Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 36 Empress
Cohen and Prince Hauge left the palace. The Prime Minister looked at Cohen's back and said meaningfully:
"If you only look at the hardware, he's becoming more and more like a king."

The queen handled government affairs silently without saying a word.

The Prime Minister was silent for a few seconds and then said:

"Do you really want to help him remove the spell?"

The queen had no expression on her face and said calmly:

"I don't want to argue with my father about this anymore. If you insist on stopping me, then go ahead."

The Prime Minister's expression froze, and his tone became stronger:

"Do you really not understand or are you pretending to be confused?
The reason why he treats you so well now is entirely because he lost ten years of memory, and his memory of you only stays at the time when you first entered the palace to be his magic teacher.

Have you ever thought that if he really recovers his memory, will he still be so dependent on and admire you!

Don't forget, in his eyes, we Angryon are treacherous ministers who have usurped his throne!"

The Prime Minister unconsciously raised his voice, as if wanting to hit his daughter hard and break her fantasy:

"And you, in his eyes, are not some caring and thoughtful older sister, but a tyrannical queen who abuses her power and presides over everything!"

The queen's body stiffened, and her fair hands, which handled government affairs, trembled slightly.

In a moment, a chill descended, and her emotions froze again. She lowered her eyelids and said indifferently:

"Father, if you are afraid of a counterattack from His Majesty, you can resign as Prime Minister."

The Prime Minister felt discouraged and no longer wanted to argue with his daughter, so he got up and left.

There was no emotion in the queen's eyes as she continued to handle government affairs with her head down.

Like the queen, in the Central Empire of the Demonic Continent, there is also a stunningly beautiful woman who is handling the heavy affairs of state.

In the magnificent palace, the empress sat high on the magnificent throne, her posture tall and majestic.

As if she had walked out of a dream scroll, her long golden hair fell to her waist like a waterfall, and every strand of hair sparkled with brilliant light, as if it had been touched by the goddess of light herself.

The empress had a dignified and solemn face, her eyes as deep as the abyss, revealing endless wisdom and decisiveness. She held the memorial in her hand and reviewed it attentively.

Beside her, several female officials served respectfully. The palace was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood. Sunlight shone through the carved windows onto the ground, creating patches of mottled light and shadow, which further highlighted the solemnity of the scene.

Soon, the sound of cheerful footsteps interrupted the atmosphere.

A pretty girl walked lightly and rushed into the empress's palace. As soon as she entered, she shouted:
"Shannis, Shannis, I recently discovered an interesting person."

The empress didn't even raise her head and replied calmly:
"Windsardler, it was a wrong decision for Archmage Victor of the Sanctuary to release you from the Magic Tower."

The woman named Windsordale frowned and muttered:
"I guarantee you'll be interested in him."

"A man?"

Windsordale nodded heavily:

"I swear, in my long one hundred years of life, I have never met such an interesting man."

The Empress pointed out mercilessly:
“For a winged elf, a hundred years doesn’t seem very long.

Tell me, what is so special about this man?"

Windsordale said quickly:

"He can summon gods!"

"Ok?"

The empress paused, as if digesting the information conveyed by these two words.

She slowly raised her head, revealing a face that captivated everyone, and cast an inquiring gaze at Windsordeller.

Every time Windsordale saw Shannis's appearance, he would exclaim:
"Xannis, you really don't have the blood of our elves? Why do I feel that you are more beautiful than our Elf Queen?"

The Empress said coldly:
"I think you want to go back to the magic tower and reflect on your past. Let's get down to business!"

Windsardler curled his lips secretly and said honestly:

"It's that small country in the northwest continent that my teacher asked me to go to. He said he was going to help their king break a spell. A very powerful figure has appeared in the extraordinary arena there these days..."

The empress raised her eyebrows slightly and asked calmly:
"It's Effiin."

Windsordler smiled awkwardly and said:
"Sister Empress, you already know everything. It's that Effiin."

The empress's calm face rarely showed a trace of emotion, and she murmured:
"I heard that Yadel has been able to defeat the Legendary level?"

Windsard carefully observed the Queen's expression and whispered:

"It seems to be the case."

A hint of fighting spirit appeared in the depths of the Empress's eyes, and she said softly:
"She's progressing faster than I imagined. I was originally feeling sorry for her getting married, but becoming queen didn't slow down her cultivation. She's even more powerful than she was five years ago!"

Windsordale muttered:
"Isn't it just that you lost to her once five years ago? After all, you're a year younger than her, so it's not shameful..."

Five years ago, at the [International Nobles Martial Arts Festival], the eldest princess at the time, Cynthia, represented the Central Empire in the Silver Group competition.

As a result, he lost to the daughter of an unknown principality. This incident made the always proud Senis always feel resentful. Therefore, after he succeeded to the throne, he paid close attention to the situation of this small principality.

Her Majesty's expression suddenly turned cold, frightening Windsardler so much that he quickly said:

"This time it has nothing to do with her. It's a contestant in the Extraordinary Arena..."

Windsardler told the empress in detail what had happened in the Extraordinary Arena in the past two days.

“…That’s basically it. I was about to go to Effiin, so I asked the tribesmen there to keep an eye out for me. I didn’t expect to get such interesting news.

I estimate that the Imperial Intelligence Department will submit a formal report soon."

The Empress said slowly:

"So, after all this time, you still don't know his true identity?"

Windsordale looked embarrassed and said:

"I wasn't at the scene, so it's not easy to get such detailed information."

The Empress said in a deep voice:

"If your account isn't exaggerated, then the transcendental profession this person advanced to should be the ancient secret profession—Dragon Seal Weapon Master."

Windsordler nodded heavily:
"I thought so too. It's incredible that a human can advance to this profession."

The Queen glanced at Windsordale:
"Are you sure he's only sixteen?"

"Of course, the God of War's test pillar will not make mistakes."

The Empress was silent for a few seconds, and her tone changed:

"Compared to this, the most surprising thing is that he was able to complete the 'Summoning God' ceremony."

Windsordale muttered:
"That's what the old man said. Why do you care so much about this? It's just calling down a god. What's the big deal?

We elves also have a goddess, and I once communicated with her..."

The Queen ignored Windsardler's mumbling and said:
"You must have some other purpose in telling me this. Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Windsardler's face showed no embarrassment at having his tricks discovered, and he said as if to take credit:
"Sister Empress, you are also interested in this person. Do you need to send someone to contact him?
What do you think of me as your personal envoy?
Not only is he absolutely loyal to you, but he also doesn't attract attention. How wonderful..."

The Empress interrupted and said:

"How many days of leave did Sir Victor grant you?"

Windsordale said unhappily:

"Only ten days, and they put a 'positioning spell' on me. Ten days isn't even enough to make the round trip. I think the old man really doesn't want me to remove the seal on King Effiin."

The Empress' eyes flickered, and after a moment's thought, she said:

"I'll give you one month. No matter what progress you make in Aifeiyin, you must come back in one month."

Windsardler's face suddenly showed joy:
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
