I Reveal My Identity

I broke off immediately, and said, "Thanks."

She went red in the face. "Y-y-you were conscious? Just so you know, you weren't breathing! T-That's why I was doing the CPR! It isn't like I was k-k-k-kissing you or anything!"

"Oh, really?" I said. "Well, let's leave it at that for today. Where are we, anyways?"

"Near the border of the Forest Kingdom and the Riverine Kingdom. And close to the Demon Kingdom."

Oh, so that's where we are. For now, I guess I'd better go and destroy the Force attacking us."

"Are you mad?" she looked horrified. "Leave it to the Otherworlders! What do you think you can do?! You just woke up from a month-long nap, and you looked like a ghost then, and you do now too! Even you can't take down High Demons in such a condition, especially a High Demon on the brink of Evolution!"

"I have to go," I said. "It's my responsibility."

"What are you talking about?"

"It's my responsibility in four different ways, which I will tell you hen the time comes."

I didn't wait for her; I used Usra's power to fly for a short time and surveyed the battle.

The battle was going very badly. A few of my classmate lie bleeding, near dead; the rest were either badly injured or completely surrounded.

Tsk, tsk.

I spotted the High Demon slowly wading through monster corpses that were slowly disintegrating.

I flew downwards with devastating speed; but the High Demon noticed me and defended himself. Still, my blows weren't that weak; my sword gashed his arm. He roared and summoned a fireball; but I had already danced to his right. I jabbed his at his side and opened another cut; he roared again, and jumped back to lob the fireball at me.

I simply summoned Usra and protected my self while I opened the other dimensions to let my pets help my fallen and falling classmates. Matet went around healing them.

I turned my attention back on the High Demon, but was a bit too late; he hit me with such force it cracked Usra. I was really angry now.

I summoned Excalibur and activated Supersonic; I danced around him so fast he couldn't see me coming. I slashes and slashed at him; he became about ten times weaker with each hit.

Just when I was about to finish him off, red light swirled around him. It pushed me back with enough force to slam me into a mountain and make a new cave; the rocks collapsed in on me.

I could hear Alicia screaming in the distance. I smiled grimly and idiotically at myself. She does care for me. Thank god I had enough sense to activate Usra before the impact.

I blasted the rocks out from me with my skill, Explode, and flew to the High Demon -

No. it wasn't a High Demon anymore. He had evolved into a Demon Champion.

Yikes.

He was still evolving, but the aura around him prevented us from killing him. I walked up to a place around fifty feet from it and stood there.

"Everyone, get away from here." I magnified my voice so it would carry through the area.

"Of course not!" A girl in golden armor and helmet yelled. "We're going to stand beside you and fight!"

"No."

"We don't take orders from random strangers anyway! We only take orders from the Royal with the greatest influence where we are!"

"Fine." I decided it was time to reveal who I was. "By my authority as the First Prince of the Forest Kingdom, the present territory, as the acting Royal with the greatest influence, I order all of you to retreat for the time being and not to fight, in the name of Silver Restove, Heir to the ruling Restove Family.

And I summoned Usra, who began glowing at my proclamation. Alicia recognized it immediately.

"That's...the Usra Armor, property of Prince Ken. Then he really is..." She had a shell-shocked look on her face, which immediately turned into a look that said, 'You're going to tell me all about it later.'

Fine by me. I had more pressing matters on hand.

As Alicia ordered everyone back, I turned to face the grinning, fully-evolved, perfectly healthy and fresh Demon Champion.
