It was deathly silent on the supposed to be battlefield.

This time, Lyle’s terrifying strength really caused many people to shake in their boots and wriggled their waists incessantly.

The shock that Lyle gave to the people outside the Rock Wall was ten time stronger than the shock he gave them when he suddenly appeared with his devil-like form and save the Beast Princess; Feme Foxtail.

Different feelings were circulating in their minds as they stared at Lyle as he stood up at the top of a mountain of corpses of Demonic Beasts and Men in Black as if he was Godzilla.

Everyone was very shocked, Prince Lyle was practically a killing god, he possessed an overwhelming strength!

His strength, decisiveness and cold-blooded nature which was the common yet famous trait of the famous dragon clan makes everyone realize that this youth who has a beautiful face was not to be trifled with, he is not someone they should provoke!

Speaking from a certain point of view, Lyle’s name had already been carved deeply into everyone’s heart, he would then become the main topic discussed by everyone for a long time.

In the silence, the people who were acquainted with him such as; Teacher Mirin, Misuzu and Lyle’s treasure hunt group who came to assist the others stood rooted on their spot.

— Before them lay the decapitated corpses of Demonic Beasts and humans.

No one at the scene apparently understood what had happened or maybe they just couldn’t believe what had transpired inside that prison like Rock wall in this past few minutes.

This vast wild forest is filled with the pungent smell of blood, even the breeze that rustled the leaves of trees cannot erase the smell. This piece of forest is pervaded by the stench of blood, one could even smell it at a distance from here.

After a while, Lyle’s treasure group were the first to collect themselves as they had witnessed Lyle’s horrifying capabilities when they travel together and immediately started to work and assist on the injured.

… …

Not far away from the group was a water capsule which was treating Feme’s seriously injured body and was being protected by two girls that seemed like beastmen.

Inside the capsule, Feme who was originally struggling to breathe began inhaling and exhaling rapidly. Her pale face was getting red and her wounds were recovering at a ridiculous speed visible to the human eyes.

At first, the two girls which was protecting the water capsule were shocked and at the same time terrified when they saw Feme’s rapid recovery.

Their jaws dropped subconsciously. Although they didn’t know what this Water Capsule that the infamous ‘Monster Prince’ put Feme into, but it was undeniably super effective.

The healing power of the water capsule was beyond their wildest dreams.

Unimaginable! Mind-blowing! Unheard of!

It was better than any healing spell from the High Priests of the Holy Church or some high level water mages which was adept in healing.

High priests and Water Mages who were adept in Healing magic can heal wounds to some extent but compared to this kind of rapid recovery, their healing skills were nothing.

Well, of course it was better.

Lyle, after all did his best to come up with this special magic. Although aside from this one type of special healing magic, Lyle didn’t know or create any other healing magic yet.

The two girls looked at each other and then stared at the rock wall.

They were almost sure that the ‘Monster Prince’ they had heard so much and their princess’s fiancée was a living god.

… …

A few minutes ago.

What had happened?

Only a few minutes had passed since the Rock Wall emerged yet when the Rock wall began to crumble and disappeared, what appeared was …

Demonic Beasts and humans that had been completely slaughtered in the most bloody fashion.

None of them had a complete corpse. The beasts’ heads were severed, their bodies ripped into pieces and insides scattered everywhere.

In the middle of the flames and corpses, one lone young man was standing. On his two hands were his beloved black thin swords.

All of the observers gasped when they saw this, their faces filled with looks of unprecedented shock. Immediately, they began to fall back, fearful of coming into contact with the ripples.

“What magic is that?!?!”

“Just what the hell is he ?! How can he be so ruthless ?!”

— This was the infamous ‘Monster Prince’; Lyle Drake Dragonfang!

Currently, his body had already reverted to its original appearance. His long silver colored hair, platinum wings, horns and black scales was nowhere to be seen as if his figure just a while ago was nothing but an illusion.

His whole body was already thoroughly stained red by the watery blood.

He was just like the Death God at the moment.

He was standing like a tall mountain; not moving a single inch causing Misuzu and the others in the treasure hunt group nervous and worried.

Teacher Mirin and the others were even more nervous. All of them stared at Lyle. Their hearts were pounding extremely quickly, hoping that it would work to calm their agitations.

No one else saw anything because of the Rock Wall, yet they still could imagine what had just transpired inside it as soon as they saw the bodies torn apart one after another.

Did Prince Lyle did this?

Probably. The people present couldn’t help but shivered; especially the people who were wounded.

They wanted to vomit in disgust and fear as dead bodies, blood, body parts and insides laid in front of them.

Was this due to their blood loss? Or Relief ……

Or fear?

The bloody swords, the invincible hero-like figure, the remains of the enemies, the golden light from the sun, and the godlike figure from before … ….

Extraordinary power.

Was this what the infamous prince of the renowned Dragon clan ? The prince of the strongest Kingdom; Dragonfang Kingdom was like?

Everyone thought of this as they pressed down, hard, on the trembling of their bodies with all they got.

Whether they were humans or demonic beasts, everyone was shocked by this spectacle. Frightened, they all looked up at the distance where the bloody figure who terrified them all was standing.

Even after many years later, this image will not be easy to erase.

Time passed slowly. The silence was like poison; no one dared to breathe.

Should they be happy ?

Should they feel relieved and cheered because they were now safe and alive ?

Some tried to think along those lines. However, upon seeing Lyle’s figure and his surroundings, they couldn’t help but feel terrified.

Their teeth couldn’t stop chattering while they looked ghastly at the Bloody figure, whose body was completely covered with fresh blood and brain matter.

Watching the whole place, which were still stained with fresh blood, and the unmoving yet standing tall with bloodied clothes, they could not help but shudder.

Was this really done by him ? Even if he was the infamous ‘Monster Prince’ he was supposedly just a twelve year old boy …

Although they should be happy of being alive but the feeling they had right now was not happiness but fear. Absolute fear!

… …

However, unlike the surroundings that had returned to being peaceful, the surrounding people were anything but.

The infamous ‘Monster Prince’ slaughtered the enemy single-handedly. He was really a Monster just like what the rumors says— the people’s feelings were in disarray.

Teacher Mirin looked at the scene in daze. Although similar to the surrounding people, she was also feeling some fear budding on her heart, she was still after all an instructor.

In the first place, ghastly place like this wasn’t new to her. The war she had seen and experienced a few years ago was also the same like this, so she had already built some immunity to this kind of scenes.

Damage was minimized because of Lyle. She didn’t plan to deny that point.

As long as Lyle was here, they could safely survive any problems. That was what the Headmaster once said to her after she learned that Lyle was the real dragonfang prince and was actually very powerful.

And now she learned that it wasn’t just any exaggeration.

But, was this really okay?

To resolve a crisis by relying entirely on one strong person?

If she had lost her life, she wouldn’t be here, thinking like this now. Without Lyle’s rescue, she would’ve died already.

He wasn’t proud of his exceptional skills and wasn’t like anyone who was boasting their extreme abilities, and his viewpoint was totally different from everyone else’s.

But……

“No, what am I thinking?”

… …

Misuzu’s thoughts weren’t any better.

She turned around and was about to walked towards him, when …

He turned around and his gaze came across her.

“Ah, it’s great that you’re here, Misuzu.”

He staggered to her, his appearance appallingly terrible.

His face and part of his arm not covered by the black clothes was swollen red. His eyes were all red and tears tracked down his cheeks.

“This … …?”

“Sorry, I use too much mana to maintain my dragon form.”

So he was in pain, but his smile looked more like a spasm. Misuzu felt something pricked her heart.

“I somehow lost myself there for a moment … …”

As if he was shyly……No, looking at him trying to smile and break the awkward atmosphere, she felt her thoughts were too foolish.

“Master, are you okay ?” A voice resounded from the quiet place.

“I’m fine … don’t worry about me. ” Lyle shook his head. “… Anyway, Sakura burn the remains … ”

“Ha~ That’s why I told you to be careful, Master. ” The two black thin swords floated up in the air and turned into two beautiful foxes. The flaming red fox turned around and walked towards the bloody battlefield and spewed a huge flames … enveloping the whole place.

” … Maintaining that form for a long time is very hard even for you. Who knows what will happen if you exhaust your mana in that form …”

“I know, I know … sorry about that.”
