THE DEATH OF SHARASS

The only thing Prince Reigen could do right now was to lure Sharass into fighting him without his magic tricks. It would definitely not be an easy way, but he would still try his luck. He would have had a chance to win if Sharass had not used his magic.

"I'm just a weak prince who can only use my sword to fight, but you have magic. You could even hurt me without touching me. Do you think it's fair to fight that way?" The prince tried to provoke the witch again.

Sharass was still the same cunning and evil witch from fourteen years ago. When she exterminated the people of Shovalon fourteen years ago, she also acted arrogant and heartless.

Fourteen years had passed, and the witch's appearance looked even worse than it had been then. There were too many wrinkles on her face, and even her hair turned dull grey now.

However, the intimidating aura of the witch didn't change at all. Still, in her black outfit, Sharass spread the ominous aura to her surrounding.

"Do you think what you did to me is fair, Your Highness?" The witch suddenly acted politely, but a small smirk plastered on her face when she continued, "You dared to steal my magic wand so that you can defeat me, and we both know that your act is not fair at all."

The grip on the sword tightened, and the pair of golden eyes flashed at the witch. "I just want to fight with you with our real powers. That way, our fight will be fair and square. The winner will get a clean victory in the end."

Hearing the innocent statement from the black-haired prince, Sharass suddenly laughed out loud. "You want to fight fair and square, right?" She questioned the prince arrogantly. "Alright, I don't need any tools in my hands, and you can fight me with your sword. Is that fair enough, Your Highness?"

It wasn't every day that Sharass could easily listen to others, and Prince Reigen knew that it was his chance to use all his strength to kill the witch. He had studied witches for so long, and he knew their weaknesses.

That was why he didn't hesitate and immediately rushed forward to launch the attack. Sharass didn't even have a magic wand in her hand, but she managed to dodge the prince's attack with ease.

Not only that, but she could fight Shadow Strike of the prince using the wind. Yes, the witch moved the wind to fight with the prince's sword, and it looked like the prince's sword was fighting with another sword made of wind.

Perhaps it was the weakness of Shadow Strike. The sword was so light, and it was easily be pressed by the wind sword controlled by the witch. Prince Reigen couldn't even bring the sword closer to the witch, and he gritted his teeth once again.

"I don't even have my magic wand with me, Your Highness. How come you can't come closer to me? I didn't expect you to be this powerless."

Prince Reigen's pride was hurt by the witch's pomposity, but he decided to continue attacking the witch with his sword. His movement was swift and elegant, but Sharass was still able to dodge every attack launched by the prince.

Until finally, Prince Reigen decided to increase the speed of his sword movement, and the witch was quite distracted by the quick movement of the sword. It was the advantage of Shadow Strike's lightweight. The prince could move it swiftly until it became nearly invisible in the opponent's eyes.

Sharass was distracted by the sword's movement, and she didn't notice that the prince shoved his left hand into the silver armor, and when the hand came out of the armor again, the dagger was in hand.

Still using his right hand to dance the Shadow Strike, Prince Reigen focused his golden eyes on the witch. To be precise, he aimed for the witch's heart.

And when he managed to lock the target with his eyes, he immediately threw the dagger with full strength. The dagger was made of the same materials used for Shadow Strike, and it was so light and could move at full speed toward the target.

And before Sharass realized it, the dagger had already pierced her heart. Red blood began to flow from the wounded heart, and the witch fell to the floor.

Prince Reigen smirked when he saw the sight. The dagger he threw earlier was not just a regular dagger. It was a poisoned dagger especially made to kill the witch.

Still, with the Shadow Strike in his right hand, Prince Reigen walked over to the heavily wounded witch. The witch wasn't dead yet, but he was in critical condition.

The blood was not only flowing from the heart, but it was also flowing from the mouth. Prince Reigen was proud because he managed to defeat the evil witch.

"You... you are so sneaky, Your Highness!" Sharass still managed to speak even if her face was already as white as the paper.

Prince Reigen knelt on the floor and plunged his sword into the floor to support his body. "I learned to be a cunning man from you, Sharass. Now you can finally taste your own medicine."

The prince sounded so arrogant as ever, but the evil witch suddenly laughed at him albeit sounding so frail. "You will regret your decision to kill me, Your Highness. In the future, you will surely cry over my death."

Prince Reigen didn't even understand the witch's weak speech, but the witch already breathed the last breath and died for real.

The black-haired prince was puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about what the witch just said because his troops suddenly came into the hall and immediately celebrated their victory.

Prince Reigen did win against Sharass, but he didn't know that the red rose inside the prison tower was crying over the death of the strongest witch.
