Chapter 1086: The Golden Palace
Nonetheless, it was a fair exchange, so he nodded in response. "If you want to request, there\'s no need to go through such measures. You are now a part of Paradise, Goddess Ilse, holding an esteemed position even greater than mine as the Supreme Leader of Paradise. Whatever you desire will be carefully catered to and fulfilled."
\'As long as it\'s within reason,\' Orion thought, keeping that part to himself.
He understood what Aerialia told him and realized that if he were a divine being in a similar situation, he\'d prefer to be respected for his divine status rather than treated like a tool for solving all problems.
"So, what is it that you want?" Orion asked, his expression serious.
Ilse furrowed her brows at Orion\'s words but nodded internally.
After her discussion with her children, her perception of Orion improved significantly, especially after discovering his unique ability to impregnate women of any race and the Villagers\' uniqueness.
But that didn\'t mean she would show it openly. Still, she was glad Orion recognized her divine status and wasn\'t completely blinded by his absolute control over her. It was commendable.
"I want permission to create my Divine Apostle the next time I awaken. With them, I\'ll be able to grow stronger quickly and provide an opportunity for Paradise to expand its forces," Ilse replied.
Orion nodded thoughtfully. "Is that all?" he asked.
"Yes, that\'s all," Ilse replied.
"In that case, you can do as you wish. You can also choose from other races to become your Divine Apostles," Orion nodded.
Suddenly, Ilse yawned tiredly, paying no heed to the rest of Orion\'s worlds. "I need to rest for today. I\'ll continue next time I awaken."
"Wait a minute!" Orion said abruptly, causing Ilse to stop and turn toward him with a frown.
"I\'m about to leave Paradise to set our plan in motion, but I can\'t afford to leave it unprotected. I need your assurance that you\'ll do whatever it takes to safeguard Paradise if any danger arises," he said earnestly.
Though he could issue a command, Orion knew that to build a stable relationship with Ilse, it was better to ask her directly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"You don\'t need to worry about Paradise\'s safety," Ilse replied. "I will protect it with my life. If I failed to do so, it would only reflect my inability to safeguard my children and territory as a goddess. And I\'m sure you wouldn\'t tolerate my inaction while your people suffered."
"Thank you," Orion said, exhaling softly in relief. At least he was making progress.
Ilse turned and walked towards the Prismerions, halting before them. "Don\'t forget to practice the techniques I\'ve taught you diligently. If any of you progress well enough, I\'ll consider you first for becoming my Divine Apostles," Ilse said.
"We\'ll do our best, Goddess!" all three hundred Prismerions responded loudly, their tones filled with joy and anticipation.
\'Techniques,\' Orion thought, his mind racing to uncover how they had discussed and shared techniques with all three hundred Prismerions in such a short time.
Orion focused on Ilse as she turned around, respectfully nodded at Aerialia, and walked back into her Golden Palace. The doors retracted into the walls and firmly closed behind her.
Selene swiftly approached Orion from the side. She quickly wrapped her arms around him and pulled him forward. "These were the best hours of my life," she said.
Everyone was already aware of Queen Selene\'s and Shani\'s relationship with the Supreme Leader, a unity among three key leaders. No one opposed it; they were excited about the engagement and had even taken the opportunity to celebrate it in their homes and families.
They prayed that the Supreme Leader would also take them or their family members as one of his wives, granting them the opportunity to ascend to the top of the hierarchy of Paradise.
Even the Pixie Kingdom was moved and began sending their princesses to Orion\'s manor, hoping that he would choose someone of royal blood to further solidify their position within his household, just like the Prismerions.
Orion didn\'t dissuade them but made Maeve, Willow Breezeflutter, and Whisperwing--his other Pixie wives vet them thoroughly while he made the final decision.
Others had already begun to realize that the Supreme Leader\'s household was a powerhouse due to the number of key leaders, powerful warriors, and individuals each holding essential positions within Paradise.
It was not far-fetched, as they didn\'t know what to call the children born to his Prismerions wives and him or those born to his Pixie wives. Former Village Chief Brane and Zogar were also curious to know if this was premeditated, to which Orion disappointed them by denying
it.
The Villagers, Prismerions, and Pixies had already slowly begun to spend intimate sessions with one another, but becoming pregnant or impregnating someone from a completely different race was a challenge in itself. This caused many of them to revert to their respective
races.
Only those who did not care about having children maintained relationships together. Of course, others were still persistent and did not want to give up. Orion could only wish them good luck, as he didn\'t know how to halt such situations without causing conflict.
The Prismerions bowed respectfully towards both of them before turning around and leaving one by one. They couldn\'t wait to return home and digest everything they had learned. "Hours? What do you mean by that? Weren\'t you in there for just forty minutes?" Orion asked confusion etched on his face.
"It might look like forty minutes, but it wasn\'t. According to Goddess Ilse, every hour within the Golden Palace equalled twenty minutes outside. This is only the timescale of the Golden Palace, as Goddess Ilse said she could manipulate it down to a minute or even several seconds when she becomes more powerful," Selene responded, excitedly revealing everything she had experienced within the Golden Palace.
"That wasn\'t all. It felt as though we were on an entire continent. It was as if the Golden Palace was a world of its own. It was astonishing."
