Start with Island Lord

The last time I went to Swan Lake, it was a cold winter.

This time I came to Swan Lake, the weather was the same, even worse.

The dark clouds were low, the cold wind was howling, the tiny snowflakes were flying everywhere, the grass and trees by the lake were all withered, and the whole world was bleak and gray.

Just like Dora's mood at the moment.

"Time flies so fast, a year has passed in the blink of an eye."

I vaguely remember that when I was a child, time was very slow, so slow that a few minutes felt very unbearable, but as I grew older and experienced more, time became faster and faster.

It seemed that a year had passed in just a blink of an eye.

What's more amazing is that although a year has passed, I haven't changed, and the world doesn't seem to have changed at all.

It seems that everything is eternal.

However, this numb mentality, like the stubborn rocks and plants in the mountains, soon dissipated.

She found that she herself had not changed, and the capital of the Elf Empire, Atlasen, had not changed much, but the city of Mondania in Veran had undergone earth-shaking changes.

A year ago, when she came here, she saw construction sites everywhere, as ugly as scars on the earth.

But when she came back a year ago, the original scars had basically disappeared, and they were basically transformed into bright and beautiful buildings, and there were many more things she had never seen before.

But on the edge of the bright city, many new "scars" have grown.

Dora sighed with admiration: "Ah~ The short-lived species are really energetic, tossing from morning to night, just like a tireless spinning top."

Some envy the vitality of the short-lived species, but at the same time, she also despises their short-sightedness and blindness.

While sighing, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her mind.

"Ms. Dora, I thought you would never leave Atlasen again."

Atlasen is the capital of the Holy Elf Empire, which means the city of eternal life.

Dora was slightly surprised, but then relieved: 'I didn't hide myself carefully this time, it's normal for him to find me. '

So, she began to locate the other party's soul, thinking about talking to him, and then she found that something was wrong.

"Hey~ How come your strength has increased so much?"

She remembered clearly that a year ago, the opponent's soul strength was Legend 7, and he only reached it with a Legend cap, and his body was only Legend 3.

It was still outstanding, but far worse than her.

But now, she found that the opponent's soul strength exceeded Legend 12, and was only one step away from her.

Increasing by 5 levels in one year, it was like a dream.

"Your strength?!"

The voice in her mind smiled: "Didn't I tell you that I have a divine weapon that can see the truth? Why don't you believe it?"

Dora still didn't believe in the artifact. Of course, she also thought that Rosen must have something very powerful in his hands.

"Where are you now?"

"Go north, about 20 kilometers, there is a hill with a steep peak. I built a small manor on the top of the mountain specifically for snow viewing."

Dora thought and used the infinite phase transfer technique directly.

In less than ten seconds, she stood at the door of the manor.

The door was originally closed, but with her arrival, it opened silently, and Dora walked in.

Going around the secondary wall that blocked the view, she saw a very quiet courtyard. There was a tall, still lush tree in the yard, and there was a pavilion under the tree to shelter from the rain.

A circle of faint runes surrounded the pavilion to block the cold wind and chill.

Rosen was half lying on a spacious warm chair, with a small stove and a small wooden table beside him. The fire was jumping and burning, and the wine pot on it emitted a rich aroma of wine. On the small wooden table were several fragrant small dishes.

Dora hesitated for a moment, but still walked in.

The experience of dealing with him last time told her that the emperor of the Natural Empire was a very rational person who could control his desires very well.

Because last time she found that the other party had thought about it several times, but he finally held back.

Rosen did not react much, and did not even open his eyes. He just moved his body to the side and patted the soft chair beside him.

"Come, sit next to me."

Dora has lived for more than 7,000 years and no longer cares about any rules. Facing this person who once defeated her, she was not arrogant.

There was no one else around anyway, and she was covered by a magical dress, so she did as she was told.

After lying down, she found that she could drink warm wine, taste delicious food, and watch the snow falling in the mountains, which was really comfortable.

"Your Majesty Rosen, you are quite leisurely."

Rosen raised his hand and touched Dora's body, and then he saw her magic dress, and then naturally stroked the smooth and warm silk.

Dora was startled and tensed up: "What are you doing?"

"Oh~~Don't be nervous, we are old friends, isn't it normal to be close?"

"This is not normal!"

Rosen ignored her and asked: "The lady must have something to ask me, just say it directly."

Seeing that Rosen didn't make any further moves, and considering that she was not his opponent.

Dora could only endure this somewhat overstepping action.

"The latest news is that my master has accelerated his pace of return and will be back in two years at the latest. And he is not coming back alone, but with two equally powerful companions."

Rosen stroked Wen Yu with one hand and picked up the warm wine with the other. He tasted it happily and said with a smile: "Three powerful gods? Interesting."

The powerful gods are not only powerful, but also have some very powerful things in their hands. Naturally, they should not be underestimated.

But then again, he also has unique skills, and there are quite a few.

And for his unique skills, there is no difference between one god and three gods.

So he still relaxed.

Dora frowned: "What do you mean? This is not a trivial matter!"

She originally had the confidence to resist, but now she is almost desperate. As a result, this mortal emperor did not take it seriously at all.

The wine was a bit strong, which made Rosen grin: "Do you want to try it? The recently released Mondania ice liquor tastes very good."

Dora was in no mood to drink. Seeing Rosen's hands still touching her body, she became more and more irritated and grabbed his hand.

"Rosen, stop it, I want to talk to you about serious things!"

Rosen finally showed a serious look on his face: "I have a countermeasure, but if you want to know, you have to drink a few glasses with me."

Dora was stunned and very curious in her heart. After a little hesitation, she agreed and took a sip of the wine.

After taking a sip, she coughed repeatedly due to the spiciness. Then, she felt a stream of heat flowing down her stomach, turning into a ball of fire flowing all over her body.

At first, she thought it was the effect of strong liquor, but after a few seconds, Dora felt something was wrong, and her face changed color.

"This is not liquor! It's medicine! You drugged me!"

"Hahaha~~ That's right, it's medicine!"

Rosen laughed, with a little pride on his face.

He could actually subdue the Moon Goddess in many ways, but tricking her into drinking was the most labor-saving, haha.

Dora felt that there seemed to be a strange force drilling around in her body, making her sore and weak all over, and even difficult to condense her magic power, so she could only collapse powerlessly on the warm chair.

Dora was terrified: "Is this poison? Are you going to kill me!"

Rosen shook his head: "It's not poison, and it's not even all medicine, because it's fine for me."

Dora had also discovered it, because Rosen had been drinking, and he was not abnormal at all. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't drink it.

After taking a few sips of wine and a few bites of snacks, Rosen smiled and said, "The effect of the medicine will last for half an hour."

"After half an hour, you will be both the apostle of the Lord of Truth and my apostle."

"If there is a conflict between the two sides, you will have to listen to me in the end."

Dora was shocked and immediately thought of a possibility.

She asked repeatedly:

"You have cracked the mystery of the tree branch of life, right?"

"Do you really have a divine tool to see the truth?"

Rosen did not answer but asked, "Do you really want to know?"

"Really want to know?"

"Yes."

Rosen leaned close to her ear and whispered his conditions.

After the voice was finished, the eyes of the noble upper elf suddenly widened.

"You might as well kill me directly!"

Rosen did not force him, but waited patiently.

About half an hour later, he had a thought, and the magic power flowed, and he used the magic mantra to state his conditions again.

Dora found that her body followed the instructions meticulously, as if the body was not her own, but Rosen's.

Rosen squinted his eyes, enjoying the clumsy service of the upper elf Moon Goddess, and couldn't help laughing.

"Ms. Dora, you see, you have to listen to me in the end."

With these words, Dora found that she had regained some control of her body. She was angry and shocked: "I don't understand!"

Rosen used the mana mantra again to release the control of the other party, and then said: "I don't like to force people. If you take the initiative to serve me, I will tell you."

Dora shook her head: "No, Druitan has an obsessive-compulsive disorder of pursuing perfection. Once he finds that I am not perfect, he will decisively abandon me."

Rosen smiled: "Don't worry, I can fix it if it is broken, and I can fix it so that Druitan can't see it."

Dora had nothing to say, and she was silent for a long time before she spoke: "Rosen, you are such a bastard!"

She misjudged this guy, underestimated his ability, and overestimated his morality.

Now, this guy is not her ally, but her new nightmare!

The reason why nightmares are nightmares is because there is no choice.

So, she could only take the initiative to get up and sit on Rosen's lap.

After being served diligently, Rosen was satisfied.

"I have completely cracked the secret of the tree branch of life, and I have also completely freed you from Dritan's control."

"Of course, in order to avoid being noticed by Dritan, I still retain his control channel, so you can still feel Dritan's control intention, but as long as you don't want to, he can't force you."

Dora lay softly beside Rosen, and the more she listened, the more incredible she felt. She probably knew that the other party used a method similar to the elf fruit.

But how to use it, and why can it break Dritan's control.

She didn't know at all.

"You are not a mortal, you are a god, right?"

Since she was willing to guess so, Rosen was naturally happy to follow her guess.

"Yes, I am the elemental incarnation of the true God in the world, and my body possesses supreme power."

"I like playing games very much, all kinds of games."

"I like watching my opponents jumping around in front of me, until they think they are about to win, and then I slap them to the ground."

"The transition from ecstasy to despair is very interesting."

This time, Dora believed it completely.

She didn't know how to describe her mood, which was very complicated, but mainly awe.

The desire to resist was completely gone, leaving only obedience.

"Supreme Power. Is it Legend 19?"

Rosen shook his head: "A little higher."

If you want to brag, you have to brag big.

Dora was so shocked that her hair stood on end: "Oh~ You joked with me like this a year ago, right?"

"Yes, isn't it interesting?"

Dora thought to herself, 'What the hell is interesting', but of course she didn't dare to say it out loud, and she flattered: "Interesting."

Rosen could see that she was not sincere, and couldn't help laughing again.

He thought to himself: "The upper elves are really used to being dogs. After changing their masters, they adapt very quickly."

From the perspective of social development, this master-servant relationship is naturally far behind the current era, but for the master, it is very refreshing.

Just think about it, such a beautiful and almost perfect, and at the same time the most honorable Majesty of the Moon Goddess among billions of elves, flattering him, wagging his tail like a pug. Oh no, it should be shaking his butt to beg for mercy, that taste is ten times sweeter than the best wine in the world.

'The taste of absolute power is really fascinating. ’

He couldn’t help but have an idea: ‘Should I, like Druitan, turn the Natural Empire into my elves? ’

As long as you are willing to spend time and energy, this is completely possible.

But this idea was dismissed after a while.

‘The reason why power is sweet is not because of power itself, but because of the process of conquest. ’

‘If I turn all the human race into my lapdogs, then the world will be meaningless. ’

But no matter what, conquering the Moon God still makes him feel very happy.

He was so excited that he went to His Majesty the Elf to do things, and the other party could only carefully hide his dissatisfaction and try his best to cater to him.

Afterwards, Rosen lay lazily and said, "Ms. Dora, I am different from Dritan."

Dora didn't say anything, but her heart was full of resentment: "Yes, you are different, you are much worse than him, and you almost broke me down."

Rosen seemed to be unaware of her thoughts and said slowly:

"Dritan treats mortals as tools to be consumed, but I treat mortals as flowers in the garden."

"I will spend time to cultivate each flower. If it grows well, like a delicate flower like your majesty, I will care more about it. If it doesn't look good, I won't treat it harshly."

"Because I know very well that there is no so-called "perfection" in the world."

"Everything is Everything is imperfect, with both advantages and disadvantages. "

"Roses are beautiful, but they are easily destroyed by wind and frost. Wild flowers are inconspicuous, but their vitality is very tenacious."

"If someone pursues perfection, then the essence is to regard himself as the supreme creator, and to determine the direction of the world with his own aesthetics. The essence is still to pursue absolute power."

"In my opinion, this person is both arrogant and ignorant, and even more boring."

"So, if you help me manage this beautiful mortal garden with your heart, I will not only help you, but also help the elves get rid of the so-called Lord of Truth."

Dora listened quietly, listening casually at first, but gradually listening seriously.

She immediately thought of the natural empire created by the other party, from which she could clearly see that the other party was not lying.

This almost completely dissipated the little dissatisfaction in her heart.

"Master, what should I do next?"

"Of course I will return to Atlasen and continue to be the Moon Goddess of the Elves."

"But... But I am not perfect now."

"Simple."

Rosen restored it to its original state after some operation, and then said: "I will give you a secret channel later, and we can contact each other at any time."

"If you are in danger, you can also call me for help, and I will come to rescue you immediately."

Dora breathed a sigh of relief, and there was no fear in her heart.

She naturally began to serve her new master.

"Master, there is one more thing."

She told the story of Osera sending the golden warriors to take revenge.

After listening, Rosen laughed: "Interesting~ Really interesting~ It can be fun again."

Dora saw this and couldn't help thinking: "The temperament of this great man is a bit like the legendary witch."

Rosen learned her thoughts through the secret information channel set up in advance, and laughed in his heart: "I just want you to think so."
