"Please wait a minute! Wouldn't it be unfair if only the Crown Prince had the right to try his test?"
The voice of the man sitting on the throne instantly stole the attention. The owner of the voice was none other than the First Prince of the Empire, Cyrilo Davide de Levana.
Ashlan smiled, it seems like the Crown Prince's determination is affecting other princes and princesses. Since it was not only Prince Cyrilo, the princesses also exuded the same determination in their eyes. All but one.
"Sure, just do it. Aqua, you can handle them, right?" ask Ashlan quipped.
Aqua was a bit annoyed, all the more troublesome. Without replying to the master, Aqua pulled Ruby's hand slowly and sat her down on the chair carefully. Normally women who needed it like that would be carried away by feeling, but Ruby's expression remained flat. The girl's feelings for Aqua were neither like nor love at all.
After marginalizing Ruby, people stepped aside within a 7m radius.
"Who wants to go first?" ask the Crown Prince to try to be friendly.
Ruby looked at the man a bit coldly.
"You only want to advance last after observing your opponent well and making use of all the possibilities until your chances of winning are high, right?"
It is true that is the Crown Prince's plan. But it can't be done. Because it's...
"Forward first? Don't waste my time. Go at once!" cold Aqua.
"!!!"
Instantly the princes and princesses were burned with anger. Even if it was Prince Vittacelar, wouldn't this be called humiliation?!
"That's also if you can still move after receiving my aura."
"It seems you underestimated us too much!! Even if you are a genius, but fighting against all 5 of us at once is a foolish act," the Crown Prince exasperated.
"Normally I wouldn't agree with him, but this time he was right. Don't underestimate us!!" prince Cyrilo's.
"Let's take the title of genius from this man, Launa!!" the Third Princess, Laura Dakota de Levana.
"Okay, Laura!!!" answer the Fourth Princess, Launa Salma de Levana.
"......."
The second daughter, Selena Deva de Levana did not say anything, this girl was indeed irritable to speak.
As has been explained. The five children who challenged Aqua were Crown Prince Analic, Prince Cyrilo, Princess Selena and Twin Princess Launa Laura. The only son of the emperor who chose to sit quietly in his chair was the First Princess, Ileana Thea de Levana.
Due to the First Princess's actions choosing him, the nobles were gossiping at him from behind. They assumed that this First Princess did not have the slightest ambition, completely fitting her name.
⟨ Abandoned Princess ⟩
"The "neglected daughter. Ironically the nickname was indeed suitable for the First Princess. The Crown Prince had the Emperor, the First Prince and the Second Princess had the Queen, the Third and Fourth Princess had the Empress. However the First Princess. He who was born with the sacrifice of the life of the previous queen was looked coldly at by his brother and his own father. If his biological family just looked at him coldly, let alone stepfamily."
"Actually the Empress had noticed him, but since she had been neglected since she was born, she did not trust anyone and stayed in silence at the end of the princess' palace," Ruby's inner sympathy.
Unlike the sympathetic Ruby or the aristocrats who gossiped about her, what Ashlan and Aqua thought was completely different. But it will be discussed next time.
Aqua was standing right in the middle of those five imperial children. It was strange to think that Aqua was also the son of the Emperor.
"I won't move a bit from here."
Aqua's arrogance was like pouring oil in their coals. Since they were the Imperial Family and were being looked at by the nobles, they could not say rudely now. Though inwardly continue to curse Aqua.
"Experience by one who has strength is not pride, it is Pride" Ashlan smiled.
Ashlan spread her hands forward.
"I'll start the count. One..."
Although slightly inappropriate, the Princes and Daughters pointed their weapons at Aqua and prepared in good horses.
"Two..."
Not to forget they also started to cast spells of various Magic. Starting from reinforcement, defense to attack magic.
"Ti. ga!"
SSWEEEEEEEEENGGGGGGG
"AKHGGGH!!!!!!!"
Suddenly gravity felt so heavy within that 7-meter radius. The five children instantly collapsed without a fight. To move even a fingertip feels very heavy. Like dozens of elephants on top of them.
"What the fuck!? I... can't move...!" his fifth inner shock.
"My breath..."
Right, not just gravity. The flow of mana and air in the area became chaotic. They will definitely have difficulty breathing and whichever spins in their body will be disrupted so that the organs of the body do not function properly.
"HOEKKK!!!"
Some children even vomit blood. No, not just from the mouth. Blood also begins to flow out of the eyes, nose and ears.
Seeing her kids become like that. The emperor tried to stop him. But no time to say, Ashlan's hand held him.
"Don't worry, I'll cure them later."
Aqua took out a luxurious seat from the Inventory amidst the pressure and sat down leisurely. The boy's right hand held his head, one leg on top of the other. With a cold and condescending look, he began to open his mouth.
"Where did your words go?" syndicate Aqua.
"Don't you guys not want to be underestimated and intend to defeat me? But what is this? Don't beat me, you can just move no."
Shame, fear, pressure and anger. Those feelings are mixed up in all of them. To answer Aqua alone they could not. It felt like they could faint at any moment as blood continued and continued to flow out.
"Weak. whereas I only use 10% of my aura," inner Aqua.
In the remnants of his consciousness that started to blur, the Crown Prince could see Aqua looking down on them.
"What... difference in our ability... so far? Is this what people feel when I defeat them in a landslide? An abyss of impassable abilities?"
"Damn it!!!"
If it must be likened, the Princes and Daughters are like standing in front of a solid wall that is so high that they cannot see the end. It turns out that this is what is called...
⟨ Capability Difference ⟩
Not only those who experience it, those who watch also feel the gap of difference. Most young nobles thought, "If the imperial family were to arrive like that, what would happen if I was there?!"
They were trembling in fear in front of the great power. They fear that one day that power will lead to them because Aqua is the fiancee of Rubylia Arsilla. Of course the ones who felt this the most were the Machioness and Nedura Arsilla.
"Enough!! Stop that!!! They won't be able to last much longer!" exclaim Emperor.
Ashlan smiled mockingly.
"But it's not even 1 minute yet, loh."
The emperor clenched his hands tightly.
"No. Stop it. I'm mohoh to you."
"!?"
Everyone was shocked, including Aqua herself. It was unexpected that the Emperor would beg like that. But Ashlan thought it was natural. Because it was seen that the only one who still maintained his consciousness under the aura of Aqua despite being only 1 minute away was the Crown Prince.
"What can I do. Aqua!" exciting Ashlan.
"Good, Master."
It didn't take long for Aqua to retract her aura. Instantly the airflow, mana and gravity returned to normal. The Princes and Princesses could breathe again.
Having already offered to heal them, Ashlan immediately moved to where the Princes and Princesses lay covered in wounds.
"That boy! I know he's getting stronger, but I didn't think it was this drastic. I also know the aura was only a small part, even so it was not an aura that could be held by children at his age. No, even adults will have a hard time."
"I guess I should teach him some common sense next time. Great also the Crown Prince, can survive even if only 1 minute under the aura that can make monsters instantly faint. The other princes and princesses were not bad either, although not as good as him. Really do... This empire continued to give birth to geniuses that surpassed common sense."
From just a single flick of a finger, the princes and princesses instantly recovered instantly by an Epic level light magic. Legend-level light magic upwards could only be used by Saintess and angels alone. So even though Ashlan was the Magic Queen, she could not wear it. But that alone was enough, as Aqua did not injure them that badly to the point of needing a Legend-level light sihri.
Ashlan looked at the disciple with a tired expression.
"But yes, the genius among geniuses born from this Empire is that damn brat."
