God Emperor In The Body of a Rich Merchant

Chapter 11: The Most Beautiful Gift

Before teleporting to the palace, Emperor Quelle advised the Goddess Afia to take good care of Empress Ignia and not to let the Empress out of the Giginger royal palace.

Currently, Empress Ignia was asking about Emperor Quelle's whereabouts. Of course it makes Dewi Afia feel hesitant to say it.

"I have to how? I should how? If I tell you the truth, then the Empress will worry about the Emperor and force herself to follow him to the imperial palace....

If I keep quiet, then the Empress will find out for herself.

Trying to lie to her? I really don't dare." thought Goddess Afia worriedly.

"Goddess Afia?" Empress Ignia called out the name of the goddess who was still dissolved in anxiety.

Goddess Afia looked dreamy, without giving the slightest response.

"Goddess Afia? Are you okay?"  Empress Ignia clasped the hand of Goddess Afia.

At that time Dewi Afia just gave a response, "Ah~ yes, yes. I'm fine, Empress."

Empress Ignia stared intently, looking deeply into the eyes of Goddess Afia, "Are you hiding something from me?"

Goddess Afia was misbehaved, waving both hands she replied, "Ah no, no. Of course there is nothing I hide from you, Empress. I really don't dare..."

"really? If so, now you answer my question! Where's my husband?"

The deg!

"Wine! I have not found the right way to answer the Empress's question... Aduuuhh, how is this? What do I have to answer?" Goddess Afia lowered her gaze, trying to find a way out of this problem.

"All right, I'll say it."

Goddess Afia took a deep breath, and tried to be calm.

"Regarding that, His Majesty the Emperor asked me to keep this a secret from the Empress." replied the Goddess Afia.

"Confidential?" Empress Ignia asked briefly.

"True Empress, secret. I dare not tell this secret to the Empress. I'm sorry Empress, I promised Her Majesty to keep Her Majesty's whereabouts a secret from the Empress."

Empress Ignia sighed, then she asked again, "Didn't you also promise me not to hide anything from me? If you keep it a secret, don't you dare break your promise to me?"

Goddess Afia calmly replied, "The empress, keeping a secret does not mean that I am hiding something from the Empress.... I said that His Majesty the Emperor asked me to keep the secret of his existence, including conveying what I should convey to the Empress, with nothing I should hide from the Empress."

"Hm... Makes sense." thought Empress Ignia.

"Alright, alright. I don't want to argue with you!"

"I'm sorry Empress!"

"No need to apologize! From your answer, I already know that Your Majesty is not here!"

Goddess Afia was embarrassed.

Empress Ignia closed her eyes, focused her mind and concentrated the power of transmitting the aura of a god, the aura of power belonging to Emperor Quelle.

".....!!! He is not in this sky!!! Has the fight with Granel started?" thought Empress Ignia.

Empress Ignia covered both eyes still closed with her hands in a horizontal perpendicular position.  Then he moved both his hands in the right direction. The right hand is moved to the right, and the left hand is moved to the left until both hands do not cover both eyes.

Empress Ignia opened both eyes,

"Observation! Lenca area!!!" The Empress used the ability to see long distances to see the state of Emperor Quelle's palace.

"As I suspected, the show I was looking forward to has begun" Empress Ignia said in a heartfelt statement.

"What's really going on? Why did the Imperial Palace become like this?" Empress Ignia looked worried. Anxious in falsehood.  "No! Nah! I shouldn't be here! I must return to the Imperial palace!"

Taps!

Empress Ignia stepped foot, got out of bed and prepared to teleport.

"Wait!" Goddess Afia held the wrist of Empress Ignia, trying to prevent the empress from returning to the palace. "I beg you Empress, I beg you to stay here!"

Empress Ignia stared intently, "Quick get your hands off me!" his orders.

The goddess replied, "No! I will not let you into the Imperial palace! "

"You dare to challenge me?!" Empress Ignia looked angry.

"I don't dare. I'm sorry Empress. I just don't want anything bad to happen to the Empress. Right now, the condition of the Imperial palace is in chaos, of course it is very dangerous for the Empress if the Empress comes there now! So, I beg the Empress to remain here until the palace is completely safe."

"Everything that happens there is already part of my responsibility!" Empress Ignia pulled her wrist, breaking free from the hand of Goddess Afia.

Goddess Afia was only able to act resignedly.

"Teleport!" Empress Ignia teleported to the Imperial palace.

Swoooozh!!!

........

The Quelle Imperial Palace

Scwertz's words ignited emotion.

Prince Cusso, who had been cornered, struggled with all his might, trying to turn things around.

"Shut your mouth!!!" Prince Cusso moved as fast as lightning, attacking Scwertz with his flagship technique. "Yeahhh"

"Technique of the king of gods! Divine shining slash!!!"

The "Divine shining slash" technique is a fast attack technique with an infinite number of pieces. This attack skill is able to cut the target into the smallest particles that cannot be seen in plain sight.

Scwertz delivers similar attacks, but with different levels of power.

Prince Cusso and Scwertz, both of whom were both at the god king stage. Merely, Scwertz's power stage was slightly higher compared to the level of the power stage that Prince Cusso had.

"Technique of the king of gods! Divine shining slash!!!"

Swieigg!!!

Clang!!!

The light that dazzled the eyes, that was the sight that could be seen from the impact of the clash of forces of both sides.

Ctack!!!

Prince Cusso's sword is broken.

Whooo!!!

Prince Cusso bounced far away, until his body hit the rubble of a building that had collapsed.

"Yout!!! Oh cough!!! Oh!!!"

Prince Cusso was badly injured, coughing and bleeding from his mouth.

"....!!!!"

Scwertz felt an extremely powerful radiance of energy. The radiance of energy that felt familiar to him.

"These radiations of energy." said Scwertz.

Scwertz turned his gaze toward the source of the energy radiance that seized his attention.

"Per...consort of Ignia?" Scwertz was surprised to see the figure of Empress Ignia who had suddenly been in the palace. "Isn't the Queen seriously injured? Nah! Can't! Empress Ignia can't be here! This place is very dangerous for the Empress's disguise! I must take the Empress away from this place!" thought Scwertz.

"Scwertz, what exactly has happened here?" ask the Empress to Scwertz.

Scwertz did not immediately reply, but he was still thinking about what steps he would have to take the Empress to safety.

At the moment Scwertz was thinking, without realizing it, Empress Ignia had been near Prince Cossu.

Scwertz was surprised to realize that.

"Empress Ignia! Get away from her!" scwertz's orders to Empress Ignia, without regard to the distinction of office.

Empress Ignia ignored Scwertz's orders.

Scwertz was anxious, he took steps to take Empress Ignia away from the Palace.

Scwertz standing near Empress Ignia, he reached out, trying to grab the Empress' right wrist.

"I'm sorry Empress, I have to....."

Dugg!!!

Unexpectedly, Empress Ignia attacked Scwertz with her right palm.

Scwertz bounced far, through walls, trees, large rocks, until embedded deep in the cliffs of the hills.

"Coughs! Cough! Cough!" Scwertz looked badly injured. He tried to get up, but.....

"What's? Deadly flower roots?" Scwertz was surprised to see the roots of the deadly flower wrapped around his body. The thorny roots, containing a very powerful poison, each touch of poison was able to melt the bones of someone who was still at the god stage.

"The Empress is going to kill me?" Scwertz was aware of the cause of the recent chaos. "Could possibly... Could it be the Empress who was the mastermind of all this?"

Shortly after Scwertz realized the cause of the chaos in the sky of Gloxinia, suddenly Empress Ignia had already flown in before him.

"Wine! I have to get out of here!" Scwertz attempted to break away from the root's winding, but could not. The more he tried to break away, the stronger the roots were.

Empress Ignia just smiled looking at Scwertz's face that looked panicked in fear.

Empress Ignia came over, then she whispered the word "Thank you for participating in my show. Take the most beautiful gift from me!"

"Soul sucking flower!"

"YARRRGGGHHHH!!!!

"AAAGGHHHH!!!"
