Chapter 269 [Bonus ] 21: If You're A Prince. I Am GOD



The lone demon sitting on the pile of corpses looked into the distance, a strange feeling. Something was watching him, a being so powerful he couldn't even find its location.

A demon prince felt fear for the first time since he surpassed low-class titles such as Brute, Knight, Lord... all of it left in the past, yet now, his hands trembled, feeling that existence was calling him to fight.

"I... don't want to fight..." 

However, the moment he refused, the green gem on his chest began to throb, causing intense pain in the demon; his eyes glowed a dark green, almost possessed, veins and muscles writhing under his skin before the glowing stopped.

His lord... The Demon King of Greed ordered him to fight.

The demon prince looked bitter, biting his lower lip as black blood began to ooze from the wound, 

"To think this Valek has to suffer under the likes of you, a damn muscle-headed buffoon! Demon King Andres... I will surpass you one day and crush you under my ass to make the most amazing throne!"

With his parting words, the gem glowed a slight green before fading and likely deeming this fool's words useless. 

After all, Demon Kings could make a new Demon Prince easily.

Valek, clueless, unfurled his winds, the formerly handsome effeminate face now disfigured and ugly, filled with malice and anger, twisted like a true demon's visage.

-

Meanwhile, the battlefield was crazy; the girls were fighting to their best, and some had been heavily wounded and pulled to the back, but those were the elven reinforcements and Lycans who fought with only their bodies and not magic.

'It seems I need to hurry the training in the southern wilds...' Zell thought, stepping into the air, his wings gently swaying to keep him hovering.

He didn't help them anymore, only watching for fatal attacks on any women. 

Anya was the most impressive to him; instead of seeking glory, she would use her passive ability to heal, moving from group to group with Lusia supporting her, as Lusia could cast a similar spell that bolstered the healing of Anya.

"Those two girls need a reward." 

Tessa fought hard but lacked something; Zell watched her fight, knowing he was too kind to her, not letting them fight enough battles with their lives on the line, so he stopped assisting her.

Cuts, bruises and damage slowly built up on her body; what started as a fight overpowering them with her huge sword became more finesse; she spread her silver wings, the beautiful fairy form helping her to dodge and counter only with fatal blows.

'That's it.. Use your body, don't try to copy me... You are a soft, gentle fairy darting in the skies. I am a brutal demon dragging my feet in the dirt and blood.'

The demons were strong; these were not mere brutes and were low-level knights. Only because of the support of the stronger members did they avoid being wiped out. 

Zell looked away from the battle; in the sky, a disgusting monster was approaching; although the size was like a normal man, its power was beyond all the people on this battlefield, enough to make Zell take action, heading to cut the demon prince off.

"Excuse me... It seems you don't have much time."

"You!"

The demon prince called out, sounding afraid; he quickly gathered his wind magic, condensing it and firing a deadly spell, a huge black beam that would skewer Zell. 

Or that was how Valek thought it would go.

Zell easily dodged it, the spell missing him by a mere centimetre; a drop of Zell's sweat fell onto the ground, making a small crater.

Zell's presence changed; it was as if he was using a very strong Wind Shield, one so powerful Valek could not see it, only the effect of the spell disappearing and the small crater in the ground.

"Ugh... A Magic Shield..."

Valek thought his opponent was strong but underestimated him.

'I cannot let down my guard!'

He cast the spell again, a stronger version, but Zell wasn't taking action.

"Well then... You want a handicap?"

He condensed a black wind into a spearhead and threw it towards Zell, the tip aimed at his forehead.

Zell caught the spearhead, bringing his black gauntlet to the spearhead; the crimson gem began to glow as the spearhead was absorbed into it.

"Just in case..."

The black gauntlet changed into a black scythe.

Valek finally understood; he was outmatched, this was the enemy, and it was just playing with him... The scythe made a small 'whoosh' sound as it came back, piercing the prince's abdomen.

"N-No! It can't be!"

"Don't worry... You are still breathing."

Zell answered the cry of Valek as the scythe retracted, leaving the prince hanging on the ground.

Honestly, Zell knew if this guy died, the practice battle of his cute women would end, so he healed the prince, hovering his hand over the damaged body parts, but he left one organ still damaged.

'Wouldn't it be fun to torture this prick slowly? That first spear... It would have killed my cute Anya and Lusia!'

His rage flared up as he reached out, a clawed hand gripping Valek by the neck.

"O-O-Owch..."

The claws dug into Valek's neck, blood seeping between them.

The gem on Zell's chest began to glow green, and the prince's body began to writhe in pain, causing a scream of agony to escape Valek's lips.

"I'll not kill you... But I'll teach you a lesson."

Zell's words sounded a lot like a threat.

"Owch, ouch, ouch!"I think you should take a look at

Valek's head was being squeezed tighter and tighter; Zell brought his head to Valek's ear, whispering,

"Please be my punchbag."

Bang!

Zell's left fist, covered in the black gauntlet, smashed into the face of Valek, while the scythe transformed into a sharp blade coming from the tip of his gauntlet; each time he punched the demon prince, flesh and meat were gouged from his face, making him uglier each time.

The impact of his fist caused a shockwave to explode from Valek's head, making the braid shudder, but the strong body of a demon prince could about survive the blow, with the help of Zell's Anima constantly healing the demon prince.

Zell was a monster; even the king didn't know how strong he was. But Anima helped his body; Zell had trained himself to become stronger.

Even If Valek were at a hundred per cent, he wouldn't need to fight with more than 30% of his actual power.

"Ugh... D-Damn... You!" Valek shouted angrily, looking up at Zell 

Zell chuckled, "You should thank me for saving your pretty little life."

Zell let go of Valek's neck and pulled back his arm, his gauntlet retracting, the Halberd falling into his hand.

"So... Are we done?"

'Yes, you are done; the girls have just wiped out the last of your knights... So you can die now. I will enjoy devouring all of your existence to become stronger.'

Zell grinned triumphantly before lunging at the fleeing Valek, the black Halberd. Tearing through the air and space like butter, the blade severed off the demon prince's arm; the Halberd then returned to Zell's hand.

Slowly, Zell flew towards the fallen prince, now grasping his lost arm and screaming in pain, small black flames constantly burning the wound, stopping any regeneration.

"Ugh...Argh..... why?!"

Valek screamed as he tried to crawl away. He could barely stand, let alone run. Zell's massive clawed feet crushed the earth beneath them; Valek's eyes widened with fear and panic as he realised there was no escape.

"Die... Die..." Valek screamed.

Zell pushed his foot onto Valek's chest, lifting him by the throat.

"I told you to die... I am not going to kill you," Zell said, his voice cold and emotionless.

Zell's deep voice can make Valek's knees buckle in fear.

"What the fuck do you mean... you're killing me now!?" 

"No... this is just bonding... teaching you a lesson."

"Bondi—"

Zell's clawed feet crushed the earth under Valek's body, a huge tremor that caused even the girls several hundred metres away to feel. Valek's legs trembled with spasms while laying on the ground, still choking on his blood.

Zell pulled his foot away from Valek's throat, leaving a gaping hole behind.

"I told you to die... I am not going to kill you," Zell repeated, his voice silky smooth.

The dragon prince licked the blood off his fist before smiling at Valek with razor-sharp teeth, "This is only the start of our journey together..."

"You will just become sustenance for my power..." Zell laughed, his dark red tongue flickering over his lips.

"Death!" Valek screamed desperately.

Zell's wings spread wide, casting a shadow over Valek; immediately, a huge flame burst from Zell's mouth; no time to react, seemingly no cast time; it just burst out of his open mouth, burning the body and soul of Valek, his screams dampened by the explosive sound of the flames that continued to pour out from Zell's mouth.

Zell smiled with satisfaction, licking his fingers clean of Valek's blood.

The huge amount of energy that left the prince's body lingered around Zell, like a maiden in love wanting to know his name and details.

He swiped his black gauntlet around the strange energy, before tearing it apart, like a serial killer assaulting the poor maiden, hundreds of strands and one huge strand no floating before him, gentle, docile as if obeying him.

'Send a single strand into each girl; if leftovers, prioritise Anya, Tessa, Lusia and Elizabeth.' His mind showed the images of the women as the hundreds of small strands began to penetrate the tired and wounded women.

Instantly all are making the lewdest and obscene moans, some looking towards the handsome Zell, his chest exposed, walking towards them with his wings on full display.

The huge strand slowly entered his body through the gemstone, Zell, too, felt a sense of arousal, but he didn't moan.

Instead, he looked at all the women who fought today with the sunniest and most handsome smile he could make, showing his pearly whites.

"Good work, girls; you were all amazing and beautiful."

'This should increase their affection towards me... Although some of them are now touching themselves while looking at me... How interesting, I should do this more often...'

Zell didn't leave, instead choosing to sit on a rock in full view of the recovering women, his eyes watching those doing obscene actions while making sure their eyes met, his lips uttering words to egg them on and inviting them to his tent later that night. 

'What a great life... Killing demon scum... watching sexy women get naked without caring about my eyes... then even sexier women fingering themselves while I watch, hahaha! If Tessa wasn't scowling at me, I might have joined in!'

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the energy from the demon knights was not absorbed yet, so once again, Zell added oil to the fire.

'I forgot that only demons can naturally absorb this shit... Humans needed a strange crystal, right... the Eternum crystal? Something stupid.... that filtered the energy of demons so it wasn't poisonous or something...'

Zell didn't need to worry because the moment he moved the spirit, the red gem in his gauntlet purified it without losing any demon power; the Eternum crystals would only yield 30% of the total gains.

Flicking his left gauntlet, the small stands were sent flying into the bodies of the women who fought the hardest and the lewdest ones.

He seemed to enjoy this, especially that one petite girl who ended up squirting from the pleasure; he noted her blue hair and cute little nose; she was one of the several visiting his room tonight.

"But it seems that the Demon Kings now know of my existence... It seems like the future will be fun~ Hunting princes and crushing lords... fucking bitches la~ la~ la~."
