Village Head's Debauchery

Instantly, Seth’s body surged with incredible strength as the immense Vylkr energy from all three containers filled his veins, bones, and tissues, slowly advancing throughout his entire being.

Tightening his grip on the cutlass, Seth disappeared from his spot.

There was no sound or extravagant movement, only a slight breeze that briefly tilted the grass where he once stood in a specific direction.

Orion couldn’t help but widen his eyes as he witnessed the astonishing speed that Seth had just displayed. He knew three-star warriors were strong, but this… was just ridiculous.

He knew that Seth didn’t possess a gift that would let him vanish into thin air, as he already knew what it was. As such, he could only come up with one conclusion: Seth had just moved at a speed that was too difficult for him to see.

“That’s why I worried about your decision and Seth’s plan. The gap between a one-star warrior and a three-star warrior is too wide. If you both had faced each other without holding back, it wouldn’t even be called a fight,” Fifi said, taking note of Orion’s slightly dazed expression.

“Come on, we need to rescue that woman,” she added, snapping Orion out of his daze before she immediately surged forward with Orion beside her.

Meanwhile, when Seth reappeared—

BAANGG!

The reverberating sound of Seth’s sword impacting against White Flame’s flickering body was like a giant angrily stomping its foot against the earth.

Seth sent White Flame flying backwards several meters due to the collision of the impact. His body tumbled, performing two three-hundred-and-sixty-degree spins before he landed on the ground with a resounding, “BOOOM!!” rolling a few more times on the grassy soil, upturning some parts of the earth due to the impact of his landing before coming to a sudden stop.

The grassy plain field became silent.

Even the grasses that rustled slowly came to a standstill.

Seth couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow as he witnessed the humanoid White Flame slowly get back up to his feet.

“Although you’re not that strong, it seems that you possess an exceptionally tough shell,” Seth said as he disappeared from his spot once more, leaving only a gust of wind behind, and instantly reappeared right before him.

His cutlass came down as it collided with White Flame’s body once more.

“BAANGG!”

The resounding sound broke through the air, sending shockwaves flying in all four directions as White Flame was forcefully flung backwards again.

On the side, Iris and the others, each of whom had suffered several injuries, from broken bones to crushed organs, and were still clutching their weapons tightly, preparing to fight to the death against White Flame, could only stare blankly with their eyes wide open as their very cores shook like drums.

Of course, they were not shocked that someone had managed to knock back White Flame, as they had done so several times already, but it wasn’t to this level.

Also, they recognized the faces of all who had participated and had succeeded in obtaining ‘Divine blood.’ They could all swear that they didn’t recognize anybody like the man, putting on a strange attire, who had just forcefully knocked back White Flame.

Who is he?

How strong is he? Where did he come from?

Their minds raced with various questions as they wondered why they had not noticed his presence until now.

As they scrutinized him from head to toe, Iris’s eyes lingered on his hair as a figure sprang out within her mind.

“Iris,” hearing her name ringing within her ears, her eyes widened before she immediately snapped them shut.

Great, now she’s hearing his voice also.

“Iris, are you alright?” the voice sounded again, accompanied by the soft touch of something pressing against her armoured shoulder.

Wait a minute!

Iris’s eyes snapped open. She instantly turned her head to the side, and her eyes landed on Orion’s figure.

“M-Mr. Orion!” Iris blurted out.

Her eyes scanned Orion from head to toe, scrutinizing his whole figure to ensure he was the one.

“You’re… alive,” she said, seeing that it was indeed him and that she wasn’t seeing things.

“Yes, it’s me,” Orion nodded with a smile.

“Come on, we have to get you out of here,” he quickly added, seeing as Seth and White Flame were about to engage in battle again.

Since he understood what kind of being they were dealing with, Orion didn’t want to take any chances even though Seth seemed to have the upper hand and was about to send White Flame plummeting into the ground again. The fact that he still couldn’t inflict any injury on White Flame worried him.

“No, I’m not leaving,” Iris shook her head in response, saying firmly, “There are others still alive but incapable of fighting, so you can go ahead and rescue them. I am not leaving until I ensure that White Flame is dead and free the Prismerion race from this curse.”

Only after she finished speaking did Iris notice someone, an extremely tall woman, standing beside Orion. Just by looking at her muscular physique, she didn’t need to be told that she possessed an explosive amount of strength.

Even her trained instincts were currently screaming at her just from her presence.

Iris glanced from the unknown woman to the man who was singlehandedly taking care of White Flame, taking in their strange attires before she finally settled her gaze on Orion, realizing that these two individuals might have come from the same place as him.

A mouthful of saliva went down Iris’s throat as she pondered this.

‘Then, there must be more of them,’ Iris thought, contemplating how their earlier guess about Orion’s place having even more powerful individuals than he was might be accurate.

Orion furrowed his brows at Iris’s words. Scanning the surroundings again, he noticed several figures focusing their attention on him, all still clutching their weapons tightly, even as Seth handled White Flame alone.

“BOOOMMM!!” BANNGGG!!”

A deafening sound exploded in the distance, diverting their attention toward the source, only to witness Seth flying backwards at an extreme speed before colliding on the ground with a “BANG!”
