. He will be glorified after death. When he ascends to my kingdom, I will bestow upon him the glory of a holy spirit so that he can be with god.”

Louie’s voice was unhurried, this was the promise of a god.

Marches was one of those people who Louie would personally bestow with eternal life after his death by consuming his divine power.

This old man had worked as Louie’s slave when he was a mortal, and unlike other believers, he was the lucky one who truly accompanied a god.

“Father God, you are truly a merciful and great god. That Marches is lucky that he can stand in the glory of God forever.”

Alexia’s childish and delicate expression showed a look of envy. If she could, she also wanted to accompany her parents and become a daughter who could make them proud.

“This was due to his choices. If he did not believe in me, then he would not have all these. Since he believes in me and is devout enough, any gods would think that this is enough.”

People who followed the gods early on would devote their faith and loyalty at a time when the situation was unstable. It was simply logical for them to be treated preferentially.

“Noella is powerful. As a lord, you have to make her obey your orders instead of fighting with her. Her power can become your most important assistance.”

Louie’s words made Alexia’s face flush as if her cheeks were on fire. She lowered her head and tugged at the corner of his coat, accepting the criticism of her Father God.

“Sisna is loyal by nature and is your nominal sister. You can trust her completely whether in the affairs of Dragon City or in the affairs of the Silver Moon Kingdom. She is well known among the elves and is strong. Don’t be ashamed as you can ask her anything. Do not let your pride blind you.”

“Lysfer is naturally strong as a beastman. She cares about her clan and is a promising candidate to reach the legendary rank. For this wolf girl who has high pride, you just need to treat her tribe members well. Since she signed a contract with me, she would also be loyal to you. At the same time, you can also use her tribe as your hostage to coerce her.”

“Clooney is my pope. He is absolutely loyal to me and will also be loyal to you, but you have to remember that divine power and royal power are separate. You can not be involved in the power of the divine, but you also cannot let him hollow you out and get into royal power.”

“There are also others… as long as you keep them loyal and in awe of you, it would be enough. The kingdom won’t need you to do anything as your subordinates will do everything for you.”

“You just need to do a good job in deploying people. That’s what governance is all about. Choose people according to their talents and raise them accordingly.”

“……”

Louie’s words seemed like the morning bell and the evening drum as they rang in Alexia’s mind. Alexia did not dare think of anything else and carefully listened to Louie’s words and memorized them with all her heart.

When Louie finally stopped speaking, Alexia noticed that many people in the entire city were out of their homes and were either at the square or heading to the church.

Alexia stood by the window on the upper level of the mage tower. After noticing this, she seemed to have understood the meaning, but still asked, “Father God, this is?”

“It is time, witness my ascension to becoming a god!”

Even Louie felt his heart stir at the scene before him. He will finally reach immortality and grasp the might of the gods!
