Chapter 1067 Revenge From An Innocent Heart [Part 1]
Somewhere in the Skystead Alliance…
The Fourth Prince of the Ashina Kingdom, Prince Lionell, grinned ear to ear as he looked at the pretty young ladies who were captured by his subordinates. They were taken from the Merchant Caravan that they had ambushed a few hours ago.
After he had been exiled by his Father from the Ashina Kindom, he and his escorts had lived as bandits on the border between the Ashina Kingdom and their neighboring Kingdoms.
In truth, even though he had been exiled, he was still receiving support from his father. This provided him with enough resources to become a Bandit Leader terrorizing their neighbors from the Xynnar War Pact.
The reason why he was exiled was due to the incident that happened more than a year ago.
He and his men had sensed a great fluctuation while they were traveling together and found the entrance of the Forbidden Domain.
This was where he and his men had ambushed Lux, Iris, Cai, and the rest of the members of the young generation who hailed from the Six Kingdoms.
That incident triggered a series of events that made the Skystead Alliance and the Xynnar War Pact aware that the Six Kingdoms were monopolizing the Hidden Domain in order to gather resources behind their backs.
If it weren't for Vera's timely assistance, things might have gotten out of hand, allowing Prince Lionell to have his way with Iris, Henrietta, and the rest of the ladies who belonged to the Six Kingdoms.
Prince Lionell had always been a womanizer, and he wanted nothing more than to conquer beautiful women and add them to his trophies.
But after that incident, an enraged Alexander and Maximilian trampled the Capital City of the Ashina Kingdom, forcing the Skystead Alliance to step in and mediate the matter.
The King of the Ashina Kingdom was forced to accept his losses and even had to exile his own son from his kingdom.
Alexander and Maximilian wanted to kill the Prince, but they knew that this would not be the best course of action to take.
They were the leaders of their own people, and they had responsibilities to bear on their shoulders.
If they really offended the Skystead Alliance, this would mean war. That would have forced the Xynnar War Pact to take action as well.
This would only sour the relationship between the Xynnar War Pact and the Six Kingdoms, so the two Saints decided to compromise for the sake of their people.
"Good. Bring them all inside the cave," Prince Lionell said. "You guys know the drill. Make sure to not disturb me unless it is absolutely important, okay?"
"Yes, Boss!"
"Boss, after you're done, it will be our turn right?"
"Boss, I call dibs on that girl wearing red. Her body is so hot. Feel free to enjoy her first, so I can take my turn next!"
"You bastard! Trying to get ahead of us, huh?!"
Prince Lionell only smiled as he listened to the bickering of his subordinates.
He was truly in a good mood because it was very rare for him and his men to capture so many pretty ladies in one day.
But when his gaze landed on his right-hand man, he sighed because he knew that he had to share his spoils with this person.
Esmond, the Ranker who personally safe-guarded the Prince, only smiled from the side.
Unlike their subordinates who had to wait for second-hand goods to be handed over to them, he had the authority to take a few ladies with him to sample for himself.
Although Prince Lionell was reluctant to share his spoil with his personal bodyguard, he had no choice but to allow it since Esmond was his strongest protector at the moment.
After dividing the ladies, he ordered his men to bring his women to the cave, which they happily agreed to do.
Prince Lionell then walked towards the cave with a smile.
Although the number of the beauties he was going to embrace had decreased, they were still enough to satisfy him for an entire day.
But just as he was about to enter the entrance of the cave, a blob of water hit the back of his head, drenching his entire body.
"Who dares?!" Prince Lionell shouted as he turned around to look for the person who dared to play a prank on him.
The Bandits, who were still in the camp, looked at him in surprise after hearing him shout. But seeing that their Prince was drenched in water from head to toe, they immediately knew that something was wrong.
No one in the camp would do such a thing. If they did that, their heads were going to roll off their bodies.
Prince Lionell scanned the surroundings with bloodshot eyes until his gaze landed on something small and blue standing on top of the box of crates that they had looted from the Merchant Caravan.
The Fourth Prince of the Ashina Kingdom glared at the Baby Slime and raised his hand to conjure a Fireball.
A weak Creature that dared to humiliate him in front of his men was something that he wouldn't tolerate.
"Die!" Prince Lionell hurled the Fireball at the Baby Slime, not caring if the Merchant Crates would be affected by the explosion of his spell.
The Baby Slime looked at the Fireball in disdain before opening her mouth.
A moment later, she unleashed a torrent of water that completely devoured the Fireball, instantly dispelling it.
The attack didn't stop there and slammed into the body of the lustful exiled Prince, making him shout in pain as he slammed against the wall of the cave.
It was at that moment when Esmond suddenly appeared on the scene to investigate what was happening.
He had heard Prince Lionell's shout of pain, which made him wonder if one of the young ladies that they had captured suddenly attacked his Master.
But the moment he laid his eyes on the Baby Slime on top of the crate, he recalled a distant memory that happened more than a year ago.
'Impossible,' Esmond thought. 'It might be another Baby Slime.'
The Ranker remembered that on the day that he had tried to capture Iris, Henrietta, and the rest of the young men and women of the Six Kingdoms, there was a Baby Slime who had tried to get in the way.
Naturally, he dealt with the weak monster like any Ranker would and killed it without any shred of mercy.
When Eiko's gaze landed on Esmond, the Baby Slime narrowed her eyes as she summoned a Blast Bomb.
How could she possibly forget what Esmond looked like?
Aside from Prince Lionell, Esmond was on the list of people that Eiko hated the most.
This Human had killed her when she was weak and powerless.
Now, things had changed.
She was no longer the same Baby Slime whom the Ranker had easily killed after she did her best to protect her Mama from those who wished her harm.
Eiko's body glowed brightly as she transformed into a little girl, still holding a Blast Bomb in her hand.
When Esmond and his subordinates laid their eyes on her, they couldn't help but be charmed due to how cute she was.
"Not bad," Esmond said as he gazed at the adorable girl who was holding some sort of bomb in her right hand. "You will fetch a good price on the Black Market. I'm sure that there will be plenty of buyers who would want to raise a small beauty like you."
The corner of Eiko's lips curled up into a smirk as if what she was hearing was a very amusing thing.
The smirk on her face slowly transformed into a sneer. She had come to find these people to have her revenge.
Now that she finally found them, she would not allow any of them to escape since she intended to blow all of them to kingdom come.
Eiko casually tossed the Blast Bomb in her right hand towards the Ranker who had killed her in the past before opening her adorable mouth.
"F*cker."
A few seconds later, an earth-shaking explosion rocked the land, making Prince Lionell, Esmond, and the bandits who were in the vicinity scream in pain as blazing flames engulfed their camp.
Eiko had no intention of letting them die easily.
She would torture them and make them feel the same pain that she had felt more than a year ago.
The pain that hurt her small and innocent heart when she looked at her Mama's crying face before her small and delicate body exploded into countless pieces, a lifetime ago.
