Overlord Empress - Chapter 58 ARRIVAL OF THE ROYAL CLAN MEMBERS PART 4

Dragonoid Race Lands, Capital City Kaiser

Dragonoid race is the powerful Militaristic Empire on this world, before the rise of the human Empire. Now they are both treated as powerful Empires. But apart from Military, it always lacked in Education, Economic and Entertainment fields. If not for the efforts of the current Empress Miya Light, the situation would have been even worse in the Empire. But it all changed with one person, Princess Astarte.

Dilong, the crown Prince was removed and sent into exile to a remote Island, while his son Zhulong, was officially announced as the Crown Prince. This also brought Princess Astarte, into limelight as his only daughter. After returning to Kaiser, she was brought to the family ancestral hall for the first time and was given the family name Bailong( White Dragon). But she insisted on keeping the name Astarte Pandeus, in memory of her late mother. Because of her stubbornness, they have to make few exceptions for her, but she must carry her family name Bailong during official ceremonies.

Couple of weeks after her kidnapping Incident, she was completely cured of the poison in her body, by Empress Ichika. She was also officially announced to the whole world, as the sole disciple of Empress Ichika. This further cemented her place as an influential member of the Royal family and strengthened the relations between Dragonoid and Human Empires.

After she was completely cured and when it was time for her cultivation, it was revealed that she has no particular affinity to any element, like the other Royal family members. Her Great grandfather Tianlong is known for his Lightning and her father Zhulong is Known for Fire element.

It was later revealed by Empress Ichika, that she has a Unique Chaos Bloodline. With proper cultivation of her Physique, she can neutralize all elemental attacks. So she ignored Elemental attacks and solely concentrated on Physical and Soul aspects of the cultivation. Because of the guidance from Ichika and her resources, she quickly became one of the promising members of the younger generation. While cultivating she also started her own company, Aira International Company.

As a reincarnated person, she has more than enough ideas from her past world, to make a fortune. But she clearly knew, that a company reputation can’t be built in a single day. So she started a systematic approach to this world. This world of cultivators is full of struggles and  lacked proper entertainments to them, apart from sparring in the arenas or watching the news.

She released a lot of Comedy Novels at first, which became an immediate hit among the crowd. After that she started to release all kinds of novels from different genres, gaining fans from old to young people. She earned enormous profits in this way. Soon, other companies started to copy her methods and released their own version of Novels. But before they could reap the success, she went a step further.

Using her influence as a Princess, she hired almost all the excellent painting artists in the Empire and released all kinds of Comics, Mangas and Manhuas. At first, the artists were only reluctant to work, because of her status. But soon, because of these Comics, they became a household name in the world. Before meeting the princess, some artists were not even acknowledged by their own families, but now they are like superstars. Ichika also shared a part of profits of their works, earning their respect, making them work hard and increasing the quality of their works. This further increased her fortune and cemented her place in the entertainment industry.

Later she hired Tailors and released all kinds of fashion designing clothing suitable to this cultivation world. Then she hired Blacksmiths and released wide variety of Ornaments and jewellery, which became immediate hit among ladies. After that she hired some low level Alchemists and released several beauty products, courtesy to Ichika who provided these recipes. She completely won over the female crowd with this move. Later it became normal for male crowd, to gift her products to their loved ones.

With every move, she made and with the success she gained, her every actions was closely observed by the media and her competitors. She didn’t make a move in any other fields for a long time and stabilized her already established businesses. Just when the whole world thought, that she ran out of ideas, she created a huge ripple by making a new move.

She recruited a large number of Male and Female cultivators secretly, through her connections, who are good at music, singing and acting. She spent a lot of time training them, until they reached her standards. She also hired songwriters and some well known dancers. Then she launched her own broadcasting channel.

For the first time, the whole world was shocked by her vision. Until today, the broadcasting channels are only used to report news, interviews, fights and gossips throughout the day. But her broadcasting channel, completely changed this pattern. Early morning time was dedicated to news, after that till noon, it was various Music videos, then followed by Variety shows, again news and Daily soap operas. With her move, she was easily able to occupy the bulk of the industry.

She even opened a school to train and recruit more people in this field, which became famous over the years. Every year, she also released various movies on her channel, there is no need for special effects in some parts because the actors in these movies are cultivators.

Later she started her restaurant chain Osteria Gourmet Kitchen. She partnered with Ichika on this one, as she was completely blown away by her cooking. After pestering Ichika for years, she was able to get her hands on cooking recipes. She immediately trained a lot of Chefs in these recipes.

Unlike most famous restaurants, which are known for their reputation and daily customers, her restaurant only focused on the quality. Because of increased number of customers, the Chefs will be easily tired and are hence forced to work in a hurry burry way. So she only allowed a certain number of customers each day, which allowed the Chefs to work in a steady manner for the whole day and maintain the quality of the dishes. Soon her restaurant became famous for its heavenly taste and rich quality of the dishes. After that, it became customary to make prior appointments to eat here. No matter your status, you are not allowed inside the restaurants without appointments.

With every business of her being successful, she invested a part of her profits in other companies shares and few small scale to mid scale industries.

On her Company turning 100 Million years old, she also officially started this world first beauty pageant. Until then, there was always a lot of debate about who is the most beautiful woman in this world. 1000’s of women registered for this competition. Almost all the eyes of the male crowd, were glued to this competition. But before the competition even began, Astarte announced that the first place was already given to Ichika, so the competition was only for the 2nd and 3rd spots.

No one argued on this, as everyone can tell that Empress Ichika is a beauty, even when her face is covered by the veil. The second place is won by Zhang Meili, the sect master of the Cloud Moon Sect, while the third place belonged to a mortal woman Zhu ji. Zhu Ji was immediately invited to join the Cloud Moon sect by Zhang Meili, there by increasing the number of beauties in her sect by one more. After that, it became tradition to hold beauty pageants separately for Mortals and Cultivators. It is held every year for Mortals and every million year for the cultivators.

She is easily the 2nd richest person in the world now. She is famous for her huge donations to various charity organisations. When questioned about her motive towards charities, she simply replied that ‘she wanted the world she is living in to look beautiful’.

The most happiest persons regarding her growth is Her Great Grandparents and her father. Because of her, a large portion of citizens found work and reduced the employment issue. It also tremendously increased the lifestyle of the citizens. The Royal family also cemented their place in the citizens heart.

Miya Light, even brought Astarte to various decisive meetings regarding the Empire future. Astarte completely stressed for the development of mortals, low level and mid level citizens of the Empire, as they occupy the major part of the Empire population. Taking page from Ichika, she invested large amounts of money in agriculture, health, education and small scale industries of the Empire. Because of her, there is a steady significant growth of the Empire every year. It also established her father’s status as Crown Prince even more.

Currently she is appointed as the Internal Affairs Minister and going through a huge pile of reports in her office, when her secretary Ruby entered the room.

“Hime Sama, intel from our spy in Sun Media Sect. Lord Kuro moved towards Greenwood city and according to Clark Moor, he is there to receive the Royal Family members of the Uchiha clan.”- Ruby

Astarte immediately stopped her work and started tapping her fingers on the armrest of her chair.

“Is this what Clark Moor personally confirmed?”- Astarte

“Yes Hime sama”- Ruby

“Huhuhuhu, I always knew, that Clark Moor is a perfect reporter material. His assumptions are always on target. Did you get anymore info, on these members?”- Astarte

“Yes. it is assumed that, they may be second generation members of the Royal family”- Ruby

“Excellent. Reward the spy and ordered him to zip his mouth. There are still some loyal followers of the destroyed 12 Major sects, waiting for an opportunity. They can’t harm Sensei( Ichika), but they can target her family. “- Astarte

“Yes Hime sama, I will make sure he doesn’t slip this info to outsiders”- Ruby

“We are about to participate in the event at Eden anyway. We will head out in 2 days time and make a stop in Greenwood city. Inform the officials in the Embassy to prepare our accommodations. I will personally go inform Emperor and Empress, regarding our security personnel.”- Astarte

“Yes Hime same”- Ruby

Ruby, quickly left the office at lightning speed. While Astarte went into her Otaku mode.

‘Huhuhu Ichika Sensei, do you think, you can hide the Uchiha members from me. Others may find it difficult, but with my Godly Anime Eyes, I can easily catch them, even before they entered the city.’

After that, she started to move towards the inner parts of the Royal palace, to meet her Great grandparents.
