A Demon's Journey

Edwin was completely speechless as the man's soul exploded.

'How did this happen?! I had already sealed his ability to control his Ardor, so how could he explode his soul?'

'A strange human this was….'

Edwin thought as he stared at the man's body.

He then focused on the other warriors who were attacking him from a distance.

They were trying to break the barrier Edwin had created and were more or less succeeding in damaging that barrier. After all, there were eight of them.

"Azure Flame Dragon Jaws!"

Blue Flames were conjured around Edwin's body. These flames were created using his Humane Ardor.

Although the destructive power of these flames couldn't be compared to his Hell Flames or his Heavenly Flames, it was still more than these warriors could handle.

These warriors didn't possess any special bloodline that could deal with these flames. Also, Edwin had used enforced it with a great deal of his Ardor.

The flames soon swirled around Edwin's body and took the shape of a Dragon's Head.

The barrier around Edwin's soon shattered, and the attacks were going to hit him.

The Flame Dragon's Head immediately opened its mouth and spewed out pure Azure Flames.

There were various elemental attacks on one side, while on the other, pure Azure Flames opposed them.

These elemental attacks didn't resist the Azure Flames for a single second.

It wasn't just that their Ardor was weaker than Edwin. In reality, their numbers would have easily covered up that fact.

Their attacks couldn't stand a chance against those Azure Flames since instead of combining their entire power and fighting the Azure Flames, the different elements lowered the power of the elements on their side.

In layman terms, their coordination was extremely bad.

Edwin flew towards the room where Bernado and Bianca were seated.

Since the room was completely soundproof, Bernado had no idea what was going on. The drug hadn't even begun to work on Bianca yet.

It would take another 15 minutes for it to begin working.

The warriors noticed Edwin was moving towards the Third Prince's location. They concluded that he wanted to take the Third Prince as his hostage.

It made sense to them since they felt it would be one way for this individual to get out of this difficult predicament.

The Third Prince was merely at the 4 Star Rank. It would be extremely easy for Edwin to kill him.

They immediately tried to move towards Edwin, but suddenly, a wall of Azure Flames was raised! This Azure Flame Wall was rather thick. By the time a warrior could reach the other side, he would be ashes. At the least, none of the warriors here possessed the capability to go to the other side.

The Flame Dragon was the one who created this Flame Wall! Edwin established a connection between the Flame Dragon's spirit and his own. Through this link, he could swiftly give it with power.

Also, this dragon contained a faint spirit that allowed it to operate without Edwin's intervention.

The Azure Flame Dragon soon flew towards its opponents. Edwin's order for this Azure Flame Dragon had been to destroy these warriors.

As the Azure Flame Dragon's head moved, it spouted flames towards these warriors.

The warriors were now more than aware of how dangerous those flames were. They immediately moved aside to dodge those flames.

They tossed aside any thoughts of preparing for an attack as they first had to preserve their lives!

The Azure Flame Dragon Head was flying towards them as it prevented them from regrouping by launching Azure Flames at them.

Around this time, Edwin had already broken the window and entered the room where Bernado and Bianca were seated.

The two were peacefully drinking tea.

Once the window broke, the soundproof array collapsed immediately. The one condition of this array was that it would only work in a closed room.

Now that this room had collapsed, it was only natural for it to malfunction and stop working.

Bernado was shocked to hear someone breaking the window and entering through it.

He looked in Edwin's direction and saw Edwin flying towards him. There was an emotionless look on Edwin's face, but when Bernado stared at him, he couldn't help but experience great fear.

'He…He is a 5 Star Warrior?!'

However, Bernado did have a prince's prestige in him. He showed a calm expression and asked Edwin, "Who are you?!"

Edwin didn't reply and slowly stood on the floor of the room. He began to move towards Bernado while observing him carefully.

More precisely, he was observing his spirit through spiritual senses.

His Mystic Eyes of Perception wouldn't work on Bernado for some unexplainable reason. As a result, he had to go back to the basics and use Spiritual Sense to figure out how Bernado's Spiritual Energy was responding.

Currently, it was behaving normally.

"Guards! Come and take care of this man!" Bernado shouted out with all his might.

Bianca remained seated in her place as she stared at Edwin blankly. She was awaiting further orders from him.

Bianca's maid rushed towards the room and entered it quickly. Bernado's four guards in the mansion were rushing towards this room as well.

When Bianca's maid entered the room, she was shocked to see Edwin standing ahead of Bernado.

She began to wonder how did Edwin know that they were here? Why didn't she sense him pursuing them? Was he an enemy?

At this moment, Bianca suddenly spoke out, "Stand down, Miku. He isn't our enemy."

When Bernado heard that statement, he was startled before he understood something. He glared at Bianca and spat out, "You bitch! You planned to murder me?!"

"Who are you to act so righteously when you planned to rape me?" Bianca glared at Bernado.

"Hoh…So you knew about that. Yet, you drunk the tea." Bernado stared at her with a mocking look on his face.

Edwin felt as though he had observed enough. This man's spirit was absolutely normal.

'Time to kill him!'

Just as Edwin thought of this, he sensed a quick and strong attack heading his way. It was a sound-based attack…

He turned towards the direction of the door and immediately raised his hands to block it.

"Echo Bullets!"

Multiple bullets containing sound energy were shot at Edwin. Edwin felt his body being struck by those sound wave attacks.

These Echo Bullets were unexpectedly rather strong. They managed to push Edwin back by a couple of steps.

It was to be expected. The sound attacks could be considered to be a completely different category of attacks from the standard.

The power of these attacks depended on the person's skill, his Ardor's power, and most importantly, his weapon and how loud it could be.

Currently, the man ahead of Edwin was using a flute through which he shot out Echo Bullets at Edwin. Moreover, an enchantment on that flute amplified the loudness in those echo bullets to a great degree.

Other spiritual weapons could amplify an element similar to this method. But… The amplification the sound attacks received was too great with the lowest cost.

Edwin didn't want to be on the receiving ends of this attack. Blue lightning flickered around Edwin's body a second later as he thought 'Electric Field.'
