Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!-Chapter 1198 - 317: Crown Puppet Master

She sighed, and the massive electromagnetic gun in her hand collapsed inward, quickly transforming into a fluctuating imitation, which she hung at her waist: "Titan, lift the Tyrilla field, let the scythe weasels around fly a bit higher, don't let them see."

In the next moment, pieces of hexagonal semi-transparent barriers appeared, interlocking around the Titan Floating City.

That was the Protection Magic [Absolute Domain Force Field Barrier] by which Kael became famous back then, but now within the Federation, the Absolute Domain Force Field Barrier seems to have been renamed something else.

After the command was issued, these semi-transparent barriers slowly faded as if they had lost their power.

Lightning flashed across the sky, and a Big Scythe Weasel descended from the heavens, stopping instantly before hitting the city wall. It shook its body, flicking away the water droplets that had condensed on its fur, then shouted at the autonomous doll.

"Let's go, Big Scythe Weasel, let's meet these uninvited guests."

"Koo~"

The monster responded with a sound, following closely behind the autonomous doll down from the city wall.

...

[Location: Floating City Entrance]

The War Flying Dragon flapped its wings vigorously, landing on a massive reef. The Grantham father and son left the cockpit of the Floating Fortress, stepping onto the back of the War Flying Dragon, flying towards the Floating City hovering above the sea surface, and soon reached the massive drawbridge outside the city gates.

As the heavy city gate opened, an autonomous doll leisurely walked out.

Its sharp gaze seemed to exude an edge that made Rayleigh look at her enviously.

He wished he had such a charisma. With it, perhaps his father would no longer treat him as a child who hadn't grown up!

"Anfei Grantham, this disappointing guy is my legitimate son, Rayleigh Grantham."

Anfei extended his hand to the autonomous doll, who glanced down and reached out her hand too.

Suddenly, the War Flying Dragon beside them let out an anxious growl, stretching its head to try and push away Anfei's hand.

However, a streak of lightning suddenly burst from the fur of the nearby Big Scythe Weasel, the veins bulging on its short arms, blocking the Gem Dragon's collision.

The autonomous doll's voice came softly: "Relax, if you plan to act, whether to block or not is irrelevant now."

Anfei laughed heartily and said: "War Flying Dragon, step back, don't worry, Titan is one of us, this lady won't hurt me."

The autonomous doll glanced at him, and despite the interruption from his summoned beast, his hand steadily extended towards him, his smile unfaltering.

An old fox, evidently with excellent psychological resilience.

"An autonomous doll, as the legend goes, Lady Helois is a Crown Puppet Master."

The autonomous doll raised her head, glanced at the self-talking middle-aged man, extended her hand to hold Anfei's hand for half a second, then added: "You can... call me Autonomous Doll 2A."

A pair of hands, neither rough nor war-hardened, that was her assessment of Anfei made.

If she wished, she could direct force through his hand to wring him into a blood-sprinkled "towel." How many years had passed, and the Federation Mages' awareness of protection had already sunk this low?

Anfei's smile broadened slightly: "Miss Autonomous Doll 2A? What a good name, truly a good name. I haven't been this happy in years."

There was no falsehood in his smile, at least the autonomous doll found nothing amiss in his expression, and the smile appeared very natural.

The autonomous doll remained silent, she actually understood that it was not due to herself that upon the arrival of the Titan Floating City, such individuals sought her out, nor that they harbored no defenses towards her.

She thought of the one slumbering in a grand crystal, a perpetual weariness etched on their face, her mood suddenly grew somewhat agitated.

"Speak your piece." The autonomous doll raised her brow, glanced at the two, "You have ten minutes."

Rayleigh opened his mouth to say something, but Anfei interrupted him directly, slowly said: "We have already reported the emergence of the Titan Floating City back to the Royal Court.

Lancaster Territory was previously under the management of another lord in proxy, but it doesn't matter, that lord is the wife-to-be of the one above, capable of reclaiming Lancaster's ownership at any time... including the ownership of the Duchy of Inglans, the Lion Heart has been waited many years.

Over the years the Titan left, the Weave experienced significant changes. I have already sent the method to reconnect the Weave to the "Titan."

With the current coverage of the Weave, at the latest, in two days, "Titan" will be able to update the Federation's current internal data to the latest version.

Oh, although the governor didn't instruct me to bring up this topic, I still feel compelled to say it —

Anfei stood upright, and his gaze turned sharp, looking directly into the eyes of the autonomous doll:

"Miss Autonomous Doll, the 'Yibel Federation' is now strong enough not to let someone who has made outstanding contributions to the Federation die in such solitude."

The autonomous doll's ear twitched, a mix of emotions stirring in her heart, she finally said only one sentence: "He doesn't care."

Anfei was taken aback, his expression carrying a hint of sadness: "Is that so... as expected of Lady Helois."

"...you have five more minutes."

"About the circumstances over these past ten years, let Titan's data center gather and inform you later. The primary purpose of coming here has been mostly achieved, oh and here is a meeting gift, please accept it, no need to decline."

He extended his hand, a wooden box the size of a dictionary fell into his hand, handed it towards the autonomous doll.

The autonomous doll seemed a bit tired, lazily accepting the wooden box, nodding slightly with difficulty, then turned towards the inside of the Floating City.

Anfei silently watched the autonomous doll enter the city, the heavy gate lowered, obstructing his vision, a drop of sweat slipped down his forehead, his lips twitched slightly, and he murmured:

"Monster!"

He was not like his own simple-minded son. As an experienced mage of conjuration, the "resonance" between him and the summoned monster had become an instinct, naturally sensing the intense threat emanating from the autonomous doll perceived by the War Flying Dragon.

He instinctively felt that what the autonomous doll had just said, "blocking or not had no bearing," was meant literally —

When you appear in my sight, you lose the ability to intimidate.

"As expected of the creation of that lord!"

The father and son returned to the Floating Fortress in silence.

A while later, Anfei intentionally broke the silence, glancing at his dim-witted son with a sigh: "Did you see that? The Lady Helois that you underestimated, her creation is now conversing with your old man face-to-face."

Rayleigh defiantly raised his head, correcting his father's statement:

"Father, I haven't underestimated Lady Helois, I just think maybe you've made him too special.

The lady just now was very strong, I could tell, much stronger than me, but why do you attribute her strength to Lady Helois?

Father, I always believe that she first had this talent and matched efforts, thus earned her strength, not that her strength is a given because she's the creation of Lady Helois.

Modern puppets have already reached a certain self-evolutionary capability, just as you're irrational in matters concerning Lady Helois.

Just as with your overrated regard towards him, in these ten plus years, countless mages have sacrificed for the Federation, most notably, anonymity, yet why is he so special?" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Hearing his son's words, Anfei didn't rebut, only rubbed his hair, asking while smiling: "Well, my son, in your eyes, what kind of person is Lady Helois?"

Rayleigh was momentarily taken aback, thought for a few seconds before answering: "The mage from the 'Yibel Federation' who first achieved the God-slaying milestone?"

"That's the alliance's perspective, not yours."

Rayleigh immediately continued: "A powerful 'legendary' mage? But it seems because he's a Magic Monarch, his specific strength is considerably superior to an ordinary legendary mage."
