Chapter 12: Boredom Out of Power
Chapter 12: Boredom Out of Power
In just a moment, there was ice age after the white hell and if time was not stopped, just the breeze from these ice would send chills to the ferocious beasts and even to the snake-like creature in the clouds.
"....." the great conqueress already expected the result but she just went with it, not fearing that she might be wrong and would've killed her allies. But she believed that much wouldn't kill anyone strong enough to enter that castle anyway.
With a frown, the ice age shattered into fragment before disappearing into the air becoming just a cool breeze.
Overbearing!
After the ice age shattered in a single moment, she "looked" at the beasts under her and they were unharmed and still unmoved.
"Hm... It is as if time really stopped..." she pondered but a moment later and the surrounding gained its color back but it was just for a second until it turned to black and white again.
However, in that single moment when time came back, the generals underneath her already noticed her sudden shift in position.
"Heh... this is fun..." looking at their shocked expressions, Great Conqueress Darea was amused. Her other hand then went to take the wine glass but as she pulled, even with her cosmic strength, she didn't move an inch of it.
She didn't look nor even turned her head. She didn't even open her eyes but she already knew why she couldn't pull it. In that gap of a second when time temporarily came back, the glass wine was no longer a part of her and when time stopped again, the wine glass became a part of the unmoving world.
Great Conqueress Darea frowned again.
"So I'm something special... maybe because I gained the Absol Mind. But what is the cause of this..?" she then slowly stood up and the thin cloak silks then followed her every movement.
The Absol Mind she was talking about was the enlightenment one would reach after reaching a specific rank as an Elementalist. Something none in all of history and worlds know except for her, the first person to ever reach the Rank of Estrias.
When she stoop up, it revealed a fiery red scabbard on her back. It was small so the handle of the blade could only peek so much on her right shoulder.
There were lines of molding fire on the handle of the blade as if intricate carving. This was the weapon she used in defeating titans and monsters to reach such power and conquer three continents in total.
Then time went back again and stopped in the next second. The beast and demon generals had their heads faced in front with dark expressions as if they realized their mistake. They were too scared to even meet their queen's face without though her eyes were closed.
In their perspective of time, they just saw the instantaneous shift of positions of their ruler. For their keen eyes, they knew that it was of speed in another league, further putting their ruler on another level yet again in their impressions.
When Avion did this, the witnesses only thought he was too fast for their inexperienced eyes since many of the Elementalists could do that with body strengthening and mind enhancement.
But in front of these overlords, they could easily see that there was no gap of movement between position one and position two making it as if their ruler suddenly shifted the position of her body. Even with their vast knowledge and experience, they don't know of such ability.
"Hm..." the great conqueress smiled for a bit in amusement but turned back to her cold-blooded expression.
In front of her was a humanoid lizard wearing an elder's robe. That lizard was one of the decision-makers that made up the brain of her empire. The humanoid lizard had his head pressed on the floor with an expression of great fear and regret.
The elder lizard was caught being an opportunist, making use of their queen's overpowered strength, thinking that she was only all brawns with no brains. He became greedy and tried to manipulate the queen with a sharp tongue.
However, that just proves how naive and stupid that lizard was. Not because their queen was always silent and just conquers using brute power, it doesn't mean that she has no intellect.
That was the moment he found out he was greatly wrong and was found guilty. Having offended the great conqueress, his life is practically over resulting in his disgracing position.
When color returned, the great conqueress said, "Don't move..." then the black and white returned.
The reason why the generals had fearful expressions was due to thinking that the queen was so angry, she was showing her true power as of the moment. A power that they only first saw in that day after they already conquered three continents in total.
With such ability to shift in position and place in an instant, the conqueress is practically invincible. Meaning, she still hasn't gone to full strength against the past rulers of the three continents back then. In their minds, they erased any thoughts of being betraying the queen in fear of repercussions.
She may be able to take on the god that resides on the Centre or the Lord Sorcerer in Arcanas, finally conquering the whole world, making her empire the world itself, meaning, complete dominance over all life in existence!
These were their high ambitions but the great conqueress's only goal was to specifically conquer those three continents, unifying. Even if all the generals that were once king and emperors unite and fight her at the same time, they will still lose to her immense power that is why the humanoid lizard became desperate due to greed and in search of power.
The Great Conqueress Darea then stepped on the humanoid lizard's head and in the second that time and color went back, she stomped her foot that made the whole gigantic castle tremble. But the shockwave has yet to even reached the foot nor the roof of the castle when time stopped again...
The blood that exploded and even the noticeable shockwave on the floor stopped.
"Interesting..." she said as her boots were automatically cleaned by water, coming out of nowhere. She then exited the throne room and to one of the castle's balcony. She looked at the soundless, colorless, and moveless landscape.
"I want this power... maybe the Lord Sorcerer has it. I'll put the Arcansas in my bucket list then." her calm voice sounded as if she was a high school girl who decided to get ice cream on her way home from school.
After this, time went back and off multiple times before the flux of time finally stabilized and continued. However, never once the great conqueress changed her expression. She was still peaceful and passive as if she was in total control. She never feared that this may be caused by something more massive than she would expect.
No, that was not it. It's not that she didn't fear it, but she enjoyed it. After conquering three continents and unifying them all, her once impossible goal was achieved and her life became bland like the strong wine.
But now, something abnormal happened and added a new flavor to her life...
None of the creatures below knew what happened nor the generals in the throne room. Even the shockwave from her stomp earlier just reached the railing of the balcony.
On the horizon, the sun peeked through the darkened clouds, illuminating the otherworldly city. Even with her eyes closed, she looked as if she was mesmerized by the view.
By the chilling breeze from remnants of the ice age she created earlier, her mantle blew, making her look majestic as the apex of the underworld, the ruler of all demon and beast, and the conqueress of continents, Darea Irdona, Rank: Estrias...
Without any demon and beasts knowing, their queen had already decided to wage war on another continent solely for her amusement.
