Chapter 90
"You!" Davis was taken aback as he never thought that Ellia would play a cruel joke on him .
To him, it might be a cruel joke, but to her, it was about changing her way of life .
Instead of clinging to him like a leech and acting like a fake friend, why shouldn't she take the initiative to strive forward and be equal with him, was her thought .
Davis hid his face with his palms while he felt embarrassed for assuming that she was a girl like every other greedy girl .
'I should've known better . ' He was initially testing her when he said that he would grant her freedom . He wanted to know that if it was okay for him to support her . Though it was unfair to her, he felt insecure about his bond with her . Now, he was sure that he would wholeheartedly be able to support her, without any second thoughts .
He then clapped, "Alright, I have a gift for you, let's go to the Main Arena . "
"Gift?" Ellia eyes widened with glee .
"Yes, it's there . You will like it very much . Also, it will make you feel relaxed . " Davis nodded his head as he grinned .
They then approached the Main Arena with energetic steps .
. . .
"This had been a long wait! Seems like the ship had arrived on the Island . It's about time we start the final round . " Emperor Ashton raised his voice for everyone to hear .
The audience clamoured with fervour as they could see the final competition that would be packed with heroic elites, battling each other intensely .
The geniuses, who were waiting for the final competition felt fired up as it was finally their time to shine .
"Oh, looks like the participants who passed the second round are entering the arena . " A random person shouted upon noticing a few people dressed in different types of clothes, enter the arena .
Everyone turned to look at them, nodding their heads in satisfaction . Each and one of those contestants looked like a battle-hardened veteran, with sufficient bearings of an elite .
While some looked easy-going, one could say that their outer appearances were deceiving .
Time passed slowly as the participants entered the arena, looking around the arena with a passionate light in their eyes .
Emperor Tritor, who was calmly observing the participants, was almost sure that his Inverted Harmless Viper had killed those two brats who didn't even deserve to hold his shoes .
Just when he was confident about his guess, he widened his eyes in disbelief .
Davis and Ellia entered the arena, their smiles, as well as their facial expressions, expressed no fear nor any dismay .
Ellia, being the child she was, ignored the threat, that is Emperor Tritor while looking forward to the gift that Davis had prepared for her .
'They managed to escape?' Emperor Tritor thought as his face turned ugly but quickly turned calm since he was prepared for this scenario as well .
'No matter, after this competition ends, I'll be sure to end you myself!' Emperor Tritor thought as he smirked .
Davis and Ellia headed to the place where the geniuses sat . As they walked towards them, some of them frowned while some of them smiled .
Davis didn't take any heed to them and sat on a seat while Ellia hesitated for a moment before she sat beside him as well .
Just because that she decided that she was no longer going to be a maid, doesn't mean that she can break out of that mentality that quickly .
The arrogant geniuses shrugged it off as she was powerful enough to be placed 5th in the second round .
As such, Ellia was able to sit there without any repercussions this time .
"Haha, son-in-law . Don't just sit there, come above . " Emperor Ashton laughed .
Davis looked at Ellia . She nodded her head, indicating that it would be fine .
He then walked above to the place where the emperors sat . His small eyes viewed Emperor Tritor for a moment before looking in the direction of Emperor Ashton .
"Excellent manoeuvre you have shown in using your skills, but you should also work on your spear skills!"
"Spear skills? Oh, I was just waving and thrusting the spear with my power, nothing else . " Davis replied perfunctorily .
Everyone's eyes twitched from hearing that response . They thought he looked somewhat cool but thought, 'Shouldn't one accept their mistakes and rectify it when an elder corrected them?'
Emperor Ashton held his abdomen, "Haha, that's right . There's no need to stand on ceremonies with me!"
Davis nodded his head . To this man who looked straightforward and jovial, he had a good impression .
"Since you're already here, why not meet my darling daughter?" Emperor Ashton grinned as he continued, "After all, last time you missed the chance to be acquainted with her because of a particular someone, finding issues with you out of nowhere . "
Davis laughed in response, his laughter was genuine, because the person who Emperor Ashton indirectly pointed to was Emperor Tritor .
Emperor Tritor's face had no changes as if he didn't hear anything at all .
"Shirley, come on up!" Emperor Ashton lovingly called out .
A figure stood up from the seating, blazing red hair cascaded down till her waist .
Slowly turning around, her face was covered with a red transparent veil . Bangs covered the left side of her face as it reached beside her petite nose .
She wore fiery red robes which wrapped her entire body till it accentuated her S-shaped curves . The part from her shoulder to her elbow was the only visible spot where one could see her jade-white skin .
She elegantly moved her legs in the direction of her father and stepped on the air .
Davis widened his eyes, "Peak-Level Revolving Core Stage!"
Her legs danced in the air while her skirt fluttered in the wind as she made her way to their place .
Looking at her figure coming closer, Davis sighed, 'Why are their so many beauties in this world?' He felt that he should try to gain max resistance to beauties and be able to resist their charms once he grew up .
Or else, he could only imagine what kind of tragedy or calamity would befall him in the future . Naturally, this confidence came from the killer looks of his face .
Shirley leapt from the air and stood beside her father, her eyes involuntarily looked at Davis for a moment before she clasped hands to her father and the other emperors as she greeted .
"It's already time for the final competition, so quickly get to know yourselves!" Emperor Ashton said jubilantly, his eyes gleamed .
