Paragon of Death

205 Chapter 204: Struggles of a dying King!

Damon stood with blood-red eyes and his fangs visible while his black aura danced around madly. The wounds on his body were healing but slowly due to the creation of energy remnants in his injuries.

The son of heaven had fewer wounds but his wounds were even more severe than that of Damon. The decay aura could be sensed within his injuries but he made no effort to dispel them. The face of King Robert was calm as he gazed at Damon with profound eyes as if he was about to make a serious decision.

“Your power is great but you lack technique. My suspicion is you grew too fast and failed to notice some basic things that can make a whole world of difference.” King Robert said with a frown and Damon also responded with a frown.

He too could tell his technique was lacking but having someone tell him that was something he found disturbing.

“I will make this known now and say no more. During my time we didn’t kill the death mage because we overwhelmed him or something. We were able to kill him because he had been fatally wounded by the life guardian spirit host and do you know why?” King Robert asked.

Buzzz!

Damon was shaken and his frown deepened. He has always thought of so many things concerning the host who created the blood clan and all that. He remembered that the hosts were all fighting each other while fighting the world’s forces but he has never considered why.

“What do you mean?” Damon felt agitated by the thoughts coming to his mind.

“Life and death are two sides of the same coin but in your case, it is divided and fused into two different people. Imagine if that power returned to one body, how powerful will that being become?” The son of heaven asked.

.....

Hearing this, Damon was shaken by their words and he staggered back. His eyes seemed to have lost their usual confidence and a hint of anxiety could be seen in his soul.

“Regardless of who you are, regardless of what you are. Your power will slowly influence your thoughts when the time is right. You will seek to complete yourself and become the absolute being. That hunger is not something you can control. Neither will he be able to do so. It’s either you make use of this advantage and strike first or let this chance go to waste and become the one who gets betrayed and gets killed” King Robert said with a stern look on his face.

Hearing this, Damon paled and looked away. He couldn’t look anyone in the face as countless thoughts raced through his mind.

Hmph!

“I will deal with that issue when the time comes. For now, let’s focus on what’s important!” Damon scowled as he raced forward!

Swoosh!

His hand tightened its grip on his black scythe while his other hand was thrown forward, releasing a fierce light.

Hell flames!

Boom!

His darkish-green flames raced forward, covering the entire sky. In response, King Robert remained unmoved as he traced his hand across the world and the flames surging around him turned blue!

Burn!

Brrrrrr!

He punched forward and a dragon-shaped flame raced forward, smashing a hole through Damon’s hell flames and racing toward him!

“You are forcing my hands!” Damon said with cruel lights in his eyes as he pulled out a silver and black dual sword from his shadow and pointed the silver sword forward!

“YOU DON’T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO STAND IN MY WAY!” Damon growled coldly as he pulled out the sealed artifact of the ancestral dragon of creation and destruction!

Buzzz!

A powerful suction force erupted from his weapon, greedily swallowing the flames of the target. This sealed artifact makes the user immune to the power of creation and destruction. Attacks embedded in those laws are instantly consumed. That’s why even someone like Damon and Cyrus will lose to anyone wielding this weapon. Luckily it’s now in Damon’s hands and that’s one of the main reasons he wasn’t disturbed by King Robert’s words.

He considered Cyrus a good friend and won’t initiate an attempt on his life consciously. But if he and Cyrus should end up finding themselves in a situation where they must fight each other to the death, Damon refused to be the one who will lose the fight.

Not because he didn’t love his friend but because he felt he had a much greater purpose and that’s why he must live. He is creating a new world. It’s only natural he would want to live and watch over this new world he has created.

Hmph!

Damon brushed those disturbing thoughts aside before diving down like a spear with the death blade in his left hand trembling violently!

Kill!

Darkness swarmed forward like a robe big enough to convert the entire sky

Hmph;

King Robert frowned as his body spiraled backward, hitting the ground before dashing backward!

Flap!

King Robert’s eyes were chilled as he quickly turned but his shadow didn’t move with him!

He quickly threw an open palm towards his shadow and fierce blue flames erupted in the form of a Phoenix and just as he suspected, Damon sprang out of the shadow with the silver blade stabbing forward!

“Your death is inevitable!” Damon bellowed

Swish!

The blade stabbed through the flames and stabbed the son of heaven in the open palm.

Die!

Damon’s eyes squinted as he slashed forward with the black blade, chopping off King Robert’s arm in one go!

Fuck!

King Robert retreated but it was already too late. Damon’s footwork was not inferior to his and he could easily keep up with the escaping king and stabbed forward!

Peng!

Blegh!

King Robert stood with his eyes wide open as he stared at the silver blade stabbing deep into his heart.

“You!” He mumbled as he felt the creation laws under his control flowing into the blade!

“It’s over!” Damon said coldly as he slashed forward with the black blade, aiming to decapitate the old king in one go!

Let me send you off, old man!
