Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

Nobody had taken notice of Michael and Icarus even after they had been circling above them for quite a while now.

The Adventurers beneath them were too focused on listening to their client and tending to the wounds of the weakened Blood-eyed Minotaur.

Michael knew that the element of surprise was on his side, and he made full use of that.

He planned his attack within seconds and started right after by drawing the bowstring back. The first arrow was released in the next second.

After the first arrow was released, Michael had to move fast. He released several arrows in quick succession while Icarus dived down to the ground.

Surprised by the sudden attack, the Adventurers were just a moment too late to react. The Zantur and the Jeglaw had already been hit in their chest and eye when the others stared upward in confusion to see Michael and Icarus dive down.

By the time they manifested their weapons, the female Destors had already been killed.

Icarus smashed into the ground without slowing down. The Greater Eagle crashed onto the male Destors' body to absorb the impact and used it to soften the blow. As a result, a few of his bones cracked and Icarus screeched out in pain. He knew that one of his talons broke but it was certainly worth it. The Destors was momentarily incapable of moving, which provided Michael enough time to replace the Siltang Bow with Seron Voulge and thrust the curved blade through the Destors' head.

Four enemies had been killed in the course of a single attack, but Michael and Icarus were not yet done.

Michael pulled Seron Voulge out of the Destors' head before he began moving again. He used Eagle Eyes and Lesser Enhancement before throwing Seron Voulge at the weakened Blood-eyed Minotaur. The bleeding all over its body had barely stopped when Seron Voulge's long blade penetrated deep into its chest, worsening its injuries.

Michael jumped down to the ground, while Icarus shot toward the Tamer Lionheart.

Icarus might not have been part of Michael's subjects for a long time, but it had grown attached to Tiara, and everyone else in the territory's small army. Witnessing the death of the people he had grown attached to wasn't nice nor was the trauma caused by the Blood-eyed Minotaur's tremendous power.

The Minotaur might be in a weakened state now, but it had been terrifying, shocking the Greater Eagle to the bones.

It wanted to take revenge, but Michael was already dealing with the Minotaur. Thus, the next target was obviously the Tamer of the Blood-eyed Minotaur!

Screeching loudly, Icarus charged at the timid Tamer and began to tear him apart, using his talons and razor-sharp beak.

Meanwhile, Michael emerged in front of the weakened Minotaur. Seron Voulge had impaled the Minotaur. The Monster was already at death's door so Michael's attack simply sealed the Blood-eyed Minotaur's fate. It didn't even retain enough strength to reach out for Michael when he stood less than two meters away from the beast.

Michael grasped Seron Voulge's shaft, twisted the curved blade in the Minotaur's body, and dragged the weapon downward, ripping the insides of the Minotaur.

The Blood-eyed Minotaur's body was in a weakened state. Even the resistance of the Minotuar's hide and flesh seemed to have been affected. The razor-sharp curved blade cut cleanly through the Minotaur, nearly splitting the monster in two.

Michael would have loved to torture the Minotaur a little longer and witness its miserable death, but he was also aware that the battle had yet to end.

Revenge was not over just yet!

Hence, he pulled Seron Voulge out of the Minotaur's body and turned around.

Icarus was viciously tearing the Lionheart Tamer apart. The timid Lionheart was physically stronger than Icarus, but the Greater Eagle was heavier and more ferocious. The Lionheart could only protect his face and hope that the Greater Eagle's attack would end soon.

Meanwhile, Michael dashed forward, spinning Seron Voulge around his body. He accelerated rapidly, gained momentum, and slashed Seron Voulge across the Lionheart's throat, beheading the Tamer at once.

Icarus shot in the air a moment before Michael's attack reached the Lionheart Tamer. He wanted to torture the Tamer a little longer, but it was not as if the Lionheart Tamer was the last enemy.

There was still one more Lionheart left to attack and kill.

The Lionheart, who had been shouting at the Adventurer team a minute ago, had gone completely silent. He didn't look scared. Instead, his gaze was filled with curiosity and a trace of disbelief.

"So, that's how it is?" The Lionheart mumbled after a few seconds. It looked like he had finally gained some understanding of the situation, "You are a Lord in the Untamed Jungle, aren't you? By any chance, did you encounter a group of Lionheart Adventurers in the Untamed Jungle before?"

The Lionheart could see the scars and remnants of healing burns all over Michael's head and arms. It wasn't easy to see them, but the Lionheart had great eyes and an exceptional understanding of the Lionheart race's fire affinity. He didn't have to be a genius to conclude that Michael's burns had been caused by something hot enough to burn his hair and skin.

Michael coldly stared at the Lionheart without saying anything, but that was enough of a response for the Lionheart, who began to smile.

"Let's join forces. How about it?"

The Lionheart stretched his hand out while his smile widened.

"What about your friends over there? You surely want to take revenge, don't you?" Michael asked, neither sounding friendly nor enraged. His voice was devoid of emotions.

The Lionheart burst into laughter when he heard what Michael said.

"Friends? These idiots were merely my tools. I used them to search the Untamed Jungle for something. However, now that the Lord of the Untamed Jungle appeared in front of me, I don't need them anymore. You just helped me get rid of some annoying pests. I should thank you," He said, still chuckling.

Michael raised an eyebrow, but he didn't say anything for a while.

"You are a weird one," Michael finally said after a full minute of utter silence had passed.

The Lionheart knew about the Lionheart Adventurer team, and about the existence of a Lord in the Untamed Jungle. It was only obvious, but it would be best if he killed the Lionheart standing in front of him as well. Many problems could be solved, or postponed that way.

The Lionheart should know that as well. Yet why did he seem so confident?

"I can tell what you're thinking about. It's actually nothing special. I work for Senator Keltos, just like the Leader of the Lionheart Adventurer Team, whom you've killed I presume. My rank is higher than that idiot, so having killed him is not a big deal. It's fine…as long as you join me. You'll be rewarded generously if you help me complete Senator Keltos' mission!"

Senator Keltos was one of the Senators in the Zentika Empire's Congress. Michael recalled having read something about him in one of the books he had purchased in the Rainbow Koi Shop. Senator Keltos was one of the Senior Senators, a powerhouse, and a highly influential Lord. He was the Lord of a large territory in the Zentika Empire and a Lionheart.

Yes, he was also a Lionheart.

The corners of Michael's lips curled upon hearing what the Lionheart said.

"That sounds interesting," He answered, nodding his head faintly.

However, his expression turned cold the next moment.

The Lionheart's mission was the reason his people died. Whether it was intentional or not, Michael didn't care.

He only cared about his people.

They had been killed cruelly, and Michael wanted nothing more than revenge – complete revenge.

Recalling the pained cries of his subjects, Michael's grip tightened on his weapon. Seron Voulge gleamed dangerously, and the Lionheart noticed that something had gone wrong.

He only saw that Michael's lips parted as a dangerous glint emerged in his eyes.

"But I don't really care."

Blood splashed like a fountain in the next moment, and a head flung through the air.
