Chapter 317: End

Charles maintained a considerable distance and followed after Saron quietly.

If he had used any magic spell to fly, she might have sensed the elemental fluctuation and discovered his presence.

Thankfully, Charles purely used his wisdom power to fly.

Meanwhile, Saron went on stealth mode and continued to move.

Occasionally, she would stop along the way, use her [All-Seeing Eyes] skill, and checked the surroundings.

She continued to fly for the next 3 hours and soon stopped as she reached a gothic villa.

The architecture of the exterior facade was exquisite, while the rugged mountains in the background were breathtaking.

The home's white exterior was enlivened by a pitched roof with black shingles and rows of picturesque windows, giving the residence a provincial feel.

The three-storied building shone in brightly in the eerie night and illuminated the nearby farmlands.

Saron circled the villa for a moment and soon descended towards the park while flapping her illusionary wings.

She soon landed on the grassy yard, dismissed her [Sage's Wings] skill, and looked around.

'Hmm? Where are the guards?' She raised her eyebrows and shifted her gaze towards the building entrance.

At that moment, a blue-robed man in his late 40s walked out of the mansion.

He had wavy blonde hair, deep-set oceanic eyes, and a lean body and appeared to be around 176cms high.

He also wore a long green pendant around his neck and looked handsome even in his slightly wrinkled face.

Upon seeing his appearance, Saron nodded her head, stepped forward, and started walking towards him.

Within a minute, she arrived in front of him, knelt on the ground, and greeted him.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

As she greeted him, a hint of a smile appeared on her face.

On the other hand, the 'Red Prince' nodded his head and spoke.

"Stand up." Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt an elemental fluctuation in the sky and stopped!

Saron also widened her eyes as she stood up in a hurry and looked up at the sky.

At that moment, a young man in his late twenties appeared in the dark sky and looked at them coldly.

"C-Charles!" An anxious look appeared on Saron's face.

Meanwhile, Charles descended from the sky and soon landed on the grassy yard.

He then zeroed his gaze on 'Red Prince' and furrowed his brows.

'Hmm? Something feels off about him.' He then shifted his gaze towards Red Prince's hands and noticed a big difference.

Unlike his face, his hands appeared densely wrinkled!

What's more shocking was that the skin tone also didn't match up!

"You are not the Red Prince… His height should be around 185 cm, but you are just 175 cm." His words surprised both Saron and the 'Red Prince.'

Without any hesitation, Saron cast [Sage's Wings] skill, flapped it forcefully, and leaped towards him at a fast speed!

Simultaneously, she took out a long golden spear from her space ring and thrust it towards his head!

Her speed even surpassed Charles's own!

On the other hand, the 'Red Prince' suddenly raised his hand, touched his facial skin, and directly pulled it out!

The next second, the outer skin directly peeled off from his face and showed his actual appearance.

Instead of a man in his late 40s, he appeared more like a man in his late 70s!

But what surprised Charles was something else.

It was a familiar face!

The man had a wrinkled face, deep-blue eyes, a square face, fair skin, and straight eyebrows.

He was none other than Martin Nightwind!

"Well, this is indeed a big surprise," Charles spoke out loud and cast Rank-4 [Sun's Guard] spell.

At that moment, he also started to think.

'How did Martin know about my arrival? I always kept an eye on Saron all this time… Wait.' At that moment, he recalled Saron's strange illusionary eyes skill and soon widened his eyes.

'So, that's it. She must've used that skill to send some information to Martin.' A look of understanding appeared on his face.

While he was in muse, Saron already arrived in front of him and thrust her golden spear towards his shield spell!

A moment later, a loud bang appeared in the yard, followed by a small crack in [Sun's Shield] spell!

After that, a dense amount of dark energy started to gather at the tip of the spearhead.

Anyone could tell that the next thrust would break his shield spell!

But just as Saron pulled the spear, she suddenly forgot how to thrust!

In the meantime, Martin walked into the grassy yard, arrived next to Saron, and spoke.

"Back off. I need you to use that skill on me."

Saying so, he grabbed her golden spear, made a battle stance, and muttered.

"Primal Rage."

Two illusionary black claw-like devil hands appeared behind Martin and gripped the golden spear.

Then, Martin gestured Saron to back away and added.

"Berserk."

A moment later, a reddish blood aura appeared all over his body and completely enveloped him!

His eyes turned bloodshot, and his muscles began to bulge uncontrollably.

Within seconds, he had already grown twice the size as before!

On the other hand, Saron nodded her head, moved more than 50 meters away from them, and cast [Consciousness Link] skill.

The next instant, both of their minds got linked as one!

Even if Charles cast [Burning Thoughts] spell on Martin now, only one of them would be affected!

But Saron didn't end there, though.

She also cast [Wise Sight] skill on Charles and started to find any flaws in his spell!

Under Saron's guidance, Martin held the golden spear tightly and thrust forward towards the cracked golden shield.

Thankfully, Charles had long predicted their action, cast [Flame Teleportation] spell, and disappeared from there.

The next instant, he reappeared ten meters away from where he stood before and was about to attack Martin but froze.

At that moment, Martin seemed to have already noticed his position and sprinted towards him faster.

"Indominant Might!" "Brutal Hit!" He bellowed.

The golden spear danced in the air as he arrived in front of Charles in a second and thrust at him continuously.

Although Charles's [Sun's Guard] spell managed to block two blows, it soon let out a creaking noise, exploded with a bang, and turned into pure energies!

Meanwhile, Martin's third blow directly tore through the broken particles and almost arrived in front of Charles's chest!

Sensing the danger, Charles cast [Burning Consciousness] on Martin and tried to stop his thinking.

Unfortunately, it didn't work!

Although his purple consciousness had long started burning Martin's memories, his movement remained unchanged.

For the first time, a surprised expression appeared on Charles's face.

"Fire Born." He spoke in a hurry.

Just as the golden spear tip touched his chest, Charles's whole body turned into a pure reddish humanoid flame and completely nullified Martin's attack.

But even after Charles turned into a Fire Being, Martin didn't stop his attack at all.

Instead, he went fiercer!

'Damn, this guy is tough.' Charles cast [Crimson Steps] spell, backed away calmly, and waved his hand.

At that moment, the whole surroundings started to move slower.

It was his [Accelerate Consciousness] skill.

Charles then fixed his gaze on Martin and spoke.

"Pseudo-Domain."

The surroundings began to turn blurry and were soon replaced with ember rocks, lava pools, elemental fire plants, and volcanic mountains.

Before Martin or Saron could even blink, they found themselves standing in a completely different place!

Unlike the outside world, the rules in his Pseudo-Domain were similar to that of his Inner World.

The next second, the gravity inside his Pseudo-Domain increased to five-folds.

Not only that, but Charles's movement speed also increased all of a sudden!

A moment later, an immense pressure appeared all of a sudden and started crushing their bodies.

Even Martin couldn't withstand the pressure and knelt on the ember-filled ground!

A painful groan leaked out of his mouth as he felt the burning sensation from his knees.

On the other hand, Charles casually extended his hand, conjured a reddish flame sword, and moved towards him.

He then placed the sharp tip on Martin's throat and asked.

"Where is he?"

"'Cough' Haha, you are too late. I've long informed 'His Highness' about your arrival, Charles." Martin made a mocking grin and said in disdain.

At that moment, Saron also stood up with great difficulty from afar and spoke.

"When I cast the [All-Seeing Eyes] skill, I made my Incarnation as an illusionary eye and sent it to relay the news to Martin. You lost."

Upon hearing those words, the corner of Charles's lips curled upward.

"Do you think so?" He smiled mischievously and slashed the flame sword at Martin's neck.

The next instant, a neat cut appeared on his neck region and completely cleaved his head.

Then, both his head and body fell.

Martin's body started to twitch uncontrollably.

Simultaneously, scarlet blood splattered everywhere but soon got burned by the embers.

Meanwhile, Charles walked past the twitching body and soon arrived in front of Saron.

Upon sensing his cold gaze, Saron gritted her teeth and spoke.

"Kill me."

A cold smirk appeared on Charles's face.

"Your death shouldn't be so easy, Saron."

Saying so, he suddenly extended his right hand, gripped her neck, and threw her into the nearby lava pool!

A second later, Saron's shrill cry echoed in his Pseudo-Domain.
