Chapter 237 Night Party at the Royal Pce... Part-1.


    ??Time flew by when the students were excitedly wandering around the Elven city every day.


    The meeting of gods ended in the evening of the third day and all the SS-rankers left the meeting hall one by one.


    Everyone went back to their designated rooms to rest for the night.


    The Tournament is going to be held tomorrow after all and everyone is excited about it so most of the students went to rest early.


    Except for Rio and the others of course.


    …


    In the back garden of the Royal Pce.


    "Whoa! This ce is so beautiful!" (Riya)


    All of the students felt quite astonished while looking at the trees that were brilliantly decorated with lights and the whole garden was filled with colorful flowers.


    A band of musicians started to y ssic elven music when the students entered the garden.


    The refreshing wind breeze made the atmosphere even better.


    Ryul and Syvis personally came to wee the students.


    "We originally only invited Ashtel and Jin for drinks but now that Al has decided to invite you kids too, then we decided to throw this party a bit more luxuriously, hehe…" (Ryul)


    Ashtel who was already sitting on a nearby chair and was sipping wine with Jin nced at the students and nodded his head.


    "You guys have to enter the tournament tomorrow, so don''t stay up toote, when you feel sleepy you are free to go back anytime…" (Ashtel)


    The students nodded their heads.


    A maid came and served them juice as they were all minors and couldn''t drink wine.


    Just when Link was about to sit down, his danger senses immediately tingled and he immediately took a fighting stance.


    [Dragon arts: Vortex barrier punch!]


    A massive fist that seemed like a giant''s collided with Link''s fist and a massive shockwave appeared from the collision of those punches and the air pressure directly swept away the furniture nearby.


    "Hoh, you are indeed as strong as the rumors say, Link Rex…" (???)


    Only after hearing that heavy voice did Link look at the attacker and his eyes immediately widened in pure shock.


    The woman standing in front of him was at least 5 meters tall and her whole body seemed as if it was about to burst apart from those massive muscles.


    The size of her bicep alone seemed bigger than the size of an ordinary human''s face.


    She was so well-built and muscr that her massive muscles might even put an ogre to shame.


    The womanughed loudly after Link blocked her punch effortlessly.


    "BAHAHA! I knew I would be able to get a good challenge out of you, you are the strongest guy I have ever seen while being the same age as me, interesting!" (???)


    Hearing herughter, an amused look appeared on the four SS-rankers'' faces, but none of them said anything, as if they all knew that this was definitely going to happen.


    Ashtel even continued to sip his wine without even caring about what was going on around here.


    Only Ryul tiptoed his way to the girl''s side and said in a proud voice while looking at everyone.


    "Behold everyone! This is my proud and beautiful daughter, Vanya Yeljyre!" (Ryul)


    Only the maids of the household cheered at Ryul''s words.


    The students were just bewildered at this sudden introduction.


    "Hahaha, you praise me too much Father!" (Vanya)


    As if an enchantment had been released, her body started to shrivel and shorten at an insane speed.


    In an instant, Vanya returned back to her normal form. (Yeah her clothes are magical items they can expand and shrink…)


    [It''s transformation magic…] (Kai)


    ''It''s transformation magic…'' (Ellie)


    Both Ellie and Kai recognized the magic that Vanya was using earlier and they immediately notified their masters respectively.


    When Vanya returned back to her normal form, she turned into a beautiful girl who looked nothing like the ''giant'' they had just seen.


    A maid brought juice and handed it over to Vanya and Link both.


    "Forgive my rudeness, I just wanted to test for myself if the rumors about the famous Link Rex were true or not, but now that my doubts are resolved, let''s forget this matter with a toast!" (Vanya)


    "This is the way of a true warrior, no?" (Vanya)


    Although Link was quite angry by this sudden attack, he still raised his hand for a toast.


    ''If the four SS-rankers weren''t here looking at us, I would have definitely delivered a counterattack…'' (Link)


    Link held his hand back, otherwise, he had many ways to counterattack that sudden sneak attack.


    "haha, the elf princess certainly is ''unique''…" (Link)


    Hearing Link''s words, Ryul dered proudly.


    "Well, of course, Vanya has been blessed by the world tree since birth, her transformation magic was bestowed to her by the world tree itself…" (Ryul)


    "She is extremely skilled at it you know…" (Ryul)


    Vanya went ahead and sat on a nearby table while sipping the juice.


    Link and others also sat down as if all of them had forgotten about the mess caused by the collision of Link and Vanya''s fists.


    Rio asked Link in a quiet voice.


    "She blocked your punch?" (Rio)


    "Hmm, yes… this is the first time someone of my age has blocked my punch head-on like this…" (Link)


    "Things might get interesting in thepetition after all…" (Link)


    ''Well, of course, no candidate who made it here is weak... it''s just you are too strong…'' (Rio)


    A smile appeared on Link''s face as if he was excited for tomorrow''spetition now.


    After a while, Vanya walked over toward the group and sat beside them to have some casual chit-chat too.


    "It''s surprising actually for me too, that punch earlier was definitely not that weak, and you handled it so easily, your reaction time is quite fast!" (Vanya)


    "Well, I train my reaction time a lot…" (Link)


    Vanya''s voice seemed soft and enthusiastic in her normal formpared to the heavy and manly voice of her gigantic form.


    (There''s no doubt that she can crush people''s heads with her bicep in that form…)


    As fellow warriors, Link and Vanya immediately became friends after just a single exchange of fists.


    ''How did it be like this, wasn''t she supposed to show her giant form only during thepetition?'' (Rio)


    In the original novel, when Fade met her for the first time, she appeared in her normal form and directly fell in love with him at first sight, but now things have changed.


    The first time she appeared in front of the human candidates was in her giant form and that was to contend with Link.


    Originally Link should have been long dead by now and thus he couldn''t have appeared here.


    ''Perhaps, she wants topare her muscles with Link? Don''t tell me she is also a muscle idiot like Link…'' (Rio)


    The story has taken a strange turn, the princess who was supposed to show up as an elegant and cool beauty, has appeared as a wild and courageous warrior who wants topete with Link.


    What Rio didn''t know was that she had been trying to gather as much information about Link as possible, and thus she had no time to meet Fade these past few days.


    Moreover, with a world-famous warrior right in front of her, who canpete with her on equal grounds, why would she even bother with Fade right now?


    Thus, indirectly Rio made the meeting of this heroine with Fade impossible by saving Link.


    If Link wasn''t here, then Vanya would have looked for Fade but now the circumstances are totally different.


    The only person who was unhappy at the moment was none other than Riya.


    Arge pout appeared on her face when she saw Link talk with Vanya as if he was interested in her.


    "Haha, You certainly are a strong warrior Link Rex, how about you marry me? Ourbination will be a massive sess!" (Vanya)


    "Uh, I am already engag-" (Link)


    Before Link couldplete his sentence, Riya immediately clung to Link''s arm.


    Her ears standing like an alert cat, she red at Vanya and dered:


    "No! Link is mine!" (Riya)


    This scene made all the adults watching feel quite amused.


    Ashtel even ended upughing on this rare asion.


    Being red at with such intensity, Vanya had no choice but to back away.


    "I am already engaged actually, so I will decline your offer, Ms. Vanya…" (Link)


    "Ah, that''s such a shame, but it can''t be helped I guess…" (Vanya)


    Vanya''s proposal was just a half-hearted one she was just testing Link''s mentality.


    She had seen many young people who got overwhelmed by her beauty, but as Link is already engaged he is effectively immune to her charm.


    (Fun Fact: Being in a happy rtionship gives you 50 percent extra resistance to charm-rted spells and attacks… that''s why subus-type demons rarely target couples…)


    As they say: ''Love is one of the strongest powers out there…''


    …


    …


    Author''s Notes.


    Yo! It''s your beloved author here! It seems that Rio changed the plotline once again without even knowing it….


    Another one of Fade''s heroines has been led astray by Rio''s unconscious influence it seems….


    Question of the day.


    Would you have epted Vanya''s offer if you were in Link''s position?


    1. Yes (She would immediatelyugh at your fickle heart if you epted…)


    2. No (I am devoted to goddess Lia, no demon can shake my heart!)
