"Shut up!"


    "Hahaha!"


    Alexanderughed like a madman as he ran, his heart fluttered, and he enjoyed every bit of this mood. Sessfully closing the gap, he swung his sword and the man deflected his de.


    When his weapon bounced due to the impact, he recovered it quickly andunched another sh. The man blocked the cut and stepped back to distance himself, however, the kid''s attack didn''t stop and kepting at a rapid speed.


    --Bang! --Bang! --Bang!


    He could feel how his wrists became numb and numbered every time he frantically fended off, yet the brat in front of him seemed greatly relished. He could see how his smile bloomed sinisterly and somehow scared him a bit.


    "A mere 5th Circle dare to act arrogantly in front of me!"


    He had no idea how many times had passed when he started this game of holding off attacks, but he knew for sure that his hand couldn''t take it anymore and howe this little brat didn''t look tired at all? Even by now, sweat had covered his face and fear painted hisplexion.


    --Bang! --Bang! --Bang!


    When he parried Alexander''sst attack, his steps stumbled and ended up rolling on the ground a few times. However, instead of standing in a fighting stance, he turned around and started running. Alexander raised one of his eyebrows, he was astonished but immediately moved his leg to catch up with him.


    "Stop him!"


    "Tsk."


    He clucked his tongue when he saw two soldiers dash at both his side. Since they were a few meters away from him, he hastily created a half circle while running.


    Suddenly, the two of them fell to the ground with clean cuts imprinted on their throats even before they could get close to Alexander. Unbothered by them, he continued to pursue the so-called leader.


    "Where do you think you''re going?!"


    When the distance between them decreased, Alexander sent a sh. Watching how the soldiers died weirdly before they made contact with him, he quickly ducked down and just as he had previously thought, the tree in front of him unexpectedly sliced in half and knocked over the ground.


    --Boom!


    A vibrate could be felt but no one cared as they were busy exchanging blows. Sweat drenched his body and he could feel how it dripped down his back rapidly. Not only did that brat possess such a monstrous power, but he also used a weird sword style!


    ''Just what kind of technique can cut without even touching? It''s simply terrifying!''


    The man kicked the tree trunk in front of him and leaped past Alexander through the air. Seeing an opening, without wasting any time he thrust at Alexander''s back right after hended, but the soil soared up and ate his de.


    The earth barrier cracked as he pulled his weapon and unbeknownst to him, three fireballs shot out through the hole. Unable to avert the attacks, the fireballs struck his body and sent the man flying.


    His body rolled on the ground repeatedly and eventually stopped when his body hit a tree trunk.


    "Urk!"


    He coughed a mouthful of blood as he forced his body to stand up with the help of this sword. Alexander jumped and stood at the top of the earth wall that he previously made.


    The boy let out a satisfied smile and his gold eyes shone brightly when he looked down at him, it was a tant mockery stared. However…


    "My lord! We were surrounded! Please run!"


    Six soldiers ran toward the man and lined up to cover the man''s body.


    "Tsk."


    Alexander clicked his tongue. Definitely that those maggots had ruined his fun. Just, why did those small flies always get in the way?


    He jumped down and they immediately rushed toward him. He sighed in annoyance, oh please, he didn''t have time for them. He just wanted to end this battle as soon as possible before that imp woke up.


    Alexander channeled mana into his weapon and started to run. The sword shook and a faint magic circle was carved on its de and then swung it. A subtle sh of light swept across, followed by a strong wind passed through them.


    The six of them abruptly stopped running and blood spurted from their neck. One by one their heads fell and rolled to the ground.


    --Boom! --Boom! --Boom!<novelnext> For more chapters, please visit </novelnext>


    The troops who were fighting stopped their activities as their footing was lost due to the tremendous vibration on the earth. They turned to the sounds, many trees were cut off, and saw how they were dramatically knocked over to the soil.


    --Tap! --Tap! --Tap!


    And when all of the tremors stopped, a ck-haired boy could be seen running away from the battlefield. Wyatt, who recovered from his shock, immediately shout.


    "Your Highness!"


    Not bothering to look at him, Alexander shouted back at him.


    "I will leave them to you!"


    "Wha--? I, I understand!"


    He turned his attention back to the warzone and yelled.


    "FINISH THEM OFF!"


    "Waahh!!"


    With that, the moring of shing metal was heard once more. Alexander hopped onto a tree branch and used his Wind Elemental to quicken his feet.


    His eyes were busy scanning the surroundings to search for a man in ck. Alexander didn''t know how far he had gone but the cry of the battle was now changed into a dead silent night. As the corner of his eyes caught a glimpse, he instantly swung his sword and a grunt reached his ears.


    He elerated his legs once more and the one he was looking for was seen staggered as he ran whilst clutching his wound on the back. He jumped down andunched another attack aimed at his leg. The man groaned and kissed the soil.


    "I thought your arrogance was up to your skills, turns out it''s just yapping."


    He pushed himself to get up with the aid of this weapon. He stumbled as he turned to face Alexander and this time, raised his sword.


    "Shall we finish this?"


    "Alright."


    The boy''s smiled at the man courageously. They kicked the ground and rushed toward each other, both of them swung their swords, and a loud bang rang out when their des collided.


    As the man had run out of stamina, Alexander could easily throw away his weapon and immediately stabbed his abdomen.


    The sword pierced through his body and gouged out so much blood both from his mouth and the wounds. Alexander grabbed the man''s hand and twisted his sword which was still nted on his abdomen several times.


    "Argh!"


    Somehow his wailing sounded like a song in his ears. Feeling satisfied, Alexander pushed his body and it fell helplessly.


    The man gazed nkly at the stars that scattered in the dark sky. He turned his eyes and red at Alexander with eyes full of resentment.


    His chest heaved up and down because he was having trouble breathing. They exchanged nces for a few seconds before the man suddenly burst outughing.


    "HAHAHA!!"


    Alexander couldn''t help but frown, wondering where the man got the balls tough.


    "Do you think you can stop the raid just because you killed me?"


    It should have been like that, but, upon listening to this man''sst words, why did he suddenly feel uneasy?Was there something he missed? What made the man keepughing like crazy?


    "Hahaha!! You fool! You followed me here is foolishness!"


    However...


    "NO!!"


    Alexander''s scream echoed throughout the forest.
