The Extra Wants Control

Chapter 149: Shakespeare's Classic... Or is it Tragic?

'Then the liquid on my face is...?' He raised a hand to his face, his fingers slick with something wet, lt was blood, Dorcas' blood.

"Tsk,I missed." Kai's voice with a hint of annoyance, rang in Ronald's ears.

Kai ungently removed his hand from Dorcas' chest.

She coughed, she looked at Ronald. "Dear," She said, her voice weak, it was guilty, apologetic and full of resolve all at the same time...

"Hubby... sob.. sob I'm sorry for cheating on you. It was a stupid mistake I realize that now... What I did was inexcusable I know... I hope you forgive me… You are the only one I love dear..." Her voice trailed off.

" Shut up! Don't talk like this now... Just wait for yourself heart to heal up... Wait why isn't it healing... Dorcas stop joking... Hey are you listening to me...

Is there a healer here... Wait the potions... Shit! I didn't bring any with me today... You must have it on you? Wait where's your ring?

Hey DORCAS!!?" He yelled as a heavy palm attack sent him flying back and Dorcas jumped on Kai hugging him with her hands and legs...

But her eyes, burning with an unnatural red glow, met his as she shed a single tear... "Please stay alive... I love you dear."

Ronald's heart beat heavy against his ribs as he saw this it was painful to watch.

He knew what she was doing or atleast what she was about to do. Her body started glowing red, she was overloading her circuits and mana Circles... She was converting her mana to output but she didn't let it go... She held it with her ... Everything was overloading...

" DORCAS, NO!" Ronald roared as he made a mud tentacle that he struck himself with which propelled forward towards Dorcas... He was feeling betrayed by the thought of Dorcas' suicide attempt...

" DON'T YOU DARE! NOO..."

But it was too late. Dorcas pushed him back again with a surprising final burst of strength, her body's red glow intensifying with every passing second.

Then, with a final choked sob, she closed her eyes and tightly held on to Kaiis body making various binding runes on her arms.

Then a blinding light erupted, engulfing them both. A 7 star killed herself... the result was a devastating shockwave that was felt even by the commoners in the bunkers.

A crimson shockwave rippled outwards, painting the sky a hue of bloody red.

" The sky is lighting up a lot today huh..." Neveah thought watching the battle from afar...

"And when is that Theodore character coming here? Like damn he'll be here when everything is over... Most people are dying, dead or ran away... Sigh~ atleast I'm getting my soldiers... Great thing I'm not bound by the 'you have to kill them rule'... If I participate it counts...

Well I did alot of experiments to succeed... Planting curses on these 7 Stars is not easy sigh~" Neveah thought as he looked at his increasing army.

The earth trembled, and a shockwave ripped outwards, sending Ronald backwards as his body skidded on the ground....

He lay there, ears ringing, vision blurry with tears... The scene replaying on his mind over and over again.

The battlefield fell silent.

The remaining nobles amd commoner stunned by the horrific self destruction, had stopped fighting. Some people who were close died...

The aftermath of the devastating blast, only smike and a huge crater where Dorcas once stood remained.

Ronald heard that voice again... The voice of the man he hated deeply

"Honestly... what did that accomplish?"

It was the same disdainful voice, dripping with an arrogance that filled should have made Ronald fuming right now but he couldn't... His heart ached too much...

He forced his head to turn, his gaze landing on Kai, who stood unscathed at his feet were Dorcas' four limbs scattered around him.

" Before the explosion, he broke free of the woman's hold... Taking her limbs with her, honestly why does this Kai seem better than the one I fought?" Thought Neveah.

"Today, nothing is stopping me from killing you," Kai declared, his voice flat and emotionless.

He raised a hand, his hand coated and crackling with blue lightning... He put his hand on Ronald's soft bald head.

A part of Ronald wanted him to run away, but his limbs felt heavy, unresponsive. He sighed as he remembered that there was nothing to live for anymore... His wife was dead and that could be his fault as he refused to run away... If only he did.

He knew he couldn't live with the guilt so he gave up and didn't resist.

"What a morbid Romeo and Juliet." Neveah said looking at Ronald who was giving up...

Ronald's body started grossly inflating, from his neck, his stomach and his head till it popped.

"Pop!" Blood splattered everywhere except on Kai who had coated his body with lightning type aura.

"Now, this was a good fight, To think I thought that Kai was using his lighting only like some sort of close combat mage but he the whole time he was an aura user... His aura had a lightning nature... This is interesting... Though useless to me cause I don't use aura.. but maybe someone can use this information" Neveah said.

"A good display of power… now this is a fight between eight-stars... That's how an 8 star should fight, like Kai " He said small smile. "Too bad they didn't have any laws used their little duel. I know Kai doesn't have one... I confirmed it but what was Baldy's excuse?"

He stood up stretched his body lazily, a yawn escaping his lips. " Oh well, I got what I needed for now. Let's head to phase two!"

With that, Neveah turned and vanished back into the shadows as darkness seemed to swallow hos whole body.

Groans and murmurs rippled through the crowd of nobles. They were shaken but at least were alive.

Suddenly Theodore arrived and saw it he immediately ordered," capture every noble here... The key word is capture... Even if they resist... I want them to be alive and in chains."

He then turned to Kai and said, " Thank you for holding up the fort."

" No problem." Kai said and he moved to the city there was a lot on his mind, the warning flame attack he suspected was from black mask and how to rebuild the city and even he was expecting another attack from the Nobles.

" He looked so sexy right now... I'm considering changing my ownership... O want a new master" The pervert surbodinate of Theodore said and Theodore honestly couldn't care less about this pervert's rambling... He felt something was wrong with this situation and he didn't know what it was and that wasn't good...

Not good at all...

[ Commoner's Camp]

An hushed and panicked murmur buzzed through the bunkers where a bunch of vampires were waiting out the fight... here there were mostly children and weak adults, 6 star and below which in the commoner world was like practically everyone.

Two young girls, Ivy and Patricia, huddled close, their voices low as they spoke in worry and fear. For young women especially the commoners who were weak... A noble vampire attack didn't mean well... They would be the ones to suffer through all forms of torture and some didn't even make it out alive...

"Did you hear?" Ivy leaned in to hear what Patricia was about to say.

"The nobles… they're going to attack again, more often."

"What? Why?" Ivy said in worry.

"Word on the street is someone stole their precious tokens, those indestructible things," Patricia patiently.

"And apparently, their prime suspect is Kaiser's group." Someone else added to their conversation it was a Middle-aged man.

"A friend of mine who trains with them said there was a fight today," He said his face grim.

"And Kaiser… he killed a whole bunch of them." Said another person right now the crowd was getting bigger...

"Isn't that… good?" Ivy stammered in confusion she didn't understand why people were so worried.

"They were the ones coming after us, weren't they?" She added.

Patricia sighed and shook her head and said. "It would have been great if there were no survivors, that's for sure. But guess what? Some of them escaped."

" Oh no! Does that mean..." Ivy finally got it.

"Yeah… retaliation." Patricia nodded slowly.

"Exactly," someone said grimly.

"Kaiser shouldn't have killed anyone if he couldn't kill them all. Now things are just gonna get worse."

" You are awfully ungrateful, aren't you? Kaiser saved us... What did you do? You hid here with me... You don't know what he went through in that fight yet you want to complain.... Come here I'll give you something to really complain about..." Shouted another man who defended Kaiser.

" This is hard... If only I had help! Doing this alone is bothersome... These soldiers would be better if they spoke..." Sighed Neveah as he complained internally.... He was now shape shifted into a common type Vampire.

Then Neveah said," woah... Whoa calm down... We are all worried here... Let's not let out our fear amd frustration on each other."

" Mehn... Shut the fuck up!" Someone punched Neveah who acted and fell down.

" I really hate phase two... I should just kill them all, no?" Thought Neveah who was on the ground touching his face.
