Chapter 39: 39

Unedited chapter

39. Still Want to Duel?

When General Leva found out that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince had been kidnapped by the star pirates, his heart jumped into his throat. After realizing that the man opposite the commlink was actually Edgar, his heart finally settled back down into his chest.

"Your Imperial Highness, why are you aboard the star pirates ship?" Leva asked. The spaceship of the Blazing Flame Star Pirate Group was very famous. It was said that the military had once besieged this star pirate group. Unfortunately, their target was too small and too skilled at hiding, while the universe was too big. In the end, they had never been able to capture the men of this star pirate group. Their pursuit was in vain even after spending so much military funds.

"There were star pirates who wanted to rob us on the road." Edgar said.

Leva was stunned but managed to react immediately. Because there were star pirates who wanted to rob His Imperial Highness’ group, so they simply robbed the star pirates in turn?

It was an action worthy of His Imperial Highness! Leva glanced at Edgar admiringly.

Leva was of the Imperial Fleet. Although the Empire had military ranks, but the military expenditures were paid by the Imperial family. Naturally, they were also loyal to the Imperial family.

"Edgar, what's going on outside? You . . ." Head peeking out from the doorway, Shu Shu looked at Edgar cautiously. Didn't his disciple say that he was a crown prince? Why would they get besieged by the military? Could it be that he was actually a former crown prince? Or did the Imperial family actually have a falling-out with the Empire? Or . . . did he have a brother who didn't want him to return and hoped to ambush him halfway?

"A sub-beastman?" Leva was surprised to see a sub-beastman come running to talk to Edgar. There was actually a sub-beastman in the spaceship, and he could even enter and exit the cockpit at will and call Edgar's name directly . . . .

Leva hadn’t had time to say anything yet, and the communication was already terminated by Edgar.

". . ." Leva looked for the record of the video call just now, took a screenshot of the scene where the sub-beastman appeared, and then sent it to His Imperial Majesty the Emperor.

The crown prince had graduated from the Imperial College for ten years already. Many noblemen would get betrothed when they were studying in the Imperial College and get married as soon as they graduated. The crown prince, however, had never tried to find any sub-beastman during these past years, and no sub-beastman had ever appeared at his side as well . . . . It was really not easy to arrive at the current situation, so of course, Leva had to report it immediately.

His Imperial Majesty and the Empress would surely be happy!

Edgar didn't know what Leva did. He turned his head and, seeing Shu Shu’s anxious look, said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, this fleet is coming to bring me back to the capital star."

Such a big fleet, and it was actually coming to bring Edgar back to the capital star! Shu Shu gave Edgar an admiring glance. His disciple was a Mr. Perfect, ah! Since there was someone who was able to support him, he didn’t need to work hard in the future, did he?

As a hamster spirit who would run to humans to become a house pet because living in the wild was too hard, Shu Shu completely lacked psychological pressure from asking for support or being kept.

He was really quite easy to support. He only had to eat enough, that’s it!

Looking at the sub-beastman’s eyes that were as bright as the full moon, Edgar suddenly felt a bit proud of himself.

Among the dazzling warships of the Imperial Fleet, there were three spaceships that seemed to be out of place among the surrounding warships. On top of that, there was even an extremely ugly cargo spaceship between the three spaceships . . . . This scene undoubtedly got the attention of every spaceship they met along the way.

When the fleet was approaching the capital star, after only one or two days of travel, the capital star had already received the news.

General Leva of the Imperial Fleet was coming back with His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince.

More than a week had passed since the Imperial family held a press conference, yet those matters had not completely died down.

However, what everyone was talking about now was not whether Edgar had really become a fallen beast and was being kept in the capital star. Rather . . . did the crown prince really consider everyone else beneath him as a rule? Had he really suppressed the new recruit who bullied his classmate?

As for the assaulted sub-beastman . . . . After learning that Edgar had not become a fallen beast, there were many sub-beastmen who thought that Edgar couldn’t have forced himself on the sub-beastman. Without much extra effort, the personal life of the sub-beastman who had stood up to accuse Edgar was turned upside down.

As it turned out . . . this sub-beastman had absolutely never been in contact with Edgar!

When the crown prince attended the Imperial College, this sub-beastman was still in elementary school. The crown prince had joined the military after graduation and seldom returned to the capital star. At which time did the crown prince force this sub-beastman to do such things?

Anyway, this matter had been clarified, but there was no evidence or proof that Edgar had not done the other two things, especially since Geo had made a solemn vow that he was going to find Edgar for a duel.

"From the start, His Imperial Highness has no need to suppress that Geo. His Imperial Highness’ innate skills are much better than Geo’s!"

"But if that's indeed the case, why on earth would Geo find His Imperial Highness for a duel? Making such a faux pas, won’t the Imperial family make life difficult for him?"

"I believe His Imperial Highness surely won’t do that kind of thing."

"Maybe His Imperial Highness himself doesn’t know what the people around him have done?"

. . . . . .

There were all sorts of discussions on the Internet. Before, everyone's attention was on the crown prince having become a fallen beast. Now, everyone's attention was on Geo wanting to find the crown prince for a duel.

A duel between two powerful beastmen would surely be phenomenal!

Therefore, after the news about His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s impending return to the capital star spread widely, everyone went to Geo’s social account to stand in a circle and watch, wanting to know what he would do.

When Geo saw so many people paying attention to himself, he was naturally excited. He immediately posted another message on his social account, saying that he would definitely welcome the spaceship and then confront Edgar and fight a duel.

After posting this message, Geo couldn’t help but feel a bit proud of himself.

What about the Imperial family? Now was the information society; the Imperial family had to face the fact that it was impossible to manipulate Geo’s situation from behind the scene. Conversely, the Imperial family might even protect him, so they wouldn’t be made a scapegoat if something bad happened to him at this moment!

As for the duel . . . .

Geo looked over all the things he had prepared these days and had a little bit more confidence.

He would definitely make people have a whole new level of respect for him.

After Geo confirmed that he was going to welcome the spaceship, people were excited.

The reporters went to the spaceship landing point early to stake out the place. Many people who wanted to be spectators also went there early. In addition to these people, there were also a large number of "star" chasing people who rushed there.

The majority of those who chased the "star" wanted to see His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince, while the minority was going to see Geo, and most of them were sub-beastmen.

Thus, on the day when Edgar’s spaceship reached the capital star, the spaceship landing point actually became the area with the highest density of sub-beastmen in the entire capital star.

Of course, it was impossible for the TV station to let slip such a "grand" occasion. They might as well broadcast it live.

"Now I’ll show everyone the image of the starry sky. The Imperial Fleet is only half an hour away from the capital star. Our satellite has taken pictures of their fleet. Everyone can see that among the many warships, there are three spaceships that stand out from the masses. And the crown prince is on one of those spaceships." The host said with a smile.

"One spaceship among those three is an outmoded cargo spaceship. It is said that this is the spaceship that His Imperial Highness originally took. Gass planet is located far away from here, and this cargo spaceship is the only spaceship they could come out with."

"His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince took such a spaceship to leave Gass planet. On the way, it caught the attention of the star pirates. They tried to rob His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince, but unexpectedly, His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince actually robbed their ships in turn . . . . This is the origin of the other two spaceships."

The host was a sub-beastman, and his voice was crisp and melodious. Many people who listened to his explanation couldn’t help but inwardly sigh—His Imperial Highness was really amazing! He was actually able to rob the star pirates in turn!

Geo also watched the live broadcast, but in fact, he secretly sneered. Edgar in turn robbed the star pirate ships? This was someone singing the praise of him, right? Most likely, it was the Imperial Fleet who fortuitously eliminated the two star pirate groups and let Edgar claim it as his feat.

Which star pirates were so easy to eliminate?

Thinking so, Geo stopped watching the live broadcast. Rather, he looked up to the sky and watched the three spaceships slowly descend.

The Imperial Fleet would not enter the capital star; they docked at a space station near the capital star. The three spaceships controlled by Edgar, however, would land in the capital star.

The staff had already cleared a large area for the spaceships to dock, and thus the spaceships landed very smoothly.

"Let's go." Edgar said to Shu Shu.

When the spaceship was descending, Shu Shu already leaned forward to the window to watch the views outside. He looked very excited right now. "Wow! Edgar, the capital star is really beautiful! It’s so lively here!"

Edgar nodded. At the same time, his brows wrinkled slightly.

As he approached the capital star, he was able to connect to the star network. Naturally, he got to know all kinds of news on the star network. For example, someone wanted to find him for a duel, and many people were coming to become spectators.

If Shu Shu was exposed now, it would be bad . . . . After some consideration, Edgar suddenly stopped walking and then had someone bring a hat and a pair of sunglasses for Shu Shu. He also made Shu Shu and the boatmen walked together.

Edgar was a little nervous after such a proposal. He was worried that Shu Shu would feel unhappy. However, Shu Shu clearly didn’t think too much about it and was quite excited instead. "I must hide my identity?" This was just like what those celebrities usually did when getting off the plane. He did not expect to also have such a day!

"That’s right. If they photograph you, your future life will be inconvenient." Edgar said. He liked Shu Shu, but Shu Shu was too young. Even if he wanted to marry Shu Shu, he had to wait for a few years until Shu Shu was a little older. In this case, he had better not let Shu Shu get exposed for the time being, so they could have a few more years of uncomplicated life.

At heart, Shu Shu didn't like to be noticed. Having heard what was said, he nodded, "I’ll definitely hide well."

The little sub-beastman was really obedient. Edgar smiled.

Truly an obedient little sub-beastman! The surrounding boatmen and soldiers all looked at Edgar with envy.

Only after everyone were well-prepared did they leave the spaceships. They also took those star pirates along without any trouble and were ready to hand them over to the policemen who had been waiting outside.

Because of this, they were delayed for quite a long while.

A small number of people who supported Geo immediately became complacent. Among them was a beastman who had never had a good opinion about the Imperial family. He even expressed loudly that Edgar was definitely afraid and could only dawdle to avoid coming.

"Don’t talk rubbish! His Imperial Highness isn’t afraid at all!"

"There must be something that delays His Imperial Highness."

Several sub-beastmen nearby heard this beastman's words, and one after another, they started to defend Edgar.

Being noticed by these sub-beastmen, the beastman was very happy. But when he heard that these sub-beastmen were all speaking for Edgar, his face turned black again. "You sub-beastmen only know how to worship money. Edgar is the crown prince, so you think everything he did is right, don’t you? Let me tell you, the rich don't have a single good quality. Maybe the reason why Edgar isn’t married yet is because he still wants to play with several sub-beastmen!"

"You . . . " One leading sub-beastman was furious, but he didn’t know how to refute it.

"Who are you anyway? What kind of sub-beastman you are, I know best. You think that if you can’t marry a rich man, you might as well look for those rich and powerful beastmen to play with while you’re still unmarried. After you’ve had enough fun, then you’ll look for a naive, well-behaved man to marry, right?" The beastman regarded the sub-beastman with contempt but was unable to control his eyes from running over the sub-beastman’s body back and forth. "You think they’ll really marry you? They’re definitely just playing with you!"

The sub-beastman’s face was totally black. He just liked to see a handsome guy, that’s all. This man was talking nonsense!

The sub-beastman wanted to curse this man, but unfortunately, he couldn’t do that. Right at this moment, a beastman forced his way through and then slapped the shoulder of the carelessly-speaking beastman. At once, the slapped beastman fell on his butt to the ground.

"Who have sneak attacked me?" The beastman yelled while holding his aching shoulder.

"Me." A voice rang out above the beastman’s head. The beastman looked up and found that he was talking to a handsome beastman with a smile on the corner of his mouth dressed in a police uniform.

"As a policeman, you actually attacked a civilian! I’m going to file a complaint against you!" Shaking, the beastman started to get up from the ground.

"Where did he attack you? You obviously slipped and fell on your own!" A sub-beastman on the side unexpectedly spoke while rolling his eyes.

"That’s right! You obviously slipped and fell on your own!" Another sub-beastman also spoke.

"You actually want to frame a policeman! We’ll report you too! You attempted to harass us!"

One after another, several sub-beastmen spoke. Then they worshipfully gazed at the beastman wearing a police uniform.

The beaten beastman was furious and still wanted to say something. As a result, he was just going to open his mouth, and his wrist was already grabbed by the beastman wearing a police uniform.

This policeman had an enormous strength, gripping the beastman arm like he was going to break it. For a moment, the beastman was actually unable to do anything besides screaming in pain.

The policeman pulled the beastman’s arm, dragged him out of the crowd, and then threw him out. After he was done, he smiled and said: "I really wish that there’re more beastmen like you, so there’ll be more sub-beastmen who like my kind of beastman."

Done speaking, he returned to the crowd and showed an elegant smile to the several sub-beastmen who had supported him before. "Hello, all! My name is Calvin."

"Hello, Mr. Calvin!" These few sub-beastmen were not in a hurry to go and see Edgar's spaceship. One by one, they started to chat with this very elegant beastman. Calvin smiled and teased these few sub-beastmen until they openly laughed out loud.

It was at this time that Edgar came down from the spaceship.

Edgar walked in the front. After climbing down the spaceship, he took a quick look at the man behind him and then walked outside.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding staff promptly stepped forward to help him make his way through—there were really too many people outside, and they all surged toward Edgar. If you walked straight, you definitely wouldn’t be able to go out.

"Your Imperial Highness! Your Imperial Highness!"

"His Imperial Highness is coming out!"

"So handsome!"

. . . . . .

After catching sight of Edgar, a good deal of people started to scream. Edgar was young, handsome, well-off, and had a military rank. When someone did a survey of the most popular beastman in the Beastman Empire a year ago, no one was in the least surprised when Edgar ended up at the top of the list.

In the Beastman Empire, the most famous celebrities did not receive as much attention as Edgar.

There were too many screaming people outside. Edgar had a mind to leave from the other passage, but he restrained himself regardless. The situation today was different. He definitely had to go out from here.

He had raised a ruckus, so now he had to show his face and let others know that he was fine. Moreover, he heard that someone wanted to duel with him.

Edgar walked forward. In fact, he should say something at this time, but he had never been good at it, so he simply didn’t say anything.

"Your Imperial Highness!"

"Don't squeeze me!"

"Ouch!"

"His Imperial Highness is coming, ah!"

. . . . . .

The situation was a little bad since there were too many people, and some people started to push and shove forward. Fortunately, the staff had long anticipated the current situation and already taken some precautions, so there was no major problem in the end.

But, unexpectedly, an accident suddenly happened at this moment.

Out of the blue, a beastman in the crowd changed from human form to beast form!

There was a very big discrepancy between the size of a beastman's human form and the size of his beast form. Originally, people were already crowded together. At this time, when the beastman suddenly changed from human form to beast form, people crowded around him naturally almost collapsed.

Around the beastman whose body suddenly transformed, frightened screams started to reverberate. After a beastman was crushed, he actually changed into his beast form too!

Not only that, but in other areas, some beastmen also changed into their beast form. Very soon, the situation became chaotic.

If the people here were all beastmen, the situation would not become chaotic, and they would not have an accident. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the people here were sub-beastmen. If one was not careful, one might be hurt by the beastmen.

Seeing this scene, Edgar narrowed his eyes slightly.

Newly born beastmen couldn’t control their transformation between human form and beast form. They would have the ability to perfectly control it after they were five or six years old. But if they were frightened, they might suddenly change from human form to beast form.

However . . . adult beastmen were perfectly able to control themselves. Not to mention just getting squeezed a little, even if they were injured, they would not suddenly change into their beast form.

Was this . . . someone looking for trouble?

Several beastmen abruptly changed into their beast form in succession, and the crowd instantly became chaotic. Generally, in this situation, someone should change into his beast form to suppress and evacuate the beasts. But in the current situation, if someone changed into his beast form, it would probably make the situation more chaotic.

Edgar suddenly thought of a similar ability that he had recently learned while on the spaceship—level suppression.

There were levels between beastmen. High-level beastmen could often suppress low-level beastmen. In the past, when Edgar fought with people, he could exploit it to suppress his opponents at certain times.

However, his level suppression at that time was actually very weak. He basically could only unleash it on one person. After he began to cultivate, the situation changed.

When he hadn’t awakened the bloodline and was still a snake, he ran into Jeress and his men and could already suppress a few men in their party. Later . . . .

He tried it when fighting with those star pirates. By using his current ability, he could completely make those star pirates thoroughly suppressed. . . . Of course, so as to be able to fight properly at that time, he did not use it often and always held back some when using it.

Now, if he completely unleashed it . . . . Edgar frowned slightly; he had no assurance after all.

Edgar was just thinking about whether or not to use the level suppression when he saw that the crowd was pressing in and actually began to push their way toward those people behind him.

Shu Shu was there! Seeing this scene, Edgar no longer had time to think about it. His circulating spiritual power began to unleash the pressure on his body.

He only did it unconsciously before, but it could already make Jeress and the other men can't help but feel afraid. Now that he was going all out . . . .

The people in the surrounding chaos all felt the pressure and finally felt afraid.

People with low strength immediately became stiff all over and didn’t dare to move. As for people with high strength, fear poured out from the bottom of their hearts and their movements became slow.

Calvin, who had been protecting the sub-beastmen at his side, was not brought down. When he felt this pressure, he could not help but suck in a deep breath. "This guy is becoming stronger, ah . . . . His luck is really good!"

He still had time to comment, but the sub-beastmen around him had started to shiver with fear.

After Edgar unleashed the pressure, everyone calmed down. The beastmen who changed into their beast form were Edgar's main target. Now, they couldn’t stir up trouble anymore and could only lie prone on the ground, shivering with fear.

The whole world suddenly quieted down, and only some live streaming webcams that were still flying around Edgar made a buzzing sound. They took pictures of Edgar and the scared stiff people around him.

The sub-beastman host who was broadcasting live on the Internet paused for a moment and then began to laugh: "The situation has been controlled. It should be His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince utilizing his own level to carry out a suppression. I didn’t expect that the level suppression can actually cause such a scene, and I also don’t know what level His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s strength has reached now. Has he already broken through level eight and reached level nine?"

"I heard through a grapevine that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince has awakened the bloodline on Gass planet."

"The Beastman Empire is about to usher in another strong beastman."

The host laughed while reporting the news, and below, countless comments were already posted.

"His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince has actually awakened the bloodline! He’s really amazing!"

"Do you notice that Geo isn’t among the crowd? He’s suppressed!"

"If he’s so easily suppressed like this, what ability does he have that can make the crown prince envy him?"

"Oh my god, His Imperial Highness is actually so powerful!"

. . . . . .

Countless people on the Internet were praising Edgar, but at this moment, Edgar was in fact turning his head to take a look at Shu Shu who was nearby. He used a large-scale level suppression, wouldn’t Shu Shu feel uncomfortable?

Edgar was a little worried, but he did not expect that when he looked over, Shu Shu was looking straight to this side and also waved his hand at Edgar, seemingly unaffected at all. Edgar immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Shu Shu was actually a little affected at the beginning. It was indeed a mythical animal’s pressure, ah! He was just a little hamster, how could he stand it?

Anyway, he couldn't stand it, but the red bead in his body clearly didn't take this pressure seriously. From the red bead, a warm current rushed forth. After it circulated through his whole body one time, he couldn’t feel the pressure anymore.

His red bead was really the best, and Edgar was also very handsome, ah! Behind the sunglasses, Shu Shu was staring at Edgar with sparkling eyes, and he couldn’t help but bounce up and down, hoping to see Edgar through the surrounding wall of people.

Shu Shu was surrounded by the boatmen and the soldiers. The people outside could not see him, but the people at his side all saw his action, and for a moment, they prostrated themselves in admiration.

This sub-beastman was indeed very amazing. He actually managed to be completely unaffected! No wonder His Imperial Highness liked him!

People already calmed down and obviously wouldn’t riot anymore, so Edgar withdrew the pressure.

After Edgar showed up, Geo wanted to go find Edgar. As a result, he was unable to squeeze through so many people, and later . . . . He was a little excited when he realized that there was a riot. He looked forward to Edgar being unable to resolve this situation and getting implicated in it.

In the end . . . Edgar only depended on the level suppression and actually made the crowd calm down? And, under Edgar's level suppression, he even had a feeling that he completely lacked capability to resist.

Edgar was actually this powerful?!

Geo was afraid. After the situation was controlled, he was no longer willing to find Edgar.

Unfortunately, Edgar thought of him at this moment: "I remember that someone wants to find me for a duel. Where’s this person?"

The people at Geo’s side turned towards Geo in unison. Someone even gave Geo a push, shoving Geo out of the crowd.

Like that, Geo appeared in front of everyone.

"You’re the one who said that I was jealous of you and framed you?" This time, Edgar’s level suppression was aimed at Geo alone.

Geo's legs were soft, and his whole person became weak. He sat on the ground and couldn't stop trembling; teeth chattering, he was practically acting like a buffoon. He was really scared this time—

Edgar was so powerful; was he going to kill him? He didn’t want to die!

"The pressure of a mythical animal, an average person won’t be able to stand it . . ." Shu Shu bounced up and down again. He was extremely proud after seeing the scene over there—Edgar was indeed his disciple!

"Still want to duel?" Edgar asked Geo. He had been thinking of giving this man a lesson about profiting from someone’s misfortune if they really had a duel, but now . . . . Was it still necessary?

"No, no!" Geo hurriedly replied. Right now, he didn't dare to think about losing face. He just wanted to hurry up and escape from here.

So horrible! Edgar was really so horrible!

At that time, how could he feel like framing this person?
