Chapter 223: Into the WarFront
"What is that? Your commander got killed so easily?"
"No your highness, Kijor is a very strong man. There’s no way-" The crown prince raised his hand and the King immediately shut up.
"Denmir" the crown prince said.
"A vampire" the shadow beneath him responded as it gently whirled. "It would be wise not to engage him, he seems very strong, a count at least"
-Swooosh- something sped past him, he sighed immediately. "She never listens to me"
"This might be the best opportunity to witness the extent of her strength" Denmir said.
Vandraak finished second man in black armor by removing his heart without he even noticed.
He turned back, "if it has been the former me, I wouldn’t have noticed your presence, Ethara Queen of despair...when last was it, since I saw your ugly face..."
A white haired, thin and black eyes lady showed herself. "How did you get such a big powerup, I had my doubt when I first felt it, you have certainly grown stronger which should be impossible"
"Yes, it should be impossible but I serve a master that makes less sense of impossibility...so I have not only gotten stronger but with the grace of my master can still continue to grow... I see you have a master too...what must I say, he seems ...weak"
"... you seem to be living a good life if you can still joke around... but I never thought you would betray your master after he got his real name stolen"
"...? What the hell are you talking about, my master is alive and well, in fact he has been bestowed a new name by our new master"
"Let’s see how long your bluffing last after you get your life drained my me" she dashed at him but instead she got grabbed from the back.
"...impo- " he threw her and she crashed into the wooden wall of the camp and crashed outside, before she stood he stomped her on her chest.
"B-bastard!! How did you get this fast?!" She yelled.
"I told you... I am now a count vampire, you have rolled with our kind long enough for you to know how dangerous we are...now should I kill you or do you want to make a run for your life?"
"I’ll kill you!!!" Her white hair rose up and grabbed Vandraak’s neck, wrist and leg.
-Woosh-
All his body was set on black fire. Her hair burned and she immediately crawled backwards, "abyssal flames? Why does a vampire like you have an abyssal flame"
"It seems you have really become dump, I said my master gifted it to me since he is the master of the abyssal flames, this is a small part of his authority over the flames."
"What monster do you serve?!!!" She yelled as she crawled backwards.
He slowly moved towards her, "oh oh...don’t be so scared, we are just getting started..." he looked back, "why did you have to come?"
"Well this is an important job that will contribute greatly to Master’s plan, I can’t have you fooling around, plus Master is here to meet an important guest" Ben said to him.
"Huh? Where is - " Vandraak looked ahead and smiled, ’that movement, it was like the wind’
"Hello Crown Prince" Reinard said as he approached the crown prince.
Denmir rose sharply and covered possessed the crown prince, he dashed at Reinard as fast as he could but on getting within Rein’s range, he got punched in the stomach he was about to fly off but got caught by Reinard before the impact even ended.
"Tell your evil spirit to back off before I kill him" Reinard said while raising the crown prince’s neck in his hand.
"It’s alright Denmir" the black shadow began to clear off slowly and Rein dropped the crown prince as it did.
"You are Duke Erin’s son, should I be concerned as to why you are here in the Fenrir Kingdom’s war?"
"I was just passing by, and I saw the crown prince and thought of what great opportunity it would be to greet your imperial highness"
The crown prince giggled softly, ’what an obvious lie, is he telling me to my face that he won’t tell me why?’, "do you have any idea what this incident could cause you, even if you were a part of this war, showing your face was a reckless move to make, I could go back, tell the emperor and make him pour all his army on you and give you a wretched end"
Rein made an irritated face, ’Well I wasn’t interested in seeing you, but since Yhuzia demands that this was a nice time to show my face to the soldiers of Perrigwyn whom we’d be conquering soon, in order to make them submit when they see my strength. I don’t even know what to say...’
"..." Rein closed his eyes pretending to be in deep thought.
The crown prince found the situation a bit awkward. "What are you doing right now?"
"Hyaaaaaaaa-"
-whooooooosh-
A large blow.of wind followed as one of the King’s noble jumped in with his shark-like sword and attacked Rein.
"My prince please let’s use this opportunity to escape" Denmir urged the prince who turned away immediately and left along with the queen of despair. The wind cleared, Ben and Vandraak was standing in front of Rein, they seemed to jad been the one that blocked the sword.
Rein opened his eyes, ’his gone...that’s good, did that Yhuzia make a miscalculation, did he even know the crown prince would be here and yet he told me to come... isn’t that risky, considering that my identity is still being hidden’ he looked at the surprised guy who just attacked him, ’now to make the soldiers overwhelmed...’ Rein faced the soldiers and talked gently but still all of them could hear.
"Who is your strongest soldiers?"
"Huh...young man, you must be full of yourself!", ’I can’t believe the prince left us and ran on his own...he even left his army, what a coward’ the king walked out heavily, with his great sword.
"I will teach you some lesson today, Marquis Dearer you can go back to the lines. I will take care of this one"
"No, you can’t...both of you can stay" Rein said.
"What?" Both of them exclaimed.
Rein’s expression did not changed, he just kept looking with an helpless face.
"This young man, thinks he can take the two of us alone, he makes me laugh" the King yelled at the soldiers who have already circled them.
"My son Ti’eil, take up your sword"
The prince immediately withdrew his two swords and moved forward.
"..." Rein just looked and said nothing.’is this guy crazy, or is it the overconfidence a king has’
{Right now, Master is looking very young}
{I am 101% sure he has underestimated your capabilities}
Rein smiled, ’I might as well take this moment to enjoy fights like old time’ Rein withdrew the blacksword and white dragon.
"My lord, it will be a disgrace upon me, if you fight this little duck" Ben said.
"Master, I can take care of him, I am very confident in my skills" Vandraak said immediately.
Rein sighed, "I know you both are great but please spare me this moment, it’s been a moment since I enjoyed a fight, I’m trying to take it slow and enjoy it."
"Oh..." Ben moved back a bit, "enjoy yourself my lord" he said.
Rein looked at the blonde haired prince. "You could die from this match"
"What is more fulfilling than to die for the sake of my kingdom, besides I’m sure I can take you out, since the two powerful guys protecting you will not interfere."
"Tsk tsk" Vandraak shook his head at the prince.
"Die!!!" He shouted as he dashed at Rein.
Rein slowly observed him from head to toe, ’sometimes I wish I can just turn off this nirvana realm, but I have used it so much its a part of me, right now he’s taking about ten minutes to get to me because I am perceiving from nirvana not to say, from his arm movements to his leg movements every single thing is full of flaws, he seemed to have trained in a particular pattern, that’s a dumb thing to do, one would be readable that way... I really wanted to enjoy’ Rein waited for his sword to reach within range and then parried it by swing his sword, the sword flew off the hand of the prince and he fell on his knees.
’What the hell is that power?!’ He asked himself, ’the weight of the impact is so much that my legs are shaking, like I carried a a very heavy weight for too long’
Rein sighed, ’should I assume no one can give me fun anymore."
The wind blow suddenly seized for a moment then continued to blow softly, no human could have noticed it, but Rein and his subjects did.
Vandraak was the first to run in the direction where the monster was coming from, he rushed punches on whatever it was but the stranger blocked all of it, the faster Vandraak went the faster the stranger kept blocking it was after a short while of exchanging blows Vandraak jumped back and saw that the being he had been fighting had six hands.
Rein’s expression stiffened. Ben whirled his hand and different magic circles began to appear immediately after one disappeared. What Ben was doing wasn’t double casting, he wasn’t capable of double casting, atleast not yet, but he could do what is called immediate casting. Prepare three, four or more consecutive spells and the moment he activates the first, the rest activates like a chained reaction.
He fired all his dark magic at the stranger but the stranger brought out a weapon with one hand and began to swirl the weapon, a shield projected forward and blocked all the magical attacks.
Ben grinned, "oh-oh, a strong opponent, my lord permit me to take care of this one" he said.
Reinard looked at both of them, "do whatever you want...since I’m not interested in wasting my time on exarchs anyway." He said.
