Chapter 181 David Vs Yelena And Leah

?

"Don't go and snoop around others.

"Is all this enough to make me mind potions now?" Aizel asked.

"More than enough," Vespara replied.

"Okay, then I am heading towards Chester Town to see what is actually happening there."

"Be safe pretty boy. Come to my potion shop when you return."

"Okay,"

Aizel switched his attention to Chester town and departed towards it as Vespara was left to gather the materials and the remnants of the colossal serpent.

Meanwhile, in Chester,

The once peaceful town was now engulfed in flames, and its citizens were running for their lives.

Fireballs continued to rain down from the sky frequently, adding to the chaos and destruction.

Amidst the ruins of the burning castle, David found himself in a deadly battle against Leah and Yelena. Their swords clashed loudly, their fighting cries mixing with the screams of the terrified townspeople.

"You were a disappointment then, just like you are now," Yelena said.

As Yelena charged forward with her sword, David swiftly parried her attack using his staff blade, deflecting the blade with ease.

"Like I care," David replied.

Yelena again attempted to strike him with her sword, but David quickly pushed her away and rolled back to avoid Leah's incoming attack, narrowly avoiding her sword.

He scrambled to his feet, and his eyes darted between his mother and daughter, who both held their swords with white-knuckled grips.

David could feel their rage and fear pulsing through the air like a tangible force. Despite the danger, David's mind was sharp and focused on the fight.

He shifted his weight onto his back foot, holding his staff blade at the ready. The three of them circled each other like predators, waiting for the next opening to strike.

"Father must be so happy to see us go against each other, wouldn't he?" David said.

"You disgraceful runt! Don't speak of him after what you have done," Leah said in a low growl. Her eyes were burning in rage.

"And what you have done with me—what about that? You were my family, but what did you do, huh?" He replied. "Left me to die? You always wished I hadn't been born, right mother?"

"Yes, I can say I was always right."

"Do you know where my grandfather is?"

David's mention of their grandfather caused Leah and Yelena to pause for a moment. Their intense gazes remained fixed on David, as they waited for him to speak further.

"While you were enjoying the celebration in the ruined castle, I was taking care of the grandfather.

"Have you found the body yet?" David's lips curled into a malicious grin as he taunted them, savoring their reaction. Yelena's eyes widened with fury, and veins bulged on her forehead at his words.

"W-what did you do with him?" Leha asked.

"Killed him, stabbed him, ripped his face apart, and then threw his body off the cliff hehe."

"ASSHOLE!"

Yelena's body moved at the speed of light as she ran at David, sword in hand. Leah followed her; her movements were more controlled but no less dangerous.

"Hahahah come, let's dance!"

David parried Yelena's sword thrust with a swift move and then countered with a powerful slash. Yelena managed to dodge the attack by taking a step back, her eyes focused on David in rage.

Leah suddenly leaped forward with her sword pointed right at David's stomach.

With quick reflexes, he leaped backward, narrowly dodging the blade as it sliced through the air.

Leah, however, showed no sign of stopping, and she launched another fatal strike. David turned to the side and twisted his body to get out of her next move.

Yelena's quick thinking allowed her to gain the upper hand as she struck David's back, leaving a deep wound.

David tried to retreat from both of them, but Yelena pursued him with another attack.

However, David managed to catch her arm, and their faces came dangerously close as they glared at each other with intense animosity.

Suddenly, David smiled and headbutted Yelena, then kicked her in the stomach to create some distance between them.

His back was in severe pain, and blood was gushing out of the wound, soaking his shirt.

His movements were growing more erratic as he struggled to defend himself against Leah's relentless assault.

He was able to block majority of her blows, but the intensity of her attacks was taking its toll.

As he tried to step back to regain his balance, his foot caught on a piece of rubble, and he stumbled. In that moment of vulnerability, Leah's sword found its mark, piercing deep into his side.

But David refused to go down; with raging madness, he grasped Leah's wrist and pulled her close, headbutting her twice with a sickening crunch.

As she recoiled from the blows, he yanked her arms free from his body and swiftly drove his sword into her guts, pulling it out while quickly making some distance between them.

*pant*

eaglesnov?1,?o? Breathing heavily, David and Leah stood across from each other, their eyes locked in a fierce glare.

Each held one arm tightly against their wounded sides, the blood seeping through their fingers.

"hehehehehahahahah...." Suddenly, David started to laugh.

"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU LAUGHING?" Leah shouted angrily.

"I suddenly had a thought about how a normal man who can't even use mana has already spread such chaos in just a few days.

"With some planning and deception, I was able to get Gilles' eradicated. I killed a Grade V mage.

"My own family, which is another noble family, is already on the brink of destruction; two more noble families are suffering from loss.

"AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO USE MANA...

"Isn't that interesting, Leah?"

"You are going to die today, brother, and I will make sure it isn't an easy death," Leah replied.

"Oh my, I am scared,"

"DAVIDDDD...."

Yelena cried out in anger as she ran full speed toward David, brandishing her sword.

David managed to parry her initial attack, but then she swiftly switched to a shorter sword, catching him off guard. With a powerful swing, Yelena sliced through David's arm just below the elbow.
