My little pony:Adventure of Seresia

When Chrysalis awoke from her slumber, the sky had already darkened, and everything around her was quiet. She sat up, stretched comfortably, and then fumbled in the dark to turn on the lamp by her bed. At that moment, she felt completely transformed, as if she had been reborn. Not only did she feel physically relaxed, but her mind was also clear, and her spirit rejuvenated. For a fleeting moment, she even considered leaving everything behind and starting a new life.

"This outfit is quite a treasure. Maybe I should take it with me, or..." After some thought, Chrysalis held the outfit in her hoof, transformed into Twilight's form, and stood in front of the mirror, saying:

"Rarity! I have a gift for you~" As she spoke, Chrysalis changed into Rarity's form, pretending to accept the outfit she had just offered herself, then happily put it on. "Thank you, dear Twilight! I just love this gift!!" After her little self-directed performance, Chrysalis joyfully put on the outfit and headed for the door.

"Good evening, Princess Twilight~" The lights from the dining room caught Chrysalis' attention. As she approached, she found Spike and Twilight inside, enjoying dinner.

"Welcome back, Ambassador!!"

"Meng Yu, come join us~ Would you like some apple pie? I stopped by Applejack's place on the way back, and these are all from her~" Twilight gestured to the large apple pies spread across the table, using her magic to push one toward Chrysalis. "Here, this one's yours. Applejack said it's a little gift in return for the feast from the other day~"

"Ah... Oh~ I'm glad she liked it." After a brief hesitation, Chrysalis quickly responded, accepting the food Twilight had pushed over but not taking a bite.

"By the way, Ambassador, I gave serious thought to what you discussed with me yesterday. I'm more than willing to return the Alicorn Amulet to you. I hope this artifact can serve as a bridge for reestablishing relations between Equestria and Seresia! And I trust you'll be able to keep this dangerous thing safe, Spike~"

"Right away!" Upon hearing Twilight call his name, Spike quickly stood up and disappeared toward the door. A moment later, he returned, flying back with a beautifully wrapped gift box in his hooves.

"We were originally going to give you this surprise tomorrow during the day, since you're usually so busy at night." Spike explained as he hoofed the box to Chrysalis. "But since you're here now, we couldn't keep it hidden any longer. We really appreciate your hospitality, Ambassador Meng Yu!! Those ships are enormous! No wonder you docked so far away. If we hadn't known in advance, we might have thought you were invaders!!"

"Spike!! Don't joke like that. The Ambassador already explained—it was to avoid startling us," Twilight interjected quickly, worried that Spike's bad joke might embarrass the ambassador. "The Ambassador was even thoughtful enough to provide us with plates, taking care of our dining preferences!!"

"As long as you liked it!" Greed flickered in Chrysalis' eyes. She hadn't expected to get her hooves on the amulet so soon. Without hesitation, she grabbed the box and opened it, revealing the highly coveted Alicorn Amulet lying quietly in the center. As her hoof touched it, she felt the immense power contained within and an overwhelming urge to put it around her neck. But remembering Meng Yu's earlier words, Chrysalis resisted the temptation and quickly closed the lid.

"Whoa! Relax, Ambassador. We're not taking it away from you!" Twilight and Spike were both startled by Chrysalis' sudden movement. This was nothing like the composed and dignified Meng Yu they knew. Especially Twilight, who grew concerned upon seeing Chrysalis in that state, fearing she might follow in Trixie's footsteps. Fortunately, she relaxed a bit when Chrysalis shut the box.

"Princess Twilight, I also have a gift for you." Chrysalis said as she approached Twilight.Took out the pendant Feng Chen had given her, offering it to her. "Try it on~ I'm sure you'll love it."

"Oh~ Ambassador, you're far too generous!" Twilight admired the pendant in her hoof, clearly liking the design.

"It really is beautiful!! Ambassador, but I don't think I should accept such a precious gift." Twilight hesitated for a long time, then reluctantly returned the pendant to Chrysalis' hoof. Although she truly wanted the gift, politeness dictated otherwise.

"If Twilight doesn't want it, can I take it??I want to taste—uh, I mean, keep it!!" Spike blurted, showing no hesitation. He had never seen a gem like this before, and its glossy texture made him eager to taste it. Chrysalis frowned as he approached, thinking to herself, "I can't let this pesky little dragon ruin my plan!!"

"I think it's safer with Princess Twilight," Chrysalis said as she hoofed the pendant back to Twilight, who caught on quickly, taking it with perfect timing and placing it around her neck. "Thank you, Ambassador! I’ll take good care of it~"

"Hey!! You just said you didn’t want it!!" Spike grumbled, clearly disappointed he wouldn’t get a chance to taste the unusual gem. Twilight smiled softly and ignored him.

Seeing her plan succeed, Chrysalis smirked slightly. "Princess Twilight, if there's nothing else, I'll be heading back."

"Won't you stay and enjoy some of this apple pie?"

"No, I need to store this away safely to prevent it from falling into the wrong hooves~"

"Alright then~ but do take these pies with you. Let your two attendants have a taste as well." Twilight used her magic to pack up the apple pies and hoofed them to Chrysalis, who reluctantly accepted.

"Make sure to thank Applejack for me," Chrysalis said as she left the dining room, carrying the box and pies. Once she was out of Twilight's sight, Chrysalis returned to Meng Yu’s room. She tossed the apple pies into the trash without a second thought, opened the window to the balcony, and leaped into the dark, disappearing into the night.
