Chapter 108 - Gathering Of The 7 Novas (IV) (1/2)

The terrifying news regarding the 4th imperial prince of the Djage Empire killing the commander of the Red Flame mercenary who was a 7th rank warrior along with the massacre of all the members of the Red Flame mercenary group swept through the resting place overnight, startling countless people.

The fact that the 4th imperial prince was able to destroy the Red Flame Mercenary group was not a big deal, as he had the power and the backing to do so, but what startled them was how he actually killed the commander of the Red Flame mercenary who was a 7th rank warrior.

Even some of the members of the 7 novas who were watching this scene secretly from the distance were shivering since they didn't know how the imperial freak was able to accomplish such a thing. This was just too domineering, they had never seen a powerful 7th rank warrior get killed like that, without the opponent lifting a finger. Furthermore, the commander didn't even have the chance to fight back or resist as he killed himself unwillingly with a nightmarish look on his face from the order of the 4th imperial prince.

While people were still trying to cope with this news, Shad was sitting in his tent along with two important guests.

” You really have gotten stronger, Clyde,” Shad said while he was looking at the young man sitting in front of him with a satisfied look on his face. Last time they've met, Clyde was only a 3rd class mage but now, just after two months or so, he has broken through the 4th class mage. Even though his speed wasn't comparable to his, it was still heaven-defying. Furthermore, he became more mature and had a determined look on his face.

” Compared to the protector, my strength isn't worth mentioning,” Clyde said with a respectful tone.

Before Clyde and his father had come to meet Shad, the old ancestor of the Kalel family had warned them time and time again to not do anything foolish. He didn't know why his grandfather who was a scary figure and had an unbelievably high position in the Djage Empire was acting very cautious when it comes to the 4th imperial prince, one could even say that he was a little afraid of him. He always thought it was because of the 4th imperial prince's new status which was higher than even the Emperor himself.

However, after coming here and saw Shad in person after two months or so, Clyde finally have an idea why his grandfather as well as his father were really cautious of Shad.

When he saw Shad killed the 7th rank warrior without even lifting a finger, his eyes flashed in terror. For him, Shad was like a slumbering beast that could devour all of his enemies at any moment.

At this moment, while Clyde was looking at Shad, he felt a huge sense of pressure in his heart. In the past, when he had fought against Shad in the academy and was defeated, he knew that he had ways to go before he could catch up to him.

He knew that there was a huge gap between them, but at that time, he thought that in breaking through the 4th class mage, he would be able to close that gap between himself and Shad. Alas, now, he realized that this was not true at all. After seeing the man in action today, he understood the true disparity between them.

This sudden discovery terrified him and gave him a chill in his heart. He didn't know whether to respect this young man in front of him or fear him. He had also heard about his past accomplishments, but he always thought that the people were exaggerated. However, now it seemed like it was the opposite.

Nonetheless, after his training in solitude, Clyde had become more open-minded. He knew that no matter how strong a person is, there will always be someone stronger. Even though Shad was twice stronger than him at the moment, he won't give up and will train harder in order to defeat him one day.

” General Gomez, you got here before me, so do you know how many people are in this resting place and how powerful they are,” Asked Shad.
