-playlist chapter: The Plan by Travis Scott
...
Empress Lica smiled widely when she saw the package containing the dress being opened by Elle. Empress Lica's eyes sparkled with joy like an explorer had found a pure spring that was nearly extinct.
Instantly Empress Lica got up from her seat and walked over quickly. Empress Lica's hands trembled with joy.
"Waiter, how can such a beautiful dress captivate all my senses?" Empress Lica sighed with joy.
A pink dress like the color of cherry blossoms from silk with a few dots of ruby which is also pink entwined very beautifully in a dress. On the shoulders, there is a white tile popping up five centimeters to form the shoulders. Makes the wearer look elegant.
Of course, physically Empress Lica was one of the most beautiful women in the Solar Galactic Empire. Her white face with naturally straight and long black hair would make anyone turn to stare as Empress Lica walked around the crowd.
"This is the work of the maestro of Doctor Elliot's friend who passed away a few days ago. The Empress is the only woman from the Solar Galactic Empire who is worthy to wear it. Please give it a try." said Elle softly.
At that moment, Elle had to hide her bitterness at the mention of Elliot's name. Her late husband died in tragic circumstances and until now Elle does not know what caused his death.
"So true. Too bad Doctor Elliot had to die a horrific death. If only Doctor Elliot knew enough and continued to follow the instructions of His Majesty Emperor Paddu maybe his life could still be saved. Fate is unpredictable." Empress Lica commented without feeling sad about the dead.
It was as if death or multiple deaths due to the cruelty of the special forces ordered by Emperor Paddu was something very ordinary. Something like talking about the weather or the zodiac forecast!
Elle wanted to cry in her heart but couldn't. There are more important tasks waiting for him to be done soon.
"Would Her Highness the Empress try on this dress right now?" asked Elle respectfully.
Of course, Empress Lica's eyes sparkled even more.
"How could I not want to?" Empress Lica giggled with one hand covering her mouth as a natural reflex.
Hearing Empress Lica's answer made Elle immediately spread the super beautiful dress in her hand on a nearby plain mannequin for Empress Lica to see clearly. After that, Elle took out another scroll containing the underwear of the beautiful dress.
"The Empress can put on this underwear first," said Elle softly and respectfully.
In contrast to him who was sad remembering Elliot and Ellisa. Elle should be able to put her personal feelings aside in this task. Otherwise, Elle might end up in a self-destruct phase.
"Of course." Empress Lica replied immediately and left for the dressing room.
After Empress Lica's death, the two maids who did nothing walked towards Elle with a look full of amazement at the dress attached to a mannequin belonging to the empress collection.
They prepared everything for Empress Lica to put on then followed behind to the dressing room. Elle maintained her composure while the corner of her eye continued to scan the large room.
Elle's main purpose in coming to Empress Lica's Palace was to find the second Black Pearl.
Inside Elle's head.
"I will look for the Second Black Pearl while you should be able to gain the Empress' trust and look for loopholes while they are off guard." Etter's orders were firm.
"Of course. I will gladly do it." Elle replied excitedly.
For some inexplicable reason, Elle became excited when the Elder Prince put her trust in him without needing an explanation. Elle felt that the Elder Prince was not a bad person. Prince Elder is just a victim of Emperor Paddu's dictatorship.
"In every human history, there have been individuals who have had too great a desire to be a supremacist who wants to rule the universe. And for Emperor Paddu, being an emperor in a galaxy was not enough to satisfy the terrible desire he had.
Then, you think Emperor Paddu can act alone all this time. No, of course not. Emperor Paddu had some allies far more terrifying than humans. Allied with the unseen creature is far more cursed than all the atrocities that have ever been committed.
In time, when the invisible being was dissatisfied with Emperor Paddu's behavior then the days when the Solar Galactic Empire was destroyed were nothing left. I came to prevent that from happening. However, my mission will not be successful if there are no humans I want to work with. For that, your role is very important, Elle. It's all up to you now." Etter said giving a lecture.
Elle nodded. Now Elle understood that all of this was possible and made sense. If Elle is not chosen at random. Although Elle didn't know if she could carry out all of Etter's orders or not. All Elle could do was work hard for it.
To be able to resurrect Elliot or Ellisa someday.
...
While Elle with Etter rocks was scanning the entire palace, Empress Lica had already come out in a pink dress that dazzled every eye that looked. Empress Lica's aura of beauty radiated even more without allowing other figures to intervene in her presence.
"In any case, I swear that Her Majesty the Empress is very beautiful in this dress. It seems right that this dress was made only for Her Highness the Empress." Elle said praising.
"This servant Nine is right, Her Highness Empress Lica." Added one of the maids closest to Empress Lica.
Within the Main Palace environment, Elle was known by the name of servant Nine. Referring to the registration number which is numbered 99. However, what does Elle care about names? For the whole world, Elleta Ido is dead, swept away by the swift current of the river and her body is nowhere to be found.
Just like Elle's parents who disappeared without a trace.
"You, servant Nine. Can you stay in my Palace?" asked Empress Lica with a wide smile.
