149 Secret Sword 1 (1/2)

Chapter 149: Secret Sword 1

Flamingo frowned for a bit.

”Hmm, alright. What about the Blood of Secrets.”

Duskdune Shura turned the Sword of the Sprites around, and softly popped open the tip of the hilt. Turns out the tip of the hilt hid a small little container, and within it poured out a miniscule amount of dark red blood.

Duskdune Shura skillfully poured the blood into a glass bottle he had in his other hand.

”Here it is. Let’s go, I don’t think this is enough for us to make one portion.”

”That will depend on how pure the blood is.” Flamingo shrugged, and suddenly swung his sword around his back, hitting the now recovered giant sprite, sending her flying once more, and half fainting again.

”Have the sword!” Duskdune Shura threw the Sword of the Sprites to Flamingo.

Catching the Sword of the Sprites, Flamingo threw away his original weapon and stroked its length with his hand.

”Worlds Will Moan, Sprites Begone!”

HUUMMMMM

The runes on the Sword of the Sprites started glowing along the path his hand stroked. One by one they glowed a bright red until the entire sword was glowing and shaking, making the sound of a low hum and transforming into a bright red longsword.

The red glow from the sword was so bright it illuminated the surroundings of Flamingo until even Flamingo himself was a bright red.

”This is….!!” Garen took a few steps back, his face now filled with rare fear. He had seen great warriors like Duskdune Shura, and he has also met skilled swordsmen like the Eight-Arm Dragon King. Heck, he’s even met powerful werewolves that were only known to legends; yet now, for once, he was afraid.

Flamingo brandished the sword in his hand like a magical light show, it was of such magnificence that Garen couldn’t help but skip a breath now and then. The sight, was truly one to behold, almost like magic!

Flamingo grimaced, and raised the sword high up.

”End!”

The red light suddenly reached a scorching brightness, Flamingo lightly swung it.

SLASH!!!

A bright red curve formed from that swing, and it started to fly towards the giant sprite. The sprite seemed like she was trying to escape, but she simply wouldn’t move, and could only watch in despair as the red curve came close and slashed through her waist.

Without a sound, the sprite started falling into two pieces separated between the waistline, and fell onto the ground. The parts where her waist used to be was now two clean cuts, smooth like polished metal.

The red curve also dimmed out and disappeared after the slash.

The Sword of the Sprites in Flamingo’s hand also dimmed out. His face looked like he was incredibly tired, it seems that the sword consumes a great amount of energy to wield.

Celine was now completely stunned, she could only stare at the Sword of the Sprites with silent alert.

”Should we still try to pick a fight?” She whispered to Garen

He hesitated, and observed the duo before responding in doubt.

”This is not right.”

He walked up and blocked the exit of the duo.

”What? Do you want to fight us?” Flamingo looked at Garen doubtfully. Flamingo didn’t look as chill as he was before, his fight with Beo’s Slash Brigade trio earlier definitely injured him internally. He’s not a user of hard Qi, and had obviously been injured by a good amount of heavy firepower. Not to mention he had just used his remaining energy to use the Sword of the Sprites to rid the giant sprite, he must be heavily injured now.

Garen took a look at the Sword of the Sprites in Flamingo’s hand, he was definitely still heavy hearted.

”Well, you seem to have sustained some pretty heavy injuries, so I will not fight you. Duskdune Shura, my request is simple, tell me what’s the use of the blood and give me the Golden Sword Throne, it is the relic key for this area.”

Duskdune Shura’s old face made no expression, ”Nice observation skills, I’m surprised you could tell we’re heavily injured.”

”Just give it to me, I would rather not take advantage of your situation now, but consider this time as a bad miscalculation in your strategy. I’m not sure why you wanted to bait us in here, but this does not affect my need to achieve my final objective.” Garen stepped up, his eyes slightly drooping, his body emitted a surge of intimidating energy. He was adjusting his stance and summoning his hardening Qi, he wasn’t sure if the Sword of the Sprites in the hands of Flamingo could cut him, but he was willing to try.

Should a fight break out, for sure both sides would end up heavily injured. Garen might be unscathed for now, but he was still outnumbered, so even though the both of them are heavily injured, he still doesn’t stand a healthy chance.

Duskdune Shura started laughing.

”I’ll let you win this time.” He straight took out the palm sized Golden Sword Throne and threw it at Garen, ”What a pity, if it wasn’t for those rascals messing up my setup outside, perhaps we could have…...Ah screw it, let’s not talk about it. We will meet again, goodbye.”

”Goodbye.” Garen caught the Golden Sword Throne, and smiled for abit. He gave way and watched as the two of them left in a single file.

”Let’s follow them out,” Garen turned around and told Celine.

Celine nodded in agreement.

The two of them turned around to look at everyone around the room, after a short moment of hesitation, Garen lifted a member of the Slash Brigade in each of his hands, and took quick steps to follow up with Duskdune Shura and Flamingo.

”Be careful, if I’m not wrong, coming in may have been easy, going out is most likely going to be tougher.” Celine reminded Garen.

Garen nodded, and at this moment Beo and the bearded man in his arms started to come to.

”That rascal Duskdune Shura, I WILL KILL HIM ONE DAY!” The bearded man moaned softly as he slowly awoke.

”You better take care of yourself first,” Garen said, ”So many of you versus the two of them, not to mention you even had a giant sprite on your side, yet they still managed to leave in one piece.”

”Let go of me!” the bearded man yelled, ”Who do you think you are? Do you even know how powerful Duskdune Shura and Flamingo are?!”

”What’s wrong with you? Garen saved you, and yet you don’t even thank him!” Celine glared at him sternly.
