Capítulo 57: ARC FIVE:CH-5.7
"How could you do this to me! Xiao Ming! I am your mother!"
Empress Ming yelled at his son.
His son stared down at him with ruthless eyes. With the same sword she would repeatedly see in this dream Xiao Ming slashed it down onto her body, stabbing her right shoulder. The hilt of the sword had the same pink flower keychain dangling on it.
"You tried to harm my person. You deserve death!"
She steered her eyes at the slender figure next to her son. The person's face was still a blur. She narrowed her eyes trying to have a closer look on the figure's face but before she could find out the appearance of the person she had her throat slit by the blade.
"Cough! Cough!" She woke up coughing frantically. Her body was shaking and sweating at the same time.
"Your highness!" The maid beside her handed her some water.
Empress Ming drank some before pushing it away. She was too distressed. The nightmare....it kept repeating the same scene of her dying by her son's hands. It was getting more and more vivid as time went on as if implying something.
Not good. She thought to herself. She needed to have a meeting with her son.
The next morning she did as she said.
"Xiao Ming! Sit down. We are having morning tea together." She said to her son.
Xiao Ming did as his mother told him to do so. When he sat down he told one of the servant to fetch something from his bedroom.
"Did you get yourself a lover?" She asked carefully. Her soul agitated to hear the answer.
Xiao Ming smiled lightly. "Yes mother. I will bring him to meet you someday." His mother never really disturbed his private life. For that he was rather thankful. Because of this he had his adventure time to venture out until he found his Yue Ling.
Empress Ming hid her anxious self. She smiled at him. "Good. Let me meet him soon."
"Okay." Just thinking about Yue Ling he wanted to leave right away. He saw the servant walking back with the thing he told him to fetch. Standing up he bowed to his mother. "I shall take my leave then."
Empress Ming smiled as she saw him walk away. Just as she was about to avert her eyes she froze. The tea cup in her hands fell down to the ground, shattering to pieces. Her eyes were wide with fear, and shock.
The noise caused Xiao Ming to look back. He then saw his mother make a horrid expression as of she had seen a ghost. "What's wrong mother?" He rushed over. But even when he came closer her eyes were fixated on something. Then he heard her say.
"S....so...so....son. Where did you get your sword from?" She stuttered anxiously, her voice trembling.
Xiao Ming was confused. But he did not think much of it. "My lover bought it for me."
Thump!
Empress Ming felt her heartbeat drop. She was shocked and terrified to see the very same sword with a pink flower keychain dangling from its hilt...the same sword from her nightmare into her son's hand. It was as if.... She was so shocked that she went silent.
"Mother....is there something wrong with my sword?"
Ah? Empress Ming could barely contain her composure from breaking down. "No..." She shook her head. "No...its just I have never seen it before so I just asked...." To hide her panicked self she pretended to yawn covering half of her face with her long sleeves.
Xiao Ming smiled as he stared at the sword. "Then I shall leave. The banquet should be starting soon." That said he left.
After he was gone she said to her head maid. "Go and investigate his lover. Also, bring me a portrait of that person." Her eyes were still feeling from the shock she went through. At this rate that dream....it seemed as if it wasn't just an occuring nightmare.
"Yes. Your highness."
The long awaited banquet was finally here. The banquet where the final trap was going to be set up.
All the guests began to enter one by one.
"Emperor Chen from Duo kingdom has arrived."
The announcer read the guest's name one by one as they entered.
"Emperor Xiao from Zu kingdom has arrived."
"Emperor Long from Lizao kingdom has arrived."
"Emperor Zhen from Wu kingdom has arrived."
"Emperor Wang from Da Lao kingdom has arrived."
The crowd of guests and the attendants craned their necks to peek at the infamous couple that was the talk of the kingdom. A tall man with a masculine build dressed in dark robes, his handsome face adorned by a scar on his right eye accompanied by an enchanting beauty beside him, his light blue hair fluttering in the air with a red petal mark on his neck, dressed in dark clothes as they walked side by side each other. Even from the way they dressed in matching outfits to the gentle gaze they shared when looking at each other everyone could tell that the rumours were not exaggerating.
The rumour that the bloody emperor Wang has finally fallen in love was true as well as the could beauty of the kingdom being in love with the bloodthirst emperor was indeed true.
Curious gazes followed the couple as they sat down to take their seats.
The guests continued to arrive one by one.
Zheng kingdom, Luo kingdom, Mu kingdom, Duo kingdom, Youh kingdom, Wu kingdom, Bao sun kingdom, Lizao kingdom, Lan kingdom, Fei kingdom, Da Lao kingdom, Zu kingdom, Yilang kingdom, Fu kingdom and Xan kingdom....they were the fifteen kingdoms of this world. All the rulers of the kingdoms as well as their princes were present at the banquet by now. This lead to the commencement of the feast.
Ivar had his eyes on his targets. He gave Nulis the sign to sow a seed into the emperors of Xan and Youh kingdom. These two were the ones who would take care of General Xian and Uncle Zhan for him. General Xian and Uncle Zhan were two of the love interests who like Priest Du would ascend the throne by killing off the current emperor just for Yue Ling. All Ivar has to do was to use the current emperors to destroy them both. After all both Emperor Xian as well as the old Emperor of the Youh kingdom were just like Xiao Ming's mother, power crazed bastards. They were the perfect pawn for dealing with the love interests. Speaking of Uncle Zhan Ivar was very disgusted with this love interest. He was the first victim of Yue Ling's unparalleled beauty. The man who took him in when Yue Ling was still a child. This crazy uncle actually lusted after that white lotus ever since he laid his eyes upon the boy. Uncle Zhan, this man was actually so much intoxicated with the boy that he ended not only taking him in but he also groomed the boy just from a young age, touching him everytime the white lotus consented. He was the most disgusting out of all the love interests.
"Hey kitty." Wang Lei's whisper fell on his ears. Ivar turned to him, his round eyes gazing into the other's. Then he heard Wang Lei say. "I am loving this side of yours so much! How deep are you going to charm me with that look hm? At this rate I might have my heart explode to pieces."
Ivar coughed. He had a slight smile on his face as he whispered back into his ears. "You can't. You cannot have your heart explode or else it will trouble me a lot. Didn't you say that you stole my first kiss? So take responsibility and don't ever leave me." At the end of his words he whispered in a low magnetic voice. "Understood?"
Guang Wang Lei was enjoying this whispering conversation a lot. He smiled replying in a low whisper. "Understood. Ok!"
Ahem. The onlookers kept glancing at their table. The couple was being more sweet than what the rumours said. Moreover the faces they made were something they have never seen on the two individuals before. Every emperor present here was aware of Emperor Wang's cold, ruthless and bloody nature. So they found it rather difficult to see a new side of him before them. Just like him there were many who were aware of Sheng Yan's cold indifferent character but now the same person was smiling like a beaming moon light, his dazzling face lighting up with a beautiful glow.
Xiao Ming frowned. He have never ever seen Sheng Yan make a happy, engrossed, lovely face like that before. Moreover the cause of this was the infamous emperor. When did they even meet? How did they become so close this soon? Or perhaps was he cheating on him with that emperor? Thinking of the last thought he couldn't help but feel disgusted by Sheng Yan. He looked around to see Yue Ling who wa currently being pampered by uncle Zhan. Seeing this Xiao Ming was so irritated. Infact he was not the only one.
Prest Du kept glancing at Yue Ling. He carefully studied this person. As soon as he saw him he was able to confirm that this person was the figure he had seen in his vision. To think that the man renowned as the most beautiful man in the world was going to be the cause of downfall of many kingdoms.....it left an unsettling vibe to sit down on his soul. Priest Du had seen it. A more detailed vision of the world crumbling. Because of this person millions of people were going to suffer. Innocent, harmless people as well as the wicked and rich. He will have to investigate more about this person. His eyes steered towards the other princes he has seen in his vision.
Xiao Ming from Zheng kingdom.
Lord Chen from Duo kingdom.
Mo Wang from Bao sun kingdom.
Yang Ge from Fei kingdom.
Wei Dhao from Yilang kingdom.
Xiao Ling from Fu kingdom.
Wu Zhen from Wu kingdom.
Xu Long from Lizao kingdom.
Xue Lan from Lan kingdom and...
Wang Xiao from Zu kingdom.
He will have to keep an eye on all of them for now.
"God. Please give me strength to uphold your faith in me." He prayed in silence. Subconsciously his eyes fell on his king. That guy...he has lost it all. Shaking his head he continued to study the princes.
Ivar smiled. Everything is in its right place. Now he will just enjoy his life with Wang Lei and let things take the turns for the worst on its own. From the look on Priest Du's eyes he could already tell that he was studying his potential victims. Ivar found it funny because he was also initially a part of the harem but now he was going to clean off the princes one by one as an outsider.
The seeds he has sown...he could finally see it sprouting one by one. Like how Prince Jing had hostility in his eyes as he kept glaring at Prince Mu sitting a few distances away from him. Or like how Xiao Ming had trouble coming his way very soon. Even with that bastard Zhan and that general....they were soon going to fall into his trap.
When he saw Yue Ling get up as he whispered something into Uncle Zhan's ears Ivar's eyes lit up. This was going to be the final blow to that white lotus's reputation. Soon after that white lotus left he saw Lord Chen, one of the love interest follow outside. And of course Xiao Ming left as well after a bit while.
Ivar felt his lips curl up.
"So that Lord Chen has finally become a toxic yandere. Hm...those dreams paid of really well I guess." He talked to Nulis. Lord Chen was the yandere love interest in the harem. Ivar used that to make him go a little bit more crazier so that he would become a psycho love interest.
The system heard him say. Nulis was also enjoying the drama that was going to start. "Say Ivar can I ask you something?"
"What is it?"
Nulis thought for a while before replying. "Say....why didn't you just drugged that bitch in heat and throw him in a bed for the love interests to ravage him and then record them doing the deed then distribute all over the streets? That would be faster in destroying the protagonist's reputation. After all drugging those bitches in heat would have been easier!"
The system was quite brutal for suggesting this thought.
Ivar laughed. He then said. "Nulis. We have a bitch who is always in constant heat and love interests who are also awalys in heat....so why should we bother drugging them when everything we need is at its place? Besides doing things like that is not my type...afterall I don't have time to waste on them anymore." As he spoke he looked at Wang Lei. That's right.
"I have someone more important than those silly things right now. That's all."
But that didn't mean he wouldn't have his revenge.
Lord Jing kept gulping down the cup of wine of his table. His face looked conflicted as if he was struggling thinking of something troublesome.
Bang!
He hit the wine cup aganist the table. Because the people were drowning in their own bussiness no one paid heed to the sudden slam aganist the table.
"..." His eyes looked rather sullen as Lord Jing narrowed his eyes towards Lord Mu. The glare in his eyes was that of disgust and anger.
The cause of all this hatred was still visiting him every night.
"Little sister...Little sister..." He kept sobbing in his drunken state.
Nulis who have manipulated Lord Jing's memory couldn't help but feel pity for this love interest.
Ivar told the system to bait this guy with his late younger sister.
Mei Jing. That was the name of the late younger sister. Lord Jing loved her deeply. She was his darling sister. Unfortunately she committed suicide one year ago from the present time line. All she left behind was a suicide note saying that she couldn't overcome the grief of having her lover leave her for someone else. Lord Jing went frantic after that. He turned the kingdom upside down searching for the lover mentioned in the note but he never found him.
Ivar told Nulis to use this memory to cause a rift between Lord Jing and Lord Mu. The system had manipulated Lord Jing's memory into thinking that he had finally found the guy behind his sister's suicide. Fabricating evidences against Lord Mu the system have perfectly framed him as the lover of the dead Mei Jing. Moreover Nulis arranged nightmares for Lord Jing to visit every night. Him dreaming of his sister's death each and every night, her body hanging off the ceiling has done its job.
"Brother.....brother Jing....sobs sobs...."
Mei Jing would call out to him every night sobbing pitifully.
"Bother Jing....please avenge me. Sobs. Sobs. It was all Lord Mu's fault. He....he left me for someone else....hic...."
Lord Jing's eyes were bloodshot, his pupils fixated on Lord Mu's exposed neck.
His sister was asking for justice visiting him through his dreams. For her soul to rest in peace he had to kill that bastard who caused Mei Jing's death!
This poor love interest didn't even knew that the Lord Mu that he was planning to kill right now was indeed not his sister's lover.
After all, It was Ivar's plan to manipulate his weakness to the fullest.
