Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!-Chapter 516 - 196: Kael Blessed by Divine Descent, Elanna’s Sword Dance, The Beginning of Ascension! (10K)_2

When he opened his eyes again, his gaze fell upon Elanna, who was curiously examining him.

Kael felt a slight weariness now, and his voice became much softer as he whispered, "Elanna, don't resist the power of the Guardian Seed."

Elanna nodded her head.

The next moment, above the palm of Kael's hand, a mysterious seed that twinkled with beautiful radiance quietly bloomed. Kael gently nudged the seed towards Elanna's forehead, and as it collided with her brow, an invisible ripple spread out.

Old White was standing in a corner, striving not to disturb the brief reunion between Kael and Elanna, his betrothed. He gulped down a cup of red tea that had gone somewhat cold and was overly strong.

Just as he was enjoying this leisurely moment, the invisible ripple passed through his body. Old White, who was about to pour himself another cup of tea, paused for a moment and furrowed his brow:

"What's this strange power? Why does it feel familiar, as if I've encountered a similar force somewhere before?"

Old White carefully recalled his past experiences, and soon his memories fixed on a bitter chapter of his history.

It was a period spent with a vigorous and spirited woman. From the moment she became known to him, to the point of understanding, to taming a pack of wild horses—in the literal sense—, he had a rather pleasant time on the great plains with that centaur, the Divine Favored.

Indeed, every time he galloped on horseback, Old White could always feel a similar ripple emanating from the body of the centaur, the Divine Favored.

She had told him that such ripples were typically unique to the Divine Favored, so the next time he encountered a being that continuously emitted such power around them, he should be cautious and wary.

Every Divine Favored possessed power beyond the imagination of ordinary people; the question was whether they chose to use it and knew how to wield it.

Now, he seemed to feel a similar ripple coming from those two children, but for some reason, this ripple differed from the ones he had felt before.

However, since he had only ever communicated extensively with that particular centaur, Divine Favored, and had seen but never truly communicated or interacted with the other Divine Favored, this touched upon Old White's blind spot in knowledge.

But Old White did not make a fuss about it.

After all, by now everyone in the Royal Capital knew that Kael possessed the Divine Favored Power from four deities; perhaps this was a characteristic of someone blessed with multiple Divine Favored Powers?

[Location: Duchy of Engilance·Royal Capital·Dawn Lord Church]

The Cardinal in the midst of prayer suddenly opened his eyes. Although previously continuously reciting the tenets of the Church, his eyes now held a hint of confusion.

Why did it feel like a new power of my Lord had appeared in the Royal Capital?

The Cardinal felt puzzled.

Within the Duchy of Engilance, wasn't Baron Helois the only active Divine Favored of the Dawn Lord?

Why did it feel as if there was now another one?

No, this power was not as pure as that of my Lord's Divine Favored; he had just thought of the extended system that unfolded from the Divine Favored's power.

After a moment, the Cardinal's thoughts circled the Royal Capital quietly.

Yet before he could properly examine where this power, similar to Losanda's Divine Favored, originated, he felt as if his soul had frozen.

A hoarse voice reached his mind: "All is normal, it's merely one of my descendants, Baron Helois, attempting a small experiment. Go back!"

Feeling as though a hamster facing an austere lion under that invisible gaze, too feeble to even raise his head, the Cardinal quickly replied through Telepathy:

"Yes, Lion Heart."

"Hmm, carry on with your duties."

As the gaze of Lion Heart patiently withdrew from the Dawn Lord Church, the Cardinal did not dwell on his recent subordinate-like response.

After all, for him at this moment, such an act towards Lion Heart was not demeaning in the least.

He was just somewhat annoyed at his own rash behavior.

Damn it! After so many years, why was he still so impatient when dealing with matters regarding my Lord?

It was known that hastily addressing matters related to my Lord's followers often did not receive a "quick to handle all matters involving followers" commendation from the higher-ups, and it could even backfire.

For instance, if Lion Heart's mood had not seemed much better than usual today, his current actions might have been enough for Lion Heart to thoroughly reprimand him.

After wiping the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, the Cardinal fell silent for a moment. He remained intensely curious about the power that resembled Divine Favored that he had just felt.

But, intimidated by Lion Heart's formidable power, he dared not use that same convenient method of exploration again.

He realized he might need to formally visit Baron Helois to understand what exactly was going on.

After hesitating briefly, he picked up his Communication Crystal and started dialing. Before long, a gentle voice emerged from the crystal:
