Chapter 261: Old goat man's plans

'What? How is this possible?'

The old goat man touched his neck and felt blood gushing out from the cut made from earlier.

'If not for my timely escape, my head would have flown away.'

All of a sudden, the old goat man's back was completely covered with sweat and silently thought to himself.

'Looks like he became a guardian for a reason. I have to be careful; otherwise, I will die if that huge blade slashes through me.'

Looking at the huge black-coloured blade in Henrick's hands, the old goat man muttered to himself and deeply noted down in his mind.

'Also, what is that thing that blocked my attack?'

Soon, he thought of something and looked at the huge fire vine which was completely destroyed by a couple of meters and fell to the ground without any movement.

'So, he had a battle companion.'

Finally, the old goat man understood how Henrick was able to dodge his attack and looking at Henrick, he said, "So, what now? Your battle companion is good but it was unable to survive my attack."

The old goat man sensed that there were no traces of life in the fire vine and continued to say, "Don't worry too much. I will send you to meet it soon enough."

Until earlier, he was worried a little because of the huge blade in Henrick's hands; however, after seeing that the young man had used his battle companion as a shield, he understood that Henrick's defences will not be as strong as his huge blade.

So, the old goat man thought, as long as he was careful with the huge blade, he could easily kill Henrick.

'Wait for a second. Instead of killing him myself, I will let that human kill Jaude then I can still return back to the world to inform the king that Jaude was killed by the guardian.'

'However, I might be punished by the king, because of the family head, he will not be too severe. Moreover, I can say that I had taken revenge for the crown prince. This is the perfect plan.'

Even though the old goat man thought he could leave his homeworld after getting the world soul, he was a little attached to his homeworld and if there was a chance, he wanted to do everything that needed to be done to be able to 'come and go' to his homeworld.

As for whether the King would believe or not his story, he was too confident that the King would believe because the king can use one of the priests to check whether he killed Jaude or not.

Since he will not kill Jaude, the old goat man didn't have to worry about it. So, he thought it was the perfect plan.

'Is it really dead? No, it can't be possible, right?'

As for Henrick, he was not worried too much because he knew the fire vine had a skill called 'Rapid regeneration' which can help the fire vine to get back to its original size even if there is an inch of its body left behind.

Currently, only two meters of its 25 meters length body got destroyed. So, within a matter of a few minutes, it can regenerate the lost two meters.

Only then, it can fight again.

'Until then, I have to stall them.'

Even though Henrick had few things that could help his life, he wanted to try his beast before using them.

"Crown prince, I need a small break. Can you kill him?"

The old goat man didn't wait for Jaude's reply as he flew to one corner of the cave and sat down to cultivate.

However, he was not cultivating in reality; instead, he was watching Jaude and Henrick.

'Fight him, my dear crown prince.'

The old goat was quite excited as he muttered to himself.

'What happened to this old man?'

As for Jaude, he frowned when he saw the old man's actions; however, he was a proud goat man. So, he didn't think Henrick could kill him.

'The huge blade was able to cut through the skin of the old man. So, I have to be careful with it.'

Nevertheless, he watched Henrick's earlier movements and his battle companion which sacrificed itself to save Henrick's dantian and thought something.

Among all of them, Jaude felt the huge black-coloured blade was a threat to his life and he had to be careful with it.

"Insect, since you are going to die anyway, I will let you attack me first. So, come and attack me."

Even though Jaude acted like he was giving a chance to Henrick, in actuality, he was taking a chance for himself.

When it comes to the battle, Juade was a professional in handling those who came to attack him. Moreover, he still didn't know what kind of attacks Henrick was hiding.

"Are you sure?"

Henrick revealed a slight smile on his face as he asked Jaude.

"Of course. If I attack you, you will die in a single attack. So, why don't you come and attack me first."

Jaude nodded his head while shrugging his hands.

'As long as you are within my reach, I will suffocate you to death.'

However, Jaude was evilly laughing inside his heart.

"No. Since you are the invader why don't I give you a handicap? This offer will be better than yours. I will not move from my place and you can attack me once. What do you say?"

However, Henrick was more paranoid when he heard Jaude's words. So, he gave the offer back to Jaude and even said that he would not move from his place.

'Damn it...looks like he is clever. I will just use the royal spear to kill him.'

The earlier method he thought to kill Henrick was a more tortuous one and Jaude liked it when his enemies were suffocated to death with the worst nightmares.

Since that method failed, Jaude chose the direct way to kill Henrick.

"Since you asked for it, take this."

As soon as he finished his words, Jaude summoned a black-coloured long spear from his storage ring and threw it at Henrick.

'Is he really not going to dodge it?'

Jaude didn't believe that Henrick would stand by his rules and would not dodge this first attack but still, he threw it because Jaude can control the spear to change direction with a thought.

However, when he saw that Henrick was not even trying to move from his place, Jaude became a little surprised; however, he didn't think much because in his eyes, Henrick was just a level 1 energy transformation realm cultivator that didn't require any attention from him, the crown prince of Arctur.

'Puchi'

'Boom'

'Puchi'

'Boom'

Soon, the long spear pierced into something twice and blasted it twice.

"What? It's impossible."

When Jaude saw what had happened he was shocked as he rubbed his eyes to see what just happened in front of him.

'How is this possible.'

The same goes for the old goat man who was watching from a distance with his half-opened eyes.

"It's possible."

As for Henrick, he was standing in the same place with a slight smile on his face and looked at Jaude as though he was seeing an idiot.
