Tang Shaoyang chuckled when he heard the story. That was quite crazy for her to trust him. Back then, he was still level 200++. It was just crazy to gamble on him to beat her God Rank friends.
But then he found The Authority was quite underwhelming to be a reward for him to reach God's Rank. It was just a bunch of lists.
"Are you disappointed that the Authority is just a bunch of lists?" Avyn read his mind.
He nodded his head, "I am doing well without those lists anyway. I want something else instead of those lists."
Avyn grinned while shaking her head, "You will change your mind once you get The Authority.""I hope so," Tang Shaoyang wanted it to be the case. From Avyn's mysterious smile. It seemed there was something Avyn knew but Lunea did not know about The Authority.
"My business is over in this world. When are you going to move to my world?" He turned toward Lunea.
He had fulfilled his oath with Rumru, and there was no reason for him to stay in this world anymore. The next focus should be his ascension. Obtaining the maximum God Shards.
The visit to Aqura World delayed his trial a little bit. It was just fortunate that the time in Aqura World flowed ten times faster than Earth. Three days in Aqura was just a few hours of Earth time.
"I am ready to leave anytime, Your Majesty," Lunea replied with her weak voice.
"Then get ready. We will leave in thirty minutes," Tang Shaoyang gave them time to organize things.
"I have a few requests before we leave, Your Majesty!" Lunea stopped Tang Shaoyang from leaving her room.Tang Shaoyang nodded, "Go ahead."
Lunea glanced at Gracia, motioning with her head. The Exalted Priest nodded and got out of the room. Not long after, she returned with a demon.
Tang Shaoyang recognized the demon. He was one of the High Priests of the Temple of Light.
"If possible, I wish for you to accept her as well, Your Majesty. It's my fault that she became a demon, and it's my responsibility to provide her a new home and protection. You can trust me that she will not do any harm to The Empire."
Lunea was guilty that her negligence forced many of her followers to be a demon. She feared that her High Priests would oppose the idea of giving Gracia to Tang Shaoyang. From what she saw, her High Priests were fond of Gracia. That was why she kept the truth from them.
However, keeping them from the truth turned out to be a poison. The demon infiltrated into the temple and turned her people against her. She did not plan to kill her people who had turned into demons. She wanted to provide a safe place for them to stay. That was the only thing she could do for them.
If she left them behind in this world. They would be hunted down, and she thought of bringing them with her. But she had to make sure that Tang Shaoyang did not have prejudice against the demon.
High Priest Risty lowered her head, ashamed for what she had done. Despite the sins she had committed, Goddess Lunea still protected her. Even when she became a demon. Goddess Lunea was still on her side and cared for her.
"You can bring your demon followers with you. Doesn't really matter to me. I have a demon in my army as well. He is a Sword Instructor in my army," Tang Shaoyang gave them the reply instantly.
The former High Priest immediately raised her head, not expecting to hear the answer. She was shocked to hear the answer. There was no hesitation in accepting a demon like her.
Lunea and Gracia were shocked as well. They thought of a way to convince Tang Shaoyang to accept the demon.
"Is there anything else you want?"
Lunea nodded her head, "The second request is for you to bring The Osligia Kingdom with you as well. From what I heard from Gracia, you seem to dislike them because of the wrong start. But trust me, they are quite—"
Tang Shaoyang stopped her from continuing by waving his hand at her, "There's no need to worry about that. Their King came to me and asked to be my vassal. I have accepted them."
Lunea let out a chuckle, "It seems I am worried for nothing."
The Osligia Kingdom was supposed to be present for Tang Shaoyang. An additional force for his empire. That was why she set up her temple in the elf's territory.
The elf was known for their beauty. She thought it would be a good present for him who back then looked at her with lust. It was her attempt to satisfy him to smoothen the deal.
After talking about it, Tang Shaoyang realized an issue. How did he move the Osligia Kingdom and Lunea's followers to the portal gate?
He could return by switching positions with the spirits, but it would be troublesome to move a whole kingdom. He could not just bring them to the city nearby to use the Adventurer's Guild's portal gate.
"What's the issue, Your Majesty?" Lunea seemed to notice there was something bothering him.
Tang Shaoyang told her the issue, "What's the Osligia Kingdom's population? And how many knights and priests do we have?"
Lunea and Tang Shaoyang looked at Gracia. She and Risty might be the only ones in this room who knew the number.
"There are around a hundred and fifty thousand elves. We have seventeen thousand knights and nine thousand priests."
If they moved with those numbers to the nearby city. They might think they were invading the city, and it would lead to a war.
"We need a portal. Does the temple have a spare portal?"
"We don't have a portal, but I think King Manasa has a few spare portals," Gracia replied.
"Then let's set up the portal and get ready to leave!" Tang Shaoyang could not wait to go back.
He missed her daughter already. While it was just a few hours on Earth, he had been here more than three days.
