War with the savage barbarians at the border which was not calming down turned to a critical point when the opposition launched a sneak attack on Heun with a poisonous dagger.Now the matter was not simply defending the border cities but also to wipe out the existence of the enemies such that they could never rise. If the monarch of a country returns injured and bloody without harming the opponent heavily, the commoners would lose hope.
General Bezus whose prime wish was to usurp the imperial family and control crown prince Alexander visited Empress of Ambrose-Feyore who was his cousin sister from maternal aunt to inform her of a piece of secret that he had heard from his spies in the palace
Emerald Jade from Southern Empire of Darren which was considered much more precious than one's life was crushed in such a rage that it broke into millions of pieces making the maids and personal servants of Empress Feyore tremble as they kneeled without delay.
"This official must inform her majesty that even though there are only two princes and one princess in the imperial harem for now yet the favored concubine of the emperor is pregnant and one would never know when she must bore a son......her majesty must think about her children's future."
Despite Bezos waving his tongue to manipulate the truth Empress, as soon as the man went out of the chamber Feyore closed her eyes and released a hellish laugh that was light and blossoming with joy.
"His majesty considers all women in his inner palace as ants, it is only this empress that could give birth to a child and one fears if it was not for consummating marriage and producing heir this empress too would have been childless. How impudent of a lowly official to assume that the emperor would even bat an eyelash towards a concubine.....this one who reigns over the imperial harem is well aware that his majesty never visited that wench......head maid investigate this matter well."
Unknown to Feyore there was one in this world whom Emperor Heun wanted more than he wished to breathe, a woman in pure sacred snow was sitting under a pear tree sipping her wine when those onyx irises lost their color and went completely white signifying that she was having a vision of the future- a prophecy of the goddess.
How many nightmares those eyes have seen? How many of those had she lived for the entirety of her life yet when the current vision was established the porcelain fingers trembled making the cup fall and shatter into millions of pieces.
How could a mother not feel her child's pain? The fear and anxiety of an nine year old innocent soul? Despite giving birth to a dragon and knowing he was someone who could rule the realm in future the process of becoming a monarch was harsh and brutal enough to break the entire mind of a person.
Yet Helixis was the one to persist.
When choosing comfort and valor....life and death she will follow the destiny given by goddess. Her son even if had to survive on his own, he must.
Learn the meaningless life of a slave
Survive through the difficulties of a poor
and at last climb the ladder of honor and justice, truth and power and live as lavish as Kings
Control over every single soul yet controlled by none
The test of the goddess has begun.
