Afterward, these few people chatted for a while longer under the shade of the trees.
Until a certain moment, Yuuko raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to look into the distance.
Morax was a step slower, but he immediately sensed the aura approaching from afar.
In the distance, a petite figure was slowly approaching in this direction.
Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a little girl wearing white shorts and a short-sleeved top.
Strangely, even from a great distance, one could still see the bright green pupils on the little girl's face, giving an indescribably peculiar feeling.
Clearly, she was by no means an ordinary little girl.
Just one glance was enough to know that she was one of the Archons of the Seven Nations.
The Archon of the Sumeru Nation, Lesser Lord Kusanali.
Afterward, this young little girl arrived before the group.
After bowing slightly to the other Archons of the Seven Nations, she knelt on one knee before Yuuko and respectfully said:
"Forgive me, Lord Phanes, I seem to be late."
Yuuko was also slightly surprised by Lesser Lord Kusanali's behavior:
"You've already identified me as the Primordial Deity without asking anything?"
He had originally thought that the Dendro God of Sumeru would at least discuss it with him before making a decision.
Lesser Lord Kusanali looked up, a bright smile appearing on her small, round face:
"Since these Archons are sitting by your side, much can already be known. If you are truly that esteemed lord, I, and the Sumeru Nation, will naturally pledge allegiance."
It was hard to imagine that this little girl, who appeared to be in her early teens, gave off such a seasoned impression.
However, one truly couldn't judge the age of the Seven Archons by their appearance.
Don't let Lesser Lord Kusanali's childlike appearance fool you; she's already several hundred years old.
Hmm, she's already an adult, so she can... At this moment, Lesser Lord Kusanali asked again:
"May I ask, Lord Phanes, when do you plan to reclaim the throne?"
Facing this question, Yuuko thought for a moment and then said:
"Tomorrow. If we drag it out too long, we'll just be giving Celestia time to prepare."
"A wise decision, Lord Phanes," Lesser Lord Kusanali smiled faintly.
Then she pulled out a green chess piece from her flat chest and respectfully handed it to Yuuko.
"Lord Phanes, I know you will need this item to reclaim control of the throne."
Yuuko pondered for a long time, and finally accepted it.
After all, if one wanted to go to Celestia, the seven Gnoses were indispensable.
Afterward, Yuuko looked at Lesser Lord Kusanali again and asked:
"I have a feeling you're quite eager for me to go to Celestia."
Lesser Lord Kusanali was slightly startled, then showed an awkward smile and laughed heartily:
"Helping Lord Phanes reclaim the throne is precisely the duty of us Archons. Isn't that natural?"
"You're hiding something, aren't you?" Yuuko said again.
If Lesser Lord Kusanali had come to fight him for three hundred rounds before surrendering and handing over her Gnosis, Yuuko might not have been suspicious.
But this young girl came over and immediately handed over her Gnosis.
That was a bit too decisive.
At this moment, a bitter smile appeared on Lesser Lord Kusanali's youthful face:
"Forgive me, Lord Phanes, I have indeed concealed some things, but please rest assured, I am absolutely on your side."
"So what exactly are you hiding?" Yuuko was equally impolite, staring coldly at Lesser Lord Kusanali.
Lesser Lord Kusanali was silent for a long while before sighing softly.
She briefly glanced at Morax, then withdrew her gaze and said apologetically:
"Forgive me, Lord Phanes, because of a contract, I cannot say..."
Upon hearing this, Yuuko frowned.
Lesser Lord Kusanali dared not reveal the hidden secret because she had formed a contract with Morax?
In other words, this was also related to Morax?
Yuuko turned to look at Morax beside him.
He found that Morax had already turned his head to look at the scenery... Good for you, Geo Archon, always shirking your duties and pretending to be confused, number one at slacking off... "Um, Morax, I heard that the Archon of Sumeru cannot speak about certain matters due to a contract with someone. Do you have any insight into this?"
