In a flash, three days have gone by since Shad had killed and exterminated the alliance of the group of bandits that have been terrorizing the southern region of the Mulan kingdom and turned it into a no man lands.

The news, as well as the details of that battle, were spread throughout the southern region, including the whole Egul continent like a storm.

Such a battle, such a result have truly horrified everyone and had created a creepy silence throughout the entire continent. At this time, regardless of the kingdom or empire, or even the old monster that had already broken through the 9th class mage or warrior, there was only fear in their minds.

From their perspectives, even though this little demon had a shallow cultivation or magic power, he was even more frightening compared to someone of their rank because of his ability to control the lightning energy without the need to chant or cast a magic spell and even strengthen his body with it like a warrior.

They have never heard of someone having both the power of a mage and a warrior at the same time. There were some rare cases where a mage would use potions to strengthen their body like a warrior or a mage being proficient in using close range weapons etc. But the 4th imperial prince of the Djage Empire was something totally different. He was like a big cheat in a place such as the Egul Continent where it was impossible for a person to be both a mage and a warrior at the same time.

Before three days ago, Anyone who even spoke of a person being able to use the magic element without the use of magic spell as a catalyst would be the object of teasing and would be treated like a clown. However, common sense had been broken since three days ago as a lot of people have seen it and heard about it from more than one person.

And it wasn't just the 3rd prince of the Nicholas empire who had lost of two of his ten commanders in less than a month in the hand of the 4th imperial prince of the Djage Empire, Even an existence such as the Guardian of the mighty Draco Empire, hail as the strongest mage throughout the Egul continent was shocked. He had vast knowledge and even traveled out of Egul continent, yet he had never seen or heard something like this before. This was his first time hearing about this.

He had heard the rumor just like others, but he along the others had their doubt and thought that it was only just rumored until three days after the report from multiple eyewitnesses. In fact, the 4th imperial prince battled and even slaughtered more than thousands of bandits by himself didn't even shock or faze him as much as the fact that he was able to use lightning energy to increase his speed and strength without the use of a magic spell.

While the whole continent became alarmed and afraid after hearing the news of that battle, The people of the Djage Empire were celebrating. They began to view the 4th imperial prince as the pride of the Djage Empire. They still call him an imperial freak as usual, but this time there wasn't any bad connotation to it. For them, the nickname imperial freak meant power and overwhelming strength.

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

At this time, most of them began to put the 4th imperial prince in the same league as the legendary crown prince of the mighty Draco Empire, not only them but almost everyone in the Egul continent as well. They had this saying that the Draco Empire has the Uncrowned Emperor while The Djage Empire has the Imperial Freak.

Aside from them, the imperial family of the Djage Empire was very happy as well. With the current strength of the 4th imperial prince and the speed of his cultivation, they believed that the Djage Empire will even get stronger in the future and even surpassed the Draco Empire. With his heaven-defying talent, As long as the 4th imperial prince is still alive, they believed that the Djage Empire will never be destroyed even if they were to wish for it.

Mulan Kingdom, Crystal City

Crystal City was the closest city to the southern region of the Mulan kingdom and also the first city one will see after living the Southern region of the Mulan kingdom to the capital.

At this time, The initially lively restaurant known as The Rail became very quiet after the arrival of a young man. The nobles and the experts eating in that restaurant sat there in silence. No one talked loudly.

The young man stood inside the restaurant like a statue of a god suppressing this world. There was a cold glint in his eyes as he was gazing and screening at the people eating at the restaurant as though he was looking for someone in particular. Behind that young man, there was also twelve men in red cloaks forming a semi-circle around the young man. All of the twelve of them looked very powerful and they tried their best to suppress their magic power or battle qi so that others could not detect their surging and howling strength.

After screening the restaurant for a while, the young man left without saying a word following by the twelve men. As soon as they left, the people in the restaurant finally heaved a sigh of relief. The young man gave them the feeling like he was an ancient beast stalking his prey which caused them to be out of breath and quivered in fear.

Outside of the restaurant, the young stood still while looking at the direction of the southern region of the Mulan Kingdom. Despite being windy outside, Not even a strand of his hair fluttered as if the wind didn't dare to approach him.

The magic power emanating from his body was like a majestic mountain. He just stood there, unchanged, without any sign of emotions, but his powerful breath was like a storm that could tear apart everything that dared to come close.

" It seemed like that little bitch had already left for the southern region. Did She really think that she could escape from me?. Anyway, It's a good thing that she went that way because it gave me the perfect opportunity to meet that so-called imperial freak." The young man's eyes became as cold as ice as he murmured. His heart couldn't help but feel a chilling sensation as he thought about that young man known as the imperial freak. It was a feeling that he has never felt before ever since he had embarked in his quest. He felt as though this so-called imperial freak will absolutely be his worst and most powerful enemy.
