18 Little Demon Empress (1/2)
After the wedding the five of us started to celebrate, using one of Golden jars that contain the God's Wine we partied the entire night. The children were tired after a few hours so I summoned again Charles Patricius and we put them to sleep.
Something very funny was that when Yun Gu took a sip of the God's Wine he make a fuss about that this wine was the most perfect ever.
”Where do you obtain this wine? There is more? Can you give more? Pleaseee!” (Yun Gu)
”Sorry old man, but this wine is very scarce I can only use it in special occasions, this one being one of them.” When Lucius said that, Yun Gu was visible sad but he understand that this kind of wind is extremely rare and you can only drank it one in your life, well Lucius has like one thousand jars of these wine in the Gate of Babylon but Yun Gu doesn't need to know this.
After the party Yun Gu decided to leave the new husband and wife alone and went to his chambers to rest.
Lucius was looking at Mordred face that has a little blush in her checks, her emerald eyes were a little drunk by the alcohol. She was looking at the night sky without blinking. A Smile was forming in her face. After a while, she stopped gazing at the sky and look at Lucius that was looking at her, although Lucius has the appearance of Charlemagne, there are several differences between the two. First is that his hair is more dark and the strand of white is bigger. His eyes are more blue and something very peculiar is that he has a beard and moustache well-trimmed. His hair is also always groomed with care, his nose is more pronounced but without making him ugly or something like that. And something that Mordred loves is that he smells like a forest when is raining season. That smell always calms her and makes her feel comfortable, something very rare but she decided to accept everything of him.
The two of them were together in the little island embracing each other, after a long time the two of them stand again and make way to Charles Patricius, Lucius lifted Mordred in a princess carry and with steady steps they make way to their chambers because a long night is awaiting for them.
The next morning Lucius opened his eyes as the light from papa Sun makes his appearance. Looking his surroundings he discovers that a delicate hand with ring was in his chest. Following the hand he looks at the beauty that was placidly sleeping. With extreme care Lucius begin to caress the face of his wife, his fingers moved between her sleeping eyes and her mouth. Touching those delicious lips he decides to give a kiss in her forehead; Mordred noticing the kiss, starts to awakening with a little of discomfort she snuck closer to Lucius and snuggles in his chest. Looking at that display of affection, Lucius couldn't help to feel extremely happy.
Lucius sit in the bed after removing his body from the embrace of his wife, he decides to put his clothes after inspecting the closet, taking a white shirt and black pants he starts to dress; after putting his pants a low yawn from the bed was heard and with a quick look she watch as his wife open her eyes and look at her surroundings, after a few more moments she awake completely, looking at the back of her husband she notices the tattoo that Lucius have in his back. Removing a few strands of hair that was in her eyes she approach Lucius and embrace him from behind with her armas. Putting her lips in his shoulder she decides to be a little spoiled; rapidly she bite into his shoulder and starts to bite his ear; Lucius was felling funny by the petting that his wife was doing. Peeking at her she, he put his lips into her neck and starts kissing her.
After a very long time of caress and petting the two put their clothes on and make way to the armory. When they enter the robotic voice of SERAPH give its greetings.
”Good morning Master, Madam” (SERAPH)
”Good morning to you too SERAPH, please start ascending and positioning at the edge of the island, I need to do something”
”Understood Master” SERAPH begin to lift Charles Patricius and make its way to the edge of the island, after a few minutes Charles Patricius is hovering in the air totally quiet. Making his way Lucius is standing in front of the gates when he starts chanting.
”The time of crowning has come
He is the one that begins all
Ars Paulina!” (Lucius)
With Lucius as the focal point all reality was sucked to a new world, in this new world exists 2 Palaces, the first is the Solomon's Palace and the Second is The Golden City –place that contain all the treasures that Gilgamesh collect through his life. Lucius was concentrating all that power to obtain the island that without a better name decided to call the island ”Avalon”. An enormous suction force sucks in the entire island and the sea that was surrounding the island.
Canceling Ars Paulina the only remnant of the island was the gigantic hole that rapidly was being filled by the ocean.
After that Lucius returned to the armory with Mordred and SERAPH and instructed SERAPH to continue the travel to the Illusory Demon Realm.
Mordred and Lucius were standing together in front of the gates of the fortress, suddenly he took two chairs, a table a few drinks and a fishing rod. Taking each one a chair, the two sit down and for the rest of the travel were enjoying the landscape.
Ten days later Charles Patricius was entering the Illusory Demon Realm without a problem. The five of us were talking about our next plans and the situation in this continent. Yun Che was nervous because he don't know if his real family was in this place, although he trusted the decision that Yun Gu make with Lucius, he can help being apprehensive.
Another three days passed without eventualities, the demon realm was huge so, following the different settlements and medium cities that were scattered we reached a really big city. The city has the color of white gray, in the center of the city stand a Palace and a Hall, in the north, south, west and east ten compounds of different sizes surround the center of the city. I think that this place is called Demon Imperial City and the royal family live in the palace. When we were admiring the city, a woman dressed in imperial clothes was standing in front of us together with other ”experts”, she is very beautiful her eyes and hair were black like the night, her white skin make her appear without blemish, her petite figure only incremented her charm; when I was admiring the new comer the woman in the group decided to speak in a voice devoid of warm.
”Who are you? Why are you invading our city? What are your intentions? If you don't answer I will take that as a provocation and take you down!” (Huang Caiyi)
Huan Caiyi POV
A few days before detecting something in the sky, I was revising the different affairs that the empire have, twelve years ago thanks to the schemes of Duke Ming and Duke Huai we suffered a lot of casualties; thanks to the treason of Duke Ming the sacred grounds in the sky profound continent launched an attack to our city this caused that millions of lives were lost, my husband was crippled and unfortunately died 2 years ago. Without male heirs I ascended the throne and I'm ruling this place with the help of the rest of the eleven guardian families.
Speaking of the guardian families, the Yun Family hasn't received news about the heir of the family the same as the old patriarch Yun Canghai. That damned Duke Ming! That scum killed my father and crippled my husband and now not only that; I'm a widow for heaven's sake fortunately the Emperor Seal is safe!
Yun Qinghong suffered some injuries in the war but nothing grave; thanks to the elders of the Yun Family and the Mu family he recovered almost all his strength but his wife is in a difficult position because there's no news about her father-in-law and her son so she is currently very ill.
I continue to check that everything is ok, when a sudden nock in the door jolts me, saying ”Enter” Yun Qinghong enter with a worry face.
”Your Majesty, we detected a floating fortress crossing the continent; it was first discovery in the northern ocean domain that is under the rule of Kong Jingcang.” (Qinghong)
”How is that possible?! We put a barrier in the entire continent to detect intruders after the war with the Sacred Grounds. How is that we didn't detected it until Jingcang sighting that fortress?” My mind was a mess, after the war with the Sacred Grounds we put a barrier that can detect if someone intrude the continent without permission, and how is that something as large as a floating fortress wasn't detected.
”What are the moves of the fortress” (Caiyi)
”There are no movements at the moment; it seems that is only traveling at a high altitude. Jingcang could detected it because he was in one of the tallest mountains hunting, if not for this, we couldn't detected that fortress until arrived at the capital, as you know your Majesty, the capital has a barrier that could detect intruders no matter how small they are.” (Qinghong)
”Sound the alarm! Gather every one of the guardian family, put an array blocking space in case the intruders escape. Evacuate the civilians, put the army in maximum alert; Do not attack until we can verify their intentions. I don't want another war, if they are hostile kill at sight, no matter the cost” I gave orders to Qinghong and he immediately started to make preparations to the upcoming treat.
For the next two days the army, the experts in the eleven families and the royal army together with the royal guards and elders were making preparations for the worst. I'm currently trying to stabilize my cultivation but the Golden Crow legacy is terrible my yin energy is conflicting with the yang energy of the Golden Crow, right now I only have the strength of half-step to divine origin but the pain that I suffer is making my will bend little by little. I hope that the intruders are only passing by we don't want another war we lose so much in the last, my people needs to rest and recover of the tragic events of the past.
The third day the fortress was sighting a few kilometers north of the city, when I saw the fortress my blood turned cold. That thing is heavily fortified, I saw some kind of profound canons and the ramparts that cover the fortress are made from metal. There is a huge mansion in the center of the fortress I never saw that type of design that maybe in another time and moment I will admire but know that thing is making me tremble.
”Your Majesty we are ready! All the families, army, royal guards and royal army are here awaiting your orders” (Mu Feiyan)
