[Prince POV]

[Asura Castle Gate]

After we have departed from the Gods; my sister and I have immediately flown are way home. With our previous cultivation, it would have taken us one hour to get back, but now it has only taken us an instant. On the way here, we saw General Emos on the way back to the castle.

‘Hmm, it seems that the God did not kill him,’ I thought as a grin appeared on my face. ‘Good.’

I would guess it would take him five minutes to arrive. As we arrived in front of the castle gate, the guards have greeted us.

“Halt! Who goes there?” Asked two guards dressed in the royal guard uniform stationed in front of the castle gate. One of the guards looked up at my face, noticed my facial appearance, and said, “forgive us, Prince. We did not know that it was you. You have changed a great deal, Prince, and Princess. What could cause such a change?”

 ‘Good, it seems that the hidden exits are still hidden,’ I thought.

“We were out for a stroll and stumbled across something. Besides, it is not your place to question us. When you see General Emos, tell him that we would like to have a word with him, also do not tell him about our change. I would like that to be a surprise,” said my sister with a beautiful smile that sent chills down my spine.

My sister is not as nice and peaceful as everyone thinks. There was a time with someone has accidently hit her with a rock. During the situation, she was calm and forgiving, but the next day the person was found dead in a ditch somewhere with their eyes and hands removed. Well, I can not say with a clear conscious that I am not as bad as her.

‘I can almost feel pity for Emos… almost,’ I thought.

“Yes, Princess, I will do just that,” said the guard as he turned around, unlocked the gate, and pushed it open. As we stride through the gates, a view of the castle welcomed us. The castle is magnificent; it stood at least 17 meters high. The walls were as white as freshly fallen snow.

‘I am going to miss this place,’ I thought. ‘We have things to settle before we go.’

“Sister, let us go greet father,” I said as I spread my sense to cover the castle. I have found my father in his room cultivating. Our father stood1.9 meters tall, his looks are slightly above average, and he was wearing a Taoist robe. We both hid our presence and teleported into the room.

[King POV]

“It has been a few hours since I have seen my daughter, Temera, and my son, Asura,” I said aloud to myself. I spread my sense to look for them in the castle but receive no results; I could not find them. I spread it even further than the castle and came across General Emos on a course to the castle. I sent him a message through the sense that said, “General Emos, have you seen my children?”

“My King, I have dreadful news for you,” replied Emos. “I think it will be better if I told you in person.”

“Okay, I will await your arrival,” I replied nervously.

[Princess POV]

After the watching the conversation that our father had with Emos, a better idea came to mind on how to get revenge. I sent a message to my brother that said, “brother, do not show yourself yet. Wait until the General has come and tell father the news.”

My brother looked at me strangely, but a moment later gave a nod of confirmation.

‘Now, we wait,’ I thought as I grinned.

[Emos POV]

‘Who were those two figures back there?’ I thought to myself. ‘It does not matter who they are. No mortal can save them fast enough.’

I was on my way back to the castle when I have received a message from ‘my King.’

“General Emos, have you seen my children?” Asked the King.

“My King, I have dreadful news for you,” I replied. “I think it will be better if I told you in person.”

“Okay, I will await your arrival,” the King replied nervously.

‘I cannot wait to see the look on your face when you hear that your children have been killed,’ I thought to myself as I bypassed the city and headed straight for the castle gate. As I drawn closer to the gate, one of the guards came toward me and said, “General Emos, the Princess Temara would like to have a word with you.”

I paused and looked at him as if he said the most inarticulate thing that I have ever heard, but I quickly changed my facial expression, and said, “thanks for the notice. First, I have to meet with the King.”

You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

The guard opened the gate and allowed me inside. As soon as the gate closed, I started to laugh madly.

‘Ha ha, stupid guard. The Princess is already dead by now,’ I thought as I continued on my way to the Kings room. After five minutes of walking, I have reached the Kings bedroom door. Right as I was about to knock, a voice echoed behind the door.

“Come in,” said the King.

“I am coming in,” I said as I reached for the handle, turned the handle, and walked into the room.

“What is this terrible news that you speak of?” Asked the King.

“My King, the news is that I have found the Prince and Princess dead bodies a few miles outside the city,” I said as I tried to make my eyes teary. “I believe it was the bandits.”

“It cannot be! The bandits know not to touch a hair on a royal member,” exclaimed the King in a fit of rage. His power oozed from his body which caused sweat to drip down my back. The entire castle began to shake.

“I will have their heads for this!” Shouted the King as tears dripped down his cheeks.

‘Yes, this is what I have wanted to see,’ I thought.

“Now you know how I felt when you had killed my family secretly,” I mumbled under my breath, “you thought that I would not have known it was you?”

[Third POV]

The King did not hear the General mumbles because he has not paid attention. In the corner of the room, the Prince and Princess talked with each other while they still hid their presence.

“Brother, it is time,” said the Princess to the Prince.

They both displayed their presence. Immediately, the King and General has noticed their presence, but they could not sense their power. As they looked, they noticed that the intruders were colossal.

“Who are you? Do you know who I am?” Asked the King as he sent pressure towards them, but with a wave of a hand, the pressure vanished. This action has shocked the King tremendously.

“Do you not know that you are in the presence of a King?!” Roared the Emos. He hoped that one of them would kill the King, but his hopes were soon crushed the next moment.

[Prince Asura POV]

“Calm down it’s just us, Asura and Temera,” I said with a grin.

“Thank goodness that you both are okay,” said father with relief on his face which instantly turned to shock when he has seen how much we have changed. He continued, “how did you change so much in the matter of hours that I have not seen you?”

“Father, let us save that for another time,” said my sister with a beautiful smile. “We should talk about our little General Emos.”

[General Emos POV]

‘How the fuck are they still alive?!’ I thought as I looked at them with shock and disbelief. ‘I am pretty sure that they should be dead right now.’

I blanked out for a moment and regained focus just in time to hear, “… little General Emos.”

‘Fuck! Fuck! Those two figures from before should be the ones that saved them, but how could I not have sensed them when they were right there in front of us? How could they have waved off their father pressure? I have to get out of here,’ I thought as I planned out my escape. I looked toward the window and took action.

[Prince POV]

“Where do you think you are going?” I said as I waved my hand and forced him to the ground with pressure.

“What are you doing to the General?” Asked father.

“Father, the General here,” said my sister as she pointed at the general. “This bastard here destroyed our cultivation and left us to die miles away. If it were not for the help that we received, we would have been dead.”

“You did what to my children!” Exclaimed father as he rushed over to the general. I waved off the pressure which allowed our father to reach the general. He reached down, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him off the ground.

“Why did you do it?” asked father to the general.

“Ugh…,” replied the general as he could not breathe.

Father has removed his grip from around his neck and he fell to the floor.

“*cough* I just *cough* wanted you to feel *cough* how I felt when you have killed my family,” replied the general.

“Bastard, who has told you this lie? If I wanted to kill your family, you would have known that it was me. I would not hide from you. I thought of you as a brother,” replied father.

“Damn! The lord of the north. He was the one who has told me this to be true,” said the general with a hint of shame and rage in his voice.

“It does not matter who fault it was. You have done what you have done. There is no question about it. You can either die painlessly or face severe pain. It’s your choice,” said my sister.

[Third POV]

Faced with only two choices sweat poured down his body. Just as he was going to reply the King has spoken in his place.

“Daughter, I am also angry at what he has done, but can you not give your father some face?” Said the King with a hint of authoritative force in his voice.

She looked at her father and simply said, “No.” She looked away from him, back toward the general, and said, “Now, choose.”

After a few moments, the general has resolved himself and said, “I choose pain, I will -.” Before he could finish his sentence, pressure descended on his body immediately. She started with the very tip of the feet and hands. She slowly moved the pressure to crush the bones inch-by-inch. Once he healed, she would do it again and again. Their father was covered in sweat mumbling, “she’s just like her mother.”

“Sister, I think that’s enough. It’s almost time for us to go,” said the Prince.

Their father awoke from his trance and said, “where are you two going?”

“We are the servants of Gods now, father,” said the Prince proudly.

“And where are these Gods that you speak of?” Asked their father with a voice of a little doubt. The Prince and Princess now no longer paid attention to the father and the general. They talked to each other.

“I think our father could handle the rest of the problems,” said the Prince.

“Yes, I believe so as well,” said the Princess.

“With that our business is finished,” said the Prince. As soon as he said those words, two figures appeared in the room.

[Samuru POV]

“That was quite the spectacle we have just seen. Do you not agree?” I asked Iovis.

“Yes, it was quite something,” he replied.

We both looked toward our two servants. They both bowed deeply to us and introduced their father.

“Milord, this is our father, King Dylous,” said the Prince.

“It is an honor to meet you both,” said the King as he bowed his head deeply.

“I am Samuru a God of Creation and Magic. This person here,” I said as I pointed toward Iovis, “is Iovis a God of Destruction. I kind of want to go somewhere quickly, so we will go now. Before we leave, I will give you a parting gift.”

I waved my hand and changed the body of the King. He’s still human. I have only improved his talent a great deal but not close to the level of our servants.

“Thank you!” Said the King as he bowed again.

“Time to go,” I said and we vanished.
