My Celestial Ascension

“I’m speechless… You’ve used magical monster materials to craft the dining table and chairs. I’m truly impressed,” Yuan said, his smile growing wider.

Valeria grinned proudly. “The materials for this set come from monsters I hunted personally. Most of them I killed during my solitary training in some of the most dangerous forests.” She couldn’t help but recall memories from her training period, which had lasted nearly thirty years.

“Not just the dining set—all the decorative items in the mansion come from the monsters I’ve killed. To remember every moment of my training, I’ve turned monster materials into decorations and filled my mansion with them.” Valeria sat next to him, pulling him close before kissing him on the neck.

Soon, Mina and two other servants entered the dining room, each carrying food in both hands. Mina noticed the brief exchange between Yuan and Valeria, raising her eyebrows slightly.

‘Lady Valeria seems very intimate with this handsome young man. I wonder what their relationship is. Are they really lovers, as the other maids say?’ Mina thought, her gaze fixed on Yuan’s handsome face, curious about his identity.

“Girls, place the food on the table and leave immediately,” Mina ordered the maids professionally. Her strict tone had them promptly leaving the dining hall after setting the food.

Once they were gone, Mina personally served the food, still puzzled by her lady’s earlier instruction to prepare a meal for at least thirty people.

‘Are they really going to eat all of this? And where did Lady Valeria find so much rare and exotic meat? This is all very confusing!’ she thought as she continued to serve.

When it was time to serve Valeria’s meal, Mina leaned close and whispered, “My Lady, could you tell me about your relationship with these people? Especially that handsome young man. You seem quite close to him.”

Valeria smiled, amused by her personal maid’s curiosity about Yuan and his wives. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

“Since you’ve asked, I should introduce them to you properly. After all, you have a right to know who they are,” Valeria replied, smiling as she began introducing Yuan and his wives to Mina. She then introduced Mina to them.

“Mina has been my personal maid for over sixty years now, and she’s one of the people I trust the most. She’s like a younger sister to me,” Valeria explained to Yuan and his wives.

“Lady Valeria, how many times have I told you not to call me your sister?” Mina protested, her face turning red. “You’re a member of the Imperial Family. People would be outraged, and the nobles would despise me if they knew.” Despite her complaints, Mina felt a surge of happiness knowing Valeria still thought of her as a sister.

“Besides,” Mina continued, “you said this young man is your husband. You must be joking, right? There’s no way you would get close to a man.”

Valeria chuckled. “Why would I joke about that, Mina? Yuan is truly my husband, and we’re very serious about our relationship.”

“But… he already has multiple wives, Lady Valeria…” Mina responded, a puzzled look on her face.

Though polygamy was accepted in this world—even the Emperor had four concubines—she still found it strange that Valeria, of all people, would enter a relationship like this.

Valeria chuckled at the puzzled look on Mina’s face and said, “Well, it’s because he’s incredibly strong, despite his appearance—even stronger than I am. Strong people can have multiple partners, and each of my sisters is also strong.”

“In fact, some of my sisters are far stronger than I am. If I’m honest with myself, I can’t even hold a candle to them.” Valeria admitted before beginning to eat, her movements graceful and elegant.

“What?! Unbelievable…!” Mina gasped, covering her face in shock. She had never expected Yuan and his wives to be so powerful.

She looked at Yuan and his wives, eyes wide with disbelief. She still found it hard to accept that there were people even stronger than Lady Valeria sitting right before her eyes.

‘No wonder Lady Valeria fell for this handsome young man… Not only is he devilishly good-looking, but he’s also incredibly strong. A perfect match for Lady Valeria,’ Mina thought to herself.

A few minutes later, they finished dinner and decided to relax in the mansion’s luxurious living area.

Little Zoe came running down the hallway toward the living area, her playful giggles echoing with excitement.

‘That little girl… Is she his daughter?’ Mina wondered, suspicion flashing across her face.

“Young Master Yuan, is that little girl with you…perhaps your daughter?” Mina asked directly, her gaze sharp, as if she could spot any hint of deception.

“Hahaha! You’re mistaken. Little Zoe is Miss Zara’s daughter. We consider them family, which is why they’re traveling with us,” Yuan explained with a laugh, finding it amusing that Mina had mistaken Little Zoe for his daughter.

“What?! Really?” Mina was shocked, embarrassed at her own assumption.

‘So he considers us his family, huh? That’s good to know. I feel relieved knowing we’re not a burden to them,’ Miss Zara thought with a smile, as though a heavy weight had lifted from her shoulders.

Once they settled into the living area, they spent the next few hours chatting happily. Anna and the others flirted with Yuan, bringing up fond memories with him.

Later, Valeria said goodnight to Mina and led Yuan and his wives to their bedroom. Upon arrival, Miss Zara and Little Zoe went toward the room next to Valeria’s.

“Goodnight, Yuan. Sleep well. Though, I doubt you’ll get much rest with all your wives around!” Miss Zara chuckled before entering her room.

“Goodnight, Big Brother Yuan! Sweet dreams!” Little Zoe ran up and hugged him tightly before darting back to her room.

“You too, Little Zoe. Have sweet dreams,” Yuan called after her, chuckling at her excited expression as she disappeared into her room.

“She’s always been a playful, cheerful child… and very determined too,” Anna said with a soft chuckle.

“I can sense it… She has a strong will. In the future, she’ll become someone others can only look up to,” Valeria added, taking Yuan’s arm and guiding him into her luxurious bedroom.

“Well, it looks like you won’t be getting much sleep tonight with Valeria in this mood, fufu~” Grace murmured, her expression neutral, her tone plain but laced with amusement.

“Indeed. And besides, we can’t let him ignore us like he did in the bathroom, can we?” Anna said, nodding as she turned to Emma and the others. “What do you think? Should we let Valeria have all the fun, or should we join in as well?”

“I agree. We should join the fun too. After all, we’re his wives too,” Julie added with a wide grin, beginning to remove her clothes until she was completely undressed.

“You’re right. Let’s join them,” Lily chimed in, taking off her clothes as well.

Anna, Grace, Rose, Ava, Leah, Emma, Mireya, Sylvia, Fang Xiaoyan, and Xi Meili followed suit, undressing and climbing onto the bed. They decided to let Valeria have her special moment with Yuan first, as she was clearly excited, before joining in to share a passionate and romantic evening with him.

Valeria gently pushed Yuan onto the bed, climbed on top of him, and brought her face close to his. They looked into each other’s eyes for a few moments before their lips met in a tender kiss.

Once the kiss ended, Valeria grinned and said, “Now let me help you out of these clothes, my dear husband. Let’s have some fun, shall we?”

She removed his shirt and admired his bare chest for a moment before leaning forward to kiss him there. Each kiss sent an electrifying sensation through him, heightening his anticipation.

“Valeria… You’re making me very excited. I’m looking forward to whatever you have in store,” Yuan whispered, and Valeria only grew more eager, wrapping her arms around him tightly as she continued her kisses.

“Just enjoy the feeling, my husband. There’s more to come… Just be patient with me, okay?” she murmured before she began removing his pants.

“You seem quite eager… You’re already so ready,” Valeria teased, using her hand to make him feel even more exhilarated, an extraordinary sensation coursing through him.

Unable to contain himself any longer, Yuan pulled her closer, kissing her passionately as their bodies pressed together, the intensity between them growing.

Soon, the entire bedroom was filled with their soft murmurs and laughter as their passion unfolded.

Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Family gathered on a beautiful balcony. Every member of the family was present, each wondering why Emperor Philip had called them all together so urgently. The atmosphere was thick with tension and mystery, and only the Emperor and his eldest son, Crown Prince Daniel, seemed to understand why.

“Imperial Father, why have you summoned us here so suddenly? What’s going on?” Princess Elara Lionheart broke the silence, as puzzled as everyone else.

“That’s right, dear. You can’t keep us in the dark—please, tell us what’s going on. Did the Light Empire cause trouble again?” asked a beautiful woman with a powerful aura of pride and gentleness.

The woman was none other than Empress Selena Lionheart, the Empress of the Lionheart Empire and the mother of Daniel and Elara.

The Emperor remained silent for a moment before speaking in a voice filled with gravity.

“Elder Sister Valeria has returned…”

“…”

The family fell silent, the weight of his words hanging heavily in the air.

“I see… So she’s finally decided to come back, and yet… she didn’t come here to greet me,” Empress Selena murmured, her voice dazed, her surprise evident in her expression.
