Chapter 98: 79 In a state of extreme anger, Morgan charged up (please subscribe)_2

Even so, to ensure the smooth implementation of this policy, Sigma took the initiative to lead by example and decreed that after his death, any of his concubines that wished could remarry.

Of course, since Sigma lived for a very long time, not to mention his sons, even several generations of his grandsons were exhausted to death by him, so there has not been any concubine who has remarried up till now. However, if Morgan really chose to remarry, no one could oppose it.

As for whether anyone would dare to marry her, that is another matter entirely.

"Queen, have you ever considered remarriage?" whispered the Demon-like voice, echoing in Morgan’s ear.

"Never!"

"Is that so? Rather than remarrying, do you prefer the thrill of immorality?" Le Cheng watched her with delight, "Coincidentally, I feel the same. Instead of my own wife, I actually prefer to have an affair with someone else’s wife... just like we are doing now."

Morgan’s eyes instantly widened, "When have I ever been romantically involved with you!"

"Isn’t that so? We are already lying in the same bed. Anybody who sees us would think, Queen, that you have engaged in an act of immorality."

"..."

Le Cheng once again leaned close to Morgan’s mouth, whispering, "Queen, you must be anticipating something happening, right?"

Morgan instinctively moved back and coldly said, "What nonsense are you spouting? I have no such expectations for ’that sort of thing.’"

"Oh, you know what I’m referring to?"

"..."

"Lying is useless, you know. If from the beginning you had no thoughts about me, you would never have agreed to this bet. After all, for a girl who has never done ’that sort of thing’ before, could she really accept lying face to face with a man on the same bed?"

"I only did it for... Wait, what did you say just now?" Morgan was speaking when suddenly her expression changed.

"Isn’t that so?" Le Cheng smiled slightly, "If I’m not mistaken, you’re still a virgin, aren’t you? This is probably why you are so averse to the future outlined by the prophecy. Rather than worrying about losing your chastity, what concerns you more is losing the Witch’s power."

"But even so, you still accepted the bet. So, what prompted you to make that decision?"

"For the Empire?"

"That’s not it, right? After all, we had discussed everything, even without this bet, I would still bring divine protection to this world. So, this is actually just about the relationship between the two of us and has nothing to do with the safety of the Empire."

"Then, let’s analyze this more deeply... First of all, you’ve said yourself that the future predicted by the prophecy is 100% accurate and never wrong. Because it is your prophecy, you understand the power you possess more than anyone, so, could it be that in your subconscious, you have already accepted such a future?"

Morgan: "..."

"Then, in a situation where the future is inevitable, you want to preserve your powers as much as possible. My identity as a Divine Envoy gives you a glimmer of hope, thinking that even if we did have a relationship and it led to the decline of your Witch’s power, as long as the divine protection blesses this world and you are in the position of Vice Sect Hierarch, you would still potentially obtain new powers through the divine."

"So, when I proposed the bet, you agreed readily because whether you win or lose, you could secure enough initiative for yourself."

"Of course, this is from a perspective of interest. But what about emotions? If you really hated me, you would never agree to sleep on the same bed with me... in the end, the resistance and aversion you have towards me are not as strong as you have demonstrated. It’s just out of concern for reputation and propriety, just too embarrassed, that’s all. And this bet I’ve made, gives you ample opportunity to naturally accept the future predicted by the prophecy, right?"

"You..."

Morgan opened her mouth in disbelief, looking at Le Cheng.

She felt like an onion being peeled layer by layer by Le Cheng.

As Le Cheng said, it was precisely because she had utmost confidence in her own power that she believed the future foretold by the Crystal Ball was certain to come true. The only uncertainty was how that future would become real. Hence, when Le Cheng made that bet, she went with the flow and agreed to it, treating it as a gamble, through which she hoped to see the future more clearly.

If possible, she wanted to gain some initiative, rather than passively accepting that fate.

Because... the damnable charm of this man, she truly couldn’t resist.

Yet she never expected that even such thoughts of hers would be seen through by Le Cheng.

Afterwards, Le Cheng moved closer again, their lips barely an inch apart.

"So, Queen, in front of me, you don’t need to hide anything. Just show your true self, good or bad, I will accept it all, including those desires you can’t suppress..."

Sigh—

Le Cheng’s deep voice, like the murmur of an ancient god, completely crushed Morgan’s last line of defense.

Long ago, a time so distant that she had not yet become a Witch, Morgan started to suppress her emotions.

The first time was when she had to agree to marry an old man under her father’s command. Powerless, she could only press down the rage and resentment in her heart and choose to silently accept her fate. Although awakening to the Witch’s powers allowed her to avoid marrying the old man, the emotions she had suppressed were not released. Instead, they built up further, settling deep in her heart through lonely and solitary training.
