Chapter 1041: Emperor In A Hurry

"Are you kidding? You're about to be coronated? It's time, Your Majesty! Get up and get ready! You can't be absent to your own coronation."

"Sia, five minute please~" Varian rolled over the bed and pulled up the sheets, refusing to open his eyes.

Enigma stared at Varian with exasperation.

Since Sia and Sarah made the rule to not 'meet' him until marriage  it, she had to step in and manage this unruly guy. But who knew he could be this stubborn?

Enigma could see that Varian was genuinely exhausted for some reason. He's totally in sleep and his subconscious treated her as Sia.

'I heard that he put off all official work since two days and has gone somewhere. What did he do to get so tired?' Enigma frowned at his exhausted face and wondered.

She usually saw that look Sarah and Sia after their 'session' with Varian.

'But he wasn't meeting up with Sia and Sarah, so he wasn't doing anything s-sexual.' Enigma blushed before she shot him a glare.

'Wait a minute, even if he did something sexual, he's not the one that'd get exhausted. Poor Sia rested for three days before she could walk properly. This guy is a beast in human skin!'

Varian felt cold for some reason and pulled the sheets tighter. If he only knew his reputation was faced with such serious slander, he'd have sacrificed his sleep and defended his actions.

Seeing him curling himself in the sheets tightly, Enigma wanted to pull them off. But before she could say anything, his exhausted expression caused her to stop.

'He seems so vulnerable.'

When Abyss Emperor was thrashing Sia and Sarah to near-death, they both fell unconscious. But Enigma was conscious and saw it all.

She saw the breakdown of Varian's mental saw, the pain in his eyes, the helplessness shaking his soul.

Enigma understood him deeper than even she realized. She knew why his soul was in pain.

'He doesn't want to feel helpless like he did that night. It's his scar. Even if the relationship between us became normal, his scar will remain forever.'

Enigma bit her lip and tugged at the sheet as her usual cold voice mellowed down. "I gave you three hours already. Anymore, we'll run the risk of the ceremony going late."

"Mhm, please, my whole body is aching. Five more minutes~" Varian mumbled in his sleep.

Enigma's comm flashed and she got a message from Blue Flash. 'There's only one hour left!'

"Haa~" Enigma sighed and pulled his sheets hard.

"No." Varian's power pulled it back instinctively and took her along with it.

Thud.

Enigma landed beside Varian and felt his arm wrap around her.

"V-Va--"

She was pulled into a hug with her head resting against his chest.

Whenever Sia tried to wake him up during their school days, Varian was used to doing this to shut her up. Unconsciously, he did it again. And it worked and shut Enigma down.

'I...' Enigma indifferent expression crumbled as she her cheeks heated up and her heart pounded. His warmth surrounded her as he wrapped her in a protective hug.

It's just too intimate for Enigma. She wanted to resist but her body didn't cooperate. Instead, she closed her eyes and listened to his heartbeat.

'Hugging me on your wedding day, you rascal.' She cursed him but her arms went around his waist and hugged him tighter.

It was only when her comm rang again that Enigma jumped out of his hug and looked around, flustered.

'There's thirty minutes left! For Heaven's sake, don't tell me the Emperor is going to miss his own coronation?'

Enigma opened her mouth wide at a sudden realization. 'I stayed like that for 30 minutes?'

"Focus, thirty minutes is still good. Just have to speed run everything." Enigma didn't even bother pulling the sheets, she snapped her fingers and a hand of darkness shredded them to pieces.

Then, she threw Varian into bathroom and poured a bucket of special freezing water on him. It could've frozen a level 8 to instant death.

But Varian rubbed his eyes and yawned. "...Turn off the AC. It's a bit col--Woah! Enigma!"

Varian exclaimed at the woman whose face was merely inches away from his own. But that didn't stop him from saying. "Don't tell me you're going to wake me up with a morning kiss?"

"Very funny, Mr. Emperor who's about to miss his own coronation." Enigma said with an indifferent face.

"Coronation, hm, oh, wait," Varian's eyes widened and he quickly checked the time.

With his clothes flying into the air, he jumped into the large hot bath as he yelled. "Why didn't you wake me up? I trusted you, Enigma! Out of all people, I--"

"Shut up!" Enigma retorted with a stiff face as she turned around before she could see anything that shouldn't be seen.

"I'll be ready in twenty. My time power should help." Varian's voice came from behind.

'You're the only one who uses time power for these things.' Enigma didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But anyways, Varian kept his word and appeared in the eight floor in less than twenty minutes.

As he descended into the eighth floor, a few professional maids came up and sorted out the last bits of his attire.

Varian proffered a simple white and black dress but the ceremony didn't allow such casualty.

He's adorned in a smooth and elegant white overcoat that covered his torso and flowed down to his knees. It fitted nicely over his jet black shirt and pants, contrasting and complementing. The shirt was adorned with ruby buttons and embroidered with special insignia made of rare threads.

Draped over his shoulders was a golden robe, painted with the symbols of the Human Alliance, Human Federation and the Human Empire.

He had neither a crown nor a scepter. Varian rejected them when they first came up. Instead, he had a sword sheathed at his waist.

"Long Live the Emperor!"

"Glory To the Human Emperor!"

"Glory! Glory! Glory!"

The maids knelt on the ground and started sobbing, their muffled cries filled with cheers.

Varian gave them a helpless look and stepped down into the Throne Hall as the ceremony neared its critical point.
