Emperor's Reckoning

Chapter 201 - Desperate Attack



A flash that crossed the sky fell on the spectators' eyes as Kyoko and the first king made their first contact. The city rumbled as the force was enough to shook the entire kingdom.

Ryona smiled at the sight before she turned back to see a man was running toward them. With a smile, she leaped and brutally disappeared from his sight.

Zeth's pupil shrunk as the bit of the ax that was so sharp that hardly anyone could discern the point, suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Zephyr!"

A gentle wind suddenly pushed his figure to the side, effectively avoiding the imminent death.

His forehead immediately sweated as he gulped. He was panting as he never felt so close to death before. His legs shook like a scared dog, if he didn't call out his sentient weapon, he would surely die right there and then.

*boom

The ax landed on the ground as dust scattered from the impact. Though she missed the target, the street was wrecked by the sheer force of her swing.

As the final rubble from the devastated street fell down, Ryona retracted her ax and calmly faced him.

"I see, those green boots are your sentient weapon, or should I say armor?" chuckled Ryona.

His figure shook as he realized that the opponent this time was far from the other three. (As long as I got Zephyr, she won't be able to kill me).

Wiping his sweat, he readied his stance. He needed the utmost concentration to deal with this woman, otherwise, he got no hope of surviving. Despite her vulgar appearance, she aimed at the vital spots in the split second she saw him.

*ding

*boom

Suddenly, something was hitting the palace at enormous speed. The ruined palace was further wrecked into an unrepairable state as rubbles falling down.

Sylviana looked up before she heaved a sigh of relief. Kyoko was still in the air, which means, the one that fell must be.

"Ancestor!" wailed Drake as the last hope he was betting on seemed to lost its light.

However, the battle was not over yet as Kyoko absorbed the nearby mana.

"It's a shame that the real you is not present, otherwise, the war would definitely end with our loss."

Her tail wagged a little as she smiled cheekily before she wrote the spell in a graceful manner.

"Divine Magic, Ice Coffin!"

Just as the first king got out from the rubble, his face immediately met with a blue magic brand. His nose started to solidify with the chilling freeze of ice. The effect slowly spread to his entire body, but despite so, he emotionlessly moved forward and launched his assault.

"It's over," said Kyoko.

Just as the fist about to reach her beautiful face, the first king was fully frozen. She lightly pushed the ice sculpture before it fell down.

*break

The first king broke into pieces as it did with Drake's last hope.

"No no no, NO!" the king wailed as he flew into a crazed state.

Fei raised her eyebrows as she immediately pushed Sylviana away, "Miss lookout!

*splurt

The sword penetrated her palm and crossed her right eye. Blood was spurting out but she managed to stay alive as the sword didn't make it to her brain.

Sylviana's figure shook as her lips vibrate. She struggled to make out that the scene in front of her was real.

"Tch! You are lucky the poison will kill you in my stead," said the king as he retracted his sword.

Fei's figure slowly fell down as her right vision was no longer there, "S-stay safe, little Sylv."

*thud

"Chance!" muttered Zeth as he quickly used the distraction and appeared behind Sylviana.

"Crap!" Ryona was a half-step too late.

Kyoko slowly descended down. Now the situation was not in their favor, the enemy got a hostage to bargain.

Zeth held her neck as he put a knife near her head, "Bring me Lyon or, heh, you know what happens."

Sylviana was looked lifeless as dread sets in. Her eyes couldn't escape from the lying loyal figure that has been on her side since forever. She didn't feel the strangle as her mind was occupied with something else.

You are always there for me.

Always kind, always educating me to be a proper ruler.

Despite the laziness that I have, the weakness that I possessed.

Never once have you failed your duty.

But I always failed you.

The scar, I know, it was from me.

But you still love me even after I did that.

I owe you too much.

You are more than just my personal maid, you are my precious friend.

"What do you want with hubby?" asked Ryona while furrowing her eyebrows.

"To join the Legion of course, he would surely raise up to the top ranks in few decades!" chuckled Zeth.

"Legion? Please, he alone could destroy them whole in a few years," said Ryona.

"Tsk, tsk, not if he joined us, of course, if he won't comply, I will take this girl instead, as a bargaining chip,"

"You lowlife!"

"Hah, that kind of insult won't infuriate me, besides, don't you want to kill the king in the meantime?"

"You! We had a deal!"

"What you? We were never allies and you never got the chance to win in the first place!"

"So-rry," under their bickering, a muttered voice was heard.

Zeth furrowed his eyebrows as he knew where the voice came from. "What did you say?"

"-ung-"

"NIR!" Her eyes suddenly opened wide as she grinned at the man who held her hostage straight in the eye.

*boom

A black thunder from the empty sky suddenly struck them both. The ground was crackling with electricity as Zeth was already embedded in the nearby wall.

*spark

At the center of the impact, stood a woman of the royal bearing. Her black hair fluttered against the wind as she held the proud black spear with ease. She slowly approached the king of Heavens Down who was stricken by fear.

The king instinctively took a step back before he tripped and stumbled down.. His face looked up as the beautiful mistress of death greeted him with a crazed smile.
