Tyrant Empress Dowager (5)

The show continues on, with the remaining five Concubines. For a moment the women looked at each other settled down a little bit after the first Concubine got amnesty.

Yan Cui was the next to pick, she slowly picked up the one of the cups, trembling. 'Amnesty'. She fainted after that.

Rachel did a light laugh. "Such a blessing, Concubine Yan has also been forgiven" Rachel waved her hand as the maidservants dragged Concubine Yan away. She had always meant for Concubine Zi and Yan to draw Amnesty, the two where the only ones who acted in self-defense and did have decent morals.

Concubine Feng feeling a bit more confident, picked up her cup, thinking the heavens where forgiving. Once she saw it she tried putting it back down when a guard pulled her back and a maidservant brought her token to Rachel.

"Concubine Feng such a shame, it seems fate cannot forgive you and you'll have to be punished" Hel walked back in and handed Rachel the women's scroll, which she read aloud. "My, you have done quite a lot in your short life." Concubine Feng was trying to say something, but her mouth was covered, she was most likely begging for her life. The piece of cloth was taken out of her mouth and something was shoved into it.

Concubine Feng's voice become deformed almost inhumanly as her beautiful skin melted, the others were horrified. Her body continued to melt, her blood curdled and what was nearly nothing but mush.

A few maidservants came out and quickly cleaned It up spotlessness.

Since all the maidservants where under Lalya control, they didn't filch as they proficiently clean up the mess. Rachel looked at the remaining women, waved her hand "three left, please continue."

"….." Nothing was said as the eerie silence kept in.

"I count to three, if none of you pick by them. Consider yourselfers dead." Rachel said bluntly, looking bored was what everyone saw. But her closed eyes had something different in it, she finding herself becoming unstable.

"One..Two…" She started to count slowly. However, the three women made no motion to move, they where afraid. At this point she is wasting time, she raised her hand. "kill them" her voice was settling and soft, no malice just a simple command. The guards didn't hesitate as the killed the Concubines before they screamed.

"Before I forget, Official….." Rachel began a list of Corrupt Officials. "Drag them outside and kill, but, not before reading off their list of crime." She waved to Lalya and Hel, who quietly nodded. "Emperor, Empress, this Empress Dowager shall retire for the night." Rachel said as she walked away Ana following behind her. As soon as she got into her room she collapsed, and Ana held her up and walked her to her bed.

Sweat formed on her face, Rachel felt like she was being attacked.

[I might have been wrong to send you here. I didn't except for Cai Lingxin state to amplify.] Elfin said but Rachel wasn't conscious. [This must be due to Cai Lingxin not being compatible with the destroyer element. Although, she merged completely it caused such an anomaly. Should I report this?] Elfin wondered.

Night was in full bloom, Ana had just cleaned off her face that became bloodies to due to the number of assassin that had been sent.

"Well?" Hel asked sitting on the floor by the door eating some grapes. Michelle was focused out the window, and Lalya was using her magic to scan Rachel, She looked rather grim.

"Its no Good, I can't find anything…" Lalya said, neither Michelle's scan nor her power could find anything wrong. She wondered if it's something neither she nor Michelle can see, there is clearly something wrong with their master, but they can't figure out what.

"What are you staring at?" Ana finally asked because Michelle was so focused on outside.

"..."

Ana looked a little hurt and sighed.

"Don't take it to hard, Michelle, literally only answers Master. Her ignoring you is just her thinking your not important." Lalya said fixing her outfit. "Damn, these Asian clothes are so stuff. I can't understand how people can walk in something so long and unnecessary."

"You telling me, I want to strip out of these ASAP. Can you imagine if Kayle was here. She would have been ripped these clothes off once Master had her back turned." Hel smiled back while pulling the cup of whatever it is she was wearing.

"I don't see a problem with it?" Ana said confused.

"That's because you are always conservative, and you originally come from and Asian country like this." Lalya still wiggling around in the outfit. "Well, Is suppose, I have to think you. I wouldn't have known how to put these on without." Ana smiled and just as she was about to say, 'Your Welcome', Hel interrupted.

"Layla can you not say Asian so much like that, it makes you sound racist."

"She is right" Ana commented when she thought about it. Layla made a face and went silent.
