*Bam!*
"!!!" Both Conrad and Evan could hear that shock wave, as it wasn’t far from the capital city.
They couldn’t help but halt for a mont, not knowing what to do.
Both of them were required to stay here to make sure there was no interference. However, the fact that there was a shock wave this powerful ans two powerful people might be fighting outside the capital city.
"This..." Duke Lorelei squinted his eyes.
"Do you have another helper?" Conrad asked. It wasn’t sothing one asked of their opponent, but they were never enemies.
Evan didn’t have any reason to deny or hide anything. "I don’t know, to be honest. In my plan, I haven’t seen this kind of developnt.
"According to the information, Noel Ardagan would be stopping the third prince, or more like, the demonic human on the east, but I don’t know about this developnt."
"Should we check it out?" Conrad was a bit unsure about this. He might have to remain near the castle to help the victor, whether it was the king or the princess. At the sa ti, this was a threat he couldn’t ignore.
If there were two people that powerful outside the capital city, the situation might turn sour at any mont.
"I don’t know." Duke Lorelei chose to reply truthfully. This situation had beco unpredictable even for him. "Still, I don’t think it’s the three kingdoms."
"Really? With the current situation, our political situation is not stable. If they just wreak havoc in the royal capital, it will be a huge blow to the royal family." Conrad frowned.
"Yeah. I’m sure of that. At the very least, Noel Ardagan should have warned them. I don’t know if you know about him that well, but he’s not soone who would hurt the kingdom even if he doesn’t plan to swear his allegiance." Duke Lorelei shook his head helplessly.
"In that case, there can only be one culprit."
"I agree." Duke Lorelei nodded this ti. "The third prince. His Highness will definitely use this opportunity to attack, but in that case, who stops him?"
"It might be Noel Ardagan. Or maybe, his people. I’ve heard about him having hidden experts."
"I don’t know. Maybe we should check it, but if we go away from here..."
"Yeah."
Both of them could only sigh. If either of them left, the other could take the opportunity to help the king or the princess. So, they couldn’t do it, at least until they settled their business.
If the king or the princess ca out and ordered them to check it, they would imdiately head outside. But the situation didn’t allow them to do such a reckless thing.
They had to wait for a while before doing sothing else.
...
Outside the capital city.
Noel and Victor stared at each other for a few seconds before the trace of their energy disappeared along with their bodies.
The next mont, a huge shock wave occurred as both of them clashed with their swords.
Noel tried to overwhelm him with his strength at first, but it looked like the third prince had been training properly this whole ti. He managed to withstand its power without any problems.
"..." Noel furrowed his eyebrows. Since the third prince wasn’t losing against him, he started to use his king path. Although it was incomplete, his spiritual energy turned explosive all of a sudden, which should be enough to overwhelm Victor.
To his surprise, Victor was actually doing the sa thing.
"!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock. "What?"
Victor grinned as he unleashed all he had. Both of them knocked each other away. "Do you think you’re the only one who can use it?"
"No. This is not the king path... As expected, you are not a human anymore." Noel obviously recognized this energy. It was the sa energy as the one the Supre Devil had shown him. "You’re a demonic human. Is this how you grow stronger so quickly?"
"This world is unfair. Even Anna Stargaze had to train from young to be compared to you, but you... soone who got exiled and never had the interest to wield a weapon suddenly beca the rising star of this kingdom.
"If humans are unfair, why would I be human?" The third prince smirked.
"Heh?" Noel snorted. "Unfair, huh?"
While it was true that the world was unfair in one way or another, his unfairness ca from the system, which was Ardagan. Ardagan himself was a sword forged personally by the Spirit God, so he was a divine artifact.
His condition was similar to Rui’s, who had a divine artifact. So, his strength ca from the divine artifact.
Still, the spirits had ranks and compatibility, which was indeed unfair. However, the spirits had made it as fair as they possibly could because every person had a link to their respective spirit.
If they grew together with their spirits, they could still reach a certain height. They might not be able to be compared to him, but they could beco sothing decent.
Unfortunately, the resource wasn’t infinite, so it was indeed unfair, as the talented ones would be treated specially.
Still, there was sothing weird about the third prince. Since when did he beco a demonic human for him to be able to wield his power to this level? If an ancient demon was equal to a spirit transcendence, it ant the demon king was equal to a spirit king.
Victor’s strength was already equal to an ancient demon, and he was approaching the demon king level.
The sa applied to the Supre Devil.
It was at this mont he figured out one more possibility. His ancestors fought against two demon kings one thousand years ago. What if... those two demon kings were inside the supre devil and the third prince and were controlling them this whole ti?
The reason he hadn’t found any sign of the demon kings might actually be this. This could explain the growth of the third prince’s strength. When he first t him, the third prince looked like he was a grandmaster, but in just a short while, he was close to the demon king level.
"The demon you swallow... Don’t tell ... It’s the original form of the demon king?" Noel’s expression turned grim.
