Rise of the Cosmic_Emperor

Chapter 478 - A Peculiar Consort And A Familiar Face.



The Imperial City...

Tagged a city but more than large enough to compete with any Duchy. In fact, it was once the kingdom ruled by the Harons before they sought absolute dominance over the entire continent.

The Imperial city...

It was where the Emperor lived and from where he ruled the entire continent. From where he prevailed over the human race. The dominance of his Haron lineage that has not been toppled for millennia.

And yet, grand as it all was, the only thing that actually came to Hal\'s mind was, 

\'The Imperial palace... I wonder how many world-class beauties the emperor has in his imperial harem. The mere thought of cucking an Emperor gives me such thrill.\'

\'To even think of cucking the Emperor as weak as you are right now... Your greed truly has no limit.\' Grimoire piped

Hal scoffed, 

\'Let\'s not even talk about a human Emperor, if I get the chance to get away with it and laugh in their faces afterward, I\'ll cuck gods!\'

The Conversation was quick and Hal did not allow his thoughts to show on his face even though Tanya could not see him,

"Fine. I\'ll come to the Imperial palace" he said.

"You will?" Tanya seemed taken by surprise at how readily he accepted to come and see her in the Imperial Palace.

\'Was she seriously thinking I would be too intimidated to go? How naive\'  Hal thought with a mild chuckle.

Tanya composed herself almost immediately, 

"Okay then" she said and made to disconnect but Hal said before she could, 

"Oh, but if I am coming, I can\'t possibly be expected to pay for my own transportation, can I?" 

"Why shouldn\'t you pay for yourself?" Tanya asked.

Hal smirked, 

"Oh? You\'re a princess and are not ready to fund your asset\'s travels? How cheap can you be?" He asked.

\'Look who\'s talking!\' Grimoire said in outrage and Hal ignored it.

"Fine. I\'ll fund your travels" Tanya said before disconnecting.

Hal decided there was no point in dawdling and went right to the Teleportation that had taken him to Doxon Duchy. He took his time so he could be sure Tanya would have gotten things ready for his departure.

Sure enough, when he got to the teleportation circle building and stated his name, he was told he did not need to pay. 

Probably took just one call from the Princess.

It was that easy.

The journey to the Imperial city would take two days. The same as the length of journey between two neighboring Duchys.

The imperial city stood right at the center of the Haron continent and was surrounded by Four Duchys which made up the inner ring (Unofficially) named) of the continent.

Then the remaining Eight surrounded the four to complete twelve Duchys.

The Silva and Doxon Duchys were two of the four Duchys surrounding the Imperial city and so the journey to and from them was bound to be short.

Hal stepped onto the Teleportation circle and it was activated which saw him get sucked into the void.

When his eyes opened next, he was inside a Teleportation circle quite similar to the one he had gone into but yet possessing an elegance about it that set it aside.

After going through the usual refusal to have to state his name and then having his image taken, he then walked out of the building to see that the elegance he had noted or more accurately, felt in the Teleportation building was not restricted to the building. 

The entire air of the Imperial City had the feel of that elegance. 

The feel that they were at the center of everything.

And then, there was the Imperial Palace.

So immensely huge and impossible to miss.

Sitting at the center of the Imperial city.

It was there Hal headed.

Maybe he could have taken his time sightseeing but he was quite eager for something else at the moment.

And not all of those reasons were perverted.

After all, the main reason he had come here was to have a sit down with Tanya and find out where the map he had gotten from the Kruger estate led to.

He boarded a carriage which took him directly to the palace gates which were being guarded by intimidating-looking guards with intimidating late-stage Cosmic Aurora realm cultivation.

Only the Emperor\'s domain could ever showcase such flex where mere guards who stayed at the gate and were the weakest of his forces had cultivation to put some seasoned cultivators to shame.

The guards looked at Hal hostilely and were already sending him signals that he was not to even dare getting closer.

Hal paid them no heed as he took out his communication talisman. He contacted Tanya but it was Ehrlich who answered the call and while he rolled his eyes and the buff man groaned in annoyance on the other side, he still told him of his arrival.

"Wait there" Ehrlich said.

A few minutes later, the buff man arrived and the guards let him through where he then called to Hal to lead him inside.

As they walked towards the closest Teleportation circle, Ehrlich spoke, 

"Be careful what you say in here. Your stupidity will not be seen as endearing. You are a nobody in the presence of the noblest of all bloodlines in the Haron continent. The Haron Bloodline.

This is an honor and should not be taken lightly." Ehrlich said and paused when they arrived at the closest Teleportation circle to the gate and then turned to look back at Hal, 

"Do you understand?" He asked.

Hal in turn looked absolutely clueless, 

"Do I understand what?" 

Ehrlich swelled in anger, 

"Do you understand everything I have just said?" He asked again.

"You were saying something?" Hal asked as he had indeed tuned Ehrlich out. 

Why would he waste his time listening to the buff idiot when he could better spend that time with his thoughts on more important things.

Ehrlich growled but he said nothing.

The Teleportation circle took them deeper into the palace grounds but not directly to their destination.

All Teleportation circles in the Imperial palace had limits in their range which means, no matter what, you need to use more than one circle to reach any area of the Imperial palace or to leave the palace.

This was actually one of the reasons Ehrlich had launched into a speech to caution Hal on how to speak.

As there was no direct transportation to Tanya\'s residence, they were bound to meet so many of those who lived in the Imperial palace along the way.

Sure enough, right at the moment they stepped off the Teleportation Circle, they indeed met someone.

She was a woman dressed in stately attire that befitted her status as a woman in the Emperor\'s inner court.

Her brown hair was adorned with so many expensive ornaments that did not take away attention from the gorgeous imperial hairpin that held her hair in place at the top of her head. A hairpin that told of her status.

A hairpin Ehrlich recognized but Hal was clueless to.

"Your highness" Ehrlich bowed low, keeping his face out of sight as he did not dare to look this woman in the face.

In truth, she was not the Empress, but that was the only title her status was lacking for she was the mother of the First prince, Creten Haron who many already perceived would be inducted as the Crown prince.

Hal felt this was not the moment to act prideful or arrogant, (after all, who the hell was he in face of such status), so he followed Ehrlich\'s lead and bowed.

The Imperial consort did not really spare them any looks.

She was used to being bowed to.

It was the natural order of things.

How could they possibly not bow, knowing who she was?

However, as she walked uncaring past them, with her attendants trailing behind her, something about the black-haired lean young man caught her attention.

Something she could not really explain.

"Look up" she told Hal and he did so immediately to nail the beautiful consort whose ample breasts could not be totally hidden by her robe, with his sapphire blue eyes.

The consort bit her lip and then walked away in a huff.

As Hal watched her leave, he could not help but smile,

\'Interesting\' he thought.

Judging from the slight shake of her legs, Hal knew the consort was on the verge of an Orgasm.

From seeing his face.

While standing.

In a fairly public place with her attendants and clueless Ehrlich present.

\'Very interesting\'

Funny thing was that Hal who usually paid a lot of attention to women could not really be sure of the Consort\'s features. Other than ample breasts and brown hair, he could not make any more mention of her features.

The work of an Artifact... Or was he just not paying enough attention overall?

"Let\'s go" Ehrlich said, eager to leave and not willing to talk about the consort who was now gone.

However, as fate would have it, Hal was to see someone else that actually struck a familiar chord in him.

And that was because he had seen the man before.

As the Prince (Hal could tell he was a prince due to his robes) walked by and Hal followed Ehrlich\'s lead to bow, his attention was actually on the attendant closest to the Prince.

It was a man with multicolored hair and green eyes that seemed to have slits.

Hal instantly recognized him as the semi-saint, who belonged to an Organization the Princess was against, who almost grabbed hold of him at the Kruger Estate.
