Chapter 84 The sacrifice... (1)
The black tendril vanished from his eye but he still felt he couldn't survive for long.
His gaze went to the two girls that had stayed with him his whole life. The three of them were orphans that had not lived a good life.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
They might have got a home that took all three of them in but still, their adoptive parent used to beat them.
With time, Jimmy was the only one who took the beating so that his sisters wouldn't get hit. Poison started to fill in the three of them and to hide the permanent scars on Jimmy's face and body. The girls convinced him to get tattoos.
The man who had given his whole life to his sisters so that they could become something in their life was dying and all he could think of was how they will survive when he will not be here.
He had pampered the girls all his life, especially Sandra. Her shy personality was Jimmy's mistake as he had sheltered her too much.
His shoulder hurt a lot but he still gave a smile to them from afar and started climbing again to show them he was alright when inwardly he wanted to scream to his heart's content.
He might be thinking of his sister's well being but deep down, even he wanted to survive. That desperate need to stay alive not for others but for himself, to see the colorful forest again that he had despised so much for all these days.
He went his way back to the leg's top, this time faster to get it over with quickly as the pain was unbearable.
Lucas at this point had cut the undead's hands and legs more than five times and he was still at it. He couldn't think of anything else and also had no choice but to defend and attack like this from the giant.
Jimmy for the first time pierced his sword in the gut's side and then came up with the support of his good hand's grip. The flesh of the gut was very grabbable and wet disgusting him but at the same time relieved his shoulder.
He used his other blade which was free to make a deep horizontal cut inside the center of the gut where the naval was supposed to be.
The undead for the first time looked at Jimmy confused as to why he was getting threatened from his existence for the first time. Jimmy was near the dark matter but the layer of fat was so thick that even the one-meter-long blade couldn't reach the center.
ROAARRR!!!
The undead's roar deafened Jimmy's ears as he was very close to it. Jimmy looked up and saw a big hand nearing him, he was going to leave the blade but realized that it was connected to his body and there was no time to dematerialize it.
It was too late as the undead grabbed Jimmy by the head and pulled him up. Jimmy helplessly got pulled up but when he felt the pull on his neck, he grabbed the hand with both his hands to prevent his neck to break on the spot.
"AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!" The scream that would scar anyone who heard it resounded everywhere. Jimmy kept screaming again and again to the top of his head that his shout started to echo in the fleshy chamber.
"J-Jimmy" Haley wanted to scream but her feet went numb and she got on her knees.
Sandra had nothing to say as not a single word came out of her mouth but she squealed every time she heard him.
"AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!" Jimmy didn't stop, all he could think of was the agony, the undead's grip on his head kept increasing when his body was in the air.
"N-NO!" Lucas exclaimed, his eyes starting to show the concern one shows for the most important people in the world.
Lucas ran, he increased the mana input in the sword instinctively making currents crackle violently over the blade. Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire
When Lucas reached the leg, he slashed with all his might after getting on top of the undead's feet.
SCHWING!!
Lucas didn't know where he got the power nor did he care, his blade cut halfway inside the leg till the blade could reach but weirdly, the current flew all across the body of the undead.
The undead's eyes widened for the first time as after getting electrocuted, the current even reached the dark matter damaging it a little.
But till then, because of the high voltage passed by the blade, the whole leg severed and the undead lost its balance.
The grip of its hand loosened making Jimmy fall off from the height of 20 feet.
Mike with all his might started running but he still couldn't reach it in time.
THUD!!
Jimmy fell on the flesh of the ground making the fall a bit less effective and a lot of sticky liquid splashed everywhere.
Lucas came running to Himmy's aid where Mike was already with him.
"S-Shit..." Lucas couldn't imagine the agony Jimmy felt after seeing that his whole forehead was red in color. His shoulder looked broken as it was in a very bad angle.
"What do I do, Lucas!? What?! Tell me!" Mike said with a pale expression, he kept trying to wake Jimmy up but no matter how much he tried, Jimmy didn't open his eyes.
"Lucas!! Dodge!"
Lucas heard the voice but couldn't tell who shouted.
Suddenly, he felt a chill in his spine and he looked back only to be covered in a dark shadow.
GRIP
Lucas had no time when he got grabbed by the undead on the head just like Jimmy.
'I won't fall for it, bitch!'
SLASH!
Lucas made the slash with his sword at its wrist before the undead could pick him up by the head.
The hand fell down and the fingers lost their strength, Lucas took the time and got out of the grip of the severed hand as he knew it would get pulled back any second.
"HAAAH!!"
Lucas shouted pumping the adrenaline to a new high. He jumped forward in the giant's direction and ran to it while it was on the ground sitting without a leg.
Its leg was already healed and it was trying to get up like a toddler but Lucas found an opportunity and with all his might slashed at the stomach just like Jimmy only to his dismay that his blade was even shorter than JImmy's.
THWACK!
The undead felt threatened again and he slapped his hand on Lucas's side making him fly with the sword still in his hand with speed that it had not shone before.
Lucas went flying to the far ground and went down with a thud, his leg hit the ground first and no matter how spongy it could be, the leg twisted to a different angle after his hip bone broke completely.
What do you think?
