CHAPTER 9 ZELIA was already at the Emperor's Room, and while waiting for him, she went to his bookshelves and get something interesting book to read. She was sitting on the couch while reading the book. "Why did the Emperor tell me to get here?"Zelia said to herself since she can't really focus to what she's reading. Her attention was divert to something and she can't relaxed. She's bothered. "Because I'm here to ask if you already remember my name."The Emperor said making her look at his direction, he's already inside of the room. She's to focused on something that she already forgot that she's in the room of the Emperor. "Nope. I still can't remember it. Why not tell me?"Zelia said while she closed the book that she can't finish reading because she's focusing on something. The Emperor chuckled—his expressionless was starting to fall of, "Not telling you, you must remember it on your own." Zelia sigh, "Okay if you say so. So what am I gonna do in your room? It's so boring here." "Hmm... you're bored?"He asked and Zelia nodded her head. "Then what if we will go out of town, I've heard that they will be having a feast tonight."The Emperor suggested making Zelia's eyes sparkle. Ever since she was here, she hardly can't experience what happiness is. "Yes. We must go!"Zelia said making him chuckled—totally different when he's outside. "Yes. But the Festival will start at six in the evening and it is still morning so we will gonna wait until it's night time."The Emperor said making het pout. "So, what am I gonna do here?" "Take a nap?" She snorted, "What if I'm gonna go outside and help the other servant? I still want to talk to Ysa."She said and The Emperor went to her direction and sat beside her. "What would you two talk about?"He asked making her chuckled. "Wow, I didn't know that the Emperor love gossips."Zelia teased him. "I'm not. I'm just curious."He defend his self making Zelia laugh. "Nothing much really. We will just gonna talk about that Physician."Zelia said making the Emperor frown. "You mean, Zen? And why?"He asked while looking at her intently. She chuckled, "Hmm... so Zen is his name." The Emperor's face is much much way dangerous than before thinking of how to kill Zen through his mind. "Why? Do you like him?"His breathing are heavier than before. She smiled and shook her head, "Ysa like him. She's starting to fall for him and I don't really like him for Ysa but if Ysa really love him then I can only support them both but if he dares to make her cry, I'm gonna punch him until he dies."She was still smiling while bad mouthing the Physician. The Emperor's let a sigh in relief, " You're really close to that woman—I mean Ysa." "Yup. She insisted to be my younger sister since I always saw my younger brother at her."She said making the Emperor's brow wrinkled. "What do you mean by that? You have a younger brother? How come?"He asked. "Yeah, I have a younger brother but we are half. I mean, he's my half brother but I'be always treated him like he is my own brother, he's also smart and always do something to make the burden which I always carry on my own, feel light. He can differentiate my moods, like if I'm irritated, I'm mad, hungry or so whatever it is. I'm so lucky to have a younger brother like him."She said while smiling, reminiscing the past. "Where is your brother now?"The Emperor asked. Zelia look at him, "He's from far far away that even I can't reach. Our last meeting was kinda sad but it's okay, atleast I know that he's safe from somewhere so I can rest assured that he won't get hurt."She said while smiling at him. The Emperor was just looking at her and listening closely at what she said. "Do you have a brother or a sister, Your Majesty?"She asked him and he nodded his head. "Yeah, an older brother."He said while his face turn to sour while remembering the past, his sour face makes Zelia chuckled and understand what's going on between them. "You're both in good terms but he's hard to deal with since he get cocky and an ass, right?"Zelia was laughing. "Yeah. He is a cocky brat older brother."He said while looking at Zelia's face who was smiling with happiness. He can't also help but to feel secure with her smile. He wanted to smile but he stop his self from doing so, he must maintain his expressionless face as possible but ever since Zelia comes to his life, his emotionless face starts to fall of. "So, what is he like? Is he also like you, an Emperor?"Zelia asked and he nodded. "Yeah, he's also an Emperor from Slay Clan. Actually we have five clan as that is Claw Clan, Slay Clan, River Clan, Dragon Clan and lastly the Drain Clan. My Brother is on the Slay Clan. Ever clan has their every Emperor and once a month, we, all the Emperor would hold a meeting were all the Emperor would gather."He said making her nodded her head. "Wow. What if there's a traitor in a Clan?"Zelia asked. "Eliminate it. Since our nation is called RavenClaw which holds five clan, and the other nation has also five clan. The reason why we, Emperor's gather every month is to discuss and to check each other's health and people."He said. "So, you're saying in that way, you would observed the other people in other clan to prevent some spy's and other?"Zelia asked and he nodded, "Yes. We don't know when or where the enemy would strike that's why we must be ready when the time comes." "Oh... that sounds complicated."She said. 'Totally different from the modern world where there is no war but there is a lot of enemies.' "I know." "Being an Emperor must be tough."She said. "Yeah." "I'm so bored."Zelia said making him chuckled. "You're still bored from talking to me?" "Yeah. I'm not really into war's and I also find history a little boring so I'm not interested in something like that."She said nonchalantly making him chuckled. "Then, what if I'm gonna tour you some other good places here in Claw Clan?"He asked making her eyes glitters in delight. "Yes!"She immediately answered making him chuckle. "Okay but, I must also change my outfit so that other's won't recognize me. You don't want to b the talk of the town, right?"He asked and she nodded her head. "That's good. So, find me a good dress in my closet and dress me."He commanded making her chuckled. "Don't get to cocky, Your Majesty. But since you're gonna tour me today, I won't mind helping you dress up."She said as she stand up and went to the closet. She opened it and find something a good outfit that would suit to His Majesty taste. She get the red big robe and she uses her skills to form another dress out of the robe. When she's done, she hand it to the Emperor. The Emperor seems shock at her skills. "As for my thanks."She said as she starts undressing him. Seeing him naked isn't embarrassing for her since she's already used to it. She's always the one who undress him and dress him up.  She get the polo shirt which has a lot of buttons on the middle of the shirt, she started buttoning it. The the next is the formal red pants which she used out of the fabric of the robe. When she's done, she smiled and give him a thumbs up.  "In that way, no one's gonna recognize you. But first, you must wear a mask."She said as she handed the red mask where she found in his closet. He accept it and wear it. It was a half mast that covers only his eyes and the upper of his nose. "You still look handsome even wearing mask. And you look good in whole all red."Zelia compliment him. "I know."He said making her laugh. "Too cocky."She said as she change her outfit to a simple turtle neck and jeans. They are all color grey. "Do you really love the color grey?"He asked and she nodded her head, "Is it too obvious?"She was laughing. He nodded his head, "Yeah it is." "So as you, who like the color red."She said. "Let's go."She said and she get her small pouch and put it on her pocket. She open the gold door easy like it was just a normal one, and they both went out. They're like a ninja that you always see on the TV shows which is fast and professional in jumping. So they used the their skills to jump all the way on top of the palace.  But Unluckily, one of the Emperor's guard caught them, "Your Majesty, were are you going, dressing like that?" "Oh, you can guess it's me?"The Emperor said. "Your Majesty, I've been guarding you since you were announced as an Emperor so it's normal for me to easily guess it's you."The man said while bowing his head. "I'm just going out to tour Zelia."He said. "But it's dangerous, Your Majesty."He said. "Okay, then call Mae and you two will guard us from a far if that can make you rest assured."The Emperor said. "Yes, Your Majesty."He said as he climbed down the palace, like in just a blink, he's already in the palace. "Wow. He's fast."Zelia can't help but to feel amused, it's like she saw a real ninja. His Majesty didn't say anything but he just tsked at her compliment. 'I"m gonna ask Raves to teach me how to became like him later.' END OF CHAPTER 9
