Moreover, he wouldn't let anyone harm his wifey, he would do anything to keep Lia safe, even if it meant slaughtering the whole world. The fire in his eyes burned with a fierce resolve, a promise that he would become the strongest, no matter the cost.

Rio's actions were driven by his one million visions shown by Goddess. He knew that Drake was not to be trusted, and his gut feeling was backed up by the countless visions he had seen, Drake was one of the main culprits who caused Lia's death.

His mind was made up, and he knew that he had to take drastic action to prevent any possible harm to his wife.

Even though he could have gone easy on Drake, but it was totally useless. He had tried to befriend Drake in many visions he saw, but it had always ended in betrayal. There was no way that Drake would be a good ally in the future because his hunger for power was bigger than his admiration for the girl he wanted to marry.

As the boy looked around the room, Rio's gaze fell on several familiar faces from the great clans that had been present during the war. Hatred flared within him, and he felt the urge to crush them all right away. But he knew that this wasn't the right time. He wasn't strong enough to take them on, and he didn't have a valid reason for killing them.

Although he was willing to kill them without any valid reason if it meant saving Lia, he knew he needed the power to face them all. Even in his million visions, he had failed to save Lia from dying despite being stronger than all of them.

Strength alone was not enough for Rio to achieve his ultimate goal. There was another crucial element that he needed: to find Layla. But according to Eve, he would have to wait for the right moment to meet her.

He could only let out a heavy sigh as he watched these double-faced people, knowing that they would be the ones to ignite the flames of war in the future, and ultimately bring harm to Lia.

Dylan watched in amazement as his daughter's future husband effortlessly defeated the heir of the Strongblaze family. Lia stood next to him, a proud smile on her face as she watched Rio in action.

The old man from the Cliffdane clan, who had been observing from the sidelines, could barely contain his astonishment at the sight before him.

The elder of the Strongblaze clan rushed towards the injured Drake, who was writhing in pain. He was eager to question the white-haired boy about how he could dare to badly injure a member of their clan and the elder wanted to punish Rio for his daring move.

However, he chose to remain silent, as he knew that it was Drake who had challenged Rio. Despite being older than Rio, Drake suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of the young boy.

The Emperor signaled a healer to attend to Drake's injuries and was taken aback by the unexpected outcome of the duel. However, he knew that it was Drake who had challenged Rio, so it wasn't any problem what the boy did for defending himself.

Despite his initial fears that Rio was only human, the Emperor was happy for his son-in-law. He recognized the strong love between Rio and Lia, which made him not take Rio as a threat.

"I trust that after witnessing Zero's incredible display of skill, none of you will question my decision to choose him as my son-in-law. Let us all enjoy the rest of the feast and celebrate this joyous occasion!" The Emperor's beaming smile widened as he made the announcement, and the room erupted in thunderous applause, their cheers echoing throughout the halls.

Rio walked towards Emperor and his girls, his head held high and his steps firm.

As he approached them, Dylan and the girls looked at him with curiosity, wondering how he became so powerful in such a short amount of time. He met their questioning gaze with a mysterious smile, causing the suspense to remain.

Lia had been without Rio for two long months, and the separation had been unbearable for her. Even though they had met just the day before, it felt like an eternity since she last held him close.

As Rio made his way towards her, her heart leaped with joy, and she could barely contain her feelings. She longed to run into his arms, to feel his warmth and embrace, but she managed to control herself in front of the guests as they were in the middle of a crowded room, and there were too many people watching. She didn't want to make a scene or draw unnecessary attention to themselves.

So, without a word, Lia stepped forward and interlocked her hands with Rio's, as if to claim him as her own. It was the least she could do to show him how much she missed him and how happy she was to be with him again.

The guests surrounding them came to congratulate her one by one on her twentieth birthday, but she seemed more focused on Rio than on the festivities around her.

Meanwhile, Helia and Nyla were busy mingling with the other guests. Lioness was introducing Nyla to her clan members, and the duo sisters were receiving warm greetings from many other guests. The girls' beauty and charm seemed to attract attention from everyone around them.

Rio saw a beautiful girl with light blonde hair approaching them. Her hair was like strands of golden sunshine, flowing down her back in soft waves. She wore a stunning blue dress that perfectly complimented her fair complexion.

He couldn't help but notice the way her curves hugged the dress, emphasizing her firm and rounded bosom.
