Novel & Cerita Emperor's Champion

" The emperor's words dripped with menace. "You're courting death!" Chase shouted, rage flaring instantly. He despised threats above all else, and the emperor's words pushed him to the brink of losing control. Of all things, the emperor chose to threaten Quinn, Chase's sorest point. Even though Chase was only a stage-six martial lord and was barely able to stand under the emperor's oppressive aura, he could not help but glare fiercely at the emperor. The emperor taunted, "Don't be so rash. In this blessed spot, I am a god. Even if you were a full realm stronger, you'd still have to bow to me obediently."

"Unfortunately, he didn't. He had secretly sent his elite men to investigate deeper into the matter. The empress had told everyone that Prince Romeo grew up in Dacria but the emperor's men found out that nobody in Dacria ever knew about the prince, much less saw him, in the last sixteen years. No matter what he did, there was no information at all. It was as if the prince had just appeared out of nowhere. And his suspicions never stopped there. He began to mentally harass the empress to tell him the truth, telling her that he did not believe that Romeo belonged to him. But the empress endured everything and stood her ground against the emperor. The empress wanted Prince Romeo to grow stronge

“That is just a myth, a fairy tale. There is no Champion,’ I scoffed. “It's not a myth. Leo’s grandmother and her mother were both Champions.” Agnes insisted, the fire of belief burning in her eyes.

Fragile, even. My chest contracts in a way that pisses me off. Her eyes lift and find mine. Blue meeting blue. The chapel disappears. For a second, it’s just us. She’s beautiful. The kind of beautiful that makes a man angry about it. My jaw ticks. My mouth goes dry. “I shouldn’t want her,” I mutter under my breath. Valerio hears. He always does. His lips twitch into a smirk. “Careful, amico,” he murmurs without turning his head. “Someone might think you’re human.”

It was the most important ceremony in the empire, the moment that separated ordinary nobles from true rulers. And tomorrow… she was supposed to become Alpha Cassian’s chosen bride. The thought alone made warmth bloom inside her despite the cold. A small smile touched her lips as she crossed the courtyard. Exhaustion ached through every part of her body. She had worked since dawn without a single moment of rest—scrubbing banquet halls until her knees burned against marble floors, polishing silver goblets until her reflection stared back at her, sewing ceremonial robes until her fingertips bled from countless needle pricks.

The city lights blurred. Elara pressed her palm to her belly. The life inside moved again, a tiny stubborn beat. She whispered, “I will keep you safe,” and did not know if promise was brave or foolish. A message flashed on her phone: CONFIRMATION: TRANSACTION COMPLETE—from Adrian’s office. She swallowed hard. The words felt like a lock. They drove through streets bright with other people’s lives. The car turned into a quieter road. Elara watched the city recede and thought of names—Victor Hale, board members with polite faces. She thought of how easy it was for men to turn rumor into law.

"Oh..." "That task takes a lot of mana so most people tend to not practice it" Hector said and she finally balanced herself up, "I'm surprised you haven't fallen asleep, that means you have quite a bit of mana in there, and that explains why you were picked by the king". Hector gave a delighted smile and for once Alexis saw an emotion on his face aside from that polite mask he wore. It was excitement. Though she didn't understand why, she was just glad he could relax around her a bit. "Speaking of that scum- Emperor, where is he?" She came to the assumption he was in the carriage shortly after she asked.

The cavaliers gave them the space as the two boys stared into their blue eyes. “I will destroy you and your friends too,” The Emperor said without breaking a sweat. “You are killing me with your horrible breath already,” Ginika hissed. The Emperor pushed him backward and charged again. They were both burning with blue flames and each clang of the blue sword sent a heat of vibration throughout the entire arena.

I, on the other hand, had chosen the Elite Athlete System. I became America's youngest Olympic champion and one of the greatest athletes of my generation. Even Ethan Walker, the heir to the powerful Walker family, whom Emily had never been able to win over, ended up chasing me. I had both fame and fortune. Unable to accept that, Emily murdered me. And now, we were both sixteen again. Before the mysterious figure could finish speaking, Emily shouted, "I choose the Elite Athlete System!" The hooded figure revealed half of a gentle smile. "But a moment ago, you said your greatest wish was extraordinary beauty."

She stood up and gloomily packed up her things, ready to leave. At this time, the voice of the host rang out again, "The most exciting moment has come. Who on earth will be the heroine of the 'War Emperor'?" He opened the last card, "The champion of this audition is none other than Eva!" When she heard her name, Eva trembled violently, thinking that he had heard it wrong. However, Hazel heard it clearly, she leaped up like a happy little bird. "Evan, you're the champion. You're the heroine!"
