Not only was the Blood Prince and his confidant different in terms of appearance, their overall demeanor was unfamiliar too. Usually, the Prince would behave arrogantly and would definitely not wield a sword and wear armor. Instead, he liked to behave like actual nobility, therefore, upon witnessing him jumping around and slaying Pests, Bin was perplexed.
After some contemplation, he decided not to reveal himself. That might well be the Blood Prince, but it’s not the same person. Put simply, this one has yet to experience the calamity that struck Dranxia and has yet to travel to Earth.
From what Bin had gathered thanks to the Prince’s vague answers, the latter was neither a native of Earth nor Dranxia. He was from a completely different star, though his resolution on bringing salvation to this ‘star’ was a bit
Bin loitered in the gloomy laboratory while Tanna was experimenting and inspecting the bound Pest. She was careful not to kill it but the way she brutally hammered its head to knock it unconscious was a strange and slightly scary sight.After half an hour, there was a knock on the door, which was something Tanna expected. She responded with a yell, thus making the guests push the door open and enter. There were two of them; Two young men dressed in scholarly attires, they acted awkwardly and froze in place once they spotted the Pest.“What are they doing here?”Bin stood up and glared at Lenna and Arbert. Both were stricken with fear and didn’t even pay attention to him.“I didn’t call you here
Tanna was clearly not pleased with Emir’s unwelcomed visit, nevertheless, she did not kick him out. She spared a fleeting glance at the High Scholar and his company before resuming her work and acting as if they did not exist.“Do you have any idea what you’re doing? And who are these people?”Emir quickly noticed Arbert and Lenna, who stood a bit to the back. However, he paid more attention to the tall man standing right next to the chained Pest. Not only was he unfamiliar, he also didn’t look like a Scholar, which could only mean one thing.“You’ve broken one too many roles, Scholar Tanna!”As he said that, Emir was about to end this farce by arresting all those invo
“What’s going on here?”The leader of the new arrivals was a graceful woman with long brown hair and sharp eyes. Bin, who was peeking through the wall, immediately recognized her, though he did not deign reveal himself, at least not for now.Elmina Valkyrie, one of the most extinguished scholars in all of Dranxia and an esteemed figure in the Scho0lar Committee.With her own remote, she ordered the golems to cease moving then glared at the disheveled Emir.“By what right do you cause havoc in the building research and disturb the work of your former colleagues?”With several High Scholars backing her, Emir could not properly explain himself. Looking wrong
Although Bin was, at first, opposed to listening to Elmina, he quickly changed his mind.Since Tanna did not have any urgent need for him, he chose to follow Elmina to learn about this praised High Scholar and also check the golden towers, which were dubbed as ‘Towers of Knowledge’.“Lead the way.”Bin soon appeared in the corridor, but he did not remove the wall of sand. It won’t be as sturdy with him away, but it should protect Tanna from any one seeking trouble.“I’m very pleased that you decided to cooperate, Bin.”To demonstrate her friendliness, Elmina offered a handshake only for her hand to be left hanging. Bi
“Why did you go on your own?!”Jasmine was furious, her eyes coldly glaring at Aldren. He managed to escape from Cara’s cult thanks to the sudden appearance of a Rift. However, he was grievously injured and had to be hospitalized for two whole months.Instead of letting him rest, Jasmine barged into his hospital room and incessantly reproached his reckless actions.Although she was higher than him in terms of status, Aldren did not back down. He stared back at her and retorted,“Then was I supposed to wait for gracious old Jasmine to take care of it? For the past five years, you’ve been telling us that you’ll take care of it. They are abducting civilians and sacrificing them!&rdqu
Having had enough of talking, the Blood Prince, named Jasbin, unsheathed his steel sword and charged at Bin.Although the distance between them was relatively large, the youth crossed it in no time. Furthermore, he did not hold back his power, a raging gale of Mana accompanied his weapon.Bin frowned and raised his hand, swiftly channeling his Mana and raising multiple walls of sand. Alas, the sand was obliterated upon contact and the sword soon reached Bin’s body. However, it was finally stopped by a solid pentagon-shaped shield of light.Jaskil grinned, pulled his sword for a split second then swept horizontally, though that did not change the result. Bin’s shield moved instantaneously, protecting him from all sides. Within the City of Scholars, there were dozens of those eye-catching golden spires; They had different shapes and sizes and their one similarity is how they constantly pulsate large amounts of Mana in and outside of them.After dealing with the Blood Prince, Bin headed back to the city and started his attempt in sneaking into the Towers of Knowledge. He could not target the large ones as they were heavily guarded and trying to break in would garner a lot of unwanted attention and potentially ruin everything. Therefore, he set his sight on the smaller towers, the ones near the city walls.They too, were protected by a couple of guards and several identification devices. However, they lacked the fortified magical shields found on the rest. For Bin, neither the guards nor the integrated identification devices were a problem, only Life as A Servant Chapter 445 : The Might of Light (2)
Bin continued going to the upper floors, but his progress significantly decreased due to the multi-layered barriers. To make matters worse, they were getting more powerful and intricate, thus taking more time to imitate their Mana Frequency. One of the rooms resembled a storage, filled to the brim with crates and boxes. Of course, he inspected the contents of the crates but, even after that, he could not understand their purpose due to his limited knowledge. Most of the crates had large bottles filled with a colorless and liquid that stuck to the transparent glass. Bin took two with him and continued his search, which didn’t bear any fruit for the next twenty or so minutes. At some point, on the 7th floor, he was met with a particularly tricky barrier. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to go through it, therefore, he
