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

The crimson flame devoured everything. Not only the ashes of the ants were left behind. The crimson flame did not stop there. The attack went on to hit the destroyed blackwood city that now has become a nest and a ruin.

Boooooooom!

A huge mushroom cloud rose in the air in the cold night of winter. For the moment the bright light that came along with the explosion had lit up the entire sky making one feel as if it was day time.

The explosion was so big that everything in 10 km radius was shaking. The sound of the explosion was heard even from a long distance.

The attack was so strong that even the Mutant fire ants that were hiding inside their newly made nest also had died. The explosion had reached all the mutant fire ants under the ground. The shockwave was of the explosion was so fierce that it took out almost all of the mutant ant that currently inside their newly built nest which was beneath the Blackwood city.

『 Ding! You have killed a Peak 3rd-order.... 』

"This...." Ayden was stunned to his core. At this moment he cannot express just how shocked and frightened he was. Even though he can't give an exact estimation but he felt that the number of mutant fire ants that died from this attack had reached one million. It was not just the mutant fire ants, even the dead bodies of the humans and other races were burned to ashes meaning that all of the stored food that they worked hard to get was also gone.

At this moment Ayden didn't know what he should feel. Should he feel shocked at the fact that a mere beginner 3rd-order cultivator was powerful enough to launch such devastating attack? Should he feel angry at the fact that their newly built nest was destroyed? Should he feel angry at the fact that more than a million of his own race died right in front of his eyes? Or Should he feel regret and raged at the fact that all of their foods was gone?

While Ayden was remained standing while being stunned, Sylvie took opportunity of this golden chance. Although she was just as shocked as Noah was, she did not froze like Ayden. Instead to her this was the perfect opportunity to kill her enemy.

Just as the explosion ended, the ground started cracking. Under Sylvie's control, the earth began taking the shape of more than hundreds of earth spears. She then made each earth spear very tough and also very sharp. She did all this less than a second before launching her attack at Ayden.

Ayden being a beginner 5th-order felt something was being directed at him. At snapped out of his shocked state realizing that he was still in the middle of a battle. By the time he noticed the hundreds of earth spear, the spears were already 5 meters away from hitting his body.

'I can't dodge at such a close distance. Damn Bit**!' Ayden angrily cursed as he somehow tried to use his hands to cover his head but it was too late. Just a small moment of being off guarded had costed him to lose this battle.

Bang!

Ayden gritted his teeth in pain as some of the earth spears pierced his body. Fortunately he managed to protect his head. Unfortunately other than his head, almost every part of his body was pierced by a earth spear.

Noah snapped out of his shocked state seeing the beginner 5th-order mutant fire ant falling from the sky. He couldn't help but smile seeing the current miserable state of the beginner 5th-order mutant fire ant.

"Never thought I would lose because of being distracted for a few seconds." Even though every part of Ayden's body except for his head was pierced by earth spear, he still managed to live even after falling from the height of 500 meters. The body of the beginner 5th-order is very stronger. Their health and Stamina is also very high and cannot be compared to any lower order.

If someone feeds Ayden a Peak 3rd-star or beginner 4-star healing potion, Ayden would easily survive but he knew in his heart that this was over. In his opinion he and his race has done nothing wrong. They needed food to survive which is why they attacked the Blackwood city even after knowing that attacking the Blackwood city would mean that they were going to end up becoming the Ethereal Empire.

"It looks like it's finally over." The princess who was freely riding Aditya sighed in relief. Noah also felt relieved. Although the other fire mutant ants had managed to run away or scatter around, they were no longer a threat. As for the queen and the main army of mutant fire ants, The Ethereal Empire is going to deal with that. Though they are still not sure where the queen and the main mutant fire ants army lies.

Sylvie flew down and landed right beside Ayden who was lying on the ground with earth spears stuck to his body. Red blood was coming out of his body while he looked at the sky. The cold snow fell from the sky and landed on his body. His body was slowly losing the warmth showing that he was rapidly losing his health and was going to die.

"If you tell us the location of your queen, then I will save your life." It would be a headache to look for the queen. After countering more than hundreds of 4th-order mutant fire ants and a 5th-order, everyone was sure that the whole mutant fire ant colony had more than one 5th-order cultivators.

"Hmph! Why should I betray my queen and my race?" Till death Ayden refused to betray his queen and his race.

Sylvie didn't looked that surprised by Ayden's answer. She already seems to have guessed what he is going to answer. "According to the reports there were thousands of 4th-order. But we only face 129 4th-order mutant fire ants. Where are the other 4th-order mutant fire ants?"

"After we took down this city, they went back to the queen. I was left in charge of keeping our newly nest protected which I failed. Not just I failed, but also I have let millions of mutant fire ants die in front of my own eyes while I did nothing to save them." At the end of the sentence, it was as if Ayden was talking to himself. He was expressing the regret he currently felt. The guilt he had for not being able to save his own race from being turned to ashes.

"Human, do not think that this is over. Mother queen is far more stronger. She will have her revenge on you all for my and my brothers death. Mark my words, she is going to kill you all." After saying that Ayden took his last breath as his soul left his body.

Sylvie stared at the dead body Ayden for an entire minute in silence before sighing while looking up. These days it was extremely hard to find someone trust worthy enough. One cannot even trust their own families. Sylvie envied the undying loyalty that Ayden had for the mother queen. From the beginning what he was doing was not wrong from his side. It was hunger that made the mutant fire ants attack the blackwood city.

Alicia who had wrapped her arms around Aditya's neck looked down. Her gaze on lingering on the deep crater that completely had made the Blackwood city disappear from the map. Now instead of the city, there was a big deep crater. Human and other races bones buried inside the crater.

While the mutant fire ants only destroyed the blackwood city and turned it into ruins, Aditya had completely erased the blackwood city from the map. From now on, the blackwood city had become a thing of the past.

"Should we head back?" Alicia asked. The princess did not realized that this entire time her soft body was pressed against his body. Aditya can feel her breasts pressed against his chest.

"Let's head back. The situation is more dangerous than we thought. Reporting this to your father is our top priority." If this had happened in Aditya's territory, he alone would have went to wiped out every single mutant fire ants. He did not needed his army. But things worked differently in other Empires. Also the fact that the enemy might have multiple 5th-orders made things dangerous. Although they were not sure about the enemy having multiple 5th-orders, it would be better to be safe than sorry.

"Alright let's go back." Sylvie put the dead body of Ayden in her storage ring. She wanted to show this to the Emperor and also use the 5th-order mutant fire ant's body parts to make weapons. She was sure that the claws of the 5th-order mutant fire ant would make very high quality weapons.

On their way back, no one spoke anything. Even Alicia, the goddess did not said anything when Aditya was tightly holding her body against his. Maybe she had not paid attention to what she was holding on to. Or maybe she was thinking something which made her forget that Aditya was enjoying the soft sensation on his chest.

"His royal Highness and the princess has returned." All the soldiers who were stationed outside the Rose Hills city walls looked at the group of 4 people who was descending down and landed right in front of the city gate.

"Who is this man?"

"Judging by the way he is holding the princess's waist I am sure the princess must have a intimate relationship with this man."

"Maybe this guy is the princess's boyfriend."

"Or maybe he is the princess's unannounced fiance."

Alicia, Aditya, Noah and Sylvie were able to hear the whispers of the soldiers with their enhanced senses. Hearing these words, Alicia realized that her body was pressing against Aditya. She quickly became embarrassed. Her cheeks turned red unfortunately no one managed to see her beautiful face that was hidden under the veil. Alicia did not said anything.

As long as Aditya land on the ground, she glared at Aditya while gently pushing him away. Aditya only chuckled realizing that the princess must have been embarrassed.

"Welcome back, your royal highness." Levi the commander of the million troops welcomed the crown prince and the princess.

"Levi, you can ask the soldiers to take some rest and take things easy. For the next few days the chances of mutant fire ant attacking this city is less than 90%. Just be sure to regularly sends scouts and search the area surrounding the city." Noah's words had only made Levi have more questions.

"Your royal highness, what do you mean by Mutant?" Levi asked with a confused face.

"These are not just normal fire ants. They are mutant fire ants. An evolved version of normal fire ants. I will explain things later. For now I will have to urgently report everything to the Emperor." Levi nodded and moved aside to let Aditya, Alicia, Sylvie and Noah enter the city.
