Rank 2 Crocodile

Outside the city, the three figures who were hiding in the shadows were stunned.

"It has been an hour." The fox-like man said.

"What the f*** is this. Normal Advancements to the Official Knight rank only last around half an hour. It has already been a whole hour, and that knight in training is not dead. What is going on? How powerful is he going to be in the future?" the scarred man said

"We need to move the pan forward. I will lead the Mid-Tier Rank 2 magical beast to the city and stall Zack and his 3 disciples. Alan, go and kill that advancing knight. We cannot have a figure like him surviving in Zack's city. After that, go ahead and cause as much damage and chaos within the city, but make sure to escape within 20 minutes of entering" the old man said as he looked at the scarred man. Then, this old man looked over at the fox-like man and said,

"Turk, you enter the castle and retrieve the package and get out as quickly as possible. Once you do, send the signal. We will retreat as soon as your job is complete."

'Although I can keep Zack busy for a long time with the Rank 2 beast, he will inevitably kill it even with me showing fully. But this time I will not be fighting him head on, and can only aid the magical beast without Zack noticing. This will be tough' the old man thought to himself.

"Yes master Arthur."

"You fools! Don't say my name aloud!"

"Yes master." The Scarred man named Alan and the fox-like man named Turk bowed and dashed towards the city.

…

Back in the city, Zack was also shocked. Daron had been pressured by the laws of the world for a whole hour, and was still hanging on. However, what was more shacking was that the amount of pressure on him was at the level that Zack went through when he was advancing to the Intermediate realm.

It is said that the stronger the potential of the person, the more and the longer the world's laws would try to suppress them. And if one is able to surpass this suppression, they would grow up to become an unparalleled genius, no matter the race, be it Dragon, draconian, human, elf, or any other.. The second prince was one such genius and he faced pressure that was 2 times greater than what normal knights advancing to the official knight realm faced and had to undergo the process for almost 45 minutes.

However, Daron was on a completely other level. Although most of his talent could be explained by his bloodline, such talent would be terrifying even for the legendary dragons themselves, who had vanished from the continent along with the high elf clan had vanished mysteriously.

He had been facing the pressure that was nearly 10 times the amount a normal knight in training would have to face when advancing to Rank 6. This was the pressure that an official knight at Rank 10 would face when trying to advance to Rank 11 Intermediate knight.

And he had being doing this for a whole hour!

After another 5 minutes, Zack suddenly sensed something from outside the city and cursed in his mind.

'So Fals' guess turned out to be true. But why is it coming here right now?'

After a brief moment of hesitation, Zack called over Fals and told him to take care of Daron while handing him the little puppy that was continuously growling at the unknown people who were holding him.

Then, he took Grey and went towards the source of the energy, while leaving Bob, the strongest among his disciples in charge of the city.

Fals also noticed the changed appearance of Daron, and since he had seen its effect before he just ignored it, and was more worried about the insane pressure he was facing.

At this moment, Zack arrived outside the city walls and noticed an extremely large Magical beast. It was a 20-meter tall and 50-meter-long lizard that would have had an incredibly strong resemblance to a crocodile if Daron was present. However, its legs were almost 10 meters in length, contributing to nearly half its height. It's mouth was huge, and two long tusks that extended form inside its mouth and went up 2 metes into the air.

From the energy it was emitting, it was clearly a Rank 2 magical beast.

Boom!
