"Flower of the Heavenly Tree!" Lu Chen stared ahead in disbelief."Is the pilot, perhaps..."
"Mmh." Mu Xuan nodded.
Yao Si listened to them in confusion. What's that? Aren't you going to explain? Are the floating petals really alright?
In contrast to her anxiety, Mu Xuan remained calm and reached out to caress her head."This should be an invitation."
Invitation?
Yao Si stilled. In less than half a second, their aircraft headed toward the middle of the flower which was filled with silver leaves that unfurled outwards.
In a flash, the scenery changed. Instead of the control room, they were now submerged in a sea of flowers of every color and variety. A woman with hair long enough to touch the ground and skin as pale and flawless as snow stood in front of them. She was excruciatingly beautiful; it was as though she had walked out of a painting. Her exquisite looks made her seem like a precious artwork that collectors yearned to treasure, if only... she wasn't eight meters tall.
Yes, she was a giant, the kind that rivaled high-rise buildings.
Yao Si lifted her head to take a closer look.
"It really is the flower... Aves queen!" Lu Chen exclaimed, the shock visible on his face.
Queen!? So this giant was a female.
You sure are tall, sis.
Wait a minute ! Yao Si remembered some details about Aves from the notes Mu Xuan had passed to her: They were a technologically advanced and civilized race. They were one of the leading races in the Galactic and were extremely democratic.
"Doesn't the commander-in-chief have the highest authority in the Aves?" When did they have a queen?
"There is a single royal family among Aves, but they have never appeared publicly before. However, I never believed it! Ahhhh... I'm so lucky! I actually met the queen of Aves! After God Mu, she's the second most popular person in the Galaxy I wonder if I'll be able to see God Mu one day!"
"..." Er, you already saw him.
"Yao from the Ore Planet." The almighty queen flickered her eyes open, and a hollow airy voice echoed in the space. Her azure eyes had a magnetic pull that swept across the three of them."Tell me, which one of you possesses the ability which impregnated the beast?"
Eh?
Was the queen seeking a child as well?
"It's our boss." Before Yao Si could react, Lu Chen had already volunteered the answer.
"Lu Chen!" Didn't we promise not to expose the truth? How could you betray your comrades like this! Lu Chen pointed at Yao Si, totally disregarding her protest."Revered queen."
What's wrong with you?
"Great!" The queen nodded, turning toward Yao Si.
She could feel a force descending upon her, and a power surged within her.
Was it... an ability?
"He is bewitched by her seduction ability!" Mu Xuan frowned and activated his mental strength. The vigor of his strength sent a ripple through Yao Si as it radiated outwards.
"That..." The queen frowned."You're not necessary." She waved her hands, and both Mu Xuan and Lu Chen started to distort before disappearing.
"Mu Xuan!" Yao Si exclaimed. What had the woman done?
"Don't worry, I merely sent them back, " the queen explained before focusing back on Yao Si. The pressuring force came crashing onto her once again."Girl of the Yao, I need your help on a small matter."
Help? What do you mean?
The queen took a step forward, and a pair of wings spread out behind her massive figure. The wings were shaped like those of a butterfly. They were colourful and patterned, and about four-five times larger than her. They occupied a large space and seemed to posses a certain pull that sucking her in.
Yao Si felt her brain buzz, and she was suddenly engulfed by an impulse to sacrifice her entire soul for the queen's needs. It was an odd thought that appeared abruptly, and she could feel her mind growing heavy.
The queen's hollow but clear voice entered her thoughts."Yao girl from the Ore Planet, please use your special ability on me and give me the ability to conceive."
What?!
Yao Si stilled, her mind clearing.
F*ck, the supposedly mighty queen is really seeking a child... So I'm being treated as a fertility god again?
An advertisement flashed in Yao Si's mind: [Aves queen with a voluptuous figure, riches beyond your belief, and ethereal looks is willing to heavily reward the one who possesses the ability to impregnate in hopes to conceive and carry on the royal bloodline. ]
...
（＝＿＝）
"Unleash your ability!"
Before the advertisement could finish airing, the queen suddenly spread her wings. Yao Si felt her mind turning heavy as it sunk lower and lower, her body spiraling out of control.
"Wait a minute, my ability..." Is passive! F*ck, I can't just impregnate anyone!
But it was too late; the queen couldn't bear to wait any longer. Against her own will, Yao Si lifted her hands and summoned all the force within her and sent it toward the queen.
Wait a minute! I don't even know what this ability is!
"Sisi!" With a loud snap, something broke. Mu Xuan returned to the sea of flowers, and Yao Si felt herself relaxing, the uncontrollable force dissipating.
He was finally here!
"Are you alright?" Mu Xuan held onto her.
Yao Si nodded. She was fine, but her ability...
"You are actually able to break my illusion!" The queen frowned, starting to fume.
Mu Xuan's face fell. He hugged Yao Si with one hand while making a wave with the other. A huge sea of flames rose up, and the bed of flowers started to convulse before disappearing. The scene then returned to the empty pilot room.
"The Yao actually possess such a powerful individual." The queen quivered in shock, thoroughly infuriated."But... you chose the wrong opponent!" Her large wings flapped, creating a gust of frosty air. Rows of ice shards started to form in mid-air.
"That girl, I..." She suddenly stilled, a glazed look in her eyes. It could have been a hallucination, but the queen's eyes trembled, and her frosty authoritative tone turned tender and soft."I... I want to marry her!"
"..."
Ah?
Before Yao Si could react, she felt her vision blur, and the gigantic queen shrunk down to a normal height. She came in front of Yao Si and took her head in her palms tenderly. Suddenly, the queen inched closer and pecked Yao Si's cheek...
(￣口￣)!!
What's with this situation? Weren't you seeking a child? Why did your goals change so abruptly?
