Chapter 928: The Inner Kingdom: Death Of A Duke

(Unedited)

…

While the two are fighting, the supposed tranquil night became chaotic. The shock wave from their collision sent many debris and sharp wind flying all over the city. Many could see the debris flying out from the Duke's castle at it caused them to feel afraid.

Those who are in the know did not feel worried. Instead, they are all smiling and some are even praying. It seems that after the many years of suffering under the hands of the Duke who seems amiable and gentle on the outside but evil on the inside, they are now going to be free from fear and oppression.

Their bodies have been riddled with the disease over and over again and suffered the constant pain as they have no choice but to rely upon the Duke and his mages to cure them.

But as they are cured and get sick over and over, they realized that they are being used. They are being treated as livestock or genie pigs by the mages. But they could not do anything about it as they are powerless and helpless against the mages who ruled over them all.

The citizen of Zepa City are looking in the sky as two figures are clashing against each other creating loud booming sounds and bright sparks in the air.

The dark evening sky made the battle into a spectacle that is only seen once in a while.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already sent the Duke flying towards the western wall of the city.

Crash!

The Duke's figure came crashing to the wall turning it into rubbles. He could not deny that the Duke's body is really sturdy.

Shin Jiao concentrated and held the Duke into place with his psychokinesis. However, he suddenly feels some strange aura surrounding the Duke and he could still move. It's like there is an invisible sphere protecting him.

"Haha… You cannot use your invisible power against me!" shouted the Duke.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate to scan the body of the Duke and he noticed a slightly glowing totem hanging on his neck. When he saw this before, he did not focus on it because it just looks like a simple totem and nothing else. However, he realized now that it is not.

That thing is actually a unique artifact, something that would only show its power when a set of conditions are met. With its unique feature, Shin Jiao was a bit curious about its mysterious origin.

He did not try holding the Duke again but instead waved his hand and a few flying swords appear behind him.

"Let's see how strong that defensive totem of yours is…" Shin Jiao said as he filled those swords with his mana.

Swoosh!!! Swoosh!!! Swoosh!!!

The several swords flew in the air like missiles as they targeted the Duke.

Jumping once again in the air, the Duke did not hesitate to cast a protective spell to block the blades. Then he pointed in the air and a lightning spear started to form.

"God's spear!"

He shouted as he throws the spear in Shin Jiao's direction.

Shin Jiao did not dodge this strike, but instead waved his hand and controlled his psychokinesis to contain the huge amount of power.

When the Duke saw this, his eyes went wide in disbelief. Then Shin Jiao began casting some spells as he slowly transformed the lightning spear and compressed it little by little until it became thumb-size. Then he looks at the Duke and smiled.

"Back at you, Sir Duke…" he said as he suddenly flicks the thumb-sized compressed lightning energy.

With this flick, it flew at the speed of light and the Duke did not even have time to react as he suddenly feels something penetrating his core.

The artificial dark mana core inside him was hit by the lightning energy ball. Then he felt a strong jolt that immediately spreads throughout his body.

Eaarrgghhh!!!

The Duke cried in pain as he was electrocuted and a bright light slowly emerges from within him. But before it could do some irreversible damage. The lightning energy pushes the dark core outside as it slowly disintegrated along with the strong lightning force which erupted in the air.

The body of the Duke was thrown to a house turning it into rubbles in an instant.

The slowly disintegrating dark core suddenly turned into a cloud of black mana-filled smoke and a large face appears in the air.

"How dare you interrupt my 10 years of planning! You have annoyed this old man… I will find you and I will kill you!" shouted the large face.

"You don't have to search for me everywhere… Tell me where you are hiding and I will go to your place… That would be more convenient, right?" Suddenly Shin Jiao who is still floating in the air said with a smirk.

"Hahaha… A proud and ignorant man… Very well, I am Gan Warbread… You can find me in the Northern Forest in the Demon Gorge… Argghhh… Damn you… What is this? What have you done?!!!" the large face made of mana said but his voice was interrupted by a painful howl.

The face turned ugly as one could tell that he is in pain.

But how could Shin Jiao say what he did to that person? He is not some foolish person to reveal all of his cards to his enemy.

In truth, he has combined a part of his Divine Sense in that lightning energy. It flew at a lightning speed and hit the body of the Duke and as it connects to the dark core; his Divine Sense immediately affected the darkness attribute of the man as he connected with his soul fragment.

Because he looks down on his enemy he has surely suffered a lot of pain.

While looking at the devastation in the city, Shin Jiao could not help but frown a bit. The dark core has now fully disintegrated, so he looks at the Duke and flew towards the rubbles.

The Duke lies weakly on the ruined house. His former grand demeanor is now gone. His handsome face, regal appearance, and great stature are now gone. What appears in front of Shin Jiao is a weak and sickly old man. The sunken face of the Duke and his thin body was far from his previous self.

"Finish it… Let me die… It has been too long that I have suffered…" the Duke muttered weakly.

Shin Jiao looks at him and smirked.

"Do you think you have the right to say that?" Shin Jiao asked as his figure slowly landed on the ground in front of the duke.

The Duke was silent as he knows that what he did to the people in the city was too cruel.

Shin Jiao did not want to dwell on this issue. Though he is angry and feels uncomfortable at what happened to the people in the city. He knew that those who died would not remember everything that happened in their life ever.

They would live another life and cycle as those memories would serve as fuel to the gods, Agus and Ruel.

The Duke just looks at the man who defeated him and showed a faint smile of gratitude.

"Thank you…" he said as he looks at the starry sky.

"My love… I am coming…" he muttered.

Shin Jiao who heard this suddenly chuckled. He did not want to be a wet blanket but he could not help but say it out loud.

"Pfft… Your wife… she could not even remember you. What's the use of holding on that memory when it would still vanish like a smoke?" he said in a sarcastic tone.

He did not know why he said that, but he just wanted to say it at that time.

The Duke's expression changes as he looks at Shin Jiao.

"No… impossible…" the Duke muttered in disbelief as he clutches his heart in pain.

In one corner, Shin Jiao saw a young man appearing at the side of the broken wall. When the young man saw the Duke weakly lying on the ground, he suddenly lifted his hand with a dagger on it.

Then he saw many others slowly walking out of their houses as they held knives, hoes, shovels, and other sharp objects that can be used as a weapon.

Shin Jiao just shook his head as he floated in the air and left the area.

He quickly returns to the Duke's castle.

As he left, he saw in the corner of his eyes, the people suddenly rushing towards the location of the Duke like an angry mob.

Many of them have tears in their eyes as they hack and smash at the body of the man that causes them that grief and pain. They attacked the man that is responsible for the death of their loved ones and their suffering.

This scene could be seen all over the city as those mages that have lost their connection to their master fell lifeless on the ground. But this did not appease the people's anger. They wanted revenge, and they wanted to kill those bastards who made them suffer.. Hence the bodies of the mages were mutilated by the citizen of Zepa City.
