Chapter 466 - Tomb of the thousand armed asura (Part-6) (1/2)
Ryuu let out a soft sigh as he looked at the group of contraptions in front of him, contraptions that were not limited to simple blades, or guillotine or pendulum blades but arrows, fire, wind not to mention the walls themselves were moving.
Ryan watched them for a minute before he shook visibly with his head down making the others worried for him as Frost Flames spoke to him with concern laced in her tone, ”Ryuu are you alright? You are shaking.”
Ryuu raised his head as a big smile appeared on his face as he spoke with a burst of deranged laughter, ”Finally finally I get to be a real-life Persian Prince, and finally, I can fulfil my long-cherished wish, muahahaha.”
True-Spear took a step back as he spoke with a slight shake of his voice, ”Sisters please slowly take a step away from him as I think he has finally cracked.”
His words brought immediate retort courtesy of Ryuu, ”Who has finally cracked, I am alright.”
Frozen Ocean raised one of her elegant brows as she spoke, ”Is that so? But you insane laughter and spouting about some Prince says otherwise after all, in essence, you are already a prince.”
Ryuu blushed a healthy shade of red from Frozen Ocean's words as he spoke with a cough, ”Well it was a story that I had heard a long time ago my childhood favourite and I always wanted to experience it, and seeing the trap ahead of us just reminded me of it.”
True-Spear rolled his eyes as he spoke, ”So will do the honours then.”
Ryan sighed as he spoke, ”Seems like it.”, he then let go of both Frozen Ocean and Frost Flames who immediately sat down leaning on the wall, while Su-Min was laid by their side with the help of True-Spear.
Ryuu then looked at the others who had decided to follow their example, while he could easily spot the looks of tiredness and hopelessness in some of their faces making him sigh inwardly, 'This is mentally and physically draining us to the maximum, the pangs of hunger and the scorching thirst are becoming unbearable and with no sign of retreat we have to push forward, even if one of us manages to conquer this level we would be safe.'
With that thought in mind, Ryuu began to do some stretches to make his muscle more limber as everyone watched him, some with interest while others with a bored look on their faces.
A few minutes later Ryuu stood tall as he spoke with a smirk, ”Well then I am off.”
Frost Flames frowned as she spoke, ”Please take care and try not to overdo.”
Ryuu simply flashed Frost Flames a smile before he took a deep breath to calm himself down and focusing on the task ahead.
He watched as a few footholds appeared then returned to the wall he watched it intently to get the rhythm and once he was sure he began with a running start.
The first foothold was almost inside the wall when Ryuu had reached it, his left feet touched it barely but it was enough to propel him forward and soon he reached the eight and the last foothold which was about to reach its maximum length, but he could not stop there just barely enough to plot a path so as not to lose the momentum be began to move.
Jumping on to a nearby wall just a few inches of a serious of saw-tooth blades waiting to cut him up, he managed to run up on the wall for a few distances before jumping towards another ledge on the opposite direction then diving and swinging using the beam as a pendulum blade missed his head by a couple of centimetres.
Meanwhile, True-Spear could not help let out a whistle of appreciation as he spoke with a look of complete resolution on his face, ”I was right he evolved to human from some monkey species.”
Only to be greeted by a small rock hitting his head as Zywia spoke, ”Shut up, he is human through and through, though now I am curious about what kind of training his teachers had made him do to make him so agile not to mention his movements is it some kind of technique or skill.”
”Actually, no I do not believe it is some kind of technique or skill per se.”
Zywia looked towards Frozen Ocean as she spoke in a curious tone, ”Why is not?”
