Hero of Darkness

Chapter 786: The Hidden Prince

Kahn who was in his original human appearance was gobsmacked and panicked and blurted out the name of the surprising arrival. And the person turned out to be a peak 5th stage saint but also someone they knew.

Edmund Thandruil aka the human alchemist, who was also their business partner and companion.

In actuality, he was the main reason why they started this expedition in the Immortal Dungeon in the first place.

Edmund let out a turquoise-colored saint pressure and quickly revealed his hostile intent in an overbearing way.

As for the question asked by Kahn, he didn't bother answering it or even spare their group a glance.

"You… who are you? And how did you arrive here?" asked Vildred, his expression being full of surprise as everyone else.

"You definitely didn't engage in a single conflict. Otherwise, I would have sensed your presence a long time ago." he iterated in a stoic voice.

"I followed behind a group of fools who cleared the path for me." replied Edmund as he chuckled lightly under his mask which covered half of his face.

Vildred's gaze then turned towards Kahn as he asked him…

"How do you know him?"

"He is a human Alchemist we know. He was our companion. But we thought he left long ago.

Now I'm also suspicious of his identity because he was clearly a 1st stage saint till this point." responded Kahn with a stern countenance.

"Child… He is no human." suddenly, Vildred decades and the very next second.

BOOM!!

Massive thunderous bursts of lightning bolts fell from the stormy sky and the entire floor started rumbling.

Vildred revealed an intense murderous aura, targeting Edmund as he spoke in a vengeful tone.

"I sense the same bloodline as that of that bastard who sealed me here along with my brothers."

"You… What is your real identity? Tell me the truth, now!!" he bellowed in rage.

"My great grandfather." responded Edmund in a lifeless tone.

He then let out a mischievous smirk and continued in a prideful tone…

"I am Aragorn Travion Insalor Venric."

His loud voice resounded in the surroundings and everyone including the dragon emperor was taken aback again.

Obviously, they all knew the surname Insalor Venric. It was the surname of the High Elf imperial family.

So in simple words…

Edmund Thandruil, no Aragorn Travion Insalor Venric…

Was the Prince of the Zivot Empire.

----------------

Kahn revealed an incredulous and complicated expression.

For some reason, this alchemist friend of theirs revealed himself to be the Prince of the Elven empire.

[Not possible! He is a human and not a High Elf.

Or maybe he is using some sort of artifact or magic spell to hide his species and identity?] wondered Kahn in his mind.

Just then, the peak 5th stage saint spoke aloud.

"I do not have the time to explain myself."

His stern gaze locked onto the ginormous Vildred as he spoke…

"I invoke the ancient right to contend for the trial of Commandment of Fellowship." he declared openly.

Rumble!

Rumble! <novelnext> </novelnext>

Crackle!

Lightning ran smoke on the entire floor as Vildred's entire ginormous being turned furious.

"You bastard! You dare contend for the trial?!

You think I will let that happen?!" he questioned while exuding peak killing intent.

"To get bound to a descendant of the very high elf who ambushed and sealed me here?

In your dream, you insect!"

BOOM!!

BOOM!!

In the following moments, hundreds of terrifying and destructive lightning bolts merged and attacked Aragorn altogether at Vildred's command.

Each of these lightning bolts were similar to the one which killed Ervalen previously when he came here. But the unified force was at least 10 times stronger and dangerous, displaying how resentful Vildred was.

SHING!

SHING!

CLANG!

CLANG!

But soon, hundreds of the massive archaic formations surrounding the entire 60 kilometers of the floor shone brightly as thousands of massive and multicolored chains shot at Vildred, plunging them into his 5 kilometers tall body from all sides and chaining him on the spot as they made him unable to move.

Swoosh!

The dust from the impact finally settled but the aftermath shocked Kahn.

Because Aragorn on the other end, was covered under a spherical orb-like formation made of these exact formations, completely untouched.

Instead of getting terrified or cowering… Edmund aka Aragorn gave a confident gaze at Vildred and spoke in an authoritative tone.

"Do you not know the properties of the Maskaanxavir Formation, you foolish dragon?

You cannot harm or kill anyone related to the person whose bloodline was while casting this formation." he sneered at the dragon emperor.

"I'm not like one of those stupid Heroes of Life who came before.

So stop wasting my time and start the goddamn trial!" he shouted, showing a demeanor that of a prideful ruler himself.

Vildred was thoroughly infuriated at this moment but his strength was greatly suppressed because of these thousands of chains made of mystical energy which not only stopped his physical movements but also the ability to use world energy and mana.

[Dammit! If this formation hadn't drained my world energy and made my strength drop to that of a 6th stage saint in the past thousand years… I would've been able to break this restriction and kill this bastard!] he cursed in his mind.

However, the next moment, Rathnaar suddenly spoke in his mind.

[Pick a side, you stupid numbnut!

Let the boy also partake in the trial.

We don't know what his motives are… but he's obviously our enemy as well.

Or would you rather be a slave of the descendant of the High Elf who confined you here for thousand years?] he cajoled the royal dragon.

Now that a new variable has appeared… it also overturned Kahn's situation as well.

Previously, Vildred would've most likely waited for Rathnaar's soul essence to deplete and then kill Kahn without even giving them a chance to use the Trial of Commandment of Fellowship.

But now that Aragorn aka the prince had appeared out of nowhere and revealed his intentions to take part in the trial, it also created an opportunity for them to use it as a means to get a chance to survive.

Hence, Rathnaar couldn't just let go of that opportunity and play a big gamble since their circumstances were in turmoil.

Finally, with a greatly indignant and aggrieved expression, Vildred declared.

"Fine! I shall allow both of you to take the trial."
