A few seconds ago,
Alex was flying toward Evelyn's location, where Nicole said that the Zhou Soldiers were going to rape her.
"I will arrive in a few seconds, stall them," Alex said coldly. He forgot that this was the norm in this world, especially for women. Sometimes, even death was better than rape, and Evelyn chose that.
Alex wanted to prevent it from happening since he almost arrived. He asked Nicole to make a move just to buy time for a few seconds for him.
"Sherry, Kyle. Bombard them with our Fire Phoenix."
"Yes."
And when he finally arrived,
"Of course not. I am not your opponent since my job here is done as my king finally appears!" Nicole said.
"Huh, what d-!"
Before he finished, Alex finally appeared along with three fire phoenixes.
"Fire Phoenix Art, First Stage. Phoenix Summon."
The phoenixes immediately flew toward the nearest soldiers.
"Boom Boom Boom!"
"Ah!"
Alex's appearance was cold even in this intense heat from the phoenixes.
"Anna, Leoz, Leave no one alive!" Alex said coldly.
"Understood." Leoz and Anna appeared in front of him and started swinging their weapon around.
"Big brother Alex…" Evelyn called his name with her tired voice, there was even a trace of sobbing in her voice. She had given up her life, but Alex saved her once again.
Alex looked at her, "Even your 'brother,' that whatever Crown Prince, wanted to kill you in this war. We are not going to participate in this war again okay? We are going back to the sect."
In her state, she was not capable of rejecting his idea. In fact, she was also a bit tired of this war. She just wanted to protect her kingdom, but it was useless. She almost died in this place, and no one might care. She said, "Yes."
"Leave everything to me," Alex said. He did not have any intention to participate in this war any longer since he had lost his interest. He did not care about EXP and gacha tickets anymore. Even If the Thiveapia Kingdom were destroyed in this war, he would not even pity them.
But if his spirits were going to continue in this war, he would not object to it. He was the one who lost interest in it, not them.
"Yes." The moment she said that, all the tense she had just now finally vanished. Her exhausted state finally kicked in as she finally passed out.
Alex caught her before she dropped to the ground. He was thinking about giving her in Nicole's care for the time being, but when he looked around, he did not see her anywhere.
"Nicole?" Alex tried to call her but got no response.
[Host, Nicole wants to talk.]
He was startled to see this notification. He immediately picked Nicole's card.
"What is it? Where are you?"
"I am scouting around the area, Young Master. But more importantly, I saw that crown prince's group. He is coming to you with three thousand soldiers and they will arrive in a minute. What are you going to do?"
"It is obvious. They must come to this place not as a reinforcement but because they want to kill us. Every enemy that wants to kill me, I won't let them get away whether they are a pitiful person or a beauty." Alex said coldly.
Alex immediately took out Anya's and the others' cards. "I am going to summon all of you."
No one complained when he said that. In fact, they did not have anything to do other than glaring at those Zhou Soldiers that holed up in the cities. They would not even realize if Anya and the others had disappeared.
Anya did not try to hug him as usual because she felt he did not have any mood for that judging from his tone. When she saw Evelyn, she immediately checked her condition.
"Don't worry. She just used too much Spiritual Energy. She might be unconscious for a few days, but as long as she rests for a few days, she would be fine. There won't be any after effect." Anya said.
Alex nodded. "Thank you."
"I want all of you to go around and ambush the incoming army from behind," Alex said.
"Understood. Massacre all of them, right?" Anya said coldly.
"Yeah. Oh, there is one person that you need to spare for a little bit longer." Alex nodded. He then looked at Jeanne, "I am sure I will be fighting with that crown prince. After I am done, I will leave him to you."
"Ah! Nice." Jeanne smiled brightly.
"How about the young man beside him? Jack or whatever it is along with that old man?" Anya asked.
"No, I don't have any interest in that old bone or that person. I am just going with that crown prince. So, Jeanne will only have one person this time. Make sure you do it to the fullest."
"Of course." Jeanne nodded furiously.
"Now go. They will arrive in this place at any moment."
Anya and the others immediately disappeared. Nicole seemed to have noticed their presence too, and immediately guided them so they could go around them without getting spotted.
Leoz and Anna also seemed a little bit frustrated. They knew that Alex was a bit fond of Evelyn because she reminded him of his younger sister. So, they made sure they finished all of them as soon as possible and killed that bastard, crown prince.
When Alex looked at them, they finally finished killing all of them.
"We have finished all of them."
"Good. Leoz, how is your condition?" Alex asked. He could see that around 70% of Leoz's Spiritual Energy was depleted. Most of it was because of the skill he used to open a path for them.
"I am good, Young Mas-!"
"Hahaha… What do we have here? An exhausted man, unconscious little girl and two other people. But, she is our Kingdom princess, how dare you try to kidnap her?" There was suddenly a voice coming from their rear.
They finally came.
"If it is for buying time, I can hold the old man for a little bit. Besides, I think I am going to level up soon. I will recover all of my energy when I level up. Maybe a hundred Grandmasters would be enough to level up since our experiences are shared." Leoz said.
Alex furrowed his eyebrows. "System, give me Leoz's status.
[Leoz (Thunder)
Level: 36/80 (6-Star Martial Lord Stage)
Exp: 266841/270000]
Alex was surprised to see he only needed three thousand more EXP to level up. But he said he needed around a hundred Grandmasters just to level up. He knew that if Leoz killed a Grandmasters, he would only get around three to five hundred EXP.
And they were distributed to around fifteen spirits. It seemed he had put a big burden upon Leoz.
"Alright. We will make sure you can level up as soon as possible." Alex nodded. He then looked at the incoming people with his Spirit Eyes.
Other than Oliver, Jack, Cromwell, with two other people being the Martial Lords. The rest of the soldiers were Martial Grandmasters.
"It seems, you are determined to kill her in this place," Alex said.
"Haha, What do you mean? I am trying to stop you from kidnapping her!" Cromwell laughed as he kept twisting the fact.
"Wait wait. Look at the black-haired woman behind him. I can't see her face since it is covered with a veil. But looking at her body and facial expression, this woman must be a beauty. I am going to have this woman for tonight. We can bring the women back and kill the men." Jack said vulgarly while eyeing on Anna's figure.
That displeased Alex even further. Alex walked to a nearby big rock and put down Evelyn there.
"Sherry, Kyle, make sure you protect her," Alex said.
Sherry and Kyle suddenly came out from his body and nodded their heads. Cromwell and the others were surprised to see them appear just like that. They never thought Alex had some monsters around him, and they were very intelligent.
When Oliver saw Kyle, he was so shocked to see a living phoenix. His eyes became even more greedy. He shouted, "Hand over all of your possession and that phoenix. I will grant you a quick death."
Alex walked toward Anna and Leoz. The army was a bit scared of Leoz since they saw what Leoz did on the battlefield. But since the crown prince said he was already exhausted, he should not be able to use that technique again. They were a bit relieved.
"Haha… A quick death is it?" Alex said. He took out his sword, and the atmosphere became tense.
"Is it something like this?" Alex swung his sword casually and suddenly he flicked his finger. An array appeared below Jack's feet, and he was teleported in front of Alex.
"Eh-?!" Before they realized it, Jack's head was already flying.
Alex wanted to use it on the old man, but he doubted he could kill that old man in a single swing like that. After all, even though this old man was hateful, he seemed to be experienced enough just by looking at his Sword Intent. So, he chose Oliver's son as an example of his own word.
"Space… It is a space element! But he… he is also an Array Master. Don't tell me, he is a Space Element Array Master?" Cromwell shouted.
But Oliver was different. Seeing his son died just like that, he was angered beyond belief. "You bastard. How dare you kill my son!"
"You want to kill me and expect me not to kill your son? Are you dumb?" Alex said coldly. He also gave his order to Anna and Leoz, "Anna, kill those two 7-Star Martial Lords. Leoz, stall that old man for a little bit. As soon as you recover your energy, kill him along, and help Anna."
"Understood." Both of them nodded.
"Soldiers, Don't panic! Even if he is an Array Master, he is going to kidnap our Princess Evelyn! We can't let this go. As the soldiers of Thiveapia Kingdom, we will bring whoever tries to kidnap our princess down. Soldiers Ki-!" Cromwell shouted, trying to twist the fact. But before he finished, Alex was the one who shouted first. "Kill them all!"
The soldiers suddenly got their momentum stopped. They were ready to charge toward them, but because Alex got the better of him. But Alex's shout was not aimed at Anna and Leoz. Instead, he was aiming at Anya and the others.
"Boom Boom Boom!"
"Attack Attack! Our rear is ambushed!" The soldiers started panicking as they never saw this coming.
"There is a group of people and monsters attacking us from behind."
"Go!" Alex said to Anna and Leoz.
"All of you are going to die," Anna said coldly as she swung her scythe to the 7-Star Martial Lords.
"Hmph, you won't be able to defeat me in your exhausted state." As expected of Oliver, he was the one who did not lose in the initiative. He moved at the same time as Leoz. Their swords collided with each other.
"All of them said that before they die under my sword," Leoz said coldly.
Alex looked at the crown prince as he took off his mask, "You are going to die in this place."
"You… You!" Since Alex was already famous because of the wanted poster as well as his Sword and Spear Technique, Cromwell was able to recognize his face immediately.
He never thought the masked man was Alex. But when Alex took off his mask, his cultivation was also visible again.
"Attack Attack. Even though he is an Array Master, his cultivation is only 2-Star Martial Lord. He won't be able to win against this many people!"
The soldiers gained a little more confidence and rose from their feet and marched toward him.
Alex took out his spear and released both of his domains.
"What? Fifty meters Spear and Sword Domains…" The crown prince gasped.
But there was one more thing, both domains suddenly fused with each other and created an even stronger domain. They felt the sharpness of this domain that made them feel chill.
Alex narrowed his eyes as he said coldly, "All of you will die."
