My Wife is the Asura Empress

Rio walked towards the Teleporter tower.
His destination was Brightforest watchtower shelter. It was a purple-tier shelter under Asura's in the corrupted land.
This was where he was getting a calling signal for Monarch Beast as if it was inviting him to their place.
This also felt as if a living compass was in his mind, he could sense the direction.
"It's better Lia doesn't find out. I don't want her to get worried unnecessarily." Rio thought worriedly and changed his appearance into Leon.He received a [Teleport Glyph] for Bright Forest watch tower shelter from the old man.
Rio entered the reserved room for the royal family with the fist-sized brown paper.
After climbing up the ascended platform, he tore apart the [Teleport Glyph] for his next destination and disappeared into the space rift.
The Brightforest Watchtower shelter was situated in Saannore Forest. It was a landscape far from the shamor empire and any human shelters.
The reason was simple. This Forest had a strange phenomenon that no beast lived there. Humans had no reason to wander in this land's direction due to a lack of treasures to satisfy their greed.
Rio walked out of the Brightforest watch tower and his vision welcomed a lengthy grassland in front of him that was expanded too far away in the distance.
Rio was getting a calling sensation for the Monarch beast that was beyond the grassland.He didn't waste any time contemplating his choices and kicked the ground beneath him to bolt in his target's direction.
The blonde-haired boy traveled passed the grassland after sprinting for an hour.
His yellow stats points were double that of a yellow stage warrior so it helped to boost his speed. The [Life Sutra] innate skill helped him with stamina and mana recovery to keep him refreshed.
A green mountain, whose top peak was hidden in clouds, appeared in front of him. It was extended to both sides and had a detour to go past it.
'There should be a way.'
He activated his [Heaven's Eyes], which helped him see the detailing of mountains from his location.
There was a narrow path made at the bottom.
"Found it...The calling of Monarch beast is beyond this mountain." He spoke in a quiet voice and entered the narrow path that was covered in vines.
It led him deeper and reduced the distance to the other side of the mountain.
The number of vines increased as he traveled further away.
'Ah...even mana-enchanted hands aren't enough to tear it.'
He summoned a silver bloom king's sword to slice them apart to clear his path.
Rio had to use mana enchantment on his silver bloom king sword to finish this weary task.
After crossing the strait path, Rio saw an enormous green lake whose ending wasn't visible to him even using the [Heaven's Eyes].
There were moving circular stones on the surface that were big enough for two people to stand on it.
These floating platforms were moving to the edges of the lake to wait a few seconds before going to the other side whose ending was unknown to the blonde-haired boy.
He looked around to look for another route but it was of no use.
'I need to use these to go to the other side. There doesn't seem to be another path.'
Rio saw a returning circular stone in his direction and walked towards it.
When the floating stone appeared in front of his foot, he calmly landed on it.
After waiting for a few seconds, it started flowing towards the other side of the enormous green lake.
Rio finally departed as he kept traveling on the surface of the water using the floating stone towards his destination.
After half an hour, the boy was closer to the other end as he could see a huge green dome in the distance and a small island was visible in front of him.
'So this is where Monarch Beast lives.'
As Rio reached closer, with the help of his [Heaven's Eyes] he could clearly see a majestic dome that was enormous. It was covering the whole island inside its body as if protecting it from the outer world.
This huge dome was made of transparent green light, covering a dense green forest inside its perimeter.
As he landed on the island, the transparent green bubble surface was in front of him.
He saw a big board placed to the side which had a message written on it.
'Uninvited Guest would burn. Usage of the beast soul is forbidden.'
"The monarch beast is calling me. Ain't I invited already?" He mumbled and summoned his beast soul.
A defensive layer covered his whole body, head to toe, enveloping him in a protective yellow light.
'Let's see.'
He walked towards the green bubble that was part of the huge dome and placed his left hand's index finger inside it.
As soon as Rio's finger entered the dome, it lit up on the green flame.
Within a second, the armor on his finger was damaged. The blonde-haired boy instantly withdraw his hand as it was his human instinct to retreat in danger.
'My finger didn't hurt?'
He inspected his left-hand finger, the beast's soul's part was burned there but his bare skin was completely unharmed.
'...'
Rio tried putting his finger without the beast's soul. Fortunately, the outcome was positive.
He sighed inwardly and recalled his beast soul as it would be bad to waste it unnecessarily.
The blonde-haired boy entered the bubble to land inside the green forest with a pleasant heart.
Thick trees had jammed the place with a small path going towards the Monarch Beast location.
Where ever his eyes moved he only saw greens enveloping in its embrace.
Azure and white butterflies were fluttering their wings as they flew around to go towards the same path he was traveling.
Sun barely entered this dark place as it was covered by the broad crown of thick trees. But the surrounding area was illuminated by a blue light whose source was unknown.
He moved deeper into the dense forest. A small waterfall was falling down from a heap of stones that formed a small stream of green water.
After traveling for five minutes, the color of the trees changed as their branches were filled with pink leaves. The ground was also dyed pink by the fallen leaves. The scenery became surreal the further he walked.
Rio could see a bright glowing light in distance, he fastened his pace towards this direction as Monarch beast's whereabouts could be felt there.
The calling was getting stronger as he traveled deeper into the forest. He wasn't nervous at all as [Heart Sutra] helped him to keep a relaxed mind.
As he marched passed the pinkish land, a place with small tree-sized mushrooms came into his view, which was in three different shades of red, blue, and yellow.
A large pond was in the middle with fireflies flying around along with many butterflies of azure and white color dancing alongside them.
There were big red lotuses on the water's surface and colorful bloomed flowers scattered everywhere, making this place appear like wonderous land.
But all this magical scenery failed to get his attention.
His eyes were fixated on a beautiful figure, a ravishing girl who appeared as if she was part of this magical fairy-tales-like garden.
'This lady looks as if she is one of the artistic flowers in this magical forest.'
A gorgeous figure was gazing at him with her green eyes while sitting on a root that was covered in moss which was spread horizontally a dozen centimeters above the ground as if it wanted to let the dazzling beauty sit there and use it as her throne.
A cold smile was flashing on her plumpy red lips. Her long, pointy ears poked out of her orange-red hair that was falling down on her firm bosom.
The elf beauty's ripe melons were showcasing their charm as she was drowned in a one-piece white dress with cyan patterns on her shoulder that barely covered her curvaceous body.
However, it was enough to hide all her important jewels. Her sexy slender legs gave her a seductive appearance as it was boldly revealed to the audience.
Any other man would be charmed by her ravishing figure and it was said that elves' beauty was blessed by nature who lived for thousands of years.
Rio had heard about elves in fairy tales but he never imagined he would meet one. Even in the land of Asura, it was a rare experience.
"Welcome, Rio...I have been waiting for you. Haven't humans or Asura taught you that It's a bad manner to make a lady wait this long? Tsk...I thought you would be a gentleman. Aishh..." A charming voice escaped from her plumpy red lips.
The orange-red-haired beauty spoke in a tone as if she was disappointed by this young boy but her coquettish voice also showed the girl was just teasing him for fun.

[SnowNote]
This elf was supposed to enter the story at this point but I don't know how well her character will be developed and how much screen time she will get.
Hope it goes well...
The designing of the whole fantasy forest and setup took a lot of time. This location is going to stay in the story as an important place so needed to create well.
