Rise of The Anti God

Maximus came forward and said with a bright smile, "Your Highness, may this pill make your goddess-like beauty even more stunning."

In the end Maximus couldn\'t really think of another pill to concoct because of the state his mind was in and at the same time he wanted to prove his skills to her since this wasn\'t a common beauty pill one could find in the market.

Yuria\'s brows pulled together, seeing that it was yet another beauty pill, but when she closely inspected the yellow pill, she couldn\'t make sense of some things and asked, "I have never seen this kind of pill before."

Maximus said with a proud smile, "It\'s because I am the one who came up with the formula for this pill. It is the first one of its kind, and unlike ordinary beauty pills we find in the market, this one makes your skin appear more radiant while providing shine to your beautiful hair. I have been working on this since the day I met you."

\'This guy...how come she never told me someone as desperate as him was coveting her…\' Damien inwardly was surprised to see that the Vanishing Flower Prince was so much infatuated with Yuria.

He didn\'t feel threatened since he knew Yuria would never reciprocate Maximus\' feelings.

But still, seeing the yellow pill Maximus had concocted, Damien had to admit that he was impressed with Maximus\' ability and knowledge to come up with a medical formula on his own, even if it took him more than five years.

Damien realized that his version of beauty pills might be similar to Maximus\' but better.

Yuria as a woman, was indeed happy to get something that could highlight her beauty better, and out of all the pills she inspected so far, she liked this the most though it was not enough to make her feel touched.

But she didn\'t care about it since she knew that she was like a stranger to all the participants here, and as for Maximus, she never showed him her true self.

"Thank you, Prince Maximus. I am glad that you came up with this pill for me," She then passed the pill to the head alchemist while Maximus softly nodded and left the queue.

Now Yuria saw that only Tristen was left, and seeing him look at her so intently made her feel strange since she should have felt uncomfortable by an unknown man looking at her like that, but at the same time, she felt as if his eyes were trying to tell her something.

Damien stepped forward and passed the pale silver pill he had concocted and didn\'t say anything, waiting for Yuria to inspect it.

Kale smirked, seeing Tristen pass the silver pill to her and seeing how he was unable to recognize the pill, he inwardly laughed, thinking that Tristen messed up and ended up with a defective product.

He was waiting for Tristen to make a fool out of himself while feeling slightly unsure about his pill.

He had seen Maximus taking some medical ingredients that were necessary to concoct a standard beauty pill usually used by women who looked in their forties or fifties.

So he concocted the same since he didn\'t get any other idea and came up with the best reason he could think of to tell Yuria while showing her his pill.

Now he was keenly watching Tristen to see what he was going to say about his failed product.

Yuria\'s brows knit together when she felt that she couldn\'t make heads and tails about this pill since she had never seen such kinds of pills before, nor was it similar to any other pill.

So she couldn\'t help but ask, "I am sorry, I do not recognize this pill. Care to tell me what it does?"

She, however, knew that it was a Rank 3 pill and wondered why Tristen made a low-ranked pill when everyone else concocted Rank 5 pills.

Kale couldn\'t contain his smile seeing that the princess realized Tristen\'s pill was a failed one and was trying her best not to humiliate him since he was a prince of the Gale Empire after all.

The audience was also puzzled since even the experts among them couldn\'t identify the pale silver pill.

Most of them came up with their own speculations, but when they discussed it with their colleagues, everyone seemed to have their own opinion, especially because it was a Rank 3 pill, and they couldn\'t guess what Tristen was thinking.

Since Tristen Gale was a prince, the experts didn\'t feel that he would concoct something to make a fool out of himself.

Maximus was of the notion as well. He knew that even if Tristen was rumored to be a licentious prince, he was a genius when it came to ethereal cultivation and was not a fool but a sly fellow.

So he couldn\'t help but think Tristen was up to something.

Damien said with a smile, "Would Your Highness have the faith to try swallowing it and see for yourself since it would be way better than just explaining it."

The head alchemist frowned and said in a respectful tone, "Your Highness, Prince Tristen, forgive my impudence but—-"

"It\'s alright. I will take it," Yuria said after feeling the sense of confidence in Tristen\'s words thinking that Tristen wouldn\'t give her a poisoned pill anyway in front of everyone.

The head alchemist showed a worried expression, "But Your Highness, even I can\'t tell what kind of pill this is. Without the proper knowledge, we must never ingest a pill for various reasons. I am sure Your Highness understands this, right?"

"Thank you for your concern, senior. But rest assured, it\'s not like anything bad would happen to me, right? I am sure Prince Tristen had done his best here to make the best pill he could in such a short time."

The head alchemist felt tongue-tied and even glanced at King Krisen to see if he had any objections but was surprised to see that he was sitting with a calm expression.

The audience was surprised that the princess didn\'t show any hesitation at all to swallow an unknown pill. But then they felt that it was okay to trust Tristen since he was a prince of the Gale Empire who wouldn\'t possibly do anything to hurt her in public.

Yuria inwardly was a little hesitant about taking this pill, but since she felt that the ingredients themselves were of no harm, she took a deep breath before swallowing it.

Damien eagerly looked on since the pill he concocted was something he obviously came up with on his own and was something he never tested on others as well.

After a few moments, Yuria\'s expression became puzzled since she felt that nothing was happening, and even the audience was wondering what was the desired result of the pill since Yuria wasn\'t saying anything.

Kale felt a bit upset that the princess showed such faith in Tristen to swallow his pill but was eagerly waiting to see Tristen\'s pill cause a backfire and anger the princess.

Yuria looked at Tristen and said with knitted brows, "I am not feeling—" But suddenly, she swallowed her words as the pill inside her started to show its magic.
