Overlord: I’ve Been Recruiting Followers in Another World

"Is that so..."

King Ramposa III, after learning from Prince Zanac what kind of group had held them for several days, felt both relieved and worried.

The main reason Prince Zanac and his entourage were held by the Church of Destiny was because of Princess Renner. Of course, it was a good thing that Princess Renner was not treated harshly because of it.

However, there was no interrogation, only mere house arrest. This might imply two possible courses of action from the Church of Destiny.

The first scenario was that the Church of Destiny already had ample evidence and could confirm Princess Renner's collusion with the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick without the need for cross-examination.

The second scenario was that the Church of Destiny did not intend to deal with Princess Renner themselves from the beginning, but rather were prepared to let the Re-Estize Kingdom conduct the trial, and they merely desired justice.

Currently, the second scenario seemed more likely.

But King Ramposa III always felt there was something not so simple behind it. If this Princess Renner matter was not handled properly, the Re-Estize Kingdom would face an unimaginable catastrophe.

"Oh, Renner...."

King Ramposa III couldn't help but look at the carriage ceiling and let out a long sigh.

Time passed, and night fell quickly.

In the capital of another country, a hundred miles away, a special reception convention was about to begin.

This was the Draconic Kingdom, a human race nation founded two hundred years ago by the Colorful Dragon Lord, one of the True Dragon Lords who ruled the New World and a user of [Wild Magic].

And the Colorful Dragon Lord was the most special existence among all True Dragon Lords.

Generally, there was reproductive isolation among different races in the New World. If two of the three races combined with each other, they would not be able to bear offspring.

However, it was not absolute. Powerful races like dragons, demons, and angels could ignore the limitations of reproductive isolation and reproduce with all living beings.

Ability was just one aspect. Considering the size gap, body structure, and other issues, most dragons would not choose to combine with aliens, but the Colorful Dragon Lord was an exception.

He was very interested in spreading his own bloodline, and had even developed a special transformation magic as a result, which could change his form.

The contemporary leader of the Draconic Kingdom, Dragon Princess Draudillon Oriculus, was a descendant of the combined reproduction of the Colorful Dragon Lord and the first Dragon King's Daughter, inheriting one-eighth of the Colorful Dragon Lord's bloodline.

According to the original author, the Colorful Dragon Lord's behavior of "sowing seeds everywhere" was just like humans in the eyes of other dragon species. They saw their own race and goats acting while shouting "hurry up and get pregnant!" Almost, a total of ten perverts.

Back to the topic, although the Draconic Kingdom was founded with the help of the Colorful Dragon Lord, he didn't care much for this human nation. The Colorful Dragon Lord usually lived on the peak of a mountain called the Central Continent Mountain Range, the highest mountain in the New World.

So the Draconic Kingdom did not receive much help because of the Colorful Dragon Lord, and often faced invasions from the orc kingdom bordering to the east. Since the ability value of the human race was too low compared to orcs, they were completely inferior in warfare.

In order to maintain the country's existence, the Draconic Kingdom's military system adopted a war strategy where all citizens were soldiers, and also donated high amounts of money to the Church of Destiny every year in exchange for the Church of Destiny's military support, making the country's finances entirely in deficit.

Even so, the Draconic Kingdom struggled to resist the orc invasions.

Had it not been for the fact that the orc kingdom always regarded the Draconic Kingdom as a hunting ground to automatically increase food, and never attacked with full force, perhaps the Draconic Kingdom would have been destroyed long ago.

The Imperial Palace of the Draconic Kingdom.

Due to the country's finances, the hall symbolizing royal power did not appear overly ornate, but was instead boldly and magnificently decorated, without losing its decorum.

A red carpet, stretching from the great hall's door to its innermost part, stopped before the throne stairs.

On the platform, a smaller girl sat upon a gilded throne.

She wore a small crown on her head, soft long black hair cascading down her back, and a black gown that accentuated her beautiful legs.

The girl was none other than the contemporary queen of the Draconic Kingdom, Dragon Princess Draudillon Oriculus.

Standing beside her throne, a middle-aged man, dressed nobly and wearing a monocle, was the current chancellor of the Draconic Kingdom, Leina Herman.

The appointed time was approaching, and Draudillon couldn't help but look at Leina Herman, whose calf she gently kicked.

Leina Herman glanced back slightly, then asked the blond-haired man below the queen's rank, "Has he not arrived yet, Lord Quinthia, the esteemed guest from the Church of Destiny?"

"My Lord Chancellor, Her Majesty Oriculus, please wait a moment, I think..."

The gentle-faced man with a smile was none other than a member of the Church of Destiny, Quinthia.

Pressed by Leina Herman, he was about to explain something when he was interrupted by a sudden communication spell.

After two seconds of being interrupted, Quinthia smiled and asked for instructions from both of them, Draudillon Oriculus, "Your Majesty Oriculus, some Lords of the Church of Destiny have locked onto the spatial coordinates. They asked me to request instructions on my behalf. Can they be allowed to teleport?"

"That's it! Okay, I allow it!"

Draudillon Oriculus's expression was no different from that of an ordinary naive girl, and she seemed so interested in teleportation magic that she couldn't wait to see it.

It made perfect sense.

Because according to Quinthia, the people from the Church of Destiny were in the Re-Estize Royal Capital cities, hundreds of miles away. This long-distance spatial cross-domain magic was Fifth Tier magic or lower.

This meant that the people who could use this magic had successfully stepped into the realm of heroes.

Children adored heroes, especially in the Draconic Kingdom, where powerful adventurers and workers were highly respected by the populace because they participated in the war against the Orc Kingdom's invasion and were very active.

However, Quinthia's smile on his face tightened slightly when he saw Draudillon Oriculus's appearance.

Because although Her Majesty the Dragon Queen looked very young, perhaps about ten years old, her actual age was actually close to sixty years old, and she was definitely a grandmother-level being in normal human terms.

Cannot be too fake.

Quinthia reminded himself, then bowed slightly to Draudillon Oriculus, relaying the licensed intel to the man on the other end of the magical communication.

In the next second, with everyone in the Draconic Kingdom watching, there were some fluctuations in space, and about a dozen more people appeared in the hall.

The leader was a young girl in a white priestess robe.

Seemingly confirming everyone's identity, her eyes swept around, and finally stopped on Draudillon Oriculus's body, and she bowed respectfully:

"Your Majesty Oriculus, Queen of the Draconic Kingdom, I am Enri Emmot, High Priestess of the Church of Destiny, who has come to the kingdom by the will of the gods."
