Chapter 26: What it takes to be a good empress.

Three days later.

"Rao, is it really necessary for me to read about the culture of humans?"

Faora asked me, confused. Currently, she and I are in my personal room, we were sitting on my bed in light clothes.

"Yes, I want you to learn about Kryptonian politics, philosophies, history, etc. I want you to study about humans too. "

"Hmm."

I realize that she is still not convinced. "Just record all the information in your brain. You can do that easily, right?"

"... Yes." She said.

I smile a little. I'm slowly training her, I plan on her being an empress in the future. As a future empress, she must know how to look at the big picture of a situation, she must have political knowledge and an elegant attitude, she must know how to plan 100 steps in the future if necessary.

I plan to make her my empress, but of course she doesn't know that yet.

She is not yet ready to take on this role, she has a very 'warrior' attitude. I do not dislike this Faora, but as an empress, she must be an excellent warrior and an excellent governess. I have to change her narrow mentality.

As I watched Faora reading the files I sent at superhuman speed, I was enjoying the feeling of the sun hitting my skin, it was a very comfortable feeling.

"Faora, how is the progress in training for Litha Tob-Lan?" I ask curious.

"She is doing very well. She has endured my torture sessions, she can also follow all the training I plan for her." Faora answered me without looking at me. She was totally focused on what she was learning.

I raise my eyebrow. "Did she come in contact with the yellow sun?"

"At the moment, she has not yet come into contact with the yellow sun. "

... This is a little surprising. Can she handle Faora's torture and training? It seems that I need to reevaluate the value of Litha.

"What do you think of Litha?" I ask Faora.

"She looks like me when I was younger, she is talented. She can become like me in the future. If she continues to grow at this rate, she would be a good general."

I'm surprised by Faora's thoughts about Litha, is that girl that talented? What would happen if she acquired her Kryptonian powers? This is interesting.

I smile a little when I notice something in Faora's words. 'She would be a good general, huh?'

Slowly, she is acquiring the mentality of an empress, this is a good thing.

[My Lord, something happened that requires your attention.] Zero warned me.

I raise my eyebrow. "Let my subordinates know I'm going."

[Yes, My Lord.]

I get up from the bed, when I realize that Faora got up too, I say. "Stay here, I want you to study all the content that I gave you."

"But ..." She is reluctant.

I walk over to Faora, I caress her face and kiss her lightly. "Don't worry, I won't suddenly disappear or anything like that, continue your studies."

"...Okay." She spoke with a reluctant face.

I laugh a little at her cute face, I get up and walk towards my armor.

...

Back in the command chair, I say, "Report!"

"My Lord, we were able to collect a lot of books, confidential information, and human relics. These items are currently being digitized on a crystal codenamed 'Earth.' "

"Good, continue collecting, I predict that this war will last for several years. It will give us enough time to collect items from around the world." I say.

"My Lord, several humans have entered one of the places where our scanners cannot invade." One of my subordinates said.

"Put the recording on the main screen."

Soon I see several German cruisers crossing the protection of Themyscira.

"This recording took place two days ago."

Hmm, these humans are probably dead. I don't think Themyscira is a weak realm, they have the protection of a goddess after all.

"Has anything happened since that event?"

"Yes, two humanoid beings left this place." They reply.

I see a woman and a man leaving Themyscira on a boat. "Oh?" I realized that the woman who went out with the man was the same woman that our scanners managed to capture an image of.

I look at the human next to the woman, and I don't notice anything much about him. He looks like a normal human ... Hmm, wait, he came out alive from an island that is governed only by women, does he have something special? Or did he not die because of that woman who is accompanying him?

"Where are they now?"

"They are in a nation called England."

This is interesting, I need to note this. I don't think that warrior would leave her kingdom if she had no good reason.

"I want a scanner to watch every action this woman does."

"Yes, My Lord."

"Zod, I want you to start preparations to build our city on Mars. I want several crystals containing the design of our Kryptonian buildings, I want the structure of our city ready in three months."

"Yes, My Lord."

Kryptonian technology is based on crystals that can do just about anything. For example: If I take an empty crystal and add information from structures like buildings, houses, etc. when the crystal falls on the soil of a planet, this crystal will immediately transform into these structures.

This was a faster way to set up temporary camps in the wars Krypton was fighting. Kryptonians preferred to use robots to create their homes and buildings, but I think the method using crystals is more efficient.

[A / N: There is little information about Kryptonian technology, because of that, I am creating it from my imagination, I hope it makes sense.]

"Yes, My Lord ... What should I do about your home?" He asked.

Hmm, I hadn't been thinking about it ... My house, huh? I prefer to live in a location that is closest to the sun.

"I want to live in a location that is closer to the sun, you can think of a structure based on these conditions."

Zod thinks for a moment and answers me. "Yes, My Lord."

I get up from the command chair. "Continue your duties, I want to know immediately if something happens to that woman."

I leave the commander's cabin accompanied by only Non, I see that my subordinate is looking around like he's looking for something.

"What's the matter, Non? Why are you looking around like you're lost? "

"My Lord, where's Lieutenant Faora?"

"She is doing a task that I gave her."

"I see." Non sighed as if relieved.

I raise my eyebrow at Non's weird attitude, he's really afraid of Faora, huh?

"Don't worry, Non. Faora will never forget humiliation, she is very vindictive. " I say with a small smile.

Non visibly trembled, he looked at me and said. "My Lord, have mercy on me. I just made a joke, I was tired."

"Have the attitude of a man, Non. Litha, a woman younger than you can take Faora's torture, you as a man should take it too. "

Non's face darkens. "My Lord, Litha is not Kryptonian, she is a monster. How can she withstand Faora's torture?"

"I don't know, she is talented, I think? Or maybe it's her determination that is different. " I speak my thoughts out loud, I look at Non.

"You are the Emperor's shield, you must be resistant to all kinds of attacks and torture, this will be a good lesson for you."

"..... Yes, My Lord."
