"Not on my watch, you do not", a voice said from behind.

When the leader of the invaders heard the voice, he froze. Although he could not move even a finger, to begin with, the voice caused his mind to go blank.

The voice was godly, it had a commanding tone of a celestial who had ruled for centuries. Moreover, the angry ferocious tone of voice alone was enough to cause one to shiver with fear much less withstand the killing intent released by it.

Ray flicked his hands, causing the restrictions upon the leader to vanish.

Feeling the restrictions bounding him removed and with him being able to move his body and regain control of it. The leader was overjoyed as he thought that the person who bound him must have used a lot of his strength thus, causing the restrictions to be removed.

The leader turned to face Ray and prepared for an intense battle with the person who dared to bound him and cause him such fear. After all, even he had his pride.

Moreover, by being held down by such a person to the extent of not even being able to command his mana, the leader's pride took a great hit.

"You just made the biggest mistake-",

The leader started to speak as he turned around. However, he stuttered as words got stuck in his mouth. All he could do was choke on his own words as he saw Ray.

Right now, Ray was floating in the air with Bernard in one hand and his beast soul sword in the other. Furthermore, his body radiated immense energy.

The faint golden scales had spread throughout his body, giving him a feral appearance. Furthermore, the energy surrounding him started to become more corporeal by the moment.

However, it remained unknown what the energy seemed to form into. Moreover, Ray's body emitted such a killing intent that many of the remaining soldiers in the surroundings were lying unconscious on the ground with blood seeping out their orifices.

After all, normal guards could not withstand such killing intent, causing their consciousness to take a deep blow while their pupils rolled up to their whites.

Meanwhile,

The leader of the invaders shuddered in fear. He never thought to meet a monster on a simple abduction mission. He felt his knees buckle and bent down from the sheer pressure he felt from the person standing in front of him.

As the person in front of him locked his gaze on him, the leader's world spun as his life flashed before his eyes. After all, the person in front of him looked at him in such a way that he felt locked down by a predator ready to be devoured.

By the time the leader turned around,

Ray said in contempt,

"Ohh!, I would like to see how I made the biggest mistake by releasing you. You know what, come at me with everything you got, I will give you a 3 moves handicap".

Whereas, the man sneered upon listening to Ray's words. He thought of Ray as a naive kid who had newly obtained such strength and did not know anything about how the world worked.

The leader then said, "I won't stand on ceremony then".

Although the leader thought of Ray as nothing more than a kid, he did not dare underestimate someone who could injure Bernard to such an extent. Moreover, the appearance, aura, and killing intent emitted by Ray still made the leader's body tremble from fear.

However, on the other side, seeing Ray give the leader such a handicap caused unrest to grow in the hearts of the guards as they knew how terrifying the other person was after they had witnessed the leader's strength beforehand.

As for Ray, they had not witnessed his strength and only saw him arrive with an unconscious and bloodied man in his hand. While they believed that Ray's appearance and actions were domineering while the killing intent released by him also allowed them to figure out Ray as someone who had killed countless times.

Yet they knew that underestimating an enemy was the biggest mistake which according to them was being done by Ray at the moment. Furthermore, they believed that Ray had already used a great portion of his strength to reach here and defeat the man in his hands.

The leader of the invaders was really thorough with his preparations. He knew about his strength and also knew that his mana was near the end due to the amount of mana he consumed in the previous attempt to kill the guards when Ray stopped him and dispelled his attack.

Therefore, the leader replenished his mana by taking out a small jade bottle from under his robes. The jade bottle had a reddish liquid stored in it.

Furthermore, the liquid gave off a demonic feeling, making one take a step back as they felt a guillotine hanging above them at all times just by looking at the potion.

The man took out the potion, uncorked the bottle, and gulped the potion in one breath. The red potion flowed down the man's throat and then into his stomach. It was then assimilated by the man's body.

The second the potion was assimilated by the man's body, the man's body went through a strange change. At first, the man screamed at top of his lungs as if in immense pain.

Then, a demonic aura rose from within the man, and the man started laughing maniacally.

As the demonic aura rose, the mana within the man's body also surged. However, the man was different from before, it also gave a demonic aura. The same aura as that of the potion.

Feeling his mana surge and his strength increase, the man chuckled. Even he could not believe that the association had made such a product.

However, the man did not realize one thing. Along with the rise in strength and his mana replenishing, his body also seemed to get through an unprecedented change.

His hair started graying out while his nails elongated and his teeth turned into fangs. Furthermore, the man's eyes turned into slits, like those of a reptile.

In short, the leader had traded his humanity and vitality for strength.

Meanwhile, the guards shrieked in horror as they saw the changes that the leader had gone through. They realized that to gain strength, the invader had used a forbidden power and turned into a beast hybrid.

Seeing the change in the man's body, even the other two invaders, the lanky man, and the extremely seductive and alluring women were alarmed. They now understood why the association gave them such amazing potions at such low prices.

A few moments later, the leader turned into a strange demonic beast and seemed to lose all semblance of humanity he had, turning into a bestial creature.

The leader only felt rage and all he wanted to do was kill and get it even with the man floating in front of him.

"Roar!!",

The bestial man roared into the sky and lunged forward at Ray.

Meanwhile, inside the main tent. The princess was worried stiff after seeing the changes that had occurred outside the tent.

She had been constantly trying to contact the palace but to no extent. She received no reply. All she could do was pin her hopes on the man floating above the ground like a god.
