Chapter 1296:

"Wargh!"

Silvia shrieked in horror as she spun in the air.

The Strada is still young and its wings are undeveloped. However, it still managed to fling Silvia's bodacious body into the air like a sack of refuse.

Silvia will definitely be hurt if she falls from that height.

It might even take her life.

The guards gasped while the students yelled. A figure intervened when it looked like Silvia was about to turn into a bloody mess upon hitting the floor.

The mysterious hero appeared where she would have landed. He caught her in his arms.

Silvia's body also slowed down as if something buoyed her descent.

Silvia slowly opened her eyes. She was expecting a hard landing and a painful time but she didn't get any of that.

"Hmph."

Wu Yan snorted.

He placed Silvia down.

“I will deal with you later.”

Wu Yan said that before rushing toward the rampaging Strada. In a swift leap, he took to the sky. Then, he crashed down.

Right down on the Strada.

Bam

The Strada got struck like somebody rammed a mountain into it.

The Strada roared when it assumed somebody rode it without permission again.

“Keep messing around and you see what happens…”

The icy voice turned the dragon into a meek doll. It immediately shed its aggression.

That was a warning from a higher being.

Mwuu

The dragon sounded like it is begging for forgiveness. It turned from a rampaging dragon into an obedient dog.

Wu Yan’s intimidating pressure is on another level from the immature dragon’s perspective.

It laid on the ground in a pose of submission.

“I-It stopped…”

The guards were shocked to see this. They identified the assailant.

“He is Rowan, Rowan Randall!”

“Yeah…”

“That Godly Rider?”

“Now, I see why he can subjugate Maestros.”

“A-awesome…”

The guards’ admiration drowned Silvia in a sea of sadness.

Why can’t I do the same?

Silvia left with tears in the corners of her eyes.

Silvia turned around only for a hand to pull her back.

And…

Slap

Silvia was stunned by the crisp sound of a slap.

Even the guards, Rebecca, and Ash were surprised to see Wu Yan slap the princess.

Silvia touched her slapped cheek. She looked at Wu Yan who is still in a post-slap pose.

Wu Yan just slapped her.

“You…”

Silvia couldn’t believe it.

“You… hit me?”

“Yeah! I hit you!”

Wu Yan admitted it. He is dead serious about showing his anger.

“What? Princess going to punish me for my act of impudence?”

Silvia yelled at him.

“Why did you slap me?”

“I don’t know, why don’t you ask that empty head of yours?”

Wu Yan chastised the princess in front of many students.

“Do you know how close you were to dying?”

“So what? What does it have to do with you?!”

Silvia was hysterical. She vented her frustration and anger.

“What does my death have to do with you? Is it because you would find my corpse annoying?”

“Yeah, your death is irrelevant to me but you should find a better place to commit suicide.”

Wu Yan grinned.

“Let us see if ‘The Fourth Princess died because she tried to ride someone’s Pal’ or will ‘The Fourth Princess killed herself when she lost in a friendly duel’ sound better in the press!”

“You!”

Silvia’s face turned pale in an instant.

“What? Cat got your tongue?”

Wu Yan didn’t spare her.

“You tried to ride someone’s Pal. I am guessing you did that because you were frustrated that other people could do it while you couldn’t. In a moment of irrationality, you tried to do the same and got yourself into this mess. Is that correct?”

“You… You don’t know me!”

Silvia yelled back.

Wu Yan snapped.

“Actually, I don’t know you. I also don’t know what led you down that road of yours. However, unlike you, I can’t watch as a friend of mine goes down the path of self-destruction.”

“F-friend…”

Silvia flinched.

“Riding other people’s Pal doesn’t prove you’re stronger. You won’t become stronger that way.”

Wu Yan pointed at the Strada.

“If you think you’re tough just because you can ride that wimp of a dragon, go right ahead.”

Silvia was silenced.

“No matter what dragon you can ride, it is way more fun to see your dragon growing stronger. Don’t you get it?”

Wu Yan tried to persuade Silvia.

“If you want to become stronger, Lancelot is more than enough. He is your partner!”

“If your definition of power is doing outrageous things like other people’s Pal then you should pack up and go be a proper princess.”

Wu Yan ignored Silvia. He left the place.

Silvia touched her cheek while staring at Wu Yan’s receding figure.

In the student council room, Ash admired Wu Yan’s actions.

“He is truly powerful...”

Rebecca smiled. Her radiant smile lit up the room…

After leaving everyone behind, Wu Yan sighed.

“Cossette, I know you’re there…”

“You’re probably the only one who has the galls to slap a princess. Lord Rowan…”

Next to a tree, Cosette appeared.

“The princess will probably be crestfallen after your slap.”

“She’s stubborn as a mule.”

Wu Yan sighed.

“Please, keep an eye on her, make sure she doesn’t do any more dumb things…”

“I will, Lord Rowan, this lowly maid has seen your teaching technique.”

Cosette curtsied.

“Please continue looking out for the Princess too, Lord Rowan.”

Cosette turned around and went for Silvia.

“Remember to give me some sweet bonus next time!”

“Maid is a gift too!”

Cosette left with that line.
