Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 378: The Scolded Daughter

Ashera received the golden letter, then checked the entirety of the unique envelope in her hand. In addition to the beautiful handwriting bearing her name, there was also a wax seal with an unknown symbol.

'Hmm? Which team is this intelligence agent from, hmm? This one is so unique to come with a formal letter, and is gold on top of it all.' Ashera only smiled faintly at whoever came up with this golden letter idea.

After that, she opened the wax seal, but it couldn't be opened easily. When the second attempt failed, she tried to open the letter using a bit of her magic because it didn't seem like an ordinary letter anymore.

'Are you Elven Empress Ashera Nirvalent?'

A girl's voice sounded as if it was straight to the ear. However, Ashera couldn't find who was speaking. Everyone in the hall just stared at her in silence as if waiting for something.

She looked at the golden letter again in confusion. It wouldn't open even after using magic. And now, a mysterious individual was asking for confirmation of the recipient via a telepathic link?

Regardless, Ashera decided to respond. 'That is me. May I know who I'm talking to?'

Unfortunately, Ashera didn't get any response after that. Then, however, the golden wax seal on the golden letter suddenly faded into particles.

Seeing that, Asera became somewhat surprised. What kind of intelligence agent was this? Did another kingdom send a high-level expert on that investigative mission?

Regardless of who, Ashera simply put aside her astonishment and immediately took out the paper from the golden envelope. At that very moment, her eyes slightly widened with an excited feeling in her heart.

This golden letter was sent by a divine being! The long-awaited Goddesses will finally arrive, and they just announced their arrival. Again their envoy was already inside this palace.

One of the letter's main points was that they requested a closed meeting attended by only the sovereigns, namely the supreme rulers.

"Captain Hagwin, please guide the one you referred to as an intelligence agent here. That individual is an honorable envoy!" Ashera gave her orders with a bit of enthusiasm. She subconsciously raised her voice as if to convey something urgent.

"Affirmative! Allow me to excuse myself to carry out your orders, Her Majesty." Hagwin immediately gave a knightly salute. Then, after getting a gesture from the Empress, he rushed out of the hall with no delay.

There was nothing to consider, let alone any questions. The Empress' orders were to be carried out without hesitation.

"Something happened and this meeting will be postponed until noon. Me and the four sovereigns need to hold a private meeting." Ashera stood up to dismiss the gathering. She asked everyone other than the supreme rulers to leave the hall.

When the question came, she simply emphasized her decision without giving any more explanation other than all that because someone important was coming.

Four other sovereigns also spoke out in support of Ashera. Thus, the high authorities could only comply with the request and leave the hall.

Even all members of the Royal Families were also asked to leave. So, only five sovereigns remained in the hall.

"Okay, everyone's out. Can you tell us the contents of that golden letter? Which honorable envoy are you referring to?" Uevareth sets his palms down flat on the table.

"The Goddess of Light and our Goddess are coming. You don't know what happened when I tried to open this golden letter earlier. But, just read this letter yourself." Ashera blew away the golden letter with her wind magic. It landed right on the blue-haired Emperor's hand.

Uevareth took the paper and read it. But, then, the others wanted it too, so he gave it afterward.

As all had read the golden letter, they stared at the single entrance of the hall as if eagerly awaiting the individual who would come soon.

A little to the east of the hall, Elysia and Arlayna were walking to follow the escort. They were like strolling in the corridor because the escort lady arguably relatively slow for some unknown reason.

"Look at that big imperial guard earlier. He looks fierce and annoying, but he's also the one who ran ahead of us. Who knows what made him rush like that." Arlayna shrugged her shoulders while sneering at someone she didn't like.

"He's probably rushing for an important reason, Ms. Arlayna. It's not graceful behavior for a fair lady to sneer at someone behind their back." Elysia shook her head slightly.

"Ah well, I am a magnanimous and not like those short minded ones. So I don't think about such trivial things even though he has accused me of being unimportant." Arlayna folded her arms under her chest and covered her mouth with her folding fan.

"Oh right! Who are you going to meet, Mr. Ali? I'll take you there, and don't worry because no one is going to stand in our way like before." Arlayna brought up the topic of the previous conversation. She needed to know about this Krasivaya Elf's connection to the imperial palace.

Unfortunately, she only got a faint smile in response. Then, when she was about to ask a more pertinent question, the escort spoke up and cut her off.

"Miss Arlayna Vencan, I have confirmed your request, and your father is in the main hall. You need to wait until this high-level meeting is over. We will escort you to the waiting room." The escort who was guiding the way stopped and turned around, a plaque in her hands.

"Huh? How long do I need to wait?" Arlayna frowned.

"Probably, about three to four hours." The escort lady responded nonchalantly.

Arlayna was about to reply, but some aristocrats suddenly appeared from another corridor and walked toward her. Then, it seems, the high-level meeting in question was over. But, at the same time, she also found her father among the aristocrats.

"Hey, Ms. Escort, look at that. Looks like the high-level meeting is over. Having said that, please excuse me." Arlayna grinned at the escort lady. However, she did not linger there any further and simply walked away to approach her father.

Well, the father and daughter were just a short distance away. It didn't take more than ten steps for Arlayna to greet her father. "Father, I've come to see you."

"Huh? What are you doing here, my daughter Arlayna. Didn't I tell you I have an important meeting at the palace?" The fat man with the thick mustache was slightly surprised to see his daughter suddenly come without any prior notice.

"Ehehe, and if you're here that means the important meeting is over, right? So, everything's fine." Arlayna giggled while fanning her face with her folding fan. But, she immediately whispered close to her father's ear. "Oh yeah, I came with a Krasivaya Elf named Ali. Please help me find out his identity, father. Pretty please~"

"Krasivaya Elf? A man? You truly... You already have two lovers and you want to add one more?" Ardryll felt overwhelmed by his wanton daughter.

"Pwetty pwease? This will be the last. I want to get this rare Krasivaya Elf, and I hope to make him mine even though he already has a baby daughter." Arlayna covered her mouth with her folding fan and whispered again carefully. She was confident that no one would be able to hear her whispers other than her father.

Before Ardryll could reply with anything, a burly imperial guard suddenly walked past him. That imperial guard rushed to approach a man holding a baby, a few meters behind his daughter.

"Phew... I finally found you. I'm here to pick you up to see Her Majesty. Please follow me because your presence is awaited in the main hall." Hagwin took a deep breath, then conveyed his objective.

"Ah, My apologies for troubling you, sir. In that case, please guide the way. We must not make Her Majesty wait long." Elysia nodded because she had been waiting for this guard to arrive.

"Alright, please follow me." Hagwin gave a respectful gesture to point the way with his open palm. Then, he walked in front to guide the honorable envoy.

Meanwhile, Arlayna was utterly dumbfounded to see her target walking past her with that big guard. So, someone he would meet was Her Majesty Empress Ashera Nirvalen!?

"What did you say just now, o my stupid daughter? Is the Krasivaya Elf you're referring to, the man, who was holding the baby, earlier?" Ardryll spoke in a low, slightly angry tone as if his family had almost committed a significant offense.

"Err... Yes? It's him? But-" Arlayna stuttered a little because she knew her father seemed angry. Yet, she couldn't finish her explanation before her father just cut it off.

"You stupid daughter, unfilial child! Do you want to throw our family into a pit? You think that man is an ordinary elf and you can treat it as you please?" Ardryll smacked his daughter's head.

"O-ow! What did I just do? I met him by accident and just like that." Arlayna held her head with both hands. A few tears appeared at the corners of her eyes because of the injustice.

"You still don't notice it even though you've been told implicitly? Ugh, he's an honorable envoy or something. Her Majesty postponed this high-level meeting just because of him. Now tell me, is that Krasivaya Elf an ordinary elf?

Where did your brain go? Did it go to your butt? It seems I was a little wrong to spoil you. I need to be a little strict before you invite disaster to our family." Ardryll scolded his daughter, and subconsciously his voice became high.

Instantly, all attention was on them. The other aristocrats just watched from the side, and Elysia even stopped to see what was going on.
