Chapter 1154: Flame Empress & Lightning Magus - Part 1

Rosalie was not expecting the amiable welcome from the other Tang Shaoyangʼs wives. Based on the ranking, she was the last woman though Tang Shaoyang had introduced her to other women. More than half of Tang Shaoyangʼs women were here, having a meal with her while asking for an update about Tang Shaoyang.

Elinova who prepared the feast, Delia one of the youngest, Li Shuang who was responsible for the Tang Empireʼs administration, Ava the former Elven Queen who was currently expecting Tang Shaoyangʼs firstborn, Sylvia the princess of the Moonlight Rabbit, Arina the priest, and Jasmine the Queen of the Tang Empireʼs vassal. The remaining women were in the tower because of the war against the Divine Church.

Apparently, the feast was to welcome her to the family. The Flame Empress really did not expect this would come for her. She thought what would come for her was an interrogation and unfriendly reaction. She mostly answered their questions all the time.

The welcoming feast lasted forty minutes with the additional chat. Since they were friendly, Rosalie did not mind the additional time she spent with them at the table. Elin ended the gathering and led her to her room.

”If you need anything, donʼt hesitate to ask Origin. Have a lovely rest, Rosalie.”

The room was ten times bigger than the room she used for the trial, not just bigger but it was luxuriously decorated. She did not waste her time admiring her room as she threw herself on the bed. The bed was much more comfortable than the one Tang Shaoyang brought with him all the time.

”Please wake me up in four hours, Origin,” Rosalie made a request to Ai. She was afraid that she would oversleep with how comfortable the bed was. Before Origin could respond, a light snore came from the red-haired woman. Despite how easy the trial was, the mental exhaustion took her to her dreamland quickly.

Rosalie stood in the middle of the sea of fire. The ground melted under her fire, turning everything around him into lava. The scream of monsters and beasts rang in the air as they were burned by her fire. Meanwhile, behind him, millions of troops were awaiting her order as they sang praises for her.

It was the moment she enjoyed the most, the victory of a war. Suddenly a gargantuan shadow hovered above her, and she looked up. The black-scaled dragon hovered above her, flapping its wing. A flap of its wing created a strong gush, but it did not faze. She held her chin up and was ready to face the final boss. It was the final epic battle against the Evil Dragon.

Just as she was about to fight the dragon, she felt a pain on the back of his head. She blinked her eyes and the scenery changed. She saw the white ceiling, then a very loud noise assaulted her ears.

”Stop! Please stop it! It hurts my ears!” The Flame Empress realized that it was just a dream, and she came back to reality now. She was still far off to fight the real dragon. The metal music stopped and the peaceful atmosphere returned to the room.

[I apologize for my rudeness, but I have called you a lot of times, but you did not wake up. I pulled out the loud music, and you still did not wake up. So I have to shake the bed and throw you to the ground to wake you up. You have been sleeping for four hours and fifteen minutes.] Originʼs voice followed after the silence.

The Flame Empress sobered up. She stood up and headed toward the door. It was time for the next trial.

[Lady Elin has prepared food for you. You can bring the food with you into the trial, and she also prepared tea and coffee. She doesnʼt know what you like, so she prepared both for you.]

Rosalie halted her steps, then she glanced toward the table in the living room. There were a lot of lunch boxes and two cups of drink. She turned toward the table, retrieving the food from her inventory before glancing at the cup. These two drinks did not exist in her world, and she was kinda curious. Especially the coffee that Tang Shaoyang often drinks in the morning.

She picked up the coffee and took a sip. Her face crunched into bitterness, sticking out her tongue from the bitterness of the drink.

[If you canʼt handle the bitterness, you can add sugar or milk. Those small cups are the sugar and milk.]

Rosalie did not hesitate to put the milk into the coffee before giving it a second try. It was much better with the milk, but it was still bitter. After mixing it with the milk, she chugged the whole cup of coffee in one go, emptying the cup. It was her appreciation to Elin for making her the coffee.

”I think I understand why he drank coffee. It helps me to wake up.”

The coffee really helped her to get rid of her sleepiness. After having such a good sleep, the sleepiness took over her.

[You are not supposed to drink coffee like that though. You should take a sip, slowly….]

Rosalie ignored the Ai who kept explaining to her about the coffee. Maybe Origin was lonely with no one to talk with. He told her the content of the coffee and told her what helped her to wake up. She returned to the trial floor and returned to her assigned attendant. She was supposed to tell her assigned attendant before taking the next trial.

There was no more interview for the second trial. The attendant just asked her what she took as a reward in the Trial of Epic before she was given permission to take the Trial of Ancient in the same room.

[Do you want to take the Trial of Ancient? Yes/No?]

Rosalie opened her window status, making sure he had allocated all her Attribute Points. After that, she tapped yes and entered the portal for the trial.
