Chapter 400 - Last Resort
"Isn't beautiful enough?" Keisa Su couldn't help but smile wryly. She took pride in her archery, as she reached the utmost perfection of it. However, this devil dared to say that hers wasn't beautiful enough? If it wasn't, then what was? His?
"Yes, a perfect archery is beautiful enough to capture everyone's hearts. However, you didn't capture mine. So it is understandable that your archery isn't perfect and beautiful at all." Maymar spread his arms and said, "I'm so disappointed. I thought that I can finally see a perfect archery. But it's not what I expected to be."
Maymar's obsession towards archery was known by his group. And when it came to that thing, Maymar was the best of all. In fact, even the first true devil couldn't match up against his archery despite of the talents.
The emperor knew that if ever something of a perfect archery presented itself, Maymar wouldn't hesitate to get it. As his archery wasn't that beautiful yet, he was pursuing the perfection and beauty of it.
That was also why the emperor was disappointed. Maymar had the ability to at least evade the arrow a bit so that the damage would decrease dramatically. However, he chose to receive it fully instead. But, this was how the devil worked, so he couldn't do anything about it.
"You..." Bastard. That's what Keisa Su wanted to say. But due to extreme fatigue, she couldn't do so. It was the very first time she was very frustrated of her helplessness.
Shila Su was gripping his fists tightly that it almost bled. He was so worried that his face was turning pale. He couldn't help but feel an ominous one right now.
Maymar equipped his black bow once again, stretched his arms and locked target at Keisa Su, "Miss Keisa, I will show you what a perfect archery is. Thank you for the inspiration. Because of you, I have attained it."
Then, Maymar pulled the bowstring and let go of it after a second.
"Boom!" There was nothing to see, yet Keisa Su's right arm was instantly amputated. Blood flowed fast like a river.
"Damn it." Keisa Su immediately tried to heal her wound. However, because of exhaustion, she wasn't able to do so. Her face was getting paler. As an archer who specializes in long range battles, getting her arm severed was like a death sentence to her.
"Give up. You're about to die. What's the point of struggling?" Maymar's tone was cold and distant, "With that attack and your tiredness, I'm sure you know what kind of situation you are in. So, just let me kill you and let's get this done with."
Maymar sent another invisible bow once again. And this time, it was the other arm as the target. And just like before, the remaining arm was severed cleanly and blood was flowing in the two serious wounds.
"Grug!" Losing so many blood, Keisa Su spat a mouthful of bad blood and her vision was turning blurry. It looked like she was losing blood more than she expected.
Seeing this situation, the Rou family couldn't help but feel that their heart stuck in their throats. This scenario was so hard to bear that Xu Rou couldn't help but tear up. As a woman, she knew what Keisa Su was feeling.
If this was already the situation for them, what's more for the person who she had the deepest connection with?
"..." Shila Su was so enraged. However, he knew that he couldn't do something about this because of the universal law present. But as the other half of Keisa Su, he couldn't helo but feel so much hatred and remorse for that devil inside. Though his heart was being pierced by millions of thorns, he was still remaining calm on the outside.
Maymar was delighted by the despair obvious in his enemy's eyes. He couldn't help but say, "How is it, the taste of despair for the first time of your life? Is it good?"
Keisa Su didn't answer the question. She looked like dazing while the blood on her both sides were bleeding tremendously and she's losing blood in a fast pace. If this kept up, she would surely lose her life.
"Why aren't you answering?" Maymar was getting a bit annoyed with this, "Tell me, what's the taste?"
"You're one hell of annoying bastard, aren't you?" Keisa Su's cold voice rang, "You think that you really have won already, huh? I'm sorry to tell you, but it's not yet over."
"Boom!" Keisa Su's shining blood was circulating overhead. It looked like a tornado that was about to annihilate everything.
"Using essence blood? Heh, isn't it too late about that?" Maymar sneered and said. Indeed, Keisa Su was using essence blood. But with how badly hurt her body was, what was the use of it?
No matter how strong her essence blood was, it's useless if you couldn't control it.
"Wham!" Then, the tornado became a giant red bow with shining jewels on its body. Not just that, there were archaic dao symbols imprinted in it, as if it came from the very first year that this universe was born.
Keisa Su stood next to the red bow and released more essence blood. This time, an red arrow was created and immediately had been set.
"Using all of your precious blood, you're going to die, you know that?" Maymar was filled with seriousness. The enemy was willing to trade power in exchange of her life in order to take him down!
Shila Su, this time, shouted and his expression was filled with fear, "No! Don't do it! Please, Keisa, don't!"
He also knew what would happen even if this attack successfully killed the enemy. After all, he knew that all of his wife's essence blood was used just to create that bow and arrow.
Keisa Su heard her husband. But, she paid it no heed. Because if she ever tried to look back, she might falter and cry.
