11. The Beginning of the Battle

Here's the translation:

However, he didn't continue his words when the two soldiers stood in front of him. "You are not our King."

This time Xander could do nothing but slap his forehead. "I have to fight them," he then took a stance and challenged them. "Come and face me."

Without waiting, the two soldiers attacked from both sides. But Xander agilely managed to deflect their attacks. He retaliated by elbowing one in the back and throwing him at the other soldier.

Seeing them both fall, he seized the opportunity by kicking their stomachs hard. He then moved his hands and directed his magic at them until they turned into ashes. "Luckily, it's only two. I won't have time to deal with you if there were more."

But just as he clapped his hands to remove the dust, his gaze met with several other soldiers in front of him. Ah, it seems they witnessed the earlier incident.

"Damn!" Xander cursed as the soldiers approached and surrounded him.

Slowly Xander turned to see the number of troops now surrounding him. There were more than ten of them. If he fought them all, surely there wouldn't be enough time.

That's why he transformed into a red brick smoke cloud. His disguise was already blown, might as well. The most important thing now was to find the whereabouts of Isaura's sword and get out of here.

"Chase him! Don't let him escape!" one soldier exclaimed as they saw Xander's smoke flying away from them.

"You tell the King there's an infiltrator!" commanded another. One of the soldiers quickly nodded and left to inform Alonzo in his throne.

After circling the entire room in the palace for about half an hour, Xander's smoke finally stopped when he saw a golden light shining in one of the rooms.

Without hesitation, he entered. Using magic to close the door, he then transformed into a wolf prince figure. The man with wolf ears on his head walked and found Vegas lying casually in a container on the table.

Quickly Xander grabbed it and ran towards the door to open it. But as he was about to reach the door, a green smoke stood beside him, forming a man in black clothes, Alonzo.

Alonzo swatted away Xander's outstretched hand trying to open the door. He grinned cunningly. "Your task here is done, prince. If you want to leave, I won't stop you. But return the sword to its rightful place."

Hearing that, Xander's face turned red with suppressed emotions. At that moment, he realized that disaster was already in front of him. And he doubted he could avoid it. "This sword belongs to Isaura. You can't just take it."

"You're a shapeshifter, prince. You're one of my people. Do you think of betraying your own King?"

"You're not Alonzo! You're not my King!" Xander shouted loudly.

The wolf prince indeed lacked emotional control. So without hesitation, Xander attacked Alonzo with his magic. The man in black clothes seemed to step back as Xander's magic hit his stomach.

But Alonzo quickly stood up and took a few steps forward. "I was going to show you mercy because you're one of my people. But it seems my decision was wrong. I must kill you as planned."

After saying that, Alonzo attacked Xander by flying into the air and mercilessly kicking Xander's whole body. Not only that, he also used his magic to incapacitate Xander.

Being attacked like that overwhelmed Xander to defend himself. He wasn't even given a chance to fight back. Alonzo kicked Xander's hand holding the sword until Vegas was now in Alonzo's grasp.

After successfully getting what he wanted, Alonzo stepped back. Seeing Xander lying there because of his actions. He smirked. "If you hadn't defied my orders from the beginning, maybe your fate would have been better than this."

The prince lying on the floor looked at Alonzo fiercely. He held his own stomach in pain while coughing up blood. "My fate is not determined by you. And I don't regret fighting you. At least if I die, I'll die as a warrior."

"You insolent!" Alonzo shouted. But before his magic could hit Xander, a blue magic blocked it first. Making Alonzo turn around and look at the girl dressed in sapphire blue standing near the door. "You?!"

Isaura's chest heaved up and down. Her emotions peaked when she saw Vegas in Alonzo's grip. "Return my sword!"

Alonzo looked at the sword in his hand then looked back at Isaura, grinning cunningly. "You can't even protect it, you're not worthy of getting Vegas, little Wizard."

Isaura's emotions truly reached their peak. Without waiting, she immediately attacked Alonzo brutally. She unleashed many spells, all of which Alonzo could deflect with one hand.

Not losing her mind, Isaura flew and brutally kicked Alonzo's face as she did in the demon palace court. One kick landed on his face. It made Alonzo furious, and he gripped her leg tightly before spinning her and then slamming her to the ground.

If previously Isaura could stand safely on both her feet, this time Alonzo first released his magic before the girl landed perfectly.

Alonzo bound Isaura's body with green magic and then made her float in the air. Isaura, feeling her body locked, moved uncomfortably. "Let me go, damn it! I won't forgive you for your actions today!"

Isaura's screams weren't even heard by Alonzo. Instead, he let out an ear-piercing laugh. "HAHAHA! Who do you think you are that I should seek your forgiveness? Using magic in my world doesn't make you great."

"Isaura!" Darius exclaimed in shock when he saw the scene before him. Quickly the Elf moved and kicked Alonzo's hand so his magic against Isaura was released. As well as Vegas.

Isaura, who had fallen to the ground, then looked at Vegas not far from where Darius stood. "Darius, take Vegas and get out of here!"

At first, the Elf intended to help Isaura first. But he knew that Vegas was as important as his own life to Isaura. So he nodded and ran to take Vegas.

"You jerk!" Alonzo yelled. But when he was about to chase Darius, his steps faltered when he felt something binding his feet.

When he looked back, he became even angrier when he saw Isaura using her magic. Quickly Alonzo severed the magic, causing Isaura to be pushed back a few steps. "Get out of the way, you little Wizard! I don't have time to deal with you."

Before truly leaving, Alonzo took the time to enchant Isaura so she couldn't move from her position. Her hands were tied beneath her so she couldn't use magic either.

"HEY, DEMON! COME BACK HERE AND FACE ME IF YOU DARE! DON'T BE A COWARD BY CHASING AN ELF WHO CAN'T EVEN USE HIS POWERS! ALONZO! COME BACK!" No matter how loud Isaura screamed, Alonzo still didn't return and continued chasing Darius.

Isaura truly felt desperate now. No matter how hard she struggled and moved her body, it only made her feel excruciating pain. But she couldn't give up. How could Darius fight Alonzo without magic now?

As the girl bowed her head in despair, the magical bonds that held her suddenly loosened. This allowed her to move slightly forward, observing her hands which were completely free.

"Go— Isaura. You— you must get— Vegas back." Xander spoke haltingly. His injuries worsened when he just used his tail to release Isaura's bindings.

The girl nodded briefly. "Thank you, prince. I promise I will come back here and save you later."

"I— can help— myself. What— what's most important now is— is Vegas."

After saying that, the prince finally lost consciousness. Isaura wanted to help and restore Xander's strength. But she wouldn't let Xander's sacrifice go in vain.

That's why after briefly giving Xander strength for his wounds, she hurried away to find Alonzo. The real battle would happen today. Isaura wouldn't lose until one of them ceased to exist.

Even if Isaura had to lose, she would lose as a warrior.
