"Mr. Ryan, please come in. Mistress has been waiting for a long time." The maid who led Ryan to the door of Mistress Herest's study said this respectfully, and once again bowed deeply to Ryan, who turned to her He nodded slightly in return, and then walked in alone.
There are two study rooms in the palace of Mistress Herest that deal with affairs. One of them is responsible for the management of the daily affairs of the dark elves. Unless something extremely important happens, otherwise Mistress Herest will never step into it. She gave these worldly powers to her maids, and she didn't mind her other subordinates adding people to this maids.
The study room that Ryan is entering now is the place where Mother Hester handles private affairs. The protection around this study room is by no means weaker than her own bedroom. Even if her daughter Boyardinas does not Even with the permission of Mother Hester, Ryan has no right to enter. Ryan's residence is in a courtyard not far from here. It is quite convenient to come and go, and there is no need to worry about leaking his whereabouts and other troubles.
This is already the fourth time in three days that Ryan has met with Matron Herest. When they first met, Ryan only felt the unfathomable strength of Matron Herest. However, as time went by, However, Ryan deeply felt the personality charm of this dark elf demigod king. Putting aside the terrifying pseudo-divine power of Matron Herest, her knowledge, intelligence, and experience were far above ordinary people. , if compared with this mistress, Catherine, who had won the hearts of Orlando and others in the imperial capital and was regarded as the queen, was just a child.
When Ryan walked into the study, he saw Madam Hester sitting on a seat covered with soft fur, listening to the reports of several subordinates. After seeing Ryan come in, Madam Hester His mother actually stood up to show her respect to him. Even though Mother Hester just stood there and did not come over to greet him, she still scared the subordinates around her to tremble. This demigod king He has lived in the palace of Drolnimo for tens of thousands of years. It seems that except for the demigod kings of the same realm, no powerful person in the field has ever received such respect, even Aledia and Chris For a capable subordinate like Te, it was just a slight nod of his head.
Although he knew that Mother Hester was probably trying to win over him by doing this, Ryan was still quite pleased with it. Not everyone is qualified to receive the kindness from a demigod king. This only shows that Ryan Already possessing the strength to become a guest at the table of a demigod-level powerhouse, Ryan quickly stepped forward and bowed slightly to Matron Hester to salute, which was regarded as repaying the other party's salute as she stood up. Then he did not When the dark elf matron greeted her, she casually sat on the chair next to her. Ryan's action once again frightened the subordinates. They looked at Ryan with the eyes of a dead person, and in their hearts I couldn't help but started to mourn for him.
Who knew that the hearts of these dark elf subordinates were destined to be shocked today, because instead of blaming Ryan, Mother Hester smiled and pushed the pastry in front of her, and said: "I know you came here in a hurry, I must not have Eat, just wait for me to finish this matter." Ryan didn't refuse. He directly took the plate with exquisite pastries and placed it in front of him, and then put Heris on the table. The special mistress took a round and smooth crystal round bottle on the table in front of her. After a slight sniff and found that it was pure water, she immediately laughed.
Matron Herest's efficiency was very fast. After a difficult experience, the dark elf subordinates could finally leave without having to watch Ryan next to him make all kinds of rude actions. By the time only Herest was left in the study When Mistress Rest and Ryan were alone, the former suddenly smiled at Ryan, who had already eaten all the pastries on the silver plate. She said, "Lian, do you know what I admire most about you?"
Without waiting for Ryan to answer, Mother Hester said the answer: "What I value most is your free and straightforward character. Your strength can be gradually improved, your experience can be slowly increased, and your ability can be cultivated or trained. But this kind of character that despises authority is unique. You must know that any king is just the most humble apprentice from the beginning. If he does not even have the courage to question authority, what qualifications do he have? Climbing to the pinnacle of strength in one step, no matter how strong you are, you are just a submissive thug."
"Am I as good as you said?" Ryan put down the crystal bottle and couldn't help but said, "Your evaluation seems a bit too much. In fact, I just don't like those red tapes."
"Haha, that's just your own opinion." Mother Herest shook her head with a smile and said to Ryan: "Is it true that every king shouts that I will be crowned as a king from the moment he is born? It's nothing more than a bard's trick to please the audience, or a far-fetched fabrication by subordinates who are deliberately trying to please. Let's not talk about how a newborn baby can speak. Even if you really want to do something, it will never be a big talk. Not to mention that every king grew up step by step in bloody battles. Even if he was the reincarnation of a real god and knew his own destiny well, knowing that he could successfully become a god as long as he lived for ten thousand years. Let’s find a way to survive these ten thousand years first.”
Ryan deeply agreed with what Mother Herest said, so he nodded desperately. He heard Mother Herest continue to say: "Speaking of the fact that there are only seven kings in the other world, I think. To go from ordinary to legendary to realm and demigod, ten thousand years is really not a long time. In fact, although the last dozen or so thousand-year wars in other worlds have been extremely brutal, no demigod-level king has ever been born. Even Even the peak domain experts who have mastered some pseudo-divine power skills have not appeared. Ryan, do you know the reason for this?"
Of course, Ryan couldn't know. He was not a demigod and didn't know the history of the other world, so he just shook his head towards Mother Herest. Mother Herest had obviously expected that Ryan would give such a reply. , she continued: "The gap between mortals and gods is by no means something that ordinary people can imagine, but if it is described in simple words, it is very simple. That is the use of power. Those who can use divine power are What gods can’t do is mortals, whether they are legends or realms, they are all the same insignificant mortals in the eyes of real gods.”
"Although I'm not sure how Ryan overturned hundreds of thousands of years of rules in other worlds, you have already mastered some of the techniques of using pseudo-divine power in the legendary stage. You even think that this is just a technique. It's no different from casting spells and fighting spirit, but you don't know that you have unknowingly crossed the gap between mortals and gods. Now the obstacles in front of you have collapsed, and all you lack is the long years of precipitation. That's all, you must have experienced the huge amount of mana consumed when the legend is promoted to the realm. I can only tell you this, if you still want to do the same thing again, even if you concentrate all the power of the powerful people in the entire other world, you will not be able to do it. It’s not enough for you to consume in an instant when you attack the demigod.”
Seeing that Mistress Herest actually talked about demigods, Ryan immediately sat upright. Such secrets could not be found by looking through historical records. Mistress Herest once had such a secret. experience, if you can get her guidance, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Seeing the serious expression on Ryan's face, Matron Herrest couldn't help but smile, and Ryan also noticed from Matron Herister's smile. He seemed to have lost his composure, so he rubbed his nose in embarrassment and returned to his previous free and easy appearance.
"Actually, it's hard for you to get any useful experience from me, because strictly speaking, I have six other existing kings, all of whom are losers." Mother Herest said astonishingly: "Just take me Let me give you an example. Ever since I entered the peak realm and learned to use pseudo-divine power, I have never stopped thinking about and practicing ways to advance. Unfortunately, I have not found the real path until today. Demigod, hehe, the so-called demi-god. God kings are actually just a group of poor people who have no way to advance. Mortals think we are superior, but we think the real gods are not the same."
"Besides, there is no need for Ryan to listen to any experience from me." Herest paused for a moment before speaking again: "You have now learned to use pseudo-divine power, which can be proved by the fact that you use it to make artifacts yourself. , in this case, Ryan, you just need to keep walking on the path you have chosen, and you must know that every god is unique."
"You must know that every god is unique." These words of Mistress Herest awakened Ryan. His eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and there was an expression of surprise on his face. After a moment, Ryan He repeated this sentence silently, and then said to himself: "I went across the mountains and ridges looking for a hatchet to chop firewood, but unexpectedly it was actually pinned to my belt the whole time."
After saying this, Ryan stood up and bowed deeply to Mistress Herest. Mistress Herest actually stood up and returned the bow to Ryan. Her action surprised Ryan, but The voice of Mistress Herest immediately reached his ears: "You don't need to care. The gift I gave you just now was just too early. Ryan, you have already stepped on the demigod." On the threshold of realm, I believe that sooner or later, you will finally have the moment to be on equal footing with us."
