Do you have a problem with necromancers?

Chapter 27 Amazon Memorial Association

“When I was very young, I was sent to the Brightness Church to become a virgin.”

Berthalia sat in Renn's lap, her arms wrapped around his neck, and whispered:
“A virgin is one who dedicates her soul to the Holy Spirit. ‘To abandon all feelings and desires until death’—even if I eventually become queen, I cannot escape the control of this vow. I not only never had a husband in my life, but I also never kept a male concubine.”

"Now that I have died once, neither the Temple of Light nor the Holy Spirit can bind my life anymore."

"If you help me avenge the Brightness Academy and the three noble families, I am willing to spend the rest of my life as your lover and spend every night with you in blissful moments."

Berthalia bit her pearly white teeth and uttered seductive words. After speaking, she deliberately swept her tongue quickly across the corner of her lips to show Renn the amazing agility of her tongue.

After a moment's thought, Raine asked:
"Now that you've stated the price, what about my benefits?"

"What are the benefits?" Bersalia asked with a puzzled look, frowning as she said, "I mean, I'm willing to be your lover."

"You think I don't know?" Renn sneered. "In your dark elf culture and customs, when a woman sleeps with a man, it is assumed that the woman is the one who benefits."

Seeing that her thoughts had been exposed by Renn, Bersalia could only smile awkwardly and change her tune:

"Okay, so what do you want in return for your help?"

"It depends," Ryan replied.

"It depends?" What does that mean?
Berthalia's mind raced.

In fact, given her current "caged bird" status, she has no right to negotiate or make demands with Renn. Whatever Renn wants to do to her, he can simply issue the order through soul binding.

True feelings cannot be forced.

Berthalia's strategy was simple: become Renn's lover, try to win his favor and affection, and ideally, make him fall in love with her, in exchange for greater freedom and autonomy.

Now that Ryan had seen through her rhetoric, she couldn't continue to pester him, lest her favorability towards him decrease. She decided to be frank and see if he was willing to help her.

It depends... He probably means that in his future plans, he might make arrangements for the Red Soil Plateau, but because the time span is too long, he can't give me a definite answer.

If it were any other human noble, Bersalia wouldn't have considered this possibility: Who do you think you are, daring to oppose the Dark Elf Royal Court?

However, given the level of necromancy that Renn has demonstrated, which is almost comparable to that of a world-class boss, Bersalia finds it hard to believe that he would stay peacefully in the Imperial River Bend Province as an unknown and obedient minor nobleman.

“I understand.” Bersalia’s voice grew softer and more seductive, and her body began to writhe restlessly like a water snake. “So, would you like to reconsider the matter of being my lover…”

Before she could finish her seductive words, someone pushed the door open and came in.

With an expression as cold as ice, Ellina looked at Bersalia with increasing disdain as she saw her clinging to Rein.

"Your letter." She tossed the letter onto the table and turned to leave.

Bersalia gave an awkward laugh, got up and chased after Ellina out of the room, not forgetting to give Renn a flirtatious wink before leaving.

Raine ignored the old maid's pretentious act and simply picked up the letter on the table.

The letter must have just arrived; the cover still smelled of raven droppings, and the seal was intact and untouched.

He used a letter cutter to remove the seal and take out the letter inside.

It was sent by Martha Malone from High Rock.

The letter stated that the 200 gold crown coins he donated to the Amazon Memorial Museum had been received.

In recognition of Ryan Fahr's outstanding contributions to the Amazon conservation movement, the Amazon Memorial Association is willing to make an exception and admit Ryan as an honorary member and founding member of the association.

It's important to understand that although this organization is still in its early stages and has a small membership, almost all of them are wives and young ladies from aristocratic families. This single-sex membership brings a high degree of purity and exclusivity, so most members would instinctively oppose the idea of ​​having a nobleman like Renn join.

It can only be said that the power of two hundred gold crown coins was truly immense, directly shattering the invisible barrier between genders. Renn tapped the open envelope on the table, and sure enough, a wooden badge rolled out.

The front of the badge features a clenched fist, while the back bears a proverb in fancy font:

Fight for equality, mercy and justice!

“Justice, justice.” Looking at the wooden badge, many scenes from the game flashed through Renn’s mind, and he couldn’t help but sigh, “How many evils have been committed in your name!”

If the fall of the entire rainforest peninsula was due to everyone's initial lack of understanding of the White Walkers, then the fact that the human empire continued its utterly stupid infighting after Dia led the lizardman refugees into the country only shows how utterly rotten these nobles were.

"Dia!" Renn called Dia, who was still practicing writing her essay in the next room, over. "Have Bersalia come over right now!"

Meanwhile, Bersalia left Rein's room and quickly caught up with Ellina, reaching out to grab her wrist.

"Are you jealous?" she asked with a mischievous smile.

Ellina stopped and said calmly:
"That's a pointless attempt at provocation, and I know you're not that kind of horny slut."

I know why you wanted to seduce him; you don't need to explain why.

Berthalia understood her subtext and offered no further explanation, only whispering a reminder:
"Now, both you and my soul are under his absolute control. Going against him will only lead to a bad end. Given your temperament, I'm afraid you wouldn't have the heart to flatter him."

"Just leave it to me."

“I have no interest in cooperating with you.” Ellina shook off her wrist. “What you do is none of my business.”

“How could that be?” Bersalia said with a smile as she watched Elrina’s departing figure. “Don’t forget, we are prisoners locked in the same cell.”

Until we completely escape from prison, we have no choice but to cooperate.

The Rose Queen had no doubt about this.

She was humming a little tune happily as she walked back to her room when she was suddenly stopped by Dia, who had rushed over.

“Rain wants you to come over here,” Dia reminded her.

"Okay." Bersalia reached out and gently stroked her cheek. "Thank you, sweetheart~"

Dia felt a mixture of shyness and unease, yet also a sense of strangeness and wariness.

Could this ancient dark elf queen have an abnormal sexual orientation?

Bersalia pulled her bathrobe open further, revealing a large expanse of beautiful skin, and swept her hair back, making her look extremely alluring.

She pushed the door open lightly and went in, only to see that Ryan had just finished writing the letter at his desk and put the quill back into the ink bottle.

“Here you go.” He handed the letter to Berthalia. “Write another enthusiastic letter of self-recommendation, based on what I wrote in the letter, expressing your strong desire to join this association.”

"What association?" Bersalia took the letter and read it carefully. "Tell me the specific details."

The letter stated that Raine had declined the honorary membership and founding elder titles awarded to him by the "Amazon Memorial Association," and instead recommended another dark elf female noblewoman to inherit these two titles, along with the corresponding qualifications and status.

To paraphrase Ryan's reason for recommending her, "Her compassion and mercy for the vulnerable far surpasses mine by a hundred or a thousand times."

“You’ll understand once you join,” Renn commanded. “Maintain your prestige and status within the association as much as possible.”

"Then, report to me regularly on all kinds of developments within the association, no matter how small."
