Chapter 45 - Ambush (III) (1/2)

As soon as Shad grabbed the leader, he did not dare to stay there any longer. This person must have weight almost a hundred and ninety pounds, but Shad held him with his right hand as though it was nothing. whether it was his speed or actions, they did not get affected in the slightest by the unconscious man. Even though he was as strong as a 5th rank mage or a warrior, he could not defeat seventy men all by himself without any support, not to mention most of them were warriors.

Instead of stopping, he suddenly increased his speed. He was like an arrow shooting through the air.

Whoosh! the leaves on the trees shook as he rushed out the forest. While the group of people followed him with this great sense of urgency, they did not notice that Shad had changed his directions. They had only one thing on their minds, saving their leader, otherwise, even if the mission was successful and the leader died, all of them would still die as punishment.

While they were giving the chase, they did not stop shooting arrows at Shad. however, they were clearly concerned about the fact that Shad was holding that person and did their best to avoid him getting hit by mistakes.

' this person was definitely not a regular person.' He thought as he was running away.

Even though there were mad and furious while chasing after Shad, they were extremely puzzled as well. They couldn't imagine how the 4th prince was able to penetrate into the center of their formation and took hostage their leader. One has to know, their formation was set up in a way that would be impossible for an enemy to sneak attack any of them because as soon as it was done, the whole group will notice. Yet the 4th prince managed to capture their leader who was at the center of the formation, the place that was the most heavily guarded. Plus, what kind of speed was that, is he even human!

Even with everything that was happening, the man in Shad's clutches was still unconscious and oblivious to everything that was happening.

The group of people continued to follow Shad within the forest. However, as the got away from the forest, uneasiness slowly crept inside their hearts. they felt as though something was wrong, and when they looked at the direction where Shad was off too, they were instantly stunned.

The 4th prince that was running away with all his might with their leader, was now standing ahead of them with a calm and composed demeanor.

He looked completely at ease, and that fact made them uneasy. He had dropped the leader on the ground and both of his hands were behind his back.

He disdainfully smiled and calmly looked at them approaching. ” well-done guys, you finally made it.” He said with a sneer.

Listening to the 4th prince, all them were puzzled they did not know what to say. Is the 4th crazy? they thought.
