"The kid is right, King Arthur. Let go of your weapon, so we could talk on the table if you wish," Abaddon said, without changing his tone. "Fighting you was never in my vocabulary, milord. I respected you as my enemy. But right now, we are losing sight of our true goal! We need to work together to defeat the famine and prolong our species!"
"How could you say such words when you're the plague of this world? Humans are the only ones who deserve to live in this world. THose who aren't humans are monsters with different nas. But, at the end of the day, you're nothing but a monster-a monster who's smarter than those weakest prey," King Arthur retorted, as he glared his eyes at .
Without looking at Abaddon, King Arthur swung his sword and sliced the demonic king's head. A zipping sound echoed inside the room, with a decapitated skull rolling on the floor. Darkened blood spilled on the floor and almost drenched my body. The fishy sll coming from the crimson liquid filled the air, which spread through the room
But instead of shielding myself away from the event, I marked the scene inside my brain. The mory of Abaddon had lived short in my head, but continued living on for the rest of my life. We didn't talk much, but Abaddon was a kind demon, compared to King Arthur.
After killing the demon lord, King Arthur spoke, with his eyes still glaring in my direction, "Demons are nothing but monsters. Even those humans who are willing to help demons are also monstersAnd that includes you."
King Arthur didn't give us any chance to react as he launched himself straight at our figure. Fenrir, rleen, and I moved on ti and let out our spells against the maddened enemy. Fenrir and I went to King Arthur's side, hoping we could sandwich him down. rleen jolted backwards and casted her signature light magic to attack King Arthur.
rleen added more mana in her magic compared to the ones she previously used. If soone got hit by that beam, that being would instantly die from the radiance.
But even with the speed of light, King Arthur slipped through the side and dodged rleen's attack. King Arthur was not faster than light. That bloke just moved his body before rleen could even launch her projectile at King Arthur.
However, I shook my head and focused on the event before . I had no ti to complent King Arthur's, since Fenrir and I needed to attack him.
And that's what we did.
Fenrir had her first form ready before we could even enter this place. She prepared her claws and aid straight at King Arthur's flank, hoping Fenrir could land a hit. I used my Excalibur and slashed King Arthur at the sa ti Fenrir attacked. Fenrir and I wanted to ambush King Arthur after dodging rleen's assault, which would injure our opponent.
But as soon as we attempted to attack King Arthur, the man used his sword and spun like a helicopter blade. That action was enough to send Fenrir and I in opposite directions, nearly crashing against the two boulders.
When King Arthur rose from the ground, he grunted and chuckled up a storm. "And here I thought you guys could defeat a noble demon, or a knight from the roundtable. But your team, Arthur, are a bunch of fools. You know nothing about true power, despite wielding that Excalibur."
"Oh, yeah? I'm the strongest person inside this ga.world! I am stronger and more knowledgeable than you," I retorted, hoping to patch my pride back up.
King Arthur just snickered to himself and slowly raised his blade. "That's what you think, Arthur. And I know everything, since I lived inside your consciousness- and peaked through your mories. I don't know everything I saw, but I know that this world.is similar to the gas you humans played."
"But that thought doesn't matter right now. It doesn't concern if this world is a ga or not. As long as I'm alive, I will protect my people, regardless of that reality. It's not because your people or those gods programd like this..It's because humans are superior creatures among any other. These demons you desperately protect ca from a chaotic ancestry. I don't want that to harm my kingdom, even if it ans killing my fellow humans like you," King Arthur continued, as he rushed towards .
His eyes turned like fire, burning my body into crisps without the fiery fla. King Arthur had narrowed his target and aid as his punching bag. The rest of my team turned into invisible obstructions he needed to push aside, while craving to kill .
Since it had co to this, you had no other choice but to run in circles. You dodged Arthur's first attack, which had another followed up attack. King Arthur perford a blitz of strikes at your figures, itching to land a hit on your body.
After a few missed swings, King Arthur finally had his sword aid at you. The trajectory of his slash would slice your half of my face if I were not careful. And before I knew it, there was no other way for to go but onward.
But if I followed that angle, that sword would slice my fate. It would be the quickest ticker for to exit this world if I wished to perish for the second ti.
However, none of that happened to . When I peeled my eyes open, King Arthur's hand moved by my side, completely missing my body. Thanks to Fenrir's interventions, none of those assaults injured . rleen also wanted to use her light spell and protect . But when she witnessed that Fenrir already saved , rleen heaved out a sigh and undid her magic.
I wasted no ti and escaped King Arthur's side, while heading back to my team. rleen continued worrying about my safety, but I was the one who cared more about her.
But, alas, we didn't have any ti to spare our concerns. King Arthur slowly rose before us and turned to greet our eyes.
"You have your sword, but you don't use it. You're just blocking and dodging my attacks like a rat in the wilderness. Tell , Arthur. Do you really want to go in my way that much at the cost of your friends?"
Arthur had his eyes on before and refused to attack my comrades. It worked in my favour, since I didn't want my friends to die in battle. And I would gladly sacrifice my life to save those who I care about the most.
However, things had finally changed. King Arthur opened his eyes and noticed my two friends at my side. His breaths beca heavier, which reverberated inside the throne room. That man also had his Excalibur shining a bright light that could end our lives.
But among the targets King Arthur had, he chose rleen. "From my experience, mages don't have any protective spells against assassin's. Since assassin's could close the gap between wizards, those mages don't have a chance..Now, Arthur. I'm going to ask you a question, on behalf of your friend there....What would you do if I aim my sword at your mage?"
As soon as King Arhtur said those words, I imdiately jumped in front of rleen and protected her. Since King Arthur wanted to kill rleen first before anyone else, my adrenaline rushed like a horse in a race. Fenrir also went to my side and backed up, with her claws ready for another round.
"Whatever you do, King Arthur, don't touch my girl," I growled, while gripping my sword tighter than ever before.
King Arthur stretched his neck and replied, "The more you plead, the more I love to burn you into the ground."
Since I wanted to protect rleen with everything I had, my Excalibur released a faint dark light. The power I got from Crayman also amplified my strength, giving the boost I needed against King Arthur.
My Excalibur absorbed my emotions and turned it into raw power. And considering I wanted to protect rleen, that power surged through my veins. It was the most imnse mana my body had ever received throughout my experience.
If I planned on attacking King Arthur, I needed everything I had against him.
Besides battling against King Arthur, he also had soone by his side. A knight erged at King Arthur's flank and retracted his blade. It was Sir Geraint, a knight from the roundtable. If I had to guess Sir Geraint, he may be a friend that King Arthur trusted.
"I shall lend you my strength and battle for your cause, my friend..Am I allowed to join your battle, King Arthur?" Sir Geraint asked, while giving his body enhancent spells.
"You may, Sir Geraint. But leave Arthur and rleen to . You could attack that monster over there with that hideous fur."
