Watching how the man's head exploded with strands of lightning burst from within it like fireworks caused all the participants from both sides to be stunned. Mark was the most shocked of them all.
The rage which had shown on his face when those people dared to attack the 4th prince within the capital of the Mulan kingdom, a small affiliated kingdom of the Djage empire, had turned into extreme astonishment.
What was that!
They all were thinking the same thing. It was the first time that they have seen the 4th prince like that, and also it was the first time that they have seen this kinda power.
The 4th prince's body was enshrouded with lightning bolts from head to toes, his eyes were shining brightly in the middle of the night, his hair had turned completely white due to the strands of lightning running around them, it was as though each strand of his hair had turned into a strand lightning. He was like the incarnation of the God of Lightning.
As for his speed, it was something that was beyond their realm of comprehension.
Wasnt the 4th prince's a mage? How could he possess such power and speed?
Mark's lower jaw had dropped to the floor. His mouth was hanging wide enough to swallow an entire mountain peak.
As if it wasn't enough, the events that took place in the following moments had left everyone extremely astonished. There was nothing more unbelievable and shocking than what they were witnessing. Unless someone was here and witnessed it by himself, nobody would believe this event even if it were told to them by their most trusted confidant.
They saw the 4th prince jumping from house to house leaving a stream a lightning behind as he rushed towards the following enemies, with two shining lightning swords in his hands.
Each of the men that he had encountered had met the same fate, he pierced one lightning sword into their head which sunk deep within like a sponge swallowing a drop of water, within a second, that person's head shone brightly before he exploded as strands of lightning burst forth.
In less than ten seconds, six men's heads had been exploded.
These men had come with such fierceness and confidence as they were flying on top of the building with their shining swords on their waists as they were about to kill the 4th prince but in just a flash, six of them had already died! The most depressing thing is, they had all died within a span of a few seconds.
Facing the 4th prince, the so-called-experts sent by the traitorous noble families from the Mulan Kingdom had been unable to even raise their swords in defense.
The entire ambush had taken less than ten seconds to pan out. Everyone had become petrified.
The twenty soldiers looked above the houses as the heads of the enemies exploding in the air, completely clueless. They had no idea what was going on as they simply stood there like idiots. Even Mark who was the strongest of them all remained rooted to the spot as he watched the 4th prince continued harvesting the soul of the enemies like weeds.
Not far from the imperial carriage, stood the leader of the fifteen dead guys who the 4th prince had just killed. He was only left alive because he was on the ground all along, waiting to sneak attack the tree imperial knights and kept them busy while his subordinates were going to take care of the soldiers as well as the 4th prince.
The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.
He was a peak 5th class void mage who had the power to turn his whole skin into one of the hardest minerals in Eidrin world, known as adamantem. This mineral was as hard as a diamond which was a mineral found on earth.
The leader was able to turn his skin into that mineral for a small amount of time. After that transformation, he would be able to stand his ground for a limited time against one or two peak 6th class warrior or mage for a limited amount of time, but after that transformation was done or he runs out of mana, he would be like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Nonetheless, he still had the confidence to keep the three imperial knights busy while his subordinated were taking care of the rest. But after witnessing this scene, he was stunned and felt fear creep into his mind.
He was completely panicking. " What the hell! Is this really an early 4th class mage? Are you fucking kidding me? My men wouldn't even be killed so easily if we were fighting the tree imperial knights guarding the 4th prince! they could have at least given a decent fight, right? they actually got their heads exploded like balloons! they were killed so easily! this is impossible...."
It was in instant extermination. In the leader's opinion, the three imperial knights were the one that needed the protection of the 4th prince, not the other way around.
" Retreat." seeing how his men were being killed so easily as though they were a bunch of newborn babies, the leader quickly abandoned the mission.
Since the 4th prince was able to kill most of his underlings so easily, it would be impossible to accomplish this mission. His underlings were the ones that were supposed to kill the 4th prince while he was keeping the three imperial knights busy. Three of his underlings were at the peak of the 4th rank warriors while one was a 4th class mage.
However, the 4th prince had killed them first before they could even raise their blades or cast a spell. It was as though the 4th prince knew that they were the ones that were a threat to him. As for the rest, most of them were 2nd rank warriors.
Now, the only thing the leader wanted to do was to get out of here as soon as possible. He wanted nothing more than to keep his life.
One could only do something when one stayed alive, that's what he believed in!
However, he had only run several meters and had almost made his gateway, but at this moment, a sharp long lightning spear suddenly flashed from behind his back.
The shiny lighting spear blasted into his back and scattered into the darkness like fireworks.The lightning spear wasn't able to pierce his back or come out of his chest because the leader had already used his ability and turned his skin into the adamantem.
Looking back, the leader saw the 4th prince standing on top one of the building looking down at him. Looking at the body of the 4th prince and the cold look on his face, a look of despair showed in the leader's eyes.
" You have already come all this way. Why leave so soon." The cold voice of the 4th prince reverberated into the dark.
The leader felt an extreme pressure under the 4th prince's cold and unyielding gaze. He wanted to run and scream, but under his gaze, he was unable to move. Not that, he couldn't, but he had the feeling that if he took one more step, he would definitely die despite having the adamantem skin.
He did not know why he had that feeling, but he definitely believed it to be true as he always trusts his gut.
The 4th princes jumped down from the house and was walking towards the leader who had his legs rooted into the ground. The lightning energy was still swirling around his body. For the leader, the 4th prince seemed like a god from the heavens. Not only him, including the soldiers and the three imperial knights felt as though the 4th prince was invincible.
As Shad was walking towards the leader, he had a slight and relaxed smile on his face. However, the leader could clearly sense a life and death crisis originating from that smile. Every inch of his smile gave him an ominous sense of death.
Even if he wanted to run he couldn't as he felt intimidated. Not only that, the three imperial knights had already caught up to him as well as the twenty soldiers when the 4th prince had shot that lightning spear towards him.
"I really wanted to hide this power, but it seemed like hiding it might have done me more bad than good. I felt really free just now by using it without giving a damn whether people were watching or not. "
As he was saying that, he created a huge lightning ball into his palm. Shad really felt a sense of relief and freedom while using his power like that without having to worry wether someone was watching him or not.
" I planned on killing you on the spot, but you seemed to a very interesting guy."
" I think we need to have a chat."
Listening to the 4th prince, the leader started painting and felt a chilling coldness in his heart. He couldn't even utter a single word and could only nod his head repeatedly like an idiot.
