Chapter 577: Against the King as the Queen (1/2)

Sam merely smiled at Kartikeya's reminder and let him make move and Sam's next move is for him to attack the king with his queen.

This time, Sam didn't behave like a madman or a maniac, instead, he behaved calmly and went back to his ninety percent light element fusion form. But this time, he didn't take out the staff, instead, he took out the Executioner sword.

There is a reason why wouldn't use this blade normally. Because it was nurtured with hydra's blood and it has an extensive bleed effect on the wounds along with some wicked corrosive effect. In a normal fight, even before he could enjoy the bout, he was already kicking the ass of his opponents. So, with this blade, it will be all too easy.

So, he wouldn't use it. But since he is going against one of the best, he has to be at his best. He has to use all his tricks up his sleeve and that is why he made sure to damage Kartikeya dearly even at the cost of sacrificing himself.

But now, there is no longer a need for that. His aim in the last two rounds is to create as many wounds on Kartikeya as possible and preferably all of them on the hands and he did attack the hands and they are still bleeding.

As for the left hand, it has even severe wounds because of Sam's repeated attack.

This is the best chance Sam could have. Kartikeya has around twenty-two and a little more of the health bars and Sam's queen health is twenty-five and it has full health since he didn't use it in a battle.

He held the sword tightly as he looked at Kartikeya who is extremely vigilant and held his spear in a battle stance.

The first thing Sam did is activate the eye technique to its limit. He already felt the energy ripple attacks of Kartikeya before and there is something wrong with them.

It is a style on par with the Void style, but they completely work in different principles.

He is a bit afraid of that and has to vary that. He started circulating void style all over his body. He has to use every single means he has on him to get a victory.

Sam launched himself forward and even before he reached the opponent, he already slashed the sword once.

A light blade escaped from the edge of the blade and went straight to his opponent's throat.

But before it landed, Kartikeya wielded his spear to destroy the light blade in the middle, but that didn't come without a cost, the void style creates a void that causes the explosion and as soon as the spear and the light blade came into contact the opponent was pushed back by a few inches.

Kartikeya smiled and moved forward as Sam is already there.

Sam didn't use light blades anymore and directly engaged in close combat.

His moves are all tricky as he aimed for one part and as Kartikeya was about to block the strike, he diverted it.

And he is hitting every part that he can get a hold of. And after an exchange of more than a hundred moves, Sam finally made a slash on Kartikeya's left arm. The cloth tied to reduce the bleeding was torn and only a small gash was left on top of the already existing wound.

The corrosive effect kicked in and the skin surrounding the wound and even the wound itself started turned purple, albeit slowly.

Kartikeya didn't seem to care too much though, he only took a glance due to the pain, other than that he didn't do anything but circulate the energy to aid the natural healing of the wound. Because he didn't have time to care as Sam is not willing to let him relax.

Sam attacked as if he is a rabid dog not giving him a chance, but the attacks are not done in madness. They just looked like that.

After another hundred moves in which Sam got some wounds, he managed to injure Kartikeya one more time, and this time, it was on the leg. Sam slashed through the calf muscle.

Kartikeya frowned and the energy started changing. Sam didn't deactivate the eye technique and he could see the energy ripples. He immediately activated Void style.

The energy wave passed through his body and entered the sword as it clashed with the spear, but at the point of contact, there is an energy ripple trying to push him back as if it is trying to throw him as far as it could.

But the explosion of the energy neutralized the energy and both attacks nullified each other.
