The Male Empress | Haikyuu [Omegaverse Historical AU]

01 | The Order for Concubines

I promised you guys that I'd show a map of the Ryu Continent, so here it is!!

I just used a fantasy map generator and then drew random squiggly lines to make the map look better lol

If you're wondering what Hakuryu is even though there's 6 empires only, it'll be tackled on during the next few chaps.

Also, quick note:

Koshaku = Duke
Hakushaku = Count
Shishaku = Viscount

The rooster crows at dawn, performing its daily duty of waking the whole palace up. Unfortunately for the rooster, 6 men were aready up

"What's taking the Emperor so long?" The Commander of the Azure Knights, Kuroo Tetsurou, tapped his foot impatiently, his boots clacking on the wooden floor. He was growing more impatient by the second. "If he was going to make us wait this long, he should've just scheduled the meeting during the afternoon! It's literally the crack of dawn!"

"Hey, quit your yapping, you stupid cat!" Seiryu's Koshaku, Iwaizumi, yells from the other side of the table. "If the Emperor said to gather at dawn, we gather at dawn."

"That is correct, Koshaku." The Imperial Stategist, Ushijima, quipps, a calm look on his face as he sat straight. He only observed the things happening in the meeting room while occasionally joining in the conversation.

"Commander Kuroo has a point, though." Shishaku Koganegawa was sitting at a 45-degree angle, slouching far down his chair. His bottom felt painful from how long he was seated on the bamboo chair.

Advisor Osamu suddenly bursts in through the door, raking his eyes over the whole room quickly. "Is all of the Kazoku complete?"

"Complete, Advisor Miya." Hakushaku Matsukawa replies curtly. Advisor Osamu stands by the sliding door, whispering something to the ear of the knights guarding outside.

"The Kazoku are complete! The Imperial Emperor is entering!" The knights state outside opening the doors to reveal the emperor in his blue yogi kimono, holding his azurite smoking pipe.

"Rise and bow to the Emperor." Advisor Osamu makes the Kazoku stand, all of them bowing in front of the Emperor. He was worn down and looked as if he had a permanent frown on his face.

"May glory befall the sun of Seiryu! Welcome, your Imperial Majesty." They all state in unison to greet the Emperor

"Sit down. Let's get straight to the point." The Emperor sits himself down with a plop, sighing loudly as he massaged the area between his eyebrows. Advisor Osamu stands beside the Emperor. "That bitch of an Empress of this country fled."

"Shall we appoint one of your concubines as the Empress-to-be?" The Imperial Knights doctor, Kenjiro, suggested with a deadpan look on his face. Atsumu only scoffs in return.
