Chapter 184: CHAPTER 184 – Entertainment!
Chapter 184: CHAPTER 184 – Entertainment!
Screams of pain and despair were heard.
When Noctura turned her head toward the screams, she found many Aquathrens floating on the sea surface with blood flowing out of their bodies.
All the 100+ spikes had pierced through at least one Aquathren without a miss.
Some were pierced directly in the head, causing them to die without knowing how they died.
Some were lucky enough to dodge, but they were still pierced by the spikes, and they were going to die of blood loss.
Then there were also some cases where two Aquathren were killed by a single spike.
"Wow…."
Noctura muttered with amazement.
She completely ignored the bloody scene, she just marveled as she thought about Alex's attack from before.
The precision of the attack, the lethality, everything was amazing.
It was a simple attack, but Alex made it into something much more amazing.
'I couldn't even see the attack….'
'It was like it disappeared and then reappeared in front of the Aquatrens….'
Noctura was unbothered by all the screams of the Aquathrens as she wondered what it was, what Alex did to his attack.
"I teleported those spikes right in front of their bodies."
Alex spoke as if he could hear what Noctura was thinking.
In the past few months since he had been in this world, Alex had been training with his space element during his free time.
Although he didn't use it much, he still wanted to master this element as it was pretty useful.
So, after all the training he could do with the space element, Alex could now easily teleport things from one place to another.
But the point is that the place where he wants to teleport the object should be in his field of vision.
"That's amazing! Will I ever be able to do it?"
Noctura asked as she looked at Alex with eyes filled with hope.
'Argh…'
Alex groaned inwardly as he saw the hope-filled eyes of Noctura.
'How could I ever refuse her if she does this….?'
[You are the one who spoiled her….]
Sophia commented.
'Guilty as charged, but I don't regret it.'
Alex spoke as he smiled and replied to Noctura.
"Of course you can, why else would I show this to you?"
"Huh?"
Noctura let out a confused voice.
"I need to make you stronger, that's why."
Alex smiled as he replied to his own question, but Noctura murmured.
"I am strong though…."
"I know that you are strong, pup, but you don't have anything that you could use as a ranged attack, and this type of ability is best suited for you."
Alex explained what he meant by his words.
His words made Noctura realize that she really didn't have anything that she could use as a ranged attack.
She could shoot shadow spikes, but they could do so much.
Alex and Noctura completely ignored the Aquathrens and Makrum that started emerging from the water surface cautiously.
They continued their chat.
The same, however, could not be said for the other side.
........................
After running away from Alex, Makrum's mind finally started to think straight.
He could think things through.
He realized that Alex letting him go didn't make sense.
The first question that came to his mind was….
'What would I do if I were in his place?'
He started imagining himself in Alex's place.
'I would kill my enemy, even if they are harmless as a duck, after all, it is better to have no enemy than having someone who is ready to kill you anytime.'
Makrum thought to himself.
'He even let this guy off.'
Then he looked at the other guy that was running with him, and he finally noticed the shit that was leaking from that guy's pants.
*Baam*
Makrum kicked that guy away as his face scrunched up with disgust.
"Stay 10 meters away from me."
Makrum commanded and the guy just nodded his head dumbly.
'What did I do….?'
That guy still didn't know what he did wrong. Join the journey at m-vl-em-py-r
'I can't think of any reason for him to let me go other than...'
Makrum thought as he clenched his fists.
'…. entertainment.'
Makrum could only think of one reason, and that infuriated him.
'He wants entertainment!'
Makrum gritted his teeth.
Makrum understood this well because he used to do the same with humans before.
He would catch them and let them fight each other, then he would say that the winner would get a chance to fight him, and if they win, they are free to go.
The humans would hold on to the silly hope that maybe they could get out alive of the situation.
The more he remembered those things the angrier he became.
*BAAM*
He slammed into a tree, breaking it into pieces.
*BAAM*
He did it again.
*BAAM*
Then again.
He did it till his head started hurting, and a single drop of blood fell.
'You want entertainment, right?'
Then he spoke with a crazy smile.
'I will give you 'entertainment'.'
He went to his palace and shouted orders.
"Sound the alarms! Gather everyone!
We are going for a war!"
Makrum didn't tell them who they were fighting, neither did he tell them the number of the enemies.
But the Aquathrens just started chanting war cries and gathered in front of his house or a small castle of his.
They were bloodthirsty beasts, it didn't matter who they were going to face, they would kill anyone.
Above all, they all knew that the ones with the highest population in this small world of theirs were them.
This took away all of their fear and gave them confidence.
Makrum didn't say anything to deflate their confidence, instead, he gestured for the mid-boss beast to come closer.
The beast got closer to Makrum.
Makrum looked at his pants and nodded his head.
But this action caused the beast to grit his teeth.
'I will kill that mf!'
He cursed in his mind as he thought of Alex.
He seemed to have forgotten Alex's strength in just a while.
Makrum then spoke.
"Listen well to me, and do just as I tell you to, if you do so, then we will have our revenge…."
Makrum spoke with an evil smile.
The mid-boss monster didn't know what the plan was, so he listened to Makrum's words carefully and not long after, he had the same evil smile as Makrum plastered on his face.
But who would've thought that more than 100 of them would be killed even before they could get ashore?
This shocked the Aquathrens to their core and for the first time, they got scared of what or who they were going to face.
They could see the corpses of more than 100 of their brethren floating in the water as they were pierced by a black spike.
They could hear the cries for help from some lucky ones who didn't die in a single strike, but their condition wasn't any good.
But when they slowly moved toward the shore and peeked out of the water to look at how many enemies they had, they were shocked again….
