Battle of Ascension

Chapter 296: I Will Slaughter My Way

At first, Randy confused but soon he became clear as the wounded Monikia told his story to Marin. However, the more he heard the story, the angrier he became.

Marlin used ridiculous reason to cut his men's hands and told him it was a fair trade. Randy stood from his chair as the crimson fire enveloped him from the head to the toe. Not only his body, but his two Infernal Blades also shrouded in the crimson flame.

Looking at this, Monikias in the room alerted, and they made a stance as two golden sticks in each their hands. However, Marlin calmed down, ordering his men to get back.

"See, this is the proof. You almost killed him and I cut ten hands from your ten men, it was a fair trade," Marlin stated calmly.

"You can go from this island with your twenty men and I will forget for what you have done just now. Like I said earlier, we have no intention to get into your hostile side, and we promise that we would never attack your territory,"

"How ridiculous you are. You are hiding from us since we arrived here and then you were capturing my men and cut their hands for an absurd reason. Almost killed one of your men and you blamed me while you were spying on us?"

"Hehe," Randy let out his usual chuckle before his face turned into a solemn and fierce as another wave of the Dragon Aura swept inside the circular house, "There's no need for us to talk again over this matter, I will slaughter my way to save my men,"

Wung!

The light sphere with over ten meters spread around Randy and a sword after sword made of dark red energy formed. The atmosphere inside the circular house immediately became tense as the other Monikia gripped their golden stick.

However, Marlin acted faster than everyone in the room. In the blink of an eye, he arrived right before Randy. Marlin also had four hands like the usual Monikia, two hands were gripping Randy's shoulders, and another two hands were aiming at Randy's neck.

The other Monikia cheered at their chief. But the cheer didn't last long as the dark red sword surrounded Marlin. From their point view, their chief would die if he didn't release the human in the black armor.

Randy smirked at Marlin who recklessly charged into his Sleight of Sword Expanse. Marlin realized that if he didn't release Randy, the dark red sword strike a fatal injury on him.

Marlin released Randy from his grips and backed out. However, the dark red streak line kept aiming at the retreated Marlin until he got himself out from the light sphere.

After that, Marlin distanced himself 5 meters away from the light sphere. He looked at Randy with a shocked look. Earlier, there were only 10 dark red swords formed around him. But now, there were 52 dark red swords floating around Randy.

He was barely got away from the light sphere when there were only 10 dark red swords. However, there were 52 dark red swords now. If he entered the light sphere recklessly like before, he was dead for sure.

Marlin immediately got his weapon out. Four golden sticks with 2 meters long in his four hands. However, there were many swords on his fours hands afterward. It was a cut wound he received earlier when he was in the light sphere. He didn't leave unscathed from the light sphere.

"Chief!"

The eight Monikias inside the circular shouted simultaneously as the blood oozed out from the cut wound. It was only a single exchange between the human and their chief, yet their chief was in a disadvantage.

They wanted to rush over to help, but Marlin stopped.

"Get back! Don't get near to him, stay away!!!" Marlin yelled at his own subordinates as he noticed they wanted to help. However, he was clear they were not a help of him, but a burden for him, and it was the same as suicide if they faced Randy.

He was clear about the terror of the light sphere and he was clear his own subordinates' capability. So he ordered them to get back before using his skill to face Randy.

After the shout, Marlin's body became two, four, eight, and sixteen. There were sixteen Marlin, and all Marlin was the same, they had the cut wounds on their four hands, four golden sticks in their hand, and the same posture.

Randy surprised a little, but that surprise broke into a smile as an eager could be looked on Randy's face.

Whoosh!

Randy dashed over Marlin and the light sphere followed along with the fifty-two dark red swords inside the light sphere.

Marlin had prepared for this and the sixteen Marlin also dashed forward to the light sphere.

Fifty-two streak lines were attacking at the sixteen Marlin and Randy surprised as the "clang clang" noise sounded each time the golden stick blocked the dark red sword.

Randy surprised as he witnessed. He thought the fifteen Marline was the fake one and only one Marline who was real, but to his surprise the sixteen Marlin was real.

Randy was controlling the Myriad Chiliastic Sword to attack the sixteen Marlin at the same time and the sixteen Marlin kept blocking each sword attack.

Even though the sixteen Marlin could block the swords perfectly, he could not get closer to Randy even an inch.

...

Meanwhile, the Monikia tribe surround the circular house. They were tense as they looked at the circular house. When their chief ordered them to get away, they obediently went out from the circular house.

However, they felt uneasy as the situation inside was unknown. Even though they trusted their chief, but they realized how fearful the human was when their chief wounded in one exchange.

There were over a hundred Monikia outside the circular house. They were waiting for the result the fight and prepared for all possible contingencies.

"Reon, do you think the Chief can win?" Torin asked the Monikia who had a deep cut wound on his chest in a worried tone.

He was clear how strong Marlin was, but after witnessing the first exchange between the leader of human force, how the human could give Reon a fatal injury in one strike, and how helpless he was the human's foot pressed his head down.

Torin could not help but worried over Marlin. He asked Reon who had experienced the human's ability.

Reon also had a worried look as his eyes never left the circular house. Hearing Torin's queries, Reon shook his head, "I don't know,"

It was what came out from Reon mouth at Torin's queries, but it was quite clear in his heart that his chief was nowhere close to the human. At least, Chief Marlin could not achieve what the human did to him.

However, Reon didn't say it out those words. He didn't want to make his fellow villager became worried as him.

Just as the Monikias were monitoring the circular house, there was a woman's voice traveled into their ears.

"Oho, so it was these monkeys who make trouble,"

Hearing the woman's voice, over a hundred Monikias turned their head to where the voice came from.

They saw there were seven humans stood 20 meters away from them. There were three women and four men.

"No wonder we could not find them, they built their house on the top tree," Akihiro scanned the surrounding.

"They are smarter than the other beasts we have met so far," Asuka nodded her head at her boyfriend's remark.

Meanwhile, Zhen Yi and Long Xinya's eyes glued at the certain ten Monikias. Their eyes were glowing in the excited light as an eager look appeared on their face.

Bruak!

The silver streak line flung out from the circular house and over a hundred Monikias were familiar with that silver figure. It was Chief Marlin.

However, Chief Marlin was different from the beforehand Chief Marlin. The current Chief Marlin had twelve hands and three heads. Despite transformed into a strange figure, his body was full with the cut wounds as the silver fur slowly turned into the bloody red as the red blood flowed from the cut wound.

"Chief!!!"

The over hundred Monikias shouted at the same time and rushed over to help. However, a crimson streak line was faster than them as they saw the crimson shadow was right above Chief Marlin.

"No!!!"

"Don't!!!"

Over a hundred furious shouts sound throughout the village. But the shouts was useless as the crimson shadow slammed his two swords which shrouded in the crimson fire at their Chief Marlin.

The Silver Monikia was falling down at the frightening speed after the two swords slammed to his body and accompanied with a "booming" sound afterward.

Boom!

However, the human who shrouded in the crimson flame didn't stop his pursuit of Marlin as he descended with swift speed, leaving an afterimage.

Over a hundred Monikias also followed and Zhen Yi's group also descended. When they reached on the ground, they saw a pit with the bloody figure was lying down, and Randy who shrouded in the crimson flame had his sword on the bloody figure's neck.

"W-Wait," The bloody figure tried to say something, but blood spurted out from his mouth as he gasped for breath.

"Please listen to my words," The bloody figure spoke in one-go before losing his consciousness.
