Oblivious to what Leon had prepared for everyone, Crown Prince Ranon did not take action as early as the rest of the participants.

Instead, he seemed to be leisurely strolling in the forest with his horse while the others were scrambling to find prey.

A mile appeared on his face as if something is about to happen before he moved forward to continue to stroll.

An hour later, five mysterious creatures appeared in the forest, and it was the same as what Eli had encountered when she was kidnapped last time!

In an instant, five distress flares exploded in the sky, signaling grave danger and request for reinforcement.

Back in the assembly area, Emperor Valentin and the remaining elderly leaders from the Green Wave Continent who chose to watch the young ones join the hunting fun were startled.

"What could have happened?" Emperor Valentin stood up from his seat and looked at the direction of the forest.

Leon and his squad were also shocked.

At first they thought that the flares were because of the monsters they released. But who would have known that the beasts were the same troublesome ones that made Eli and Leon struggle to take down!

In the spur of the moment the exciting hunting grounds became a field of chaos. The ground trembled and the birds fled in panic along with the men that were in the forest.

Leon's face darkened, true enough, the enemy had its own plans.

Without delaying any further, he summoned magic and hovered on top of the vast forest, carefully observing the situation.

With his sharp eyes, he saw the situation immediately.

Five mysterious creatures scattered around the hunting area, jeopardizing the safety of his people and the foreign delegates.

At his vantage point, he saw that Kazimir and Antoine were already at the places where the beast appeared, which means he had to look after the other three.

Immediately he flew to the nearest one to effectively deal with it. Going all out, his figure shot up in the skies in the fastest time possible.

"Look! It's the Third Prince!" The people observing the situation below also caught sight of him rushing to the places where the flares were triggered.

Only then did Emperor Valentin and the Green Wave Leaders calm their hearts down.  They watched as Leon dashed in the direction of one of the flares in the sky.

Boom!

Seeing the first target, Leon decided to immediately engage and land on top of the gruesome creature's massive body.

"Aroooooo!!" The creature growled in agony upon being smashed on the ground. In response, it opened its mouth to cast a spell on the knights who happened to be the ones to send a distress call.

"Get away! It can cast a spell!" Leon shouted at the top of his lungs, he used his commanding tone and deliberately used mana to amplify his voice so that everyone on the hunting grounds could hear his warning.

His men were in the scene but only he and Eli and some select few from their circle knew about the abilities of these mysterious creatures. He had no time to inform them of the things that might have caught the people off guard and so he employed this method of informing everyone.

Fortunately, most of the men in trouble managed to hear his voice at a distance, especially on Kazimir and Antoine's side. This made them stay alert, not letting their guard down even if they managed to pin the monster down.

Crown Prince Ranon also heard Leon's voice but did not care at all. He knew that Leon would know how to deal with Arabella's monster puppets and so he was not surprised at all.

Instead, he continued his act and valiantly rushed to one of the directions where the puppet sprouted. He wanted to use this opportunity to blend with the crowd and appear to have defeated the monster.

It's a race against time.

He had to defeat more than one of these monsters and 'offer' it to the Emperor to snag the win.

While he did not have to exert effort to fight the creatures and could just easily signal Arabella to cut off the connection between her and the puppets, he knew that the Emperor and the Green Wave's men were observing him.

He had to put on a show.

As such he raised his sword and charged with his horse to valiantly come to the rescue of one of the groups who sent the distress call.

Along with his men, they appeared to struggle in a fight, but he was obviously shining on the battlefield as their leader. Even the knights from the Seirende noble families could not help but subconsciously move under his command and help his party to successfully defeat the mysterious monster.

After such a heavy half-hour fight, the creature's lifeless body dropped to the ground. Seeing the creature finally dead, the man's exhausted body dropped to the ground, and panted with gratitude on their face.

They looked at the Crown Prince of the Vanderford Empire, who, while also seemingly tired as them, still remained steadfast and valiant, insisting to stand while ensuring that the beast was really dealt with.

After receiving confirmation from his men, he dragged his battle-worn body, appearing to mount his horse once again.

"Your Highness Crown Prince, where are you heading to?" The men asked respectfully.

"You men stay here and replenish your energy, there's still people who are in trouble. I have to check if they are alright too." He answered while he fixed his saddle to mount on his horse.

"But Your Highness, you have exhausted a lot of mana earlier… We're afraid that you would be too exhausted!" They appealed, clearly worrying that their benefactor and lifesaver will end up dead from his desire to rescue people.

"No can do… What if those people could no longer hold on? A little helping hand might save a life…" Crown Prince Ranon said in conviction.

Lighting up the fire through his words, the men also got up and dragged their exhausted bodies, "Then, will follow the suit and lend a helping hand!"

At that moment, they were moved by the prince's character, though there was an innate enmity towards the Vanderfords as the rival empire, in times of chaos, they saw that he was someone who did not put on the airs of his status.

The stronger men accompanied him with the other men who were left behind to control the situation and tend to the injured.

Their original position happened to be a place that was far from the assembly area and so, the next place they were heading to was the farthest.

Thus, that place must have not yet been attended to by reinforcements.

When they were about to arrive in the area, they started to hear the sounds of a rough battle ahead. They looked surprised because, from the looks of it, there were many men in the area.

'They were still standing and surviving?'

The men around were baffled, they had just won the battle with great difficulty and without the leadership of the Crown Prince of Vanderford Empire, they would have been dead in just a matter of minutes.

But these men were still alive and holding off well, from the way that it sounds, they seemed to be also organized in their attacks.

Unbeknownst to them, the men who were facing the creatures right now were the Roaming Blades who were stationed at hunting grounds and they were holding pretty well against the ferocious monster puppet.

While they were not as experienced in fighting as the Crimson Blades, they were still equipped with exemplary survival and combat skills to protect themselves when carrying out their spying missions.

On the other hand, despite seeing the confusion and surprise in the men around him, Crown Prince Ranon did not change his expression and only said, "We must rush fast to help them…"

The men nodded and increased the phase.

When they arrived at the scene they immediately unsheathed their swords and prepared to join the fight.

However, just as the Crown Prince and his men were about to enter the battlefield, cold shivers ran on their spine.

One second was enough for them to feel that there was a strong presence coming from the direction behind them.

Yeeeeehhhhurrr!

The horses also felt unease and refused to advance forward. Someone with an overwhelming bloodthirst and killing intent was about to approach where they were!

BOOOOOM!

Suddenly, a shadow figure flashed overhead and landed on the creature's body. Causing the entire ground to shake and fill the air with rubble.

When the dust cleared a figure appeared before their eyes standing on top of the now struggling puppet creature. The moment they realized who it was, another wave of goosebumps rushed down their entire body.

They saw Leon, the Third Prince of the Empire.

Bathed with purple blood, his eyes extremely cold with an aura that could kill upon first movements.

In his hand was one…

no three massive heads of the monster puppets!

Leon looked around and saw the ever-calm Crown Prince Ranon. He did not bother and suddenly turned to the creature that was struggling on his feet.

He stretched out his free hand and casually touched the puppet's head.

CRACK!!!!

Very casually, he twisted the creature's neck and separated its head from its body, like he was casually picking up a fruit from a tree!
