Chapter 215- Prophecy (Part 2)

"How... do you know my name?" Rin asked as he heaved up and down.

"How could I not know the name of the person I was awaiting the most?" The queen asked.

"What is all of this about? Awaiting me? How do you know of my existence? I've never met you before."

"Well, we certainly never met in this state. But, I know you, more than anyone else, Rin." Eisheth's smile widened as she landed on the ground and approached Rin slowly. "I have been waiting for years and years. Awaiting the person that I will finally serve and devote my life to."

"Huh?" Rin was completely confused by her words.

'Serve? Is this woman insane?' He was almost inclined to believe that she was completely out of her mind. However, he doubted she was just saying nonsense.

"It's a simple matter, Rin. But, before I can explain. We need to leave. This place is too filthy for you, Rin. I will make sure to erase it." Eisheth said as she extended her arm, ready to blast Godfrey and Lala's house out of existence.

"No, wait!"

"Hm?"

"Don't do that!"

"Why?"

"What do you mean 'why'? Those people are innocent. They did nothing." Rin could barely hold himself from sighing loudly. "You want me to leave with you, right? Fine, let's leave. But, leave the people that live inside that house alone and don't harm them."

"Rin, you... Why do you care about a bunch of low-lives?" Eisheth asked with clean confusion written in her eyes. She genuinely didn't understand why Rin cared about the two people.

"If you harm them in any way, shape, or form, I will make you regret that decision." Rin threatened with a cold tone. Although he didn't understand the situation yet, he could see that Eisheth had some kind of respect to him.

"... I understand." Luckily, the queen nodded her head and pulled her arm away before she approached Rin. "Let's go."

Then, Eisheth extended her hand to Rin, clearly asking for him to grab it. The latter stared at it for a few seconds before he sighed.

'I'm sorry for the trouble I caused both of you, Godfrey, Lala. Although I didn't know you for long, I'm still deeply grateful for your help.' He thought as he flashed one last gaze at the quiet house before he put his hand on the queen's hand.

Instantly, he felt a weird mana cover his body and before he could even blink, he found himself in a completely different place than before. Not the wilderness of the forest but what seemed to be a very extravagant bedroom. The interior was made of sparkling marble with decorations of the highest quality.

"Welcome to my bedroom."

"... Why did you transport us to your bedroom?" Rin asked with an astonished expression. If it wasn't for the fact that he needed to keep his composure in front of the queen, he was sure his mouth would hang open.

'She executed instant teleportation as if it was nothing. How many powers did this woman have?'

The more he spent time with Eisheth, the more absurd she became even though he already knew that she was absurdly strong.

"Please, sit down on the bed first." She said before turning around to walk to the door.

"Hm?"

"I will be back in a moment."

After that, Eisheth left the room somewhere, leaving Rin alone. When he was sure she was far away, he exhaled a deep breath.

'What a monster! Even when she wasn't trying to pressure me, I can barely breathe comfortably around her.' He thought.

The situation in general didn't seem to be too bad. The queen didn't seem to hate him and she even treated him respectfully. This alone was way better than anything Rin expected to happen. However, he wasn't completely safe yet.

A few minutes passed in silence as Rin tried to determine what he should do for now. That was until Eisheth returned to the room, wearing different clothes. Her long, elegant robe was replaced with a more comfortable robe that looked very similar to a pyjama.

"Why did you change your clothes?!" Rin immediately jumped on his legs as he retreated back warily.

"Hm? Oh, I still didn't explain myself." She said.

"How can you forget that part?!" Rin didn't know whether he should laugh or cry at how quirky the demon queen was.

"Fufufufu! My apologies. Well, I shall make it brief since we have more important 'things' to do after this." After saying that, Eisheth took a deep breath and continued. "Are you aware of your powers, Rin? The power you inherited from the goddess Lili, I mean."

Immediately, Rin's eyes widened in pure shock. Even if he wanted to not react to her words, he would've never been able to pull it off. Eisheth had dropped a bombshell casually.

"You don't need to lie to me, Rin. As I said before, I know more about you than anyone else. I know that you aren't from this world. I know that you were reincarnated by the goddess Lili and inherited the powers of the shadow monarch. I also know that you hid this fact from everyone else except the human girl named Elise."

"..." Opening his mouth to speak, Rin found himself completely speechless.

'How does she...'

"I'm sure you're thinking 'How does she know all of this?'. Well, Because it's too complicated for a brief chat, I will make it short. When the shadow monarch was still alive, he was revered as the greatest god in the god realm. He was strong, rightful, wise, and kind. In fact, all gods saw him as the true king among kings. The ruler of the god realm. Of course, being in such a position, he was bound to harness the attention of the goddesses of the god realm. They all admired him and desired to be his wives. However, the shadow monarch never accepted their proposal and only allowed for one goddess to be in his life. That goddess is Lili."

"...!!"
