Sanggana Swordsman
125. New Devotion
*Holy Blood Ring*
A large army led by the Crown Prince of Ci Cin Country Prince Baijin had to spend the night in a valley that had a clear water river flow.
The team should be rested to restore their freshness and energy. Thousands of tents were built in a large area along the river side. They still needed a day's journey to reach the eastern border of Lor We Country.
However, until midnight, there are still those who have not decided to rest. That person was Prince Baijin along with his personal bodyguard Sala A Jin, his four generals and a number of soldiers involved.
There were four large fire stoves placed on wooden poles as lighting on the open ground on the riverbank. Back then, Prince Baijin was standing alone in the middle of the arena. He appeared in plain clothes without wearing any protective gear or clothing.
In two places, groups of soldiers prepared in battle-uniformed formations and were armed with spears and arrows.
“Spear!” sala A Jin shouted giving a cue.
Set set set!
Simultaneously, the group of spear soldiers present in the two opposite places threw their spears targeting Prince Baijin.
Zes! Zes!
Prince Baijin fluttered both arms simultaneously in two opposite directions. And so, each of those arms flashed a curved green beam which both slashed all of the spear rods that shot towards him. The spears fell in the middle of the road.
The result made Prince Baijin smile small, but the look in his eyes was sharp.
“Arrow!” sala A Jin's orders again.
The arrow shot across the two places, just like before. Twenty arrows shot rapidly from two directions targeting the crown prince.
Brezz!
Prince Baijin flicked both of his hands with hard bending fingers. From the ten fingers of the hand came a stream of green electricity that shot up to ambush the twenty arrows so that it stopped in mid-air, then shattered into ashes.
“Hahaha..!” Prince Baijin laughed loudly knowing the results he got. Then he shouted to his personal bodyguard, “Sala A Jin, go forward with your best abilities!”
Sing!
Seeing the unexpected development experienced by Prince Baijin, then Sala A Jin felt no need to hesitate. So he got his good sword out of his war. Next, Sala A Jin flashed directly thrust his sword right into his master's body.
No no no no!
With only his bare hands, Prince Baijin repelled all the stabs and slashes of the sword. Prince Baijin's two hands were not injured in the slightest. Sala A Jin could only be shocked in his attack.
“Truly amazing. Where did the Prince get such a new and great devotion in such a short time?” inner Sala A Jin.
“Take out all your prowess, A Jin!” prince Baijin shouted with a big smile.
The tech!
After that shout, Sala A Jin suddenly moved faster and his sword thrust was not parried by Prince Baijin. The tip of Sala A Jin's sword pierced into Prince Baijin's stomach. However, the tip of the sword was restrained, as if there was an invisible force lining Prince Baijin's body.
“Hahaha!” prince Baijin laughed as she let the sword of her guard press against her stomach.
“Hiat!” screeched Sala A Jin while pressing one more palm up the sword, exerting additional deep power pressure.
Maam!
The additional pressure actually makes there is a boost of energy that thickens the body of Sala A Jin to fall.
“General-general! Go forward!” yelled Prince Baijin again.
The four generals of the Ci Cin Country forces obeyed the Prince's orders. All four advanced armed with their own weapons. Two generals with swords, one armed with an iron spear and one armed with two iron balls as big as a hand.
The four generals ganged at the Crown Prince. Even Sala A Jin got up again and participated in the braking.
However, the high-level braking did not make Prince Baijin desperate, let alone get injured or fall to the ground.
Meatballs! The daks! Buk buk!
At one point, Prince Baijin stomped both of her arms against the chests of two generals. Furthermore, while bending over to avoid the sword of Sala A Jin, Prince Baijin's right foot climbed to poke the chin of his guard. In the next instant, Prince Baijin's hard fist pierced into the stomachs of his two remaining generals.
“Hahaha! Enough!” exclaimed Prince Baijin who was satisfied with the development of his magic that was really beyond his expectations.
However, the proof was not enough for the prince.
At midnight. Prince Baijin flashed into the river then dashed over the water and stopped across the wide river.
Subsequently, a number of soldiers appeared pushing two manganese, a stone thrower or fireball. Prince Baijin was waiting across the street.
“Install!” a general gave a warning.
The commissioned soldier immediately attached a large stone to the still-locked thrower.
“Burn!” the general's orders again.
The stone that had been covered with special oil was then burned.
“Shoot!” command of the general again.
The soldier in charge immediately pulled off the restraining key on the device. The giant spoon-like thrower swung up and threw the flint far ahead, across the river.
Dar!
Prince Baijin leaped high into the air and punched the ball of flint into the air.
“Shoot!” the general again.
Then a ball of fire stones was thrown again to attack Prince Baijin.
Dar!
Back the prince jumped high and kicked the fire stone ball until it was crushed to pieces.
“Shoot!”
This time it was not one ball of flint flying, but two at a time.
“Hiaat!” pekik Prince Baijin.
Brezz!
This time Prince Baijin did not jump, but stomped both of her arms with her fingers bending hard. A stream of green-colored electricity shot into the air and ensnared the two balls of flint in the air. The two balls of flint got stuck in the air.
The two balls of flint were then reduced to ashes and blown away by the night wind.
Back two balls of flint shot out, but this time it was in a collision with the same target point.
Prince Baijin did not act anything. He stood and waited for the ball of fire to come.
Dar! Dar!
The two balls of flint flashed past Prince Baijin's body. That made Sala A Jin, the general and the soldier involved, tense. They are overwhelmed with worry.
However, the two fireballs were smashed without hurting the prince's skin in the slightest. It didn't even push him a step back.
“Hahaha..!” This time Prince Baijin laughed even longer. Then he shouted loudly, “I am the candidate of the rulers of the east and west!”
Prince Baijin actually never practiced or learned all the new magic that he has now. It happened because of the magic of the Holy Blood Ring that was now coiled on his finger. There was one power that led Prince Baijin's mind to perform certain actions which then gave birth to a new devotion to him. The new services were very noticeably developing on their own. The longer the magic is higher even without being desired by the prince. (BH)
