Chapter 61: Emmah is at the Vale.

"Host, Elowin Thorin fell in love with Emmah because she was the first known female mage in Eldoria in the novel. Her powers combined with her beauty and knowledge which earned her the name divine messenger were the things that drew him to her.

Since she is no longer the only female mage, not a divine messenger and more of a schemer in his eyes, he will never have feelings for her. You can check his loyalty to Emmah if you need evidence." The system laid out the changes in the plot for Sigrid.

It even showed her Elowin’s loyalty to Emmah and it was in the red, meaning they were irreconcilable.

It was right because Elowin flinched as if hot water had been poured on his arm, "Sigrid, I am not so foolish as to lose my mind over a woman that is so obviously morally repugnant. Everyone has seen it, she is holding your husband in one hand and the third prince in another. The two brothers are foolishly embracing her and competing to see who will tend to her needs faster than the other.

I don’t get it, do they not realize that people are watching them and tomorrow there will be talk about their behavior. That bastard husband of yours, because of him people will be looking at you the same way they look at the queen."

"With reverence." Sigrid made light of the moment.

Elowin turned his eyes to the side and said softly, "Pity, I would say pity." He moved closer and put a hand on Sigrid’s shoulder. "Sister, why don’t you consider divorcing? The laws on marriage were changed yesterday, even a woman from the royal family can escape a hellish marriage now."

"Don’t you think that its too early to throw in the towel?" Sigrid responded with a question but she didn’t give him a moment to respond and added, "If I divorce him, Emmah gets to take my place easily. Our whole family will have to run to Medoris or Nemoris to avoid her trouble which will be impossible if she gathers the shards and becomes empress of all three kingdoms combined."

"We can move to High..." Elowin started.

Sigrid cut him off, "Nowhere will be safe for us on earth, when have you ever known a conqueror that is invincible to stop at one kingdom when seeking power?"

She started walking and he quickly fell into step beside her, walking her to her carriage as they discussed how Eldoria how come to grow its current size, it was through swallowing other territories. The strong nations swallowed the weak ones, that was just how it worked.

Before getting into the carriage, Sigrid had one last question for her brother.

"How is the reaction so far, lady Blanche?"

Elowin raised both thumbs up. "The whispers have already started, you were not paying attention because of the Rosewood girl but people were darting frowns in Emmah’s direction. The similarities between her and lady Blanche are very many, by sunrise tomorrow, they will be talking about her as much as the series."

"Good, start selling mystic crystals before the night falls, let’s spread it through the city, it should be a blockbuster." Sigrid spread her arms out wide, looking up at the sky.

The suns rays were already starting to dim, soon night would be upon them.

"What is a blockbuster?" Elowin asked curiously.

"A hit." she answered as she waved. "I am leaving, I still have a lot of empty gaps to fill before tomorrow."

She entered the carriage and the horses set off immediately at incredible pace, she had replaced the ordinary horses with those from the mage estate. The journey was rather short and within twenty minutes, she arrived at home.

Without delay, she started giving out orders, "Brolin, give some beggars and story tellers money, have them spread the news of my intention to adopt Emmah."

"Yes, crown princess."

"Your highness, are you really planning to adopt her?" Lanai asked.

Sigrid smirked, "Of course not, why would I do such a stupid thing? I just need the word to spread so that others will point fingers if she behaves inappropriately around my husband in public. There is nothing everyone in Eldoria loves more than a good scandal. As long as they see her as the crown prince’s adopted daughter even her relationships with the other princes will give people cause to raise their eyebrows after all, if the crown prince is considered her father then they are her uncles."

Sigrid covered her mouth and chuckled as she revealed her sinister plan, slowly the chuckle built into a full ominous laugh as she imagined the look of horror on Emmah’s face if things went as planned.

"Oh, Lanai send word to my grandfather, Bumblebert should stir the waters, I think a public reunion between the happy couple is a good idea. It would be best if he hugs her and sweeps her off her feet in front of some nobles." She added as an after thought after laughing.

"Her reputation will be damaged, not even the king will be able to make any of the princes take her in no matter her abilities as a mage." Lama said.

Sigrid nodded, more importantly for her, Emmah would be too busy running around to clean up her reputation to accomplish much. She would also be busy trying to win back the affection of the men that she would not have time to catch up with Sigrid who was already ten steps ahead.

But of course, Sigrid had not forgotten about the halo, while she made plans, it was also working so she wanted to be have plans A, B,C,D,E and so on.

"Oh, one more thing, tell our people around Rina to whisper some misleading lies about Emmah to their consort. The two should meet and become friendly, I will borrow one to destroy the other." She took a deep breath and stretched.

They reached the bedroom and she moved to the window for a second, a strong part of her was uneasy, she had a feeling that the halo was going to screw her over before the sun set.

Sigrid’s unease turned out to be right, three hours later as she was going over the accounts for the restaurant in her bed chamber, the doors were opened and Roland stumbled in.

His butler followed and two maids but Sigrid waved her hand, sending them away. She had no idea why he had come to her bedroom rather than his.

Was he there to consummate the marriage, she wondered. He had come back victorious, it was not unusual for a man to crave sex after winning wars, that is why brothels were busiest when soldiers returned from the battlefield.

"You have a guest, I don’t think I need to elaborate." She heard Cosmos’s voice in her head.

Sigrid clenched her hand around the pen she was holding and she snapped it into two. She exhaled loudly, convincing herself not to explode as she looked at her husband who was still under the influence of Emmah’s halo.

"Do you need help with your clothes?" She closed the account book and walked towards towards him.

When she reached him, she put her hands on his chest and removed his cloak. This was usually a job for his maids, she didn’t mind doing it, even an act as simple as this one could draw them closer.

His eyes, when she looked into them appeared to be unsettled, his demeanor had gone back to reset, distant and cold.

"Emmah will sleep here tonight." he suddenly informed her.
