Chapter 425: Apna time aaega
"If you tell me where that bastard is hiding, and what he's planning in Harendale, I can give you a swift death, otherwise.."
"Bold words. But let's see if you can fulfil them first."
Amy was speaking when the leader interrupted her with a snort. His tone and attitude making it clear that neither her strength nor her threats made him fear her.
Perhaps if it was her brother, Rio, the blessed angel, maybe then he'd have a different expression. But for this little girl, _ humph, he didn't take it seriously at all.
After all, how can he, cause when she wasn't even born, he was already fucking 16 sexies like her with a single shot.
Men may not be the superior strength race in this world of fantasy, but that didn't change the pride and ego that came with having a dick. As a wiseman on twitter once said, Balls Breeds Bravery. And women don't have them.
(Cough cough definitely not my thoughts. I swear upon the heavens.) _ zrrrrrr ⚡... )
"As you wish." Amy said as she raised her hand, and with a twist of her fingers, she bent the space around her. The nearest follower stumbled, disoriented as the walls and floor warped, starting to twist in unnatural angles. Amy lunged forward, her invisible dagger flashing as she drove them into her opponent's chest, piercing his heart. The man gasped, his hands clawing at the air as he crumpled to the ground. Disbelief written all over his face.
Another follower attacked from behind, and Amy turned, her movements erratic but powerful. She swung her sword in a wide arc, the tinge of elemental mana enhancing it's edges. Her blade collided with the woman's weapon, shattering it with a burst of energy that sent the woman staggering back, blood dripping from a cut across her cheek.
"You know, I heard your brother's in Harendale too. Perhaps it's fate that both Blake siblings will die in our hands. End the story that began years ago."
"You dare..."
"He's going in the Eisher domain. I gotta say he's gutsy considering what happened the last time he entered a dungeon. Tsk tsk tsk, it'll be a real pity if he got trapped this time too, right."
"Tell me, if this dungeon crashed, _ can he survive, or will his good luck finally run out?"
The leader ignored the massacre of his teammates, he was entirely focused on taunting Amy, fueling her anger. Trying to disrupt her emotions and let her go mad.
At first he was just mocking her, trying to add fuel to her insecurities and weakness, hoping to overwhelm her with numbers and numb her down with enough adrenaline rush. As they say a warrior often loses himself in a war_ but hearing the sound of continuous explosions happening outside he could guess that the princess and her friends would soon wake up and come here too, so he upped his game.
Since he couldn't hit her self esteem in a short time, he simply started going after her soft side.
"You hear your friends struggling outside? They'll die too. Tell me, are you the legendary pig teammate? Cause every time you jump out, people around you pay the price. The last time it was your brother, and now these three."
The leader raised his hand, grabbing her neck till his nails pierced her skin and then threw her back.
The woman staggered back as she tried to stop herself, a low hoarse growl escaping her throat as her wounds healed instantly. She glared at the leader, her eyes turning into dangerous slits.
But the leader just snorted and met her gaze without backing down.
"Your hole down there will only get you so far Gina. Gyandel isn't here to cover your ass, so don't forget your place. Goddess Apate gave me the lead, so if you don't wanna die, you'll better lay in line." The leader spoke, his tone mocking, filled with undisguised disgust.
His words made the girl grit her teeth, her chest heaving high and low as the levels of anger made her suffocate. But knowing that this bastard was mocking her to force her into making a move, so he can justifiably kill her, she just clenched her hands and forced her anger down.
Seeing that his provocation failed, the leader just clicked his tongue, "Go and hold back that princess and her maids. I'll handle her myself." He said and turned around without waiting for an answer.
"Humph, you've even shown her your true form, now if she lives, or somehow escapes to foil the goddess's plan,_ I'll be sure to rip your heart and gift it to Gyandel." The woman, Gina said coldly before stomping on the ground and leaving.
Gyandel, Gina, and Rhodes - these were the 3 of the favorite young people for goddess Apate. Talents whom she groomed personally and gave command of her cult to.
Years ago when Gyandel finished his mission to hunt down 30 elite talents first and became Apate's avatar, this had caused a rift in the trio who were as close as siblings otherwise. And later when, Gina and Gyandel got together secretly, it only fueled the jealousy of Rhodes even more.
Rhodes didn't care about Gina's threat and looked back at Amy, seeing the changing expression on her face, sometimes sad and sometimes angry, and then as the illusory shadow of chaos crown started flickering on her forehead _ a smile came to his face.
'See this Gyandel, the one whom you failed to kill, is now entirely at my mercy.'
'Goddess Apate, I'll soon finish my mission. Don't worry, I'll be sure to raise your glorious name even higher when you choose me tomorrow.'
Rhodes dreamed of the moment when he'd kill Gyandel and fuck Gina over his corpse, and become Apate's avatar afterwards. His thoughts filled with the dreams of a beautiful future ahead, not at all aware that the goddess whom he trusted so much was never known for being honest.
To Apate everything was for entertainment. And everyone was a puppet who danced over her whispers to make her laugh.
[Don't be so relaxed. Don't make any mistakes.]
Apate's words woke Rhodes up again, as he nodded his head hurriedly on the surface, but his heart still couldn't take Amy seriously at all.
"My time is coming soon." He said and smiled heartfully. (Apna Time Aaega)
