WTD Chapter 20

She is very smooth.

What does that mean?

“…”

Ji Lian remained silent for a long time, lost in thought.

She felt an instinctive urge to apologize to her sister.

But Ji Yu Su seemed indifferent to this.

After expressing her gratitude to Ji Lian, Ji Yu Su left the dining room without hesitation.

Leaving Ji Lian sitting alone, looking lost and with a dim gaze.

In the following time, Ji Yu Su would stay in the royal court of this elf palace, overseeing the final tasks after conquering the elf capital.

Then, she could briefly take off her armor and enjoy the life of a normal girl as she wished.

Going to school, studying, making friends.

Beyond that, she was uncertain.

Perhaps she would take it step by step.

This was the request she made to her father after conquering the Western God’s Temple.

Her father, or rather, the head of the Ji family, agreed to the girl but not entirely.

He set a condition.

“Conquer the elf capital, Fericis, bring back the crown belonging to the Elf King for our Empress.”

“Then, my child, you can have everything you desire.”

So, the Elf capital fell.

Ji Yu Su, nurtured as the empire’s strongest weapon and bearing the title “Moon of the Empire,” had been unbeatable on the battlefield, earning remarkable achievements.

Now she was about to reap a life that belonged to an ordinary girl.

The reason her father and the Empress readily fulfilled the terms of the agreement was, in reality, because the expansion of the Eastern Empire was happening too quickly; it was time to pause and digest the gains.

Greed could lead to indigestion.

After the digestion, the empire’s strength was destined to rise to a new level.

At that point, the entire world might have nothing to stop the Empress from continuing her great legacy for generations.

Not long after, Ji Yu Su welcomed the best doctor in Fericis.

It was an elegant elf woman, her tear-filled eyes reflecting colors of despair.

Even though Ji Yu Su’s beauty was considered unparalleled even by the picky standards of elves.

“…”

Am I really that fearsome?

Ji Yu Su silently pondered in her heart.

Sherya clearly liked her very much.

She didn’t know how she arrived at this conclusion.

But if it were Ji Yu Su, she probably could never be associated with “ordinary and confident.”

She was unparalleled and self-assured.

As if everything in the world should bend to her will.

“I would like to inquire, how can muteness be cured?”

Ji Yu Su asked seriously, a rare occurrence.

The elf female physician visibly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the question.

At least, it wasn’t to shame or kill her…

That was a relief.

“P-please specify, which type of muteness are you referring to, esteemed… Lady Conqueror.”

“Congenital, or caused by some incident later in life?”

Ji Yu Su raised an eyebrow, wondering about the peculiar title.

Clearly, the girl was unaware that she, now among other races, was more renowned than the Empress of the Eastern Empire.

Ji Yu Su was referred to as the “Conqueror.”

Some even coined famous phrases in her style — “I came, I saw, I conquered.”

“Congenital, and it’s an elf condition.”

Ji Yu Su answered truthfully.

However, the plain and beautiful elf female physician visibly gasped.

“I am sorry, Lady Conqueror!”

“This situation is beyond my capabilities to resolve!”

“Why?”

“Because, because…” The female physician’s heart raced nervously.

“In the elf race, congenital muteness has never been cured, and I am powerless in this regard.”

“These elves are called ‘Heaven’s Deficiency’ among us, losing the qualification to resonate with magic, destined to live a regrettable life…”

The elf physician wore an expression of regret and sympathy.

However, she was curious. Why did the ruthless “Conqueror” suddenly inquire about the matter of “Heaven’s Deficiency”?

But the only certainty was.

She couldn’t be consulting with me to cure a mute elf!

After all, in the eyes of these… these Eastern people.

Whether elves or other races, aren’t they considered no different from livestock or beasts…

They are all regarded as failures, subject to enslavement and abuse.

Only she, possessing precious medical skills and willing (or forced) to treat injured soldiers from the Ji family in war, managed to avoid terrible treatment.

Suddenly, the elf female physician’s pupils trembled.

She seemed to understand why Ji Yu Su was inquiring about “Heaven’s Deficiency.”

Certainly, among the elf captives, there might be someone born mute, and Ji Yu Su wanted to extract information about the escaped elf royal family from them!

Now, the female physician felt relieved.

Fortunately, she doesn’t possess that ability; otherwise, she might have become a traitor to the royal family.

In fact, even if the female physician had such ability, she would likely have concealed it.

Although the elf royal family escaped from the elf capital, Fericis, the elf citizens still believed in their kings, considering it a temporary measure forced upon the royal family. 

They believed that one day, the royals would return to save their people and repel the detestable invaders.

Until then, all they could do was wait and endure.

Ji Yu Su’s gaze slightly lowered, staring at a certain spot on the table in front of her, as if she were looking at nothing.

The elf female physician felt as if she were standing on a bed of needles, struggling to breathe under the pressure emanating from the “Conqueror” Ji Yu Su.

And at that moment, something incredible, or perhaps a misperception, caught her attention…

Ji Yu Su, the “Moon of the Impire”…

Actually sighed!?

“Well, let me change the question.”

Ji Yu Su lifted her enchanting and stunning face, looking at the elf female physician who was now sweating with nervousness.

“Lady Doctor, are you married? Is your spouse a male elf or a female elf?”

Among the elves, although they lacked the somewhat twisted technological advancements of the Eastern Empire that allowed reproduction between females, the elves, due to their naturally long lifespans, were known for their openness.

Not only relationships between male and female elves but even unions between female elves and female elves, or elves and orcs, received the blessings of some elf communities.

In the eyes of the ideologically conservative Eastern people of the Eastern Empire, this was unimaginable, terrifying, and a collapse of societal norms!

So, elves like them needed to be restrained and reformed according to the orthodox ideology of the empire!

This was one of the official reasons the Eastern Empire declared war on the elf nation.

“…” 

The physician’s charming face instantly turned red.

However, not daring to resist the female general, she could only endure the shame and whisper like a mosquito.

“My spouse… is a female elf.”

Ji Yu Su’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Well, that’s perfect.”

“Can you teach me what women do together in bed?”
