"So, how are we going to fight it?" Sun Zhou Yi threw an unexpected question at Musashi Hirata.
Before Musashi Hirata could answer, the goat-headed creature appeared in front of them and swung its huge arm at them.
Boom!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Translucent blue blades slashed at the huge arm. However, it failed to leave even a trace on the arm.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two figures emerged from the rising dust.
"His skin is much thicker than I thought! My sword could not even cut through it!" Musashi Hirata said with a frown.
"The dark core of this creature is also strange. It's damn huge, completely different from Wyvern King" Sun Zhou Yi said with a frown as he looked at the creature's chest.
He remembered that the Wyvern King had many dark cores that spread throughout its body. But this goat-headed creature had a huge hexagonal crystal dark core in its chest all the way to its belly.
"Let's try..." Before he could finish his words, Musashi Hirata hurriedly raised his sword.
Boom!
The goat-headed creature opened its mouth and showered them with black balls.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata were covered in an explosion of Dark Ki.
"Even without someone controlling it, this guy is still quite dangerous!" Sun Zhou Yi's voice sounded.
He and Musashi Hirata were covered in two layers of ki strengthening and protecting their bodies at the same time.
"Let's not fool around..." Musashi Hirata bent his body while his right hand held the sword hilt, Draw Sword. It was the stance for Draw Sword.
Sun Zhou Yi also summoned his Ki Sword, four 10-meter long Ki Swords. Three swords floated in the air while he held one for himself.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The three swords shot at the goat-headed creature.
Slub! Slub! Slub!
All three swords pierced the goat-headed creature's chest. Even though the swords pierced the flesh, the dark core was fine. The sword was unable to destroy the core.
"It seems that your swords are not good enough to destroy the core..."
Swoosh!
Musashi Hirata drew his sword. His figure flashed forward, and at the same time, countless blades of ki struck the goat-headed creature.
But it was not enough as the blades only left deep cuts. They could not pierce the core.
Boom!
The attack failed to destroy its core, but the goat-headed creature fell to the ground.
Wish!
Sun Zhou Yi soared through the air with his ten-meter-long Ki Sword.
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
The Ki Sword was enveloped in lightning.
Swoosh!
He slashed his sword at the fallen goat-headed creature.
Boom!
The sword sliced through the creature's head. But then the sword got stuck on its chest. The sword was unable to cut through the dark core.
"I'm not done yet!"
The lightning flashed and the ki sword exploded.
Boom!
The explosion engulfed the upper part of the goat-headed creature. The flesh was swallowed by the explosion, but the crystal-like core was completely unharmed.
"Don't forget me!" Musashi Hirata rushed to the exposed core with his two swords. The swords made a strange sound.
Wung! Wung!
"Storm Blade!"
A new secret technique he had recently learned. He combined Quake Sword and Storm Blade, intending to create a destructive force.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
A storm of countless blades hit the exposed crystal.
However, all it did was leave many scratches on the crystal-like core.
"What the..." Musashi Hirata spat at the core.
"Watch out Hirata!"
Hirata looked up. In the air, Sun Zhou Yi was preparing something big.
Ten of ten-meter-long ki swords floated around him. Five swords were wrapped in a bright flame, while the remaining five were wrapped in yellow lightning.
"If one is not enough, I will give you ten!"
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The ten swords descended into the exposed crystal-like core.
BOOM!
The ground shook as flame and lightning erupted. Two elements caused a huge explosion that engulfed the large area.
Snap!
A loud cracking sound resounded.
"It's cracking!" Sun Zhou Yi was overjoyed.
Not wanting to lose to Sun Zhou Yi, Musashi Hirata prepared his next attack. He waited for the raging flame and lightning to disappear.
Soon, the flame and lightning died down. Just as Musashi Hirata was about to launch his attack, he noticed that the large crystal-like core had disappeared.
At the center of the explosion, a smaller version of the goat-headed creature stood. Surprisingly, its eyes were no longer hollow, but bright red, only red without pupils.
The size of the goat-headed creature shrank to only two meters in height.
Musashi Hirata and Sun Zhou Yi were surprised by the sudden change.
While the two of them were dazed, the goat-headed figure blurred and disappeared.
"Watch out, Zhou Yi!" Musashi Hirata shouted, but it was too late.
Boom!
Sun Zhou Yi's body crashed to the ground like a rocket. On the spot where Sun Zhou Yi was floating, the goat-headed creature appeared.
The goat-headed creature was simply too fast. Then, the creature looked down at Musashi Hirata.
When their eyes met, Musashi Hirata felt that there was a great force that limited his body. The force bound his body, he tried to move the body but he could not. The body simply would not listen to the command.
In the next moment, the creature appeared in front of Musashi Hirata. It threw a blow at Musashi Hirata's chest.
"Kuarghh!!"
Blood spurted from Hirata's mouth. His body was thrown back and crashed to the ground.
In a fraction of a second, Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata were defeated.
"Huh... It seems that I have entered this realm!"
Out of the blue, the goat-headed creature murmured as it moved around his arms. After a moment, the creature looked at the pit that Musashi Hirata and Sun Zhou Yi had fallen into.
"Human! Thanks to you, this emperor was able to regain my body! I will spare your life for now!"
After saying that, the goat-headed creature disappeared.

Regal Kingdom
Heero was accompanied by Vincent Kane, a Black Knight of the Kingdom. They rode to the Crown Prince's residence in a limousine provided by the royal family.
When they arrived at the Crown Prince's grand residence, Alexa was waiting for them at the front door.
Still wearing the same blue morning dress, the beautiful lady smiled at the guests.
"Welcome to our humble residence~"
Heero wanted to retort, "Humble your ass," but he knew the lady was just being polite. He just smiled at the comment, even though the children were amazed at the luxurious residence.
It seems I have to build a similar residence...' Heero thought when he noticed how amazed Miao Miao was. He had enough money to build a similar large residence.
The ladies hugged each other after the greeting. After that, Alexa led the group inside, directly to the large and well decorated dining room.
Gerard William Kingsman was waiting in the dining room. He greeted Heero with a hug before pulling Heero to the table.
Several kinds of food had been prepared for the breakfast of the royal family members.
Just like that, the group ate breakfast in the royal residence while having a little chat. The breakfast was harmonious, as if the morning event had never happened.
The children were like little hungry wolves. They devoured the food greedily.
After breakfast, it was time for tea. The crown prince led Heero into his beautiful garden. There was a table for two. Two cups of tea and a plate of cookies lay on the table.
With his butt just touching the comfortable chair, the Crown Prince tossed Heero a shocking invitation.
"Sir Heero, would you like to stay in the kingdom, permanently?"
