Chapter 843: Knight Captain (8)

Chapter 844- Knight Captain (8)

"No wonder you know something about this energy. That beast soul inside you should be quite ancient"

In the sky, shrouded inside the faint greyish black miasma, the general laughed when he saw the action of the princess. The next second he extended his hands which had become completely lifeless and grey due to the greyish black miasma and marvelled at its power.

At this moment, his hands looked dull and dead, just like a corpse. Furthermore, there were criss crossing cracks running through his hand and it seemed like his hands would crumble apart any second. Neverhtless, the vast amount of energy contained within it, said otherwise.

"[Hands of Ruin]"

The general slowly muttered under his breath. His face was extremely pale, veins bulged around his forehead and perspiration covered his body. His aura had also dropped visibly.

Clearly, this power had a lot of drawbacks; however, the General did not care about such things as a fierce smile spread from his lips.

"Using this gift that the lord bestowed upon me, I shall achieve victory for his emperor"

Saying so, the general stepped forward, instantly his figure disappeared. The next time he appeared, he was already behind Cynthia. A grey hand was extended towards her seemingly wanting to touch her. Diiscover new stories at novel35.com

The latter sensing the danger, dodged to the side and employed a movement skill to open some distance between them. After that, her eyes which had contracted like a cat, gazed at the extended hand.

She could feel some intense dangerous fluctuations coming from that seemingly ordinary hand. Her omen proved to be true the next second when the general opened his hand.

"So you dodged that huh? Good choice, if you hadn't dodged, your outcome would have been just like this hair" The general opened his hand, and a single strand of hair was caught in between his palm.

The volet coloured hair had a lustrous shine to it and it was obvious who it belonged to. Cynthia looked at that strand of her hair when suddenly her eyes contracted. In front of her gaze, that hair instantly lost all of its shine as a greyish energy invaded it and it quickly withered away.

Seeing this, a chill an down her spine. Thankfully, it was just a strand of her hair, had it connected with her body, even she didn't have the confidence to come out unscathed.

"Cynthia use the Beast Materialisation Skill. You cannot let him touch you" The sacred beast Leo spoke inside her head.

Nevertheless, facing him once again and this time as opponents, they once again realised why this man in front of him was called the strongest royal knight and the shield that stood between the royal family and the enemies.

That said, knowing this and facing him right now, did not make them the slightest bit happy. The reason for that was because the once glorious knight captain was now being made use of in such a cruel way.

How could Alvara and the others bear to see him like that?

"Dammit, even though he is no longer my brother, the strength he possesses is undoubtedly his" Alvara muttered dodging numerous sword slashes that came at her at breakneck speed.

"You are right, this is getting nowhere. At this rate, we will be the first ones to expend our energy and tire out. We need a plan" Burg was of the same mind. As they faced the knight captain, the group gathered together.

"Although it might look like our attacks aren't doing any damage, it can be seen from his slowly deteriorating movements that it is definitely having some effect. Although he might be much more powerful than the other tainted knights, he is no different from them. That is to say, if we attack his weak point, which is his head, he can be defeated"

"However, our blades aren't able to get too close to him and even if it does, the armour stops it from becoming fatal. The only one among us who has enough firepower to ignore the defence of the armour is Marba" Alvara explained the plan.

"Even if she can deal damage to him, I highly doubt that Knight Captain... ahem... former knight captain will sit still and allow her to complete her magic" Brett the assassin spoke. As a former seasoned adventurer, his input was highly regarded within the group.

"You are right, there is no way that man will let Marba complete her spell. Which why we must stop him until then"

When she spoke till here, she could see a pensive look appear on the faces of everyone. If the battle so far taught them something, it would be that dealing with the knight captain was not so easy.

If it was, wouldn't they have already defeated him? Forget about being able to stop him, they had to put their life on line just to contain him. Alvara asking them to stop him while Marba casts her most powerful magic would not only prove to be a monumental task but it would also expose Marba to danger.

Everybody knew how powerless a mage was when they were in the middle of casting their magic.

Even mindless beasts would prioritise attacking the mage after sensing the danger emitted by the magic, much less needs to be said about intelligent opponents. It was common knowledge to take out the mages from the enemy's team before they could unleash any powerful magic.

As such, it was unlikely that the knight captain even though he had been turned into a cold emotionless tool of war, would wait for Marba to unleash her magic. A warrior as powerful as him wouldn't even need much time to cover the distance between him and Marba to swiftly cull her down.
