Chapter 187 - Yale

Somewhere in the border of the Lust Kingdom, Yale hit another monster's head and ultimately killed it.

"Huft." He panted a few times while wiping the sweat on his forehead. "This is truly hard."

After visiting many places, Yale had finally prepared to go to the Gluttony Kingdom.

"It's been two months. With the way I'm right now, I should be able to reach my destination in three days." Yale narrowed his eyes. He had improved so much in this battle.

If Albert were here, he would be able to see his improvement from the level alone.

Name: Yale Te Pride

Race: Werewolf

Level: 170

Although his level didn't increase as much compared to the progress he had shown in the past few months with Albert, he had a big leap in terms of fighting techniques.

His mastery in 5-Star Spells were already at the level of a master. He was simply lacking of 6-Star Spell or he would be able to use that already and graduate.

Still, he didn't want to graduate in the middle of nowhere. To repay Albert for turning his fate around, Yale wished to graduate right in front of him while showing his gratitude.

Hence, he had decided to bring Renee back before learning any 6-Star Spell.

"I guess my training is done now." Yale took another deep breath before his expression became grim. He looked at his surroundings and shouted, "Come out."

Suddenly, seven figures emerged from behind the trees. All of them had covered their bodies completely, so Yale wouldn't know anything about them other than their body's build.

Yale furrowed his eyebrows and understood the reason why they came here. He observed all of them and shook his head in disappointment. "Black Fang Squad. So, the crown prince thought it wasn't worth it to bring me to his side. To think he would send Black Fang Squad he personally trained to me. I wonder if I should feel honored or humiliated."

One of them suddenly stepped forward and stated, "There's no need for useless talk. Showing our appearance and not ambushing you are the last respect we can give you, Your Highness. Please don't blame us as we simply fulfill our mission."

"Hahaha." Yale laughed out loud while snorting. "Not even sending a general class figure to kill me and you think you can kill me? I've got my answer. I am now humiliated by this treatment."

The leader raised his two daggers while squinting his eyes, preparing to charge. He said, "Since that's the case, we can only prove our competence."

In that instant, these seven figures charged forward at the same time.

Yale smirked as a huge magic circle appeared on the ground, enveloping all of them. The light coming from the circle made them lose their power.

"What is this?" One of the assassins panicked and looked down.

None of them said anything, but the confusion was clear to see from their eyes. All of them immediately took a leap backward to understand what was going on first.

"Do you think I haven't noticed you following me since a few hours ago? Why would I waste half an hour of my time to fight that weak monster?" Yale smirked and glanced at the monster he spent too much time to kill.

"!!!" The leader widened his eyes in shock as he came to a realization. "You made us think you're weak?"

"That's why I said this is a humiliation." Yale stomped the ground as another light enveloped his body, increasing his physical ability. He just used his Anger of Bonk and Bonk Sacrament which were perfect to increase your ability and weaken your opponents. After that, he released his killing intent and stated, "To think the crown prince would send these weaklings to kill me. I'm humiliated!"

In that instant, Yale disappeared.

"!!!" The assassins were shocked when they saw Yale re-emerging in front of one of them. It was hard to even follow Yale's movement.

And the moment he reached the assassin's position, Yale waved his Bonk Bat with all his strength.

Bonk Wave Emission.

The light and darkness energy flew out of the bat and struck the assassin from point blank range.

The assassin didn't even have the chance to react before that energy split him into two. The remaining energy hit the ground and exploded, swallowing Yale and two other assassins.

Still, Yale kept up with his movement and used Anti-Horny Step to move away from the explosions.

As if he could follow Yale's speed, the leader appeared next to Yale while waving his dagger, trying to kill him.

"Kh!" The guy gritted his teeth when he realized he couldn't even push Yale's back with his strength. He glanced at the two assassins that got swallowed by the explosions. "Are you two alright?"

Unfortunately, both of them had some problems. One of them had his body burned by the explosion while the other lost one arm.

On the contrary, the other assassins immediately moved forward to kill Yale since they had been trained to focus on their target instead of their teammates.

Yale smiled and stomped the ground again.

The leader thought Yale planned to increase his power, but he was tricked.

This sixth prince of them actually used the slight hesitation in his mind to wave his hand, pointing it at the two injured assassins.

Bonk Dragon!

A huge bat came out of his hand. Unlike Albert's Bonk Dragon, Yale's bat had white and black color, making it look more menacing.

"Dodge it! Its power is equal to 5-Star Spell!" The leader shouted in panic. He took pride of being the sharpest sword of the crown prince.

Because of the king's reign, they weren't allowed to send a powerful person because they needed them to rule the country. If a 7-Star Magician was easily dispatched, they would be in deep trouble sooner or later.

That was why the leader of this assassination could barely use 5-Star Spell.

Of course, Yale also knew since he was a prince. Although he had no intention in participating in the battle for the throne, Yale still understood the rule to escape from it.

And the information he crammed in his mind finally became useful.

Knowing the assassins were far weaker than their leader, Yale took this opportunity to kill them.

The injured assassins obviously tried to avoid this attack, but Yale's Bonk Dragon had hit them first.

The light and darkness element burst out and shredded their upper bodies apart, killing them.

"!!!" The leader widened his eyes in shock as he never expected the ten years old prince before him was already this strong. "What is going on… How can you be this strong? If you're already this strong when you're still ten years old, what will you become a few years later."

In that instant, he could see Yale surpassing their current king's prowess in a few years. And his strength would continue getting stronger without stopping.

His opinion split into two. On the one hand, he didn't want to kill this prince because he might be able to create an overpowered kingdom. It would be something that everyone in the Pride Kingdom could be proud for. On the other hand, his loyalty leaned toward the crown prince. If he let Yale grow for just a year or two, no one could stop him anymore.

In just a few seconds, he needed to make the hardest decision in his mind… the decision whether he should follow his root which was pride or his loyalty.

The leader gritted his teeth and released all his power. Lightning started sparking all over his body. "You need to die right now."

"Is that so?" Yale smirked as another magic circle appeared behind him.

"!!!" The leader immediately took a leap back when he saw the tentacles coming from the magic circle. He would be captured if he didn't regain some distance.

Unfortunately for him, this was the last thing he should do. Yale immediately spread his tentacles to capture the other three assassins.

The assassins were shocked and tried to slice Yale's tentacles, but everything was just a mere distraction.

As soon as their eyes left him, Yale moved toward the closest one to him, swinging his bat again. "Bonk Wave—"

The light and dark energy gathered around his bat, preparing to cut down another assassin.

"Dodge it!" The leader shouted while jumping forward, trying to help him.

The assassin obviously did his best to avoid Yale's strike, but the tentacles took this opportunity to capture him from behind.

The fluctuation from Yale's bat suddenly disappeared as Yale took this chance to hit the captured assassin. It turned out the Bonk Wave Emission was just a bait.

"Light and Dark Bonk Crusher." He crushed the assassin's head with a single swing before throwing his body toward the assassin leader. "Here you go."

The assassin leader clicked his tongue. He could only catch the body because of his speed.

The moment the body reached him, Yale also appeared and waved his bat downwards. "Bonk Wave Emission!"

The light and dark energy flew forward, cutting the corpse into two. The leader sensed this coming and used one of his daggers to hold it, but the power was too much for a single hand to handle.

In the end, the assassin leader sacrificed one of his arms to get away from this attack.

"Kh." He gnashed his teeth, not being able to see the path to victory. 'Our abilities are restrained by his spell while his power has increased exponentially. We truly need a general class or an assassin equal to S Rank Adventurer to kill him. If not, we can't kill him.'

Since the path to victory had disappeared, the leader shouted without hesitation. "Scatter. We need to bring this news to His Highness!"

As soon as he heard those words, Yale smirked as if he had been waiting for it. Another burst of Magic Power came from Yale's body as he asked coldly, "Do you think you can escape from me?"

With that question lingering in the air, Yale released his trump card.

"Raging Bonk Release."
