“Huh? What?”
Time seemed to stop in a matter of seconds, Krystal and her two concubines were immediately stunned, even making a sound they could not. Krystal seemed to fall into a dreamland, all this time he thought of the reason behind his mistreatment of the Emperor, until today all forms of questions are answered. Krystal – the owner of the body is the son of the previous Emperor and Empress.
“I heard it directly from the mouth of the Emperor and the Empress that you were considered a threat because you are a direct descendant of the previous Emperor who was hailed to give peace to Albetine. All the good things that Albertine has obtained to this day are the fruit of the hard work of the previous Emperor and Empress. The current emperor is simply enjoying the fruits of that hard work,” Shuria explained, in her memory still imprinted how she could know that.
“How exactly did the previous Emperor and Empress die?” tanya Ash feels that Shuria still holds many secrets.
As Shuria's hand shook violently, she wanted to open her mouth but was afraid that the Queen's man would kill her and her child. Shuria only wanted to create a peaceful life for her only son whom she had struggled to keep for these seven years. Then Krystal approached clutching Shuria's fingers, a feeling of calm flowing through the touch.
“Just tell me everything you know, I'll protect you when someone comes to kill you. Don't worry about anything, your son won't be in danger, I can guarantee that,” Krystal said in a soft and soothing voice.
Shuria took a slow breath, Krystal's words left her in the safe zone, her son looked very calm seeing that there was Krystal there.
“I don't know if you believe it or not, but a memory flashed through my head, which is the memory of ten years ago when the current Emperor made a massive uprising. You were seven years old then, both of your parents were massacred, then your famous Mother by her holy power was killed and forcibly taken her power to be given to Princess Emilia.”
“However, it turns out that the holy power has half flowed in your body, I still remember how the sound of your pain screams as that power is absorbed from your body. A priest named Pixies forbids to kill you, because it is said that you are still useful to them later. I witnessed all those scenes behind the palace walls, but why could I forget about them? Even in this empire no one remembers the rebellion as if the memory of the whole person was manipulated and erased, including your memory, Your Highness.”
Krystal's jaw stiffened with emotion, all forms of suffering experienced by the owner of the body turned out to be the work of Fred, Isabelle, and some of the nobles involved in it. Krystal could barely control her anger, at that time all she had in mind was death how she would present to those who had hurt the owner of the body. The end of this vengeance was increasingly apparent, the fate of the uncivilized man's death was in his hands.
“Baj-humans* that I will kill them all, I will not stay silent and I will make them die in terrible conditions,” said Krystal, then Shuria's son touched the back of Krystal's hand.
“Don't be angry, Brother, don't make that anger swallow Brother's self into a loss.”
Krystal realized by his words, for a moment Krystal put aside her anger, now all she needs to do is solve the problem of poor health of the people.
“Yes, I used to be the Emperor's favorite concubine, which is why the Empress was jealous and threatened to kill my daughter who was still in the womb. I already knew the ugliness of them all, so I chose to disappear, but sometimes the Empress sent people to monitor me and my son, she was afraid that I would return again to the Emperor's side,” clear Shuria.
Krystal understood, Isabelle was indeed such a person, no wonder many of the Emperor's concubines had disappeared because of the threat from her.
“How about you come back with me to the palace? It would be safer for you and your son to stay with me in the palace. Do not be afraid of the Empress, your son has the same rights as the Queen's son. Primson Palace where I live, there are still many empty rooms, you better stay there because Your Son needs comfort and enough nutrition to grow,” advice Krystal.
Adrian – Son of Shuria sumringah when Krystal offers to Shuria to stay in the palace.
“Mother, are we going to stay in the palace with this beautiful Sister? If we stay in the palace, we don't need to starve anymore, right? Mom and I don't have to eat stale food anymore, I heard in the palace everyone was wearing nice clothes. Will I also be wearing nice clothes like everyone else?” girang Adrian's.
Shuria seemed confused by Krystal's offer, seeing her son jump around happily making her powerless to refuse Krystal's offer.
“But, I don't want to trouble you, Your Majesty, you shouldn't have come this far for me and Adrian. I'm grateful you've saved me—”
“It's okay, you used to be good to me too. Still vividly remembered in my memory, you often gave me decent food and clothing. Sometimes you occasionally come to accompany me who is lonely, I never forget your kindness to me. Think of this as my return to you,” Krystal interrupted Shuria's words.
Shuria's tears were so bad, she had difficulty surviving and raising Adrian alone. Krystal's arrival today does wonders for her trying to fight death, her son who was always crying beside her frail body might not be around anymore. For Shuria, the happiness of her son is the main thing, the smile that Shuria casts on the son encourages the longing that she has longed for, that is, longing for the affection of her parents.
Then Krystal resolved all the problems of the people first before she returned to the palace with Shuria and Adrian. Most likely there will be a long feud because of the sudden appearance of Shuria with him. Moreover, Shuria brought a boy similar to the Emperor.
Krystal finished her job when the sun began to slip, fortunately all the problems she had solved perfectly. Shuria and Adrian had been waiting for Krystal since then, now they were all preparing to return to the empire. The small people, tormented by the unjust treatment of the leader, will no longer exist after this, because Krystal has made those areas his domain. In other words, the people displaced by the empire would prosper under his leadership.
