Chapter 1010

Jasmine\'s quick response silenced Li Shuang. Li Shuang just felt morally wrong to hide it from Revalor, but she also agreed with Jasmine about the loss of trust and the emperor\'s dignity. If the issue was known by the others, it would tarnish the emperor\'s name for sure, not something she wanted by suggesting the idea.         

Both suggestions were intended to protect Tang Shaoyang\'s reputation among his subordinates. As the Queen of a kingdom, she knew well how important reputation was. Even for her, she was still troubled by the nobles with her clean reputation.     

Aleesa let out a sigh, "Even though I pity Revalor, both suggestions are good." She voiced her agreement, choosing to protect her husband\'s reputation even though it was morally wrong.     

Kang Xue tapped Tang Shaoyang\'s shoulder and smiled at him, "We are here to provide you with a suggestion. The decision is still in your hand. We will trust and follow you regardless of your decision."     

That was the second big issue for Tang Shaoyang. He let out a sigh and leaned his back on the chair with his shoulders slumped down. He was for sure did not want to lose Revalor\'s service, a Legendary Rank. Marshal Alton might be a Legendary Rank, but having two Legendary Ranks was for sure much better than one. On top of that, he did not want to lose one of his big vassals, the Elven Kingdom. Even though Revalor was no longer the King, he still had a deep influence on the kingdom as he had just recently abdicated the throne.     

\'If that\'s the case, following Jasmine\'s suggestion is the best….\' Tang Shaoyang thought so, but his heart was different. He just felt it was so wrong to do so. He also understood Revalor\'s perspective for someone who had experienced a similar case.     

The talk continued for another half an hour as the girls gave more suggestions, encouraging him to make the decision, and giving their support. He felt like he was the luckiest man alive to have his girls get along with each other and give their support to someone like him.     

"I have made up my mind!"

Revalor\'s frown never left his forehead as he headed toward the conference room. He felt uneasy when he received the summon from the emperor. He tried to recall his memories if he did something wrong to the emperor. The thing he was most afraid of was that the summon might be related to the recent rebellion.     

The damage from the rebellion was minuscule in his eyes, but he heard from the others that this was the biggest damage ever since the empire was founded. He did not want to be related to the recent rebellion in any way, lest he would incur the emperor\'s wrath. However, no matter how hard he thought, he could not think of anything that might offend the emperor. The emperor\'s summon confused him.     

"I will find out once I meet with Your Majesty…."     

*** ***     

Revalor stood at the end of the table as the chair behind him swirled. His eyes opened out as if his eyes almost popped out of its socket. He looked at his wife, who kept her gaze down to the floor. The shock overwhelmed him as he could not believe what he had just heard.     

The shock was just a brief moment before the anger got into his head, clouding his mind as he slammed his palm onto the table. The table exploded as the debris flew everywhere. But he quickly realized that he was in front of the emperor. He realized that his action could negatively affect the Elven Kingdom.     

Revalor was conflicted as his gaze fell on Tang Shaoyang, who had his head bowed toward him. The debris was reflected by the mana barrier, and no one was hurt by his action. His gaze was on the emperor and Ava, back and forth.     

The former Elven King was so angry that he wanted to fight the emperor to the death, but he knew that his people were on the line if he did so. But he could not forgive the emperor who took his wife away. In the end, the former king let out a long sigh, "Can I have a conversation with Ava alone?"     

Revalor did not use formality anymore; he just could not do it. He lost all respect for the emperor.     

"You can, but no violence," Tang Shaoyang raised his head and met with Revalor\'s gaze, "I apologize not to be forgiven; I apologize because I made a mistake. I understand if you don\'t forgive me because I have done the most terrible thing to you. I…."     

He wanted to say that he would do anything to amend his mistake, but he quickly realized that it would hurt Revalor\'s pride even more. What he had done to Revalor was not something that could be compensated. He bowed his head once more and left the room for the couple to talk.     

Revalor\'s chest heaved up and down as he almost exploded in anger, but he managed to hold it back. He took a deep breath as he loosened his clenched fist, then his eyes fell on Ava\'s stomach, "Is that His Majesty\'s child?"     

"What a stupid question. Of course, it was His Majesty\'s child," Revalor let out mocking laughter, mocking himself for what happened to him, "But why? Why did you do this to me? Am I not good enough for you?"     

The words were filled with emotion, anguish, and also anger. His voice cracked as he still could not believe that this had happened to him.     

Ava raised her head and met her husband\'s gaze. Her gaze was also full of emotion, but there was no regret in it, more to guilt, "I…." After hesitation, Ava told her husband what happened that led to the current situation.         

Revalor ended up laughing, laughter full of mockery when he heard that the reason was him and his son. She gave her body to the emperor to ensure his survival. It was a contract, but the contract became poison, causing his wife to fall for the emperor.     

"Is it because he is the Emperor, and I am nothing but a mere slave?"     

Ava shook her head, "That\'s not it. He has something special that only I can describe. It\'s not about your status or his status; it\'s more than that."     

Revalor looked up, letting out a bitter laugh, "What about Aleesa? Does she know about this?"     

"Aleesa knew about this three weeks ago, and we held a meeting before meeting you. We actually agreed to keep this secret from you. The original plan is to send me into the Dimensional Tower until I give birth or fake my death and live in seclusion. However, His Majesty decided to meet you and apologize. He said you don\'t deserve to be treated like this and deserve to know everything," Ava told everything, including the meeting with the other girls.     

"I…." Revalor stopped and let out another sigh, "I think this is enough. However, I am telling you that our children deserve to know this. I want them to know the reason why we split up. This is enough; I don\'t think I want to continue the conversation with you anymore."     

As soon as Revalor said that, the door opened. Origin informed Tang Shaoyang that the talk was over, so he returned to the room. He was afraid that Revalor would turn violent and hurt Ava.     

"From now you, you and your son are free from the contract and oath!" The sudden announcement surprised Revalor, "This is not compensation, but because I don\'t really deserve your service for the terrible thing I did to you. This is not compensation! You are free, free to return to the Ortis Continent, free to explore my world, and if you still want to serve me, I will gladly accept you."     

Tang Shaoyang reminded the former king that it was not compensation. Any form of compensation would just hurt Revalor even more. He was aware of that and explained. While he was cruel to his enemy, he was not cruel enough to his people, so he canceled the contract and the oath.     

Tang Shaoyang took out the contract and burned the scroll in front of Revalor. As for the oath, Selena already canceled the oath. Revalor was free from the bound.
