"Looks like you were given a pretty shitty fate as well huh?"

Azmond asked the young beautiful princess with a demonic smile on his distorted face. A smile that the young princess perceived as something angelic when she saw a boy who looked to be 12 years old. The boy was wearing a black leather coat with white outlines that covered his entire body, he was also wearing large black leather boots, all of which he found in the storage space ring.

The Young princess's lifeless eyes suddenly came back to life when she saw the boy appear before her with a wide grin on his Absurdly handsome facial features. She had never seen anyone so handsome, so beautiful in her entire life. If he was not an angel then she didn't what was considered one.

"Is your head still in this world girl? Why are you staring at me without saying anything??"

Azmond asked the blue haired princess with a confused look on his divine face.

The princess, still lost in her only little world, didn't even comprehend the words that came out of the 'angel's' mouth until the 'angel' got right up close and personal with the princess and asked with an 'angelic' voice.

"Helllooo! Are you still with us???"

Azmond asked the princess as he got closer and shook her gently with an even more confused look appearing on his face.

The princess finally came out of her stupor and responded to her guardian 'angel'.

"Y-Yesh?"

The princess stuttered as she stared at the now up close and personal Azmond. She was in awe at the fact that someone could possibly be so perfect-looking. It didn't make any sense whatsoever to her.

"Aiiii~ Well at least you aren't totally out of it, I thought you turned into a zombie or something with the way you were staring at me like you wanted to eat my meat. It honestly freaked me out a bit."

Azmond spoke with a tone of relief. He really did start to question whether the princess had actually turned into a brain muncher for a second there... you never know in the world of cultivation.

'Me eat his what??'

The princess thought in confusion as a small blush appeared on her rosy red cheeks. Yep, that's right... her mind went straight to the gutter.

As Azmond and the princess were having this little interaction, another discussion was currently going on a few meters away from them as well.

"Who the Hell Is That?!?! And what the hell happened to Anderson?!?? He just disappeared and an explosion happened soon after."

One of the mercenary goblins wearing a strange tunic asked in confusion as he spoke to the other goblin mercenaries.

"Wait a minute!! Could it be..."

And as if a sudden epiphany hit him out of nowhere, he looked towards where the explosion happened and saw a beaten and bloodied Anderson plastered into a large 60-meter-tall tree a few miles away from them.

"What the F*ck happened to Anderson in that split second for him to end up all the way over there???"

Another one of the Goblin Mercenaries who looked in the same direction asked with a look of astonishment.

"Was it that boy over there who did it?!? That is the only possible explanation, but... it doesn't make any sense! How can a boy who looks no older than 12 years old send Anderson, who is a Late Core Formation Realm Master flying with a single strike?!?!?"

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

The same Goblin Mercenary who started this conversation asked a question that none of the Goblin mercenaries present here knew the answer to.

"Who cares if it really was that boy who did it or not! That boy is in the way of our target so we just need to eliminate him too!"

A different Goblin mercenary wearing a weird green hat that looked horrendous on him spoke with a malicious face toward his fellow mercenaries.

"You're right! We just need to kill him as well and be done with it!" The First Goblin mercenary agreed with the one who said to eliminate the boy.

They conveniently forgot that they just came to the conclusion that the boy standing before them was the one who knocked Anderson unconscious with one move.

"Should we just attack him head-on or sneak over and ambush him from behind?"

A different Goblin mercenary asked with a cunning look in its beady eyes.

"What do you think? We are mercenaries, not knights fighting with some bullsh*it noble code of honor. We will sneak right behind the little boy and stab him right in the back, let's get it over with in one move."

The First Goblin Mercenary responded with a shrewd-looking grin.

"Attack him on the count of 10!"

The First Goblin Mercenary then gave a command to the others as he looked toward Azmond with a malicious glint in his eyes.

........

Meanwhile, the princess and Azmond were still talking to each other a few meters away.

"So what are you doing out here girl? I don't remember seeing any human settlements or anything of the sort on my way over here."

Azmond asked the now-standing princess a question with an inquisitive tone.

"I was looking for some 1000-year-old Ice Lilies to gift to my grandfather for his 300th birthday, but these scumbags ambushed me and my guards on the way."

The Princess said the last part with an obvious look of hatred on her beautiful features.

"And my name isn't girl, Angel. It is Aqua, Aqua Mesdeth AquaRing, with AquaRing being my family name and Aqua my first name"

Aqua replied to Azmond in a polite tone and a look of... infatuation? ...for the boy in front of her who was a bit taller than she was.

"1000 Year old lilies huh? Sounds like some more Spiritual bullsh*t... and what is with this Angel name?? I am far from an angel girl."

Azmond responded with a demonic smile on his angelic-like features.

"You saved me from those ra*ist bastards without expecting anything in return so that makes you an angel in my eyes.... plus you're too beautiful to be anything else..."

Aqua spoke with a kind look in her eyes as she spoke the past part in a voice so quiet that nobody could hear.

"Huh? What was that last part you said? I didn't quite catch it."

Azmond asked with a perplexed look on his divine features.

"It was N-Nothing! Ignore what I said angel... please..."

Aqua spoke with her head down in a meek way as her long silky blue hair covered her beautiful face.

"Hmm... Whatever you say... And stop calling me 'angel'. It's annoying, and I have a name as well, It's Azmond"

Azmond looked quite proud over that fact.

"The Angels name is... Azmond. I see..."

Aqua started talking to herself with her hair covering her face and a goofy smile on her pretty mouth as she started mumbling incomprehensible nonsense in her own little world.

'And there she goes again... dozing off into her own little galaxy. What an odd one she is, maybe she has brain problems?'

Azmond thought to himself with a concerned look on his face.

'Whatever the case may be, I will leave it aside for now since I still have some sneaky bugs I need to deal with first'

Azmond thought to himself as a blade came flying out of nowhere with a whistle in the direction of the still-lost princess.

Wsstttt*

Azmond suddenly appeared in front of the blade's trajectory and knocked it out of the air with a flick of his middle finger. Another 4 blades were seen flying at the princess in the same way as the first.

Azmond was seen and then he wasn't seen as he disappeared and reappeared in front of each of the 4 flying blades at lightning-quick speeds as he hit each blade in a certain direction.

Each and every single one of the blades was suddenly seen flying in 4 different directions. Every blade flew right back to their owners as 4 consecutive screams resounded across the forest.

ARrrgGghHH*

4 Goblin Mercenaries screamed in unison.

While the screams of the 4 Goblin mercenaries were heard, another silent hooded figure was waiting in the shadows behind a tree as he suddenly lunged forward in the direction of Azmond's backside, aiming at him with a 2-foot-long jagged dagger.

Azmond suddenly disappeared from the silent figure's vision.

'Where the hell did he Go?!?!?'

Thought the silent figure with a confused look underneath its mask.

The silent hooded figure looked in every which direction but he couldn't catch sight of the human boy no matter which way he turned.

"I'm right here, Little Green P-I-G-G-I-E."

Azmond whispered next to the hooded figure's right ear, as a demonic grin formed on his handsome face.

Azmond then quickly twisted the hooded figure's head around, the hooded figure's head twisted in circles enough times that his neck began to look like a slinky.

"Pest cleanup is now completed, flawless work ME!"

Azmond spoke to himself with a proud and haughty look as he looked around the area and saw 5 bodies lying dead on the gr

ound with disbelief being the only thing they felt in their last moments.
