Chapter 166 - Seeing the Empress Again

it took one hour or so before both amelia and i landed in the human kingdom. obviously, i got down from the ground before anyone could see me since i didn't want rumors of me flying around spreading around the world, especially since flying was such a rare skill that only a few individuals could even grasp.

however, once we reached the gates to the city, things got a bit more complicated since it seemed the guards had received some orders from the emperor. as soon as they saw me, they immediately dashed in my direction, asking me to follow them; otherwise, they would have no choice but to capture me by force.

i knew there was no chance for them to even capture me. nevertheless, i decided to follow since i needed to have a discussion with the emperor, especially considering the message i had left alexandra before leaving.

there was a good chance that she had changed some words when she had said to the emperor. after all, i understood that much from our small phone calls with one another.

"i'm curious. do any of you know why the emperor asked to see me?"

"we're simply following orders. that's all."

i nodded as i looked over to amelia, who had kicked a few guards to stay with me. they had tried their best to only bring me to the emperor. however, they hadn't managed to, as they needed to face amelia's wrath, which was accentuated when it came to me.

"gotcha, so you're all pretty much useless, huh?" i muttered as i saw the expressions on each of their faces change.

"tsk, shut up. you left the human kingdom without telling anyone because you wanted to. if there's anyone who's useless, it's you. you weren't a high-ranking officer, and you're nothing more than a commoner. don't you dare talk to us as if you're superior?"

first off, everything that he had just said was clearly wrong without a doubt in my mind.

"argh... why did you hit me?"

"tsk, stop ogling her like some pervert! i'm right here, you know!" amelia shouted, annoyed by the fact that i stared at the empress.

nevertheless, the empress quickly let the guards go and guided us personally.

"it's nice to see you again. the emperor talked about you a lot while you were gone for over three months." your next read awaits at empire

"nice to see you again," i replied politely.

"who's this beautiful woman next to you? an elf? but why is the color of her hair so white... as if it was made of snow."

my eyes widened. "ah, she's amelia. she's the queen of the ice elves; that's why the color of her hair and eyes was like that."

"t-the queen of ice elves?!" the empress panicked right away, not knowing what to do. "i-i'm sorry, i didn't know that someone as important as you was coming to our manor. if so, i would have made the necessary preparations."

"ah... no worries, i'm only here to accompany caedrel. and i'm not really the queen of the ice elves anymore. i gave up on that title to become caedrel's lover and follow him everywhere in the world!"

the more the empress heard amelia talk, the more confused she was becoming. she had literally no idea what was happening.

"the queen of the ice elves and caedrel stuart are going out... together?! really?" she screamed. "hubby! come out, this is big news!"
