"The queen ordered us to kill Kaizer Alfredo."

The ice Prince Vad utilized to capture Leon, suddenly grew spiky. He then pierced Leon with sharp ice in every part of his body, instantly killing him.

"Scarlet, you got any idea where is Kaizer right now?" Prince Vad suddenly asked to Scarlet.

"...He is on the hangar" Scarlet responded to Vad who looks very angry.

"Sorry, i will leave you two here for now." Prince Vad apologized and subsequently run toward the hangar.

"Stay safe, Prince Vad." Scarlet silently said to Vad after hearing him run toward the hangar.

After Prince Vad left the area, the whole cockpit went silent as Leon's blood spilled over the floor. In light of the fact that Leon was instantly killed, Scarlet then closed his wide-open eyes.

"You should have whispered it on my ears, Leon." Scarlet spoke as she gather Leon's blood.

"Hey, Master, can you please hold my sword." Scarlet asked to her Master.

After Scarlet asks, there has been no response. So she turned her head at Neo's direction only to find out her master is currently missing, "Wha- Master?? where the hell is he?" Scarlet exclaimed after realizing her master is not with her anymore. Turns out Prince Vad bring Neo with him.

"Hehe, you thought I was going to leave you and my darling alone? Keep in mind this stranger, I'll be keeping an eye on you from now on!" Prince Vad said to Neo as he dragged him toward the hangar.

After exiting the cockpit, Prince Vad was able to take Neo by grabbing his hands. They didn't notice this because Neo and Scarlet were too focused on staring at Leon's body to realize what Vad had done.

"Hey, Stranger what's your name?" Prince Vad asked to Neo as he dragged him.

"It's Neo Bastion." Neo responded.

"I see." Vad said.

"So, do you need any help from me?" Neo Inquired.

"What?! No, why would i ask help from my enemy?" Prince Vad replied.

"But we are not enemies." Neo spoke.

"We are enemies! you're pulling my darling away from me!" Prince Vad exclaimed.

"Darling? oh! you mean Scarlet?" Neo inquired.

"Yes! my future wife!!" Prince Vad retaliated.

"But didn't she refused your proposal?" Neo said.

"Yeah she did... But! i will not yield! i will do everything to get her!" Prince Vad proudly shouted.

"Alright, well, good luck then." Neo responded.

"Anyway. Who are you to her? I always hear her say master to you." Vad asked.

"She's my student and I am her master, that's all.." Neo replied.

"I don't believe you. You don't look like a master for me. Yeah, you got some skills, but the master of the Scarlet Tiara, the STRONGEST general Azkon Empire have, should be more stronger, right?" Prince Vad said.

"Hehehehe, perfect timing." Prince Vad whispered to himself.

"So, Neo. If you really are Scarlet's master, then you should be able to beat those ten big dudes guarding that door." Prince Vad added as he pointed at the ten big dudes guarding the door to hangar.

"Do i really need to prove it? you can just asked Scarlet you know.." Neo asked as he breath for air after running for a while.

"Yeah, i can just do that. But, i want to see your skills myself." Prince Vad replied.

"And also i'm a prince so i can get you arrested if you refused my challenge. For trespassing." Prince Vad said to Neo while smirking.

"?!... *sigh* Fine.. I need some exercise anyway." Neo said as he slowly walked toward the door.

"Neo! you can't kill them, you need to render them all, Unconscious just by using your fist.." Prince Vad yelled at Neo.

"Alright.." Neo replied.

"Hehe, let's see what's this guy will do." Prince Vad mumbled to himself while watching Neo walked toward the guards.

"Hey, who's that?" One of the guard on the door said after seeing Neo walking toward them.

"I don't know. He looks like an intruder." The other guard replied.

Neo instantly lunged at the guards on the door and assaulted them. Then, as Neo is occupied fighting the guards, one of them pulls a gun from his belt and points it towards the group. He then discharged the gun, causing another guard to grab Neo's legs and restrain him so that he could not move and dodged the bullet. But he got another way to dodge the bullet. Neo then instantly used his two fingers to catch the bullet that was heading straight for his head.

Prince Vad screamed to himself incoherently, "WHAT!?" Prince Vad's response was insignificant in comparison to the guards' quick stoppage after witnessing Neo simply catch the bullet with his two fingers.

The guards suddenly retreated away from Neo. They then nodded at each other and subsequently bowed down simultaneously. "We surrender!!" they all shouted at Neo.

"Hey, Prince, does this count??" Neo asked to Prince Vad who are still in surprised after seeing what Neo did."

"Ye- yes. t-th-that c-counts, i guess..." Prince Vad replied.

"Good. then, can i go back to Scarlet now?" Neo Inquired.

"Yeah you can..." Prince Vad responded.

After that all of them then suddenly hear running footsteps from the hallway where Prince Vad and Neo came from. "Masteeer!!" they all heard. It was Scarlet. She immediately followed Prince Vad after gathering all of Leon's blood.

"Phew, i thought something happen to you Master..." Scarlet said after arriving at Vad and Neo's location.

"Now, Prince Vad, why did you kidnapped my master?" Scarlet asked to Prince Vad.

"I didn't kidnapped him." Prince Vad responded to Scarlet with a smile hoping she believed his lie.

"Hm! next time you kidnap master again, i will throw you out of my ship." Scarlet said after realizing Vad was lying. She then grabbed Neo's hands and go to the door to enter the hangar.

"What are you still waiting there Prince Vad? you still got a brother to save right?" Scarlet inquired to Prince Vad.

"Ah right! i'm coming, i'm coming." Prince Vad replied.

"Damn you, Neo Bastion!! I can't believe that guy was really her master." Prince Vad whispered to himself.

After that the three of them all head to where is Kaizer at. Kaizer was currently on a middle of a firefight, the enemy got a machine gun prototype with them, so they all take cover behind the big shield Kaizer summoned in order to protect them.

After a while the shooting suddenly stopped. Kaizer and his comrades all safely looked at the prototype gun, curious of what did happen. They all then saw their general standing on the top of the dead machine gunners. They also have found out that the hangar was clear from the enemies.

"General Scarlet! what are you doing here." Kaizer asked to Scarlet.

Prince Vad then appear on Scarlet's back and looked at Kaizer.

"Kaizer, i got something to say."
