Project Relife: 2x Isekai System - Chapter 108: fggg
It was hard. Hard enough that even Grand Elder was having a hard time to digest her decree completely. After spending some time in a blank zone, Grand Elder was the first one who snapped out of the daze and asked what she meant by that.
As long as he knew Sen was never, ever allowed to go out of the mansion without permission. And the same was applicable for the empress, too. Though she was nineteen and like a queen of the sage world, she was living under strict rules and restrictions.
No matter how he thought he was unable to understand how and when did they become lovers and jumped onto the cruise of relationships. Forget about the relationship he was wandering when did they even marry each other?
While such questions were creating chaos in Grand Elder’s minds, questions like this and questions like ‘How can an eleven year marry a nineteen year?’ was going on in the rest of the family member’s mind.
Though Aryan’s physical characteristics were somewhat similar to that of a nineteen to twenty-year-old kid after going through the transformations, legally he was an eleven-year-old by heart and mind. For his family members, at least.
Some words from the empress and this was the result that emerged out of it. Apart from Grand Elder and the rest of the family members, there were some other people who were still in a daze and were showing no sign to snap out of it.
The one who was most shocked out of them was Nagarin, followed by Aria, Nex, and at last, Lisa.
For Lisa rather than shocked, she was in fear. She was counting her every breath that she was breathing at that time.
First of all, she was the one who was monitoring Sen’s trial. Second, she was also the one who attacked Sen recklessly and was about to kill him, but thanks to Sen’s power, he survived.
These all won’t be much of a problem if Sen belonged to any normal family or any ordinary lower level rankings. But after listening to his introduction and listening to the empress’s decree, she was sure that they would sue her for sure.
Well, to sue her would be one of the lightest punishments for her. Eternal prisoner, or spending a day in the poison lake might be one of the punishments that she might get after offending one of the knights of the Yang empress, who also belonged to the Zenzeng family and who was decreed to be the empress’s husband.
Among all the members present there, Lisa was the only one who was getting drenched in sweat and was more afraid of her actions rather than being shocked there.
After Lisa, it was the research department head Nex’s turn. Like Lisa, Nex too was afraid of his actions. Because he had also contributed some points into Sen’s trial. First, even after getting told it’s a violation of rule he sent his magic crystal ball there, which was still fine to get him forgiveness.
But when the crystal ball exploded itself in the giant’s playing set and Sen fainted from the cry of the giant, he lost all his hope to get forgiveness and from the empress and save his life from the Zenzengs.
After Nex, it was Aria, who was most shocked about the sudden turns of events and from the royal decree of the empress. Some days ago she was the one who filled the form for Sen for attending the trial to visit the Sage Palace.
She was expecting some chaos all around the island after finding out they have already found the last knight of the Yang Emperor and he is on his way to the palace to meet the empress.
Like Grand Elder and the other Zenzeng had spent their entire life living around Sen, she had spent her entire life spending around Yui, her empress.
Never in her life, she had seen the empress and her best friend Yui talking with a male for long hours, except for work-related talk. She always distances herself from males and talks with them whenever needed, in time of urgency mostly, when her female retainers were busy in other works.
And when a girl like that, who was also her best friend, announced that she had a husband she was completely taken aback by that.
And lastly Nagarin, her day was already going bad, and listening to this news made her day the worst day ever in her life.
Firstly, she offended some random person and his family, later to find out it was a family head of the Zenzeng family, whose family members consisted of Knights of the Yang emperor. Secondly, not only offend, but she also tried to flaunt her position and power before such a person, and as a result, got taught a lesson by the Zenzeng family.
This was not enough for her, so when she barged into the empress’s chamber as she used to do, she found out the random boy he fought with and offended some hours ago is the empress’s husband!!
Not only the empress’s husband, but he was also a knight, and to add up more frustration he also belonged to the Zenzeng family.
In that chamber, some were shocked and taken aback by the news. Some were afraid and getting worried about their lives, and Nagisa was the one and only sole person who was shocked, taken aback, and getting worried about her life.
She had contributed to each and every event whose rewards were even worse than death.
She was swiping up her sweat and touching her neck again and again. God knows when it may roll on the floor.
Till then Grand Elder was pondering over something when she noticed the door of the chamber was open and Nagarin was listening to everything carefully she greeted her back and asked her to close the door from inside.
“Ah, Miss number one retainer of the Sage Empress. Here you are, please come inside and close the door.”
Nagarin touched and checked her neck again and entered the chamber after closing the doors.
Before the Grand Elder opened his mouth to say something else, Nagarin bowed down like she used to bow to the empress and paid her respect to the Zenzeng’s present there.
“I pay my respect to all the knights of the Yang Emperor and the members of the Zenzeng family.”
This time Grand Elder replied anything to her and instead let Anisa and Granny Kotori reply to her.
“Ara Ara~~ I think you have already learned your lesson miss number one retainer. What was your name again?” asked Granny Kotori.
Nagarin again checked her neck, whether it was in one piece or not then answered Granny Kotori’s question, “Yes, my name is Nagarin. Nagarin Xenxu.”
“Oh~~!!” intervened Anisa and asked her if she was completely healed or not.
Nagarin nodded and told her she was somehow completely healed and was just feeling some weakness in her body. The awkward talk between them would have continued if the empress hadn’t intervened and asked them all to leave the chamber.
Some hours ago Yui and Aryan were having some important talk when the Zenzengs, followed by Aria, Nex, and Lisa barged into the room asking why did she call Sen her husband.
The empress didn’t give them a straight answer and told “It was destined to be as it is.”
Now that they had had enough talk, she asked them all to leave her and Sen alone and let them have some time in privacy. Grand Elder and the rest of the people present there still wanted to dig into the matter and ask her some more questions, but seeing she was asking them to leave they didn’t persuade her anymore and left the chamber as soon as possible.
Now the chamber had only two people. One was Sen, and the second was the empress. Both of them were quiet and looking at each other to start. Seeing Aryan was mostly clueless on what’s happening and what’s going to happen, the empress broke the ice and started telling him about the facts about which he was still unaware.
“Sen, I mean Aryan. Can you recognize me? Who am I?”
Aryan was somewhat in confusion even then he mustered courage and answered something over which he had a hunch from the beginning, “You, are the Yui, my guardian from my old world~~” replied Aryan.
“Yes, absolutely right. And I am also the empress of two different worlds.”
Aryan, “…”
Now, this was something that went above his head. Being an empress in one world was more than enough.
“Now what does it mean to be the empress of two different worlds?” pondered Aryan.
“Hehehe, I know you have countless questions in your mind, and you want to find their answer as soon as possible, but before I tell them about you, let me do this first.”
