As Xue Ren wrote his letter, he went for a little talk with Zhi Shendra. The mission Eleonora involves those from Corrum Continent, thus, he also has to learn more about people from this continent. While Xue Ren was going to library, in another place…
“How could you lose all your aura?”
The voice that was reverberating throughout the room was filled with authority, firm and confident. As if the person speaking had the highest status and prestige. Crossing her legs once more, the eyes of Empress Lavane landed on her subordinate.
It was brothel’s boss which was victim of Xue Ren’s devour ability… She who has been kneeling ever since she came here began shivering as she could feel the gaze of her Empress.
Remembering how couldn’t she even move properly for half day after Xue Ren’s ruthless rampage, the boss let out several tears… What was more shocking was that she had lost her whole aura causing her status to fall to that of commoner.
If Xue Ren didn’t left 1% of her aura, then she wouldn’t be able to even move.
“It must be Xue Ren’s evil art!”
Empress Lavane turned her eyes to her red scales when she heard those words. Those scales were exactly the reason she became Emperor’s favorite and had quite higher status than other Empresses. Those red scales of her race were her pride and weapon!
“Did it feel good?”
Princess Lilianna who was beside her blushed deeply. But, she could easily hide this blush as even she was kneeling before her own mother…
“H-heavenly…”
The reason Lavane asked this question was, of course Emperor. If she could please him more… if she could use both her scales and this evil art in the way to only please him… Just like that, the interest in Xue Ren’s grew stronger in the Empress’ heart as she ordered her own daughter.
“Send Orcas after Xue Ren and Elena’s daughter.”
“Yes.”
Lilianna answered briefly and left the room. Orcas was her own brother which was quite good in hiding even for salamandra. Of course, she knew about Eleonora’s mission. If Warles knew then there was no way she wouldn’t…
“Come here.”
As Lilianna left, Lavane ordered the boss and burned her whole clothes causing her body to go all red. Then, extending her arm, she began playing with the boss body as she stimulated her with her own scales.
The difference was very visible. Those scales of Empress can be also called imperial red scales as the stimulation was totally on another level.
“Compare.”
As ordered, the boss began comparing and which every word, Lavane’s beautiful eyes narrowed even more. It looked as if difference was too big…
While Empress was playing with her subordinate, Xue Ren already ended the talk with librarian. Zhi Shendra told him about three empires on Corrum Continent, and about dark violet energy with was coming from their continent.
‘Because of this energy, the mission of Eleonora is going to be easier.’
The mission was simple. They have to thoroughly inspect second rate power and if there are any betrayers, catch them and bring them to capital. If necessary, then kill! The dark violet energy that Burie had in her storage stone came from those very betrayers.
Xue Ren was slightly surprised that Zhi Shendra had connections with Burie, even more, he knew that Rure is after her… so Xue Ren had quite mixed feelings… However…
‘If there are already betrayers… it means that they are making moves already, so is Divine Grace coming or what is the reason?’
While thinking, Xue Ren already arrived at the capital gates. Guards and other people who saw his clothes didn’t dare to distrub him as he looked as if lost in thought. The popular racist spectatle already reached everyone’s ears and the clothes of Eleonora’s butler became popular.
Here, Xue Ren was waiting for his princess, Eleonora.
Soon, Snow Princess came as she brought with herself cold air making everyone to get out from her way. Just simple look at her would made anyone to experience immense coldness. However, with black dress and now, black umbrella, Eleonora had gorgeous look.
She glanced at Xue Ren as she passed him which caused Xue Ren to shrug as he followed after her. Leaving the gates, Xue Ren couldn’t help but think…
‘Don’t tell me she wants to go on foot?’
Eleonora quickly answered to this question as she summoned snow crystal carriage. The one who was in front of this carriage was enormous, but cute snowman…
“…”
Won’t it be too cold for him inside? Also, is it fine for snowman to pull carriage? Won’t it melt here?
Xue Ren had a lot of questions like those, but Eleonora didn’t wait for him as she got inside. However, Xue Ren stood outside without moving so she gestured him to get into with her eyes alone.
Tsk!
Xue Ren entered the cold carriage as he already was preparing himself to make move on her. Last time, Eleonora relased such hot warmth that it even surprised him, thus, Xue Ren was already planning to evoke this warmth once more.
As he sat down on the cold spot, Xue Ren immediately began shivering! But no one could hear his stuttering as the snowman was quite loud with his steps!
“Are you perhaps sadist?”
“…”
“It’s cold…”
“It is.”
‘Damn, I can’t wait any longer!’
Xue Ren stood up! He approached Eleonora after thirty minutes of cold suffering and sat down next to her. Then, he put her on his knees. It was similar posture to that with Duan Qiu when he first arrived in the capital.
Eleonora didn’t reject his moves. What was more suprising was that she herself coiled her arms around his neck…
‘Don’t tell me she had done it purposely?’
Looks like Eleonora isn’t sadist, but shy woman. Xue Ren who thought like that smiled brightly as he buried her into his embrace. It was simple and gentle hug, nothing more as he enjoyed the warmth in this cold carriage.
Soon, both the carriage and snowman melted away!
“”…””
