My Wife is the Asura Empress

When Layla and Nyla awoke in the afternoon, they were filled in on the plan. Layla hesitated at first, not wanting to slow the others down, but Lia managed to convince her by emphasizing the importance of training together from the Silver stage and explaining the challenges of going solo.

Afterward, the girls began packing for their adventure together. Lia had already informed Dylan about their plans and decided to visit her garden one last time, as it held a special place in her heart.

As she gazed at the rainbow tree and the little elves dancing around it, a familiar voice echoed in her mind.

"Is the Asura Empress worried about her Garden?" asked the elven beauty with an enigmatic tone.

"How do you know?" Lia furrowed her brows in surprise, recognizing Eve's voice. Although they often spoke without Rio's knowledge, Lia was caught off guard because Eve seemed to be aware of something the others weren't.

"This Monarch knows that Rio's wifey is stressed about the future that's coming. But don't worry, I can help you keep them safe in my wondrous forest realm. That way, you won't have to see them in a destroyed condition," Eve offered her solution, understanding Lia's Eyes of Destiny and her concern for her garden's fate.

Lia hesitated, wondering how Eve knew about her visions. It was a secret she had kept locked away in her heart. But upon hearing Eve's offer, she found it difficult to refuse. The rainbow tree was special to her, as it had been cared for by her mother. She had lied to Rio about it in the past, not wanting to show vulnerability in front of someone she had just met.

With a soft sigh, Lia decided to accept Eve's help, "Alright, I'll trust you with my garden's safety."

She knew that entrusting her cherished garden to Eve was the best option to ensure its protection, allowing her to focus on the challenges and adventures that were going to come her way in the future.

"Yay! I can't wait to have this beautiful tree in my wondrous  forest realm. It will add even more colors to the already colorful world," Eve exclaimed cheerfully, her excitement contagious. "Don't worry, Lia. I'll take good care of it and make sure it flourishes under my watchful eye."

Hearing Eve's offer, Lia couldn't help but feel like she was being robbed with her own permission. It was like giving away her prized possessions to a stranger and hoping for the best.

She jokingly entertained the thought that Eve might just be a plant thief in disguise, but the idea of her beloved rainbow tree being safe in the wondrous forest realm was too tempting to resist. Besides, she knew that Eve was Rio's partner and she trusted her to keep her garden and its plants secure.

"I hope you're not planning on selling my rainbow tree on the black market, Eve," Lia joked, trying to lighten the mood. 

Eve giggled at Lia's remark, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Your rainbow tree will be safe and sound in my wondrous realm, guarded by this beautiful, charming elven monarch. Besides, you know I can't mess with you since you're my partner's true lord. Without your permission, I can't conquer his heart completely, even if I want to."

Lia couldn't help but laugh at the thought of being Rio's lord. She didn't want to be a dictator but an ideal wife who thought about what was good for him and what made him happy. "Alright, you win. Please take care of my precious plants and the rainbow tree. Just make sure they're well-fed and watered, and maybe sing them a lullaby once in a while."

Eve flashed a cheerful, business-like smile and replied, "Consider it done, your majesty. Your garden will thrive under my care. You can trust me, I promise."

Following Eve's guidance, Lia moved from one precious plant to another, transferring each of them into the wondrous forest realm. Finally, it was the turn of the rainbow tree, her most treasured possession and a memento from her mother. With a sigh, Lia prepared to let go, trusting Eve to keep it safe in her magical domain.

As she gazed at the little elves and the rainbow tree, it suddenly vanished before her eyes. The garden still had other plants, but it seemed to have lost its glimmer without the presence of the rainbow tree.

Seeing a hint of sadness on Lia's face, Eve decided to lift her spirits with a cheerful tone. "Don't you want to see your garden?"

"Can I really?" Lia asked, her voice filled with childlike wonder, doubting the possibility of entering Eve's wondrous forest realm without Rio's assistance.

Eve responded silently, as a shadowy backdoor materialized before Lia, visible only to her. Somehow, Lia knew this was the answer to her question, and she stepped forward, disappearing into the portal.

Entering the wondrous forest realm, Lia found herself in an open area filled with all her plants, including a pond reminiscent of the one in her garden, surrounded by aromatic flowers. This new garden, a thoughtful gift from Eve, not only resembled Lia's original but also featured additional plants from Eve's collection.

Eve understood the importance of keeping Lia happy, knowing that if she wanted Rio then it would be impossible without her approval. As Lia took in the beauty of her new garden, she couldn't help but smile, appreciating the care and attention Eve had shown her.

Lia approached the rainbow tree at the center of the garden, watching the little elves dance around it just as they had before. She noticed their smiles, seemingly happier in their new surroundings. Lia felt overjoyed as well, seeing not only the rainbow tree and the elves but also the butterflies from Eve's own garden. She knew these were her plants, and with Eve's unbreakable connection to Rio, she felt assured that her precious tree would remain safe in the future.
