Chapter 174: Uxtan Kingdom vs The Kingdom of Twilight (19)

(Zehar POV) 

As blood dripped down from my lip, I took a glance back towards the Master. She was sitting arrogantly on her death-like throne that was massive. The seat was as big as a couch, and thousands of weapons made from black ice protruded from the back. 

The throne almost displayed Masters fighting style… merciless. Even if she takes an interest in an enemy, she'll make them her pet just like the Wind Hero who is beneath her feet, serving as a footrest for her. 

I hear that the leader of the Assassin corps, Yin, was her enemy very early on, and she decided to show mercy by making her first pet. She seems very obedient as she lays on Master's lap, having her head pet by Masters slender and soft hands. 

Her hands didn't look like warriors' hands, but that is why you should never underestimate her. The only thing that displays domineering power is her glowing gray and yellow eyes which have an X and diamond around her pupils… it was strange and creepy, but it displayed her power with just a glance. 

Finally, Master's third pet, Ava. She was a traitor who tried to kill Master, and Master saw potential in her and decided to make her the leader for the Air Corps. But even though she is one of the strongest beings in Master's kingdom, she is obediently feeding Master a spiky, pink, and light green plant. 

The actual meat of the plant that dripped with seductive and appetizing juices was white with small black specks, which I assumed were seeds.

Every time Master took a bite out of the plant, my mouth watered, and it seemed she noticed me as she lifted her legs off of the Wind Hero. 

As she moved Yin off her lap, Ava handed her one more appetizing plant, and the Wind Hero sat up and straightened her posture as she sat on her knees. She then moved out of the way, clearing room for Master, who suddenly disappeared. 

WHOOSH 

She appeared in front of me in only just an instant, causing me to jump in shock. 

"Hmmm… It seems the buffs have worn off… How troublesome. Even the blood-red aura is dissipating… this throne world really is troublesome. At least I found out about it earlier rather than later," Master says, moving her hand through the thin, blood-red aura that coated my body. 

She saw me eyeing her plant that she hadn't eaten yet and handed it to me. 

"Thank you," I say, lowering my head. 

"Don't sweat it. I can practically hear your stomach rumbling… eat up and kill that bastard," Master says, her eyes growing cold as she looks at the next Heroes who just caught their breath. 

She then hands me the plant as I tightly hold it within the center of my palm.

"As you wish," 

"Oh yeah, what does your [Poison Body] body modification do?" Master asks.

"It allowed me to evolve into various species that use poison. Plus, I think the side effect is my hair and eyes turning dark purple while my skin is a pale white," I respond. 

"I see… Well, good luck. Plus, I have an offer if you can survive this fight… I think you might like it,"  Master says. 

"Please don't worry, I will make sure to take out this trash," 

Suddenly I felt my muscles bulge, my body grow lighter, and feel an invisible force flow through me faster. And then, in the next second, the blood-red aura thickened, causing even more power to flow through me. 

I could only assume it was one of Master's skills, so I stood up and bowed deeply, seeing her appear on her throne. She sat on it arrogantly, which of course, only made me smile wider. 

The Wind Hero got on her hands and knees again before making choking noises. She fell to the floor, clawing at the thick metal collar that wrapped around her neck. It didn't even look like a collar as it just seemed like a thick piece of metal was welded around the Wind Heroes neck. 

I was confused as to why she was choking until she finally stopped, gasping for air. 

"M-Master, please tell me what I did wrong," The Wind Hero asks. 

"I didn't give you order, did I. Nor did I give you an order before. You assumed that I wanted you to move out of the way, which I was going to say, but you moved before I gave the order… you follow my orders exactly. You don't have a will as I control you," Master says, giving the Wind Hero a slight push to the stomach with her foot. 

She tumbles to the ice below Master, looking up with fearful eyes.

Master reaches out both of her heels before saying. 

"Massage them," 

The Wind Hero immediately scampers to her knees and hesitantly removes her master's heels before massaging her slender white feet. 

"Geez, Master is pretty harsh with her new pet. I guess she really hates traitors that much," I mutter before turning my head around. 

I stared down at the now calm heroes with cold eyes as I slowly stepped towards the golden ice.

Tump Tump Tump 

The only sound that the half gold, half black palace could hear was Master taking heavy bites out of the delicious plant and the footsteps of my shoes against the ice. 

After a few more steps, I stopped right before the golden ice in front of me. Before entering, I took 3 massive bites out of the pink and light green plant before warming my body up once more. 

It took just a bit of exercise to fully digest the plant and get used to the buffs that Master had placed on me. 

[Deadly Poison Mist] 

I coated my body in the purple mist once again before stepping onto the golden ice. I felt Masters buffs slightly diminish, causing me to click my tongue in annoyance. 

Just as I expected, a floor of spears erupted from under me, so I was forced to flash step out of the way. I then immediately jumped up as soon as I hit the floor once again, dodging a few more spears of golden ice that shimmered in the sunlight. 

Once I was in the air, I scanned the area around me and took in all of the information. 

About 40 spears above me. About 25 lances from below me. About 60 spears from the left and right… Okay, I need to do this… 

A spear from the left side of me was the first to close in on me, but I used the top of it to boost myself up, dodging even more spears from the sides. The spears that came from my sides all blocked the ones from the bottom, but the ones from the top were even closer than before. 

Even though I was now falling back down to the palace floor, the spears from above were much faster, so I immediately thought of a simple and basic plan. 

[Wind Magic] 

I gathered a condensed orb of air right next to my ribs, and once I felt the spears were about to hit me. I exploded the orb, causing me to be sent flying sideways. 

I coughed up a bit of blood before breaking my fall with my wings for the first time… but even though I knew it was dangerous...  I still did it…

And here comes my punishment. 

A split second before I landed, hundreds of spears came protruding out of the ground. I clicked my tongue, but I couldn't do anything besides slightly bend my body out of the way. It wasn't like the spears were tightly packed together; they were spread out to cover as much area as possible. 

SHING 

I tried to cut the ice with my hardened poison blades, but they instantly shattered. A few of the spears ripped large chunks out of my limbs, causing me to scream in pain, but I was somehow able to dodge all of the life-threatening spears. 

I immediately jumped out of the forest of spears before dashing towards the throne. I could see the next Light Hero was already struggling, so I used this chance to run as fast as I could. 

Even though a part of my calf was missing, I ran and tried to avoid the pain as much as possible. 

"HUFF HUFF HUFF," 

My breathing got heavy, and I felt my consciousness slipping due to blood loss, but I just got to the first step. I grit my teeth and activate almost every skill I had. 

[Fire Magic] 

[Wind Magic]

[Poison Secretion] 

[Deadly Poison Mist]

[Sea of Poison] 

[Tidal Wave of Poison]

[Summon: Zombie] 

[Summon: Skeleton]

I've never felt it before, but after activating so many skills, I felt almost all of my mana drain from my body as I pressed forward. It was a strange experience that made me stumble in shock, but I quickly recollected my thoughts before increasing my speed.
