Chapter 149

Lucky 149

"That dream again, huh."

Scarlett massaged her forehead. Lately, she was dreaming about that hazy tree. 

"A tree made of blood..."

She whispered. She didn't know why she kept dreaming of that. 

"Hm?"

Just as she was ready to stand up. She found that her phone received a text. 

When she read the text, her eyes trembled and the drowsiness immediately vanished. 

"Calix."

......

...

...

The Capitolium was getting covered with the darkness, the huge Flying Ship that had the size of 150 meters was hovering over the city. It was quite small compared to the overall size of the wide city of Capitolium. However, it didn't change the fact that once this Flying Ship crashed into the land, millions worth of property and thousands of people may die. 

Especially when the army was watching the current situation, and some stupid citizens were ogling at the sky even though the government was trying its best to evacuate them. It was too late to escape and some people were getting hysterical. 

But in the middle of this crisis, a gorgeous dark skin woman with a voluptuous body was nonchalantly sipping her tea. 

"Hm, I plan to make this country better, so if the capital is destroyed, then the economy of this country will be shattered."

The Capitolium was the center of business, the capital of the Dellia, one of the factors why the economy of their country was thriving. 

"Geez, I want to lay low, but I guess I have to show my greatness."

A dark skin woman was savoring her tea as she gazed at the sky over the window. She was in her office, reading some documents. With her grey fitted blazer that tried to cover her enormous bust, and skirt that hid her lovable smooth legs. 

"I can use this situation to win the election next year."

She snickered, it was not a bad plan. The current president was good but not the best. The guy had a brain but because he was in the secret battle against the Senate, the president couldn't exercise his power well. 

"Well, we are both DemiGod, but his power is not good for battle. He's more a support-type. Maybe that's why he easily gets the people's sympathy, he is earnest."

She smirked. The only reason why the current president won the election was that people idolized him so much. Because the president was indeed a good guy. 

"But being a good guy is not enough to control this country."

The black woman was Esmeralda Margaret, she was the current vice president of Dellia. Just like the current president, she won her position through voting… Although she has done something far deeper to win her position. 

She exudes elegance and maturity, some people may beg to milk her big breast. With her supple tighs and child-rearing waist, some old men would ogle just to get a glimpse of her beauty. Her pouty pink lips, green eyes, and shoulder-length black hair, truly beautiful woman. Despite being a 44-year-old(?) woman, she was attractive, so much attractive. 

Yet, despite that, she had a deeper identity than being the vice-president of Dellia. 

*Knock knock!!

Someone knocked on her office and she put down her tea. Her playfulness disappeared and she became mature and serious.

"Come in."

"Yes, Miss Vice President."

A sweating secretary came in. She was almost butchered by the Senate, but because of the President, the Senate was forced to agree.

"The Senate gave you the go signal to deal with the problem."

The secretary wiped her sweat. She was just a simple woman. Except for her capability to do different tasks, she was normal. 

"Seriously, those old farts are eating me and the President."

She sighed, she was quite happy, to be honest. She didn't have any ounce of sympathy for the President. The guy was too good and she couldn't handle good guys. 

However, she admitted that the President's persistence helped her this time. 

'Those old farts are afraid of me.'

Esmeralda was confident that she could stop the Flying Ship without a problem. Especially now that the sun was sinking down. 

The Senate didn't want Esmeralda to gain more momentum, if she successfully completed this mission, it was obvious that her position as the next President would be cemented. 

However, the President began doing his best to convince them. In the end, it took two days to convince them and the Flying Ship was already in the Capitolium. 

"In this country, despite being a democratic one, the Senate still holds the most power. And these Senators are corrupt. Oh, now that I think about it, the Clan Master of Francine was adamant to stop the terrorists this time. Apparently, his niece is in the Flying Ship, and it's unknown if she's still alive."

Marianne's uncle was part of the Senate, he was Senator though he was more on the neutral side, but he was active this time. This explains a lot. 

"Now, let's fix this problem before the people lose their trust in the government."

She cracked her knuckles and used the best way to leave the office-- by using the window. 

She bust open the window and left the place. Her secretary sighed, half frustrated and half relieved. 

"I guess I have to contact a construction company for this…"

She massaged her forehead. The Vice President was difficult to control. She was vicious to her enemies and angel to her friends. Her playfulness and ferocity were quite frightening. 

Esmeralda looked at the sky, it was already night. She grinned, with this, she could use her power without any restrictions. 

[Esmeralda Margaret]

[DemiGod]

Because she was a DemiGod, the concept of Term Attribute couldn't shackle her anymore. She could freely use her power without suffering from any backlash and needing to refuel. 

She raised her hand and the sky started turning pure black, the stars and moon were not visible anymore. With her power, she created a veil that covered the sky.

This was the reason why the Senate was afraid of her more than the current President, because Esmeralda was so powerful. She was famous in the Army for being the Goddess of Night, the Protector of Night, and the Demoness of Darkness. 

"… Now, let's stop that Flying Ship. Oh? It seems like it's going to crash."

She chuckled. She detected that the Flying Ship was descending and it was going to crash to the city 

"Hehe, now it's more fun."

She liked thrilling moments like this.

[New girl? Hm, what do you think?]
