Lord of the Truth

the four heads appearance was terrifying, to say the least

The area completely froze, everything came to halt for a second...

There are those who look in astonishment trying to think of what had just happened, and those who showed signs of fear, and some of them did not even comprehend what is happening yet, their minds went blank at the sight

"What... what is this?" Prince Henry was the first to react, and this reaction was that he took two steps back, Michael Tinley wasn't really a close friend of his, but he was still one he knew well and spent a lot of time with him, seeing him like that...

Caesar did not answer him but rather focused on scanning the remaining enemies with his eye one last time, before furrowing his eyebrows..

this group was indeed far more powerful than the one he had annihilated earlier.

Especially the five followers of the prince, any one of them can fight against someone at level 11 for a long time, they are elites among the elites!

Also, this time he is already exhausted.. after fighting the previous group in addition to traveling quickly for 5 consecutive hours while fighting beasts, made his energy is on the verge of depleting.

If he wanted to use the same trick again to take all of them down, he would most likely fail.

The best possible scenario is that he wins but two or three of them would escape.

Although they are the ones who attacked him first, and although Caesar is used to behaving as he pleases... he knew very well that leaving witnesses to a massacre among the sons of dukes... especially a prince, was NOT a good idea at all...

"You.. what have you done you bastard? Do you have helpers in hiding here? Speak!!" Prince Henry is losing his temper

"Maybe there are.. maybe not.. would you like to keep attacking me and see for yourself? Listen, I don't want to get involved in the murder of a prince from Dolivar while I'm still on your lands... Take advantage of my limited generosity, take your men and flee from here while you still can," Caesar stated calmly.

The level nine Caesar still stands in front of 18 strong enemies and threatens of killing them, but no one laughed...

and there was no longer a need to ask about the fate of Sheldon's group and his companions either, it became clear what happened to them..

Regardless of them.. even Dali looked frightened although he is on Caesar's side!

"I don't know what's going on here, but you wouldn't succeed in scaring me to escape and you certainly won't succeed in doing that cheap trick again... I will bury you and your helpers here! Protect each other's backs and prepare to take him down!" Prince Henry shouted angrily...

Caesar furrowed his eyebrows... that bastard didn't catch the bait!

There were only a few seconds left for his energy reserves to run out and the flame field to be extinguished, a few seconds left for a massacre of unknown results.

Caesar grabbed his halberd firmly and took a fighting position, Theo and Pion among the trees took up their weapons ready.. this time psychological tricks and assassination will not work, but it will be an open battle 3 against 18

"What's going on here?"

When the atmosphere reached the maximum degree of pressure, a voice came from the east, everyone turned towards the sound and found a group of 13 cultivators coming towards them

"Your Highness Prince Alfred!!" Dali shouted happily when he saw the person at the head of the group, he was the participant Prince of the Black Sun kingdom with members of the other duchies of the kingdom with him!

In a few seconds, Alfred arrived at the scene and quickly surveyed the area, "Dali Julian, Caesar Burton, what's going on? We spotted a huge white fire from nearby so we came to see what's going on, are you guys okay?"

Caesar was also watching the group that had just arrived... They were all injured.

Some of them were seriously injured, almost fatal, but they are still 13!

This is in addition to Dali and his two followers, the total number becomes 16, if they stop the enemy just a little bit, he will easily be able to eliminate them with the help of Theo and Peon!

Caesar mind went in a frenzy trying to think of what to do next,

He had already hinted many times that he killed the other group, so if they walked away and found that they really died he would surely be the primary suspect

But he never truly said he killed them, even as a primary suspect they wouldn't directly punish a guest they invited without evidence to show the world,

And of course, every evidence about the massacre had already become ashes...

forget about the massacre, they had no evidence linking him with even the death of Michael Tinley himself, even though it had happened under their noses!

So letting them go would mostly put him in an awkward situation,

but if he chose to kill a prince here, especially in front of all those *colleagues* from the black sun... that wouldn't be smart.

Thus he finally made up his mind...

At that moment the flame field was deactivated and caesar stepped out under everyone's gaze, "Haha you came on time, Your Highness Alfred, in fact, there was a grudge between me Michael Tinley and we were about to sort it out, but he died mysteriously for some other factors, I think a strong beast attacked him when we weren't looking.

It is very unfortunate, but other than that there's no other problem here... don't you agree with me, Prince Henry?"

Henry was startled when he heard this .. Caesar was clearly giving him a chance to retreat.

He is also well aware of what the coming of this support means, even without them Caesar and those who were helping him in secret were threatening enough!

Dali couldn't hold back his anger when he heard those words, "Caesar! What are you saying? Those bastards were trying to kill-"

"SILENT!" Caesar shouted with absolute force leaving no room for a further reply, Daly didn't know what is happening but he chose to shut up eventually...

Caesar then returned to face the Prince of Dolivar with a smile on his face, "I await your decision, Your Highness."

"Yeah.. we are here because of a personal feud between Caesar and Michael and it's already over now with the unfortunate death of Michael, there's no reason for us to stay here anymore.. let's go!" Henry then jumped towards west, followed by Sato and the rest, they didn't add a word... they were just happy to get out of here alive.

A few seconds passed until Henry and his companions disappeared from view, but it seemed like years...

Only then did Dali fall on the ground gasping, although he did not make any great effort, the suffocating atmosphere alone was enough to scar him for life.

Alfred jumped towards Dali and helped him to stand up. "Are you alright? tell me what was going on here?"

"Those... those bastards were here to kill Caesar and they were talking about killing me with him!!" He at the top of his voice and pointed at Caesar, the one who almost went to hell because of him

"Hmph, I saved your ass from certain death all the way up here but you already started accusing me when something happened that was out of my control, what a brave tiger you are!" Caesar snorted

"you!!"

"Caesar, why were they trying to kill you? Is it because of the personal feud between you and Michael Tinley you were talking about?" Alfred furrowed his eyebrows and approached him

"I'm afraid it's far more than just killing me, Your Highness, but are you sure you want to hear the story while we're standing here?" Caesar nodded in the direction Henry and the rest were moving

Alfred knew what Caesar was trying to say, they were still injured and in the middle of nowhere, if those who left got more back up somehow they would be in a life or death situation, so he nodded"...let's go toward our gate, then we will talk"

when they were about to continue their way, a strong voice echoed in their ears, "The hunting event is over, the participants must stop all kinds of attacks on the beasts and immediately head towards the nearest gate within half an hour at most. Whoever is too late will be eliminated. Whoever attacks any beast after this announcement will be eliminated."

a moment of silence then took place for everyone inside the hunting area.

"That person's voice covered the entire hunting area…."

"Most likely he is at the very top of the Saint realm.. perhaps even a sage?"

"it doesn't matter, let's go!" Prince Henry reminded them again and they all headed for the Gate.
