Chapter 214 - RECLAIM II (2/2)
Not to mention his army also has many Energy Disperse Stage Middle Realm because of the pills in the dark market.
They waited, for the reinforcement but then a cracking sound pierce the uneasiness in their hearts.
Thunder and lightning rack the skies as black clouds roils and covers the previously calm blue skies.
BOOM!
The sound shakes everyone heart as they knew this is not the reinforcement they were waiting for, as all their face paled.
Some have trembling all over their body and some fall down in shock hearing such a shocking sound.
Artur got up from his throne again as he saw the dark clouds and he thought to himself
'Fuck. I had it with this. I need to run'
The soldiers in the inside of the Palace grip their weapons and are ready to engage the enemy regardless of the fear in their hearts.
The mood was unusually nervous and strict. Then with another sound of thunder, two black dots appeared in the sky, as everyone's hearts jumped.
'Shit, he has come!' Artur cursed as he got up and almost fall down from the stairs of his throne.
Tyrone know he could no longer shift his responsibilities. So, he close his eyes, take a deep breath as the visage of his old commander flashed inside his mind.
'Raymond always seems so strong and fearless' he thought to himself. He smiles for a bit as he opens his eyes, the previous fears and uneasiness disappears like the wind.
He immediately went out and jump down from the balcony landing on the courtyard as he shouted
'Prepare to fight the invaders!!'
Artur was ready to teleport away when a cold voice resounded all over the sky of Poland.
This voice disturb the vibration of energy and seems to even tamper with the Laws that govern this world.
'Seal Space!'
The voice was like a decree as one could feel the Laws of the World slightly shifted.
Artur ignore the voice and run down from his throne and took one of the Teleport Stone he prepared beforehand.
The other advisors seeing even their king has intention to abandoned the Palace also follow suits as they all produced their own Teleport Stone as Artur look at them dumbfounded.
It seems he was not the only one who thought of running.
Teleport stone is expensive but for people like the King and his minister they could afford to buy it from the Golden Syndicate.
Artur looking at his minister that were all ready to flee could not help but jeer on them. They were already preparing to run Artur thought to himself.
Artur then crush the teleport stone and he waits for that sensation of teleporting take over him when his face fell.
When he opens his eyes, he found in his shock that he did not teleport anywhere.
He was still standing at the same place
The same thing is happening to the minister and all over Krakow Center for those people that want to teleport away.
Then they all looked at each other with dumbfounded expression before fear seeps in their heart.
They then remembers the voice.
Seal Space!
Could it be the Death Monarch could even seal Space preventing them from teleporting! This time everyone face turns pale like corpse as they all trembles and some fainted on the spot.
Artur then knows he no longer have any choice
'Get up! We have no other choice. We just have to surrender!' But before he could say another word, another General look towards Artur.
This General name is General Shinji and used to work under the Thunder Monarch Oreki.
He was six feet five, wearing a samurai armor, with clear pale white skin and have thin physique.
His body did not emit any fluctuation of power almost like he was a normal man. Yet, there is something that in dissonance with the way energy flow through him.
It was almost like he did not exist.
But when he spoke it was like his existence was the only thing that is present in the throne room.
He was the only one who was calm during all the chaos, not that anybody notice. He shouted to Artur
'Artur, the moment you surrender, this General will reap your head! Either you win, or you die!' Shinji said as he unsheathe his sharp katana, the sharpness could be seen by the sound it emitted when it was unsheathed
The shing sound of his katana bear down on the entire throne room as even the tile crack beneath the feet of General Shinji.
Sword intent exploded as sharp energy burst slices through the pillars of the throne room leaving a clean slice mark
He did not even call Artur King, he straight up said his name disregarding his title.
This General once ruled the entire Kansai region before he was transferred because he offended Hikigaya.
He is dutiful and loyal. And that is his problem. And the reason why he was transferred. Artur who was ready, gulp. This time, one of the minister shouted back
'You dar-'he was about to scold Shinji when that katana moves and the minister head flies off from his body, rolling forward on the now red drenched tiles of the throne room.
That slice even slices one of the pillars of the throne room but it did not fall simply because of how fast and flawless that slicing attack was.
If anyone were to push that pillar, that pillar would surely fall down.
This time everyone shut up and look at this General in a new light. He was always silent and suddenly today this General suddenly explodes.
'Ok! Ok! I won't surrender' Artur shouted, his eyes did not leave the katana as he was gulping in fear.
This time he was stuck in between two powerful entity.
Now, even his life isn't his anymore.
As the internal struggle inside the throne room is being settled with the forceful method of General Shinji that little black dot on the sky arrived with quick speed.
On the sky, two person could be seen approaching while only a hundred cavalry on the ground as their warhorses stomping the ground with ferocity.
Shinji tighten his grip on his katana, his eyes survey the throne room looking to kill anyone who wishes to sully the name of the World Government.
Meanwhile, on the palace ground, Tyrone is preparing himself to meet the hundred men that Azief has brought.
Artur still standing, is now sweating on his back.
The enemy were clearly could not even be considered an army but with the powerful display of such terrifying theatrics that is assaulting the Heaven and Earth, it made people feel as though there were tens of thousands demons from hell that is roaring and is about to charge at them.
Everyone's hearts uncontrollably shook!
With the thunders roaring, and the lightning that accompanied that hellish looking steed of the Death Monarch, it almost seems like there is nothing in Heaven and Earth that could stop this force
But Tyrone still unsheathe his saber, and Shinji still readied his stance. Artur could see these two is truly loyal to the World Government.
As the Death Monarch and the Snow Princess slowly about to reach the Protection Dome all the people inside Center Krakow become stern and nervous.
The bellowing thunder did not stop as even the wind roars like an anguished beast.
The ministers also have managed to calm themselves down and their eyes become determined. They already could not teleport out and they could not surrender.
Either they die under the blade of the World Government or the Death Monarch, they would die either way.
If that is true why not try fighting and maybe a chance would open for them to escape?
It was then Azief suddenly stop, his body only one meter away from the protection barrier.
And Katarina also stops.
The white mist that always materialize beneath her feet hardened and solidified creating a platform for her to stand on the air.
The wind around her hardened and snow falls down like winter has come again. The snow originate from her platform but the surrounding areas slowly become cold.
Azief then take a deep breath, calming his mind, his Divine Sense survey the area. Then he look down.
It was a simple action.
And Azief didn't mean anything by it.
He simply look down because he is high beyond the city. So, he look down. But in the eyes of the weak, his action was like a God looking down upon mortals.
The fact Azief did not even bother hiding his aura make himself even more formidable and almost seem to be undefeatable.
As he silently look down, the thunder keep roaring, and lightning exploded in the background behind him like it was his backdrop.
With his action of him looking down, it was like he was a God that comes down from his realm to exact his wrath upon disobedient creation.
Azief look coldly down and he said
'Civilians of Center Krakow. Enter you home and shut the door. I will not inflict any harm to those that stay in their home. Those who is outside don't blame me for being ruthless.'
Tyrone who was in the courtyard uses his Artifact to fly on the air, looking at Azief, who is standing only one meter away from the protection Barrier.
Then looking in front of him, his face turns grim as he look toward that towering figures and he said
'What do you want Death Monarch? Let us talk.' Katarina looking at this attitude could only scoff.
Azief, like always…have that expressionless face.
His eyes was cold as he look back at Tyrone.
Thunder boomed once again as it lights up the dark and showing that terrifying figure on the sky of Center Krakow.
Floating on the air with such a fearsome aura emanating out of him, overbearing to the extreme, and looking at the world with disdain, there is no one in this world that could imitate such actions.
Today, Azief will make the name Death Monarch to be spoken in the four corners of the world. Today, is the day he reclaim back the title of the strongest.
