Situation at the Battlefield..

When the aura disappeared, the people around the Crimson Mage Academy finally heaved a sigh of relief. The fear they felt earlier was the most scariest thing happened to them, they were suffocated just by that aura.

The people outside the Crimson Ranking Stadium was still on guard, even though the explosions stopped, they still don't know what happened inside. All they know was Yujiro became a Hybrid. some couldn't endure anymore and slowly walked towards the stadium.

But before they can even get near, An old man with a weird face suddenly appeared in front of them.

His height is 165 cm and he is thin so he looks weak, his robe is quite messy and he has a long beard. he is the principal of Crimson Mage Academy, Ulric.

Seeing the principal, the students were surprised. normally, this person don't go outside. they can only see him if there was an event or announcement. but now he was standing in front of them.

some were ecstatic seeing the legendary principal, while some were nervous because they know something bad happened if the principal was forced to make a move.

While they were in shocked, Ulric spoke.

"Can somebody tell me what happened?"

His voice was filled with mana, It was a thunderous voice that struck the surroundings,

when the students heard it, they felt like their ears were about to explode. They woke up from their senses and quickly told him what happened. his voice that instilled fear into the hearts of others. the students couldn't help but shiver down their spine.

Ulric, who was listening to them, suddenly frowned his eyebrows. he couldn't believe what he was hearing right now. while he was listening, the elders of the academy came. they were curious about what was happening too. they walked towards the principal but they didn't make any loud noise because they saw the principal was frowning. they all felt a cold sweat on their backs when they saw it.

"Yujiro became a Hybrid?!?!" Ulric glared at the students.

All the students lowered their heads in fear, the elders tried to calm him down. after a moment of calming down, Ulric said.

"The students around the stadium leave now and make sure no one will know about this matter! If I found out that someone spread what happened here..."

After saying this, a terrifying pressure swept across all of the people present. the people present began to sweat and quiver in fear. They just nod and left quickly. because of fear, they couldn't utter a single word. they just want to get away as fast as possible.

After all the students left, Ulric looked at the Elders of the academy and said.

"Let's go in, prepare for battle. Yujiro became a Hybrid and it will be troublesome if we don't kill him quickly."

The Elders didn't nod right away, they hesitated. Ulric frowned when he saw their response. he was about to say something when an Elder suddenly spoke.

"Is it really okay to kill Yujiro? His father won't agree with this if he knew what happened".

Ulric let out a cold expression and said.

"It was a taboo to sell your soul to the Devil or else you will become an enemy of the Light Faction"

"Yujiro became a Hybrid, It's up to me if I kill him or not, I'm the Principal! You think I'm afraid of his father huh?!?!"

The Elder who spoke, fell on his knees and beg. "I'm sorry Principal, please forgive me!"

As he beg, he was coughing blood. After a few breathes, He collapsed on the ground.

The other Elders gulped a mouthful of saliva when they saw this scene. They were terrified by what happened, even though they didn't know how the Principal did it, they were sure it was the principal.

While they were in shocked, Ulric spoke with a cold voice.

"Is there anyone who want to say something too?"

No one dared to speak or even make a noise, they were afraid they would be the next.

"Good! Let's go!"

Ulric and the Elders went inside the Crimson Ranking Stadium.

When they arrived at the platform, they were petrified when they saw the scene in front of them.

The stadium was beyond recognizable, The walls were shattered, the ground had many fissures and craters.

On the ground, they were six bodies lying down. the farthest one on the left, It was Caine, on the other side were Ivy and Veno and in the middle was Bulba, Lele and a young man wearing a red robe. they don't know who this man was. but base on his clothing he looked like a magician. not far away from them, they saw a body without a head. the head was on the other side of the stadium.

It was the body of Yujiro.

"What happened here?!?!"

They couldn't make sense of the situation, someone killed Yujiro who turned into a Hybrid but they don't know who. At first, they suspect Caine, but he looked like he was unconscious for a while now. they didn't suspected the F3 and Lele because they already know what they were capable of, and they were not a match for Yujiro who turned Hybrid.

The last person was this young man wearing a red robe, but base on what they see. he was too weak, he looked like a Normal Grade Magician. while they were in deep thoughts. Ulric commanded them and said.

"What are you all waiting for? take them to the Infirmary! we will asked them what happened when they recovered!"

"We will investigate who killed Yujiro, For now, Don't let anyone spread the news about this incident. Don't tell anyone that Yujiro died, If his father asked you, just tell him he was missing".

The Elders didn't delay any longer, they quickly took Caine, The F3 , Lele and The young man wearing a red robe to the Infirmary. As for Yujiro's body, Ulric turned it to dust to remove the evidence. Even though the Elders saw this, they didn't say anything and just do what the Principal told them to do.

After he burned the body, Ulric was just staring at the sky. no one knows what he was thinking.

While this was happening,

There was also a heavenly frightening event happening at the Battlefield.

-

Outside of Tower of Evil in the west side Battlefield, there was a huge ancient ship hovering in the air. This ship was extremely big, it was the length of ten miles. When it flew in the sky, it cast a frightening shadow on the ground.

The ancient ship resembled a mobile fortress. It absorbed and spat out Death Aura. The body of the ship was engraved with magical runes and formations that were moving continuously, emancipating the power of Evil. Without a doubt, this ship could not only fly in the sky, but it could also defend itself against Mage's attacks.

On this ancient ship, a black aura energy, along with an ancient devil aura, poured down freely without any intention of suppressing itself. The rolling power of the devil aura was felt by the people down below, even from afar.

The moment the ancient ship arrived at the Tower of Evil, the one thousand elite demon soldiers from the ship simultaneously roared, it was as powerful as a rolling tsunami that encompassed the entire west Battlefield. It deafeningly shook the ears of everyone below, and caused their blood to run wild!

Satanus, who was sitting on the throne while listening to his subordinate's reports, suddenly heard the roar. he was shocked because the roar caused his blood to run wild, He let out his mana to defend against the pressure. when he recovered, he was having a cold sweat, he looked at his subordinates and saw them experienced the same thing. they were confused what happened.

Belze who was on the side asked Satanus with fear.

"What's going on? this is the first time something like this happened".

Satanus who was flabbergasted couldn't answer Belze, He was just staring at the floor, thinking of something when suddenly,

"Satanus, someone has come to Tower of Evil. Are you not gonna receive him?"

A voice was heard in the sky, It was like a thunder that struck them down.

In a flash, Satanus and Belze along with other subordinates disappeared.

When they appeared, they were already on the top of Tower of Evil.

when they looked up in the sky, They saw the giant ancient ship.

They saw a flag on the ancient ship that was embroidered with the word "War", and they couldn't help but darken their expression! At the Dark Faction, High Ranking Devils that could have the word "War" on their ship like this could be counted on one's fingers. Currently, they didn't have to look; they already knew who the person was.

"Devil Prince Ifrit!"

A Devil Prince whose title was bestowed upon by the Evil God, as well as one of the strongest Royalty within the Dark Faction. Even though he was young, He had accomplished many remarkable military achievements. At the frontier of the Battlefield, there were countless people that were died by his hands!

Devil Prince Ifrit was not only a brave high ranking devil of the dark faction, but he was also a renowned ruthless character.
