The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 449 - 340: Rankings



Xiya and Hilvy being ranked first as Divine Consorts may spark some controversy, but it’s ultimately a meaningless debate.

Because as long as Lynn himself has no objection, then there is no objection; other people’s opinions hold no value next to the thoughts of a True God.

Following the Elf Twins’ entrance, the third person to arrive indeed stirred some silent discussions.

It was Vivian Jones, someone highly regarded yet not fully acknowledged.

She was Lynn’s first rumored girlfriend, so logically she should rank among the front lines without issue.

However, speaking of her background, among all fifteen Divine Consorts, hers is nearly the lowest, just slightly better than the suddenly emerged Human Race girl Angela, making her second to last.

In aristocratic families, marriages are arranged based on equal status, considering lineage. Vivian Jones was merely the daughter of a former Marquis, and though now Marquis Jones’s title has risen, compared to others with statuses like Empress, Queen, Prince, Princess, or Saintess, it’s somewhat lacking.

It’s not that she’s unworthy of the position, just that many outrank her, such as those with the surname Windsor...

Under this notion from some individuals, the fourth entry did connect with Windsor, but it’s her mother who carries the Windsor surname.

Catherine...

What Lynn is unaware of is that Xiya and Hilvy being ranked first is recognized by the other thirteen sisters, but there was contention over the third and fourth rankings.

Vivian herself recommended Catherine be ranked ahead of her, because she always remembered Lynn’s words: "Once a mentor, forever a spouse."

As Catherine had been Lynn’s former tutor, although she entered the Lin Family, she couldn’t be treated as an elder, but not as a junior either. Vivian was extremely humble and polite; how could she possibly rank above Catherine?

However, Catherine completely disagreed with Vivian’s notion, stating she had no recollection of ever having taught Lynn, therefore was not the enchanting mentor he spoke of.

Though nowadays she believes Lynn’s not one to tell such lies, she still wouldn’t acknowledge this past mentor-student relationship.

After she "awakened," she felt it was a blessing to marry Lynn, and precisely because of this happiness, she became more cautious about many things.

Teacher-student romances in Miracle World aren’t taboo, but Catherine sensed if she significantly regarded this mentor-student relationship, even took pleasure in it, it might be harmonized by some mysterious force.

Such mysterious strength, not to mention Lynn, even the Light God King, and the God of Creation from ancient legends couldn’t withstand it.

So Catherine backed down, publicly denying any connection with Lynn, perhaps only embracing it privately as a curiosity...

Overall, having negated this point, Catherine believed she had no reason to rank before Vivian, thinking she might even need to step further back; ranking fourth was quite inappropriate.

Yet the sisters eligible to compete for this position voluntarily backed down, their reasoning sound, and thus she accepted silently.

After all, Helena said she offered freely, Natasha said she was giving incentive, while Catherine was Lynn’s active pursuit; if the other two surpassed her, Lynn would surely give them trouble.

Therefore, the fourth position was settled—

Catherine.

And the fifth rank also naturally settled—

Helena Stuart.

Natasha Smirnoff.

As they, one human and one dragon, followed Catherine, no one had any objections.

Because their position was quite fitting: not the highest but high enough; it’s still the top five.

Natasha set aside, Empress Helena, as the Emperor of the Celestial Destiny Empire among the Eight Great Empires, even as she marries a True God, shouldn’t rank too far back. Besides, looking at her lineage, her ancestors were True Gods and Ancient Gods, irrespective of the Celestial Destiny Empire’s current state, her lineage once flourished, thus deserving this rank.

Also mentioning Natasha, her status wasn’t particularly remarkable in the Giant Dragon Empire, but years ago she signed a Knight Contract with Empress Helena, then an Empire Princess. Their lives are bound by this pact, mutually glorious or damaged; they’re practically inseparable.

Although they aren’t sisters by blood, lacking even the same race, they’re indeed more bonded than real sisters, surpassing any blood-related sister duo in depth and closeness.

Forever after the entry of the human-dragon knight partners, it was time for the Divine Consort everyone eagerly expected.

Cleia Windsor.

Finally, it’s a Windsor, and moreover, a direct royal lineage; being ranked seventh may not be high, but it isn’t low either—a solid middle rank, with room for progression.

Cleia, by habit, even in the significant moment of the sealing ceremony, maintained a cold demeanor that repelled strangers. If unfamiliar with her, one might assume she’s reluctant to accept this Divine Consort title.

Yet those who know her could see that despite her cold face, Cleia showed no displeasure, purely frozen too long; she hadn’t fully thawed yet. With Lynn’s warm care, it shouldn’t take long to melt her.
