The scene smelled blood, but Hayden looked unperturbed. Eyes of Darkness made him felt more composed. He didn't enjoy killing, but after he watched these people tortured his men, it made him realized that these kinds of people were not worth pitying. He also realized that strength was an essential asset in this world.

The strong could do anything, and the weak would get humiliated. Therefore Hayden felt more motivated to become stronger.

"Arrrrrghhh!!! Fuck you, I will kill you and then cut you into pieces." swore the bald guy hoarsely. Suddenly his eyes turned gold. The bald guy body grew larger while earth Arte started to cover his entire skin. He looked bulky like a giant that could cause an earthquake every time he moves.

Hayden realized that the bald guy had lost his mind and went into a berserk state. The fight could get more dangerous if it went on. Therefore he needed to plan something as soon as possible. After Hayden calculated various possibilities, he decided to use all of his reserved mana in one strike, hoping that it would penetrate directly through the bald guy's armor.

Nevarth gritted his teeth, wanting to intervene. However, after he saw Hayden's unyielding eyes, he decided not to stop him. He wanted to see Hayden's limit.

Hayden started to condense all of his reserved mana on his palm, Nevarth was surprised because at the moment Hayden's aura exceeded its limit and was equivalent to the top of 4-star Origin realm. He thought that it was rare to see a mere 3-star Origin realm that could emit such a thick aura.

"Baldie, I admire your fighting spirit. Come, let's end this now," said Hayden as he charged forward.

"Roarrrrrr," the soundwave from the bald guy made Hayden felt like there was a mountain fall on him. However, Hayden gritted his teeth and immediately cast Dark Movement, trying to close the gap between them.

Hayden reappeared in front of the bald guy and punched straight towards his abdomen, where the center of Arte usually located. The bald guy was aware of his move and quickly made a squeezing motion towards Hayden, trying to turn him into mush. Hayden struggled as he sensed the force coming to him from two directions, he urgently activated the wall of darkness, but Hayden realized that it wasn't enough, he started to bleed as the force was too destructive.

"Damn it, Break!!!" roared Hayden furiously.

As Hayden started bleeding, Nevarth knew that this time he needed to intervene or else something unexpected would happen and it would be dangerous for the second prince. He waved his right hand and then started chanting a spell. While he was chanting incantations, one could notice some circles of light with many strange patterns slowly emerged from Nevarth surroundings.

"Light's Embrace," shouted Nevarth solemnly.

Suddenly, light Arte covered Hayden. He realized that his power grew stronger, and his injury slowly began to heal. He couldn't waste this opportunity. Therefore he condensed Arte to his left hand and punched straight to the place he had hit before.

"Crackkk..." The bald guy's armor cracked, and the punch went through his abdomen, blowing him away to a Tree. The impact of Hayden's punch penetrated straight towards the center of the Arte in his abdomen, destroying it instantly.

After his Arte got crippled, the bald men started getting conscious and realized that he had lost all of his power.

"Noooo my power, gone it's all gone," the bald guy felt desperate because his cultivation was ruined, alas, he had lost everything including his comrades because of his foolishness.

Hayden glanced towards Nevarth and thanked him. He owed him for saving his life, and also his interest was getting piqued because he had never thought that Nevarth was so strong. The first time he met him, he couldn't sense his Arte rank. The only thing that Hayden felt as he got to know him was that Nevarth looked like an ordinary man, but he has a mysterious aura on him. However, Hayden didn't let his curiosity taken over him because he needed to finish his job first. Therefore, he calmed down and walked slowly towards the bald guy.

The bald guy was terrified, but what can he do? He was a useless piece of trash right now, and he couldn't do anything. He could only watch Hayden came and resigned to his fate.

"Baldie, tell me who sent you here, and what do they want from me?" Asked Hayden angrily. The bald guy stared at him dully.

At first, he wasn't willing to tell him anything. But afterward, he sighed while thinking, so what if I keep being faithful to 'him', I have lost all of my comrades and I can't even escape. murmured him silently.

"Alright prince, I was sent here by..." As he wanted to tell Hayden something, the bald guy suddenly paled and spat some blood, not long after he fell to the ground, lifeless.
