117 Hot Pursuit
A delighted smile hung on Zera’s lips as he rapidly climbed up the steps. He finally successfully rescued the princess. Now all he needed to do was return to the EIA Base and he would have completed the quest.
Apart from that, he saved the princess. He was the hero. The amount of rewards that would be bestowed upon him by the EIA made him lick his lips in expectation as a satisfied grin hung on his face.
In the end, those damn officers who thought he was too weak to participate in the mission can go eat their shit back.
“Hahaha, fools…” Zeras muttered to himself thinking about the Humbans when suddenly a notification appeared in front of him.
[Mana: 0]
Zeras Humban’s body immediately returned to his normal figure as soon as he exited the stone wall.
“Shit… I completely forgot to regenerate my Mana…” Zeras said shocked. He had been using Absolute Morph Gene for almost three days now and never bothered to consider the Mana consumption.
“There he is…” The voice of a Humban rang out from behind him as Zeras watched an army of Humbans running full speed towards him.
“Well, time to hit the road…”
“Activate Dash…”
Zera’s figure immediately disappeared like a mirage as he flashed forward with intense speed that made all the Humbans hang their jaw on the ground.
“Fast… He’s damn fast…”
“See you later losers…” Zeras shouted back at them as he quickly approached the exit of the temple all while laughing satisfiedly to himself.
If one thing was sure about him, it was his speed. And with the crazy amount of energy he just obtained, he could keep this up for an entire day.
“Hahahahahhah….What the!!!???” Zeras choked on his breath as he saw hundreds of Humbans at the outside of the temple.
“There he is… Kill him!!! Break his skull!!! Dig out his huge eyeballs…” “What the? It is your grandfather’s eyeballs that are huge. You all go suck your dicks…” Zeras screamed angrily back as he immediately speeded to the sides, the army of Humbans rapidly closing in from behind.
With a stump on the ground, he immediately jumped out of the surrounding wall of the temple and landed at the side of the Tower, and immediately sprinted towards the forest quickly chased by the armies of Humbans.

Five robed figures could be seen on the faraway roofs of one of the settlements as they watched the chase at the faraway distance, but it was so far away that they only saw a tiny group of ants chasing after an ant.
“What do you see, Pirad…” Officer Arroyo gravely asked Pirad whose eye mask was already taken off and he was staring intently at the distance chase.
They were the ones ordered to complete the mission but it seems something or someone beat them to it. They didn’t understand why a Humban would try to save the princess and neither was there any Human apart from them here. If they failed the mission, then it would severely affect their rankings and the EIA’s reputation.
“A total of 250 Humbans are on the chase. I see a robed lady who is no doubt the princess but the person carrying the princess… He’s… He’s a Human?”
“What!!!” The officers immediately screamed out in shock on hearing that.
“Wait, it’s actually him. It’s the young Chap. Zeras…” Officer Pirad said as he blinked his eyes multiple times to confirm the information.
“Tch. That Damn kid. I thought I told you both to keep watch over him…” Office Arroyo said looking at Halo and Zurin.
“Tch. My boy saved the day in the end… Didn’t he?” Officer Halo said as he sat his tired butt on the roof.
“Then we’ve completed the mission?…” Officer Emmaus said wiping off the sweat on his forehead.
“We’re not. While the boy is pretty fast and the Humbans won’t be able to catch up to him, still, the direction he’s heading…” Officer Pirad said gravely.
“What’s wrong with that…” Officer Arroyo asked trying to push off the conclusion he made in his mind…
“He’s heading towards the Malevolent Sea. He won’t be able to enter it and would get caught by the Humbans in the end…”
“WHAT!!!”

Zeras blitzed forward with all the speed he could muster as objects flung towards him from the sides but he still avoided them in the last seconds as sweat poured down his head looking at an especially large tree that flew past him. If that had landed on his butt, then he had no doubt what it would have done to them.
Well, at least he had a shield he was carrying behind him…
“Where is this?…” The weak whisper of a lady echoed behind Zeras.
“Oh, princess you’re awake…” Zeras asked surprised as he jumped to the sides avoiding a huge plank that was thrown towards him.
“You…” Princess Diana slowly opened her eyes fully as she stared at the person talking to him with groggy eyes but it immediately snapped open in shock seeing who it was…
“Is anything wrong princess…” Zeras asked curiously.
“You’re a male!!!??” Princess Diana asked him her voice brimming with shock and Zeras even felt the smallest sign of disgust but he pushed it away as an illusion.
“Um, where you expecting to be saved by a female instead?…” Zeras asked raising an eyebrow. He was expecting ‘Oh? You risked your life for me?” and not being questioned if he was a male.
“Um, the EIA?..” Princess Diana asked curiously.
“Yes… I’m a New Cadets of the EIA.” Zeras affirmed as he dodged to the side avoiding another collision.
She finally looked back as she saw the hundreds of Humbans chasing after them.
“I wonder why they are still chasing after you… They will never be able to catch up to you like this. And um, you’re pretty fast for a Peak Star rank champ…” Princess Diana said raising an eyebrow as she looked at the speed Zeras was moving at which could even almost rival half of her full speed.
“Thanks for the compliment princess…” Zeras said satisfiedly.
“But you’ve just committed a grave offense…” Princess Diana said as she looked behind Zeras with a mischievous grin.
“How have I offended you, princess?” Zeras asked as sweat droplets rolled down his temple.
Offending the Princess of the Amazonian Family. He might as well just kill himself.
“There’s a certain rule of the Amazon that says: if any male makes even the slightest physical contact with an Amazonian Princess. The most benevolent punishment for that was to have his manhood cut off and then all his five senses robbed off him, and the worst punishment was to naked him and then strap him with a rope to the back of a full speeding horse.
He would then be dragged across the entire ground of the Amazon ground and finally when he arrived at the center of the Amazon ground. He would be nailed both and and legs and then burned at the stake.” Princess Diana recited out as she stretched out her finger recounting all she read in the Amazon laws scroll.
Zeras swallowed hard hearing that as his eyes widened into saucers while his dick suddenly grew cold and shrank in.
“Well. Should I perhaps just stop and then wait to be killed by our pursuers instead? At least I’ll have a quick and satisfying death…” Zera’s asked her causing Princess Diana to feel a chill run down her spine as the thought of why the Humbans initially kidnapped her rang through her body making her grind her teeth in hatred at them.
“Well, your fate is in the hands of the Matriarch and the EIA higher-ups, but I believe they can let you off the hook, just this once…” Princess Diana said causing a mischievous grin to appear on Zeras’s face but they immediately faded away as he exited the forest and saw what was right in front of him.
“What the!!!??”
