CEO In A Fantasy World Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Mock Battle

"Fine, if you don't want to come to me… I will come to you!" Caesar said with a wide smile.

Caesar stomped the ground and practically flew towards the knights in front of him, large fissures erupted below the ground where his foot had stomped.

*whish*

Like a gust of wind, Caesar immediately closed the distance between him and the knights, he swung his sword down vertically before they could even react.

*crash*

The knight he swung at didn't even have time to blink his eyes before he was already knocked unconscious, the knights behind him were pushed a few steps back just from the sheer force.

All of this happened in a matter of a split second, right after Caesar struck down the first one he moved to the second one.

"CLOSE HIM IN, DON'T GIVE HIM ANY MOVING ROOM" a knight roared loudly.

The knights immediately broke out of their stupor after hearing the roar, they all charged ferociously at Caesar as to not let him have another chance at attacking.

"This is more like it!" Caesar said excitedly and dashed towards his next target… This time the Knights were prepared and stabbed forward.

Caesar continued to run at them without stopping, the three sword's trajectory moved as if moved in slow motion. He dodged them in a zig-zag pattern and stabbed their abdomen's with his wooden swords.

*PHEW*

The three knights bodies flew out of the encirclement and landed a far distance away, no one even saw what happened.

"DON'T FRET, WE HAVE SUPERIOR NUMBERS!" a knight roared out.

Caesar smiled "he is right, even if I am superior in strength and speed… Even I have a limit to my endurance"

Caesar kicked off the ground once again and slashed down at the nearby knights, his sword movements were no longer rough like they used to be, on the contrary, they appeared to be quite graceful.

The Knights attacked Caesar from all sides, he rotated his sword at phenomenal speeds to block the attacks coming from his behind and front… Caesar slightly leaned down and moved forward while swinging both swords as quickly as possible.

Multiple knights would be blasted away with each swing, however, the knights were relentless… When one fell, another would take his place.

Caesar was beginning to tire, accurately blocking and attacking was draining his energy at an accelerated rate. Caesar ground his teeth and his muscles were taut.

The knights around Caesar figured this was their chance and all stabbed towards him without hesitation.

*CLANG*

Caesar jumped up at the last second and the swords collided with each other, Caesar placed his foot on one of the blades and rushed forward, he kicked one of the knights away and continued his onslaught once again.

After a few seconds, the Knights finally realized what happened and got back in their formation to pressure Caesar once again.

*gasp*

Caesar gasped for breath and scanned his surroundings, although he took out a large portion, their numbers were far too vast.

"HE'S GETTING TIRED, SURROUND HIM!" a knight roared

"I won't be that easy" Caesar grumbled and started to swing his swords even faster.

*clang*

*clang*

"OOOOHHHHHHH" The knights gave out a battle cry as they also swung towards Caesar.

Caesar furrowed his brows… "they are much more coordinated than they were before… I am impressed." He thought quietly to himself.

The battle continued for 10 minutes… 20 minutes… 30 minutes… 60 minutes…
Until finally one of the knights struck down at his back, Caesar lifted his hand to block but, his muscles cramped and he could no longer lift the sword above his head.

*bang*

Silence enveloped the entire training grounds, the knight's sword landed on Caesar's shoulder causing all of the knights present to halt their actions.

Caesar raised his eyes and studied the knight in front of him, he looked relatively average and had a huge smile on his face.

"What is your name?"

"John!" The knight answered excitedly.

Caesar took out a coin from his pocket and flipped it into the knight's hands.

"show that to the palace guards and ask for Sebastian, he will give your reward to you"

Caesar slowly strolled through the many knights that surrounded him and walked over the mult.i.tude of unconscious bodies…

"You have all improved greatly since the last time we fought, I commend all of you," Caesar said with a slightly tired tone while walking away.

"Tsk, even with all of that I still didn't gain one percentage" Caesars clicked his tongue in annoyance and didn't turn back to face the knights that were also tired.

Once Caesar's back was no longer in sight, all of the knights immediately collapsed on the ground and started breathing heavily.

"I don't even care about the reward, I am never fighting the marshall again," Knight A said exasperatedly.

"Tell me about it… and f.u.c.kin John gets to take the reward money" Knight B said with anguish

"I guess we should take all of these guys home…" Knight C said while looking at all of the unconscious knights.

All of the remaining knights nodded their head in agreement and started to move the unconscious guys back to their homes.

Caesar walked steadily back to the palace, he was in deep contemplation. "I pushed my body to the limits and I have been drinking Ahri's blood somewhat frequently… Could it be that it just takes a much longer time, or perhaps there is a method to speed the process up? Caesar brainstormed to himself while walking.

The many civilians all showed a happy smile and bowed respectively whenever they caught sight of Caesar… the more bold women would even whistle and wave at him.

Caesar tended to flash the citizens a smile or wave back but this time he carried a serious expression and didn't pay them much heed. This caused many of the citizens to look at Caesar with a worried look.

He soon arrived at the palace gates, the guards bowed down and slowly opened the gates.

"Welcome back, your highness," they said respectively.

Caesar nodded his head and walked inside, the normally peaceful palace was replaced with frantic butlers and maids running all over the place.

He looked at this scene confused and grabbed the arm of the nearest butler "what is going on?" Caesar asked curiously.

The butler turned around in shock, once he saw Caesar's face he breathed a sigh of relief and bowed deeply "the king has ordered for a grand ball tomorrow, it is said that a method will be announced to help the poor in need and help the families of fallen soldiers survive… It is also a formal celebration for our victory" The butler explained calmly.

"A celebration that only n.o.bles are attending?" Caesar tilted his head and asked confused.

"The ball will encompa.s.s the entire palace and courtyard, all of the citizens are invited… It will be the first grand ball in which commoners and n.o.bles alike can drink from the same table" the butler said with stars in his eyes.

Caesar let go of the butler's arm and nodded in understanding "it seems as though the left wing has discovered a solution to the insurance problem… My father also seems to be trying to destroy the rift between n.o.bles and commoners" Caesar smiled in gratification and headed towards his room.

The king was probably not only holding a celebration for those two things but also because Caesar was leaving in two days… Caesar soon made it to his room and opened the door.

"You have finally decided to show yourself," Ahri said from the bed as she stood up and started walking towards him.

"You're the one that disappeared in the first place, haha" Caesar chuckled and looked at the big basket she was carrying.

Ahri rolled her eyes and placed the covered basket at Caesar's feet, "you told me to bring you all of the things I needed for the trip, make sure not to look inside" Ahri said sternly and radiated killing intent.

Caesar inspected the basket curiously but just shrugged his shoulders and put it inside of his storage ring.

"Y-you have a spatial ring?!?!" Ahri asked wide-eyed.

Caesar raised his eyes and smiled like it was the most obvious thing in the world, "Of course I do, you don't?"

"O-of course I don't, do you know how much those things cost? Only the richest and the high-grade priests from the church have them" Ahri said quickly while looking at the ring with stars in her eyes.

Caesar slowly glanced at the ring on his finger and thought to himself "I wonder how many people in this world have proposed with this ring" he laughed inside.

Caesar shook his head with a wry smile and patted Ahri on the head, "I will get one for you" he said soothingly.

"Really? Thank you so much!" Ahri practically jumped up and down in excitement, which woman didn't like beautiful and expensive things? Ahri was no exception.

Caesar suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her into his embrace, "of course you are going to need to repay me" He said seductively and whispered into her ear.

"I-i don't have anything worth that much"

Caesar chuckled lightly and whispered into her ear once again "you have something worth much more than a mere spatial ring" he said as he moved his mouth down to her neck.

*puch*

Caesar inserted his fangs into her neck, Ahri's limbs went taut and she hugged Caesar's neck tightly.

"Mmhmm" Ahri let out a deep moan and collapsed into Caesar's embrace, not wanting to absorb too much mana, Caesar soon parted from her neck and smiled at the limp Ahri in his arms.

"I feel as though you don't lose out on this deal though, from my understanding… This is a win-win situation for you" He said seductively while looking at her limp and satisfied face.

"S-shut up you idiot" Ahri slurred and soon fell asleep in his arms, Caesar picked her up and gently placed her on the bed. Caesar also crawled in bed and closed his eyes, "The party tomorrow is going to be stressful…" he thought inwardly as he pa.s.sed into a deep sleep.
