Everyone stared blankly at the sight.

Pow! Poow! Pow!

‘He’s beating him thoroughly.

Quite thoroughly.’

Pow!

The sword scabbard was skillfully striking the spot that it had already struck.

“Ugh!”

His body spasmed after being beaten while the sword scabbard once again drew a smooth arch as it deftly struck the same spot within two seconds.

Pow, pow!

It even struck twice in a row.

The two powerful blows soon brought everyone to their senses.

There was a lot of noise everywhere all at once. H, human! Choi Han is really good at giving a beating! Watching him do it is so r, refreshing! Choi Han is really g, great!

The six-year-old Raon Miru exclaimed continuously at this new knowledge.

“Y, y, y- your highness!”

“Pwahaha, beat him up! Thrash him!”

The faces of the people on the Empire’s side went pale while the Dark Elves laughed loudly and cheered for Choi Han.

“Ugh, cough! Y, you-“

Adin seemed to have summoned the black despair again as he swung his clenched mangled hand that was wrapped in black smoke at Choi Han.

Grab.

However, Choi Han’s hand caught Adin’s fist.

Choi Han tightened his grip on the fist.

“K, kuaaaah!”

Adin let out a terrible scream.

Choi Han didn’t care as he broke the bones in Adin’s hand. He then resumed the beating with a refreshed expression on his face.

“…As I thought-“

‘Choi Han isn’t normal either.’

Cale shook his head as he watched Choi Han beating a person while having an innocent expression on his face. However, he gave Choi Han a thumbs up once more when their eyes met.

What Choi Han was doing now was Cale’s favorite of everything that Choi Han had done so far.

Choi Han seemed to have somehow understood Cale’s praise-filled gaze and nodded his head.

‘Hm?’

Choi Han wielded the sword scabbard in a different direction as Cale’s head tilted slightly to one side at Choi Han’s nod.

Oooong-

Black aura formed on the sword scabbard and drew a line.

Slice.

The Imperial Prince’s right leg made of dead mana was cut off.

Craaack!

No, it broke into bits and pieces as soon as the beautiful black light touched it. Adin looked as if he couldn’t believe what he had just witnessed, while Choi Han started to whisper in a low voice so that only Adin could hear his voice with a grin on his face as their eyes met.

“I don’t just have despair.”

‘I have happiness too. I’m feeling a bit more free than before.’

However, Choi Han couldn’t say that last part out loud.

“We must save his highness!”

“Everyone, break through! Attack and attack again!”

The Empire’s knights and mages tried to break through the Dark Elves with a different magnitude of strength than before. The faces of the Empire’s knights were full of desperation as they were determined to save Imperial Prince Adin at all costs.

“Oh no you don’t.”

“Exactly.”

However, the Dark Elves responded in kind as the Empire’s forces ran wild. The Empire’s forces could not easily break through no matter how superior they were in number.

In fact, the Dark Elves’ side was as strong as, if not stronger, than the Empire’s forces despite the numbers disadvantage.

It was inevitable since the Dark Elves shouted loudly whenever the Empire’s sword, magic, or black magic came close.

“The Imperial Prince will get beaten more if I get hurt!”

“The Imperial Prince will have one bone broken for every injury on my arm you bastards!”

‘What the hell.’

Cale felt flustered and uncertain about what to do about the Empire’s forces while looking at the Dark Elves.

Cale couldn’t understand the intentions of the Dark Elves who were running wild and acting as trashy as himself.

However, he was satisfied either way.

It was Cale’s style to make others feel cheated and annoyed.

The Dark Elves were filled with anger after absorbing the large amount of dead mana in the area and hearing the shrieks of the unfairly killed people from within the black despair.

So Choi Han beating up the person responsible for it was making them extremely excited.

There was also a reason that they were warriors.

The particularly belligerent Dark Elves were the Dark Elves who became warriors.

Cale, who was watching them run wild and use cheap tactics against the Empire’s forces, turned his head after hearing a sound.

Choi Han was approaching.

Draag, drag, draag.

He was approaching while dragging Adin by the collar.

‘This scary bastard!’

Cale frowned at Choi Han who displayed a bloodthirsty appearance for the first time in a long while, but had no choice but to greet him since he was approaching with a refreshed expression on his face.

“Did you get what you wanted?”

“Yes, Cale-nim.”

Choi Han stopped about two steps from Cale’s silver shield and Raon’s shield that was in front of it and faced Cale. Cale leisurely nodded his head with a blank expression on his face.

“Congratulations.”

“Yes, thank you.”

It was only a short conversation, but Choi Han finally felt completely at ease. Cale blankly looked at Choi Han’s expression before turning away.

Shaaa-

The silver shield slowly faded away. It was only then that Raon’s silver shield disappeared as well. I’ll keep it up invisibly!

Raon put up a three-layered transparent shield instead of the silver shield.

‘How smart.’

Cale walked out of the shield while thinking that Raon was a clever Dragon and crouched down. It was then that he was at eye level with Adin.

“Haa, haa, ugh, gasp.”

Adin was breathing heavily.
