1 Prologue

"Congratulations, Celestina! You've finally graduated!" Mr. Gu Fangning said from the back while coming closer to her and slowly tapping her shoulder.

"Thanks, sir!" Celestina said, turning around to see his face.

When she had already seen his face. She smiled widely at him.

"By the way, what will you do in your life since you have already finished college?" He asked and waited patiently for her reply.

"Oh, I don't know. Since I am an orphan, maybe I will go somewhere far away from this country."

The smile suddenly vanished from her face when she realized that she had never experienced having parents. She took a deep breath to make herself calm.

She looked at her professor again with a serious expression on her face.

"Celestina, I know that your life is very vulnerable. You suffered a lot. But I am happy because you still finished your studies independently." He complimented Celestina.

Celestina held her head while she was talking to her adviser.

"I finished my studies for myself. I wanted to have a better future."

After saying this, Celestina began to sit down on the empty chair.

"I would like to reveal my biggest secret to you."

After the Emperor said this, his eyes wandered into the surroundings. He looked at the place repeatedly to ensure that no one could hear their conversation.

When he saw that there was no one around, he sighed and began to open his mouth to continue introducing himself to the pretty girl.

"Celestina, the truth is, I am an Emperor of the Dong Clan."

After hearing his revelation, Celestina burst into laughter. She clapped her hands while looking at the Emperor's face, thinking that he was crazy.

She didn't believe what he said because supernatural men are such a big joke for her. It can only be seen in the dramas, but for God's sake, it's unreal.

"You're a good joker!"

Celestina is now forcing herself to stop laughing so hard because her stomach hurts so much. If she won't stop laughing, maybe she will die.

"I am not joking, Celestina."

The Emperor glared at her seriously.

Celestina felt awkward when she saw the serious face of her teacher. She cleared her throat while covering her mouth with her right hand.

"Okay, tell everything to me. I will try to listen. I won't laugh again, I promise."

After saying this, she showed him that she had zipped her mouth.

He said, "I am an Emperor of the supernatural world."

He showed his power to Celestina to make her believe. When he uses his power, Celestina is amazed. She was stunned when she noticed that he was telling the truth.

"Celestina, since you already finished your studies, I would like to invite you to come to the Dong Clan. Become one of the princesses, since we have known each other for a very long time because we're close friends. So, I would like to make you a member of my family."

Celestina cringed at what he said.

"What the hell! You want to make me a princess or your Empress?" She asked while her eyebrows raised. "I won't marry you just to have a family. Think of our age gap, Mr. Emperor."

Celestina misunderstood what he meant to say, which is why she's now acting so rude.

"I wanted to adopt you. I have a wife, and I only want you to become my daughter."

"Good, then."

After saying this, Celestina hid her face. She's really embarrassed by the way she acted a while ago.

"So, you want to become my daughter?" He asked her again.

"If I can find my Mr. Right there, then I will sacrifice my mortality for him."

Celestina was still hiding her face. The Emperor cleared his throat and grabbed her hand that was covering her face.

"Don't be embarrassed. Don't worry, there are lots of handsome men in the Dong Clan. You can marry whomever catches your attention."

After saying this, he looked into Celestina's glazing eyes.

"I will go with you if there is a handsome man in your realm." She quickly agreed to his offer while smirking at him.

"Celestina, I would like you to marry Zhao Roi. He's the most respected man in our clan."

Celestina nodded. But she's curious to see his face. She's hoping right now to see what Zhao Roi looks like.

"I strongly agree with what you said. But if there's someone that I will meet who's more handsome than him, I will choose the other man."

The Emperor's eyes widened after hearing what she said. She's really unbelievable.

"Woman!" He said in his mind and took a deep breath.

By the way, I can go with you, but I don't want to remember my name if I'm already in your realm. I want to change it forever."

After thinking about the pain that her name caused, she looked at the ground with a very sad expression while holding her face with dropped shoulders.

The Emperor comforted her.

"Okay. I hope you will forget the sorrows that you're feeling. As you enter the portal, you will be known as Gu Muyan, the princess of the Dong Clan. Well, I will tell all of them today that you will come with me tomorrow into our realm. Promise, you will be named Gu Muyan there. If you won't be named Muyan, I will accept death as my punishment."

Celestina nodded and started to believe in his words.

"Thanks, your majesty!" She bowed at him to show her respect.

The Emperor looked at his watch to know what time it was.

"You should go home now. By tomorrow, I will get you to your place early in the morning so that we can go to my realm as soon as possible."

"Wow! Are we going to ride a plane?" Celestina asked out of curiosity.

"No!" He said with a loud tone of voice. "I mean, why would we use an airplane if we can teleport to reach the forest where we can find the passage to the supernatural world?"

"Okay."

This is the only word to which she replied when he said that they were going to do teleportation to go to the forest where the portal is located.

While looking at his face, Celestina yawned because she was exhausted and sleepy.

"Go home now so that you can prepare. See you tomorrow, my child."

Celestina rolled her eyes. After rolling her eyes, she waved at him to say goodbye.

She began to walk slowly to arrive at her boarding house to get her things, and she is now praying to go to the exit area quickly.

While she was walking on their campus, her classmates saw her and called her name. She turned around and saw them running toward her.

"Yes, what?" She asked, raising her left eyebrow.

"Celestina, let's take a picture."

Her popular male classmate is now holding his pocket while waiting for her to agree to take a group picture with her.

"I'm sorry. I can't. There's something that I need to prepare because starting tomorrow I will go to a place that's far away from here."

After saying sorry because she couldn't join them, she showed her classmates a serious expression.

Her classmates' shoulders suddenly dropped. They were sad because they couldn't take a picture with the prettiest girl in their university.

"Maybe we can take a picture next time?" Her classmate asked again.

Celestina is scared to turn down his offer for the second time because, while she glared at his eyes, she knew that they were full of sadness.

"Okay. Let's have a picture for remembrance. But, just once. I really need to pack up my things."

Her classmates nodded. They agreed that Celestina would only allow them to take a picture with her once. Well, having one is better than not having one.

Celestina's classmate quickly grabbed his iPhone Pro Max from inside his pocket below the toga that he was wearing. After grabbing it, he opened the front camera and began to tap the camera button.

After taking the picture. Celestina said goodbye to her classmates. She waved her hands at them.

"Good luck with your lives! I really need to go!"

After saying this, she ran quickly and left them to go to her boarding house.

Finally, she saw the exit area! She smiled and continued to walk.

'Tomorrow I can go to the realm and finally change my identity." She said these words in her mind while slowly passing the exit of their school.
