Revenge of the Son of the Nobles

Chapter 33: The Communicator

Theodore Edgard Khalinos, the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Vasilius, was a person with great fighting talent and capable magic abilities. Because few people who can use magic, can master middle magic alone is considered great. That is what this Crown Prince is going through.

But since entering the Academy, he who used to be praised as a talented genius, had to feel the bitterness of inferiority.

Actually he was included in the top five strongest disciples and occupied the fifth position. But still, being under someone else was painful for him.

Not to mention that he had to accept the fact that one of the people above him was the one who should be his subordinate when he was appointed King.

Adrian Cornivus Duterte, Alex Collin, Ferdinand Notaras Chevallaire, Alicia Arnaveu Brigantine. They are the names that always overshadowed him during his education in the Academy.

While all of the disciples were inducted into alliance warriors, he was one of the few Gold Class disciples who were not dispatched, which made him extremely frustrated. He felt so useless as a Crown Prince that many people had expected.

After that, he suddenly received special training, instructor Derrantes told him to run using his light power in the form of speed. "Run at your full speed around Leidenburg." That's what the instructor said at the time.

At that time, Theodore felt that instructor Derrantes was insane, the maximum distance he could travel at full speed was only about fifty meters. But he had him run around the city of Leidenburg on a trajectory of about eighty kilometers at full speed.

Those days feel like hell are being lived by our Crown Prince. He had originally only used a few percent of his strength to maintain stamina, but still, he felt extremely tormented by that training.

But in just one week, he was getting used to running around the city of Leidenburg, and he didn't even think he was doing it.

Knowing that Theodore did not use his full speed while training, or perhaps rather he had expected it. The instructor again asked him to increase his speed.

In just over half a month, he had already managed to circle the city of Leidenburg at a speed almost equal to his top speed before starting training.

What about the fastest speed at the moment? Certainly faster than before starting the practice, even the instructor was dumbstruck and speechless as Theodore demonstrated his full speed.

Within fifty meters, he was able to move at a speed that his eyes were unable to follow, creating shock waves along the path he was traveling.

After feeling his stamina getting stronger, he tried to run at full speed around the city of Leidenburg. With a trajectory of eighty kilometers, he was able to make one lap in just six minutes.

But because the speed was too extreme, the Academy had to bear the cost of repairs because Theodore's super-fast footsteps made the paving of the passage through which it was damaged.

Not long after, the Alliance party called him in for duty, but the task given to him was far different from what he had imagined.

"You will be the intermediary for our communications with the defense posts, the military headquarters, the alliance branch headquarters, and also the magic department." That is what one of the leaders of the alliance, Hazkiel Mustafa, said.

At first he felt unwelcome, his pride as the Crown Prince feeling hurt by that demeaning-sounding task.

But the alliance had anticipated this, so they contacted King Vasilius before summoning Theodore and explaining the role they would give Theodore.

Unfortunately, King Vasilius apparently agreed with their idea, so Theodore did not dwell at all. By force, he receives a military uniform specially designed for him and his first mission is to perform 'patrols' from the Western Continent Alliance Academy located in Leidengard to the Central Headquarters of the Western Continent Alliance located in Petra.

Using a steam train line to avoid an accident, Theodore managed to reach the Central Headquarters of the Alliance of the Western Continent located in Petra which was about eight hundred kilometers from Leidenburg in less than two hours, it was cut off at rest.

Although it felt bad for using the Crown Prince like a messenger bird, but now was not the time to bother about such things.

That way, our Crown Prince is officially appointed as Communicator, a position that has just been created specifically for him, along with special badges and special uniforms, even the Communication Department is under his control. Or maybe the opposite.

He was also the one who ascertained the condition of the southeastern defense post after coming reports regarding the attack there, he was also assigned to inspect the western and northern defense posts afterwards. Because Anderas was relatively close to Leidengard, the Alliance decided to make the southern outpost Theodore's last patrol rotation.

In this mission, he was assigned to bring a letter from the Central Headquarters of the Western Continent Alliance to the Department of Magic which was in a region in the north of the continent that did not include the territory of any country. There, he met Alfonso and his younger brother, Ferdinand.

Apparently, Marcus Goverzenon, the Magus Vasilius asked the Alliance to 'give' the two men as well as several others from the Academy as assistance to the Department of Magic.

But Marcus and Alfonso as well as some of the higher-ups of the Magic Department did not approve of the duel. They realized how powerful Theodore was at the moment, the duel risked harming Ferdinand who was one of the greatest assets the Magic Department had.

One of the goals of Theodore's mission this time was to conduct experiments, to find out if it was possible for someone to be at the same speed as Theodore.

Because of his plan, when at any time the Magic Department's help was needed at a location, they would send Theodore and some witches to that location.

This plan requires the help of Adrian, who will connect himself with Theodore and the witches using his Telekinesis powers, then Theodore would run with his power while the witches would create a shield that protected them from air friction that could be fatal.

It was for this reason that he was sent to the city of Sananta in the country of Anderas which was a southern defense outpost, to bring Adrian to the Department of Magic upon the Alliance's approval.

But upon arrival in the city of Sananta, instead of humans, but instead he met a bunch of silver dolls in the form of humans who have controlled the city.

The corpses of the soldiers were scattered in the city, along with the scrapings of silver-colored body parts from the scattered iron puppets, Theodore even recognized some of the soldiers who died because they were his comrades in the Academy.

"So this is the form of the devil? Why isn't it what I expected?" He stared at the horde of iron dolls that surrounded him.

In a split second, his body disappeared from where he stood. Then with a speed that could not be followed by the eyes, one by one the dolls were thrown in various directions, bumping into each other and falling, even exploding.

In less than a minute, he had already cleaned up all the dolls that were roaming the city. Leave a rumbling sound that resounds due to the air waves created due to its speed.

Not long after, as he was trying to track down the tracks of the surviving soldiers, William's figure suddenly appeared.

"Crown Prince?! You're the Crown Prince!"

William who was hovering in the air immediately landed and saluted on his knees. "Ugh, stop it, I'm now just an Alliance errand boy."

William seemed to not understand what Theodore meant, "No need to salute so, formalities are not at all necessary at this time," explained Theodore again.

Finally William stood up, "Are you with reinforcements?" He asked enthusiastically.

"What do you mean reinforcements? We haven't even received word of this mess."

"yes too. Then, how did you get here?" William asked again.

"What else? Of course running." Theodore smiled as he shrugged his shoulders.

William's mouth was open, "Where did you run from? Then how long did you run to arrive at this place?"

"From Petra to Anderas, maybe about five or six hours including a break."

William exclaimed furiously, but he immediately controlled himself and went back to being normal.

"That means that the sound of the explosion that I heard from you earlier came from you, you are indeed great ... Can beat all these dolls." William's tone changed slightly as he said his last sentence.

Theodore crossed his arms, "That's nothing, after all what does the number one do? Ah, by the way I'm here to take him to the Magic Department on the orders of the Alliance." The number one is Adrian.

William just kept quiet, it made Theodore confused.

"Maybe it's better if you see it for yourself. Come on, I'll take you to our basecamp."

Theodore feels that something bad happened to Adrian, but he's just sick of it. What is the worst thing that this person can experience? At most just critical for overusing his strength, there was no way he would die right?
