Everything will be my way!

Chapter 439

Chapter 439

«Bitch, just die!» – Edward shouted angrily. He stretched out his right dagger forward, and a gigantic bolt of lightning hit his opponent from the sky, and then again and again. Dozens of deadly purple lightning bolts were supposed to hit the man, but all of them inexplicably skirted the target. Only the ground under the feet of the opponent was heated to the state of magma.

«And that’s all?» – Kyon mockingly shook off invisible dust particles.

Edward turned purple with shame. His best technique is being mocked by some old man of the superior phase! And this is happening in front of a monstrously powerful girl! How to stay calm?!

~BOOM~

After the exchange of attacks, the guy, as always, suppressed the opponent with the power of his blow, throwing him 5 meters away, but what the hell is the point?! This scenario is repeated for the thirtieth time, and the man is completely indifferent!

Kyon struggled to defend his underpants from countless blades of air while taking enemy strikes at the same time. What a sneaky ultimate technique! If he were a noble girl, this technique would be super effective. This is what one would expect from the grandson of the head of the shadow clan. Well, now the plan is simple: save the underpants, wait out the storm, and then beat the guy with two twin brothers.

When the opponent’s right dagger touched The Scourge three times, an especially powerful lightning bolt struck directly at the weapon and hit the right arm.

Feeling the numbness and trembling in his muscles, Kyon became alert. If this continues, even his developed right arm will soon lose its mobility. How did this strike hit the target, ignoring two barriers?

Lovr activated “The eyes of truth” and quickly found out everything: Edward’s right dagger takes a charge from everything it comes into contact with. Therefore, the positively charged lightning easily finds its target even through barriers. How can this be prevented? Obviously, he will have to use the ether to remove the «marks» of the enemy.

When the lightning stopped hitting the man, Edward gritted his teeth in despair, feeling like a puppet in someone else’s game. Even a lord phaser at the 8th stage would not be able to ignore his attacks and would be forced to finish the fight as soon as possible, but fighting with this bastard turns all his past combat experience upside down. The nickname “Two-Headed Thunder Dragon”, which he always wore with pride, seemed to have turned into a joke.

After 5 minutes, the weather returned to normal. When the man, as if nothing had happened, put on new trousers, and two clones separated from him, Edward swallowed hard. He just wasted 60% of his energy, and now the enemy can simply wear him out. The guy felt worse than ever.

«Judging by your sour face, you think that I’m going to start playing a fight of attrition with you now, don’t you? I don’t need such a victory! I’ll turn you into a chop without it!» – Kyon said confidently.

Edward spat on the ground and boldly shouted: «Shut your mouth, you bastard!»

The man’s courageous and resolute voice caused a violent reaction from the audience. Delight mixed with glee danced in Eve’s eyes. She considered her father a fearless hero, and looked at him the way Xiao Bai would look at a very successful investment. Whereas Leila looked like she had eaten a worm. A nauseatingly unpleasant feeling began to engulf her, growing stronger and stronger with each passing moment.

~BOOM~

The opponents exchanged blows, the first attacker flew away.

~BOOM~

Immediately after, the guy turned around and repelled the second attack flying at his back.

~BOOM~

Edward barely reacted, repelling a blow from another enemy from the side.

~BOOM~

The first one came to his senses by this time and again rushed into battle.

~BOOM~

«Aa-a-aa-a-a! SCUM!» – Edward roared painfully when he was hit by a sword on the back. Another rib is broken. Even with an almost double speed advantage, he physically does not have time to fend off three opponents at the same time. They acted like a single organism, systematically driving the victim into a dead end, opening a gap in him.

Kyon and his clone brothers did not leave the enemy a chance. Finally, there is a stable strategy that does not require sophisticated tricks and deadly risk. Three people just kick one with their feet. Vile, but effective. However, it’s good that the guy has an unsuccessful set of elements. Lightning is useless, and the wind is unable to cut through the adamantite swords of the clones.

However, it is difficult to say whether this tactic will work against enemies with an advantage of 20 or more stages. Much depends on the set of elements and techniques in their arsenal.

Edward tried to blow away the clones, sent dozens of blades into each of them, created massive hurricanes and storms, but all to no avail: some invisible barriers canceled the effect of lightning; the sticking technique did not allow the clones to be blown away; the blades either fought off with adamantine swords, or stumbled upon an impenetrable original; and the old man managed not to fall under the techniques hitting the square, competently scattering around.

~BOOM~

After another blow, blood gushed out of the guy’s mouth. Gritting his bloody teeth, he ran away, followed by three pot-bellied men in trousers.

«Hee-hee-hee!» – covering her mouth with her palm, Eve giggled happily.

Leila was usually the first to start having fun at such moments, but now she doesn’t feel like laughing.

Edward experienced boundless humiliation while fleeing from the practitioner of the superior phase. However, the fear of being beaten to the point of loss of consciousness, or even a pulse, is much stronger than pride.

«You sneaky coward, fight like a man! The lady gave you a chance to save your worthless life by defeating me! If you keep running away, you can make her angry!»

Edward hesitated. No matter how disgusting the words of the bastard may sound, he is right. It is better to hope for a tiny chance to win than to die for sure. Realizing this, he turned around and continued the desperate battle, trying not to let the opponents surround him.

The girls watched how the father gradually turns the boy into a chop, and involuntarily admired and marveled at the strength of the man, because on a subconscious level they knew that such a weak soul cannot compete with the denser soul of the enemy, just as a sparrow cannot defeat an eagle.

Eve was looking forward to an early victory in the bet. A week of full control over the sister’s character… She will remember such humiliation for a long time! But she will know who is the main one. She will reduce her arrogance, and maybe even gain some intelligence. She lacks it.

Leila bit her lips, straining every time her father hit the guy. If this continues, she will lose! Something must be done! To become the slave of the younger sister for a whole week? She’d never live it down! No way!

The girl, yielding to an impulse, enveloped the man with pressure, very carefully outlining his figure.

Kyon’s body seemed to be dipped into the bottom of a lake consisting of jelly. His temples throbbed, his ears rang, his vision got blurry. The body hardly obeyed. Now for the enemy, he moved slower than a turtle!

{Leila, you’re such a bitch!} – Lovr swore to himself, trying to save the situation somehow. He even activated “The Flash of Darkness”.

Edward stabbed the man in the stomach at that very moment. When the sharp dagger under the pompous name “Tongue of the Dragon” pierced through the old man’s flesh, the young heir of the shadow clan rolled his eyes with pleasure. He took great pleasure in using the full power of the ether to incinerate the bastard’s insides!

~FIZZ~

Kyon’s body twitched uncontrollably. Dry crackling swept across the plain. Smoke with a disgusting smell of burnt meat poured from a deep wound in the stomach.

«DAD, NO!» – with a cry of horror, Eve released the pressure, forcing the villain to fall to his knees and lose consciousness. Then she ran up and picked up the falling man, gently laid him on the ground and with a smooth movement took the dagger out of his stomach.

Leila did not move from her place. She only now began to realize that she had committed a misdemeanor for which she should reproach herself for the rest of her life. And she committed this unprecedented stupidity by giving in to emotions. For some reason, it seemed to her that dad was strong, and such a small thing would not harm him.

Injuries received by the man are incompatible with life. Any ordinary person would die almost immediately, and even the poor man of the superior phase would suffer for several minutes before his inevitable death, and all this because of one reckless girl! If Lovr hadn’t wrapped the dagger inside his body with an isolation barrier at the last moment, even Synergy wouldn’t have pulled him out of the grave. If the enemy had known, for example, the element of heat, nothing at all would have saved him. Now the recovery process has been established. It remains only to pacify the heartbreaking pain and wait a day or two until complete recovery.

«Daddy, don’t die! Dad, please!» – through a sluggishly stirred dislike for the male presence, laying her father’s head on her knees, sobbing Eve begged her father not to leave her. The charred wound in the man’s stomach was terrifying, and it was still smoking. How to save the sufferer?!

Leila finally got out of the shock, ran up and bent over Zosimos. Seeing the eyes of a dear person full of pain, her heart was torn with pain, and tears of burning shame slowly flowed down her pale cheeks. She said in a small, regretful voice: «Dad… I… I don’t… I don’t want you to die! I forbid you to die! You can’t hurt your beautiful daughter! I will not forgive you if you die!» – if it happens that the man dies, then the girl will never forgive herself. Now she would not hesitate to give up games, movies and cartoons, just to turn back time.

{Don’t bury me so soon, you fool!} – Kyon thought furiously, but said nothing. He had a brilliant idea: to simulate a near-death state for a while. In stressful conditions, girls will certainly be able to regain their strength. If one remembers that there is not much time left until the next appearance of the demons, this idea seems to be reasonable. Of course, he does not want to offend cutie Eve at all, but it’s worth it. In the future, he will make amends.

Lovr said his “deathbed” speech in a hoarse voice: «Take care of yourself, bunnies… Now you are the only relatives for each other… in this world… Be… Good…»

When Zosimos went limp and closed his eyes, the girls forgot how to breathe for several long moments, but soon they took a deep breath as they heard a weak heartbeat.

«Dad…» – crying, Leila touched the man’s forehead.

«GET LOST!» – Eve suddenly screamed, sending her sister tumbling on the ground with a powerful blow.

«D-did you hit me?» – the girl stood up in amazement.

«Did you really think I wouldn’t notice that you were using pressure? I’m not blind! Because of your selfish desire to win a bet, dad missed a beat and is now on the verge of life and death! It’s not enough to wring your neck for this! If you only dare to approach him – I will tear you apart!» – Eve shouted angrily, showing so much aggression for the first time in her life.

Leila could not object to anything. In fact, for the first time, she completely agreed with her sister. She would have wrung her neck with her own hands. The girl showed restraint, unusual for her. She did not argue and conflict, instead, she fell to her knees and sobbed softly: «I’m so sorry… I didn’t want to… I…»

«Get lost!» – Eve repeated threateningly, releasing the pressure.
