Chapter 12: Third Princes Orders

“I pay my respects to Mortal King Dark Eyes.” Raven spoke loudly as he bowed respectfully towards Dark Eyes.

Mortal King!

Village Chief Shamix felt as though his world had turned upside down.

Mortal Kings were simply super experts of the land. They only appeared within the top clans of the Denus Empire. Even within those factions they were considered the best of the best. The Emperor of the Denus Empire was at the Mortal King stage.

Village Chief Shamix simply couldn’t believe his luck. Forget villages even the prestigious cities of the Empire wouldn’t always have a Mortal King expert. They were simply people of legends to those of the Stone Village.

Elder Stanley’s eyes were widely opened as he saw a symbol on Dark Eyes’ robes. He uncontrollably shivered as he powerlessly dropped the sword in his hand.

Dark Eyes had a strange voice. He acknowledged Raven by giving him a slight nod.

“You’re the head of the Tifili Villages branch Bounty Hunter Association. You’ve made some good contributions recently.. But as you know some strange things are going on within Tifili Village. You shouldn’t be out here.” Dark Eyes’ voice was strangely low, other than Cool Breeze and Raven no one could hear his words.

“Yes lord Mortal King, I only came out for a simple mission. I didn’t expect things to go this way.” Raven was initially surprised that Dark Eyes knew who he was, but after hearing Dark Eyes’s following words he suddenly felt pressured.

Dark Eyes continued. “Also that Blacky kid whom you brought has some potential. He’s still young, if he’s raised well he will bring a lot of benefits to the Bounty Hunter Association.”

Raven was surprised that a Mortal King like Dark Eyes would say such words. He also thought Blacky was a fairly good talent, but Raven and Dark Eyes were from different worlds.

Cool Breeze angrily glared at Dark Eyes. “What potential? I was simply careless. Do you truly think he could beat me without his pathetic schemes?”

“Young Master of course he wouldn’t compare to you, but even so, today he could be considered to have thought you a lesson in life. Playing with food is not a good idea, and rarely worth it.” Dark Eyes’ voice immediately became much more respectful when he talked to Cool Breeze.

Raven suddenly noticed Blacky was no longer by their side. He began to panic assuming he was captured.

Dark Eyes noticed the change in Raven, so did Cool Breeze.

Raven glanced around for a moment before a wondrous expression appeared on his face. Cool Breeze opened his mouth. Dark Eyes’ expression was not visible, but it surely also had some changes.

Currently all three were watching how Blacky was rolling away to the edge of the arena.

Raven coughed, after a moment he appeared by Blacky’s side and grabbed him by his robes.

Blacky only felt the scenery around him turn into a blur. He suddenly noticed the demonic figure was right in front of him!

“Demon, don’t eat me! I’m not tasty, I only eat grains. I’m also pitifully weak. Lord Demon eat sir Raven and Breezy, their meat is much better!” Blacky trembled as he spoke in fear.

Raven was completely stunned, just what the hell was Old Man Black teaching this kid?

Cool Breeze wanted to laugh but he simply couldn’t. He turned to look at Dark Eyes with a strange expression.

“Yes, Blacky clearly has infinite potential. He could perhaps become the greatest clown in all of history!” Cool Breeze spoke sarcastically.

Blacky heard Cool Breeze’s sarcastic remark and immediately became enraged. When he first gained consciousness he didn’t realize that he was so badly injured.

“Breezy you’re the clown who went back on his words! I trusted you for nothing. Lord Demon has definitely come here to make you pay for the contract we made!”

Cool Breeze’s face turned red once again in anger as he shouted out. “Dark Eyes eat this fucker! Eat him now!”

Blacky turned to look at the demonic figure. He once again began to feel fear. “Lord Demon. Please don’t eat me. Did you sign a contract with Breezy? He’s not a man of his word. Lord Demon why don’t you sign a contract with me? I promise I’ll let you eat a lot of people.”

Dark Eyes felt awkward, he completely ignored Blacky and spoke to Cool Breeze. “Young Master.. I don’t eat people..”

Raven was also shocked he immediately slapped Blacky on the side of his head. “What the hell is wrong with you? Pay respects to the Lord Mortal King, apologize immediately for your actions, both to Lord Mortal King, and to Young Master.”

Blacky was momentarily stunned. When he was rolling out of the arena, he didn’t even consider that this strange person was actually a human.

Blacky immediately struggled onto his knees and began to beg. “Mighty Mortal King, I was wrong! I deserve to be punished by death.. Wait Lord Mortal King please don’t kill me.”

Blacky turned to Cool Breeze. “Young Master Breezy, aren’t we good friends? The competition was only a joke right? Haha, actually I never wanted the Golden Leaf. In fact all the weapons I took from before were simply to hold them for you in the future.”

Cool Breeze was shocked at Blacky’s shamelessness. This was the first time he met such a person. Perhaps Blacky was truly an expert clown.

Blacky saw Cool Breeze’s expression change and began to feel some fear.

Blacky sighed as he began to talk ‘emotionally’. “Young Master Breezy, in all my life the few weeks of us traveling together was definitely the highlights of my life. Young Master your graciousness will never be forgotten by me. I truly thank the heavens on letting us meet in this vast world. I never had family, they all passed away before I got a chance to grow up.. But if I had a younger brother I can only wish they would be as great as you. In fact, I truly love you as a younger brother.”

Blacky never met his family and in fact didn’t understand too much about familial relationships. He only spoke in hopes of making Cool Breeze and the Demonic man to feel pity for him.

Raven seemed to be moved by Blacky’s words, he learned from Old Man Black that Blacky’s family was all killed tragically. “Young Master, please forgive Blacky.”

Cool Breeze had a gloomy expression. It was one thing if Blacky begged, but why did he have to say things like loving him as a younger brother? What type of nonsense was that?

“Young fellow I find you quite interesting. Considering you’re a member of the younger generation, I won’t harm you.” Mortal King Dark Eyes’ ghoulish voice was heard as he spoke.

Blacky felt scared hearing the Demon man had interest in him, but he didn’t show it. He simply hid behind Raven.

Cool Breeze frowned as he spoke. “Fine. I’ll forget about this manner but only this once. As for the matter of the fight, I simply reacted by instinct. In return I’ll naturally keep my word of giving you the Golden Leaf, and the extras I promised from before.”

After that a silver ring appeared in Cool Breeze’s hand. He tossed it like trash at Blacky who took the piece of jewellery with some dissatisfaction. What the hell? Did Breezy think he wanted to marry him or something?

Blacky took the ring with a smile. It was probably valuable so he would sell it later. “Thank you Young Master Breezy. Even though I don’t roll that way, I’ll still take your gift.”

Raven and Dark Eyes didn’t know what to say. As for Cool Breeze he didn’t quite understand the meaning behind Blacky’s words.

Raven knew that the ring that Cool Breeze gave Blacky wasn’t ordinary. It was a storage ring, it also most likely had a few things stored inside which could heal Blacky. Unfortunately Blacky didn’t seem to understand the value of it.

Dark Eyes had some surprise in his eyes when he saw the ring which Cool Breeze gave out. “Young Master is truly kind.”

Cool Breeze snorted. “In the end I lost the fight, and didn’t you say he has some potential? This will only give him a little push.”

Dark Eyes nodded slightly before turning to look around.

“As for them?”

Village Chief Shamix and the rest of the guards had been standing place in shock. They wanted to escape, but they knew it was pointless. They simply had no hope in escaping from a Mortal King. They could only watch on from the side.

Village Chief Shamix dropped the Stone Elements Edge in his hands and fell on his knees. “Young Master Breezy, Lord Mortal King. This lowly one had no eyes and offended you. This Village Chief is willing to offer all he has to repent for his sins.”

He originally thought everything was over, but he learned a thing or two from Blacky.

The two elders by the Village Chief also fell onto their knees. Moments later all of the guards, and spectators fell onto their knees, begging for forgiveness.

Dark Eyes simply ignored them as he turned to look at Cool Breeze.

Raven by the side had a strange smile on his face. Blacky on the other hand cursed these people for copying his style.

“Dark Eyes did you find anything in relation to Tifili Village here?” Cool Breeze asked Dark Eyes a question.

“No, this place has nothing of interest at all.” Dark Eyes replied.

“Well Raven’s mission can be considered pointless. it also seems that I’ve wasted my time here.” Cool Breeze smiled carelessly.

“Not only did I waste my time, the trash in this place have truly angered this Prince.” Cool Breeze continued to talk appearing even more angered.

“These noisy pests must be dealt with.” Cool Breeze spoke ruthlessly.

“Dogs of Stone Village shut your mouths! You’ve angered the third Prince of the Demonic Cult Crew, and must be punished accordingly.” Dark Eyes voice was deep, it roared throughout the arena. It caused all those who heard it to tremble in fear.

“Young Master, how shall they be punished?” Dark Eyes asked Cool Breeze.

“All of the people of Stone Village must die. Actually there should no longer be a Stone Village.” Cool Breeze replied with a smile on his face.
