NoGift
She's a known genius of the 31st century. But due to humans' endless greed, she was forced to end her life. The moment she decided to die, she already accepted that it would be the end. But miraculously, she survived and woke up in a completely different world. A world filled with magic and creatures that she thought only existed from myths and legends. The people there have abilities called 'Gifts'. There's only one problem tho. She's now inhabiting a different body. And that body belongs to a... young duke?

INVITATION FROM THE EMPRESS
AURUM looked up at the jade pillars and golden tiled roof and she just couldn't help but let out a long sigh. The building in front was Fenghua Palace - the official residence of the Empress of Xing. Yesterday, a eunuch from this palace sent a personal invitation from the Empress inviting Aurum for an afternoon tea. The eunuch personally saw her happily eating snacks with Madame Lin. So they couldn't use the same ruse that she wasn't feeling well to decline the invitation. Thus, this situation.
She came here with two maidservants lent by Madame Lin, one of them was the madame's most trusted servant - Zi Yu. Her brother couldn't come with her because men we're not allowed inside the Imperial Harem. Unless if you're the Emperor, or his sons, or a eunuch. Aurum was not afraid to meet the Empress on her own. She just didn't want this to be another repeat of that shitty tea party.
