Chapter 228: Chapter228-Leslie’s Fury, “Slap Her!”
The smile on the faces of the Three Kings suddenly vanished. The aura belonging to god-tier mages pressed down on Adele like a mountain.
Many forces watching this scene unfold through the Mana View projection from Middle Earth Academy City felt a twinge of surprise.
Whether it was Sunluna Academy or the Three Kings, both were enormous powers not to be trifled with. Yet this woman had appeared and spoken with such bold disdain.
Where did she get the courage?!
Boom!
The combined pressure from the Three Kings had materialized into a crushing force, like the weight of ten thousand mountains, bearing down on Adele to teach the younger generation a lesson.
Adele’s expression remained calm.
Her butler stepped forward, and before anyone could even track his movements, the force conjured by the Three Kings was forcibly dispelled!
Everyone watching was stunned.
The seemingly ordinary butler had such terrifying strength!
Who was this blonde woman, really?
With all eyes now fixed on her, Adele seemed to enjoy the attention. She slightly raised her head, casting a gaze over the crowd, and said indifferently:
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Adele Rosewood.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the curious expressions on everyone’s faces shifted to fear!
Rosewood!
This was the family known as the strongest in all of Middle Earth! Their power was terrifying, and everyone in Middle Earth feared them!
The fact that this blonde woman was a member of the Rosewood family explained her arrogance.
But the Rosewood family rarely appeared in public. What was her purpose in coming here now?
As soon as they had this thought, a smile appeared on Adele’s rosy lips as she turned to look at Leslie, whose expression was indifferent.
“My dear sister, I’ve come personally to bring you home. Why do you seem so unwelcoming?”
Sister?
Leslie was also from the Rosewood family?!
As Adele’s words landed, it was as though a stone had been thrown into still waters, causing an uproar among the crowd!
Wasn’t Leslie from a barren land? How could she be a member of the Rosewood family?
Under the gaze of so many, Leslie remained silent, as though Adele wasn’t even talking about her.
Owen gripped Leslie’s delicate hand tightly, preparing to step forward.
But Adele had already noticed him. She smiled coolly and said, “So young and already a god-slayer, and not bad-looking either. Who wouldn’t fall for someone like that? No wonder my sister likes you. However, she’s about to return home with me, and I’m afraid you’ll never see each other again…”
She shook her head and then looked at Leslie again, her face showing a hint of regret.
Leslie narrowed her eyes and glanced at the butler standing next to Adele.
“Xavier, Adele has spoken out of turn. Slap her!”
Adele froze, then a trace of disdain crept across her proud face. After all these years, she didn’t believe Leslie could still command this butler!
Smack!
A heavy slap echoed through the air. The butler standing beside Adele had turned and slapped her across the face, leaving a bright red handprint. It burned.
“You! You!”
Adele’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked from the butler to Leslie, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
Why?
Why could Leslie still command this special butler, even after being away from the family for so long?
As Adele’s expression changed dramatically, the butler Leslie had called Xavier stood respectfully in front of her, bowing deeply as he spoke:
“Miss, the head of the family misses you dearly. He hopes you will return. It’s important for your future. After all, the head is still your father…”
“I only have one father, and it’s not him!”
Before the butler could finish, Leslie cut him off sharply.
“Miss, no matter what has happened, family is about understanding and forgiveness. You know that the head has already set aside his pride, which shows how much he values you,” the butler continued to persuade her.
Leslie remained unmoved, glancing at Owen as she spoke:
“Xavier, I now have my own family. Owen is my fiancé and my future husband. I am doing well. Perhaps I once was part of the Rosewood family, but from now on, I no longer am.”
Seeing Leslie’s firm stance, the butler paused for a moment before speaking again, this time with a hint of helplessness in his voice:
“Miss, if you refuse to return, the family may have no choice but to align with the God Realm. In that case, Master Owen will surely die.”
“Miss, I won’t ask for an immediate answer. Please think it over carefully—for the family, for yourself, and for Master Owen. If you change your mind, you can come to the family at any time.”
After saying this, the butler gave Leslie one last deep look before leaving with an enraged, face-slapping Adele.
As the two left, Owen looked at the serious expression on Leslie’s face, concern flashing in his eyes.
He knew that in the original anime, anything related to her original family would always shake Leslie’s composure.
Sensing Owen’s gaze, Leslie smiled lightly. “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
No sooner had she finished speaking than divine light flared up all around the ruins of Pyrothrone Kingdom, like towering walls trapping everyone inside.
An overwhelming pressure, like a waterfall, descended from above, causing the entire ruin to tremble.
The God Realm had made its move!
Owen, Leslie, and the Three Kings all grew grim as they stood among the ruins.
And with the tremors spreading, all the forces and mages watching through the Mana View projection felt their hearts tighten.
Even through the projection, they could sense a soul-shaking power surging!
Especially when they looked toward the sky under the weight of that pressure.
Faintly, a massive purple and gold portal was opening, with blinding light piercing through, dyeing the sky and earth in dark gold.
“The power of the God Realm!”
“They’re already making a move on Owen? It seems Owen has truly angered the God Realm!”
“Owen is only a master-tier mage, and yet the God Realm couldn’t wait to descend. This is unprecedented!”
Many mages of Middle Earth, upon seeing the purple-gold light, were struck with astonishment.
The God Realm was known for its mystery and strength.
It was because of this that many rumors surrounded it.
It was said that when the purple-gold gates opened, it meant a god-tier being from the God Realm was descending.
In the past, when god-tier mages fought or defied the orders of the God Realm, the response had always been slow, giving the impression of calm and confidence.
But now, Owen had barely destroyed Pyrothrone Kingdom, and the God Realm had already descended!
What’s more, the sharpest mages could sense a power beyond god-tier from that purple portal!
“Could it be that more than just god-tier mages from the God Realm are being deployed?”
The deans of the three great academies stood frozen in place.
Even they felt their scalps tingle under the overwhelming pressure coming from the portal.
That power was definitely beyond god-tier!
Yet Owen was still far from reaching god-tier!
Even though he had slain the Pyrothrone King, the Pyrothrone King was not particularly strong within the god-tier ranks.
Owen had already used almost all of his trump cards.
For a force like the God Realm, sending out a few god-tier mages was already quite remarkable.
But now, they were deploying a God King-level mage!
The Three Kings, standing beside Owen, had also sensed the presence of something beyond a god-tier mage.
Their previously relaxed expressions had become somber and serious.
They prided themselves on not fearing any god-tier mage.
But against a God King-level mage, even they were powerless.
Even within the God Realm, such beings were considered the absolute top tier, yet one had now appeared here!
For a moment, the Three Kings looked at Owen once again, their expressions complex.
They had thought they were giving Owen enough attention, but clearly, the God Realm regarded Owen even more highly!
Under the increasingly shocked gazes of everyone, three grand figures gradually emerged from the purple light, standing tall in this world.
As they appeared, everyone’s attention was involuntarily drawn to them, as though their very presence was the center of the universe!
