BXBX NOVEL Chapter 281 - Deathmatch
"No"
"No"
"Don\'t leave me, please don\'t leave me"
Anastasia throws herself in the ground while hugging the corpse of Hans.
However, no matter how Anastasia move him, the eyes of Hans didn\'t open again.
"Uuuu… wake up, please" Anastasia broke in crying.
"Uaaah!"
The sounds of tears falling could be heard while everyone looked at the proud princess of the Boltor family, falling apart in the ground like a little girl.
"Move!" An imposing voice woke up Anastasia.
It was her Master, Demeter.
"[Ying-Yang domain]!"
Everything turned black while Demeter\'s green eyes turned white.
In the darkness, the corpse of Hans could be seen while a white smoke was slowly gathering above him.
"[Call of Nature]" Said Demeter.
[Call of Nature] the most powerful and most versatile ability of Demeter, it depends on her form, the ability changes. In her summer form, Demeter is able to return death back to the world of the living!
"Miss Demeter, you are interfering with my job, once again?" Just as Demeter was extending her hand, a voice interrupted her.
"Atropos" Said Demeter.
"This is troublesome, Miss Demeter, you can\'t interfere with my job every time you feel like it" Said Atropos.
"Be careful how you talk to me, Atropos" Said Demeter.
"Ups, I am sorry, Indeed I was rude" Said Atropos.
After some seconds, Demeter hesitated and asked
"… It was a direct order? Why?"
"I don\'t know, I don\'t have the authority to know, however, it was indeed the soul of this young man" Said Atropos.
"If it was a direct order… then, it means that his destiny is too great" Said Demeter.
"The only ones who get that kind of… privileges… are the ones at the high of Heracles" Said Atropos.
"But how is this possible? He doesn\'t have the strange of a hero" Said Demeter.
"I don\'t know, but you know the repercussions of this, them save Heracles at that time because he was destined to save the Olympus, however, if they want them dead, it only means one thing…" Said Atropos.
"…" Demeter didn\'t say anything; however, she knew what that means.
"Sigh, I see that you have your own circumstances… even if we fight, I might not win but you won\'t go unscathed, the soul injure hasn\'t healed yet, right?" Said Atropos.
Demeter looked at her right hand, indeed, the last time she had injured her hand in this soul realm, although time could heal it, that would be in a few years at best, now, it was still a little black.
Demeter looked down and retracted her hand.
She was about to give up when she remembered something…
"Master"
"*Sigh*" Demeter sighed.
"I have someone that is waiting for that soul" Said Demeter while extending her arm once again.
She grabbed the white gas.
She was ready for Atropos to fight back, however, to her surprise, Atropos didn\'t do anything.
"I don\'t want to die yet" Said Atropos with a smile while seeing the surprised face of Demeter.
"However, you better be prepared, for you, who wants to enter the underworld, they would get revenge" Said Atropos.
"You won\'t be able to escape the dark hands of destiny"
"You won\'t tell me that I shouldn\'t go to the underworld?" Smiled bitterly, Demeter.
"No, no, I wouldn\'t waste my words like that, after all, everyone knows that you will eventually go to the underworld, even if it means fighting against Zeus himself" Said Atropos.
"I owe you one" Said Demeter.
"Two"
"Yeah, whatever" Said Demeter.
The eyes of Demeter returned to normal and the world returned to normal, Demeter felt her strength leaving, using [Call of Nature] was a huge toll for her.
"Master" Anastasia looked at Demeter and was surprised.
"Move" Said Demeter.
She grasped for air and went to the body of Hans.
"This…!" Demeter wanted to pull the soul of Hans on his body once again, however…
"You piece of shit" Said Demeter while looking at Claude.
Claude looked at Demeter.
"What… is happening?" Asked Anastasia.
"He pulverized the link between the soul of Hans and his body… with my current powers, I can\'t revive him" Said Demeter.
"That… that means…" Said Anastasia.
"No, there is still hope, is we can somehow preserve his body before it discomposes…" Said Demeter.
"But where?" Asked Anastasia.
"DRAKINI"
Cutting the air, like a knife, Alfonso\'s voice interrupted both, however…
There was something strange in his voice.
Demeter looked up since she was so focused on Hans, she had forgotten to look at Alfonso\'s reaction.
When she looked up, she almost backed up in fear.
"GO RETRIEVE HIS BODY" Said Alfonso.
Drakini nodded and, from his ring form, it transformed into a huge snake that ate the body of Hans, transforming once again in a ring.
"DEMETER, CONSERVE THE SOUL" Said Alfonso.
Demeter only nodded and put the soul of Hans on her body before it disappeared.
From Alfonso\'s hand, blood could be seen dropping.
This was seen by Claude who looked at Alfonso with a strange look.
"Why? His soul power is changing at an unbelievable speed… like" Though Claude.
"LIKE HE WAS TWO PERSONS IN ONE BODY?"
A voice cut Claude\'s train of thoughts, he looked up and saw Alfonso looking at him.
"What the…" Claude almost blurted a curse when he saw at Alfonso.
Or, to be more precise, the soul power of Alfonso.
Alfonso had green veins and all of his face and his eyes were both green, he didn\'t look human at all.
"A monster…" Though Claude.
"SCARED?"
Claude was surprised one again, it was like Alfonso was reading his mind, this put another fear factor on him.
He took a step back without realizing it.
"OH, YOU DON\'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THAT, I WON\'T BE THE ONE TO CARE OF YOU, THIS ISNT MY FIGHT" Said Alfonso.
"THIS LITTLE SHIT IS TRYING VERY HARD TO CONTAIN THE WRATH"
"A SHAME"
Alfonso licked the upper part of his lips.
"WITH ALL THE FUN ACTIVITIES I HAD PLANNED FOR YOU"
Alfonso smiled with malice and took a small breath; the greenness of his eyes darkens a little.
"ANASTASIA"
"…" Anastasia looked at Alfonso, she also was scared, however, due to the fact that she couldn\'t perceive the soul power as well as Claude, she couldn\'t tell the abnormal state of Alfonso.
"ARE YOU GOING TO BE A LITTLE COWARD ALL YOUR LIFE?" Asked Alfonso.
"I…"
"ARE YOU GOING TO LET HANS DEATH BE A DOG\'S DEATH!?" Shouted Alfonso.
Anastasia seemed like waken up from Alfonso\'s words, she looked at the spilled blood of Hans on the ground.
"…"
She stood up and, with a resolute face, she took out her sword.
"Claude Boltor" Said Anastasia.
"IN ONE YEAR, I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DEATHMATCH IN THE SKY ARENA!" Shouted Anastasia.
