Munivit Anima Chapter 7

Chapter 7 Escape

After the priestess entered the noble's mansion i began to make my own move. First, I need to take out the guards, i first thought of making them faint, but right now the strength of this body is incapable of doing that so one way is to kill them one by one, slashing and stabbing their neck is a lot easier than hitting them at the back of their neck, but here's the problem, there are currently ten guards outside the noble's mansion and if i suddenly stab one of their friends i will surely get caught or even worse killed  before i even charge to another one.

"Guess I'll go back to get some useful items."

I began running to my mother's mansion and after i went inside and  took a knife in the kitchen, wrapped it with my handkerchief then hid it under my coat.

"If i remember correctly my mother hid the fire orbs in this cabinet." Fire orbs are the one we use to make fire for cooking and other things that involve cooking. After i opened the cabinet i took seven small orbs put it in my pocket. Right now, i'm sure that my dear mother is busy reading some documents in her room, but i must get out quickly before she get out of her room.

I closed my eyes, then try remembering all of my knowledge from my past life... then i began to remember something
'Killing someone doesn't make it evil, sometimes its necessary to kill for the sake of the greater good and sometimes you have to be evil to to reach a better outcome for everyone.'
I began to remember the things they taught us when i was just a cadet in the military. Then i opened my eyes.


"I'll treat this one as a mission." I began to sprint, then after a few minutes I reached the noble's mansion.

I hid my presence and put my back against the wall while taking out some of the fire orb, then sneak a peek at the guards i decided to throw three of the orbs to the biggest guy since he's the easiest one to hit. After the orbs broke into his armor, he was immediately engulfed by flames, although it would only last for a few seconds and wont do any much damage, it's good enough to alarm them.

"Shit! Who the hell was the one who threw that!?" The big guy yelled while taking out his burning clothes.

"Let's find the idiot who threw that. It must be one of our colleagues who hates you." One of his friends said it while smiling.

"Ramos! Stay here in case Lord Ressy needs something."

"Eh? Me alone? He'll get angry when he finds out that you guys left you post."

"We'll take care of it quickly! Just shut up and follow my order! and it will be easier to find him if we spread out so i need everyone, damn it! I bet Drion is the one who did this to me that guy is pretty upset at me because i dated her sister a few days ago." The big guy yelled at him angrily.

The nine guards are beginning to spread out then started dashing at every direction, while sensing their presence i hid myself behind the walls and when they're getting near me I go to another wall and hid myself there. A few moments later I felt that they passed through my location without noticing me.

"Then i have to take care of the guard that was left behind." I walked quietly to the guard
while i removed the handkerchief on the knife, then hang it unto my waist while my coat is hiding it and after i reached his side i tugged his sleeves.

"Hey, mister?"

"Huh? How?" He was surprised because he wasn't able to sense me, but he managed to regain his composure and ask me.

"What are you doing here prince? You should go back to your mother now she must be getting worried about you"

Ignoring his words i smiled at him and spoke.

"Mister lend me your ears.. I'll tell you some secret that i discovered...let me reached your head, it's embarrassing to say it out loud so i'll just whisper it to you"

"Eeehhh... So you want to tell me your secret huh... What is it?" He slowly lowered his head for me to reach the i put me mouth near his ear and said.

"You should worry more about yourself rather than me" Immediately i draw out the knife and slashed it into her neck, then stabbed her neck on the back, Blood draws out from his neck while he was dumbfounded trying to grasp what just happened.

"Ahr! Aaaah! Kraa!" He tried to hold her neck in panic to stop the bleeding and since he's busy trying to stop the bleeding i took out one of the fire orbs and put it inside her mouth.

"Sorry, but i can't let any witnesses to live." After saying those words, his mouth suddenly engulfed into flames burning everything inside and stabbed her neck one more time to deliver the kill blow.

The guard fell down and died. Without wasting any time I pulled his body inside the mansion, then cleaned the blood outside and locked the door, since there is no window on this floor his friends won't be able to peek from the outside.

"Now, where the hell are they?" I quickly look around the first floor the i reached the room near the kitchen then i noticed the subordinates of the Priestess Fox.

"You're the kid from earlier... What are you doing here?" One of the Beastkins asked me in surprise. I decided to give out a mixture of truth and lies because it will be a pain to explain them everything.

"I am Flint Entros The 38th Prince of the Empire. I am here to say some message from the Emperor to Lord Ressy, So if you'll excuse me, i'll get inside now " I walked towards the rectangular trap door and opened it.

"But..Hey-.. wai-" All of them were shocked and felt some fear when i told them that i'm the son of the emperor and before one of them finish talking i entered the basement.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While going down the basement, I suddenly heard some voice.

"....For now, get naked."

"If you won't do anything, i'll get my guards and kill all your kin here instead of using the master's armlet to punish you...."

"I-i understand."

I saw the Priestess Fox and before she even remove one piece of her clothes and began to speak.

"Did you fail to find a girlfriend or a wife when you were younger and decided to resort in this kind of thing?"

""Wh-!?"" Both  of them were surprised by that voice, then quickly looked at me.

"You were the kid earlier" Uttered softly by the Priestess.

"Prince..... Flint, what are you doing here?" The noble asked me in a low voice.

"Wait.. Prince!?" Not just the Priestess everyone in the basement were shocked.

"Okay, listen to me, Lord Ressy. As the Prince of this Empire, i command you to grant the priestess their freedom and escort them outside to ensure their safety." After i finished my sentence everyone became even more shock.

"H-have you gone mad! You might be the prince, but you're just a kid and even the first prince never gave me a ridiculous  order like releasing any slaves."

"So are you going to disobey me?" I looked at him in the eye while releasing a bit of killing intent, He immediately felt the heaviness of my words, but he didn't even falter.

"Ha! So what if i disobey you, are gonna tell me to your father? Do you think he'll take your side, He hates other races and treat them inferior to us, I don't know what the hell came into your mind, but a kid won't able to stop me!" He began shouting at me angrily while starting to walk near me.

"Hey, wai-" The Priestess was about to stop him but i shouted at her

"Shut and stay there!"

The Priestess was surprised, but she stopped her words after i shouted at her. I began to take out the remaining fire orb, then threw it at him, his clothes began to burn the i took out my knife and stabbed his knees.

"Ahhhhh" Surprised by the flames and the pain from his wounds, he can do nothing but cry in pain.

"Hmm.. Now where is it...." While he's holding his wounded knee, look at both his arms to find the Master's armlet.

"Ahh.. There it is..." The master's armlet is on his left arm. I dashed towards him the stabbed his hands that were trying to stop me and when I was taking out the armlet he tried to punch me but i was able to dodge it and gave him another stab into his arm.

"Finally!" I was able to take out the armlet and quickly make a distance from him.

"Hey old man, take him down!" I shouted to the Old looking Beastkin who's currently watching us from the side.

"Y-yes, " Still can't believe from what's happening, he quickly put down the noble.

Then the Priestess  looked at me.

"Why?" I decided to ignore her words and said

"Heal that damn noble i need him so that everyone of you can safely get out of here."

".... Yes" She hesitated for a few seconds, but she began to realize that they can't get out of her alive without my help.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the noble was healed, i gave the master's armlet to he priestess and she was able to release herself. I took the Armlet and the collar from her then walked towards the noble who's currently sitting and surrounded by the beastkin he enslaved.

"Hold him!" One the beast kin hold his both arms, then I quickly put the collar into his neck.

"If you think slavery is a good idea, then why don't you become a slave yourself." I smiled coldly at him.

"You bastard!" After he realized that he became slave, he became completely angry.

"Now, as your master i command you to change your clothes, then relieve the guards outside of their duty and by the don't forget to put a cover into your collar or else ...."  Taking the meaning of my words he quickly gets some new clothes and went to the guards outside, of course i followed him just in case but i'm hiding behind the door so the guards won't see me, even though he saw the corpse of one of his guards it didn't even bother him.

"You can now go and rest for now. I have no need for guards right now" He talked to the guards who just returned from finding someone.

"Is that so?.... by the way Ramos ran away from his post seems like he went again to the Gambling Den" said by the big guard.

"I see. we'll see you tomorrow then"

"Yes sir." The guards immediately dispersed and by the way Ramos is the guy that i killed.
