My Wife is the Asura Empress
chapter-17

He stood up and looked at her in confusion. He couldn't understand anything why she did it to him.

What was he supposed to do now after what she did?

Her voice sounded "I'm already done with my message to you so you don't ask any nonsense in the future. For the training, I'll attack you from here and you have to dodge it."

He frowned hearing her unreasonable words but he was helpless as She didn't even wait for him to reply. She brought out a dagger from thin air. Its deadly sharp blade shone in the light of the illuminating stones that she had already swung in his direction.

Before Rio could even blink his eyes a sharp blade tore apart his newly bought robe and pierced his flesh on the right shoulder.

"Argh…" He cried out in pain.

Blood gushed out from it as he felt a great deal of pain spreading. He felt as if hundreds of bees had stung him in the same place.

He was from earth and he never experienced a battle where someone used a dagger to pierce his body.

There were fights where people used their fists or legs to attack him but no one used such a rough way as a deadly sharp dagger.

"Don't stay there like a fool. I won't stop attacking you until your body is decorated with ten daggers and gives me pleasure. Your job is to avoid as much as possible." Saying that Helia threw more daggers at him.

*Swoosh!*

The air vibrated as it traveled towards him rapidly.

Hearing her words and experiencing her actions, he felt he was done for as every cell of his body screamed at him to run away.

He moved to the side to avoid her daggers but he was too late and three more daggers stabbed into his right hand tearing apart his clothes along with the flesh.

Blood flowed from his right hand continuously and his body felt heavy from the weight of the dagger dyed in his own blood.

He felt so weak in his heart and knees that he knelt on the ground.

"Is that how much you humans can endure? Let me find out for myself." Helia's chilly voice sounded.

Another six daggers flew towards him and pierced his flesh in both of his thighs.

He collapsed to the ground and his body cried in agony.

He was taking longer breaths and his body was shaking as the pain was invading his mind and body. His clothes turned red from his own blood as they flowed on the ground.

He felt as if he was losing consciousness and his body becoming numb.

However, at that exact moment, the daggers vanished from his body and a soothing green light embraced him to release him from his misery.

The agonizing pain went away and his flesh healed at a faster pace. Within five seconds, he was fully healed.

He felt as if he just had a nightmare. He looked towards the source of his living nightmare who was looking at him with an amusing cold smile.

She looked as if she was a devil, disguised as a beautiful young maiden to seduce him and release him from his tormenting pain by taking his life.

She hurled several more daggers at him but this time he didn't waste time.

He rolled to the ground and dodged her attacks.

Those blades stabbed into the grassy field. It cut down the green blade of grasses.

She raised her eyebrows as he dodged them and recalled the daggers as they disappeared from the spot.

Grass blades that were broken, recovered to normal just how Rio healed.

She threw ten daggers at him fiercely and he jumped to the side to avoid them.

He felt a tingling feeling on his back and two of the daggers dig into the flesh of his leg. He grabbed them while crying out in pain and threw them out.

As he did it, he rolled to the ground instinctively to avoid the upcoming daggers which stabbed the place he was before.

He got better at avoiding the dagger as time passed but daggers still pierced him from time to time.

As he improved at dodging the coming attacks, she increased the number of daggers she threw from ten to thirty.

He was pierced by ten daggers more than twenty times during the training.

After pinning him to the ground with ten more daggers she came to a stop.

"Tomorrow I'll wait for you here in the morning." Saying that she started walking out of the battle arena building.

"Wait…" He called out with an agonizing voice.

"What?" Her infuriating voice sounded.

"I have no clue why you hate me but…" He paused and stood up while removing daggers from his body one by one. His wounds healed on their own as the healing green light from the trees enveloped him as he took out the blades.

Helia narrowed her eyes at him.

He continued with a determined voice while throwing away the last dagger, "One day I will make you regret it that you will cry for how you treated me unfairly today."

"I will never have any guilt for treating a 'garbage' like a 'shit'." She mocked him.

"Wanna bet?" Rio amusingly said and stared into her red eyes that were filled with coldness.

"There is nothing to bet about for such a useless thing. You can never make me feel regret for my action today." She snorted at him.

"Are you scared?" He smiled at her to provoke her more.

"You…" She glared at him with her red eyes full of resentment and naked murderous intent.

"Hahaha…I can understand You just know how to oppress the weak and nothing more. But mark my word, One day you will regret and shed tears for your unreasonable action of today." He was making her walk into the trap that he was weaving so he repeated his words again to provoke her.

She took a long breath and said, "I, Helia Rainheart, swear on heaven and my core if I ever regret my action today, for making this disgusting creature in front of me, suffer in pain I will accept him as my lord."

A golden light flashed and enveloped her then vanished away.

"What was that?" Rio was taken aback.

"Unbreakable oath. If I ever regret What I did today to you, my core will shatter and my body will crumble. But I'm 100% confident that I will have no guilt even cutting you in thousands of pieces right here right now." Helia proudly smiled.

"At least you should have said 'I will apologize to him' or maybe 'I won't hate every human blindly without a reason', But why did you have to say I will accept him as my lord? I don't need a lady like you when I already have an angel-like Wife who is the most gorgeous in the world." Rio berated her and shook his head.

She thought he is a fool for declaring and giving someone randomly the top spot.

"Just because you find her pretty, she became the most beautiful? What a fool…" She mocked him and snorted.

"I bet even all the asura in this world would have the same opinion as me and find her as the supreme epitome of beauty.

She is beyond the realm of cuteness. Let me say, she is sexy and damn attractive. Her mesmerizing jewel-like red eyes, her beautiful smile, her sense of fashion, her sweet style. Everything she does, everything she says. Makes me cherish her more. She is unforgettably the cutest… She flutters my heart as she is my closest bond in this world. " Rio spoke as his eyes were enamored.

"Who is your wife?" She didn't want to believe him but she still asked while narrowing her eyes at him.

He cast his Devlin Transformation skill and spoke word by word as if announcing the whole world.

"My Wife is The Asura Empress" His crimson hair turned white and grew bigger to the neck length size. His sea-green eyes became red and a protective layer enveloped his skin that boosted his aura.

Helia stumbled back as she heard his words and saw his Devlin transformation.
