Chapter 765: Son-in-law
“!!!” In the next moment, gasps were heard from all over the hall.
Every single person standing inside the hall was surprised to see her; they all stared in awe, questioning if such a beauty actually existed in reality. She looked like a goddess.
“Alice…?” Darius stood up from his throne and mumbled. She had changed quite a bit from before; the color of her hair had changed, and she looked much more beautiful and mature than before.
“Yes, Father, it’s me.” Alice spoke with a smile. Everyone was so shocked to see such a beautiful woman that no one noticed that the guards standing at the entrance had all been put to sleep.
Jayden stood there, allowing Alice to enjoy her happy moment. Her smile made him feel good; she looked way better like this than yesterday when she was sad.
Darius ran from his throne and hugged his daughter, despite all these people being present there and even though he was the king and shouldn’t be displaying such emotions in front of everyone.
He wasn’t able to hold back his emotions and cried; tears flowed down his cheeks as he caressed her head. He believed that he would never be able to see her again, so this was the best surprise he could have asked for.
Then he let go of her and while looking at her, he spoke: “My little princess, you have changed so much, I almost didn’t recognize you.”
“Hehe, Father, it’s been such a long time. Of course, I would look different.” Alice replied with a small laugh.
“She is the Princess?” Everyone mumbled in surprise. Many of them had seen Alice before, and they knew she looked extremely beautiful, but now she looked like a real Goddess.
“So she is back?”
“How can anyone look so beautiful?”
None of them were able to move their gaze away from her, as they all stood there like statues.
“Where have you been all this time? And—” Darius was still feeling happy about getting to see his daughter again, but it seemed their happy moment was about to come to an end.
“The Princess is finally back!! The Gods have listened to our prayers, we will finally be able to get out of our predicament. I am sure, great King J would be very happy to hear this news too.
He will stop the war against us immediately, and we would be able to have a good relation with such a big planet.
We shouldn’t be wasting time here on useless things, let’s go, Princess, you should meet your husba—”
After getting over his shock, a big smile appeared over the face of the first minister.
He was sure that if he could bring Alice to J, then he would receive great treasures from him and would even get a high position over all the kingdoms.
So while speaking, he hastily walked towards Alice and extended his hand to get a hold of her and bring her to J immediately.
“H- Huh? M- My arm? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah My aaaaaarrrrmmmmmm Ughhhhhhhhh It hurtsssss”
Just as he raised his hand, the first minister suddenly couldn’t feel his right hand, and as he looked towards his shoulder, he was shocked to see that there was no arm, and blood sputtered out uncontrollably.
He screamed madly in pain as his gaze moved around, wondering just what had happened. He was not even able to notice anything; then suddenly, pain consumed his entire being.
Finally, his gaze landed on Jayden, who stood not too far away from him with a look of disgust on his face, and he was holding the first minister’s right arm in his hand.
In just an instant, Jayden had torn away his entire arm right from the shoulder, and everyone in the hall finally noticed Jayden; all their attention moved from Alice to him.
“A- Alice, who is he?” Darius questioned. Even he was not able to see anything; before he could notice it, that man was already standing there while holding the first minister’s arm in his hand.
‘I have never seen anyone this strong, just who is this man?’ Darius wondered.
“Father, meet him; he is my husband.” Just as Alice introduced him in a loud voice, several gasps were heard again all over the hall.
Everyone now stared at Jayden, and they were all shocked to see how good he looked. Both Alice and Jayden seemed as if they had already transcended to godhood.
Throwing the arm away, Jayden smiled and looked towards Darius before speaking:
“Hello, sir, I am Jayden. It seems you have a lot going on here.”
“…” Darius just stood there stunned. Jayden looked much more handsome than any man he had ever seen, and his strength, he had just given a demo of it moments ago.
“Aghhhhhhhh What are you all doing j- just standing there? Ughhhhh Go and attack this heinous criminal, haaaaaa this instant.” The first minister screamed as he rolled all over the ground, painting it all in blood.
“Calm down, hubby.” Alice spoke in a soothing tone. She didn’t want him to cause a bloodbath the moment he appeared in front of her father, as it might leave a bad image of him.
“I’m calm, that’s why he is still alive.” Jayden replied. For the same reason, he held back, and he was sure Alice could deal with such small matters on her own easily.
Some of the guards just looked towards Darius as if they wanted to receive his orders, but many of them just ran towards Jayden with swords in their hands as if they were about to kill him.
“Stop right there, can’t you see he is my son-in-law? If any of you come closer, I’ll tear your body with my hands.” Darius’s voice thundered over all the guards, and it was enough to stop them all in their tracks.
“Y- Your majesty, what ughhh are you doing? Didn’t you just see what he d- did to me?
Haa haa He is a c- criminal, cough cough we should punish him immediately—” the first minister spoke, as he coughed out blood. He didn’t even have the strength to stand up.
“Yes, I saw it all, and my son-in-law didn’t do anything wrong; he was just punishing a traitor. You think I don’t know what you have been doing behind my back? You will be properly judged later.
Throw this bastard into prison.” Darius ordered, and several guards immediately rushed to capture him. Since the moment came, Darius decided to take care of this pest.
“Y- Your majesty, ughhh you are making a mistake haa haa J wouldn’t be h- happy if he heard about this, aaaaaah w- we can still talk abou— Ughhh let me go, I am ordering you, you lowlifes.”
Even as he was dragged away, the first minister kept struggling, but soon he fell unconscious.
Jayden condensed a very small amount of destructive energy and then teleported it directly inside the minister’s body.
Just this amount would be enough to make him go through the pain of his life, and make him suffer for more than a week, and then his body would finally explode.
