My Wife is the Asura Empress

The blonde-haired beauty nodded and said in a leaden voice, "I just need a proper bath and a sound sleep."

"Right, We should go back now," Lia spoke, Seeing how tired and dusty they were after their expedition.

She thought it would be better for them to return and take a bath as staying in this grubby condition would not help them feel any better. The water would be a good cure for their skin after being soiled from the place they had returned.

The magenta-haired beauty had changed her hair color to black using the [Ancient Disguise] as she was preparing to go for the Empress Villa.

Rio helped Nyla and Helia to get up from the ground one by one, and they both didn't resist, rising to their foot.

This simple action wasn't escaped by the white-haired beauty's eyes as she saw the lioness was different towards the boy compared to last time. Usually, her sister would refuse Rio if he tried to aid her but today she didn't show any refusal.

'Something must have happened in their expedition that caused Helia to put her guards down for Rio. I have yet to ask if they succeeded in getting the first piece of the map but from their expression, it seems everything went well.'

Without even getting information about their torturesome adventure, Lia had already understood some of the things that could've happened in their time in search of the first piece of the map.

​

The night was a blanket of tranquility, a heart-soothing silence drowned the surrounding as they walked through the garden toward the Empress Villa. The moon shone high in the sky, enveloping the path ahead of them with its soft, silver light. The stars twinkled like jewels, sprinkling the night sky with a celestial glow.

The garden was a pleasure for the senses, with fragrant blooms of orchids and roses that spread their aroma in the air, and the soft rustling of leaves creating a joyful sound. Tiny little elven spirits of thumb sizes danced in the air around the rainbow fruit tree, their bright flashes of light adding to the magical ambiance of the garden.

When they neared the Empress villa, The soiled girls couldn't help but feel embarrassed as they caught the attention of the female guards standing at the entrance. Rio wasn't perturbed by their gazes but he was concerned for the two dirt-covered beauties by his side who were bashful.

The female guards were taken aback by the trio's appearance, their eyes widened as they saw the dirt and grime that stained Nyla, Rio, and Helia. They quickly snapped to attention as the environment become chilly from Lia's fierce gaze toward them.

They forgot for a second, it was rude to stare at them and make them uncomfortable as they never had seen someone from the royal family coming into the empress villa in this condition, Considering Nyla was also the princess and adopted daughter of Emperor Dylan.

The female guards were afraid they would get into trouble so they stopped staring at the trio and bowed their heads by bending ninety degrees.

Nyla and company made their way ahead as they entered the Empress Villa. The girls went into their own room while Rio went along with Lia to his main bedroom where he usually lived.

The white-haired beauty took a set of cloth and a white towel for him as she placed them in the bathroom.

She said, "Let me ask Yami to prepare the night meals for all of us and send them to Nyla's bedroom. I will also ask to place a dining table in that room with enough chairs so we can eat in peace and privacy."

The boy nodded as he could already guess his wifey hadn't eaten anything alone as she was worrying about three of them all day in the oval-shaped building.

He gazed towards the large bathtub and all the bathing utensils with a delighted expression before stepping into the bathtub.

Rio revolved the moon-shaped switch to turn on the shower that was up above his head, the cold water enveloped him, gradually washing away the grime and dirt from his body. He leaned back, closing his eyes and letting out a sigh of relief.

The cool refreshing water droplets fell on his tired body, seeping into his muscles as It helped to relax them, and for the first time after spending so many hours at the Fiery Southern Desert, he felt truly at peace.

Rio remembered the torturesome conditions of the scorching desert, the blistering sun, and the unforgiving far extended landscape in the sea of sands.

He also thought about the final trial and saintess questions, as he finally became the master of the Exalted Clover Ring.

They had to go through a rough journey to reach their mission. However now, in the comfort of the refreshing water in the bathtub, all of the tiredness from the expedition seemed to melt away.

The water lapped at his skin, gently cleansing and rejuvenating every pore. Rio felt his muscles soothing, and his mind calm.

He opened his eyes and gazed at the ceiling, feeling a sense of tranquillity wash over him. For a moment, he forgot about everything else and simply basked in the relaxing sensation of the falling water that collided against his skin.

After staying in the water for thirty minutes, Rio felt refreshed, both physically and mentally. With a faint smile on his face, he finished his bath, as he used the towel to dry his body and drowned in the new set of clothes that Lia had left behind for him.

When he walked out of the bathroom, he didn't find Lia there and went outside towards Nyla's room where Lia was going to set up their dinner together.
