C7. First battle

C7. First battle

"You... What have you done, arrghh." Shouted the bald guy angrily towards the man in darkness. He was furious because he had lost two of his followers.

The two followers behind the bald guy shivered as they watched their comrades died. All four of them have quite the same strength. Therefore, if two of their comrades got killed easily, that would mean that this guy can kill them effortlessly.

The man in the dark gave two potions to an old man and ordered him to take care of the wounded guards. Afterward, he turned back and looked at the remaining men icily.

"Impossible, you are... The weak prince" trembled one of the men. When the bald guy heard those sentences, he was stupefied. The weak prince is supposed to be a trash 2-star Origin warrior. Before, he was considered a genius because he controlled darkness Arte, one kind of Arte which rarely appears in the Zenith kingdom. In the beginning, everything went smoothly for the prince. However, as he reached a bottleneck, he tried to breakthrough many times, but it always failed. Therefore, when people knew this they stopped their praise, mocked him and called him the weak prince.

Almost all people who lived in the Zenith kingdom knew about this story!

"So what, he is merely a 3-star Origin warrior now. Both of you are 3-star, and I am a 4-star Origin warrior! I don't believe that he can defeat all of us," sneered the bald guy. He thought that his comrades died easily because they got caught off guard.

"Interesting," smiled Hayden. Two of their comrades got killed by him, and they still got the guts to underestimate him. This bunch of morons got no brains.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense, come if you dare," taunted Hayden icily as he activated Eyes of Darkness. Purple-dark silhouette color appeared on Hayden's eyes, making him look more dangerous than before.

"You two encircle him. I will take him from the front." ordered the bald guy. Both men nodded and started to encircle Hayden from left and right.

As both men got closer, they waved their hands and cast their strongest skill. "Weak prince, taste the might of our combined Arte, Icefire Explosion!!"

Hayden looked unperturbed, he glanced calmly at the combined skill and murmured. Luckily, I had made some other skills when I was in seclusion before. Thought Hayden as he waved his left hand and started chanting words.

Shortly after the ice and fire Arte collided on Hayden's place, creating a massive explosion. All of the animals nearby got scared and started to run away.

"Looks like he's dead from our strongest attack brother," laughed both of the men joyously. The bald guy didn't care about their opinion and quickly cast earth Arte on himself, trying to remain vigilant. The wounded guards paled, and Nevarth clenched his fist, wanting to intervene if it was getting more dangerous. The explosion dimmed shortly after, the two men were eager to see the prince's dead body.

As the surrounding got more visible, a wall of darkness appeared on everyone's eyes. Hayden stood calmly inside without a single dust nor scar.

"Damn, he is still alive! Quick we need to stall him," swore the men as they charged on Hayden. The attack before cost them too much mana, hence they can only use some simple skills to try to stall him. The bald guy also charged forward and threw a punch towards Hayden. The punch contained heavy force of earth Arte, which many ordinary 3-star Origin warriors cannot withstand.

"Piss off, piss off, piss off!!!" Shouted Hayden furiously as he let the power of darkness flow into his hand and obsidian sword. He slashed all of the two men's skills and punched straight towards the bald guy.

The punch collided, the two other weaker men got blown away. The bald guy was surprised because the weak prince could collide with him in a contest of pure Arte strength. While the man got distracted, Hayden smiled slyly as he saw through an opening, he ducked down immediately and uppercut the bald guy's jaw mercilessly, blowing him away.

"Hehe, since you dare torture and try to kill my men, I will kill your men mercilessly," said Hayden coldly as he charged towards one of the wounded men. The man regretted, but it was useless, not long after Hayden arrived and slashed him into two.

"Noooo..." Roared the bald guy. He stood up and tried to move quickly towards his last comrade, trying to defend him. Hayden watched and smiled mockingly as he cast Dark Movement and suddenly reappeared behind the man's shadow, beheading him straightly.
