Chapter 300 Growing Five Empires (4)
"We are unworthy of such grace but will gladly accept whatever you grant us," She replies and could practically feel the power radiating from her.
She's strong… No, all my maids are much stronger than most of the warriors in my empire.
"Good, now all of you are dismissed. I need peace and quiet,"
"As you wish," My maids all reply before leaving the throne room.
Once everything had fallen silent, the woman across my lap began to squirm, and I saw something wet drip down from her thighs.
SLAP
I slapped her ass again, causing the sock to fall out of her mouth, a string of drool following it as it rolled next to me.
"T-thank you, Mistress," She mutters before rubbing her face against my thighs again.
"Are you wet, you fucking masochist?"
"Y-yes, Mistress… I deserve to be punished," She mutters, and I swear I saw hearts appear in the center of her pupils.
She glanced up at me, panting like a bitch in heat once again.
"You're staying here until I say you can go,"
"A-as you wish,"
…
I stayed up until late at night to finish my daily work but teasing the empress of the empire of shadows was pretty fun.
But, I wasn't done with her yet as I was having a lot of fun with her.
"Anyway, where is that woman, her student that you enslaved?" I asked Aika as we had breakfast early in the morning.
"Oh… I've been… Training them…" She responds, her calm expression warping into that of a sadistic one.
Yeah… I don't fuck with people like her… But she still somehow ended up being my wife.
"Don't act like you're different from me. I saw what you were doing with that woman last night," Aika responds as she takes a bite out of the toast.
"I was training her as well," I respond, and one of my maids comes up to me.
"Mistress, the guests are getting impatient,"
I glanced at her blankly, and she smiled before walking off.
A crash suddenly came from the hallway, and I knew my maids understood my intentions perfectly.
"Today, I have a check-up day on all the empires. The maids are also on a break after breakfast, so make sure to hold down the fort. We aren't accepting any guests or visitors. If it is urgent, listen to them," I say before using [Map of The Plane of Twilight].
A map of crumpled paper unfolded before me, revealing all of my empires and the significant landmarks across my plane.
I then touched the first empire… The Empire of Glaciers.
But just as I was about to use [Plane Guardians Teleportation], I heard somebody call out to me.
"M-Mistress, can you please take me with you?" Lon runs up to me, and I just roll my eyes before grabbing her shoulder and pulling her into my chest.
She just barely managed to suppress her perverted expression as my wives were present.
But, I could still kind of feel their bloodlust licking the back of my neck and especially Lon as she was shivering in fear.
[Plane Guardians Teleportation]
I blinked once, and upon reopening my eyes, I appeared in a throne room grander than mine.
It was made of quartz pillars, marble floors and scattered with thousands of blue and white gems that seemed even to encrust the air itself.
"Mistress, I have been awaiting your arrival," I hear Hoka from behind me, but I don't look back as I sit on the large throne before me.
"Come on. You know what to do. I want to do this in one day, so hurry up," I say as Lon sits on her knees next to me, but just as she was about to lie on my thighs, I pushed her forehead.
"Of course. The progress over the past few days have slowed down, but that is because we have already hit our peak, and it is dwindling down,"
"Good, that's a given. And how is the trading?"
"It is… There are some problems, but I can fix them quickly. There's just been a problem with a rise in bandits that attack the caravans delivering the goods to and from each empire,"
"Make sure that gets solved quickly because the one downside to this project of assigning certain things to each empire… is that if one empire begins to dwindle, so will the others,"
"Was that on purpose?" Hoka asks.
"Of course it was,"
"So you were planning to have us cooperate since the beginning, whether we like it or not?"
My eyes locked onto her, causing her to shrink back.
"Forgive me. I stepped out of line,"
"*sigh*... Show me your empire," I say, getting up and Lon following right behind me like a parasite stuck in my intestines.
"As you wish," Hoka responds as she leads me out of her massive palace.
"What do you even do with such a large palace?"
"I used to house guests here from all the other kingdoms and empires… but I guess it's not needed as much anymore,"
"Are you trying to make me feel bad?"
"Of course not. I just replied to your question, Mistress,"
She was clearly trying to get cheap shots in, but I completely ignored her as I didn't feel like wasting my energy on punishing her.
Soon, we arrived in the empire, which looked like a mix between modern society on earth and medieval times on earth.
There seemed to be no slums which was good, and no houses were bigger than the other unless they were nobility.
"Mistress, may I ask why Lon is following you?"
"She is my attendant today. Do you have a problem with it?"
"O-of course not," She replies, but I could sense a hint of jealousy within her expression.
When did these girls get so attached to me… and when did they get so confident around me?
My hatred for humans had quelled quite a bit because I was hanging out with Reyna quite a lot, even when I was working.
"Oh, but do you even know what I've been asking her to do?"
A wave of emotions crossed her face.
First, confusion, then annoyance, and finally, she was flustered as her soft white cheeks began to blush.
"Oh, would you like a taste as well?"
"P-please do not tease me, Mistress,"
I chuckled a bit as we continued our way down the neatly set-together street which was made from stones that created chess board-like patterns.
"This wasn't here before,"
"Yes, it was just added a few days ago. It is made from the roughest rocks we could find because, after a bit of experimentation, we found that the horses could run and navigate the fastest on rough rocks. Slippery and smooth ones just made them slip,"
"I see… Well, you've done a good job… I don't see many problems besides the strangely high homeless percentage,"
"F-forgive me for the rude comment I am about to make, but it is due to Mistress's ruling. This is their form of protest, but if you wish me to kill them, I will do it without hesitation," Hoka replies, her eyes filled to the brim with determination.
"It's fine. I wouldn't want to slow the progress anyway," I muttered, and for the rest of the day, she showed me her entire empire, which was about five times bigger than the one surrounding the Mountain of Twilight: The Monster Empire.
It was usually impossible to do this, but with our high speed, we managed to just about clear everything by the time the moon hit the center of the sky, signaling midnight.
"Honey, where were you?" The emperor asked as soon as we entered the palace.
But upon seeing me in front of her, he rolled his eyes.
"What do you want? We've done everything you've asked to do… Is there anything else?" He asks sarcastically.
"Tell me, how is the relationship between you and the other emperors?" I respond, ignoring his apparent taunt.
We also made our way into the throne room, where I eyed the massive throne made of sparkling blue and white gems.
"It has improved,"
"By how much exactly?"
"... Not much, but it is slowly improving," He responds as I sit on the throne where the emperor was supposed to sit.
There were two thrones, one bigger and one smaller.
The bigger one was meant for the emperor, and the smaller one was meant for the empress.
"Mistress, I believe it is due to their useless pride," Hoka speaks up as Lon kneels next to me once again.
"Get me some fruit. I'm hungry,"
Lon heeds my order and immediately dashes off to the kitchen, which the location was informed by Hoka.
"Honey, who's side are you on?"
"I am just speaking the truth. We can progress much further if you just set aside that useless pride,"
"Hoka, come here," I order.
She walks over to me and kneel's on two knees in front of me.
This time I kept my knees bent against the bottom of the throne as I wanted to try something.
I wonder what would happen if the emperor saw his beloved wife worshipping another woman.
"Is there anything you want, Hoka?"
"W-want?"
"Yes,"
"I can really ask for something?"
"Yes, you can… But you have to earn it. You can always ask for something, and I'll give it to you as long as it is reasonable, and you earn it for yourself," I say with a sadistic smile.
She shivers before lowering her head.
