Martial Cultivator Transmigrates To The Future ABO - Chapter 157
Themis and Emery talked a little more about some points in the future, of course, Themis would have to monitor as the future could change at any time.
“Brother, are you sure you’re getting married?” Themis suddenly asked Emery.
“I don’t want to give Ade to anyone else, if I don’t marry him what am I supposed to do? Kidnapping him?” Emery said it as a joke, but he could see the glint of approval in his sister’s eyes.
“I can’t kidnap him Themis, he wouldn’t survive where we live.” Emery quickly denied her sister’s hopeful expectation.
“We can help him acquire divinity, that would be even better as he wouldn’t die easily, thus avoiding what happened in the other universe with his lover… Speaking of which, do you want to know the news about him?”
That person is Emery’s former lover who was apparently nearly soul-destroyed and who was trying to bring the person back to life with the help of the High Elves.
Emery was silent for a long time and didn’t respond, he honestly cared about the other party, but when he thought of Ade, he couldn’t say he wanted to see anyone else.
His previous lover is the biggest reason Themis wants Ade to become a god, even if he were a little god, at least his soul would not be shattered by their enemies.
“Say it,” Emery said in a strangled voice, making Themis sigh.
“We can give it up and release that person’s fragment if you want”
“I’ll think about it, but tell me the news”
“The High Elves finally managed to put the soul fragment as a system, which is already a good step”
A system could be incorporated into a body, but that didn’t mean life, but it was something more promising.
Emery turned off the crystal ball and looked out the window overlooking the garden and the various buildings around the palace, he thought for a moment if his former lover came back to life completely, what would he do?
Ade who knew nothing of his omega’s state of mind arrived a little disturbed by his family dinner and his mother’s words sounded in his head like a corrupted system showing the same data over and over again.
Seeing his stunned companion looking out the window, Ade went to the man and hugged him, the natural scent of the emperor’s warm skin surrounding Emery’s body and rousing him to the embrace he ended up receiving.
“How was dinner with the family?” Emery asked returning the hug and putting his face in Ade’s neck, he inhaled a little more of the strong pheromone that seemed to chase away all complicated thoughts.
Emery wasn’t going to grieve for something that hadn’t even happened yet, he didn’t even know if the High Elves would succeed in bringing that person back.
“It was weird and complicated” Ade replied also reassuring himself when he felt Emery’s warmth in his embrace.
Ade told what happened at dinner and his impressions on the matter, Emery listened carefully and the two sat on the sofa that was near the window.
“Looks like my mother-in-law is hiding a big secret.” Emery also came to the conclusion that Ade had arrived.
Of course, Emery omitted the fact that the big secret could be the behind-the-scenes people who cast the curse and who were trying to take the current emperor’s life.
“And the investigation into the shadow I captured, is there any result?” Emery asked after a while of silence, there was a lot to be investigated in the last few days, so the shadow investigation could have been delayed.
“It’s still under analysis”
“Ade, are your food tested for poison?” Emery asked suddenly. The question was very strange and surprised the emperor.
“Not necessarily, just when I left my palace. I trust the people of the palace and I have immunity to most deadly poisons”
In Emery’s mind, he could already rule out that what the maid that day was going to give wasn’t poison, at least not mortal-grade poison, it could be something akin to shadows, like a pestilence. Another thing that could be is some kind of worm or insect that could contain some kind of dangerous toxicity.
Emery thought that tomorrow would be a good day to visit Mu Liang and they would interrogate the maid, who was now in a suspended sleep within the cube of time and space he had created.
The quicker they know who they’re dealing with or what they’re dealing with, the faster Emery could hunt down the wretch who dared play with him.
“You look tired, want some sleep?” Emery said stroking Ade’s face, the ebony skin that is always glowing in health was pale and his expression was a little weird.
“Let’s sleep together so I just want to hold you for a while”
“Alright, can you go tell me about the morning meeting, was everything really bad, or was there a twist?”
The two undressed and only wore thin u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.r, feeling each other’s warmth they hugged and Ade talked about the morning meeting, but he didn’t seem very excited.
“Ade, is there something you are hiding from me?” Emery asked seeing the alpha’s face was still a little pale.
“My mother told me that I should ignore everything to make you empress. I feel that if I do this now, I will put an even bigger target on you… Things are so out of control, that I fear many have seen their lives.”
Finally, Ade opened his heart to pour out his worries, if it was months before, he wouldn’t hesitate to put Emery as empress even if everyone was against it… Well, months ago he didn’t imagine there would be an omega for himself.
However, with the terrorist attack, mysterious enemies who used strange and dangerous tactics to infiltrate the palace, the betrayal of Concubine Jang, the mind-controlling worms, the Mechas’ plans falling into the enemy’s hands… It all did. Ade becomes more cautious and more fearful of how disturbing the days have been.
“Ade, I won’t break. Part of me is a dragon, I doubt there’s anyone stronger than me in the Diablo Empire.” Emery said confidently, but it sounded like he was being arrogant to Ade.
“If enemies played fair, I wouldn’t be so afraid of you getting hurt,” Ade said with a sigh. Emery who is a titan could not understand the ephemerality of life and the constant worry of those who are not immortal worrying about their loved ones.
“They might not play fair, but Ade they don’t know what I’m capable of either,” Emery said without much concern.
The truth is, Emery hasn’t done anything radical so far because he didn’t want to scare all these mortals, plus he didn’t want to draw attention to himself and give his father Uranus a chance to escape.
“We’re going to hold our engagement after Mu Liang’s engagement, as the alliance between the empires is much more important right now,” Emery said before Ade could say anything.
“Emery…”
“Let’s worry about one thing at a time,” Emery said after kissing the emperor’s lips cutting off the other’s sentence.
Ade finally took Emery’s advice, he was mentally exhausted, so he slept very quickly, hoping tomorrow would be better.
Too bad it wasn’t better!
The news of his uncle having disappeared after a fire at one of the space station’s inns didn’t make the day any better for Ade, just one more headache was added.
The second headache of the day is that the second prince Mu had also disappeared, the searches were started in secret, Ade could feel an intergalactic crisis approaching.
On the other hand, Nehand was in the office in front of her were Phomello and Kashka.
“Your brothers are outside, won’t they attend Your Majesty?” Kashka asked after a long moment of silence when Nehand was deep in the day’s paperwork.
“Emperor Ade sent a message warning of Duke Achebe’s disappearance,” Phomello said as if to clarify what Nehand’s brothers were doing outside the office.
“Look at this and tell my brothers that Ade should already be doing everything possible to find the older brother,” Nehand said, sharing the message given by Jabulani, Roho’s trusted butler.
When Phomello and Rashka read the message, they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, Duke Achebe seemed to want to play with his younger brothers.
“Are you going to send this to the emperor?” Phomello asked with a little pity for the emperor, who was a child he had seen grow up close.
“I already sent the message, since he’s going to do the investigation to find my brother, he should take the opportunity to investigate who wanted the life of a Duke of our nation so badly, don’t you think Phomello?”
Phomello could feel the ripples of Nehand’s mental powers, she seemed angry that there were people who would shamelessly attack her family.
