Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Noboru woke up; 5 years had passed, and he was now 11 years old. He had grown stronger and achieved unbelievable power. He had fought many and killed many Magic Knights from the Phoenix Kingdom, as well as elite forces that rivaled the Cronus from other kingdoms, such as the Q Force from the Qilin Kingdom and the Anbu Black Ops from the Tortoise Kingdom. The Magic Knights were easy to beat; it was as if they never actually had permission to attack since he never encountered any more Cronus Knights apart from Morgan.
Eventually, the Phoenix Kingdom had stopped sending Knights here. The Q Force and Anbu Black Ops stopped trying to take over the power vacuum left after the Phoenix Kingdom gave up trying to take back Yokaihime when Noboru killed two members who were elites of their kingdom. Noboru had also freed nearby villages, cities, and towns from the three kingdoms.
Noboru walked downstairs, taking in the sight of Elder Fenrir's house, knowing it would be the last time he spent here. Today, he was going to going to Alfheim and save it from the Cronus, Q Force, and Anbu Black Ops. He had trained in the Red Aura state and found out that he could fight anything or anyone that was 7th Dimensional transcendent or lower. Noboru had also started using many different types of manipulation like Law Manipulation and Conceptual Manipulation. He had even perfected Space and Time Manipulation.
"Elder Fenrir, I thank you for your hospitality, even though I am human and a member of the family who enslaved your race. I promise you I will free everyone from the three Kingdoms," Noboru said as he ate the food.
"I know, Noboru. I can see that despite all you have been through, you are a good boy that your Grandpa wanted you to be. I believe that you will be a good king, and I and Yokaihime will pledge ourselves to you when you become king," Elder Fenrir said as Noboru gave a rare smile. He rarely smiled, but when he did, it was only a small smile. "Thank you, Elder Fenrir," Noboru said and bowed.
After the meal was done, Noboru walked to the middle of Yokaihime with a raised hand and a voice that echoed through the city as he declared, "I, Noboru, hereby create a law that shall shield Yokaihime from outsiders. Only its residents and those granted permission by its residents may enter." The very fabric of reality seemed to quiver as he continued, "This law shall be absolute and unbreakable, binding itself to the very essence of our city. Anyone who tries to breach this barrier without consent shall face consequences dictated by the city's will."
As he did every single city he liberated his words took hold of Yokaihime, a shimmering barrier encircled Yokaihime, invisible yet impenetrable, pulsating with the power of his newly created law. A nearby demihuman approached Noboru, his eyes wide with wonder. "Noboru, you've done it! Yokaihime is now safe from the kingdoms' intrusion."
The Demon Goddess Realm
A red eye opened, and the owner of the eyes gave a smile. "So, Noboru-Kun, you have decided to choose that path. Interesting. I will help you, my dear Noboru-Kun," Ayame said as she, with just channeling her omni energy, made the law stronger and affected everyone and everything that was below her—a being that, with a single glance, can destroy the entire Demon Goddess's realm and everything below it and see it and everything as fiction, well, apart from her Noboru-kun, but that was for a different day.
Yokaihime
Noboru felt the law he had created take effect. He teleported outside and tried to lure a monster from the forest in, but it couldn't enter. "Hey, Kitsumi, can you allow this little guy in?" He asked as she did what he asked, and the monster was able to enter the city. Once Noboru was done with his test, he pulled out a sword, and the monster was slashed before the sword was swung. Noboru smiled; he loved reversing causality. It was a simple way to kill beings that were an annoyance to deal with, not for being strong, but just because they were a nuisance.
"Well then, Kitsumi, I will see you around. I am heading off to Yokaihime now," Noboru said as Kitsumi waved him off. Noboru decided to sit on Drakaroth as he walked a bit. A few hours had passed, and Noboru continued to sit on Drakaroth, his dragon companion, while he walked through the forest to Alfheim. Although he could teleport, he felt that something needed his attention when suddenly he heard a scream.
"Help. No! Don't take my daughter, you evil humans!" Noboru heard a woman cry out. He ran to the area to see a female vampire being pushed to the ground by a Nakamura. Noboru channeled some omni-energy into his eyes, ears, and nose, increasing his senses so he could hear everything clearly.
"Be grateful, inhuman inferior scum. Your daughter will be used to breed and bring greatness to our clan. You see, after researching, the Phoenix Kingdom has found out that if humans breed with beings who have a similar affinity to them, in my case the Nakamura Hemomancy and your lower vampire's natural affinity to blood, we can create stronger heirs that have a stronger affinity to blood. With all your abilities and our human omni-energy, we can channel it to make sure they're human," said the Nakamura clan's men.
Noboru was disgusted. Over the years, thanks to Demi-Human heat cycles in Yokaihime, he had learned a lot about sex and love from Elder Fenrir who taught him. So he knew about woman and man relationships, but to see the Phoenix Kingdom willing to destroy a sacred act for power disgusted him. Noboru surrounded himself in red energy and appeared in front of the Nakamura, slashing the man's right hand off before he could touch the vampire girl.
"So, this is what the Phoenix Kingdom has resorted to," Noboru said as he looked at the Nakamura clansmen. Searᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Beast, this is where you were. This is good; I will kill you and claim the bounty and the young hot piece of ass," the Nakamura clansmen said, rushing at Noboru with his left hand using metal claws to try and claw Noboru. The Nakamura was a 5th-dimensional transcendent. Noboru blocked his metal claws with his sword, pushing him back and slashing the man's leg, making him drop to his knees.
"Is this all you have, you disgusting pedophile?" Noboru said as he slashed the Nakamura's head off as soon as he heard the foolish Nakamura say age is just a number, the younger the better. Noboru looked at the man with disgust. He helped the little girl and her mother.
"Oh my God, it's you, the Black Star Knight, the Phoenix Kingdom's Chikara clan's disowned prince who fights the injustice of the three Kingdoms," said the little girl, making her mother's eyes widen.
"Thank you so
much, Black Star Knight, sir," the mother said as Noboru gave a light smile.
"You needn't thank me; I would do the same for anyone. But you should leave; the Phoenix Kingdom is trying to capture you two, so be careful," Noboru said as the mother nodded in agreement.
"Yes, thank you. You helped our village, now you helped me. Do you need a place to rest? My home is open to you," she said as Noboru shook his head.
"I am sorry; I can't stop. I have to make my way to Alfheim. I have to complete my goal," Noboru said as he gave her a smile and jumped on Drakaroth's back, and the dragon ran through the forest. Noboru had a goal to liberate half of the Forbidden Regions from the three kingdoms, which he had mostly done. He had also created laws to prevent them from being taken back before turning the age of 12 when he would be attending Celesital Vanguard Academy. He only created the law on Yokaihime today because he was always there to protect it and didn't see a need until today, as he would be leaving Yokaihime to liberate Alfheim.
A few weeks had passed, and eventually, Noboru made it to the gates of Alfheim. He had saved many kingdoms, cities, towns, villages, and people on the way, and now all that stood in his way was liberating the most guarded city in the entire Forbidden Region from Cronus, Q Force, and Anbu Black Ops.
