Chapter 270 Red Fire Kingdom

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Blood Devil and the others were going to collapse soon.

Now, not only William was strong at defense and recovered quickly from injuries, but he also had various divine prediction abilities. They didn’t even dare to look him in the eye.

They felt as if they had been seen through by William. He seemed to know everything about them, from their little secrets to trump cards.

It could even be said that William knew of their gay relationship…

Even though there wasn’t any concrete evidence, the three vampires couldn’t help but feel like William knew it all.

“Our only advantage now is blood control, but he still has more magic scrolls.” Blood Devil was having a mental breakdown. He glanced at his other two comrades.

They could only retreat now!

It was not that they couldn’t continue fighting

The case was that if they did, they would all have mental breakdowns. William was becoming their worst nightmare!

That mentality would not be beneficial in helping them level up.

It would be best if they could avoid visualizing William as their worst nightmare. They could get revenge another day.

That was how Blood Devil comforted himself.

As for others who said stuff like ‘A man can be destroyed, but not defeated’, they shouldn’t be taken seriously.

There was only hope when one was alive. If you were dead, there was nothing you could do other than bathe in River Styx…

Blood Devil wanted to wait until he reached the Grandmaster level. After his power would undergo a transformation, it would be for sure that he could kill William.

Blood Devil decisively waved his hand and chose to retreat. “I’ll let you go this time. However, the next time you enter the Nightmare Forest, you will die. The Emerald Grand Duchy is not a place anyone can invade!” he shouted.

William looked at Bryan Scarlet Flame, who was deep in thought. His mouth twitched. Blood Devil really had no brains, making Bryan his enemy.

William was a little unhappy upon seeing Blood Devil leave just like that. He stepped forward and asked, “Since when did the Nightmare Forest belong to the Emerald Grand Duchy?’”

“That’s none of your business. It is because I said so!”

William smiled. “You said you wanted to let us go, but I didn’t agree to that. I’ve been standing here all this while. I’m not leaving anytime soon.”

Blood Devil narrowed his eyes. “If the King hadn’t sent me an urgent message via transmission, I would have killed you now.”

“Let’s go.” Blood Devil snorted. He and his comrades turned into vampires, disappearing into the sky.

There were a few reasons why they left so hurriedly.

The part of the Nightmare Forest that they had been fighting at was near the Red Fire Kingdom.

Who knew whether Bryan Scarlet Flame found help? If a Grandmaster or Epic level titled professional came, they would surely be killed and lose the approval of their Demon Father…

Blood Devil and the others were geniuses. Every genius had their own pride. The three of them could not take William down even after a long time passed. William could even see through their antics, which was a heavy blow to them.

Being indecisive was something a sissy did. Running away when they should, was what real men should do.

Not afraid of death? Vampires didn’t stand by that belief.

Revenge was a dish best served cold. The three vampires had great potential, and, in the future, they would definitely get more chances to take revenge.

Blood Devil didn’t believe that William would have such strong companions with him all the time.

Prince William slightly frowned after seeing that the vampires were really leaving.

He depended on the Sword of Hegni to recover. If he could not stab anyone with the sword, his Health Points would not recover fast. Currently, his Health Points were only recovering at 50% of his body’s capacity every second.

This meant that he could regain 300 Health points every second, but this was not enough in this intense situation, not unless he used the Life Potion. However, this sacrifice was a little too big.

“They’re finally gone.” Bryan heaved a sigh of relief. He finally knew how strong William and the others were.

Burned Cinder, Diablo, and Wells all had their own areas of expertise. In some aspects, it could be said that none of them were weaker than him.

But among this group of guys, William Blackleaf impressed him the most.

Previously, Bryan had thought that William was just average in strength and was similar to that of his companions. However, it was apparent that William was much stronger than the others.

Bryan’s admiration for William constantly increased.

Their affinity was slowly growing too.

It had been long since Bryan saw someone stronger than him!

William sensed Bryan’s thoughts and smiled back at him…

“Wow, that look he’s giving me. Is this the feeling of first love?” Bryan shook his head. He was straight, and he had a fiancée who was a princess from the neighboring nation. How could he feel attracted to a guy?

“Is it possible that…” Bryan suddenly scrutinized William. His eyes, his lips, his nose… Bryan couldn’t help but swallow. “He’s cross-dressing?”

“In fact, it is true that some female elves do this as a hobby!” Bryan’s imagination ran wild.

Fortunately, William was not looking at Bryan at this moment and did not know what he was imagining. Otherwise, he would have beaten the crap out of him and caused his butt injury to relapse again.

William was thinking about how to deal with the Dark City in the future.

“Blood Devil and his group must have recognized me, or rather, they know that I have the ‘Blood Essence of the Blood Dragon’ map. Otherwise, it must be because of the ‘Blood Fruit’.” William connected the dots quickly.

In this magical age, many secrets could not remain secrets in front of various peculiar magic.

Previously, when Ottoman Lossa had gone from being a nobody to becoming the Dark City Lord and eventually, the King of vampires, it was not entirely based on his luck. The saying ‘There is more than what meets the eye’ was perfect for his situation.

William did not know that an old fortune-teller lived in Ottoman’s residence.

That old fella was very scheming. Even when Ottoman was killed in the story plot in William’s previous life, that old fella had not shown himself. As a result, William did not know about his existence.

However, one thing was evident now.

His affinity with the Dark City had decreased by 25,000 points, which was way too much if it was because of the ‘Blood Fruit’ battle.

This clearly meant that it was because of the ‘Blood Essence of the Blood Dragon’ map!

However, this also meant something else. When the City of Dawn players would arrive at the Emerald Grand Duchy, it would be inevitable that they would be involved in a conflict with the Dark City, if they entered the Nightmare Forest to kill monsters and whatnot.

Light and Darkness?

Tsk, tsk!

This was really fate.

Nonetheless, there wasn’t a need for William to worry about the players…

He suddenly realized that it was going to take two years before the players came online again…

It was still too early now for him to be worried.

Perhaps when the players came online, he would already have conquered Version 3.0.

Prince William couldn’t help but smile at the thought of that. “Anything can happen in the future. I’m leveling up at a slower speed since the players left, but I know that there are a lot of missions. If I complete them all, I will definitely reach the Grandmaster level within these two years.”

While William was deep in thought, Bryan suddenly walked towards him. He put his hand on William’s shoulder while the latter flinched a little in disgust.

This further affirmed Bryan’s hypothesis.

“Since the Red Fire Kingdom is my territory, it’s time for me to be the host. I’ll take you guys out to eat, drink, and play. We’ll go to the best restaurant in the nation, have the most invigorating bathhouse experience, and go to the brothel with the most beautiful women. Sounds interesting?”

“Ahem…” Wells coughed. He sized up Bryan, who didn’t seem like he could afford it.

After all, he hadn’t even paid the four of them their magical stones for their service!

“12,000 magical stones, huh? I’ll pay you now. When we reach the Red Fire Kingdom, play as much as you want! If you can spend all of my fortunes, so be it!” Bryan recognized that despising look and said angrily.

The moment he spoke, Burned Cinder’s eyes lit up, as did the others. “Don’t go back on your word, let’s go,” they said in unison.

Bryan glanced at William, who didn’t say anything. Just as he wanted to say something, Prince William lightly coughed. “Well, for me, I’m happy if I can fill my tummy. We can eat any food we want?”

“Yes, anything. As long as the Red Fire Kingdom has it, you can have it.” Bryan shamelessly boasted.

William beamed. “That’s great, it’s been long since I had dragon meat!”

“That’s right, especially the meat from a dragon’s heart. I like to eat Fire Dragons.” Burned Cinder licked his lips.

“Earth Dragon, I hereby declare that I want Earth Dragon meat. I haven’t tried that one before.” Wells added on.

Diablo looked at Bryan’s face, which had darkened. “I’m not picky with food, just find 100 pretty girls to spend the night with me…” He patted Bryan’s shoulder as a form of comfort.

“Ahem, are you crazy? Do you want to die?” Bryan’s mouth twitched.

“No, it’s just that my stamina is too good…” Diablo sighed. As a metal element warrior and a mage, he could control the metal element around him, which greatly increased his stamina.

However, what Diablo said instantly dispelled some sick-minded thoughts of Wells and Violent Dragon.

If they went to a brothel with Diablo, they would just look bad as compared to him.

Two days later, the five of them finally arrived at the Red Fire Kingdom. Once they reached a large-scale city, they mounted flying magical beasts. It only took a few hours for them to reach the capital.

This was the first time William and the others had the opportunity to sit on trained flying magical beasts.

The species of magical beasts that human empires and Kingdoms trained were all around the same.

The most expensive and rare species would be combat-type mounts like dragons and phoenixes.

As for flying magical beasts that were used for transportation, the most powerful one would be the Colossal Whale, which belonged to the strategic animal category. They had the ability to fly from birth. They were born in the clouds, devouring various microorganisms and their magical power. Their stomachs could fit more than tens of thousands of people.

A Colossal Whale could exceed 10,000 meters in length. And even though it looked extremely scary, it had a gentle temperament. As long as one didn’t provoke it, the Colossal Whale wouldn’t bother itself with something that looked like a mosquito…

However, if one really invoked their fury, even Great Dragons wouldn’t be a match for them!

The second most powerful would be the ‘Pterosaur’, a gigantic magical beast that had three pairs of wings and measured ten meters across. It could ferry many people on its back, had weak combat power, and could fly at a fast speed.

There were also other species of eagles and birds.

As for griffins?

After they were trained, the ones with lower bloodline potential were treated as a transportation tool while those with higher bloodline potential served as mounts for warriors.

The party of five arrived at the Red Fire Kingdom’s capital.

Bryan didn’t bring them to go and play immediately.

He brought them into the royal palace first to complain to his uncle, the King…
