Chapter 763 She Was Devoured (Part One)
Because of the things that Harper said, a glum expression descended on Lance''s face. For the
moment, he was in a dilemma. He could not decide what to do. At the same time, Diana thought for a
while before suddenly rising to her feet. Pointing at Francis with her finger, she confessed, "It''s him. He
set a trap for Princess Harper. Actually, Prince Kile of the Wonder Kingdom wasn''t the target at all. It
was anyone who would approach Princess Harper, because as long as someone stood in that position,
the mechanism would be triggered."
It was Francis'' turn to have a cold expression in his eyes. He was extremely annoyed by the fact that
Diana didn''t hesitate to betray him. But at that time, reality dawned on him. He no longer had any
bargaining chip at all. In order to protect herself, Diana ratted on him. He knew that if he sat still and did
nothing, it would be like waiting for his death. There was no doubt that Matthew and Harper would
capture him on that same day.
In the blink of an eye, Francis decided what he should do. To everyone''s surprise, he took big and
heavy steps towards Harper. Among all of the people present, Harper had the weakest martial arts
skills. As long as he could take her as a hostage, Matthew would not dare to act recklessly. And as long
as Matthew remained passive, no one else would dare to do anything. They would be considered as
Matthew''s enemy if they even took a small step.
Francis thought that his n was perfect, but he had no idea that Harper had been hiding her true
strength. For some time, she had no idea about the strong power inside of her. But after she regained
her memory and realized her true abilities, she didn''t want to reveal it to anyone who wasn''t that close
to her.
Upon seeing that Francis was dashing towards her, Harper could not help but quietly sneer at him in
her heart. She thought that Francis was so foolish to think that it would be easy to attack her. When she
was about to counter-attack against Francis, Kile suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Ouch! Which bastard pushed me?!" Kile eximed, pretending that he was pushed forward by
someone to stop Francis, but actually, he took the initiative to rush towards Francis.
As a result, Francis was so enraged that he immediately pped Kile. Then, he opened up his hand in
an attempt to grasp Harper''s neck.

"Watch out!" Kile shouted.
In a sudden turn of events, Harper took a step back and suddenly hit Francis with her palm. They drew
back from each other as soon as the first round of confrontation was finished. The astonishment in
Francis'' eyes was beyond any word because he just realized that Harper hadpletely regained her
martial arts skills. He then thought to himself, ''How could it be possible? If she has truly recovered her
martial arts skills, at that time, how could she have... Was she testing me back then?''
Francis felt chills down his spine at this thought. He could have given up his life for Harper, but
apparently, she was only testing him. Instantly, he made up his mind to drag her down with him. "If I
should die, I''m going to make you mypany on the way to hell!"
Once again, Francis attacked Harper, this time, in a much more destructive way. It was as if he didn''t
have any regard for his life anymore. To say the least, it stunned everyone present. Finally, Matthew
thought that it was time to help his wife. However, when he was about to run towards them, the Holy
Maiden of the South Kingdom showed up out of nowhere and ran to help her. As a result, she blocked
his way.
"Get out of my way!" Boiling with rage, Matthew didn''t hesitate to strike the Holy Maiden of the South
Kingdom for being on his way. It seemed like the Holy Maiden didn''t expect that Matthew would attack
her, so she wasn''t able to react for a few moments. It made Matthew''s strike look more severe than it
really was.
"Your Grace!" Because of what Matthew did, the situation immediately turned more chaotic. The people
of the South Kingdom could no longer sit still and merely watch from their seats. They all stood up to
stop Matthew. In their eyes, Matthew striking the Holy Maiden of the South Kingdom was an
unforgivable crime.
Somehow, the chaos indirectly helped Francis. While everyone was distracted, heunched a fatal
attack on Harper with all of his strength. Although Harper had regained her memory and all of her
martial arts skills, the truth of the matter was that she couldn''t defeat Francis by herself. At best, their
fight could only end in a draw. However, it was obvious that Francis wanted to kill her regardless of his
own life. So it would be hard for her to hold on for an extended amount of time.
"I hate you! How could you treat me like this? I treated you with utmost sincerity with all of my heart, but
you fooled me over and over again. Harper, I hate you! I hate you with every fiber of my being!" Francis
eximed, gritting his teeth with too much hatred.
With a frown, Harper ignored his remarks and concentrated on the fight. She knew that she couldn''t
lose focus for even a second. On the other hand, Becky had been hiding in the sidelines. Her eyes
were filled with resentment for she didn''t expect that Harper would have treated Francis this way. She
was determined to make Harper pay for what she had done.
"Go to hell!" Becky eximed, summoning all of her strength while she dashed towards Harper.
Because of her sudden attack, it was toote for Harper to withdraw her hands and deal with Becky. So
she didn''t have any choice but to use her spiritual power to protect the center of her back.
When Becky''s palm finally made contact with Harper''s back, Harper felt her blood surging. Despite
being protected by her spiritual energy, she was extremely hurt. That was the final straw. Harper
ceased in hiding her real strength. Instead, she burst out all of her spiritual power without dy,
throwing Becky away from her. At the same time, everyone felt that the earth began to tremble and the
Holy Mountain began to sway. They were all swept away by a strange force that they didn''t understand.
The sudden change in the situation made everyone confused. The feeling of vibration under their feet
was so surreal. It didn''t feel natural or even possible.
"Is this an earthquake?" Miguel asked in surprise. They were on a mountain, so it would be hard for
them to escape if an earthquake was really happening.
Naturally, the Holy Maiden was different from everyone. Her face instantly turned pale. She then turned
to Harper in disbelief and asked, "Why did you..."
However, Harper couldn''t feel anything. She couldn''t even move any of her muscles. A strong force
had grabbed her in a rush. She had used up all her spiritual power in order to resist the miracle force
that she was too weak to resist.
"Harp," Matthew called her. He rushed towards her as soon as he could stand steadily. However,
before he could reach her, a powerful force threw him away. Harper was also tossed away by a gust of
force.
"Harp!"
"Your Highness." Everyone watched as Harper rose from the ground. For a few seconds, she was in
mid-air like a leaf being blown by the wind. Suddenly, it was like a force was dragging her.
