Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 105 Chapter 105: Empress’s Dinner Tonight (Part 3)

“What are you doing here?”

“And?”

“Get off my bed” Nova said with a stern voice.

“Hmph, Why should I ?~.”

Lena rolled her eyes, though her words were tough, her body was honest, immediately stopped provoking, and got off the Empress’s bed.

Then, the pink-haired succubus sized up Nova opposite her, making an admiration sound.

“Long time no see you in that uniform, huh? You knew Master Ashen was coming back, so you put on your most familiar look to meet him? So eager to put on the old stuff?”

“If you want to fight with me, just say it.”

Lena knew the temperamental Dragon Lady opposite was not joking.

One more teasing word from her mouth, and she might get punched.

“Okay, okay, we’re all sisters in that man’s harem, what’s wrong with some girlish talk? Hey! Put away your knife! I actually came here to tell you, Master Ashen is not in my Sin City!”

Seeing the Dragon Lady opposite really about to make a move, the pink-haired succubus became anxious, retreated a few steps cautiously, and finally got straight to the point.

Nova frowned. .

“Just for this sentence, you came all the way here?”

“Hmph, isn’t it? After all, I don’t want my city to receive a declaration of war too”

“So where is Master now?”

“Probably somewhere within your territory,” Lena said, twirling her pink hair with her finger.

“Why didn’t he come to find me directly?”

Hearing such a naive question from Nova, Lena couldn’t help but snicker, but seeing the Dragon Lady’s clenched fist again, she quickly became serious:

“If that guy can be sensed by you, he must have used your power, right? If so, you should also be able to sense how weak he is now, almost as if he’s lost all his strength.”

Nova nodded.

Or rather, it was precisely because of this that she was eager to find her master, worried that something bad had happened to him in the Holy Kingdom. But now it seems, it might not be as she imagined?

“So you still don’t understand, with that guy’s stubborn personality, of course, he wouldn’t directly come to you!”

“What do you mean?”

Seeing the Dragon Lady opposite still confused, Lena sighed, holding her forehead.

“Let me give you an example. Say you suddenly lost all your strength, would you still go to Master Ashen?”

“I…”

Nova fell silent. Indeed, if she lost all her strength overnight, she would probably choose to leave quietly, retrain, and only when she regained all her strength, she would be worthy to stand by her master’s side again.

But the problem is…

“Stop, I know what you’re going to say. Like, ah~ We are His Majesty’s loyal guards, we are loyal to Ashen, no matter what happens to him we won’t betray him, right?”

The pink-haired succubus was spot on, never disappointing ‘them’ when it came to being annoying.

“I’m just asking you, if you really find master, what are you going to do? Imprison him or turn him into a robot?”

“I would help master regain his strength.” Nova answered seriously.

“Heh, just like the way you helped your Demi human regain their strength?”

Facing Lena’s mockery, Nova, unusually, did not retort but fell silent.

Nova: ‘Is that way not right? ‘

‘Master had trained me that way, helping me regain my strength’

‘Then, couldn’t master himself accept this method? ‘

Nova didn’t believe it.

She believed her master would definitely endure it. What she could do in the past, her master should do it even more easily, ‘it’s impossible for him to fail’

The expression on the Dragon Lady’s face said it all.

Lena sighed deeply.

But no matter!

The more these people collapse, the worse they get, the more it highlights her, Lena’s excellence and sincerity! It paves the way for the ‘Succubus’ Grand Victory’!

Thinking of this, the pink-haired succubus curled her lips.

Until…

“So, why do you know so much? Did Master also use your ability?”

It was just a casual question from Nova, but the pink-haired succubus opposite reacted like a cat with its fur exploded.

“ME? HAH! I hope that guy NEVER uses my power, he better never use it for his entire life! And even if he did, Hmph* I wouldn’t go looking for him like you guys! I have more backbone than you all. he ditched me for what, five centuries? I won’t forgive him that easily!…. Unless… unless he comes to me on his own!”

Watching Lena’s sulking face, Nova was somewhat stunned and then, uncharacteristically, she spoke with a gentle tone.

“I didn’t expect that after five hundred years, the one among us who could stay the same would be you.”

“Ha!? Sister Nova, make yourself clear! Are you saying I’m stagnant? Pfft! I’ve grown, not in strength, but in wisdom! Intelligence! Forget it, there’s no use talking to ‘Vanguards’ like you with one-track minds!”

Seeing that the conversation was not going anywhere and having said what needed to be said, Lena prepared to leave.

But before that.

There were two more little things.

“Just one last question before I go. Hypothetically, just a hypothesis, what if master becomes your enemy? What would you do?”

“I would surrender.” Nova answered without hesitation.

“You!….?Huh…You can’t surrender! Have you considered why master would become your enemy, what deeper meaning this might have? Have you ever thought that this might be another trial from master Ashen for you, a… test?”

“I don’t understand.”

“Ah, forget it! It’s no use talking to you about it now. When the time comes, and you’re really in that situation, let’s see if you can still hold back, -if you can surrender so easily~-!”

Muttering to herself in a voice only she could hear, Lena waved at Nova.

“Alright, I have a lot of things to handle too. Oh yeah, almost forgot, I left a bowl of porridge on your desk. Just bought it on the way, it’s definitely not made by me, nor did I bring it specially for you. If you don’t like it, feel free to throw it away, I won’t be angry.”

After dropping this line, Lena’s figure disappeared in a puff of pink smoke within Nova’s bedroom.

When Nova approached the table according to the succubus’s words and opened the wrapped bowl of hot porridge, her purple dragon eyes suddenly narrowed, and her whole body seemed to shiver.

Quickly, all those delicious dishes from the previous dinner, which had failed to move Nova, who hadn’t even bothered to pick up her chopsticks, now saw her gently scoop a spoonful of porridge with a small wooden spoon.

This was…

The porridge she had woken up to after her “trial” the one master Ashen had fed her, cooked by master himself. It was designed to relieve physical fatigue and overexertion, very stomach-friendly and restorative. She remembered this bowl of porridge but had long forgotten its name and the ingredients in it.

‘So… Lena?’

‘She shouldn’t have been around Master at that time…’

‘How did she…’

She stopped thinking about it.

Nova ate the porridge spoon by spoon, each taste reviving her memories with her master, all those moments vividly coming back to life.

Five hundred years had passed.

Master had finally returned, still within the territory of her Dragon Nation.

So…

‘What is Master Ashen is doing now?’

‘It is late…’

‘He must be eating too…’

“I wish I can eat together with master again…”

Nova gazed at the moon outside the window, the Empress of the Dragon Nation was lost in her thoughts.
