Azreal kept coughing up blood, his face was devoid of all color as he looked at the gaping hole where his stomach used to me.
"You little bastard!"
Boom!
Earlon stomped down hard on Azrael's head, creating a small crater.
"Didn't you hear me telling you to stop"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He couldn't muster up the slightest bit of energy to form any resistance against Earlon much less to try and heal himself.
Turning his attention to the young man who was relaxing on top of a nearby building Earlon's face became even more hideous
"Why didn't you stop him!"
The young man looked at Earlon like he'd just been accused of the most heinous crime in history
"I did!, when he was running I destroyed that building to try and stop him!"
Pointing to building that had fallen a distance away that forced Azreal to stop.
Earlon was pissed, the fact that he came in the middle of the action, the queen would definitely blame him saying he should've stopped it.
And what made it worst was the fact that he knew that the little bastard here wouldn't get blamed for anything just based on his identity even Rodney wouldn't directly try to make an enemy out of him unless he had to.
It wasn't even the young man but his father, the current head of [ The Jade Ghost ].
"Shit how am I going to explain this to the queen"
Screeeeee!!
When Earlon looked over he saw Glen falling from the sky.
"Is everyone else completely useless today"
He no longer paid attention any attention Azreal or Kyle, since one was already dead and the other was already on the verge of death.
"Watch him!"
Saying that Earlon disappeared into the distance towards Glen.
'Is Enron going to come save me again?'
His eyelids had already started feeling heavy he had to force himself to keep them open, he just felt so calm.
The ground became covered in his blood
His sword that wasn't too far away from him started fidgeting, slowly moved closer and closer to him until it came in contact with his fingers, when he felt the sword his fingered twitched a bit trying to hold it.
He didn't know why but it felt like a voice was telling him to take hold of the sword and release the souls that were trapped inside
"Release"
His words weren't audible in the least because of the blood in his throat but it was loud enough for the young master who was still sulking to hear.
"Mhmm"
One by one the spirits all came out of the sword, starting from the weakest one, their body slowly broken apart leaving a few specs of golden light.
Steam visibly rose from the wound as the demi's one by one sacrificed themselves to save him by the time the last demi entered his body his wounds stopped bleeding, the blood that was on the ground was being absorbed by the sword.
Sadie and Dustin followed in quick succession, the specs of light that they turned into was hundreds of times larger than the ones the Demi's created.
When Sadie was absorbed his wounds had completely healed and the extra energy filled up, attacking the current limitations on his body.
A feeling of ecstasy washed over him like he'd just broken through his limits that same feeling came about seven more times before it finally stopped and a calm feeling washed over him.
In that moment he felt completely at peace, even though he was in the middle of a war zone where he could die at any moment, his mind was completely serene.
He didn't feel like moving at all unlike this feeling from before when he was dying this one made him feel completely alive.
His mind was still going in and out of consciousness so everything seemed like a hazy illusion to him.
But when Dustin's spirit still entered his body, the once calm atmosphere was completely shattered as the energy in his body started to rage.
Boom!
Gurgle!
Azreal was forced to sit up as he started vomiting up black blood.
Everything around him felt like it was spinning as he kept vomiting non-stop, the energy in his body refused to calm down no matter how hard he tried.
It felt even worse than when he'd just gotten impaled a moment ago.
In the sky above dark clouds started to converge, occasionally a lightning bolt would flash that looked like it wanted to destroy everything in its path.
Looking up at the sky then back at Azreal the young man wasn't sure how he should react, Seeing Azreal absorbing those souls was surprising but that was all he'd witnessed so horrible things while going out with his father but what stunned him was how quickly Azreal had broken through the levels, standing at the gate way of Godhood.
.....
When Shawn heard the whistle his smile faded and he turned completely serious.
"If you survive this we'll meet again"
Slowly raising his sword while tightening his grip on the sword.
"Crescent…..Moon…..Slaughter!"
The slash released by the sword this time could not be compared to what came before, the blade light covered a distance of over a kilometer obliterating everything it came in contact with.
Shawn didn't stick around to observe the result of his handy work instead he left —while Elk's vision was obscured by the blade light— heading where whistle originated from.
It didn't take him much time, a few long jumps and he was there.
Shortly after his arrival Earlon was approaching from the sky.
Looking down below he saw the two figures who both turned to look at him smiling viciously.
A pillar rose from the ground to catch him in mid-air, not hesitating he jumped in a different direction in one motion that looked all too natural.
Why would he jump to his death?
From the air, he couldn't see find Glen anywhere but instead saw Shawn and Rhyno looking back at him, it didn't take much brain power to figure out that Glen was done for.
And Earlon most certainly didn't plan on dying for a dead man.
"Did you get the origin blood?"
Rhyno smiled and nodded.
"Let's go"
That was all that needed to be said before they both leaped into the air.
When they were about a mile or so from the dome, Shawn flew up until the dome was only a few hundred meters away from him.
His entire body started turning red as steam visibly rose from his skin, veins all over his body bulged like they would burst at any moment.
"Bloodbath!"
Shawn started swinging his sword frantically as blood red blade lights shot out each of them is about six feet wide but in terms of might they made the 'crescent moon slaughter' feel like a light breeze.
When they came in contact with the dome there wasn't even a moment of suspense they directly ripped through it like a piece of paper.
The men that were holding up that area the dome started vomiting blood as they fell unconscious, a ripple effect was formed and the entire dome eventually came down those who weren't vomiting blood were sweating profusely.
A few miles away from the city was a teleportation formation waiting for them.
Shawn was breathing heavily, he had to depend on Rhyno for support.
"Damn I hate using that"
"Too bad"
On a branch, Grimm was sitting in a meditative pose with his eyes closed he spoke.
"You all took your time getting here"
"hahaha says the man who didn't have to participate in the battle at all"
Despite being in a weakened state Shawn's laugh still sounded heroic.
When Grimm opened his eyes the version of him in the city started melting, once the sludge melted off the body underneath it was one of Rhyno's clones.
"Who's going to be the one to break the news to Shahiem…..Not it"
"Not it"
Shawn was the slowest to react so the burden fell on him.
Grimm was the last on step inside the portal because was laying down some sludge to destroy the formation, as well as waiting for the sludge that was in the city to return to him.
On the other side of the formation, they reappear in the second city of Gaza "Waterford"
They didn't waste any time immediately going to the queens and Shahiem.
"Where is Adidja?"
Sheba spoke first not even bothering with the formalities, much less caring about the injured Shawn.
Everyone kept quiet no one wanted to be the one to explain, this was especially so for Shawn he kept trying to find words but nothing.
"According to the plan his majesty had set depending on the opponents we got we should either fight to kill, delay. if I…..my double had gotten Glen the phoenix I should kill him. Anyone else feigns death, if Shawn got anyone except Elk he should kill them and the same for Rhyno"
Grimm paused for a moment to allow what he said to set in.
"In the end, my double fought Earlon so I only kept him occupied for as long as I needed, Shawn got Elk so he did the same, Rhyno got Glen so he killed him. His Majesty said that the main priority was the survival of Gaza and his family so we should all show some weakness to give Alliance a sense of security"
Once again he paused.
"I'm sure that what I've said was a lot to take in so I will stop here and as for the question you all want to ask after hearing that we left him in the city with three different opponents…...the answer is I don't know"
Azreal kept coughing up blood, his face was devoid of all color as he looked at the gaping hole where his stomach used to me.
"You little bastard!"
Boom!
Earlon stomped down hard on Azrael's head, creating a small crater.
"Didn't you hear me telling you to stop"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He couldn't muster up the slightest bit of energy to form any resistance against Earlon much less to try and heal himself.
