Chapter 175: Chapter 173: Cave Sanctuary
Jon and Dugnis arrived at the front cave where the first leader initially was. Jon observed the surrounding, "a fight broke out here"
"Of course, seems like the leader used his second power" Dugnis replied him.
"We should go in and help the leader to end this"
"...wait Jon, are you serious? I think it’s enough here."
"What do you an?"
"Rember when we wanted to rescue the leader. You didn’t really have a reason to but you did anyways because I begged you, and you clearly said you would not endanger your life..."
"What are you trying to say?"
"You can leave now"
"..." Jon silently looked at him, he sighed and walked passed him. "et
inside when you are done talking"
"...that asshole. I just can never get used to him." Dugnis followed and went inside.
The fight between Jim and Durandel slowly ca to an end, no matter how strong Jim was, he could never overpower a very strong spirit King. Durandel gave his head a up-down jab, he fell on his head and flat on the floor. He was already bleeding with so much from his nose and mouth, he’s got wounds all over his head and he was out of stamina Durandel on the other end still looked full of vigor, even though his white mane seed to have been stained with Jim’s blood. He grabbed Jim by his hair and raised him up, "...it was a splendid fight"
????????
His claws entered deep into Jim’s belly. Jim was about to grim when he suddenly flinched. ’He’s sucking it...’
"Do you think I’m a fool, your flesh died a thousand years ago, for you to be die its not your flesh that needs to be killed but that ominous energy that has kept you alive all those years."
Durandel strengthened the hand that was inside the stomach. And pushed further till it ca out of his back. Jim groaned and shouted.
"Spirit art: Diversify"
Dark energy dispersed in large amount through Jim’s back and has it was dispersing Jim’s body beca thinner and began to rotten, turning to a dirt-brown colour. His hairs began to turn white even his teeth began to wither, till je was left with no life anymore and what was left of him was dust.
Durandel sighed, "that took alot of energy. Don’t die on
Ellifis" he disappeared.
Which of course Ellifis imdiately noticed. "Durandel has returned. He used a lot of energy, I don’t even have enough port mana to summon any celestial spirit, I have to bet everything on Viscount Frenheit and Marie, since I’ve given her the Poraimmon she wanted so badly."
He held his arm, "the wound keeps getting worse" he continued the path and knew that he was drawing closer to Zearus.
Zearus and Rosalia arrived at what seed like a sanctuary, five stone coffins laid in circles and in the middle was a dry fountain.
"First it was Jarled’s aura, then now Jim’s."
Zearus didn’t pay any attention to her and instead run his hand through the dust that was on the stone coffin.
"Do you rember? A thousand years ago, this day; they called us anomalies, they said we were creatures that shouldn’t exist in this world, we weren’t harmful in any way, we just did our best to survive too, just like them but they decided to na do away with us because they were scared."
"Scam it Zearus. You tore down the capital of Badhagroff, a stronghold of great defense, you tore it down alone, running rampage, you couldn’t even do magic... tsk, I guess the definition of surviving has changed. Because you are bluffing, don’t act pitiful it sucks, because you have been pretending for a thousand years now, you seem to have forgotten your true self. Scam it! Scam it!! We were anomalies, we were brilliant humans that hated the society we live in, it just so happens that we were the best ones fit for the work, we were the best victims they could push their responsibilities on and seem like a Victor to the whole world, and thanks to that, all of that world will belong to us."
Zearus looked at Rosalia. ’She’s a lot more frank than I ever thought she was.’
"In two hours a thousand year will complete. Normally it should he impossible for humans to live a thousand year but any human who can successfully live a thousand year is blessed by a fruit that can give him true immortality and godly powers, a god will descend here today. This place where it all started, where we were supposed to die but instead shoulder the weight of the world. A god will visit us" Zearus smiled, "do well to stay alive until then"
He tilted his head and quickly moved to steps sideways in rush.
????????!
The staff seed to have bruised his cheek. But it imdiately healed.
He turned his head to look at the staff, he run his hand through the engravings on the staff. ’This is not fake... it’s the real thing, Valpnir’s staff.’
"I’m surprised you guys really recognize this, except that the owner is a monkey-looking deity, I know no other information regarding this." Rein said as he walked into the sanctuary from the cave. "I really don’t know you people but I know sothing will happened here today if I don’t kill both of you, especially you old man"
The golden staff reduced to its original shape and Rein swirled it and stomped it on the ground beside him, the stones flew up and Rein kicked each of them as small as they are towards Zearus, whi caught it with his bare hands and threw them on the floor.
"What childishness" he put his hands behind his back, the stones had caused a bruise on his palm, it was probably the strength and the speed combined together.
’It is really amazing that he could catch that, but u didn’t apply much strength. It would be hard to judge his overall strength, things would have been better if I got many insight stat point which enables
to be able to see the combat power of an opponent.’
Rein pointed his hand forward and signaled co to Zearus. But instead Rosalia closed in on him from behind.
’Good, it’s too late to react!’ She thought she had him’
The mont the hair on her ha d was about to co in contact with Rein’s clothe, he swung the golden staff to his back with his right hand which was afar off from the side Rosalia was aiming towards, but still she got hit before she could touch him and was thrown away but she landed on her fit with her back against the pointy cave.
She frowned, ’what was that crazy speed. I couldn’t even see anything. What trick did he use?’
She dashed again but Rein wasn’t moving or did not pay attention to her, instead his eyes was fixated on Zearus, this ti she was aiming towards Rein’s right side where the golden staff was being held, the last minute she saw Rein tighten his grip on the golden staff.
’He’s luring ...’ She quickly diverted and went sideways, crashed into the crave.
She ca back outside imdiately, "Hey brat, whi the hell are you"
Rein looked back but not completely, he turned his head towards Zearus whi stood still and kept looking. You guys do not deserve to know my identity, not whe you are about to destroy sothing I perish.
"What is that thing, tell us... if it is within our capabilities we shall let it go and you will leave us alone"
"...hmmm" Rein sighed, "... that’s reasonable" Rein ribbed his chin with his left hand. "Since this was not the place I saw you stavb the white-haired guy, then I guess you have not t Jon yet, hence he surely is alive, but there’s no telling what you can do. The best solution right now is to kill you and get Jon then go back ho."
"I can give you my word"
"...like you said, if it’s in your capabilities, giving
your word is not enough, I can’t risk the life of my dear friend."
"...your arrogance will only being you death"
Rosalia looked at both of them as they talked to each other, ’this bastard, is he trying to buy ti right now, instead of killing him...seriously has Zearus beco that weak... or is it the because of the boy. I do admit he his strong. I can still feel.the impact of his hit, its power-packed. But to think Zearus would resort to underhanded tricks like this. Tsk tsk’
"Enough chit-chat. I don’t want Jon to et
here so let’s round things up"
"I shall give you your last warning and chance to turn back and leave."
"This is the fourth ti you are saying that right now and I don’t know if you really need a hearing aid, because I don’t plan to so let’s get into it."
*sigh*
"All right then" He began to raise his hand up slowly and briars began to co from the ground and rise very tall.
??????????
"...huh" Zearus was at first dumbfounded.
??????????!
??????????!!
??????????!!!
??????????!!!!
...
...
Zearus was again multiple tis sliced but his briars were defending and they kept falling off and growing back, the sequel continued for a shot while before the vampire Viscount stood still as Ellifis’ voice rang out from another chamber of the cave that reach the sanctuary.
"Ha, I caught up with you finally. It really pissed
that you would run away from your leader like that"
"...tchhii" he squeezed his face and it was obvious that he was very angry.
