"I…I don't know…what you are talking about…Ahnn~Ahnn~" Olivia still was able to hold on to some clarity of mind and was able to prevent herself from letting Tristen gain complete control over her.

Still, she had to admit that this young man indeed knew the best ways to make a woman feel good. She never expected she would feel so turned on in such a situation, especially from a young man's touches.

Tristen clutched her face as he whispered, "Then you really prefer to lose your throne?"

Olivia's expression froze, but then her expression relaxed as she said with a smile, "Prince Tristen…h-how can I tell you something that I don't know?"

Tristen's brows furrowed but then he smiled as he said, "We will see about that. Come meet me outside this evening. Of course, you can disguise yourself if you want to."

He even let go of her, making Olivia suddenly feel a bit disappointed that he stopped since she never felt so good in a long time, especially under all the stress she had to bear as an empress. Ironically, Tristen messing with her was sort of a stress-relieving time for her, though she knew he held a card that could destroy her future.

Olivia felt strange that he was asking her to come to meet him outside in disguise, but for some reason, she could see that he was up to no good, and that made her feel a bit nervous about what he was planning.

Meanwhile, after an hour, Tristen was sitting in a pub with Damien sitting at the table behind him, acting as if he was minding his own business.

However, in reality, Damien was looking through Tristen's memories to see if he was able to cough out any information from Olivia.

But as expected, unfortunately, Olivia didn't seem that easy target, though Damien wasn't surprised since she was still an empress and must have a certain level of mental fortitude.

He had sent Tristen to break her by making her lose herself in pleasure since he mused that a woman like her was most susceptible to fall for that.

And Tristen was actually someone who practiced taboo dual cultivation arts without the knowledge of anyone else. Damien wasn't surprised when he first learned about this, but he didn't mind since he felt that his skills might come in handy sometime later when dealing with women like Olivia.

However, he was frustrated that he didn't get any information that could help him deal with Ruthren, especially when the Annual Rising Sun Convention was going to take place tomorrow.

But with Tristen's help, he found out that there were indeed people from the Xeton Empire lurking around here, especially in the palace where even Elders from the Xeton Empire were walking around the palace with a vigilant gaze.

Damien knew that Ruthren must have placed them there in hopes of catching him in case he tried to meet Lily.

And to add to all that, even men from the Gale Empire were here on the lookout for him, though he expected that from the Gale Emperor after pissing him off multiple times to the point where he not only destroyed his empire's most reputed branch guild but even stole from his treasury.

The only empire that seemed least bothered about him was the Lancaster Empire, but even then, Damien felt very restricted because of having three of the four empires of the continent being on the lookout for him.

There was rigorous checking by not only guards but even powerful elders at the main entrance of every important building in the empire, let alone the palace.

And this checking included even the usage of powerful formations, and Damien wasn't confident that they wouldn't be able to see through his disguise. If Valentina was awake right now, that would have been a whole different story.

"Tristen, you stay here and destroy Olivia. But don't get caught. Be very discreet," Damien mentally ordered Tristen as he got up and left and looked at the skies as he thought, 'I guess it's time to distract these bastards."

The next day, it was a very busy morning for the entire continent as all the four empires were busy preparing to hold the Annual Rising Sun Convention, where all the four rulers would meet together and discuss the future of the Rising Sun Continent.

It was also during this meeting that various alliances would take place, exchange of trade agreements and tax discussions while trying to settle any conflicts that might exist between these empires.

All the important and powerful noble families would certainly be attending this convention while the common people would gather in masses to simply get a glimpse from afar. After all, this was a very important day for them as well since these rulers might make decisions that could cause some changes in their daily life.

At the same time, they could also get to see all the famous geniuses and beautiful princesses who rarely show themselves in public, especially ones like Lily from afar.

However, they were all disappointed when the Xeton Empire announced that their princess, Reva, wouldn't be making an appearance due to being in seclusion.

But the people had no idea that this time the four rulers were meeting together to discuss not about the people but something far bigger.

As for Lily, her maids were helping her with all the makeup and picking out the most elegant clothes for her to wear for the convention. In the public's eyes, this was an occasion for her to meet all her potential suitors who might be participating in the tournament, and thus it was only natural they expected her to be at her prettiest.

However, Lily was least bothered about her appearance or what other people were thinking as she looked into the mirror. All she was thinking about was the fact that she might meet Damien soon.

She checked on Olivia secretly to see what Tristen did to her, but she seemed fine other than the fact that she seemed a bit out of it and distracted.

However, Lily had no idea that Olivia was way more distracted than she thought.

Despite today being a big day for her, Olivia was absent-minded for the most time. In fact, she was inwardly swearing at Tristen as she thought about what happened last evening when she went out with him.

'How dare he…If only his father was not the Gale Emperor, I would have boiled him alive!'
