Entry Editing: Loyal Succubus Nun

Other than the upper echelons of the Bright Church Court, it was impossible for any being below the rank of a Demigod to see through her disguise.

Of course, Lucia had no idea she was about to have an audience with the Elf Queen.

Alina didn’t give it much thought. She still had to go welcome Paslo later, so she smiled at everyone and said, "Welcome to the Elf Kingdom. Please, follow me. I will take you to the Elf Palace."

Su Xuan followed close behind, walking side-by-side with Alina. He asked, somewhat curiously, "Did Jie Lan ever challenge the Elf Queen?"

"That Jie Lan? She did indeed challenge the Elf Queen." Alina nodded and explained with a smile, "However, in that battle, her physical body was burned to ash by the Queen’s Magic. Her wanting to defeat the Queen is nothing more than a fool’s dream."

Su Xuan raised an eyebrow and pressed, "Then why didn’t you try to stop her?"

Alina stopped walking, glanced sideways at Su Xuan, and chuckled. "Stop her? Why would I stop her? It’s not like that Jie Lan can die. Besides, don’t you think it’s more interesting this way?"

"She can’t die?"

Hearing that Jie Lan possessed an undying ability, Su Xuan’s eyes revealed his clear surprise.

"Yes~"

Alina nodded in confirmation and continued to explain, "Jie Lan once received a blessing from the Goddess of Death. Her physical body is eternally indestructible; even the Gods would find it difficult to kill her completely."

"?"

’A blessing from the Goddess of Death?’

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan’s gaze sharpened.

He had previously encountered the Curse of the Goddess of Death. That Curse was so potent that even a True Vampire Ancestor would struggle to withstand it. It was capable of killing a Demigod.

So the blessing of the Goddess of Death was even more terrifying, granting Jie Lan an indestructible body...

It was easy to imagine just how powerful the Divine Position of the Goddess of Death truly was.

"Wait here for a moment. Paslo will be here soon. I’m going out to greet her." Alina’s voice interrupted Su Xuan’s thoughts. They had now arrived inside a magnificent palace.

"Alright."

Su Xuan nodded and waited quietly for Paslo’s arrival.

He glanced around. The palace’s decorations were exquisitely beautiful, exuding the unique elegance and refinement characteristic of the Elf Race.

After settling everyone in, Alina prepared to leave to welcome Paslo.

But before she left the palace, her gaze fell involuntarily upon Lucia once more.

’This person...’

She tried to discern Lucia’s identity from behind the white veil covering her face, but in the end, she could only shake her head helplessly and turn to leave.

Just as Alina left, Lucia frowned slightly, her gold-red eyes glancing toward Su Xuan, who was gently stroking Alice’s head.

’This guy...’

She was filled with confusion, unable to understand how Su Xuan had managed to build such a deep friendship with the Elf Race.

To the point that two Elf Princesses would come to greet him personally.

Lucia wasn’t too surprised by Beiya Leila’s appearance. Beiya Leila was Fuli and Flora’s mother and had a connection to Su Xuan.

’But what about the relationship between Alina and Su Xuan?’

’And also...’

Just as she was lost in thought, an ethereal song suddenly drifted through the air. Immediately after, a group of Elves walked into the palace in an orderly fashion, seemingly clearing a path for someone.

Fuli and Flora even knelt respectfully to welcome the person’s arrival.

Such a display made Lucia’s expression turn grave once more. A bold guess couldn’t help but form in her mind: ’Could it be the Elf Queen...?’

Before she could even collect her thoughts, an exquisitely beautiful woman dressed in magnificent silver robes strode gracefully into the palace.

The moment the woman appeared, Lucia’s eyes froze, revealing an undisguised look of astonishment.

’The Elf Queen!?’

Lucia had never expected the Elf Queen to appear before them at this moment.

After all, she knew nothing about the purpose of Su Xuan’s trip, and this unexpected encounter with the Elf Queen caught her completely off guard.

Although the Elf Queen had long been lost in a deep slumber and had never met Lucia before, Lucia knew in her heart that the Light Restriction inside her body would definitely attract the Queen’s attention, thereby exposing her true identity.

’This is bad!’

Lucia’s heart began to beat a little faster, and she took a few steps back.

’At this stage, I don’t want Su Xuan to know my real identity. If I’m exposed...’

However, the Elf Queen’s gaze didn’t linger on her. Instead, it passed right over her and went straight to Su Xuan.

She spoke gently, "President Su Xuan, you’ve come."

"Your Majesty." Su Xuan replied politely. There were no cumbersome formalities between them, like bowing to kiss the Elf Queen’s instep.

"Are these your Adventurers?" The Elf Queen’s gaze shifted to the women standing behind Su Xuan. As her eyes swept past Lucia, an almost imperceptible glimmer flashed within them, but they quickly returned to normal.

"Yes." Su Xuan nodded, then began to introduce his Guild members to the Elf Queen.

Throughout the introductions, the Elf Queen maintained a gentle smile, revealing no hint of anything unusual.

Her gaze rested on each person, appearing both friendly and dignified.

Once the introductions were finished, the Elf Queen spoke slowly, "Welcome, everyone, to the Elf Kingdom. After I’ve taken care of some official business, I will host you properly."

With that, the Elf Queen turned her gaze to Su Xuan and said softly, "Come with me. I have something to discuss with you."

"Alright."

Su Xuan nodded in agreement. After giving a few brief instructions to Ivsha and the others, he followed the Elf Queen into a side hall of the palace.

As the door slowly closed, the Elf Queen’s noble aura seemed to fall away.

A faint light flickered in her eyes, and her voice became elegant and soft. "I heard you performed a sealing for Paslo?"

"Yes." Su Xuan nodded, mistakenly assuming that Alina had been the one to tell the Elf Queen.

The Elf Queen gently reached out, her fingertips lightly touching Su Xuan’s cheek. Her voice was filled with concern. "Were you injured?"

"No..."

Su Xuan quickly shook his head, feeling a little surprised and flattered by the Elf Queen’s concern.

"It’s good that you weren’t hurt," the Elf Queen said softly. Then, her expression became slightly more formal and serious.

"You’ve completed your task exceptionally well, so I will naturally fulfill your request," she said slowly. "I am free tomorrow evening, but for certain reasons, I cannot leave the borders of the Elf Kingdom."

"I understand," Su Xuan replied with a nod.

This meant the Elf Queen was telling Su Xuan that she could meet with Edith tomorrow evening.

"Oh, right~ There’s one more thing!"

At that moment, however, the Elf Queen’s tone suddenly shifted. Her expression turned serious, tinged with a hint of coldness.

She reached out a fingertip and lightly touched Su Xuan’s forehead. An invisible Power instantly bound his body, rendering him completely immobile.

"Did you or did you not do something to them in the Elf Mother Tree’s Dream Realm?" the Elf Queen’s voice was ice-cold, her tone accusatory.

"?"

Hearing this, Su Xuan’s brow furrowed instantly, and a thread of nervousness grew in his heart.

’Could the Elf Queen have found out what happened in the Elf Mother Tree’s Dream Realm?’

"I..." For a moment, Su Xuan didn’t know how to answer the Elf Queen. After a brief hesitation, he explained, "Everything I did was with their consent. I absolutely had no intention of offending you, Your Majesty."

"Is that so?"

After hearing Su Xuan’s explanation, the Elf Queen slowly withdrew her hand. The invisible pressure vanished along with it, and Su Xuan instantly felt a sense of relief.

"Whew~"

Su Xuan let out a long sigh of relief. Then, he gathered his courage and asked the Elf Queen, "Your Majesty, why do you ask?"

"It’s nothing." The Elf Queen didn’t seem to want to say more, but a faint, rosy blush appeared on her cheeks, as if the topic was difficult to speak about.

"Really... it’s nothing?" Su Xuan asked cautiously.

"Mhm~"

The Elf Queen turned to the side and answered softly, "I’ve just been too tired lately. It’s inevitable that I’d have some nightmares..."
