Chapter 93 - The two Strongest people of the 12 Dragon Pillars. (1/2)

After killing the man in black, without wasting any more time, Shad instantly moved like a gust of wind, running away at a high speed to the deepest part of the forest.

Previously, when Shad was surrounded by the men in black, he had ordered Nina to run away further to the north part of the forest after she had captured and heavily injured a 5th rank warrior among them.

They were supposed to meet next to a huge lake after he had taken care of them. Now that he was done, he was in a hurry to get there because the so-called treasure left by Henry was around that area and he was dying to get his hand on it before anyone else. Unlike the other treasure seekers, Shad was well aware of the nature of the treasure left behind by Henry in this place.

A few minutes after Shad had left the location where he had killed the 7th rank warrior, two men dressed in red suddenly appeared next to the huge crater.

Unlike the other men in red, these two men had taken off their hoods, so it was very easy to see their appearances. They weren't young nor old either. However, these two middle-aged men's bodies were emitting an immense aura. With a single glance, one could see that these two men were very powerful, way stronger than the 7th rank warrior that Shad had just killed.

They both stood next to the crater with a solemn expression on their faces while they were looking at the burned and charred corpses on the ground.

” Dragon Fang, if it was you, do you think that you would have been able to kill that 7th rank warrior with a single punch.” Asked the other man with a troubling look on his face.

” With a single punch, I don't think so. Even though I am a mid 8th rank warrior, he would still take me a few moves to kill an early 7th rank warrior, and even more times if that warrior was able to use hardening Qi.” Answered Dragon Fang with an ugly expression on his face.

” This 4th imperial prince is even more terrifying than our young master.” He continued. There was a trace of fear in his eyes when he mentioned the 4th imperial prince.

” Do you think we can defeat him if we combine our strength.” Asked the other man with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

” To tell you the truth, I am not sure but I know that there is only one way to find out.” Answered Dragon Fang with his eyes filled with a raging battle intent.

These two men were quite famous since they were the two strongest of the 12 Dragon Pillars, Dragon Fang, and Dragon Claw. They were both 8th rank warriors and began to follow the crown prince at a young age, even before he became the legendary Uncrowned Emperor. They have weathered many storms together as they were also the first two people that followed the prince since he was just a boy.

The two of them have personally witnessed the prince's hard and glorious life. Because of this, The crown prince thought very highly of them and placed them as the commanders of one of the legions of the Imperial Army of the Draco Empire. However, they refused that title and still set on following him as the members of the 12 Dragon Pillars. Regardless of the circumstances, they always followed their master's command and cleared out all of his obstacles, and they will continue to do so untill their young master reaches the apex.

All along, these two men had been protecting the prince. They rarely leave his side. There have been no obstacles or problems that they weren't able to solve for the imperial prince. They have killed and assassinated countless people that were an obstacle for the prince or opposed him in his quest. They were like two fearless knights protecting their young master and considered him as the brightest and the most talented person of the entire Egul Continent. The person, who one day, will break through the legendary Archmage rank and rule over the whole continent.

However, today, for the first time, after witnessing the battle of the 4th imperial prince of the Djage Empire against the members of the Eye, the hearts of these two men wavered.

After witnessing the overwhelming power of the 4th imperial prince, these two men felt as though this young prince resembled an invincible supreme divine beast. The shocking scene of how the 4th imperial prince pulverized the 7th rank warrior was still fresh in their minds, and every time they thought about it, it scared the wits out of them.

What was even more frightening, even though they were looking at the earth-shaking battle from afar, they were still able to sense and feel the thick destructive and wild aura that was emanating from the prince's body. Each of his strands of red lightning energy was as oppressive as an erupting volcano, capable of collapsing the heavens.

The two had very unsightly expressions. They were considered as unstoppable powerhouses within the Egul continent. When they combined their strength, even a 9th rank warrior would have a hard time defeating them. However now, they were afraid of a single junior.
