Chapter 2

I stood up and wore my glass heels. I nodded to both my mom and Xia to express that I am now ready.

I lead the way and opened the door. I can hear the praisings of my people and the discussion of the council. The corridor was empty because everyone is gathering at the Royal Hall.

I froze for a second infront of the giant double door made up of gold and pearl. The noises was much louder. I can sense the presence of the strict council.

Using my both hands, I opened the door and was welcomed by the bright lights of the hall. I covered my eyes. I waited for my eyes to adjust to the light before I walk again.

The crowd silenced the moment they saw me. Dad was sitting infront and drinking wine with his friends. On his side is the council, looking at me sharply while observing.

"Princess Mei Feng of Nánbian Empire. The only heiress of the dynasty. You're the gem of your family, I wish that you'll not disappoint them" one of the council said

I went to the center. Being surrounded by the expectation of the crowd suffocates me. The head council raised his hand dramatically opened his palms as black mist started coming out from it.

The mist surrounded me and in a blink of an eye, I was with a pack of demon wolfs. I took a deep breath. I opened my both palms and released a surge of water. It wasn't enough for the demons to vanish.

I jumped in the mid air while spinning. I raised my right hand to summon my weapon. I'll try to fight them in combat.

A crystal blue sword is starting to form at my hand. My spinning was too fast that the demons can't even get near me. I teleported back at the floor and slashed in half the remaining enemies.

A loud growl was heard from the demon wolves in pain. The rest surrounded me with death glares. I closed my eyes and focus on their presence.

They are getting closer to me. I can hear the murmurs of the crowd. I even heard the worried voice of my mom. Just wait for it. Wait for it.

A opened my eyes and a loud bang was heard. The demon wolves was drowned in my powerful magic. They vanished. The hall was covered by great silence.

Then a slow clap deaf everyone. "Impressive Li Mei Feng-" I cutted her words

"Princess. Princess Li Mei Feng" I said in a monotone

The lady council just smiled at me and clapped again. I didn't even show my full potential. Was that all? I was expecting more than this. Tss.

But I am thankful that there's no even a single sweat escaped my body. And that's impressive.

I walked with grace towards the elevated part of this hall. My dad smiled at me proudly and was holding the crown. It was made of clear blue crystal designed with pearls. It has shells on it's tip.

"Now I pronounce you as the official Princess of the Nánbian Empire" he announced

And the next thing I heard is the overwhelming claps from the crowd. I did it.
