He's the seventh prince of the Magic Creature, what's wrong with setting a mountain on fire?

Who can do anything to him?

Moreover, burning all of this would be a huge achievement if it could capture Ronald and Eileen, or even just either of them.

Compared to the gains, these losses are negligible and completely bearable.

Most importantly, this isn't his territory; it belongs to his third sister...

Even if Third Sister's territory is reduced to ashes, what does that have to do with him, even a fraction of Mana's influence?

Damn it!

Ronald let out a low curse.

Eileen grabbed his wrist, concealing her presence.

However, this method also made their movements quite unpredictable. They couldn't completely dodge the densely falling flames from the sky. A cluster of flames landed on his hair, burning off a large patch of his extremely precious hair, and in some places, even exposing his scalp.

Despicable, despicable, despicable...

He could imagine how ugly and pathetic he looked right now.

Thick black smoke filled their nostrils, causing Ronald and Eileen to cough violently.

The flames didn't kill them, but they severely hampered their movements; everywhere you looked, it was crimson red.

That idiot Ramon, when did he become so clever that he would use this kind of attack?

This was completely beyond their plans.

Ronald tried to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, it was filled with filth and ash. The taste of ashes was unbearable, and Ronald spat repeatedly.

His nose was almost completely blocked by ash, making it extremely difficult for him to breathe.

Ronald was unaware that this wasn't because their noses were blocked, but because the entire forest was burning fiercely, causing a massive and sudden depletion of oxygen, which was causing them to begin experiencing symptoms of oxygen deficiency.

However, both Ronald and Eileen are extremely powerful, and even without oxygen, they can sustain themselves for a long time and will not die so easily.

But if they remain trapped here, their fate will be no different from that of the animals that were burned to death.

They wanted to escape, but at this moment they couldn't even tell which way to go. The flames had engulfed everything, and they could only run around in a panic. Ronald had many water magic scrolls on him, but he didn't dare to take them out and use them, because he was afraid that he would be discovered immediately if he did.

Moreover, compared to the overwhelming flames all around, those water magic scrolls were truly a drop in the ocean.

They could only struggle and dodge desperately in the burning flames. Their body temperature rose higher and higher, their skin became dry and cracked, and the soles of their shoes seemed to be melting, constantly radiating scalding heat... Suddenly, they seemed to hear a strange sound.

A withered tree trunk, seemingly unable to withstand the flames, snapped with a creak and fell directly in the direction where Ronald and Eileen were.

This happens frequently, but it's not always possible to avoid it, especially when the two people are holding hands.

Seeing the tree trunk crashing down, Ronald almost instinctively swung his other hand, unleashing a sword beam that shattered the trunk into pieces with a soft thud.

This scene caused a sinister smile to appear on Ramon's face, who had been watching the entire sea of fire.

He opened his gaping maw; this guy's mouth truly lived up to its name.

"Finally found you... you rat scurrying around everywhere."

The next second, Ramon's body shot into the blazing sea of fire.

Despite the flames burning his body, Ramon to completely ignore the minor damage.

His body was like a bulldozer, accompanied by a rumbling sound. With each movement, the ground bounced, and wherever his feet landed, clouds of dust immediately billowed up.

When faced with a burning tree blocking his way, he didn't hesitate to swing his hand and smash the tree away.

Tall trees were as vulnerable as Sapling in front of Ramon, and boulders were crushed into pieces by Ramon's huge toes. His massive body even managed to carve a path through the sea of fire.

Ronald and Eileen also felt the tremors from the ground, knowing that Ramon had begun his operation.

However, the towering flames and black smoke made it impossible for them to see anything in the distance. They instinctively felt that staying in one place would be very dangerous, and subconsciously fled to a place where the flames were slightly less intense.

Just as the two left their original spot, a thick, black breath shot out and slammed into their original location.

Immediately following was a loud bang, a violent explosion.

This move was named "Demon King's Breath" by Ramon.

Because his name was too flashy, Ramon never dared to publicly use it.

The malevolent energy, mixed with intense heat, instantly transformed into a violent shockwave that spread outwards.

Eileen and Ronald had barely escaped when the shockwave caught up with them. They were both thrown back almost simultaneously, and in mid-air, they couldn't help but let go of each other's hands.

Without Eileen's help, Ronald's body finally appeared in mid-air.

That scene made Eileen's expression change drastically. She nimbly flipped in mid-air, lightly touched a large tree with her toes, and immediately rushed towards Ronald with lightning speed.

She knew that without her help, Ronald would soon be surrounded by Magic Creature.

She and Ronald had a fairly good relationship, and she couldn't bear to see Ronald die in the clutches of Magic Creature. Most importantly, the Hero's Party had already suffered too many losses; Karthus and Benson were already dead, and if Ronald also...

The consequences would be unbearable.

In contrast to Eileen's anxiety, Ronald displayed his manly courage at this moment.

Perhaps knowing he had no future and was destined to never escape, Ronald steeled his heart, and a sharp, slender sword, which looked more like a ceremonial sword, appeared in his palm.

With a flick of his wrist, a sharp sword aura burst forth from the blade, hurtling towards Eileen.

Eileen was forced to stop, and suddenly found herself with nowhere to grab onto in mid-air, her body abruptly backward.

"Ronald, what are you doing?" Eileen screamed.

Her long, dark brown hair was now disheveled. She vaguely knew what Ronald was going to do. Her pretty face was filled with sadness, and her orange, jewel-like eyes were also misty with tears.

"Get out of here..." Ronald uttered in a low voice.

His body landed mid-air on a burning tree.

"Neither of us will survive if we're together, but if you're alone, they won't be able to catch you," Ronald said quietly.

"I'll lure Ramon and those powerful Magic Creature here. You take the opportunity to escape. Hurry, or it will be too late."

"I'm entrusting the task of reviving Jello to you."

Ronald took a deep breath and stared straight ahead.

The thick black fog obscured his vision, but he could sense that Ramon would emerge from there.

"By the way, before killing Qin Chu, it's best to torture him for a while first..." A twisted smile appeared on Ronald's face, "Don't let him die so easily, that damned bastard. If it weren't for him, Karthus and Benson wouldn't be dead."

It's truly a pity I couldn't personally teach that Second-Generation Hero a lesson.

Seeing that Eileen was still standing there, Ronald's expression grew even colder. "Get out of here. Reviving Jello is the most important thing."

Eileen clenched her teeth, stared at Ronald for two seconds, then gritted her teeth and vanished from her spot in an instant. Just as Ronald had said, this was her only chance to escape. While Ramon still had a large number of Magic Creature here, she could break through the surrounding blockade and make her escape.

It's simply impossible to bring Ronald along.

The instant the figure disappeared, two crystal-clear tears rolled down her cheeks from the corners of her eyes.

Could this be the first time the bond between the members of the Hero's Party has been shown?

That's really touching.

Watching Eileen's figure disappear before him, Ronald let out a long sigh of relief. Now, all he had to do was fight with all his might to stop Ramon and the numerous Magic Creature demons here.

This is indeed quite troublesome.

However, you will witness the power of a noble young master.

Clenching his teeth, Ronald tried to charge at Ramon.

But at that moment, Ronald suddenly remembered something very important.

He should have given the fragments of Jello's Soul Fragment to Eileen so Eileen could take them with her; they represented the culmination of his long and arduous work here.

If I can't take this thing out of here, wouldn't my death have been in vain?

"Wait, Eileen, come back..."

Chapter Four is here, and there will be another chapter around 8:30.

Chapter 200 Ronald's Doomsday

(Please vote for me!)

"Eileen, come back quickly!"

Ronald was yelling at the top of his lungs.

Actually, the scene where Ronald and Eileen parted ways was quite touching.

To ensure his teammates' survival, he faced the ferocious Magic Creature alone, creating an opportunity for Eileen to escape.

However, Ronald's shout completely ruined the originally touching atmosphere, turning it into a farce, making Ronald's dashing image look like that of a clown.

Even more ridiculously, no matter how much Ronald shouted, Eileen never appeared.

The speed of the Thief Saint was astonishing, especially without Ronald's burden. He vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye, and no matter how much Ronald shouted, he couldn't hear him.

For a moment, Ronald looked as dejected as a defeated rooster, appearing extremely disheveled.

One is a handsome young nobleman, and the other is a petite and adorable girl; it's a classic hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenario. Under normal circumstances, the young nobleman might suddenly unleash his inner power, activating limitless strength to reverse the entire battlefield and win the heart of the beauty.

Unfortunately, Ronald didn't have that ability.

And it's absolutely impossible for Eileen to fall in love with Ronald, because in Eileen's heart there is only Jello.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

With heavy footsteps, a huge figure broke through the layers of smoke and appeared in front of Ronald.

It's Ramon.

His enormous eyes were filled with mockery as he grinned maliciously at Ronald: "Young swordsman, what's wrong with you? You've become so disheveled?"

"After letting that pretty girl leave, you actually called for her to come back. Were you scared, or did you regret it?"

Ronald stared at Ramon with eyes full of hatred, then he was surprised to find that a large group of powerful Magic Creature were following behind Ramon.

Ramon did not send any of his men to hunt down Eileen.

This situation also made Ronald's mind sink deeper and deeper.

If Ramon sends his men to hunt down Eileen, Eileen's stealth abilities are extremely strong and she won't be caught so easily. At the same time, she can also lure away many experts, leaving Ronald to face Ramon alone, and he will still have a chance to turn the tables.

But now, Eileen has left.

All the masters had gathered in front of him, forming a circle around him.

Ronald has no way to escape.

They didn't even have the slightest chance of surviving.

"What are you looking at? You don't think I'm going to hunt down that girl, do you? She's Thief Saint. I know how difficult it is to hunt down a Thief Saint."

"Don't mistake me for a fool."

"If the members of the Hero's Party can capture just one person, that would be a tremendous achievement. If they split into two groups, they might end up empty-handed."

"No matter what, it's better to grab one of them first."

Seeing Ronald's shocked expression, Ramon felt smug and spoke eloquently, showcasing his intelligence in front of the many Magic Creature.

A group of Magic Creature nodded repeatedly, loudly praising how wise and intelligent the Seventh Prince was.

In fact, these were all suggestions from Candice.

Catching just one is enough; that achievement will cover up everything else. Even if one escapes, no one will care. Besides, there aren't many Magic Creature that know of Eileen's existence.

Ronald stared wide-eyed in disbelief, unable to comprehend how the seventh prince, known for his muscular physique and simple mind, had become so intelligent.

Was this guy never always so Greed, wanting it all? When did he change his ways?

"It seems I've said enough to you, it's time to send you on your way." Ramon's massive body stood before Ronald like a mountain.

Suddenly he raised his enormous foot and stomped directly at Ronald's head.

Even without relying on its powerful Magic Power, this Magic Creature prince, who fights purely with its physical body, possesses almost invincible destructive power.

A huge shadow suddenly loomed overhead.

Ronald gritted his teeth, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and leaped into the air.
