You want to make me the devil, right?

“No need to be like this~”

The black-skirted woman stepped forward and helped Madam White Rose up, saying with a smile, “You are my friend~ Madam White Rose~”

In response, Madam White Rose smiled faintly and slowly stood up.

But inwardly, she scoffed.

“Strange~”

The black-skirted woman did not immediately state her purpose, but instead looked around in confusion, asking Madam White Rose, “Why is there such a peculiar fragrance here?”

As she spoke, she gracefully walked to the battlefield where Xia En and Madam White Rose had been just moments ago, standing there for a long time.

“I just sprayed some perfume from the Elf Kingdom,” Madam White Rose explained to the Queen.

“Oh~ Perfume?”

Upon hearing this, a hint of brilliance flashed in the Queen’s dark golden eyes.

Then, she said, “If possible, next time you come to the palace, bring me a new bottle. This scent… I like it very much.”

“Um…”

Madam White Rose nodded slightly, but her heart was filled with speechlessness.

How was she supposed to carry this stuff?

Squeeze some out of Xia En?

“Time is of the essence, let me get to the main point first.”

The Queen’s smile vanished in an instant at this moment, and she elegantly sat down on the sofa, saying to Madam White Rose, “Regarding the intelligence network of the White Rose Merchant Guild, I think it’s time you hand it over to me.”

“…”

Madam White Rose did not immediately respond, but remained silent.

Whether it was the White Rose Merchant Guild or the guild's intelligence network, all of it was established by her alone, and it cost a great deal of money.

But now, the Queen wanted to take it away without paying any price…

“What? Does Madam have any difficulties?”

The Queen said unhurriedly, “I hope you can understand, this is a necessary sacrifice. If the White Rose Merchant Guild wants to continue to survive in this land, it cannot do without my help.”

“Or…”

A trace of coldness flashed in the Queen’s dark golden eyes, “Have you betrayed me?”

“The intelligence network is temporarily being borrowed by the Elf Kingdom and will need some time before it can be fully delivered,” Madam White Rose explained.

Although she had now sided with Xia En, the Demon King had not yet grown up, so she needed to first resist all potential enemies for Xia En.

Even if she couldn't cope, she had to delay as much as possible.

“Elf Kingdom?” Upon hearing this, the Queen narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, curving them into a crescent shape.

After a moment of silence, she continued, “At most, one month. Within one month, I want the entire intelligence network of the White Rose Merchant Guild.”

“If you cannot make a decision, then I will make the decision for you. You better think carefully.”

“Madam White Rose!”

“I understand.”

Madam White Rose calmly nodded slightly, but her heart was filled with anger towards the Queen.

She would never allow the guild she had built with her own hands to become the Queen's possession!

“By the way~”

The Queen’s cold face suddenly turned into a smile again, and she said to Madam White Rose, “A few days ago, I brought in the daughter of that great seer to perform several predictions for me.”

“Guess what the result was?”

“Prediction?”

Madam White Rose's expression froze slightly when she heard the word 'prediction.'

The Queen raised the corners of her mouth slightly and continued, “I had her predict my fortune.”

“She said that within half a year, I will usher in the peak of my life~”

“Whether it’s wealth, power, or even relationships, a new chapter will begin.”

“Do you think this prediction will come true?”

“…”

Madam White Rose hesitated for a moment. She didn't know much about divination, but generally speaking, divination was usually accurate.

In other words, the Queen would usher in a true peak within half a year?

And she was already the Queen, the only reason she could take it a step further was to replace the King of the Dawn Empire, who was her husband, and become the Dawn Empress!

But…

Was that possible?

“Since it is a prediction from the daughter of the great seer, I think her prediction should be correct,” Madam White Rose replied.

“Is that so? But I don’t think so~”

The Queen chuckled lightly, saying disapprovingly, “My fortune depends on your White Rose Merchant Guild. If you betray me, how can there be an increase in fortune?”

“Your Majesty is overthinking it,” Madam White Rose explained in a calm tone, “The White Rose Merchant Guild’s intelligence network is temporarily lent to the Elf Kingdom because they have been kind to me. I think you also know Tissia’s origins.”

“Hmph~” The Queen snorted softly and said with a smile, “You are still so meticulous, your style of doing things always reassures people.”

“Madam White Rose, I hope you can always make the right choices, just like you chose me before, and the same afterwards.”

“Let the two of us women help each other, instead of relying on those dirty men, okay?”

Madam White Rose did not answer, only showing a smile.

“That’s it, I should go.”

“Take care.”

The Queen stood up gracefully and walked towards the door.

And before leaving the VIP room, she paused at the door for a moment.

The corners of her mouth curled into a subtle arc, and she whispered in a voice that others could not hear, “What a pleasant scent, that familiar aura~”

After speaking, a look of affection appeared in the Queen’s dark golden eyes~

…

“Wash the Demon King treasure, then sleep~”

After the first day of the friendship competition, Xia En returned to the dormitory, preparing to wash up and then go to sleep.

But just as he was happily bathing, suddenly, the glass of the room made a shattering sound.

“What’s going on?”

Xia En rushed out of the bathroom, looking at the person who broke into the room.

But he only saw a graceful figure flash past, then disappear without a trace.

“Who is it?”

Xia En was stunned in place. How could there be someone with the same entry method as Mina?

And the insecurity of the dormitory had long made him think about whether to move out.

Anyway, he already had money, buying a private manor was not a problem.

Or, living in the Convent of the Holy Maiden.

Just as Xia En was considering, he suddenly saw a pool of golden liquid left on the ground?

“What is this?”

Xia En stretched out his fingertip and lightly touched the golden liquid remaining on the ground.

The golden liquid stuck to his fingertip, and after bringing it close to his nose, it emitted a rich fragrance.

But for some reason, Xia En was sure with just a slight sniff that this liquid should be sweat!

Someone left a pool of sweat in his dormitory?

What the hell?

How strange!

No way!

He had to move out quickly!

Knock knock knock!

Suddenly, Xia En's door was knocked again!

“Who is it?”

Xia En immediately asked the person outside the door.

“Me, Tissia.”

“Tissia?”

Xia En opened the door, only seeing Tissia standing alone outside.

And the moment he opened the door, Tissia rushed in like an arrow, throwing Xia En heavily to the ground.

Her hands tightly grabbed his collar, and she asked, “Tell me, is that person in the VIP room… is she my mother?”
