Chapter 18 - Death of the prince

When I got there I could see a wizard in green robes slaughtering the vampires.

-Hey hey, leave my children-

I said while creating a barrier around the archmage and me.

-I am Alexander, the archmage number 10 of the Iue Empire, I...-

-Yes yes, I don't care-

Without saying a word, I began to cast spell after spell.

Despite being talkative, this archmage is up to the task, without much problem he canceled my spells and counterattacked with his own.

It's true that I'm only using simple spells, but it's an achievement that I was able to stand still for so long.

Time passed and the small scale battles around were over, only the two of us were left.

-To be able to last so long against me... who are you?-

I don't even answer his question, I don't know if he can send communications through my barrier.

I slowly began to increase the frequency of my attacks, the wounds on Alejandro began to increase until he finally lost his strength and fell defeated.

-Kill me... I'm not going to be the toy of the demons-

-Believe me, you will die-

Taking him by the neck, I dragged the wounded magician to where Alma was.

-Kill him, I'm already at the maximum level and I can't improve anymore, you instead have a chance to improve-

Alma was somewhat confused when she saw the wounded wizard, but then, without asking any questions, she picked up an iron bar from the ground and started beating the wizard.

Due to his lack of strength, it took dozens of hits to finish off the magician, which created a bloody scene with flesh and blood scattered everywhere.

-Haha...-

-How many levels did you climb?-

-I was at level 13 and went up to level 41-

So that archmage was at level 80 or so.

-Do you want to be a warrior, a magician or what?-

This is an important question, because there is no point in leveling up if you don't choose a career.

-Wanna...-

Alma closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them.

-I want to be a warrior who can serve you, master Alex-

-Okay, then you will go to the demon realm to train with the goblins and orcs-

-Understood-

The next thing I did was walk around the city and give orders.

The smell of burning meat filled my nostrils, everywhere I looked was littered with bodies.

-His majesty of him, our casualties are only 40 troops, 5 dragons and 35 vampires-

A dragon soldier reverted to his human form and gave his report.

-Excellent, take 90% of the humans back to the demon realm to do forced labor, the rest stay in the city for now-

While I was walking a stone hit my head, luckily I dodged it.

-Damned demons that only bring destruction to this world, are cancer for humanity-

A young man of approximately 15 years old was crying while throwing rocks of each time greater size at me.

-Go and make an example of that young man, hang him in the city square and let him die slowly-

It may sound cruel but what did you expect, that young man should have known the consequences of his actions.

-To the order-

The dragon soldier quickly reached the young man and dragged him away.

-You... You killed my parents!-

And the young man disappeared from my sight.

Let's go back to the academy then.

First I left Alma in the care of my maids in the demon realm, they will train her to be a warrior, then I went back to the academy and had a good night's sleep.

Hey, the bed smells like Alma.

The next day I got up early, put on my uniform and went to the cafeteria to have breakfast.

After choosing what looked the best, I turned around looking for a table.

-Alex, this way-

A couple of kids called out to me so I went to their table and sat down.

-How was the weekend Alex-

-I haven't seen you since Friday-

These two were my friends from the academy.

One was Brus, son of a count, he is in group C, the other is Angel, a viscount who is in group B.

The truth is that we coincided when they were looking for a table, so they sat down with me.

From that moment we began to talk and in some way meeting to eat together daily.

-Did you hear? They say that Prince Jerd is on his last-

Angel said as he ate.

"Oh, did he mean it?"

Said.

-Yes, they say that he has been sick for a week, there are even those who say that he could die-

-Oh...-

While they were talking and I was enjoying my meal, a communiqué sounded through the magical speakers.

-Testing, today we are in national mourning, Prince Jerd, the emperor's first son, has just passed away, please go to the academy courtyard-
