BXBX NOVEL Chapter 465 The Hunting Activity (3)
"That makes four…" Leon coldly mumbled not suppressing the blood lust and the killing intent that was leaking all over his body.
The roaming blades around blended through the crowd to resist fawning over his admirable display of abilities. But in their hearts, they were cheering for him and praising him to the highest.
Meanwhile, the rest were scared witless and finally remembered who Leon was before he became the most adored Prince six months ago.
He is the Barbaric Blood Prince, the Mad Dog of the Seirende Empire!
The men who were filled with valiant energy a while ago felt weak on their knees. Fortunately, they were on their horses, so they only have to do their best not to let go of their swords which stayed frozen from the last position.
This was the very first time they saw Leon act as he did on the battlefield. Before, they only knew he was terrifying on the battlefield. But now, they knew to this extent what his moniker really meant.
Hell, they did not dare to imagine having to face him on the battlefield! Ever!
Crown Prince Ranon on the other hand, looked quite shocked, but his eyes looked much calmer as if he had already known that Leon would turn out like this on the battlefield.
The only thing he did not anticipate was that Leon would easily kill off the puppets while he was playing soldier. He never thought that this maniacal guy would go all out upon the sight of the prize.
He had always thought that the princes of the Seirende Empire would not take interest in the prize, especially Leon who was most likely the candidate for the crown prince position because of his undeniable strength compared to the other two.
\'It seems like this man does not want any outsiders to get the things that only their empire can have…\' Crown Prince Ranon concluded in his heart.
He looked at Leon with a flash of interest. "Looks like we are looking at the winner of the hunt.."
Leon remained cold and expressionless as the grime and purple blood dripped on his red blood hair. He only had his crystal blue eyes looking at Crown Prince Ranon and the men.
With a monotonous and frigid tone, he said, "Apologies gentlemen but the hunt is effectively postponed due to the appearance of these creatures.
As you know these weren\'t normal creatures and we believe that an enemy from the curse users is the culprit in this matter.
And so we sincerely apologize and would like to ask you to go back to the Assembly area for a quick check-up and questioning. His Majesty Emperor has also prepared compensation for this untoward matter."
Right after telling his announcement, he bade them goodbye and disappeared deep into the forest, leaving the people dumbfounded and confused.
But as if in the queue, several knights on horses came to take a look at their injuries and assist them back to the assembly area.
When they arrived at the assembly area, they were surprised that the Anti Curse Committee\'s staff were already stationed there and gave each man a cure potion and a thorough checkup to ensure that none of them were injured by the curse powers in many ways.
It was not only the Crown Prince\'s party and the Green Wave Institute who were surprised by this scene, but also the aristocratic men in the empire. This fast response and careful management of the aftermath were beyond their expectations.
They looked at the Anti-curse committee staff and were in awe for moving so systematically and rationally.
The committee has not existed for an entire year, but each and every member of their staff seemed to have been trained for a lot of years.
Only the core members of the committee knew that this was all thanks to Eli\'s idea. She actually got these concepts from the different organizations in the modern world on how to respond to disasters like fire, earthquake, and so on, only that they deal with curse-related events.
They recruited their staff members and all of them had to go through the training which was developed by the core members themselves with Eli\'s guidance. Its concept was like first aid, search and rescue training.
Seeing how they moved today, the Emperor was equally pleased, his future daughter-in-law\'s ideas were really out of this world. And they were all beyond effective!
Too bad, the Vanderford and the Green Wave manage to see how they work, or else Emperor Valentin would want them to become a secret function that would become their lifeline during the war with the curse users.
Nevertheless, this may also become a blessing in disguise as it was also declaring to the enemies lurking behind that his empire is always ready.
Unbeknownst to him, his thoughts were somehow true. Because Crown Prince Ranon seemed to have been caught off guard by this matter.
If the response were this fast and the Emperor was still at the tent, leisurely drinking his tea with the elders of the Green Wave Institute, what other things would he be hiding under his sleeves?
He remembered all the obstacles he went through just to enter the Empire\'s borders. Then all the thinking and brainstorming with Arabella and Nikolai on how to smuggle their items and hide their powers inside.
D*mn this Empire is really troublesome!
He could not wait for the day that they were free to move and attack this empire.
But the most important thing for them now was to take away the prisoners outside the borders. Only then will their plan move forward!
Soon the men who were at the hunting site were all accounted for, it is to everyone\'s relief that none of the people in the area were severely injured and all of them were alive.
This is also thanks to Leon\'s overwhelming speed in handling the creatures.
As the Emperor did not want them to stay in the forest when something like this happened, he arranged for them to be escorted back to the capital.
Moreover, to \'comfort\' the envoys and the foreign delegates who were caught in this matter, the Emperor had to fork out medium-grade cure potions to appease them. He also set up a banquet to let them forget about the traumatic experience.
Crown Prince Ranon did not decline the offer even though he is an envoy of the Main Temple. After all, he is still the Crown Prince of the Vanderford Empire, the future Emperor of that land. It is only proper that he was at least treated as such.
Besides, he will have to officially assume the role of an Envoy tomorrow as the visitation of the Prisoners will take place.
On the way back, Crown Prince Ranon heard a voice in his head, "Well that is quite a failed plan, don\'t you think?"
The voice had a mocking tone yet it did not irritate the Crown Prince at the slightest.
Instead, he answered through his mind, "Treat it as testing the waters, after all revealing our cards at this moment is not our goal today…"
"Once we lure them out, then they will finally see hell… it will be best if the three princes will go out at once…
We\'ll cut off the Seirende\'s descendants and not spare anyone of them until they disappear in the face of Prasinos!!"
Crown Prince Ranon\'s eyes flashed with greed as he visualized the Seirende Empire\'s end in his mind.
Then a thought came into him and said once again, "Keep an eye on the Third Prince for me... he is getting suspicious and I don\'t like the way he looks at me..."
