Rise of The Anti God

Chapter 246 Is There Any Problem?

Hearing her authoritative voice, Wilson and Calissa cowered. This was the power of the voice of the second most important figure in the empire.

Despite being a princess and a woman, they knew for some mysterious reason, her skills, status, and power were way off the charts compared to a normal princess.

They also knew how much importance the emperor gave her, and even the grand elders would give as much respect and importance to her just as they would to the emperor.

When Reva was born, they decided to subtly ask the emperor to let one of their children wed Reva so as to form a stronger bond between them.

But before they could even ask, the emperor already announced that Reva was a child blessed by the heavens and that no one in the Rising Sun Continent was worthy of having her hand.

That announcement made all the top families that wanted to propose an alliance shrink their heads and go back disappointed.

They wondered if the emperor was planning for Reva to live her life as a spinster forever. It was the first time ever they were hearing such a thing and was not something that ever happened in the long history of the Rising Sun Continent.

They wondered what was so special about Reva other than being the emperor's daughter. They wondered if the emperor as a father felt that no men deserved her or for some other reason.

However, only when they met her after she grew up did they feel an otherworldly aura from her and felt that she indeed was special, especially when they witnessed her cultivation rising fast enough to make their eyes pop out.

And seeing how the others in the palace respected her to the point of reverence, they knew she was not just a figurehead but the most powerful princess in the Rising Sun Continent.

Even the crown prince got overshadowed by her mysteriousness and power. They wondered if the emperor was planning to make her the Empress in the future, but then if that was the case, she would be titled as the crown princess.

But still, that didn't mean the crown prince was a nobody but the most eligible bachelor in the whole continent. If it weren't for Reva, he would have been the most powerful youngster on the entire continent.

After all, despite being twenty-one years old, his cultivation was at the first level of the Sky Ethereal Realm.

He was also a final-year Elite disciple in the Xeton Ethereal Foundation and the most well-known genius prince among the other royals of other empires as well.

And this was exactly why Reva and Leon were astonished by Damien's combat prowess because just before the moment he sent that lightning sword towards Roy, his ethereal strength did surpass that of the crown prince!

Wilson and Calissa felt tongue-tied hearing Reva's strident question, and all their loftiness and anger they carried on their faces deflated like a punctured balloon.

Obviously, had it been Damien in Roy's shoes and Damien asked for justice, they wouldn't even bat an eye at him and tell him that he brought it upon himself to accept the friendly spar, and it was natural that one can suffer such injuries in a spar or that Damien was too weak to endure a normal blow from Roy.

However, after a brief moment of silence, Wilson replied in a respectful tone, "But Your Highness, one should show a certain degree of respect based on one's status. We are coming from the same ancestry, and showing such disrespect by humiliating that person and dealing him a violent and severe blow is not right. This was meant to be a friendly spar, so shouldn't Damien show some restraint?"

Wilson and Calissa were in the Xeton Ethereal Foundation to have an audience with Leon Xeton to discuss certain things when they heard that he would only return later.

They also decided to visit the arena to see their future in-laws' performance and whether the newly arrived super-geniuses were indeed as powerful as the rumors were.

But when they reached, they were surprised to see a charred body being taken away and upon closer look noticed that it was Roy Clive!

They also heard that Dennisa ended up in a sorry state but not as bad as Roy other than having the word 'BITCH' marked on her forehead with her own blood.

Even though Roy and Dennisa weren't their children or anything, they were still the fiances of their children, and if such humiliating things happened to them, then it was a loss of face for them as well.

They immediately rushed towards the arena, and seeing Damien and Valentina hugging happily like lovers, they clenched their fists in anger and roared at them.

They were shocked to see that Roy and Dennisa lost to juniors who were weaker than them and so pitifully at that, especially after sensing Damien and Valentina's cultivation levels.

Damien's cultivation was so drastically lower than Roy's that they wondered if he used some underhanded means to defeat Roy. Otherwise, they couldn't in the slightest imagine how Damien managed to defeat Roy.

In Valentina's case, even if it was shocking as well, they found it more believable compared to Damien's. After all, they heard Valentina could go invisible and use very powerful attacks, which itself might have allowed her to cross two or three levels or get the drop on Dennisa by surprising her.

However, they only thought that because they hadn't personally seen Valentina knocking out Dennisa with a single punch. Still, they were pissed-off about it and decided to talk it out with her master to get some benefits.

But they didn't expect Leon Xeton and Reva to be here and stop them from castigating Damien.

The audience was passing around heated whispers as they felt that something big might be going down and Damien was going to be in trouble.

They were getting excited seeing the drama happening and even tried to call some of their friends who were too lazy to watch the match.

"Hmph, I knew there would be consequences for beating such important geniuses like this, especially frying senior brother Roy's clothes."

"But it seems like the headmaster might defend Damien and look even Her Highness has joined in, probably to defend her disciple."

"Aaah, I would gladly die just to see a goddess defend for me. Damn it, if I had been in her class, I am sure I would be her favorite student instead of Damien. He just got lucky."

"Yeah, you wish. Junior brother Damien is a thousand times better than you. Aww, look at how handsome and charming he is. If he even winks at this senior sister, I would gladly fall at his feet. He is my lightning prince."

"The Lightning Prince? Hmm, good name for my dream man. But he will forever be unobtainable because of that pink-haired goddess hugging him. Sigh...just my luck. I wish I were as beautiful as her."

Meanwhile, hearing Wilson's reply, Reva said in a cool voice, "Then do you mean that just because Roy's status is higher than Damien, he is allowed to do anything? We have rules in place here, and those rules are impartial to all, no matter who. If we give way to people with status, then won't these rules become a joke? Damien has broken no rules, and instead, as Headmaster Leon said, he showed mercy by holding back most of his power. Otherwise, Roy would have ended up in a far worse situation you can't even imagine. We witnessed with our own eyes itself, and so are you questioning our authority?"

Wilson and Calissa's expressions became ugly upon hearing Reva's stern words, and they wondered if she was really this scary always.

They didn't know what to do and felt even more hesitant to retort Reva. They wondered if they should gather the patriarchs of the Clive and Rivers Family as well and raise this topic before the emperor together.

They also didn't feel good about approaching the emperor for such mundane things as they knew the emperor rarely cared about these things, and most of the time, he was busy with some other matters.

With a sideways gaze, they looked at Damien and Valentina, looking at them with squinted eyes. They felt that if they went back without even getting the chance to chastise Damien, they would lose face.

"Is there any problem here?" Suddenly a young man's gentle voice sounded out from behind them.
