The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 216: Awaken your wisdom.

The head mage said nothing in response but the air grew colder with each rude remark the princess made. Thalassa was a fool because she was yet to realize just how much she was angering the Lord mage.

"I always thought that your company was boring and unbearable but I never thought that I would find other things to dislike you..."

"Shut up Thalassa." Sigrid intervened. Her voice was loud and ominous. "You are an ungrateful person that bites the very hand that feeds her. You may have awakened your magic but you have yet to awaken your wisdom. It would do you well to listen to the words of the Lord mage."

"What do you know you simple noble?" Thalassa thrust harsh words that she hoped would hurt Sigrid. "I am of royal blood, I do not have to listen to him or you. Just because you were wise enough to scheme your way into my brother’s bed does not mean that you are queen of wisdom."

She pulled herself up off the bed and continued, "There will be some changes around here. I will be in charge and you....you either get on board or stay away from the affairs of all Eldorian mages."

"I am afraid that you will be disappointed child." The Lord mage murmured. "You have no knowledge on magic or mage affairs. I would advise you to advise your attitude, apologize and heed my reminder. Beware, your magic is unnatural, if you wield it with a dark heart, one day it will turn against you."

Thalassa scoffed in response and she said to him, "I have I came for. My father is going to reward you heavily for what you have done for me. Do not try to use this awakening to leverage me in any way. I owe you nothing."

Ignoring the advice of the Lord mage and Sigrid, Thalassa left the room and the mage estate, disappearing into the snow in her carriage that was pulled by magical horses. The tree people she left in the tower watched from a window until she left and then they spoke.

"It was a mistake to give her the gift." Alistair said. His low voice dripped with hidden anger and disappointment. Magic was something he considered precious, a gift that that one ought to cherish. Thalassa did not cherish the gift. To her, magic was a means to an end.
