Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination-Chapter 924 Please Don’t Throw Me Away
Since the divine had spoken, Kazuma had no reason or other choice to refuse. The other dragon leaders also agreed to the terms because they knew what would await them if they opposed the divine beings.
The dragons were known for their power and arrogance. They usually looked down on the other races and revered their sacred mountains. The battle between the inhabitants of the world against the accursed creatures barely attracted their attention to jump into action because they did not care about places other than their dragon nest.
However, that was the end of their peaceful time of indifference. The dragons would reign and protect this region at the request of the divine. Lifa would appoint the next ruler for the situation that Luna had prepared.
Lifa and Luna then shared some open secrets with the dragons before ending their crucial meeting with a win-win situation.
"You are a tyrant, but you can manage a kingdom well. Since you belong to the Beastkin Race, then this situation will definitely be accepted by the world easily. Please protect the Yhester Region's people, Kazuma and the esteemed dragon elders. We are counting on you." Lifa ended her words in a gentle tone.
Everything went according to Luna's expectations because she had talked about this to Elysia and the Goddesses. However, there was one factor that rolled beyond her predictions.
"Her Highness Empress, please don't leave! If you must go to protect the world, then allow this little bunny help you by your side till the end!" Yusagi prostrated before Luna this time. She couldn't let her Empress go to the battle between Gods.
She knew if she kept quiet and complied, it would be her biggest regret if her honorable Empress never returned. If her Empress wished to fight as a hero saving the world, she had to be there to lighten her Empress' burden!
"Hm, you have someone who doesn't want you to abdicate at all costs." Kazuma sighed. He felt exhausted at the thought of the responsibility he suddenly had to shoulder.
He got the territory to manage and rule over, but that also included the burden of being the ruler of a large area. It was not just the dragon mountains but the entire Yhester Region, the central of Beastkin Continent.
"My little bunny just won't listen to me. Please prepare yourself and come back here at noon for your inauguration ceremony as the next Emperor of Yhester Region, Kazuma. I will invite the rulers and nobilities from other regions." Luna raised her palm to reassure Kazuma.
"There's going to be an uproar this afternoon." Kazuma sighed once more and got up from his seat. "Let's go. We have many things to do."
The dragons then bid their farewell to the Goddesses and left the palace.
After making sure the dragons had left the palace grounds, Luna crouched down and patted Yusagi on the shoulder. "Yusagi, didn't I talk to you about this last night. I just want to let go of the things that are holding me down because I have become the divine's servant."
"But, you never said that you would help the divine beings in the battle between Gods with the slightest chance of survival. You said it as if you and Princess Lynn wanted to die as heroes." Yusagi raised her head, but she remained prostrate on the floor.
"I didn't say it? Yes, it's because we don't intend to fall. I only say it because my daughters and I have no intention of returning to govern this region. We will carve out our new future." Luna smiled faintly.
"You mean?" Yusagi widened her eyes, but that still didn't change the fact that her Empress would leave her. "Even so, please allow me to keep serving you! Please allow me to follow you! I will do anything. I will wear my underwear under my clothes. So, please don't leave me!"
"..." Luna felt somewhat shocked. She didn't expect her aide still have that habit.
"Raise your head. Why are you so adamant? I give you freedom and guarantee a bright future. Isn't your dream to find a strong partner and make lots of babies?" Luna sighed and stood up.
"It would be meaningless if you weren't there. My life is to serve you for life! My dream of finding a strong mate and making lots of kittens was just an excuse to make sense of it when asked. You saved my life when I was just a wasted bunny. You are the one who gave me a purpose to live and keep striving to be stronger, so please allow me to devote my life to serving you until the end of my life." Yusagi begged once again with teary eyes.
She didn't want to be abandoned because, in her mind, she also saw her Empress as her parent.
Luna glanced at Elysia as she wondered what she needed to do about this situation. She didn't expect to bring Yusagi, but this bunny girl insisted on serving her for life.
'If she is your trusted aide, then you can take her with you under one condition.' Elysia gave a bit of enlightenment via the telepathic group.
'Yes, and what kind of conditions do I need to fulfill if I'm going to bring my little servant with me?' Luna wanted to know how to get the permit.
'Make her your contracted one. Bound her spirit to yours as her faith lies to you. She is your loyal servant. However, the other Goddesses and girls might test her, so she must be well prepared.' Elysia intertwined her fingers and smiled. Elena, Lifa, and Rhea nodded at that statement.
'Thank you for your permission. I'll make her a good servant for us, but let me tease her a bit~' Luna was happy when she got the green light. Their pantheon would continue to grow, but not just anyone could join.
"You've been with me since you were a little kitten. Your duty to serve the Empress is over. The current me is a fox lady named Luna Evroria. Yusagi, I will allow you to follow me for the rest of your life on one condition." Luna raised her finger.
"Let me know your condition, my lady." Yusagi rejoiced when he got the chance. She wouldn't be thrown away by her Empress, but that didn't mean she was getting immediate approval.
"I am a God believer, but we have no divine beings to serve. However, they graced their noble presences before us. Do you know who I have served as a servant? You have two chances and two minutes to answer." Luna took out the hourglass timer. She set it to two minutes and put it on the table.
Yusagi thought it was an easy question to answer. She knew her EMpress showed great interest in Elysia because her Empress aimed to receive the Goddess of Light's favor.
She observed the three Goddesses before her. Elysia, the Goddess's disciple, was also there. The human girl who became her Empress's adopted daughter.
"My Empress, you serve the Goddess of Light and become her faithful servant." Yusagi answered confidently.
"Wrong, but not completely wrong. You have a hundred seconds left to find the right answer." Luna shook her head.
"!!!" Yusagi gasped and paled. Her answer was wrong, and she only had one chance left!? If she failed to answer correctly, she would indeed be thrown away. She didn't want that, but there wouldn't be another additional opportunity, considering Luna's nature.
'If the Goddess of Light wasn't the correct answer, then who did her Empress serve!? The Goddess of Life on the left, or the Goddess of Nature on the right? Or perhaps, the Goddesses who aren't present here!?' Yusagi broke out in cold sweat as her brain worked hard to analyze the general information she knew and tried to come up with the correct answer.
Luna covered her mouth as she was amused by her little game.
'Luna is quite sadistic. Does she like playing with other people's feelings?' Elysia rolled her eyes.
'She's a vixen. That's only natural. She previously wanted to drag us to become her region's guardian. However, she abandons her kingdom now because she sees the broader horizon and endless opportunity with us. If she can get huge benefits with us, then it's no wonder she will sell her soul and body to you, Ely.' Elena tried to offend Luna, frankly.
'True, but not entirely true. I want to feel something called a family bond with my daughters. I help you and you help me in return, isn't that how a relationship is established? I gave my all, so please treat me well~' Luna answered calmly and cheerfully.
"..." Yusagi opened her mouth to answer, but no sound came out because she was afraid that her answer would be wrong. Tears filled her eyes because of the unbelievable mental pressure she was receiving from herself.
At that moment, she noticed Elysia was the only one with closed eyes. If Elysia was a Goddess's disciple, then that human girl would definitely ascend to godhood sooner or later.
Perhaps her Empress would invest in serving Elysia as both adopted daughter and future Goddess? Considering a shrewd vixen, that might be the correct answer, but...
Elysia opened her eyes suddenly, making Yusagi look straight into that pair of enchanting purplish-blue eyes.
It was the first time Yusagi looked directly into Elysia's eyes. She got lost in that sight which seemed to suck her soul into the infinite universe.
"Yusagi, your time is up. So, what's your answer?" Luna tapped the hourglass and folded her arms.
"Elysia..." Yusagi muttered in a daze, but she soon returned from her trance. She covered her mouth when that name just came out reflexively.
"..." Yusagi stared at her Empress with so much nervousness and fear.
"That's right. Ely, you're playing dirty." Luna pouted.
"No way..." Yusagi felt hopeless. It took a few seconds for her brain to register her. The Empress had just told her that her answer was correct. "Eh?"
"I just looked directly into Yusagi's eyes. I didn't do anything to spoil your fun. No matter what answer she gives, it won't change anything, right? She will still go with us at your expense." Elysia shook her head.
"Eh, eh!? My lady, you scared me to death. I, I, uwaa..." Yusagi felt a mix of relief, annoyance, and joy. She cried like a child.
"Yosh, yosh, my apologies. I went too far to tease you." Luna stroked Yusagi's head and gave her bunny girl a warm hug. She wished her aide a peaceful life, but this bunny insisted on serving her for life and took a difficult path. She could only shoulder the responsibility to make her faithful servant happy then.
