Chapter 138: To Eltadra (3)

The grilled Megalodon was so delicious that they finished a whole monster that night. Emersyn stayed in the community kitchen to talk about more ways to cook shark meat. Nobody left in the process and Emersyn became troubled. So, she cut the meeting–or whatever it was called–and sent them home after shaking their hands. However… those housewives were… acting so strange when their hands connected. She just couldn't shake off that feeling.

After that strange event, she went to the most luxurious inn that the citizens prepared especially for Emersyn. Her feet took her to the highest floor and into the one and only room on the floor.

"My Lord," Draven greeted her as soon as she entered.

"What's the situation in the other continents?"

"Jiang Hao has successfully found another vein in Elbator. They are currently excavating the land in a careful order since it appeared to be a new mineral. Yao Chen found multiple good lands in Elcanaria to cultivate crops that we can't cultivate here. Han Zhao and his team went to Elcanaria and brought supplies for the cultivation of the new crops."

"Great job. Ask them whatever they want once their jobs are done."

"And here, my Lord," Draven said as he casually offered Emersyn a few documents awaiting her approval. Emersyn read it and nodded, satisfied with the new documents her people provided. She retrieved her stamp and approved the documents.

"Are there any progress in our Submarines?"

"Not yet, my Lord. They are currently studying the learning materials you gave them intensely. They wouldn't want to disappoint you, my Lord, when you have such great expectations of them."

"... did you tell them about it?"

"Of course," Draven proudly said.

Emersyn looked dumbfounded at her butler. She sighed as she slowly accepted the pride of this man before her.

"You have too much faith in me, Draven."

"Precisely, my Lord."

"Okay, get some rest."

"Understood," Draven said as he bowed and left Emersyn's room.

The female attendants that came with her suddenly flocked to her with their excited eyes. They were holding luxurious clothing specialized to give their Lord a peaceful and relaxing sleep.

"My Lord, let's wash you up!"

"Okay," Emersyn said as she entered the spacious bathroom.

She could bathe on her own, but these women were too eager to take care of her. Their skillful hands stripped Emersyn of her clothes and left her naked. The water was already warmed up and there were petals floating on the surface. Also, there seemed to be perfumed oil mixed into it. Emersyn became uncomfortable with being treated too nicely. Sure, she was the Emperor of this world and she had everything she needed. She could acquire the things that she fancied with her own money and means. However, she never had someone treat her closely like this, and be so attentive to the smallest details. Her life really changed when she became the Emperor of Elachron.

She started alone in her journey, but now, she had the whole world supporting her and believing in her. Without knowing it, she slowly acknowledged this new lifestyle of hers. It was uncomfortable at first, but when she looked closely, it wasn't that bad at all. Maybe, if she was thrown out without a home to return to, she didn't know what she would feel by then. Maybe she would experience that empty life of hers once again.

Emersyn didn't know that she was slowly craving the affection of these people. She had to be the strongest to protect these people and their love for her.

"My Lord, will you lie down?"

"What for, Amery?"

"Ack. You know my name?" Amery said with her voice quivering.

"... how can I not know when we traveled together?"

"Well, yes, that is true… but those people that I served when this world was still encased with ice, never really called me or bothered to know my name. Maybe it's just that employer of mine…. Anyway, enough about that, my Lord. You need to lie down."

"What for?"

"What for? We need to loosen up your muscles! You fought so hard today!"

"Yes, my Lord!"

"That's right!"

They all looked at each other and said in chorus, "Thank you for all the hard work today! We enjoyed your meals!"

"...." Emersyn blinked her eyes then lay down on the soft mattress.

"Okay, this will be the first time that our Lord is letting us touch her body, so we have to be very careful!"

"... you don't have to be that careful, Anyoung…," Emersyn groaned.

"So… we are allowed to apply more pressure on your pressure points? We would love to!"

"Yes! After all, we will be giving the maximum benefit of the massage to completely loosen up your muscles and have you relax in your sleep!"

"I am in your care," Emersyn surrendered. After a refreshing session of the intense massage of the girls, she fell asleep after giving her appreciation to those that worked hard to relax her body.

Morning came, and there was a commotion outside of the inn. Emersyn was being dressed as her face stiffened after hearing what Draven was saying.

"What do you mean that they want to shake hands with me?"

"My Lord… you don't know what effect it has when we make skin contact with you."

"... take those thoughts away from me, Draven."

"It's impudent of me to say this directly to you, my Lord, but that's the truth. It gave us so much pleasure to have direct contact with our Lord that gave birth to these powerful energies that are currently swirling around in this world! Even I long to touch a fingernail of yours, my Lord!"

"...."

"We have to agree, my Lord."

Anyoung, Amery, Ciste, and Ling Ling all agreed.

"That is why we decided to give you a massage last night," Anyoung giggled.

".... excuse me, what?"

"The housewives get to shake your hands, my Lord…. How about us, your close associates?"

"After this, I don't know if I can mingle with people anymore."

"Oh, my Lord, you're such a silly!"

"Okay, I'll meet them all," Emersyn nodded and went down the stairs with her entourage in tow.

When she arrived outside the inn, the children were the first ones to greet her.

"Good morning, my Lord!"

"Good morning," Emersyn smiled as she crouched down. "How are you all morning so far?"

"It's great, my Lord!"

"Is it true that I can shake hands with you, my Lord?!"

"Let's see… did you do every chore your parents asked for you?"

"Yes!"

"Understood, then," Emersyn offered her hands and the children clambered to touch them. Once their turns were done, they excitedly told their parents while protecting their hands that touched Emersyn. After that, it would be the adults' turn. Of course, before they ask for Emersyn's handshake, they offered their own hard work.

***

One month passed after that incident. Emersyn received a letter that the architects in the Land of the Emperor successfully made the first prototype of the submarine. They sent the blueprints to her as she examined them. Emersyn was amazed that they could make a high-class submarine with only a few books to study. Then, she received that the excavated ore that they called Aemerium would be the one they would use for the exoskeleton of the submarine and for the hulls. The tempered Aemerium was so strong that it could withstand a lot of pressurized energy. It was apparently the strongest metal found in this world, yet.

"My Lord, Sir Elodiaren has arrived along with the others and the supplies we'll be needing to build the second prototype of the submarine."

Emersyn was currently reading a book before the sea when Draven approached. She closed her book and stored it in her bracelet, then said, "Guide me."

"Yes!"

"My Lady!"

Emersyn sighed once she heard that energetic voice.

"It's been so long!"

"No, the last time we met was three months ago. That isn't long."

"That is incredibly long for me, you know? Do you know how long I have waited so that I could go here officially?"

"Probably more than a month."

"Precisely! You know me so well, my Lady…," Elodiaren crept up to Emersyn and hugged her. "I really missed you."

"Yes. Then, it's been a long time, Aren. I didn't miss you."

"How cruel…."

"Your presence is always here, you know? Draven kept giving me sweets that you baked."

Elodiaren was touched that Emersyn recognized the sweets that he baked. He smiled so sweetly and kissed her cheeks. Emersyn apparently didn't mind his advances now as she rolled her eyes back but didn't avoid his affection. That made his heart burst in warmth that he couldn't hold it in anymore. However, if he kissed her lips now, surely, her heart would distance itself away from him. He had to be very patient, or else... He didn't even want to imagine it. But… if her heart really distanced itself away from him, then he wouldn't mind courting her all over again and atone for what his impatience had done to her.

"Are you done?" Emersyn impatiently asked.

"Yes. Wait, one more."

"Get away from me," she groaned and gently pushed him back. "Where are the others?"

"They are preparing to assemble the submarine. Oh, and my Lady?"

"What?"

"This submarine series is called the Emperor Series."
