Vidlin checked his pocket watch from time to time, his brow already furrowed.

Lin Mo had been eating for over an hour. It wasn't that he minded how much she ate, but why hadn't the drug taken effect yet? Shouldn't she be getting sleepy by now?

Why was the Empress still so energetic?

But, wasn't the Empress eating a bit too much? Her little mouth hadn't stopped for the past hour. The two pastry chefs were beyond explaining; they were numb, unable to keep up with the Empress's appetite!

Oh, it seemed like she was full.

Lin Mo patted her round little belly, humming twice. What to do, she didn't want to move. She just wanted to sleep right here… so tired.

Or, should she just have Kaka fly her back? Although that might expose her ability to fly, and then nothing fun might ever find her again.

According to the memories in Hawke's mind, anyone on this continent who could fly without external assistance was a top-tier powerhouse.

Forget it, she'd just have another glass of juice.

The maid seemed to have been waiting for a long time. Seeing Lin Mo reach out, she immediately handed over the glass in her hand.

"Hm? Thanks for your trouble."

"...No, it's nothing. Serving you is this servant's honor."

"Mm." Casually responding, Lin Mo raised the glass to her lips. Sigh, not drinking it was just for show.

This glass of juice was spiked. It was obvious that Vidlin couldn't hold back and wanted to drug her again.

Lin Mo wasn't stupid. Although no one could get close to her, if she really lost control and did something undignified in front of all these people, then this planet would no longer need to exist.

So, this stuff absolutely couldn't be drunk.

Narrowing her eyes, she happened to see the sad-looking Little White. Ahem, here it came.

"Little White, come here!"

"Awoo!" (Human! You finally remembered me!)

Why are you pulling me? Stop pawing at me, I'm afraid my Empress will misunderstand, get lost!

Hmph, you're sensible. I'll reluctantly not complain about you to the Empress.

"Awoo~" (Empress, I missed you so much! Wuwuwu, that princess is too scary!)

"Little White, be good, don't be afraid. Come, drink some juice to calm your nerves." (￣w￣)

"Awoo?" (For me? Then, then I won't be polite!)

You're such a good person! Demon human, I wronged you! Don't worry, I, Little White, am still a member of the Snow Wolf royal family, hahaha, I'll protect you from now on!

Oh ho, the human's water is so good, sweet.

Vidlin had now come up behind Lin Mo, his face gloomy, but he still squeezed out a smile, "What's wrong, Your Majesty? Is there something we haven't taken care of properly? Are you dissatisfied with the chefs in my estate, or..."

"Oh, Vidlin, you're here. It's nothing. Don't you think Little White is cute? What's wrong with drinking some juice?"

After saying that, she winked playfully.

"It's nothing, Your Majesty is happy. Someone, bring the Empress another cup."

"I'm not drinking anymore. I want to go back, Duke Vidlin. It's very late today, and I'm a little tired." Lin Mo yawned, smacked her lips, and felt a little bored.

A hint of joy flashed across Vidlin's eyes. So, her drug resistance was too high? These magicians were such a hassle.

Vidlin was happy, but the sweat on Hawke's forehead was already profuse. What to do? The Empress's words clearly meant she was nudging him about why he hadn't made a move yet, but weren't there a few too many people right now? This wasn't how assassinations were done!

Gritting his teeth, he thought, forget it. He had only gotten this far because of the Empress's power. As long as he pleased the Empress, everything else would be easy! The Great Empire was nothing.

"Then Your Majesty can move to the room prepared for guests by your subordinate. In order to welcome your esteemed presence, your subordinate has specially made a bedroom just like the Black King's Palace."

Lin Mo's expression was strange. Was this person stupid? Wasn't he openly telling her that he was preparing to rebel?

Vidlin clearly realized that he had misspoke. "It's nothing, Your Majesty can rest there for a while."

"Mm, no rush. There's still a good show that hasn't started yet, don't rush. By the way, Duke Vidlin, do you like me?"

"Ah! Yes, your subordinate was already..."

"Mm, but why hasn't it started yet? I'm sleepy."

Spoiled by Kaka, Lin Mo's schedule was very regular, never staying up late.

"Ah?! What did you say?" Vidlin was a little confused. It wasn't quite what he had imagined. The Empress had initiated the topic, so how had he suddenly diverged? She hadn't answered him yet!

Just as Vidlin was about to inquire further, there was a loud thud.

A tall man in ornate robes was knocked directly into the banquet hall, struggled twice, and then kicked the bucket.

"Oh! Wonderful!" She picked up her teacup. The juice looked more and more attractive, as if it tasted very good…

She took a sip. Mm, not bad.

The mellowness of the milk, mixed with the sweet fruit particles, the nobles really knew how to enjoy themselves.

Mm? This cup looked familiar…

This seemed to be that, which miraculous potion? Wait! What had she done?! She couldn't drink anymore!

But, munching on some melon seeds while watching a show, it was really hard to make her mouth stop…

Sigh, what kind of toxicity could some little things made by natives have? She was the Empress, the Empress who ruled over who knew how many little ones.

Hmph, and it was mixed with juice, so nothing would happen.

One more sip.

Mm, not too rich, not too bland, the mixture was just right. She unconsciously leaned completely against the backrest, wanting another sip.

Sure enough, her body didn't change at all. Haha, these natives were really inferior.

Completely relieved, the third sip, the fourth sip. Mm, this chef couldn't die. She would have to use parasite larvae to control him and have him research delicious drinks for her 24 hours a day!

Sigh, why did they have to add the drug to this? What a waste of heavenly resources. She hadn't even carefully tasted it when she drank the first sip, damn it!

Coming back to her senses, Lin Mo had already finished drinking it, but it seemed that the fighting had only just begun.

Kaka timely handed over melon seeds to his Empress.

"Oh, thanks for your trouble, Kaka."
