After managing all of the nobles and strengthening the princess's faction to prepare for the rebellion, Ian left the capital off to a new destination

With his true appearance Ian was walking down a dusty highway, treading towards what Ian heard to be the Demon capital. Of course, Ian was in no rush and decided to walk and take his time and he continued his walk observing the scenery of quite a number of days, not really knowing how far he was from the demon capital

"You know you need to get married soon, I don't even care who you marry as long as your happy. But for the sake of taking the throne you need to have a spouse" A woman said to the teenager in front of her

Sighing dejectedly the teen replied "I know mother, it's just I can't find a man who would suit me. Elves, dwarves, demon folk like us, even humans although they could only be a concubine. I feel no affinity with anyone

Sighing with her daughter The Demon Queen Replied "I understand your struggles, I was just barely compatible with your father myself. However, before you can attend the Arcane Acadamy you need to get engaged. Otherwise you will be hunted by no means of an end by suitors, and have no chance to properly study"

Continuing the Demon Queen said "The humans knowledge and talent in magic has degraded to almost nothing ages ago with only a few old monsters left who are unwilling to impart their knowledge. So, to compensate they obsessively progressed in martial arts to an extreme degree. So, without magic this war we are fighting will be lost all the quicker. That's why we need you to study magic, I know you have talent and once you receive your demon grimoire. Magic for our demon country will progress immensely."

The princess sighed and turned to look outside the window when suddenly the carriage stopped and a hand burst through the door pulling the princess outside. The Demon Queen a moment to late watched as her daughter was pulled outside.

After a moment the princess realized what she was grabbed by, a human adventure. Looking around the princess saw around 10 men who were now looking with lust filled eyes on her body

The Demon Queen jumping out of the carriage witnessed her daughter being held captive and was helplessly captured as well due to the threats on the princess's wellbeing.

The Demon Queen was hoping to be able to escape with her daughter once they put the weapons away, but The Demon Queen then felt a cold metal bracelet clip over her wrists and all of the mana in her body slowly being forcefully drawn into the metal.

It was a Mage Restraint Manacle

Observing the forest scenery Ian was actually enjoying himself, having no one to really disturb him was quite relaxing and a luxury he did not really get to enjoy in marital worlds

However, fate seemed to still pester Ian, as a few minutes later Ian walking into the scene of 2 women's clothes being gripped and slowly torn off. Not really wanting to deviate from his planned path Ian continued walking forward into the scene.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Feeling their bodies slowly being stripped of clothing the two royals felt quite hopeless, they knew how beautiful they were and thus the intentions of these men were quite obvious.

However, the tense atmosphere was dispelled as a man walked down the path and looked upon the scene with indifference.

The princess and queen suddenly felt his gaze land on them and saw something they never saw in a gaze in their lives. Distain and Indifference, these two women who were always revered for whether it was their appearance or their status. Even someone who hated them would still have some degree of appreciation or respect in their gazes. They never experienced this before and felt a cold shudder run through their bodies, momentarily forgetting the situation they were in

However, the human male adventures did not care for this gaze and felt insulted and began threaten him when they saw his appearance

"He could sell for a pretty penny, couldn’t he?" One adventure whispered

"Yea, let's catch him and then have fun with the girls" Another whispered

"Hey!" One of the men shouted "Why don't you stay here? We have some uses for you."

Looking at the man coldly Ian snorted coldly "I don't really care what you're doing, I'm just going on my own way"

Continuing his pace Ian walked past them, the men realizing Ian was going to leave surrounded him in haste

"Did we saw you could leave?" One of the men sneered

"I don't believe I needed to ask" Ian replied coldly

"Well it seems you don't understand, under the might of the strong the weak must ask for everything. Even the right to live" Another man laughed

"The might of the strong?" Ian suddenly grinned

Connecting his thumb to his middle finger he looked at the man in front of him and snapped

Watching this the man laughed "What you think you can kill me with a snap" Just as he was finishing his sentence a square grid formed of red lines slowly appeared over his body. As the man took a step forward his body collapsed into meat cubes, the smell of bloody slowly entering the air

Silence, both the men and two royals watched this scene in complete horror and shock

Sighing Ian connected his middle finger and thumb once again and turned the rest of the men into mists of blood with a snap just as they began to run

Looking at the two royals Ian felt an odd fate connecting him to them

"You two seem to be oddly lucky" Ian sighed

Looking at the two bangles on their bodies Ian waved his hand, causing the manacles to disintegrate into dust

"Well now, I'll be seeing myself out" Ian said as he turned to continue down the path

"Wait!" Both of the Royals called out almost simultaneously

The Demon Queen asked horridly "Are you heading to the Demon Capital?"

Stopping and turning face the Demon Queen Ian nodded

"Why don't you join us on our carriage, it would be much more comfortable than walking" The Demon Queen asked

Finding no reason to decline, Ian reluctantly entered the carriage with the royals
