The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

In this situation, it would usually be too late even if Davey swung his [Aura] or [Aura Blade]. However…

-It can slash everything, even things that don’t exist in the physical world.

The thing was, Davey still had a way of catching Lington, who had planned to escape by running past the second dimension.

Slice!! With an eerie sound of skin being sliced, the mana that was being emitted powerfully stopped at once. Then, Count Lington felt a strange touch on his skin; his eyes widened in shock as he saw the shining blade on his neck.

“How is this…”

“You want to know? It’ll cost 500 gold coins.”

Splatter!! Hot, red blood splashed all across the control room.

35. I’ve Always Wanted to Try This

Clop clop clop clop clop!!! About two hundred cavalries quickly ran past Ordem Territory’s gates and entered the territory.

“Your Highness! There are bodies!”

“Damn it! What happened in the meantime… Baron Gorneo!!!” The boy who was leading the calvaries took off his armor and shouted urgently. The boy was Baris, the actual seigneur of the Ordem Territory, Winley’s twin brother, and Davey’s younger brother. His return was much later than expected. He shouted again, “Search the place! The First and Third Order, hurry and take Count Lington and Count Colio into custody! Don’t overdo it, and back away if they resist! Second Order, search for Baron Gorneo! All the others, protect the residents!”

“Yes!!”

“Remember! We are not fighting to the death! Rescue as many as you can!”

After the knights gave an affirmative and scattered, Baris quickly got on his horse and rode fast.

Most of the residents had stopped working and were taken to a quarantine facility after the outbreak of this disease. As such, the territory’s former liveliness had disappeared in a few days, and it was now just filled with desolation.

‘What happened?’ Baris could tell that someone had slaughtered the Knights of Destruction from the blood stains and the bodies that were everywhere. ‘Did Baron Gorneo’s and Lington’s knights fight because Lington did something while I was gone?’

Baris, who was ruffling his hair in irritation from the complicated situation, could see more bodies as he rode further into the territory. When he arrived at the treatment center with a pale face, he widened his eyes in shock at the pile of corpses in front of the center. “Th—They’re all part of the Knights of Destruction?!”

It wasn’t just one or two bodies, but dozens of them. There were enough corpses to assume that all of the Knights of Destruction in the territory had died.

Without hesitation, Baris entered the treatment center as if he was possessed by something. Even though there was an air-borne disease running rampant, it didn’t seem to be a big deal to him. When he entered the center, he could see Baron Gorneo quietly treating patients as if the outside situation didn’t matter. “Baron Gorneo!”

“Hm? Oh! Your Highness, have you returned?”

Baris’ eye twitched at Gorneo’s peaceful tone of voice. He said, “Yes, we searched the barbarians’ base and found evidence, just like you said we would. I understand that we sent a messenger pigeon, but what happened?” Baris was full of questions about the current situation and the pile of dead knights outside.

Baron Gorneo had joined the territory’s coalition later than the other people. Because of the territory’s terrible state, Baris had transferred most of the coalition’s rights and had just been waiting anxiously. However, after Baron Gorneo had arrived at the territory, he had heard something from Baron Gorneo that was hard to believe: someone could’ve intentionally spread this disease because of Count Lington’s trickery.

Baris had left the territory with an excuse that he was leaving to prevent exposure to the disease. Winley, who was the only family he had to protect, had left the territory. He had felt a sense of relief that she wouldn’t return until after his return. Then, he had found a few potion bottles with the coalition’s symbol buried in the ground after searching for a few days. He had come right back after finding them, so he didn’t understand the situation right now, since he hadn’t been away for too long.

Trying his best to soothe his overwhelming surprise, Baris asked out of frustration, “What… What happened here?”

“Prince Davey came,” Baron Gorneo replied.

“Big Brother?!”

“And he developed a cure as if it was nothing.”

“…” Baris’ eyes widened at the surprising news.

“Yes, to be honest, I was completely astonished as well. The doctors of the coalition couldn’t discover anything about this disease, even though they have studied it for years; however, His Highness figured out the disease in just three days.”

“Then, what about the bodies of the knights…”

“That’s where the problem began. It seemed that Count Lington had something else in mind, and he planned to kill us all with his knights.”

“Wh—What about Big brother?! Then, what happened to Winley?!”

Baron Gorneo answered calmly, “Now now, calm down. It’s nothing to be worried ab…”

“Nothing to be worried about?! The cure for the disease is important, but Big Brother and Winley are more important to me! What happened to Big Brother?! And what about Winley?!”

“Your Highness…”

“They are safe, right? Tell me!! If something has happened to the two… Especially if anything happened to that fool of a Winley, who blindly trusts people!!” Baris shouted angrily as a question sounded behind him.

“If something happened?”

“I will get my revenge, even if it means going to war with the Empire…” Baris, who was shouting in anger with bloodshot eyes, stopped for a moment. Then, he turned his head awkwardly. It was as if he was a broken robot.

“Hm… It seems that Prince Baris cares for you, Lady Winley, much more than you have said.” Yulis remarked.

“Hey… Why aren’t you acting like your usual self…”

Silence filled the treatment center.

* * *

Lington froze up, his eyes still wide open in shock. He didn’t know how he had been slashed or how the magic, which had already been activated, had been canceled. His gaze was fixed on Davey with sorrow and confusion, but Davey had no obligation to tell the dead of Blue Ribbon’s OP abilities.

-He became a gruesome body in the end.

“He should’ve thought about this before doing something so inhumane. Anyway, I didn’t want to kill him this easily.”

Davey found six liquid-filled bottles while searching through Lington’s tattered up and limp body. They were the cure for the ‘Melting Acceleration Virus’ that he had made in the past three days. The only people who knew how to make this were himself and Baron Gorneo. It seemed like Lington had kept all the samples, since he didn’t know what the medicine was exactly made of. After all, this particular cure was worth quite a high value right now.

-What are you going to do with this place?

“We should destroy it a…”

Boom!!!

It seemed that there was no need for that.

-What is this?!

Davey pulled out [Aura Blade] with Red Ribbon when he suddenly saw the buildings shaking. Then, he cut through the ceiling without hesitation and shot up. “Just destroy all of it. There’s no need to clean them up one by one.”

It was just as Davey said; it seemed like Lington had planned to blow this place up before he left to destroy all the evidence. And as Lington had intended, the explosions came from the basement and were blowing up the place to leave absolutely no trace.

-Davey, look.

Davey heard Perserque’s voice from his shoulder as he was dodging the falling pieces and jumping off of them. He asked, “What is that?”

-Chimera

Davey’s face was filled with shock as Perserque mumbled. He instantly recognized what it was. ‘I guess the dark mage was here.’

Half of the chimeras were being killed by the splintering building. The only ones who could escape were those with the ability to fly and the larger size.

Grrr!!

Roar!!

The chimeras’ small number multiplied in seconds to become hundreds, and they all simultaneously began heading in one direction.

-The Ordem Territory!

Instantly realizing where the chimeras were going, Perserque shouted with big blinking eyes.

Davey immediately stopped the strange-looking chimera that was closest to him. The chimeras were large monsters that were about four to five meters tall. They had muscles similar to ogres, a skin color similar to trolls, and their strange appearance made it difficult to think that they were living things.

-Their heads and body parts are all over the place.

The chimeras had their heads attached to their chests and their eyes to their shoulders. Aside from that, they had mouths all over their bodies. Their appearance was so horrendous that anyone with a weak stomach would vomit.

Roar!!!

The monster rushed straight toward Davey upon discovering his presence. It roared, warning him to get out of its way.

“It’s fast, and it’s pretty strong, too.”

Boom!! Davey instantly charged at the monster and crushed what seemed to be its head, then flattened the rest of its body. The monster wasn’t completely destroyed, but it still fell to the ground from the fatal blow. However, Davey’s expression wasn’t at all pleased.

“It’s tough. Was its performance extremely maximized by shortening its lifespan?”

-If they were used in a short war…

“Some of them could’ve already gotten in their hands.”

To be honest, it wasn’t any of Davey’s concern if there wasn’t any direct relation; however, the monsters that had shown up and had spread all over the place were all heading to the Ordem Territory, using the forest to shield them. He sighed. “Ah… It’s going to be difficult to catch every single one of them in this large forest.”

-Why don’t you just quickly return and defend the territory?

There were some chimeras that breathed fireballs like Wyverns. And there would be a substantial level of damage if Davey just left them alone.

Davey didn’t think about this for long. As he looked up at the sky, he saw that it was filled with heavy, dark clouds. “Humidity is good.” A light spark popped as he reached his hand out into the air and stimulated his mana. “Let’s go with this.”

If there was no way to stop the chimeras, Davey was going to create his own way to do so; he needed to keep his promise.

[5th Circle]

[Fly]

This magic cost a lot of mana, but Davey still used it. As he lightly stimulated his mana and released it, he floated up in the air by an invisible force. At the same time, he pulled out Red Ribbon and slid his fingers down the blade. “Okay, Red Ribbon. Sorry, but I’m going to have to borrow your mana.”

It was commonly known that a mere 5th circle mage could not cast large-scale magic. However, Davey’s mana was around the level of a 5th circle mage, and Red Ribbon’s mana was at the 7th circle. It was possible for him to summon what was already in existence.

Davey quickly flew past the chimeras and stopped them in their tracks. Then, he floated Red Ribbon up in the air and clapped his hands together.
