Rise of the Cosmic_Emperor

The first thing Hal felt was intrigue.

Why would an Imperial consort call him into her chambers?

Surely, it couldn't be to simply stare at his face, could it?

"What's your name?" The imperial consort asked.

Hal smiled lightly while he bowed low to show his respect but the Consort was quick to caution the act,

"Stand up straight" she ordered.

Hal indeed stood up straight as he formally introduced himself,

Trying to ignore that his line of sight as he did so was looking directly into the Consort's fairly exposed cleavage that would have had clear effects on his anatomy had he not been in better control of himself.

He quickly directed his eyes to her face though but that would have hardly helped as she was quite a beautiful woman. Well deserving of being a member of the Emperor's Harem of an inner court.

"Hal, my name is Hal"

The consort seemed in better control of her body now as compared to how she had been when they had first met.

At the very least, Hal could not notice any twitching that would announce the occurrence of an orgasm.

When the consort spoke, there was a kind of authority to her words that was to be expected since her status in the Emperor's inner court was one of significant importance.

If that importance was only because she was mother to the first prince or for other matters was left to be seen.

"You look good for a Doxon. I guess that was to be expected with you being the Blue witch's son but still... You surpass all expectations" the consort said with a knowing smile.

As much of an ego boost as her words were to Hal, he still furrowed his brows in response to all she had said as a whole.

He opened his mouth to speak but the consort interrupted him,

"Don't bother trying to deny it. I asked for your name to see if you would lie to me. I knew who you were before you even stepped foot in the Imperial palace... The second time.

It would be remiss of me not to find out after our... unique first meeting."

Her tone remained fairly natural, excluding the break in her sentence, and Hal felt she made sure to keep it natural with the thought that he had had no knowledge of her climaxing at the sight of his face.

Hal said nothing and merely kept his attention on her face. Specifically her oh-so-kissable lips as she continued.

"Besides, with the news of your identity now circulating the Doxon Duchy..."

"What was unique about our first meeting?" Hal interrupted her suddenly to ask.

"What?" The consort was put off by his question.

"What was so special about our first meeting?" Hal asked again and took a bold step towards the sitting consort with a smile on his lips.

"Well..." The consort began but Hal once again interrupted her while holding her gaze with his sapphire blue eyes.

"As far as I remember in terms of our first meeting, you passed, I bowed, you stopped, asked me to raise my head, and then left. Did something else happen... besides all this?" He asked.

The consort paused and her cheeks became slightly flushed while Hal took two bold steps closer while she now began to squirm on her seat.

'What is with me? Get a hold of yourself, Andrea' the consort berated herself while Hal continued to ask with his smile now turned into a smirk,

"Exactly why am I here? Why did you invite me into your chambers?" He asked with one more step before Andrea thrust a finger at him,

"Not another step!" She said and Hal stopped moving but his smirk remained ever-present.

'Damn it" Andrea thought.

Hal chuckled in his mind.

He was fairly certain the Consort's reason for 'inviting' him into her chambers must have gone further than simply wanting to see his face.

She probably had something important to take about and starting with the revelation that she knew of his identity was evident of a well laid out approach to said important matter.

First off, the fact that she knew who he was did not actually have that much of an effect on Hal. While he did not like to be associated with the Doxons, at least until he could make the family as a whole his bitch, that did not mean it was something to be ashamed of.

Nor was it something to be persecuted for.

Secondly, since he could not be persecuted for being part of one of the most powerful families in the Haron continent and could not possibly be persecuted fur bringing a consort pleasure from simply being handsome, which was something she clearly did not wish to remember or acknowledge, it stood to reason that the reason he was here was related to Tanya Haron.

After all, he had been there the two times he had been in the imperial palace which was not really hidden information.

The consort probably had him brought in in an attempt to question him on what Tanya was after.

Choosing to establish her dominance and authority with a bunch of preambles that in the end, did not actually aid her course.

Especially a mention of their 'unique meeting' which Hal had taken advantage of in a bid to turn the tables.

"You were in the Dreg Duchy during the last few days, were you not?" She asked Hal, now preferring to speed things along and releasing a sliver of her two-star cosmic saint pressure to aid her in her questioning.

Hal felt the pressure but did his best to ignore it as he said,

"Maybe. What makes you think I was?" He asked.

"I am Andrea Dreg. Sister of the current Dreg Duke. It stands to reason that I have contacts in the Duchy capital that can verify your presence in the Duchy and even go further to verify you approaching the Silver moon sect." The consort said with a smirk.

The slip of Hal's smile made her overconfident.

Hal remained quiet as he had a feeling Andrea was not yet done and indeed, she was not,

"Exactly what were you doing in the Dreg Duchy or more accurately, what were you doing in the Silver moon sect?

What did Tanya want in the Silver moon sect?" Andrea asked.

Hal sighed,

"Nothing, I would assume since I have no idea what the princess' interests are. It's not like we know each other on a personal level. We're not buddies.

As for me, I went to Solver moon sect to look into my future" he said.

"Look into your future?" Andrea asked and chuckled at how absurd his words were.

"Of course! The future is so uncertain. Will my dreams come true? Will I ever find love? It's a lot to process and I needed guidance" Hal said and took two more steps closer to her before she could say a word and she began to squirm even harder on her seat.

'What the hell is wrong with me?' Andrea thought.

Only with this young man had she ever lost control of her body so badly.

Not even the Emperor had ever had such an effect on her.

When she thought to repel him with her cultivational pressure, Hal released his pheromones that instantly permeated the area of her chambers they were in and she quickly breathed it in, causing her body to heat up.
