Back at Jarlon Valley,
Oclen could sense Howards rapid increase in strength. He grinded a fist into a ball and wondered why he never asked for help. If Howard had been here, he was at least 90 percent certain he would've died! In fact, Howard might have been able to defeat at least one of his brothers and bought him ti to escape. Yet he couldn't do it! He couldn't ask Howard to risk his life! Not after he watched Jenny smile around him! Why did he have to be so pathetic?
"They're coming," Parlee said, it's orange eyes glowing while it pointed towards the forest. "If you run in that direction, they won't find you for three days,"
"What are you going to do while I'm fighting them?" Oclen stood up and began transforming into the Eighteen Eyed Juggernaut. "What, you act like you know everything, but I can tell deep down inside you're afraid. You're afraid of my brothers, aren't you?"
"Hahaha! Scared? I could kill them if I wanted to!" Parlee shook his head, pointing at three silhouette rushing towards him. "However, you're the only Arthraku that I've t that might actually be able to absorb . After all, you have sothing from your father that no one else has! Even those three don't have it! They don't have that tenacity you have! The tenacity you got from watching your mother suffer!"
"Foolish Aren't I?" Oclen said, his eighteen eyes beginning to glimr while his Ki Hearts began to beat faster and faster. "Foolish that part of actually believes you! However, I can tell! I can tell everything out of your mouth is a lie! Your just ssing with ! I'm going to defeat them! I don't care what you say!"
"But that's not possible," Parlee began to vanish, "Now, here's a recomndation, when they co at you, challenge Xavier to fight you alone. He's just foolish enough to maybe give you the opportunity! However, even if agrees, you maybe have a one percent change of winning!"
"One percent," Oclen cracked his neck, "1 in a hundred. I'll take it any day over certain death." Oclen watched his three brother jump through a clearing. He turend and saw Parlee had disappeared while a strange look appeared on his face. Even in the flesh colored body of the Eighteen Eyed Juggernaut you could still tell he was worried. "Hmph, if I die today, at least I can say it was nice weather," A tear fell down Oclen's eyes while Xavier, his oldest half brother finally ca into distance. "Howard, I'm sorry, if I die, take out Arcolith for okay? And please! Kill my father!"
###
Howard's strength seed to be like an endless well that kept fueling him with strength.
However, there were so areas where he was clearly lacking.
Necrolith stepped and dodged several fists from Howard while a smile appeared on his face. Compared to the Howard from previously, the one before he transford, this Howard wasn't as good at using things like Ki Barriers around his body! There was still a way he could win!
'His strength is growing, but he's getting more wild,' Necrolith held up his arm to parry an attack from Howard before hundreds of black snakes made of his Ki shot at Howard. The next mont, they all seed to explode with a motion of Howards fist! However, this was going great!
Necrolith smiled and looked at Monica's body suffusing with ice as she shot dozens of spears through the heads of Archelon Zombies.
Priscilla, next to her, lit a few into balls of flas while she did her best to keep the other three safe. Yet every mont that went by, he wouldn't even need Gargolith to capture them! His Archelon zombies were about to do the trick! In just one minute, those girls would be in his zombies hands! Then Howard would have to do whatever he says! He might even remove his head! It was all going according to plan.
"You're weakness is showing!" Necrolith scread while his fist connected with the side of Howard face, causing him to spin in the air. "Hahaha! Take this! Reapers Claw!"
Boom!
Necrolith hit Howard in the gut and caused him to fly back several feet before he slid on the ground. However, rather than frowning like Necrolith expected, a gigantic smile grew on his face.
"Hmmm, you can control it. You can control how Shadow Ki makes you feel, can't you? It's similar in frequency to the tremblings in the air I feel from my Silver Ki, except its much weaker overall. Did you analyze the sequence of frequencies in order to control it? Or did you lose yourself to it? Hahaha! What happened in your life Necrolith that made you chose to be evil? Did soone hurt you growing up?"
"What the hell? Are you trying to analyze ?" Necrolith laughed, "Brat, everyone I loved is dead and gone! I beca a mber of the Skulls thousands of years ago! Nothing is holding down! Not like you and those four girls!"
"Hmmm, then why do I sense sadness inside of you?" Howard smiled wryly, "Did you kill a girl you loved dearly and descend into madness? Did your mother not take care of you growing up? Did she hit you or sothing?"
"Hmph, I'm not letting a sixteen year old get to ," Necrolith cracked his neck while a trace of anger appeared on his visage. "You-you You all deserve to pay! I'm going to kill you, just like I killed them!"
Necrolith had once been an extrely talented archer a thousand years ago that used to work in Montgory Kingdom, well before a city was built there 800 years ago. He had been a hunter, that regularly went out to catch beasts for the king.
However, one day, he'd found a woman that he loved, and spent all his ti courting her. He gave her family lavish gifts until one day she was given to him for marriage.
Unfortunately, the king of Montgory took a liking to her, and tried to kill him before stealing her away to his bed!
Five years later, Necrolith, who had once been a hunter that would do anything on behalf of the kingdom, slaughtered nearly every single one of the king's guards in the darkness of the night. However, when he finally made it to the side of the woman he loved, not only did she not accept him, she gravely wounded him!
He fell down into the Furnace, and luckily enough survived but gained a strange hideous form. It wasn't until 100 years later that he t the skulls, the people like him who'd suffered similar fates! And now! Now so little brat was trying to pretend to know him?! He'd slaughtered thousands of people in the last 1000 years! Nothing Howard said could rattle him.
"She must have been pretty, hahaha!" Howard nodded his head, "Very well, I'll let you visit her. I'm not sure if you killed her, but I'm guessing you did. Well, shall we let you to be together again?"
'You're becoming worse than I was, hahaha!" Necrolith nodded his head, "However, I'm sure you don't know this, but every minute in that form, the more chance you'll lose your humanity and beco soone like us! Even if I lose here today, I won! I'm winning right now!"
"No, I don't think so," Howard activated his Dream Ki and appeared in front of Necrolith. A silver fla appearing on his fist before he shot it right through Necrolith's torso. "You see Every minute that goes by, I'm learning to control this. Now, how many more of these hits can you take before you die hahaha! Let's find out!"
