Rise Of The Anti God

Seeing how happy and excited her father looked, Yuria glanced away and said in a tone of guilt, "Actually, I have been having visions involving Damien for a long time, but I never told anyone since others might find it absurd. That's why I even asked you to hold this alchemy competition so that I can confirm whether a man like him really existed. But I don't know if these visions were caused by my soul because other than these visions involving him, I never saw anything else. So I don't think it can hardly be called a power."

King Krisen patted her hands with a warm smile, "It's fine, child. I never knew you were having these visions for a long time. But are you really sure the boy you saw in these visions is the same as the one I just saw?"

King Krisen still felt a kind of loss in his heart, thinking that his daughter was already in love with a man and would be leaving him to follow her lover. After all, he knew that whenever a father marries off their daughter, it would be very hard to see them again since their daughters would be living with their husbands.

That was why he never forced the topic of marriage upon her, even if it acted against his benefits. All he wanted to do was to spend as much time as he could with his daughter and take care of her.

But now he realized that she had grown up into an adult before he could realize it while in his mind she was still his innocent little girl who needed his protection.

He also had no idea what kind of a person Damien was and whether he could trust him with his daughter. That was something that worried him the most and made him anxious, seeing how much Yuria was in love with Damien.

He knew if he comes between them, then she would be heartbroken and might also hate him, which he definitely did not want her to.

"Yes, father. He even knew my name in my past life. So it means he also remembers! I don't know how but I was just too happy to reunite with him considering how things were in our past life," Yuria said as her eyes slowly became glazed.

King Krisen let out a sigh and asked, "Your past life...do you want to tell me about it?"

He could see that things didn't end well in her past life and felt a heartache realizing it, wondering whether things would have been different if he had been there.

Yuria slowly looked up at him and bit her lips as she said apologetically, "I...Papa, can I talk about it later?"

"Of course, child. I was just curious because I am learning about this for the first time, and it's not every day someone has knowledge of their past life. If you remember, then it definitely has something to do with your unique soul, or this could be the doing of the gods."

Yuria sighed, and because she already lived and was brought up in this world as well, the concept of gods and souls didn't seem unbelievable or unfamiliar to her, especially when people had the ability to cultivate their souls.

She herself was born with a special soul that allowed her to do miraculous things that others might find inconceivable.

Thus she couldn't help but wonder why she and Damien remembered their past lives and wondered if he had a special soul as well. Thinking about it again, she realized she absolutely knew nothing about Damien in this life.

So she looked at her father and asked eagerly, "Papa, can I go see Damien, please? Or can you let him go now? He is not a bad man."

King Krisen let out a loud sigh and said as he patted her shoulder, "I know he is not a bad man if you fell in love with him. But as your father, it is my duty, and I need to ask him certain things myself. But don't worry, I promise not to lay a single finger on him and let you see him once I ask him some things. And remember to not visit him recklessly because the walls have eyes, and you do not want Damien to get targeted, do you?"

King Krisen felt that Damien was not a prince since if he was, he would think twice about breaking into his daughter's quarters and even kiss her, especially when it could bring upon unimaginable consequences that could affect Damien's family as well if he had one or kingdom if he was a prince.

Hearing his words, Yuria pursed her lips and nodded, thinking that she should be careful about meeting Damien since there were too many eyes on her. And because she had some experience living in this world, she knew about the political tension between kingdoms and even within them.

King Krisen said in a reassuring tone, "Don't worry. You will definitely meet up with him later. I wouldn't want to make my daughter sad, would I?"

Yuria looked at him, feeling moved, and said with a soft smile, "I love you, Papa."

King Krisen warmly smiled, "I know. Me too, child. If only your mother was here to see you being in love with a boy, I am sure she would have been delighted. "

Yuria also smiled wistfully, thinking about her mother in her present life, about whom she didn't have much memory of since her mother was said to have passed away early.

She then asked him doubtfully, "So you wouldn't be asking me to meet that flower prince, right? I am really feeling bad for not rejecting him early and making things clear. Maybe I should not be worried about being polite in things like these."

King Krisen let out a slight laugh, "Haha, don't worry about it. Now that I know you won't get along with the flower prince in a million years, I will make things clear to him so that you won't feel awkward."

Yuria smiled but still asked in concern, "Will there be any problem?" 

King Krisen shook his head, "What problem? I am your father, and if he wants to marry my daughter, he would have to get through me first. But don't worry, the Lancasters are not people who act upon petty things and destroy friendly relationships. If he is a mature kid, he will understand, or at least his father will."

Yuria felt relieved hearing that and then asked, "So now that I got my things sorted out, can we cancel the alchemy competition?"
