Toxic Empress

Visiting Headquarters

An absolute decree of Derryl's mouth has been passed, now Xena is officially demoted from the status of Empress to concubine. Xena was not too concerned about the matter, nor was she willing to become Empress from the very beginning because her position with Brisia was treated equally by everyone in the empire, so Xena thought being the Empress and concubine was the same. Then the most benefited here is Brisia, maybe now she is jumping around happily in her room because soon she is officially appointed as Empress.

Derryl's decision drew praise from the nobles, they were satisfied and considered that the punishment was worth it. Adolph was not so concerned about Xena's Empress status, he even planned to take Xena's name off Duke Alister's family list. By the time Xena came out of the throne room, she brandished the middle finger while marking the face of the noble who would die the next day.

‘In a moment your death will bring a tremendous uproar to Charise. Enjoy some quiet time before you guys I send to see the King of Hell, Xena's inner’.

Then another decision was to hold Xena's palace for a whole month to wake Xena up from bad deeds. However, Xena would not obey him and she had also found a way to sneak outside the palace without being discovered by the palace dwellers. It was clear at that time the noise of the people who were busy talking about Xena, they also denounced that Xena's temperament and what she did to her own family was considered very bad. Not a few of them consider that the punishment from Derryl is still relatively mild.

This news also reached Xander's ears, now his workroom is messy due to his furious hand to destroy all humans in Charise. He went on a rampage so badly that Garvin needed knight power to hold Xander's body. A plan crosses Xander's head to tear apart the palace and kill Derryl, but everything is thwarted by Garvin.

“Those who hurt Xena will never forgive me, I make sure they crawl and suffer under my feet. Do they look down on my wife? Just look, soon a big storm will befall them,” grumbled Xander.

An hour later, Garvin arrives with a letter that Xena sent directly to Xander. As soon as Xena heard the letter, Xander spontaneously rose from his bed, his angry lines began to loosen.

“Just be quiet there and don't do much.”

Just that one sentence was written by Xena, she intended to appease Xander from going any further. But, from the letter proving that Xena is fine, it is enough for Xander. After that, Xander decided to obey Xena, she did not want Xena to nag her later. Garvin was only able to breathe a sigh of relief after Xander was calm, on the other hand he was also grateful that Xena looked fine.

In the evening, with Gia's permission, Xena sneaks outside the palace, heading for the headquarters of the Higanbana assassins. He traversed the wilderness alone, his body clad only in a thin black robe. Xena's mind was completely about to explode as it was filled with various things. Along the way he only focused on the complexity of the mind load he carried.

Upon arrival at the headquarters, Xena's sudden arrival made everyone rush to greet her. No one knew what reason brought Xena to headquarters in the dead of night.

“Nona, what brought you here?” ask Giselle.

Xena revealed the cloak hood that covered her face, much to everyone's surprise as she watched Xena's cold expression and filled with powerful killing intent. It's been a long time since they last found such a mimic.

“Gather everyone in the meeting room,” Xena's word instantly passes away after giving the order.

Soon they rushed to the meeting room, where there were Laiv, Klaus, Carian, Floris, Giselle, Elinor, and a number of others. Xena sat on the leader's seat, looking at the serious look from Xena, putting special pressure on all of them.

“Actually what happened to you, Miss? Is there a problem?” ask Floris.

“I just found out something that made my head dizzy, and what I found out was that me and Alina were not Adolph's real children, the baj*ngan guy,” Xena said.

“What?”

They were astonished the moment Xena revealed that, it was inconceivable to them how messed up Xena's heart was back then. Reflected from Xena's face of him trying to refrain from going berserk.

“Then the Emperor brings*k it lowered my status to be a concubine because I have hurt those biad*b humans. I was also locked up for a whole month in the palace without being able to communicate with outsiders. Maybe they hope I will realize\, but I refuse to realize because I am not wrong\,” said Xena.

“You should have just let us that time to trample his face,” furious Carian. They were infuriated by Derryl's behavior, it felt like at that time they wanted to fly to Charise just to beat Derryl.

“No problem about that, the most important thing now is there are things I want to talk to you guys.”

This is the real purpose of Xena's arrival, they are getting ready to set their ears to hear what Xena will talk about.

“Prepare yourself, we will start a new step,” Xena said.

Their faces all suddenly changed, they understood what Xena meant.

“Really? So, all the preparations are done? I can't wait to do it, ” Klaus said, his mind immediately filled with various bad thoughts.

“But, are you sure, Miss?” ask Laiv.

Xena nodded and offered, “Yakin, I leave the rest to you, Laiv. Immediately call our members who are scattered all over the world. Three more days of having them gather at the headquarters, do that after they've been collected. We will bring a big wave of change, I hope you guys can also be relied upon in this matter.”

Xena ended the meeting sooner than usual because Xena wanted to visit the slaves brought here by her subordinates. The number of slaves gathered in front of the castle was considerable. They seem to admire Xena, as it is known, Xena is the leader of a group of assassins who have saved their lives from slavery.

“Maybe most of you already know my name, but again I will introduce myself directly. Introduce, I'm Xena – leader of the higanbana killer, I'm sorry to have gathered you all these nights. The purpose of gathering you is that I want to remove the slave marks that are attached to your bodies. Today I will put an end to all forms of suffering you became a slave all this time.”
