The air was cold as tension rises. Will stared over to his opponent, who is said to be the first king of Hiden. Hiden Deluro. He clicked his tongue just when he heard the name of his opponent.
Raye drew out his sword and pointed it at his opponent, Zeck Sharron son of the fifth generation. His hand was trembling as beads of sweat started forming on his forehead. An infamous killer? Memories of histories rushed into Raye's mind as he goes through every each of them. He suddenly startled as if he remembered something. He has heard this name before, this was a dark history not mentioned publicly but taught in the education of the Kingdom of Verkiz, more specifically, this city.
I'm going up against this guy? Crap...he is no easy opponent...
The gazes of Al, Amethia and Auoun all turned towards the transcendent who leaped around as if he was warming up. Transcendent are beings that surpass the limits of a human. They could easily destroy mountains and fly in the sky without the help of magic. The earliest records of transcendent are during the 7th century. It then spreader all around the world where people would come to visit a specific temple on a mountain. Auoun raised both of his hammers while Al and Amethia both held their staff tightly.
[Be careful when you play~ It is not easy for me to find their bodies and restore them back to their prime state~]
Zeck, lord of the fifth generation's son widened his smile and suddenly appeared in front of Raye. He swings his sword that was once used to be next to his left hip onto Raye. Raye blocked it in ease as he swings back his sword at the reanimated corpse. There is no talking into reanimated corpse.
They are just lifeless beings who are controlled by a master who reanimated them. Zeck dodges the attack in ease by his back somehow stretching to the behind as if he was spineless. Zeck then lowers his head and swings his sword at Raye's legs. Raye leaped up before getting slammed by the hilt of Zeck's sword. He blocked it with the blade of his sword but the impact send Raye crashing onto the corpse's wall.
A loud sound shook the ground as their attentions were drawn into it. Just as Auoun turned his head back onto the transcendent, he was already in front of him and slammed his fist at Auoun's face.
Auoun may be a dwarf, the cursed child of the Doreinberg clan, though transcendent surpasses the limits of human, even to the point of a dwarf. Auoun flew a few feet back before slamming his hammers onto the ground, stopping him from flying further back. Amethia looked over at Auoun where the transcendent, Eun Gimyoung's fist appeared before her face.
Amethia was then also send a few feet back, crashing onto the wall of the dead corpse and bones. She spat out blood as Al rushed towards her. Before he could reach her, Eun Gimyoung had already arrived before he could. Before his fist slams onto Al's face, the dwarf Auoun leaped and blocked the attack with both of his hammers.
The sudden impact create a huge crater below them. Eun Gimyoung's hair fluttered as he released his fist from the hammers. There were visible cracks on the left hammer of Auoun.
Will stared at his opponent, Hiden Deluro. Both did not initiate the battle. Each waiting for the others to start. Among the reanimated corpse summoned by the warlock, Iapetus Torchem, the one Will is facing is the strongest among them all.
Will hesitated but decided to start the battle. Shadow formed around his right hand as a long rod of shadow formed first before a round ball with spikes on the top. The shadow then turned into Will's morning star as he then turned into shadow that moves in neck breaking speed towards the reanimated king and then suddenly flew up.
Will swings his morning star at the first king of Hiden but he just snapped his fingers and then Will suddenly appeared behind him. He then swings his morning star back at Hiden from the behind though the king snapped his fingers once again and Will suddenly appeared above Hiden.
Hiden then slammed his left leg onto Will's body. Although his leg did not came to contact with Will but there was an invisible sphere that made Will's body curved towards it. It sent him back crashing onto the wall where he spat blood onto the ground.
He wiped off the blood on his nose and stood back up. As expected, from the man who once left a single permanent scar on the demon king and earned his recognition.
"How wonderful! How pleasant!"
The warlock, Iapetus Torchem exclaimed as he clapped his hands against each other. He was watching the battle through magical monitors for each dome. His wide, devil like grin never fade as he continue watching the battle drags on.
"Lord, what are we going to do now?"
One of the cloaked asked Iapetus. He looked over to him and reply with a smirk.
"We wait. Right now, this place is a harvest for me! A sword king, a sword empress, and a whole hero party that took down a warlock! I don't really care about the party but having them is basically mocking Enceladus! No one likes that guy."
Iapetus then sit straight on the boned throne as two armrest arises from both sides. He places his elbows against them and crossed his fingers against each other. Finally, he rest his chin on the crossed fingers and speak in a cold tone as if it was from the deepest part of the sea.
"Right now, I want you to kill the sword empress and the sword king then bring them to me,"
The cloaked man nodded and then explained to his comrades about their mission. Iapetus then turned his gaze back to the screen. He then watches the battle between Will Beuratt and the First king of Hiden. He stared at Hiden which he was irritated by one thing. Iapetus first tried searching the body of the demon king back in the Demon King continent.
Having no hope and leads, he decides to search the body of the Shadow Sage, assuming he is dead. Having the same fate, he decides to turn to his last on the list. Since the Demon King continent is closed to the Kingdom of Hiden, he stoled the body of the first Hiden king as a compensation for his waste of time.
"...Let's see how you will go up against the king, bizarre black magic user..."
