THE SECOND OF LIFE EMPRESS
TSOLE 15'S
Miu's eyes look glassy looking at a design that she thinks is very beautiful. His feelings were so touched to see him.
“Ya Gods..... Why this painting is so beautiful.” Said Miu with a small sob.
“A masterpiece that can shake one empire!” Mumbled Miu once more.
Flo was even astonished to see the response of this gurgling man. According to him, there is nothing special about this design even seems very simple if in his era.
But if in the dimension where it is located, a design like this does not exist even Miu would bet to anyone if hanfu with this design if it is really marketed, not even a day will run out.
The hanfu looks plain, simple, sweet, and seductive at the same time. The visible chest area adds a sensual impression to anyone who wears it.
“How?” Flo asked who demanded an answer.
Didn't ask Flo also know who won this bet. In his time he had often seen various models of hanfu ranging from traditional to modern.
“What need to ask again? I confess if your design painting is very beautiful.” Puji Miu's.
“You'll get a job at my clothing store and not even 10 gold pieces, I'll give you one bag of gold pieces. Think of it as a welcome only from me to you.” Said Miu flowery.
The advantage he imagined would soon arrive with the presence of Flo with her beautiful hanfu design.
Hearing the gleaming man would give him a cantog of gold, instantly making Flo's eyes twinkle.
“Really? Hoho's... I'm so glad to hear it.” Flo uttered with stuck screeches.
He could clearly see the incredulous gazes of his loyal ladies-in-waiting. This is Flo's first step to success in the future.
“Alright Miss, we will discuss the working system in my store. It's nice to have a valuable worker like you.” Praise Miu and there was a long discussion about the employment contract and such.
***
In one of the food rooms precisely located on the 2nd floor, a group of young girls were enjoying the food. It even sounds occasionally awe-struck.
Thanks to the gold coins obtained from the lucky bet, Flo rented a dining room with 1 piece of gold just in case if it would be known by his people.
Although the possibility is only 0.001% 〒_〒
“Wan'er eat slowly! Very disrespectful like that in front of the Empress.” Reprimanded Wan with a small voice for fear that someone knows the real identity of the empress.
“...” Hearing the elder brother's words made Wen's ladyboy who had eaten quickly now stop eating him while bowing a nail.
After returning from Miu's clothing store with a bag of gold pieces, the four of them according to their original purpose wanted to tour the city market.
Of course Flo wants to please his loyal lady who is always there to accompany him. He was willing to sacrifice his life just for himself.
Aren't the ladies-in-waiting of Empress Ling in this dimension so sweet and kind? ≥_≤
“Haha... Never mind Wan, if outside the palace just call me Miss. And you eat! It is not good to fight in front of food.” Tell Flo who was embraced by the ladies with a shy face.
Were there nobles or imperial families treating them as well as Empress Ling did?
Their empress is very generous and beautiful. Whoever gets his heart must be very lucky.
But considering her position having married the Emperor made the two of them sigh. Men are rude, cruel, and do not have a heart that always torments the physical and inner empress.
‘Poor empress!!’
“Eat that many little girls. Your body needs more nutrients so it doesn't look dry like this.” Said Flo with a faint smile.
The food served on their table was not much different from the food Flo ate and saw in the imperial palace kitchen.
Fortunately there is still tenghulu which is the best and safest option in his small stomach.
Remembering the gold piece he had obtained earlier made Flo smile small. Maybe he should skimp on it going forward.
Although already in business with Miu the prominent shop owner of the Tang dynasty, but the name of the human must be selfish when it comes to money is not it? Moreover, there are 3 ladies who will always come with him later.
‘Ahh!! What about the modern business venture I brought to this dimension? Wouldn't it be profitable?’
‘Aishh, my expertise is only in the field of designing and also cooking. For now I can only rely on my design skills to earn coins.’ Inner Flo lethargic.
***
In the darkness of the night the cold atmosphere so pierced the skin. The sound of a small insect was so loud it sounded.
Flo who was none other than Empress Ling was seen sitting on her knees while looking at the star-studded night sky. Occasionally it was clear how heavy breathing from her beautiful lips.
“Huhffhh..”.
There hasn't been a month he's been in this world but there's been a lot going on. Moreover, her business with the emperor as her husband regarding the appearance of ghosts.
“Being strong huh?... Haish!! There's a lot of things in this dimension that I don't know.” Flo.
“If magic does exist, do the ladies-in-waiting empress Ling too.??”
“Empress!!!” Call the lady-in-waiting Wan surprises Flo of her solitude.
Wan was looking for Empress Ling for dinner. Although they had just returned from the city market, but having a snack at night was okay, right?
The food that the empress bought was quite a lot, there were dried meat and various sweet snacks just in case.
“What's the empress? Did anything disturb the empress' mind?” Ask Dayang Wan while sitting on my back because of the position of Flo who was sitting on the ground at the time.
“---”
Flo turned her head slightly and noticed the figure of Wan's ladyboy at a glance then looked back up at the star-studded night sky.
“Do you have magic?” Ask Flo without further ado.
Hearing the empress's question made Wan's lady-in-waiting stare fixedly from the side. A thin gust of wind blew the strands of hair of the two girls.
With a faint smile, Wan replied.
“We're just a regular human consort. Nothing in any history has a human had magic.” It's definitely Dayang Wan.
“---” Twitch is clearly visible on Flo's forehead.
“Alright I explain, witchcraft is just a myth. Servants often hear tales from grandmothers as children if long ago, all humans on earth had various abilities beyond human reason where there was only magic and magic. Everyone is competing to be the strongest not even reluctant to kill each other.” Clearly, Wan Dayang with a serious look on his face.
Flo could not close his curiosity to hear the words of Wan's ladyboy.
“Then, what happened?” Ask Flo.
Flashbacks
“GROGON SYRUS!!”
DUARR... DUARR...
A great battle or rather killing to become the strongest by expending all the magic they had.
The greedy nature of humans also made them dark with the advantages that the goddess had given them all.
“Cihh!! You think with your lowly contract beast it can tease me heh? Don't dream!! ORBEYL COLOMPUS!!” After reciting the spell, suddenly appeared an Orc creature similar to a giant size pig.
Battles occur almost throughout the dimensional world. No one can stop and just kill each other to become the strongest.
Countless hundreds or even thousands of lives were lost just because of human greed. And until the war ended, leaving only a few or even none left?
Flashback off
After Wan's lady-in-waiting told a glimpse of the fairy tale her grandmother often told her. Flo became very enthusiastic.
“Then, what happened after?”
“Entahlah Empress, but I still remember well before the late grandmother died she had said if there was a prophecy that would change the world order.” It's definitely Dayang Wan.
Change the world order? Speech that seems ambiguous.
“What does it mean?”
“Hamba also does not understand. But I am sure it is something very big impact.”
“Oh yes, why do you ask that?” Asked Dayang Wan while squinting.
If it was true that Wan's lady-in-waiting said that magic was just a myth, then what happened some time ago when she was able to teleport? What's the name if it's not magic?
“Haha.. Nothing, just curious. Never mind, better now we just sleep.” Bring Flo.
“E-eh, I almost forgot. I was looking for the empress to eat a snack that had been purchased earlier.”
Hearing the word snack makes Flo feel hungry, proved his stomach that suddenly voiced a familiar sound.
It seems like the appetite in the world before he changed dimensions with now is not much different. Grateful for his body which is not easily fat.
“Good.. Alright.. It seems like my stomach is also voicing protests. Eating at night is no problem, right? Ayoo...” Flo exclaimed and slowly stood inside the residence followed by Wan's lady-in-waiting from behind.
Without them knowing, from the back of the big tree there was a steal hear the discussion of the young woman. A man with silver hair matched the color of his eyeballs.
“Heh..”.
...SEE YOU NEXT...
