"Oh em gee! How long do we need to wait for the princes? I am bored. I want to go home with Max." Erella murmured feeling bored. She was already standing for fifteen minutes near the banquet table alone.   Earlier, she wanted to relax outside the balcony but all the balconies in the hall were occupied by the young ladies so she ended up standing near the banquet table. She tried to look for someone to talk to while waiting for the two princes but the noble young ladies were avoiding her and the commoners were too scared to approach her because she's a noble.   "Dang! If I know this is what happens to me, I should pretend I am sick and just stay with Max in the estate." Erella murmured again. Then she looked at the table full of delicious snacks. She didn't plan to eat at the ball because she was afraid she couldn't control herself to eat more and her dress will burst out, just like what she was doing in the Von Heinlein estate. But because o

His majesty and her majesty walked towards their royal seat first before the two princes followed them to their royal seats too. Upon sitting on their royal seat, Prince Maverick checked the young ladies in the hall right away, especially the ten-year-old young ladies with blonde hair. His eyes were busy looking for the little angel he saw in the forest but he couldn't find her. He also told the attendant to look for the girl he described. But even the attendant couldn't find the girl he was looking for. 'Maybe she didn't go because she has no finances to buy for her dress and to pay for her carriage to come here.' Maverick thought-feeling disappointed. All of a sudden, he lost interest in the ball so when the steward of the palace announces the names of the ladies in front of them, his mind was somewhere off thinking how on Earth he will find the little girl in the forest. He just came to his senses when his father the majesty called his attention in a soft voi

"So they don't want to hide anymore," Erella said with a serious face. She already felt them when their carriage was going back to Von Heinlein Duchy even though they were trying to hide their presence. But she just ignored them because they are not doing anything to them. Max's eyebrows were knitted together when he heard what Erella said.   'What? They don't want to hide anymore? Does it mean they were already following us from the beginning?' Max thought, feeling disappointed in himself because he didn't feel their presence.   'Damnit! I need to train hard more so I can protect Erella!' He murmured.   Max suddenly became vigilant when he felt a great deal of ominous mana outside their carriage. Then all of a sudden, Max held Erella in his arms and flew out of the carriage. When Max landed his feet on the ground the carriage was suddenly cut in half. A big bat monster threw a wind attack on their carriage and it cut in

A cloud of dust and a tremor could be seen and felt after Jubatus pummeled Erella into the ground.   "Ekekekekek! How arrogant you were earlier, but now in front of me you are just a powerless little brat! Ekekekekke!" Jubatus exclaimed proudly.     Everyone was shocked by what happened, especially Max. Looking at the giant mallet that Jubatus was holding and the deep hole that it made when Erella was pummeled into it, made Max freeze in his place and was unable to fight the remaining bugbears. He could tell that Erella's body could not withstand the impact of the giant mallet that hit her because her power at the moment was just below the average of the wizards. So she could not put a strong spell on her to shield her from that giant mallet. Then he thought an unimaginable thing happened to Erella. His heart tightened that it feels he couldn't breathe.      "E---Erella..No, no, no, please

THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!   Jubatus's heartbeat thumped abnormally after drinking the strengthening potion. It seemed like with every thump of his heart, his soul was escaping from him. Then he felt a sudden pain in his chest.     "ARGHHHHHHHH!" Jubatus screamed in pain while holding his chest. Then fell hard on the ground that it made a big hole where he fell. Then he felt all his veins all over his body were wide open and his blood rush in the center of his heart. He kept on rolling and bending his body just to make it feel at ease. But still, it didn't work. It took five minutes before his body calmed down. And when it calmed down, his mouth let out a purple smoke. His normal size body went bulky and he felt he became ten times stronger than before. Then he stood up as if nothing happened to his body five minutes ago.   "Hmmmmm." He muttered while checking his entire body. While checking his body, he kept on n
