Chapter 452 – Mega War (13) : My Name Is Shakuni Won Knight
Aman was struggling , as his levels skyrocketed once more , now being above 400 , nearly 75% of the way to becoming tier 5. Considering he was barely 310 before today , the single day increase in his strength was incredible.
However the gains did not come without the pain , as currently he felt like every cell of his body was on fire , as his body could not handle Lucifer"s mana.
If it was not for Micheal helping him stay alive. He would already have blasted his mana circuit and probably become Lucifer"s puppet at this point. However , even Micheal had his limits , being millions of killometers away , while Aman had a direct link with Lucifer.
Lucifer quite enjoyed the suffering of both Aman and Micheal , as he could feel the divine presence helping the boy stay healthy. To him this was also a win , as the body he would inherit would now have a stable mana circuit , meaning he could display even more of his prowess.
Hence he did not disturb Micheal , but only taunted him from time to time , as the two divine ent.i.ties locked gazes . Even being seperated by about half the planet , the hate and disgust was still evident.
Lucifer was just going to take over Aman"s body , when out of nowhere his connection with Aman was broken. Someone seemingly sliced the stone tower in half , and Lucifer was annoyed.
The perpetrator was ofcourse Emperor Cervantez , who now had to desperately hold himself from vomitting a mouthful of blood . He was done for , this slash was the last bit of his strength , and the world was now spinning under the cloud he was standing on .
Emperor Cervantez did not want to look weak , and on the surface n.o.body could make out that he was in such a deplorable state however , in reality he had hit his mental and physical limit. Only through sheer will was he standing right now.
This was basically the scenario of every soldier on the battlefield . The intense battle had lasted for 18 long hours , and now everyone was exhausted as the sun was down.
The Hazelgroove forces had finally emerged victorious as neither the undead not the demon"s were left in numbers even in four digits. Only a few hundered independent stragglers were left here and there.
Rudra however was unwilling to let the war end without giving his last solar beam to Aman. His mind unlike his tired body was at its sharpest , as his primal instincts took over.
Rudra"s current aura could only be said to be ferocious and nothing else , as even Elites moved out of his way as he walked towards the part of the forest where Aman was.
The moment the stone tower was cut in half , Aman slowly started to stabilize as Micheal helped him to get rid off the excess energy in his body . Resulting in Aman finally getting up stronger than ever , even though his body ached all over , he could feel strength beyond comprehension flow through his veins.
Aman looked towards the sky , and saw Cervantez staring at him , and he could feel his heart sit down , as even after all this pain and suffering he was still inferior to the only enemy he wanted to escape from.
Aman knew that he was now at the mercy of his father , as the gap in strength was not something he could bridge . Hence he said " You won"t kill your only son with your own hands now will you old man ? ".
Cerventez was furious , in his heart he wanted nothing more than unsheating his sword and taking Aman"s head off. But he knew that he had nothing left in him , and if he exposes himself as vulnerable in this condition . Who knows what funny buisness Aman could pull off. Hence his best choice was to be a deterrent , as he said " What makes you think I won"t ? ".
Aman laughed , as he said " If you could , i would have already been dead , your majesty, but you can"t kill your son can you? ".
Aman had a misunderstanding about cerventez being restrained because he was his son , however that was not the case at all in reality . Aman said " Untill next time then old man "
And started to walk off , but he did not even go 20 meters before he felt a presence coming at him with comet like speed.
Aman squinted his eyes as he said " KNOW YOUR PLACE , WEAKLING".
Aman turned swinging his staff , which Rudra had to lean back to narrowly avoid . But he countered with a kick of his own , making Aman stumble 2 steps back .
Aman looked at Rudra and frowned and said " A thorn by my side . Always causing trouble , let me pluck you off , once and for all today ".
Saying so Aman used rapid chant to conjure four spells at once , putting Rudra in a perilous situation. However Rudra had already planned the fight sequence in his mind , as he used blink to teleport above Aman , using overhead slash and forcing him to defend.
Rudra"s strike contained soo much power that it made Aman buckle to one knee , and the moment he looked up in rage , a gaint fireball hit him square in the chest , causing damage.
The fireball was from Furball , whom Rudra had summoned for the first time in this war , as he needed her to even have the chance to blast Aman.
Aman looked irked , as he quickly summoned 1000 undead. But Rudra countered with 2000 of his own mana legion and stared tauntingly at Aman with a gaze that said " Two can play that game ".
Aman"s eyes twitched as he raised both his hands to summon 5000 more undead , but it was exactly the weakness Rudra was waiting for , as he used shadow Doppleganger , and charged at Aman with nine dummies.
Aman blasted one dummy after the other , as his attacks pa.s.sed right through the fake ones dispelling the illusion, finally when only three were left , Aman smirked and stabbed his staff in the ground , creating an circular ring of death , that dispelled all the three Dopplegangers at once.
But Aman frowned at this , why were all of them fake? He was looking for the real one when out of nowhere he was bound by a vine.
It was Rudra"s darkness bind ! Followed by a Thunderblast!
Turns out Rudra never actually charged at Aman and was standing even further behind where he started . Which completely p.i.s.sed Aman off.
He gained a lot of strength today , yet he was being toyed around by a tier 3 weakling , for no reason at all. Hence deciding that enough was enough , Aman used the tier 4 spell Forest of death
As just like Rudra"s darkness bind , an entire forest of skeletal plants and hostile trees reaking the aura of death bloomed all across Aman . While completely binding Rudra restraining him in a crucifix position.
Aman walked towards Rudra , as a few of the undead that were not fighting against the mana legion also surrounded the tree where Rudra was suspended from . As aman asked Rudra the question of " WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ? "
Rudra knew that he was no match for Aman , however he was not willing to let this piece of sc.u.m walk away after gaining soo much from the war without any reprucussions.
Meeting his gaze , Rudra said " I"m Shakuni won knight ! "
As his body was enveloped in a golden glow .
