Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

"I shall honor my grandfather's promise and accept this engagement," declared the Eldest Princess, rising to her feet and speaking with her signature melodic yet cold tone.

Although she spoke about accepting the engagement, there was no hint of any emotion in her gaze toward the young man standing before her.

Unlike the people here, her father and she knew that the letter wasn't a lie. In fact, her grandfather had already told them before dying that he had arranged her engagement with a young genius.

She and her father didn't take that statement seriously since no one came forward with the engagement letter all this time.

However, just as they were starting to forget that matter, someone came forward. Furthermore, she discovered that the individual in question had no trace of Celestial Aura which left her feeling very let down that her grandfather had selected such an incompetent person for her.

Despite the strong negative emotions she was experiencing, she found herself unable to reject her grandfather's promise. Throughout her life, she had been closer to her grandfather than she ever was to her own father. Her grandfather had imparted all of his knowledge to her and had been her greatest teacher.

Even though her future husband was useless, she still decided to keep the promise. Nevertheless, she had firmly resolved that their marriage would be in name only. She was determined not to allow any man, even him, to distract her from her commitment to her pursuit of strength!

One announcement... A single announcement from the Princess stunned everyone who had been mocking the young man!

No matter how useless that man was, if he became the princess's husband, his standing was something that they couldn't compare to!

A number of youngsters within the party were feeling envious of the Royal Family's useless son-in-law. At the same time, some influential individuals who sought to arrange a marriage between their own son and the Princess were attempting to provide justifications to influence her decision so she wouldn't marry the man!

Regrettably, their efforts were unsuccessful in convincing her to alter her decision.

Even the King let out a deep sigh, unable to comprehend why his father had chosen such an incompetent man for his daughter. The King's frustration towards the young man continued to grow.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked his daughter. "You know, you can have any genius you want to marry in the future. But to select him...?"

" If it's the sin of breaking your grandfather's promise that you're worried about, they let me carry the sin of breaking this promise. I can't let you suffer all your life like this!"

"Father... It doesn't matter." The Princess stood straight, facing her father. "I already wasn't planning to marry in this life. It doesn't matter if a man like him uses the title of my husband in the future. It doesn't change anything."

The shabbily dressed young man could only scratch the back of his head in frustration. He couldn't help but wonder just how many times he was called useless in the last half an hour!

'These idiots, they don't know anything! If I'm useless, then all these people are beyond useless! Whatever, there's no need to show my real skills to these short sighted people! Moreover, once I'm married, my task should be completed!'

The young man stood idly in place, his hands leisurely tucked behind his back and no words escaping his lips.

The King's disappointment was palpable as he watched his birthday celebration morph into an unexpected turn of events. Originally intended as a day of rejoicing, the presence of the individual before him had transformed the occasion into a farce, thereby compromising the dignity of the Royal Family.

"Alright! I'll listen to my daughter and fulfill the promise that my father made!" The King spoke with clenched teeth. With each word, he felt his heart aching for his daughter.

"After two weeks, my daughter will turn twenty! That will be the day of her marriage!" He said, glancing at the man in the center of the hall. "That's enough for today! Everyone can leave n-"

Bang~

Frustrated, the King decided to end the Celebration right there. However, before he could finish speaking, a booming sound resounded in the hall as the doors were forced open.

Following the door opening, two bodies flew inside the hall, landing on the floor.

From the looks of those two people were both the guards that were assigned the duty at the front gate. However, currently they were growling in pain!

Their legs were turned in such an angle that shouldn't have been possible! It was clear that someone had broken their legs before tossing them inside.

The King was stunned that someone would dare provoke him like that.

"Who dares?!"

He was already frustrated about Ji Yang's unexpected arrival to propose marriage to his daughter. And now, there was somebody else attempting to agitate him further?!

"I am perplexed by the King's sudden fury," remarked the speaker as the sound of approaching footsteps grew louder. Two individuals strolled inside the grand hall with an unhurried pace, seemingly unperturbed by the gravity of the situation.

Xu Shan turned to Ye Han and asked, "Do you think our gifts were not to his liking?"

As he entered the Royal Hall, his calm voice betrayed no hint of anxiety. He remained composed, his confident demeanor unshaken in the presence of the many influential figures around him. His unwavering gaze revealed no trace of fear or trepidation.

The King's face twisted with concern as he surveyed the Royal Hall. Despite the fact that only two individuals had entered, there was something peculiar about them that he couldn't quite put his finger on. It was as though he was unable to see through them, leaving him with a deepening sense of unease.

Xu Shan appeared to be a handsome young man who couldn't harm even a small animal. Yet, his eyes held an inscrutable depth that sent shivers down the King's spine, as if he had emerged from the depths of hell itself.

The King couldn't help but feel even more fear towards the man standing behind Xu Shan as he finally recognized him.

As soon as the Emperor saw the person behind Xu Shan, his legs started trembling. His feet turned weak 'T-the Executioner...?'

It wasn't often that the King showed such fear. Even though Ye Han didn't reveal a single trace of his aura, as if he was a mere mortal, the King knew the terror of that man!

A few years ago, the Eternal Dynasty and the Sky Dynasty were at war! Since Esti Kingdom was under the Eternal Dynasty, they also sent some soldiers and supplies to support the Eternal Dynasty.

At that time, the current King had also gone there, to see the situation of the battle! And what he saw there was still fresh in his mind!

The man that was calmly walking behind Xu Shan was like the demon of the battlefield, covered in blood with multiple Sky Celestials lying dead next to him!

That fear... It was still fresh in the King's mind!

'T-they are from the Eternal Dynasty? W-why would they be here?'

He was terrified of Ye Han. However, the image of Ye Han trailing behind Xu Shan like a devoted subordinate made him even more frightened, causing his face to turn even whiter.

The fact that the Executioner was walking behind the young man signifies that the young man was definitely a high ranking Prince of the Eternal Dynasty's royal family.

'Don't tell me my guards somehow offended these demons?! Is today the day the Kingdom is going to be destroyed?!'

The individuals present did not identify Xu Shan and Ye Han, unlike the King.

"Who are you?! How dare you interrupt His Majesty's celebration!"

As everyone was still reeling from the shock, a confident young man stepped forward with a strong sense of justice. He seemed determined to win the affection of the Princess and sway her from marrying Ji Yang. His confidence and presumed charm were apparent in his demeanor.

However, no one even saw how it happened but the next moment, the young man's head rolled on the ground. Neither Xu Shan, nor Ye Han had moved!
