Getting Closer (16)

As a part of the demonic forest, a celebration is taking place.

At the third level, soldiers, sects leaders and princes of empires were arrested by the trap of the Grand Imperial Prince, which was intended to temporarily arrest those people.

And while this was happening, one level up. At the fourth level the Grand Imperial Prince was heading towards the fall of the white sword.

However, his arrival at the fourth level served him to realize that the demonic beasts at the fourth level are worse than at the third level. They are even more frantic.

Because the beasts on the fourth level are much stronger than those on the third level, the Grand Imperial Prince decided to enter and leave the fourth level without making a big fuss, and for that reason he asked the 25 elite wizards of the empire to cast invisibility magic and silent shadow magic.

The invisibility spell serves to make people who have been hit by this spell invisible for a period of time.

The magic of the silent shadows serves to decrease the noise of the steps and the voices of those affected, and with that they can be more like ghosts or shadows.

After 12 minutes walking towards the fall of white light.

The Grand Imperial Prince ended up encountering several demonic beasts, however these beasts were alone and did not pose a great threat.

The demonic beasts that saw or felt them, had the ability to ignore certain spells because of the advantages that their lineage or race gave them.

Right after killing the fifth demonic beast that looked like a snake with gray scales like the night. The Grand Imperial Prince asked his greatest subordinate.

"How long before we reach the sword?"

With a touch of elegance and power the Grand Imperial Prince asked Grand Duke Kirian Qinju.

•••••

In the Empire of the Grand Imperial Prince there are several nobles from low to high levels, however the highest echelons of the Empire are the Emperor, the Grand Imperial Prince, the leader of the religion and then comes the Grand Dukes, who are 3 families who originally helped the founder to found the Empire. However, 17 years ago these 3 Grand Dukes became 4 Grand Dukes, and this happened because of the great contribution of the Kirian family, who from a very low position of the nobility went to the top of the nobility, and this was only possible because of of the negotiations between the Grand Imperial Prince and the Emperor.

And because of the Grand Imperial Prince helping the Kirian family, the family sent Qinju the second strongest in command and abilities in this Grand Prince Imperial mission. And because of the countless trips that Qinju and the Grand Imperial Prince had, the two became very close.

For this reason, the Grand Imperial Prince usually gives orders to Qinju to pass on the others and the Grand Imperial Prince also asks Qinju for opinions on several matters.

Shortly after the Grand Imperial Prince asked the Grand Duke of the Kirian family, he answered in a friendly and helpful voice.

"My Prince, according to some of our informants, we are getting close to where the sword fell, according to our estimates it will take us about 5 minutes to get close enough to see the sword."

After Qinju Kirian spoke, the Grand Imperial Prince was contemplated and thoughtful for the reason that a sword fell just in the fourth level of the demonic forest and made some demonic beasts become berserkers.

After thinking more about the white sword, the Grand Imperial Prince asked Kirian Qinju.

"The did fools from other empires and sects fall into our trap?"

The Grand Imperial Prince was confident in his traps armed around the third level, however unforeseen events can always occur and as a result he asked his subordinate.

And Qinju Kirian replied.

"Yes, your majesty we managed to catch them in our trap, according to our estimates we will have enough time to pick up the sword and then leave, without the people of the Great Sects and the other Empires being able to break free, of course there won't be much time left, already that we cannot kill them or seriously injure them, the trap will only serve to delay them a little, however this time will be enough for us."

After hearing what his subordinate said, the Grand Imperial Prince sketched an evil smile on his face, at the thought of winning the sword and because of that, he could come even closer to taking the position of Emperor of his older brother.
