Chapter 304 Reverse Stanza

The Red Dragon Sword was insane.

I could feel its immense fire energy just bursting out of its body and into the fire dragon in a roiling flood of intense anger.

It completely disregarded its energy consumption and dumped everything at me in a wild attack.

My entire body was shrouded in temperatures probably upwards of several thousand degrees!

Thankfully my lightning shield was no pushover, and it resisted the burning heat with its own crackling energy.

Jejebebeww!

Fire and Lightning clashed together in a horrifying mesh!

"Louisa." Came Prince Wilford's stern voice.

Princess Louisa was probably trying to check on my progress when Prince Wilford forced her to answer his nonverbal but still extremely clear question.

But I couldn't continue to pay attention to them from that moment on because to my horror, the Red Dragon Sword trembled lightly and suddenly shot out to pierce my heart!

The surprise attack pierced through my lightning shield which was being focused to resist the fire energy.

The tip Red Dragon Sword crashed onto my skin and then started to exert a tremendous pressure that was startlingly painful to me!

"Ouch! Hey that hurts you stupid sword!" I shouted with all of my strength.

Prince Harris' mouth twitched slightly.

True, I was in pain, which was something new for me after so long and the first time that day.

But that was hardly what he wanted to see which the massive explosion from his Red Dragon Sword!

My hand shot to the sword blade and gripped it tightly to pull it out.

Alas, instead of pulling it out, I only managed to get my hand injured as well.

Vroooo!!!

In a final great burst of power, the blade finally broke flesh over the skin of my chest and poured a tremendous amount of fire energy into my body!!

"Aaaaahhhhhhh!!!!" At long last, I did what Prince Harris wanted me to do and gave out a massive scream of the purest of pain!

"Justin!!!" Princess Louisa screamed hysterically.

Instantly, my three bloodline energies activated from deep within me to meet the invading fire energy in battle.

Dark, Light and Lightning energies surged forward like an inexorable tide of power and clashed with the savage fire energy which was destroying everything it touched.

A massive energy battle took place mere inches above my beating heart!

The frontlines swirled in a fearsome display of lights which nobody could see, but which took my very life and placed it under contest.

"F**k!" I couldn't help but curse vehemently. "This Red Dragon Sword is so powerful?? Is it at the Platinum Grade??"

My body had absorbed so many white mechs and even golden mechas that its physical strength at exertion was hovering around the golden mecha level.

If allowed to digest the latest spoils including the mothership, I could probably walk into a full blown golden mecha nuclear explosion and be unharmed.

But at that moment with most of Arabella's strength focused on digesting, I was depending mostly on my body's inherent strength, and it's defensive capacity turned out to be lacking compared to the Red Dragon Sword's offensive power!

BA DUMP!

BA DUMP!!

At that moment, Arabella sluggishly directed a sliver of her red energy to join in the swirling energy battle.

"Devour." Arabella said softly.

"Huh? You can devour fire energy?" I asked her in surprise.

But she was not able to answer me at all.

Her red energy had taken the form of a magnificent, glorious monster I had never seen before my entire life.

It was roughly humanoid in shape, but that was where the similarity with human beings ended.

There were three pairs of resplendent wings on her back, and her face was definitely alien but mesmerizingly beautiful.

Her arms were folded back as though she was in diving position.

Buaaahhhhh!!!!

The three pairs of wings behind her suddenly grew very wide and in one fluid motion, covered all four energies still embroiled in battle.

Schleb!!!!!

In one fell swoop, all four energies disappeared!!

"What??" I shouted in shock. "Arabella? What on earth are you doing??"

But Arabella had fallen into deep and forced hibernation as she got completely overloaded with things to digest.

Thankfully, her intervention quickly ended the energy in an anti climactic fashion.

Having dumped all of its power in that final attack to kill me, the Red Dragon Sword was finally drained of energy!

Whoosh!!

My lightning energy surged once more and gained control of my body and the sword.

"HUAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" I shouted triumphantly.

"WHAAAATTTT?" Prince Harris shouted in shock.

That was exactly what I was waiting to hear.

But the next sound that entered my ears were definitely not.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" A panicked scream from Princess Louisa rang out near endlessly!

"Huh?" I glanced at the handsome Prince Harris with an extremely foul expression on his face and the screaming Princess Louisa who was covering her eyes and facing the other way.

"Wear this." Prince Wilford tossed a set of Royal robes at me.

"Why? I alrea- OH SHIT!" I shouted as I realized that I was completely buck naked!

I was so focused on the energy battle within me that I did not realize when Arabella devoured all the energies at war, she also devoured my lightning energy robes!

"Damn youuuu Arabellaaa!!" I cursed in my mind as I scrambled to quickly put the robe on.

Prince Wilford's Royal robe was, as expected, a wardrobe masterpiece.

As soon as I touched it and put it on, I knew one thing was for sure.

"There's no way in hell I am giving this back to him." I thought as the robe shrank to fit my body perfectly.

It was a simple black robe, but I could sense that there were several nanotech embedded in it which served in a defensive capacity.

And of course, being a Prince of the Empire, there was no spying tech on it. My repeated checks with my resonance made very sure of that.

"Ehm! Thank you for the robe, Prince Wilford. You are a very generous person. Very generous! In fact, your family is full of generous people! Why, your brother just gave me a very, very USEABLE treasure sword! See?" I swung the completely silent and obedient Red Dragon Sword around to show him that I had, very safely and totally, gained dominance over it.

Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh.

The Red Dragon Sword was an excellently made weapon.

It was extremely sharp, perfectly balanced, and despite its unusually thin blade, was also perfectly weighted.

The only issue I had with it in the beginning was of course its insane resident spirit.

That fire dragon was completely nuts.

But anyway, its energy was completely spent, and it did not resist when I injected my powerful lightning energy into it to claim it as my own.

The foul expression on Prince Harris' face turned impossibly fouler, and he immediately turned around and stomped away.

And that time, he did not turn back.

Prince Wilford glanced at the rapidly receding figure of his younger brother and merely shook his head very slightly.

It was definitely not the first time he had seen his brother so pissed off. But it was the first time that his angry outburst had failed to achieve its objective.

Probably the first time that the angry outburst of a royalty had failed to achieve anything and even backfire completely on him.

There is a first time for everything of course. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

And poor Prince Harris just had to be born at the same time period as me, a once in a millenium, no, once in a million milleniums freak of nature.

Prince Wilford turned and tapped the still screaming Princess Louisa on her shoulders.

"He's dressed. Let's go." He said in his calming voice.

Princess Louisa's screaming stopped abruptly and she turned around slowly with her hands still covering her face.

And then she spread her fingers slightly to allow her eyes to peek through it, and was about to quickly close them again when she froze.

She dropped her hands suddenly and stared blankly at me.

"All hail the Black Dragon. All hail the Black Dragon. All hail the Black Dragon. The tribes shall come with their tributes. They shall lay priceless treasures at his feet. And together they shall cry out… All hail the Black Dragon!"

"Reverse stanza prophecy??" Prince Wilford's jaw literally dropped at that moment in an extremely rare show of emotion.

He grabbed Louisa's hand and checked it for runes.

"Three runes ready? And a fourth one forming!!" He could not believe his eyes.

And his ears of course.

A real prophecy had just been created right in front of his eyes, by his own sister, no less.

"What's a reverse stanza prophecy?" I couldn't help myself but ask.

Prince Wilford turned around to look at me with a sharp glare.

I instantly regretted asking him that question at such a sensitive time.

But to my surprise, he very strangely and unexpectedly gave me a short and simple answer.

"It is the final prophecy of a given topic." He said softly. "Everything that the Royal Family needs to know about the Black Dragon… is now complete."𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢
