Chapter 101 - I Don't Understand (part 1)

If it were easy to get this person to rise to the rank of the empress, Ade would have already sent a message to his secretary to organize everything. Unfortunately, the moment they found out that he had bonded with an omega, it would open the gates of hell and several nobles would send their daughters and sons to run for the empress's office.

The nobles never accepted a hybrid as their empress, even if Mu Liang would receive an honorary position and shared with the late empress, he would not be the empress in full power.

Things would be different if Ade actually bonded with omega and could have children of her own, the man in his arms would be placed as an Honored Concubine and held a high office, but he would never be empress.

At the moment, Ade after bonding couldn't understand the grandfather and father who had more than one mate at the same time, he couldn't bear to think of having anyone other than his omega with him.

For the first time in his life, Ade was wondering if he really belonged in that role as emperor.

"First no one can know about him, I think that person will run away if he knows I want to make him the empress," Ade thought a little amused. If it were him in the white dragon's place, he too would flee.

They only met now, how could he make such a crazy proposal, they didn't even know each other properly.

"I won't think about it anymore, let's spend our time together" Ade muttered kissing Emery's sleeping face.

Outside, Ade hadn't realized that unleashing his territorialist pheromones had put the other zerg alphas in danger. The imperial guards who were near the office were now on the ground, they could only breathe without moving, terrified of the emperor's pressure.

Fortunately, in the futuristic ABO era robots were all over the place, some lucky ones managed to call the robot employees. The imperial guards were thus rescued, while the other imperial guards surrounded the perimeter, waiting for the moment for the emperor's pheromones to disperse.

Of course, Juma Berta was called to the scene, he left the office and rubbed his tired eyes, he was seeing too many documents on the computer leaving his eyes dry.

Juma Berta was shocked by the news that the emperor was scattering the pheromones violently and recklessly, as Alpha-Extreme, he couldn't approach the office at the time.

"Have any of you seen the emperor receiving someone in his office after I left?" Berta asked the other imperial guards who had escaped the knockout of the emperor's pheromones.

Unfortunately, they were also lost with the situation, they didn't see the emperor receiving anyone, and not even at the front gates was there any visitor's signature or recording of someone entering.

The imperial secretary checked the garden recordings and didn't see anyone breaking into the office, but these territorialist pheromones weren't normal, they only happened when an alpha found an omega in estrus and he marked the omega as his own.

"How did you find an empress in that time span?!" Juma Berta thought, disconcerted by the situation. He was happy that his emperor/friend had finally found someone compatible with him or apparently that indicated, but he was worried about the consequences and the ripples it would cause in the Diablo Empire.

On the other hand, Mu Liang was sleeping in a recovery capsule, he hadn't realized how much his body had suffered from all the persecution of the Rebels and from using his mental powers.

Mu Liang very stubbornly wanted to see his new friend Nadira who was, fortunately, recovering well, after again being stubborn he accompanied Emery until he saw the other one well settled in the hospital for further tests.

Of course, he was doing this to escape the scolding that Gyasi was saving for him, only when he finally went to take his exams did the tiredness kick in and he ended up losing consciousness, which left Gyasi worried and scared, luckily it was just fatigue and he would recover with just two days in the recovery capsule.

Gyasi was at his side as he received several reports from the army about the arrest of some managers of the blue Rebel faction. The Rebels split into factions to better manage the members, the blue faction is the one in the commercial district of the capital and they had discovered this faction a few weeks ago.

The idea was to watch the blue faction closely and catch the highest members and perhaps reach the core of the Rebels, but with the terrorist attack on the inner palace gardens and the "kidnapping" of the late Empress and Prince Mu, they had to attack the blue faction in search of information and the possible location of the two missings.

Fortunately, the blue faction really was with Prince Mu and the late empress, they were rescued with relative success, now both were recovering from the hunt in the tunnels.

Rebels: (...)

Hey, we are innocent! We didn't even know the late empress and Prince Mu were in the tunnels, okay?!

Gyasi looked at the recovery capsule, he felt his heart constrict, once again he thought that for this reason, it was better to stay away from the imperial power, it would only put those he loved in danger.

"Lola, how is my mother's situation?" Gyasi called his system, which was also his ship's system. He had two systems, the consciousness of his spaceship and the system that was in his palace.

He used Lola the most on all occasions as he lived more traveling than in the palace.

"The late empress is recovering in the next room, you should go on her own" Lola advised suddenly. Of course, Gyasi wanted to go look, but he was also afraid to know the result.

"I prefer you tell me first," Gyasi said calmly, but only he knew how his heart was in chaos. He would not have imagined that his mother could reach this state, of course, he felt several mixed feelings between guilt for having recently quarreled with his mother and anxiety to know that even the late empress could be easily attacked by the rebels.

"Host needn't worry. She is fine, only her mental power has been drained and there are a few injuries to her body, but with a few days in the recovery capsule she will come back even healthier " Lola said consoling her Host.

Gyasi felt relieved for a moment, he looked through the transparent part of the capsule seeing Mu Liang's sleeping face, which soothed his heart further. Only for him to get excited again just thinking that if he had arrived too late his beloved omega might have disappeared forever.

"Oh, the former Emperor Ehione is in your mother's room" Lola said to Gyasi.

Gyasi remained impassive about the matter, just like Ade, he didn't understand how his father could choose multiple partners even though he was bonded. He himself could not think of anyone other than Mu Liang to be by his side.

Strangely, he was able to forgive his grandfather Kayin because times had changed and most of Kayin's partners had died due to the wars and schemes of that time, which is why he had married so many times.

Gyasi couldn't think about how Grandpa Kayin had survived after losing so much of his wives and children, just by imagining that Mu Liang could disappear forever, he felt that a lot of him was going to die too. Even if he lived it would be like being half dead which was also terrible.

In Nehand Achebe's room, the former Emperor Ehione was sitting in the chaperone's chair, he had asked the retired empress's loyal maid to leave for a while.

He sat up and looked into the unrecognizable face of the empress, with its strangely beautiful lavender hair and many years younger than the empress's original appearance.

"Nadira... You haven't used that name in years... I still remember when you dared to challenge me when we were younger... I had completely lost to who I thought was a peasant"

Ehione said as if talking to the unconscious Nehand, his tone was very soft and full of warmth, Nehand herself would be shocked by the tone of this ex-husband.

For Nehand those days of her free and unrestrained adolescence were her most beloved treasure, of course, the responsibilities weighed in shortly after her mother's passing and she and her siblings had to start running the house as her father was always away. because of the constant battles that the Diablo Empire faced at the time.

When she and Ehione met, they were both in disguise, of course, Ehione's disguise was so obvious to any nobleman who had entered the imperial palace, but Nehand's disguise made her a totally different person thanks to her family's special ability.

Nehand young and carefree, she was not yet of age and had never seen Ehione in person, just for photos and a few videos, but she never thought of getting involved with the imperial family, so she no paid attention to the appearance of the crown prince as it would have nothing to do with her, as her older brother omega would take over the family and she is the third child, she would probably marry some random nobleman or she would enroll in one of the research institutions across the empire so she could travel freely around.

Unfortunately, fate is a complicated thing and is always against the wishes of mortals.
