Chapter 140 Theory
Thinking of that made Ciel not know whether to laugh or cry. At the same time he also felt sorry for the Elf Queen, a woman with such a great burden, but he frustrated her so many times.
"It's not that easy, of course. The Fairy Heart is not something that can be easily destroyed," the Elf Queen replied. "However, I can't say that I and the Elves are safe. Maybe the Supreme Gods can't destroy it, but I can't think that way when we're talking about the Ancient Night King. The good thing is that his whereabouts are now very unclear. It is unknown whether or not he exists in the Ancient Night Race. However, he is most likely not there or he cannot act because if he could, he should have already attacked the Seven Realms."
"Ancient Night King huh?" Ciel narrowed his eyes.
For this creature, he didn't know much because even the information the Elf Queen and the Ice Goddess had provided wasn't very clear.
It was only said that he was really very dangerous.
In reality, compared to the entire Seven Realms, the number of Gods possessed by the Ancient Night Race was far less. However, they were able to match the entire Seven Realms, which was of course due to the Ancient Night King's help.
"For now, I can only go with the flow," the Elf Queen continued with narrowed eyes.
"I did what they told me to do, but not to the point of taking the final step. The worms can stay there and they won't bother the Ice Goddess as long as I don't try to do anything."
When he heard her words, Ciel gave her a strange look.
It was a slight relief that the Elf Queen was safe.
However, the question was what if she took action against the Ice Goddess?
"Queen, I wonder how your relationship with the Ice Goddess began?" asked Ciel. "Do you really like her, I mean do you also like girls? And did your relationship with her start before the Fairy Heart was stolen or afterwards where you deliberately started a relationship with the Ice Goddess to follow the Ancient Night Race's plan?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe question made the Elf Queen's cheeks blush.
Her hand moved, hitting his palm on her stomach gently.
"I admit, this relationship was after the Fairy Heart was stolen and I initiated it because it was the order of the Ancient Night Race," she replied.
"Does that mean you're a woman with normal sexual interests, Queen?" Ciel asked again, and the Elf Queen smacked his palm again. This time harder.
"Of course, I'm a normal woman," she replied.
"But why did I see you looking so passionate at that moment? Yeah, and how come the Ice Goddess accepted you as her lover?" Ciel was curious again while the Elf Queen rolled her eyes.
She seemed to want to curse Ciel for asking those things.
Unfortunately, in this situation she had to answer so that there would be no doubt in Ciel's mind.
"Don't you see how beautiful the Ice Goddess is?" said the Elf Queen.
"Of course, she's so beautiful, only you can match her, so what?" Ciel was not convinced by the Elf Queen's words.
"You know, women can be fascinated by other women who are very beautiful even if they are normal. The beauty of the Ice Goddess exceeds that, even normal women can desire her, there is no way any woman would be disgusted by her. It's the same for me. Quite a lot of women end up desiring me after seeing me a few times. I can feel it clearly. They must have been very normal before because there can't be so many abnormal ones. I'm not saying that I had desire for the Ice Goddess, but I wasn't disgusted by her even if she kissed or touched me with lust. After that, even I ended up being affected."
Ciel, "..."
"So there is this kind of theory," he said with a strange expression.
Perhaps the causative factor was not just their physique, but their aura that when released in a gentle way would make others feel at ease.
"Then how did you get the Ice Goddess to accept you?" asked Ciel, repeating the previous question.
"Because I know that woman likes me, she's not normal," the Elf Queen replied as she stared in the other direction.
At this point, when talking about the Ice Goddess, her politeness seemed a little diminished, it even seemed like she was interested in talking about the Ice Goddess' weirdness.
"How do you know those things?" Ciel asked, getting more and more curious.
"She's always been cold to everyone, but never that cold to me. There were even times when she was awkward when talking to me. Now that's proven. I easily won her heart. It's just that, we can't think that she's completely sincere with no interests at all. You see, she wanted a Frozen Heart by loving others until her heart froze.
"Of course, I wouldn't say she completely only likes women. I think she still has the same sexual desire for men. It's just that she seems to be too proud to be a woman."
"That makes sense..." Ciel nodded in agreement.
Even so, everything she said did not actually prove that she would not take action against the Ice Goddess because she was not a strange woman who fell in love with the Ice Goddess to begin with.
The death of the Goddess might not be enough to make her cry even though they already had memories.
In the end, everything would depend on her own morality. Right now, she didn't do anything because she still had morality.
However, it could be different when she was already pressed.
Of course, she wasn't stupid either, she clearly knew that there was no guarantee of her surviving if she followed the Ancient Night Race's orders as they were truly vile enemies.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Elf Queen seemed to be aware of Ciel's thoughts by looking at his expression.
"I know your desire for the Ice Goddess is the same as your desire for me. I will try my best so that we can survive until this matter is resolved," she said.
Ciel was slightly surprised to hear her say that. His eyes could not help but glow.
"Now Queen, I believe I love you even more," he said.
The Elf Queen blushed with shame at that, looking at him helplessly.
"You are an unreasonable brat," she replied.
Her tone sounded soft, like she was completely lost in thought.
Unfortunately, Ciel responded by hugging her tighter.
He buried his face in her blonde hair which was not entirely neat but was very soft, silky, and fragrant.
Ciel thought he could sleep forever if his face was always in her hair.
The Elf Queen's eyes looked up at the sky, she sighed, and still let Ciel act as he pleased.
This was still tolerable as long as Ciel didn't ask for more.
What surprised her quite a bit was that she felt like she was also comfortable with this.
'Maybe I've already grown to like and love this little boy as a mother,' she thought.
No matter what, she still thought of Ciel as a little boy because there was indeed a significant difference in terms of their cultivation and age.
Even if Ciel thought of her as his lover, in her eyes Ciel was her adopted son, an adopted son whom she had allowed to be excessively spoiled, and in the future might actually become her man.
