Lucky 293
Esmeralda snuggled close to Calix. The warmth of the man beside her made her feel safe. She had not felt that way for a long time. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she realized that she was not in the office room. She looked around and found herself in the middle of nowhere.
The vast grassland stretched endlessly, and she could not see the end of it. She knew this place because she had been here before.
"Bitch I'm Stylish Glock tucked Big Tee Shirt Billie Eilish!"
She heard strumming and turned around. She found a beautiful woman sitting on the grass, strumming a ukelele. She was singing a certain song...
"Oracle."
The woman had long ears and blue hair. The most striking thing about her was her two different colored pupils. She also had this elegant and divine aria around her.
"Yow! Wazzup Princess of the Dark Elves!"
"..."
Esmeralda did not answer.
Her appearance right now was different than usual. Just like the Oracle, she had long ears.
"How long has it been? I think we met a thousand years ago, maybe more. I'm sorry, time is confusing here."
Oracle stopped playing.
"So did you meet him?"
"You're a big fraud."
"What do you mean? It's not my fault that you fell in love with someone and thought he was your mate!"
"But you didn't tell me that he's actually a thousand years younger than me.
"Hihi!"
The blue-haired woman giggled and Esmeralda frowned.
Because of the oracle she received from this woman, she thought her husband was her destined partner. She married him and had children, only to realize that she had made a mistake. But it was too late, for the kingdom was crumbling.
Perhaps Esmeralda was the only one who survived the invasion.
"Hey, don't look at me like that. It's not my fault. Besides, I did not lie, I keep my promise. Now you met him."
"A thousand years! I lost everything! My family! My children! And my kingdom..."
For the first time, sadness showed in her eyes as tears blurred her vision. The proud and powerful Vice President of Dellia sobbed before the Oracle.
"You are wrong about one thing."
This time the Oracle gave her a knowing smile.
"One of your children survived."
"!!!"
Esmeralda was stunned and her eyes were shaking. Her legs lost their strength. She crawled and reached the Oracle. She was a desperate mother who wanted to see her child.
"T-tell me! Where is my child?"
The Oracle frowned as Esmeralda spat saliva as she screamed at her.
"Calm down woman. You need to calm the hell down. I'm here to help you."
Oracle sighed. The last time she met Esmeralda, she was a young dark elf who didn't know anything about the world. She told Esmeralda that she would meet someone who would save her from despair. The man would appear in her life by killing a Demon-God.
Her husband was a powerful elf who had killed a Demon-God, and Esmeralda thought he was the one.
Now Esmeralda was completely different, she looked like she had lost everything.
"We High Elves are always close to nature..."
Oracle muttered. She had the power to see the 'glimpse of the future' because she was from the High Elves of Fate.
As for Esmeralda, she was from the line of Darkness. The High Elves who could control the darkness.
The blue-haired elf patted Esmeralda on the head and she stopped sobbing. The oracle wiped away her tears and looked at her tenderly.
"Everything will be all right after this. You will have your revenge."
Esmeralda was spellbound and nodded.
"Well, one of your children survived the invasion. She became a slave in their kingdom."
Hearing this, Esmeralda's face turned ugly. She realized that her child was being used by filthy humans.
'Junian! I promise to destroy your land!'
The kingdom their ancestors had built was taken over by the mortals, who attacked them in the midst of war against the Aberrants. They were betrayed by the weaker beings and lost everything.
Esmeralda was forced into hibernation and awoke only 300 years ago when the Elven kingdom was already gone and the elves had disappeared.
She found only a few elves, but their will to live vanished after seeing how the mortals and Aberrants destroyed the world, they slowly disappeared and accepted that their era was over.
This was the era of humans. Demihumans was nothing more than a blip in history.
Now, only Esmeralda was determined to take revenge on the humans who had enslaved her brethren.
"My child..."
"That's right, Toshi Densetsu is alive."
"I see..."
She closed her eyes and a tear rolled down. Toshi, her youngest daughter.
When the mortals invaded the kingdom, Toshi was only 2 years old. She was nothing but an innocent and sweet child.
Hearing that Toshi had become a slave at such a young age broke her heart.
Esmeralda cried loudly as she let out her frustration. She hugged Oracle and Oracle comforted her.
"What must I do?"
Esmeralda asked. She knew the Oracle would not talk to her for a simple reason like that.
The blue-haired woman nodded and strummed her ukelele.
"Your partner, Calix Romoel, will save her. He is the only one who can."
"What do you mean?"
Esmeralda was confused as she sniffed.
"Just like you, Toshi seems to have inherited the power of the High Elves. She can revive the dead."
"..."
Esmeralda looked at her in shock.
"She is a High Elf of Death."
Esmeralda bit her lip.
"I'll talk to Calix."
She had no choice. She could only trust Calix and the Oracle.
She looked at the woman holding her ukelele.
"Hey... Don't look at me like that. Like I said, it's your fault for thinking your husband is your destined mate."
Esmeralda just wiped away her tears.
"Looks like it's time for you to go."
"Thank you, Joe."
She murmured the ancient name of the Oracle. Maybe she was the only one who knew it.
"Be safe. By the way, be prepared, someone will show up on election day."
"I will."
Joe Mama could see that Esmeralda was upset and heartbroken, so she did not linger.
The endless plain began to crumble until Joe Mama disappeared.
Esmeralda gasped and sat up. She gasped as she looked around. She was back in the office. She looked beside her and noticed that Calix was not there.
"Morning."
Then the door opened and Esmeralda found Calix holding a tray of food. A couple of French toasts and two coffees.
Her lips curled at the knowledge that someone was there for her.
