The 5 Elemental Lord
Where is your pride?
Zeno again walked around the lake Vanzula, his frustration slightly peaking because the lightning element had not yet managed to rise.
This time he was more careful in stepping his feet, because the lightning would not strike one place and could have struck Zeno or Selena.
This was the second time he had been struck by lightning, the most dangerous element on the continent was able to suffocate him even if it was an instant. That's why Zeno is very enthusiastic and impatient in getting a lightning element.
It hurt so much, those were the words he let out when he was hit by the lightning strike let alone the immortal lightning power that was somehow in size. He could not imagine if he was hit directly, no matter what happened to his entire body.
Weak, charred burning, that's exactly what Selena imagined if Zen was hit so badly. His face paled as he looked directly at the moment when Zeno was hit by a lightning strike, even if it was a bit and the lightning was weak.
"It looks like my luck isn't here, I'd better find a way out." It felt like Zeno was giving up when once in a while his element did not rise in this place, rather than wasting time in a dangerous place, let alone the life that had to be at stake to find a way out.
Black clouds continue to clump, lightning is also getting more powerful out of striking the surface of the lake, the noise that makes Zeno and Selena do not feel at home here.
"Zen, I'm giving up, what if we get out of this horrible place. It's much worse than fighting spirits or beasts." His words were so fussy beside Zeno.
"I also think like that, after all who can endure this kind of suffering."
Zeno and Selena ran around Lake Vanzula, feeling they were not upset because there was no exit. Surrounding the lake is a jungle forest and not a hill like what is seen outside.
The continuous rumbling sounds were there, making Zeno troubled and unable to focus on finding a way out.
But as he and Selena ran, he heard the sobbing sound of a man. They both looked for the origin of the crying.
Unexpectedly, Zeno found a young man curled up under a tree, he was crying so loudly along with the thunderous roar, making Zeno and Selena so unable to bear.
"Hey hey, stop crying, what are you doing here?" Zeno said so firmly.
The young man's face lifted after hearing that there was someone before him, he so wiped away the tears and considered that help had arrived.
Selena was shocked to find out who the young man was. "Prince of the Empire." That was what came out of Selena's mouth after she was shocked.
"It turns out you're the prince of the Empire?" Ask Zeno.
"Yes, I am the prince of the empire, help me get out of here sir, I beg you, if you help me, then I will have my mother give you abundant treasure, I promise." The prince's orders were begged to Zeno.
Zeno and Selena looked at each other, it turned out that the news of the prince coming to this lake was not a lie, but strangely there was not a single imperial party guarding behind the gate to wait for the imperial prince to come out, at least the prince had to be accompanied by one of the confidants.
"Please sir, help me!" The imperial prince kowtowed to Zeno, his crying voice making Zeno feel disgusted by the imperial prince's behavior.
"Is that your pride? Don't you have any shame? You are the prince of the Empire! You shouldn't bow down to people!"
"Is that your pride? As the prince of the Empire, you should be wiser in finding a way out! Not crying leaning under a tree and expecting help!"
"You don't really reflect the prince of the Empire, since you are one of the successors to the imperial throne, how can you have such a weak mentality? Do you want your country to be destroyed? So that the balance of this continent collapsed due to the loss of one of the countries? You should have realized that."
"What if you take part in the war? are you also going to cry while looking for your mother? Leaning under a tree while hugging your legs? You could even be made into a laughing stock by a child!"
Zeno shouted in a loud voice before the imperial prince, his face a little angry and so disgusted after seeing the humiliating nature of being an imperial prince, his face was a little angry and so disgusted after seeing the shameful nature of being an imperial prince, because basically the members of the imperial family must have a tough and brave nature.
Occasionally Zeno also slapped a little hard at the face of the Imperial prince, Zeno did so to make the prince aware of such a weak soul.
"Conscious! You better come with me bravely to find a way out! Because if you're just expecting my help, then you better jump in the middle of the lake! Since I'm lost here too, there's no one to help me!"
Selena who was beside Zeno also trembled at Zeno's rude behavior and shouted so loudly like thunderbolts to the Imperial prince. But Selena was still justifying that, because that was what had to be given to the imperial prince.
Although Selena felt strange about Zeno's attitude, since Zeno was struck by lightning, Selena saw Zeno's facial features were so upset and did not have any spirit, most likely Zeno also vented his frustration to the Imperial prince.
The prince's face was so pale after getting such rough advice from Zeno, that the imperial prince was as old as Fang Tan, but his mentality was instantly shrunk after being yelled at by the young boy from him.
"Why? Why are you afraid of me? Is your degree higher than mine? Snap me back! show me that you have the soul of leadership." Zeno was unceasingly snapping at the Imperial prince.
The imperial prince took a deep breath, then he ventured to answer Zeno's clasping according to what Zeno ordered.
"Take me off, otherwise I'll report to my bodyguards out there." He said in such a low tone.
Zeno increasingly held tightly to the Imperial prince's clothes, even he also slightly raised them which made the imperial prince tiptoe.
"Stupid!"
"You're too dependent on the bodyguards out there? Remember stupid, you're out here all alone, trapped in the roar of lightning that keeps coming, how can you report to people out there?"
"There wasn't a single person out there when we entered, it's certain that your bodyguards had left you!"
The face of the imperial prince returned as white as paper, he had not expected that his entire bodyguard had left him. Though, they should have faithfully waited for the imperial prince to come out. At least if the imperial prince hadn't come out yet, then the imperial party sent a great elementalist to pick him up.
"Therefore, from today on, do not rely too much on others. At least try first while you can, if your limits are maxed out, then you can depend on others!"
