Chapter 317: Red Prince
Charles stood in front of a lava pool with his arms crossed and stared at a particular area.
At that moment, a humanoid figure crawled out of the lava pool and tried its best to stand up.
The sheets of skin sloughed off the body, the blackened chunks of flesh hit the ground and continued to smolder.
Blood bubbled and steamed as it spills out from the wounds.
It was a gruesome sight.
The figure was none other than Saron!
Her eyes, mouth, nose, and other areas appeared utterly charred.
Even though she seemed to be on the verge of death, she continued to stand up and utter words in an unknown language.
"You still haven\'t given up?" Charles spoke coldly and arrived in front of her.
Blood continued to spill out of her orifices and painted her charred body in red color.
Finally, she stopped muttering, turned her face towards Charles, and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"D-Death is just a temporary for Devils, Charles. I\'ll be reborn in the Hell Plane and rise again."
Meanwhile, the Holem\'s Crown also let out a dim light and spoke.
"Finish her off, lad. Whether she is a Devil\'s reincarnation or a soul with tampered memories, nothing changes. Even if her soul returns to the Hell Plane, most of her memories will be wiped out by the Blood River."
Charles nodded his head, raised his flame sword, and slashed at her neck.
The next instant, Saron\'s head cleaved off from the body, rolled on the ember-filled ground, and soon fell into the lava pool.
As her mouth let out a shrill scream, lava liquid entered inside and completely burned her head.
At that moment, her headless body also danced on the ground and fell into the nearby pool before burning.
A moment later, an illusionary figure of a six-armed humanoid devil appeared above the lava pool and soon disappeared into thin air!
Finally, Saron died!
Charles then dismissed the Pseudo-Domain and returned to the physical world.
He then looked at the surroundings villa and frowned.
\'Don\'t worry. My skill won\'t fail.\' The Holem\'s Crown said in his mind.
In truth, the Holem\'s Crown played a huge role in this mission!
An hour ago, it used the \'Miracle\' skill and increased the possibility of \'their\' search to an unimaginable level!
\'Yes, the requirements are already met. The chance of Red Prince slipping out of our grasp is close to zero!\' Charles muttered inwardly.
At that moment, the golden ring in his right hand started to glow all of a sudden.
It was the communication ring!
Upon seeing this, Charles hurriedly touched it with his hand and linked it with his wisdom power.
A moment later, a female voice echoed from the other side.
"Charles, I found him. He is moving towards the Trollmoor Swamp."
It was Rachel\'s voice!
A smile appeared on Charles\'s face.
A week ago, Rachel and Oswald finally managed to escape from the Dreamforce Lair ruin and returned to the old mansion.
They then learned about Charles\'s departure from Edith and came to the Ember Kingdom in a hurry.
Once they reached the Ember Kingdom, they contacted him using the communication ring and learned about his plan.
After that, they revised the original plan and made some alterations.
From then onwards, they co-operated with each other and started their search.
When Martin told Red Prince about Charles\'s arrival, the other party hadn\'t thought two more enemies were searching for him in the Ember Kingdom and came out of his hiding spot.
At that time, Rachel and Oswald also arrived near the private villa and started their search.
"It seems luck is on our side." Charles paused for a moment as he glanced at the Holem\'s Crown and added.
"I\'ll be on my way then."
A moment later, he floated up in the sky, turned his gaze towards a particular direction, and released his wisdom power.
In a second, his wisdom power spread to all directions and almost covered 10 kilometers radius!
Simultaneously, he sensed two powerful people facing each other in the northern sky and smiled.
That\'s where Trollmoor Swamp was located!
A second later, his figure disappeared from where he stood before and reappeared next to a black-haired woman.
She had silvery eyes, a slightly wrinkled face, slightly elongated eyebrows, and fair skin.
She was none other than Rachel.
Currently, she wore a blue robe and wholly covered herself in bluish lightning.
The lightning rays circled her body like snakes and released electric sparks constantly.
Upon noticing his arrival, she glanced at him and nodded her head.
"I hope you won\'t slow us down, kid."
Saying so, she turned her gaze towards the front and looked at the wavy-blonde-haired man.
He had wide-set oceanic eyes, a slightly wrinkled face, a lean body, and appeared to be around 184cm high.
He was a man in his late 40s and wore a black robe, a long emerald-green pendant around his neck, and two unique platinum rings.
Currently, he held a black-covered book in his hand and seemed to be in deep thoughts.
He was none other than Red Prince!
Upon noticing his gaze, he returned to his normal state, looked into Charles\'s eyes, and spoke.
"It\'s been a while."
His words contain a trace of mockery!
Without minding his tone, Charles calmly analyzed the surroundings, raised his eyebrows, and asked.
"Where is he?"
Rachel also glanced around, shook her head, and spoke with a gloomy look on her face.
"He should be here by now-"
Before she could finish her words, Red Prince\'s expression stiffened.
It was as if something attacked him from behind and paralyzed him on the spot!
Simultaneously, the space behind him distorted suddenly and revealed a figure of a white-haired old man.
He had a wrinkled oval face, amber eyes, thin eyebrows, and wore a long black surcoat.
He was none other than Oswald Raven!
At that moment, Oswald\'s right hand suddenly moved at a terrifying speed and directly stabbed into Red Prince\'s back!
Within a second, it tore through his chest and appeared in the front while holding a heart!
The next second, a strange thump echoed in everyone\'s ears!
"This is for killing my daughter, Mr. Prince." He said in a cold tone and crushed the heart.
Meanwhile, Red Prince looked at his chest with wide eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Without any hesitation, he opened his mouth and muttered.
"Fate Shift."
The next instant, he disappeared from there, reappeared 30 meters away from where he was hovering before, and placed his hand over his chest area.
"Fate Heal." He said.
The next instant, the crushed heart in Oswald\'s hand turned into ashes and disappeared.
Simultaneously, the wound on Red Prince\'s chest started to heal at an unimaginable speed and soon disappeared!
At that moment, Red Prince breathed out a sigh of relief, looked at the three of them, and curled his lips upward.
"Shall we start?" He said in a smile and opened the black-covered book.
