Chapter 935: Pain
The twins are looking at the King from afar as they observed his symptoms. According to Sam, the pain will only get worse for the next few worse.
And they have to make a move only when the King tries to cut his hand off but fails, that is the best time for them to make their move as that would be the time the pain receptors reach the highest sensitivity.
Before the symptoms reached that point, Sam already arrived and took a look.
They had to wait for a good half-an-hour before they could make their move and this time, Sam didn't go himself into the field, he just flew upwards on the Sky as he looked down through the telescope.
The twins arrived in front of the King as he was about to chop his arm off, but the very little contact made him unable to continue. The small slash he left on it created a lot of pain and faint bleeding and he could only grit his teeth and endure as he took deep breaths.
The rest of the posse didn't even dare to come near him and disturb him and when the twins came and they felt their auras, they are even more stunned.
"Solar Fragments? What are you doing here?"
The King got vigilant and for a moment, he even forgot all about the pain. He took out his staff and raised his aura.
The twins didn't speak and the King continued.
"I know you guys. You are the bastard twins from the Solar fragments. Why are you here? Answer me, or your tribe might need to answer that later."
"No need to answer with words when we can do that with actions," Agar spoke and made a move first.
She directly went to full fire elemental fusion as she lunged towards the King who started spinning his staff with the wind element.
Both of them exchanged blows and when the hit connected, the King felt like his whole world is collapsing. In normal times, he wouldn't have even flinched when he was attacked like this, but now he felt like his whole body is burning in a furnace which made him close his eyes flinch as he lost focus.
Agar has no mind to not take advantage of that and she placed her palm on his chest before blasting a large golden fireball.
The King flew back as he groaned in pain. He could feel each muscle fiber burning up. This is torturous than any torture he put through.
If a seasoned warrior was in his place, he would have retreated. But this guy is not thinking straight from the withdrawal symptoms and he became angry because of the pain, but before he could get up, Argan landed from upwards and he cannonballed himself into the same spot of the chest with a large ball of fire under his legs.
A large crater appears on the ground with the King's body as the center and this time, the groaning became screaming for his life.
The twins took this as an advantage and constantly rained fire on the guy, keeping him in the pit without letting him come out of it.
The King felt his mind go numb. He stopped thinking clearly a long time ago, but he knew one thing, if things go wrong, he would be dying right there and then. He didn't want that to happen no matter what.
As he felt his flesh slowly burning with the golden flames, he shook himself out of his painful daze and used his wind elemental energy to block the incoming flame and as soon as he found the opening, he ran out and turned to escape.
He couldn't care less about the pride and face. As long as he was alive and as long as this painful phase is over, he can just go there and kill the whole Solar Fragment tribe if he wants to.
The twins started running after him as well and on their chase, the King destroyed the vegetation completely while the twins burned the same vegetation to ashes.
The twins started throwing ranged attacks which sometimes landed and sometimes missed. But every time it landed, they grew closer to the king who is already panting and sweating like crazy.
At this moment, as the King was running, he saw something in the front.
The former Queen before Aina. The Queen he killed when he was lost in lust.
He has seen that rear many times and he is seeing it now. If his mind was any clearer, he might have avoided it, but he is in desperation and he ran towards her. As soon as laid his hand on her back, the Queen turned over and stabbed a knife in his guts before biting him in the neck.
The king didn't even yell in pain this time. He couldn't even breathe properly. He almost went into a shock like that.
He finally managed to take a look at the Queen and then only he noticed the anomaly. The wounds he inflicted are still there but since they are mostly internal, he subconsciously ignored them. The one in front of him is an undead.
For some reason, he felt extremely angry. Angry at himself, angry at his lustful behavior and angry at the twins who are chasing him, and angry at the necromancer who used the Queen to be their tool.
He pulled the knife out of his guts and threw the undead away before turning back with his staff. He completely gave up. Since there is a high chance he would die, he might as well go all out in the battle.
As the twins ran towards him, he ran towards the twins with full speed while spinning his staff crazily.
When he was few feet away from them, he swung his staff in the air which created a massive wind blade that went towards the twins which they dodged easily. But in that brief moment, the King used wind elemental fusion and rode the wind as he appeared behind Argan and swung his staff.
The staff landed right on his back and the air cannon at the end made his organs shake inside his body as he crashed into the ground creating a crater.
But the cost of it is that Agar managed to sneak to his rear before slapping her palm on the neck bit he got just a moment and dug her fingers into it before burning it with golden fires.
"AAAAHHHHHHHH…"
He yelled in pain and could feel each cell in his throat burning up and by the end of the attack, he lost his voice and couldn't speak or yell.
But he still didn't give up, he swung his staff backward and the end of it grazed past her torso which caused a laceration and she fell backward as he lost her balance.
The King jumped towards and tried to slam the staff on her head and finish it with a single strike. The chaotic wind energy in the staff is an easy indication of that. But before he could land it, Argan came from the side and shoved his arm into the stab wound, and hugged him from the rear before firing it up.
The King couldn't even yell in pain as he almost felt like dying and be done with it. Almost.
Before he gave up, he suddenly changed his mind and gritted his teeth to throw an elbow and the head or Argan, which he tried to dodge, but the wind blade that was a result of the elbow couldn't be dodged as it sliced his temple and the nose a bit which caught him off guard and made him leave the guy.
By now the King became crazy, he used his full power without care for preservation or escape plan and directly attacked the duo in close combat, but the staff and the wind elemental strikes are much deadlier than the wind attacks he threw from a certain range.
Even on his last legs, this guy is an absolute beast. He started inflicting the wounds and the twins continuously, even though they are small, they are accumulating and create some serious trouble for them.
But almost couldn't avoid them. Every move turned into a Kamikaze. Every attack is being aimed at mutual destruction. It would be really hard to fight off a person like that. Particularly, when one is as strong as the King.
After a few minutes, the twins stood on one side and the King stood on the other, both not making a move. Now the twins are also panting and bleeding crazily but King is a lot worse. Many parts of his flesh are burned and they can even see the ribs on his torso.
He can only make one last move which is also the reason the twins became careful.
But at this moment, there is a large colorful explosion in the sky which made the Twins smile and the King frown. He couldn't understand while an explosion like that would happen at a moment like this. But before he could make sense, he saw someone falling from the sky. He couldn't make the silhouette but all he could see is that person is incomplete black color.
But he felt that person is stupid, not because of the height he was coming from, but because it is too eye-catching and extremely easy to spot which led him to a question. Why are the twins smiling?
