Chapter 313
313~ The Fixed Future of the Future?
"Is there really no other way?"
"There's no way. If there were, I would definitely let Mo act freely."
"I see..."
The Little Princess lowered her head.
Knowing the future's outcome yet having no way to change it?
The Empress could clearly jump freely to other timelines, yet could only do things that couldn't affect the future's major trends.
"If Mo wants to try to stop it, I'll support Mo."
As long as it was the Little Princess's request, she would satisfy it as much as possible within her abilities.
"Mm..."
Standing on the city wall for a long time, watching herself being crowned king, then having the crown placed on her head, her emotions were mixed.
If it wasn't her cheap Father the King personally placing the crown on her head, that meant her cheap Father the King in the future... would die!
She couldn't accept it. Why must her cheap Father the King definitely die? She didn't want people she knew to die before her eyes...
"Mo?"
"Mm."
"Want to go down and take a look?"
"Is that okay?"
Couldn't she not arbitrarily interfere with the timeline?
"Of course it's okay."
As long as she applied Concealment Magic on herself and the Little Princess, they could freely move through the Glaze Royal Palace. She believed what Mo cared about most right now was definitely the situation inside the Glaze Royal Palace.
"Let's go look!"
The Little Princess tugged at the Empress's clothes a few times. The Empress understood tacitly. Picking up the Little Princess and applying several layers of Concealment Magic, she jumped down from the city wall.
...
Inside the Glaze Royal Palace, it was a complete mess. The dilapidated garden hadn't been cleaned up yet. Even the group of small animals she raised were no longer in the back garden. The entire Glaze Royal Palace was filled with a decaying atmosphere.
So what exactly happened to the Glaze Royal Palace for it to be destroyed like this?
Normally, the Glaze Royal Palace had over a dozen Archmages stationed there. Although it wasn't like the Scarlet Phoenix Nation with dozens of Archmages plus a Great Archmage, placed in the Eastern Region, it was still a very luxurious configuration.
After all, there weren't many monsters at the Great Archmage level across the entire continent.
"Mo, where do you want to go look?"
"I want to find Xiao Xi!"
Xiao Xi was her greatest attachment besides that cheap Father the King, more important than anyone... Her cheap Father the King had already passed away in the future. She didn't want to lose Maid Xiao Xi again.
"Xiao Xi..."
The Empress released magic power to cover the entire Glaze Imperial Palace. After searching every corner once, she didn't find Maid Xiao Xi's figure. When she expanded the range to the entire Glaze City, she finally discovered her location.
Inside the Little Princess's palace in the White Glaze Experimental Zone.
After telling the Little Princess the situation, the Little Princess was already impatient for the Empress to carry her and fly over.
She had to properly confirm Maid Xiao Xi's condition!
"Mm."
Carrying the Little Princess and flying to the White Glaze Experimental Zone palace, the Little Princess had just landed when she immediately ran to the bedroom and pushed open the door.
"Xiao Xi!!!"
"Your Highness... the Princess?"
Maid Xiao Xi turned her head blankly, looking toward the doorway, but didn't see any figure.
Not finding her target, Maid Xiao Xi turned her head back to its original position and continued spacing out.
"Xiao Xi..."
What exactly... could turn her stupid Xiao Xi into this? Such a blank expression fundamentally wasn't what a normal person should have. She had only seen it on one type of person: people who had suffered severe mental trauma and became idiots!
"Princess... Princess..."
Maid Xiao Xi lay on the bed, rubbing the blanket with a blank expression.
The Little Princess just stood to the side, silently watching all of this.
"Xiao Xi!"
The Little Princess's voice, but it didn't belong to her current self. It was her future self... Her future self had come!
"Princess... you've returned... that's wonderful..."
"It's all right. Xiao Xi was very good today too. Did you obediently go to the bathroom by yourself?"
"Xiao Xi was very good... Xiao Xi didn't go to the bathroom on the bed..."
"Good, good, good. Xiao Xi is so good! Mwah~ This is a reward for Xiao Xi, okay?"
The future Little Princess coaxed the puppet-like Maid Xiao Xi.
"Mo, the Scarlet Phoenix Nation's military has officially intervened in Glaze Nation. Now Mo doesn't need to worry about troop problems. Do whatever you want freely."
"Mm. Thank you."
The future Little Princess thanked the future Empress.
Without the Empress, she most likely would have already become a puppet, controlled by others.
The future Little Princess still retained her cat ears and cat tail. They were just a lighter color. The fur had yellowed and hardened somewhat from not being able to rest well for a long time. But even so, the future Empress still very much enjoyed rubbing those cat ears.
"In the end, nothing has changed at all..."
The future Little Princess suddenly pounded the Empress hard with a fist, venting her emotions.
"If Mo is tired, sleep. Mo has already done very well."
The future Empress rubbed the cat ears, gently comforting the future Little Princess whose face had long been cried into a mess. She had been holding on the entire time until the coronation ceremony ended.
Condensing some magic power in her hand to construct a Sleep Charm and applying it to the future Little Princess, then using the same magic on the blank future Maid Xiao Xi, the future Empress turned her head.
"No need to hide anymore, Mo, and... me from the past!"
Casually removing the Concealment Magic on herself, the Empress locked eyes with her future self.
"I've been waiting for you two all along."
"Waiting all along? What do you mean?"
The Little Princess pressed.
"Because I've long known that the past Mo and past me would appear in this palace at this time."
She had already experienced it all once, so she could accurately know when the past her and past Little Princess would appear where, even clearly know what they were thinking.
"Just as you two have seen, I and Mo couldn't change anything. The future still arrived at the fixed future."
The Little Princess looked toward the Empress behind her.
Didn't she say there was no way to influence the timeline's major trends? What was the situation now? Why could the Empress of the future timeline see them?
The Empress shrugged, indicating she also wasn't clear.
"Of course, it's because I am me. The past me could jump to timelines, so naturally the current me can also see you who jumped over from other timelines."
The future Empress explained.
She knew what the past her and the Little Princess were thinking right now.
"Then what exactly happened to the future Glaze Nation?"
The Little Princess inquired.
"As Mo has seen, Glaze Nation changed dynasties. Mo established a new dynasty."
"I'm asking what happened during this period!"
If she knew what happened, maybe she could change the future!
"It's useless, Mo. You can't change anything."
The Empress smiled bitterly and shook her head.
The future Scarlet Phoenix Nation also stagnated in development due to turmoil. And the cause of all this was because of those Previous Dynasty Remnants who fled into Glaze Nation's territory... They awakened an Evil God... a true Evil God in the real sense...
