Chapter 272

Night had fallen, and the ministers in the council palace had long since left. The only sound in the quiet castle was the footsteps of the guards patrolling.

Kachia is feeling great right now... ugh, I mean, she's feeling terrible, extremely terrible.

She vowed that when Kachina returned this time, she would definitely warn her not to go to places influenced by the power of desire. "You can tolerate meddling a little at home, but now you've pulled this stunt?!"

Minor self-touching or touching might only cause a physical reaction, but if one maintains rationality and restraint, the impact is minimal.

After all, she was a Supernatural Being, and she was able to suppress the feelings conveyed by this empathy to some extent.

However, the influence of Power of Desire on the mind can also be conveyed through empathy, and because Kachina has already been affected by desire, she has no room to resist.

Therefore, in order to eliminate the Power of Desire as soon as possible, Kachia chose the most direct and simple method - not to suppress it, but to release it completely.

As for Kachina's plea for help, she could hear it, but Kachia didn't respond immediately. Firstly, she really didn't have time, and secondly, she should teach Kachina a lesson so that she wouldn't dare to underestimate her again!

Since it wasn't the first time she'd released her emotions, Kachia was quite adept at it. She had originally planned to release her emotions quickly and then settle scores with Kachina, but soon Kakina started acting strangely.

When Kachina's sensation at that moment was transmitted to Kachia through empathy, it felt like an electric current suddenly shooting into Kachia's body...

Whoosh!~

Although their feelings are similar, the Geminis' physical sensitivities are completely different. In addition, due to the influence of the power of the Mark of Desire, Kachina is now incredibly strong, while Kachia is like a complete novice, at a loss and has never tried such a high level of operation before!

"What's going on... gurgle!"

"Kachina! Kachina! Stop it, stop it!!!"

Kachia called out anxiously in her heart.

I'm dying, I'm really dying... Rainbow, stop, rainbow... Kachia was in utter despair, wanting to resist but utterly powerless...

Because of the empathic connection, she had to stand for a while and sit for a while, even though Kachia was very unwilling. Only in that way could her body find some relief, because Kachina, far away, was in the same situation...

Then a bizarre scene unfolded.

Even though it was just Kachia alone, she kept changing her posture, as if she were being played a prank by an invisible demon.

If she could... she really wanted to smash that girl's head in!

"What... what exactly happened?!"

While enduring the humiliation, Kachia used her remaining rationality to think of a solution.

This time was completely different from before; the intense feeling was entirely different from Kachina's usual playful touching and fiddling! Kachina was actually there!!!

Kachia's first thought was that Kachina had been targeted by the God of Desire. There had been signs of this last night, and she must have fallen into a trap today, especially since Kachia had previously sent her a message. So she mobilized all her power, trying to use empathy to communicate with Kachina and help her fight the enemy.

The result was that it would have been better if the power hadn't been transmitted. After the power was transmitted, the feeling became even more intense. If Ryan knew what Kachia had done, he would definitely curse her out. It was the first time in his life that he had encountered someone with golden wings like an angel suddenly unfolding behind them during a conversation. The feeling was sacred and inviolable. However, when he turned around, he saw that this sacred angel had fallen into the Servant of Desire —the angel was trying to fly up to the clouds.

The angels were strengthened, and Ryan was in trouble.

Kachia was unaware of these things, but because the power was transferred to Kachina, her ability to resist became even weaker. The last bit of rationality she had was eventually swallowed up by the pranks of the invisible demon. The twins, now completely free, began a shared experience where, despite being thousands of miles apart, they couldn't help but be in sync.

As the first rays of sunlight appeared on the horizon, the head maid, Noel, was waiting outside the Gemini Empress's room as early as ever. When the time came, Empress Kachia would let her in to help her get dressed. As the Your Majesty, Kachia would summon her ministers every morning to discuss and handle state affairs.

As for Her Your Majesty Kachina, she is sometimes absent, and even when she is present, she doesn't get up on time.

"Strange, why hasn't His Your Majesty summoned me yet?"

Noel glanced at his pocket watch, somewhat puzzled, and finally couldn't resist knocking on the door.

"Come in."

Kachia's languid voice rang out.

Inside the room, Kachia, who had been up all night, was lounging on a recliner on the balcony in her bathrobe. She lazily said to the dumbfounded Noel at the door, "Kachina did another experiment last night. That girl just left. Noel, you should get ready."

Although it might arouse Noel's suspicion, Kachia simply didn't have the energy to care about such things.

Oh, Earth Goddess, please forgive her sins... and please, please, let nothing happen to Kachina.

Thinking this, Kachia calmed herself down and slowly tried to establish a empathic connection, struggling to suppress the subconscious twitching reaction in her body, and began to call out Kachina's name in her heart.

"Kachina."

"Kachina."

"Kachina ..."

"..."

"..."

Kachina awoke feeling weak and almost paralyzed. A numb sensation in a certain part of her body made her very uncomfortable, and any movement caused a thick, sticky feeling. There was also a very strange smell in the air.

"Hmm... Kachia?"

She looked up, her expression momentarily blank, then looked down and saw Ryan lying beside her, his face looking 'haggard'.

What happens?

The fragmented memories began to piece together, and soon Kachina remembered, oh, she had slept with Ryan!

Hmm? So what? Isn't it even better? It's a significant step forward.

Speaking of last night, it was really... different from what's described in the book, wasn't it? It was a bit too crazy.

"Rider, I will take responsibility for you." Kachina blinked her pink plum blossom eyes, suddenly realizing something was wrong, and her body jerked upright. "Wild, runner-up!"

"Oh! Shit!" Ryan greeted her warmly, a reaction triggered by the withdrawal from a certain area.

"Ah!"

Kachina was also provoked, and she lost her balance and pressed down on Ryan, completely covering Ryan's head, to the point that the latter was almost suffocating.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, spare my life!"

"Oh, sorry, I... um?"

Kachina managed to sit up again, but before she could say anything, she suddenly noticed a commotion outside the tent.

Someone is approaching, and there are many of them!

The smell of fresh blood was very strong.

Kachina's expression changed drastically; she realized something was wrong. Last night, she sought out Ryan to quickly eliminate the influence of the Power of Desire. She had thought that with the combined effects of the Chosen of the Earth God power and the release of her emotions, she should soon regain her senses and lead the army to break through Wildea's blockade...

As a result, the whole night passed!

Oh my god!!!

At that moment, Kachina's mind went blank; she felt as if the sky had fallen.

"W-What do we do?! Rider, get up, get up, something's happened!"

As soon as Kachina finished dressing, the tent flap was lifted, Elvian, dressed in armor, appeared at the entrance. She was clearly stunned for a moment after seeing her for the first time, and then quickly gave the order.

"You all wait outside!"

The Wilderness soldiers behind him readily accepted the order.

"Elvian!!" Kachina's anger surged again, but she didn't have much strength to resist, so her angry voice sounded somewhat weak inside.

Elvian's gaze wasn't even on her; instead, it passed over Kachina and looked at Ryan lying on the mat.

Silence.

The tent fell silent suddenly.

Elvian didn't know what to say.

What do you want her to say?

Should I say, "Hey Ryan, I never expected to run into you here?"

Elvian felt inexplicably annoyed. After all, Ryan was her fiancé in name only, so what was going on? Was this a case of catching someone in the act???

Ryan didn't speak. After recovering, he kept giving Elvian meaningful glances. Although the situation seemed a bit off, the outcome seemed to be the right one? Anyway, Elvian was in control of the situation now. As long as the goal was achieved, wasn't that enough?

Well... damn it, I really need to replenish my energy when I get back. I need to have 'Ina' make two big pots of nourishing soup, otherwise I won't be able to hold on at all!

He still couldn't understand it. Although Kachina was a seventh-tier Seventh Tier Transcendent before. Even the Grand Duke, who was so strong, was still overwhelmed by him. How come it was the other way around with Kachina? Was she so fierce on her first try? Was her empathy skill that strong?

I don't understand it, but whatever, I've achieved my goal.

"Empress Kachina, what a fine mood you're in," Elvian said to Kachina, her tone carrying the same sarcasm she used towards Ryan. "Your soldiers have been almost wiped out outside, and you're still having a good time here. Tsk tsk~ And you've brought along this pretty boy. Looks like Empress Kachina has found Prince? But he doesn't look very good. Besides being a bit pale, he's all skin and bones, and looks haggard... Ha~ He looks like a useless piece of trash."

Ryan: "..."

You keep cursing, keep cursing!

Fine, go ahead and curse me. I can't argue with you anyway.

Although I considered switching sides outright, there might be other things to do in the future, so it's better to stick with my identity as the Earth Emissary and a good citizen of Arcadia for now.

As for Kachina, realizing the situation was dire, she planned to make a desperate attempt to break through with Ryan, but Elvian noticed first, placing her sword directly at Kachina's neck and throwing out a silver handcuff.

"Please trouble Empress Kachina to wear this," Elvian said with a smirk.

"Hmph! You think you can control me? Dream on!"

"Is that so? If you don't agree, then I'll..." Elvian's gaze shifted to Ryan, "Then I'll kill him first."

Ryan: "???"

No, are you settling a personal score for me?

Want to experience Egypt?

"I'll put it on you after I kill him, or do you, Empress Kachina, have the confidence to fight me in your current state? I bet you can barely lift a weapon."

"Hateful!"

Although I hate to admit it, Kachina is indeed not in good condition, and besides, she has a weapon at her neck.

"Oh, and this too." Elvian flicked her longsword, sending Kachina's storage pouch flying and completely thwarting Kachina's escape plans.

Left with no other choice, she could only temporarily put on the handcuffs that sealed her Magic Power.

"Heh~" Elvian smiled. This was fantastic! Who could understand her feelings right now? Having trampled the Arcadia Empress underfoot and even managed to give Ryan a piece of her mind, Elvian was practically ecstatic!

"Hey you, put your clothes on, or I'll castrate you." Elvian's lips curled into a smirk.

Ryan dressed expressionlessly, already having already thought of 108 ways to deal with Elvian. He wouldn't believe he wouldn't bring this arrogant Queen down!... Oh wait, he didn't trust Ryan anyway, so never mind.

Okay, let's rest and recuperate first, then fight.

Ryan glanced at the preoccupied Kachina and thought to himself, "Now you know you were wrong, right? If you knew this would happen, what were you doing last night? You had to go all out, and now you're completely defenseless. Otherwise, you could have given Elvian a run for your money."

The battle that night, in every sense of the word, ultimately achieved Ryan's desired outcome.

Actually, around 3 a. m., after seeing the effects of the Power of Desire weaken Elvian gave the order for a full-scale attack. Clearly, the 100,000 men of Arcadia were exhausted, and how could they possibly be a match for the Moonlight Knight Order were all naked?

So until dawn, it was a one-sided massacre of the Arcadia army by the Wilder army.

Blood flowed like a river!

Elvian didn't hold back. She had wanted to attack Arcadia for a long time. Since Veldria had already been used as a pawn by Augustus, and they would be mortal enemies with Arcadia no matter what, she might as well wipe out the enemy's main force first.

While 100,000 men wouldn't completely cripple Arcadia, don't forget that 40,000 of Watchers, making up the majority of the Arcadia Empire's Watcher Legion. This devastating blow has fundamentally eliminated Arcadia's plans to continue expanding into the Northern Continent.

Therefore, Arcadia can only play a passive defensive role from now on.

When the news spread from the Kazar Plain, the countries on both northeastern continental plates were completely dumbfounded.

They found the news ridiculous, and not funny at all.

You're saying Veldria wiped out Arcadia's 100,000-strong army? Why don't you believe I'm the Creation God?!

However, as time went on, the Wilder army began a large-scale purge of the Kazar Plain, and together with the Northern Federation army that arrived later, they seized control of Kazar and established a forward outpost there to attack the Arcadia Empire. Finally, some people believed it was true.

After all, if Arcadia hadn't lost, they would never have given up the Kazar Plain.

Most people didn't know how this bizarre battle had happened, but the Arcadia was defeated, and Empress Kachina was taken prisoner. When the news reached the Arcadia Empire, the atmosphere within the entire empire became extremely tense.

Kachia, who had already sensed the general situation through empathy, was so angry she almost blew up the castle.

Not only was their entire army of 100,000 wiped out, but their sister was also captured. Now they have no chance of winning, no way to retreat, and they don't even know how to rescue Kachina.

"Your Majesty!" Inside the palace, a minister bowed his head and said, "This is impossible. The priority right now is to rescue Empress Kachina. I suggest we immediately reconcile with the Augustus Empire!"

"If reconciliation were possible, I wouldn't need you to speak for me!" Kachia sneered from the throne. "The Watcher Legion. If it were you, would you give up this opportunity? The moment I express the idea of reconciliation, Augustus will demand an exorbitant price, letting them figure out the Empire's situation. Then, instead of attacking the Northern Continent, we'll be counterattacked by it!"

She absolutely cannot show weakness now.
