Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!-Chapter 1274 - 355: Olivia Awakens

Kael was taken aback for a moment, initially intending to ask which old friend it was, but quickly realized that there weren't many who could be considered mutual friends between him and the beautiful witch. Among them, only one fit the condition of being "awake."

That was Elanna's teacher, the former Federation Sword Saint Olivia.

"After so many years, she has finally woken up!"

A reminiscent smile appeared on Kael's face.

He never expected Olivia would recover at such a time—it truly surprised him.

He originally thought it would be a few more years, causing her to directly miss Kael and Elanna's wedding!

"After checking the situation of these Undead Lords at the border, and confirming there are no issues, let's go see her. I'm also curious about what state Olivia is in now."

Flandre nodded, and the figures of the two gradually faded into the crowd, as if their presence suddenly vanished. After escaping everyone's gaze, they flew directly towards the distant border.

...

Meanwhile, the news of Olivia's awakening had started to spread in small circles.

Olivia's situation remained very special.

As the daughter of the Caesar Governor, Olivia's death back then stirred up a massive storm among the upper echelons of the Yibel Federation.

To many elders of the Yibel Federation, Olivia's death was not merely the loss of high-level combat strength; it was a direct slap to the Federation's face!

Killing your Federation's high-ranking personnel abroad, then brazenly declaring that your people were killed by us.

If treated this way, how would you feel?

You'd want to set the God of Ice's horse loose.

Oh, sorry, I forgot the God of Ice became divine many years ago, and she doesn't have a horse!

In fact, this extreme hostility has already shifted from targeting the God of Ice to subtly extending towards Kael and Elanna, who were saved by Olivia.

If it weren't for the Caesar Governor pacifying this conflict internally due to Olivia's request and considering the current situation of the Yibel Federation, some people might still hold certain views.

Nonetheless, for federal core members like Kael, who occasionally exchange ideas with the Royal Court and the Governor, they can feel that since this incident, the Caesar Governor has begun to lose some of his strength.

It's not that his skills or decision-making have weakened, but his mental state has visibly declined.

Especially Kael, who is particularly sensitive to these changes.

After all, for other high-level personnel frequently interacting with the Governor, they may sense changes in his mental state but can't tangibly perceive Caesar's mental condition.

However, having been sealed in the Star Realm by the Ether Spear for over a decade, upon escaping and reconnecting with the Caesar Governor, Kael could clearly sense that the current Caesar Governor had aged.

It's not a physical aging, but a feeling that his spirit and vigor can no longer move forward with determination.

From a professional level, as the Demigod Peak, the Caesar Governor's physical state shouldn't show evident decline even in a hundred years.

But his mental state has weathered countless storms and is no longer the high-spirited Caesar Governor of the past.

After all, since the outset of besieging the strongest Pope on the surface, the Caesar Governor has been continuously losing what mattered most to him. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

To put it bluntly, for a long time, Caesar's presence was more akin to an Emperor sitting on a golden throne; the heavy pressure of the Yibel Federation suppressed his humanity and for a significant period, led him to focus all his energy on the Federation.

In the foundational era when Yibel Federation was most endangered, this Governor, who chose not to become Emperor, silently turned his back on numerous comrades, bearing the greatest risks during those days.

It's fair to say that thanks to the stabilizing presence of Caesar, the Yibel Federation was able to persevere until the momentum shifted towards besieging the Holy Briania, and Kael had the opportunity with the Floating Town to sweep across adversaries.

Yet despite being such a formidable figure, he couldn't even save his daughter's life.

Was it because the God of Ice had no qualms about this apparent strongest Human at the forefront? Was it because Caesar lacked strength?

False.

Everyone knows that if developed, the gods who cannot appear in their true form on the divine land would face enormous troubles and losses if Caesar targeted them individually.

The decision to act was ultimately due to knowing that as long as they didn't confront Caesar directly, and managed a quick and decisive strike to kill his daughter and eliminate Yibel Federation's future hope, then for the greater good of more Federation people, no matter how painful or conflicted Caesar felt, he wouldn't go berserk against the God of Ice Church.

Because at the time, the God of Ice Church undoubtedly represented an aspect of Holy Briania's face; if Caesar acted without preparation, the Yibel Federation could fall into irreversible disaster.
