Lucy's POV

I flew over the great expanse of night with great speed. The faster I do this, the sooner I can go back without being noticed. My feet touched the grounds of another beautiful garden although less grand. I was targeting two lesser villages. I want to start small before going big.

The first village I'm in is Shu. The government officer in charge of Shu, Fuhei, had falsified its reports of money expenses. What I'm worried about is that the most of the funds are going to the military finances.

I quietly walked to the offices with great caution. I avoided guard posts and finally reached the main office but it seems that a meeting was happening. I quickly called upon a silver key, Corvus. He silently popped in, understanding the situation.

Corvus was the constellation of the raven or crow. He specialized in things like stealth and shadows. He spread his black crow wings and immersed us in shadows. We slipped under the door and silently watched the happenings in the room.

"Sir Fuhei, here is the status report in the military. So far, we are confident that they have the skills to face anything. The capital also hasn't noticed anything suspicious pertaining to us."

"Although, I don't want to do this but the kings lack of action towards the empire drives me to do this." Sir Fuhei curtly replied.

'I was right, they were planning to rebel. Although, it's for a reason I didn't expect.' Lucy curiously noted to herself.

I decided that the best plan of action would be negotiate.

Without revealing herself yet, Lucy had spoken clearly for them to hear, "Would that really be the course of action?"

They all jumped to their feet. "Who's there, come out from wherever you are!"

Some were already panicking and had called guards. As the guards entered, I quickly shut them out by closing the door courtesy of Corvin. Corvin was still in his shadow form which made it seem like it was an unnatural force at work. For them to listen to me, I needed to establish the power and authority.

I silently thanked Corvus, who just hesitantly nodded back before returning to the spirit world. As I slowly immerged from the shadows, I continued to speak and smiled softly. "Do not be afraid, I won't hurt you.

What had surprised me though was that about four of them had bowed down on the floor before curtly saying, "It's the goddess that came to save our people and bring us to our greatest glory! We welcome you oh goddess."

Although I wanted to laugh at being called goddess, I had to make this intentional. It was a nice compliment though opposed to….never mind.

I shook my thoughts and focused at the task at hand. "Stand please, although, I thank you for your welcome."

"How do we really know you're a goddess and not a ninja or warrior against us, how are we sure your intentions towards China are good." Some guy in the room called out.

Good point considering I still had my cloak on which had covered the bulk of my wings and most of my face.

"Why would I bother with a war meeting? Well think closely about what you're going to do carefully men. When you instigate war, you will not only throw the country into disarray but also fail in doing so. Lives will be lost and separation will take place. Where will your income of money for this war happen because you will need all that for your supplies and tools you may need? Who will support you, although the empire isn't functioning efficiently, the emperor is greatly loved for all he's done to them. You will be branded traders and also cause your town to be outcast. The emperor also has a large army well equipped with the best but also alliances not only in the country but out. A lot of hateful things stem from war. Even if you were to win, what would you do? There are many flaws to either of you men ascending thrown. Now I want you to think about and for you to not act rash."

I looked at everyone's contemplative face before continuing making sure I had everyone's attention. "You said yourself the only problem that was driving you to do this was the lack of action from the emperor towards the issues in China. And I know you feel that one town can only do so much. Request for help and send the issues and problems to the king."

"We've already tried that!"

"With conclusive evidence? You need to understand politics if you're going to be a part of it. The emperor can't do anything against anyone unless there is something to go on or even better concrete evidence that not make him a tyrannical emperor because that would mean more people against him and only lead to problems. Politically speaking, the government branches are the ones who receive the proposals so it may be in the system but then that just means you need to take initiative and go there yourself."

"We wouldn't be easily accepted."

"Don't worry, I can easily accept you myself but you need evidence for your proposal. You resorting to chaotic violence should have been the last answer but I understand it was only in the hopes to change. If your proposal is brought up with great importance and careful analyzing it will be treated as such."

Sir Fuhei looked at me. I only sighed, these imbeciles. Huh, I haven't used that word in a while and that was with my three boys. Stop Lucy! You're off track here!

"Do you still not trust my words when I give you such insightful advice to address your stupid decisions that you will regret."

This only seemed to anger the rest but curiously Sir Fuhei stayed quiet. Rash comments were soon shouted at me because of my comment but Sir Fuhei raised his hand and they were silenced.

"May I just see your face…...?"

I smiled slightly at his polite demeanor. I reach for my hood and others watch in anticipation. I take off the hood and then the whole cloak, showing off my bright white wings in the process.

Sir Fuhei's eyes widen at the sight and so does the others. The other though automatically bows to the floor at my overwhelming sight and presence.

Sir Fuhei lowers his head before walking towards me and kneeling. "I pledge my allegiance to you, oh holy one. You have guided us and will bring out the prosperity of China. My heart will only stay loyal to you."

I, of course, was shocked at his declaration. I quickly gain composure and use this to my advantage, this way it will be easy to unite China. I nod

"You have to prove to me your allegiance….."

"Of course your holiness."

Honestly I'm like really sorry that you had to wait this long. I have a very demanding life. Well, I will soon update, probably, this and battle scars! It's gonna be spring break! Also there have been copyright problems I guess so beware and please help me out if someone does find my story somewhere else. Thank you
