Rise of the Legendary Emperor
Chapter 12: Minister Brian
The morning sun started to rise in and painted the cloudy black sky into a vivid blue sky like an expert artist. The white puffy clouds started to resume their journey and slowly moved away as the curtains on the tavern rooms added an orange glow to the morning light while the sunlight under the door glowed like a ghoul's grin.
Soon after the lively morning rays had started to warm up the room, Don woke up and sat on his bed in a meditation position and started to cultivate battle energy for a while. Today he had plans to meet Minister Brian and luckily, he was presented with an excellent opportunity in the form of Thousand arms auction house.
"Enjoy your last day Minister Brian" a cold killing intent developed in his eyes.
********************************************
At same the moment in another place
A man was lying on the bed half-naked, beside him there was a bulk under the bedsheets, the curtains in the room were closed as one or two sun rays came through the gapes and looked like light needles.
On the floor were some clothes and liqueur bottles,
Seeing the bottles he vaguely remembered him partying and bringing a woman to his room and looking at the bulge under the bedsheets beside him, he guessed that the bulge under the bed sheets might be the woman he brought yesterday but before he could remove the bedsheets,
(Knock knock)
The man seemed irritated when he heard someone knocking his bedroom,
"Who is there"
"Minister Brian it's me, Jacob" the man outside the door answered politely.
"What do you want? Don't you know it's too early to bother me"
"Sorry Minister Brian but you asked me to remind you about the Thousand arms auction"
"Idiot! don't you know they won't start the damn thing without ME!, their lord" Minister Brian shouted as the man outside the door didn't say anything.
"Go and ask them to prepare the breakfast and ask Rosaline to come here"
"Yes Minister Brian"
Minister Brian heard the sound footsteps fading as he turned to see the woman sleeping under the bedsheets, he tapped which felt like her shoulder but she didn't respond so he shook her
"Damn woman, get up before I strangle you in your beauty sleep " still she didn't say or respond to him which made him furious.
Finally, he pulled away the bedsheets that covered her to see the body of a young woman and a pair of lifeless eyes stared at him.
There was a deep bloody cut across her neck and dried blood all over her dress and the bed under her.
Seeing the horrible scene, Minister Brian jumped out of the bed in terror and naked
"Oh, shit" he was scared to see the dead body suddenly,
And jumped again in fear when he heard someone knocking the door,
(knock knock)
"Who is that " his voice had a small wave of nervousness to it.
"Minister Brian, it's Rosaline" a feminine voice answered Brian's question.
He relaxed a bit when he heard her and took one of the robes lying around on the floor to put it on himself and then went to open the door.
The woman stood outside the made a small bow, this woman was the head of the five mid great master level personal guards that Akihiro told Don about, Rosaline.
Minister Brian made a gesture and let her in,
She dressed in a red mage robe while her black hair wavy hair touched the shoulder, Rosaline held a red staff which was decorated with magical runes and had phoenix figuring on top of it.
Minister Brians looked at the woman in front of him and gasped, deep down in his heart he wanted to bed this woman but he couldn't. For him, she was too hot to handle, literally since she was a powerful fire mage. He made some moves for a while when he first saw her but when he witnessed Rosaline burn a man alive for hitting on her, he backed down and never tried anything silly.
So he didn't long for the fruit that he couldn't eat as he pointed his finger at the bed and asked,
"Who is this woman? Why is she dead?"
"She killed herself," Rosaline flatly said.
"Why?"
Rosaline stared at the body of the dead woman for a bit,
"You brought her from one of your shops" the response of Rosaline contained a slight disgust,
"Then you tried to rape her but she broke one of the liqueur bottles and cut her own neck"
"Idiot" Minister Brian exclaimed but Rosaline didn't look at him or replied to him for a while
"You should get dressed, the auction starts in a few hours"
"Humph! like they start without me" he sneered but started to walk in the direction of the wardrobe.
"I'll go and check-in with the guard detail" Rosaline curtsied a little bow and left the room without looking back.
"Tell the guards to dispose of this body" he ordered Rosaline while walking.
When all said and done, Minister Brian stood in front of the mirror and stared at the reflection to see a plump fat man looking at him. He had short golden hair, he was not too short nor too tall, but those eyes staring at him were red due to the hangover.
He whistled and rubbed his hands in excitement about the auction
"Who is the beauty I'm having for me tonight" an evil smile emerged on his face while thinking about the night.
*****************
Amaryll didn't get a good night's sleep yesterday. She was thinking about everything that happened recently and the fact Don went to meet Minister Brian was piercing her heart like a needle for some reason. When the first light of the sun came to her hut, she woke up and tied her ruffled golden hair loosely and walked outside.
The forest was lush green. The grass was bathed in the morning dew and glittered as the trees were skyscraper tall. Some magical creatures were scampering away from the campsite whilst the morning stars were glistening like silver snowflakes through the thick dense forest leaves. The peace of the morning was soul-soothing to Amaryll and the forest's smell was fresh and organic.
She admired the beauty that nature had offered and looked at the colorful wildflowers on the floor with awe and eventually, she picked a wildflower and tried to put it on her head but a thunderous roar of a lion startled her. Hearing the roar, she turned in the direction of Don's hut in an impulse to see a bright light that resembled a moonlight was covering the hut.
"What... What is happening?" Arwen came out of his hut holding his bow ready to fight and covered his eyes when he saw Don's hut,
"I don't know but I think it's Knight" Amaryll shouted.
Again the thunderous roar came from the hut but there was also a high pitched noise that made all the elves in the campsite close their ears, the light glowed brighter and brighter. Amaryll took a peek at the light through her fingers to see the shadow of two wings besides a dark figure which seemed like the body of a lion. They closed their eyes and ears tightly for a while.
And finally after a few moments, the light started to dim and the high pitched noise reduced which made the elves uncover the eyes and ears but they stared at Don's hut frightened.
"HaHaHa, finally the moon level" Knight walked out the tent with happy smiles and ruffled his mane in a kingly manner and spread its long wings.
However his grin froze on his face as he realized that he made a big ruckus while breaking through to the moon realm by seeing the terrified faces of the elves in front of him, they were pale and some children even tightly hugged their mothers' legs.
Amaryll came out of the initial shock and found out something wrong with Knight
"Knight what the hell was that you scared all of us and huh" she paused for a moment and stared suspiciously at Knight
"What happened to your hair," Amaryll asked in wonderment.
Knight ruffled his mane again with an arrogant look
"What's wrong with it aside from being astonishing" Knight will get cocky whenever he talked about his mane, Don knew about this but the elves didn't,
Amaryll giggled and looked funnily at Knight when he saw that cocky look of his,
"Ha, then why are you white" she teased him.
Knight smiled proudly and stepped forward
"That Amaryll, because I've reached the Moon level"
