Overlord: I’ve Been Recruiting Followers in Another World

He had added only two items to the gift list earlier.

The first was to request the Dragon Princess to fully assist the Church of Destiny in establishing temples throughout the Draconic Kingdom and making the church the state religion. In the future, the successor to the Draconic Kingdom's throne would have to be appointed by him.

Since the Draconic Kingdom was already on the verge of ruin, Kael had no intention of dissembling at this point. He forthrightly stated his desire to control the Draconic Kingdom.

As for the second condition, it was used to moderate the sense of oppression caused by the first condition.

Its content was that the Dragon Princess must unite with him and bear descendants carrying his bloodline, from whom the heir to the throne would be chosen in the future.

"..."

Draudillon fell silent, merely gazing at Kael's smiling profile. She pondered the advantages and disadvantages of the deal.

She was fifty-seven years old, far past the age of an innocent girl. As the queen of a nation, she no longer felt shame or resistance towards issues like partners and political marriages.

The Draconic Kingdom had long been oppressed by the Orc Kingdom, and she had worried about it for a long time.

If this matter could be resolved and the people of the Draconic Kingdom could live a good life, there was no harm in using herself as compensation.

She had seriously seen the power of the Church of Destiny yesterday. If evaluated purely from this aspect, they were indeed ideal partners.

Besides, the Draconic Kingdom's current situation was dire, and she seemingly had no other choice.

At least I no longer have to drink myself into a muddy stupor. Writing letters of credence and encouragement to the commanders on the front lines. That childish handwriting is really hard to imitate, okay!

Draudillon thought happily in her distress.

After that, she took a deep breath and smiled at Kael, "Your Excellency, if you can truly save our nation from peril, then I can promise all your demands. Please also promise not to deceive me, otherwise I will be deeply distressed."

Hearing that Draudillon had agreed to his terms, Kael also stopped moving forward and turned to face the beautiful royal sister.

He then raised his palm and with a serious face promised Draudillon, "As I swear by my own honor, I will certainly alleviate the crisis facing the Draconic Kingdom and lead all nations to a glorious future."

".... Then the fate of the Draconic Kingdom is entrusted to you!"

Sensing the sincerity in Kael's tone, Draudillon also appeared serious and bowed deeply to Kael.

Though merely a verbal agreement, the cooperation between the two parties was officially established at this moment.

Kael smiled again, extended a hand and helped Draudillon to her feet, and said affectionately, "Draudillon, may I call you that from now on?"

The custom of naming in other worlds was similar to that in the West. If the relationship between two people was average, they would basically only call each other by their surnames, with at most honorifics like 'adult' and 'Your Majesty'.

If you called someone by their given name directly, it meant that the relationship between the two was extremely close.

The agreement had been made, and the two would have an intimate relationship beyond their friends in the future. Naturally, Draudillon would not refuse Kael's request and nodded with a smile, "Of course."

"Okay, so Draudillon, do you know what power you can gain by becoming my believer?"

"Huh?" Draudillon's eyes shifted slightly, and she suddenly had a premonition in her heart, but she didn't say it directly. Instead, she nodded, "Miss Enri explained to us earlier that it can make ordinary people grow tremendously in a very short time. It's truly amazing, and it's a miracle that there's no need to fear death from now on."

"Almost."

Kael smiled faintly and continued, "As a gift for our agreement, I will bestow this power upon you now, do you desire it?"

It would be foolish not to want it!

The Draconic Kingdom had always relied on steel-class adventurers and workers for their strength, which could help the nation resist the Orc Kingdom's invasion.

In fact, Draudillon had worried previously that sooner or later she would be "eaten" by the leader of Crystal Tear, namely Sevelare (referring to the sexual aspect).

The queen of a nation so desperate that she had to rely on an adventurer, and she was helpless, okay?

"If it is your kindness, then I accept it freely."

Draudillon accepted without kneeling, and then asked, "Miss Enri said this requires a ceremony, what should we prepare?"

"Nothing is needed at all."

Kael shook his head, then suddenly wrapped his arm around Draudillon's waist and pulled her into his embrace.

"Ah!"

Draudillon, caught off guard, cried out. She only felt that she had pressed herself against a warm body, and a mature man's breath suddenly brushed her face.

Slightly startled, but she quickly calmed down and asked Kael hesitantly, "Your... Your Excellency, you..."

"I think you're different from ordinary believers, so I plan to perform the ceremony in an exclusive manner."

Kael explained with a smile, and then activated the effect of [Blessing of the Supreme Being] on his body.

A golden magic circle appeared at Draudillon's feet, and then light shone out, covering her delicate body little by little.

Feeling a mysterious power entering her body, Draudillon curiously raised her palm, her mind slightly adrift.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kael slowly lowered his head.

"Hmm!"

A warm, soft invasion came, and Draudillon's eyes suddenly widened. Without any experience, she could only stand rigidly, blankly.

For a long time, the golden magic circle disappeared without a trace, and the intertwined lips and teeth separated then.

Draudillon's face flushed crimson, and her breathing was slightly hurried. Seeing Kael's handsome face so close before her, she felt her heart pound furiously.

For the first time in several decades of her life, she didn't know how to react to such an experience.

Quite amusing.

Kael gazed at Draudillon's slightly awkward face, raising the corner of his mouth slightly, stepping forward and saying softly, "Draudillon, I think our relationship can be closer, do you not mind?"

"Eh!? Wait... wait a moment!"

Draudillon's confused thoughts suddenly awoke after hearing Kael's provocative question, and she quickly said, "Your... Your Excellency of Destiny! It seems too fast, doesn't it? I'm not ready at all!"

Meaning, is it alright to prepare?

The refusal was unclear.

Kael deduced this from Draudillon's reaction and answer.

Originally, he would only tease this beautiful royal sister, but now that he had an opportunity, he naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to give up.

"I don't think this is fast at all. Don't we already have a consensus? This is also to better fulfill the agreement."

Kael said in an ambiguous tone.

Warm breath brushed Draudillon's face, and the strange feeling from just now suddenly surfaced in her mind. Her brain abruptly hung, and she hesitated and said, "This, this is true, only..."

"Only what?"

A soft voice sounded in her ear, and Draudillon suddenly felt something touch her calf.

When she came to her senses, she realized that the two of them were no longer in the corridor, but a seemingly luxurious room.

As Kael gently guided her down with his arm around her waist and her back touched the soft bed, a thought flashed through Draudillon's mind.

It's over.
