Chapter 43 Slaughter
Arius lifted his right hand toward the sky.
He left his hand in place, not moving an inch.
Alastair stared at this like it was a joke.
The king stepped forward to grab the mysterious figure and restrain him.
All of a sudden Arius dropped his hand toward the ground like a hammer.
The sky started to pour down on the army with heavy rain the next second later lighting was showing across the sky and thunder was like a lion's roar across the land.
Seeing this supernatural event taking place Alastair stared at the sky in shock.
The whole army was in utter disbelief.
Did this mysterious man cause this or was it a fluke? Everyone present was thinking this.
"I told you I would slaughter thousands of your men around you and push you into hell." Arius smiled behind his mask.
His words snapped the army and Alastair to look in his direction.
"You are pathetic, I do not see any of my men dead!" Alastair yelled in anger.
Arius's eye's turned golden behind his mask.
All of a sudden a gigantic lighting bolt that was shaped into a dragon came down from the heavens.
"What the fuck!?" A foot soldier screamed looking upward.
One after the other soldiers and mages looked into the sky to see a lightning bolt dragon coming down at a rapid speed.
Alastair fell on his butt at this scene and turned his head back toward the army. "Call the mages and order them to activate a barrier!" He ordered.
1,000 mages stepped forward from the back and all put up their hands before casting a barrier.
"Wall of light!" A thousand mages all yelled in unison.
A yellow light began to sparkle out of their hands before connecting with the other lights making a giant golden barrier that covered a mile around the army.
BOOM!
The lighting dragon made contact with the barrier causing a shake to occur.
Arius's eyes began to glow more golden than before.
The lighting dragon grew five times larger with more electricity sparking out of its body.
Crack! Crack!
The barrier began to shatter.
"We need more mage's!" Alastair roared in fear as he ordered the rest of the mages to add to the barrier.
The foot soldiers all placed shields in front of their bodies just in case the barrier broke.
The rest of the 24,000 mages all placed their hands toward the sky and added to the light barrier which caused the barrier to stop cracking.
Arius's eyes again began to glow more golden this time becoming pure gold.
The lightning dragon became a hydra with three heads of electricity.
Like it had a mind of its own the lighting hydra stopped attacking the barrier and instead flew backward a little.
Stopping in mid-air the hydra let out a distorted roar which caused lighting and thunder to rage in the sky.
"ROOOOOOARRRRRR!!!"
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
With this roar, the hydra charged with all three heads crashing into the barrier causing it to shake.
CRACK!
Seeing the barrier crack thousands of mages began to feel the emotion of fear run through their bodies.
Alastair who stood up from the ground ran desperately into the army pushing through soldiers.
BREAK!
The light wall shattered like dust.
The giant electricity hydra crashed into the soldiers causing tens of thousands of soldiers to be electrocuted.
Thousands of screams of agony were heard across the land.
General Harp closed his eyes with pure fear of seeing his men being murdered.
feeling the fear like everyone else in the army Harp without thinking roared a command. "KILL HIM!" He pointed his sword charging on his horse.
Tens of thousands of soldiers began to charge with their weapons like wild Vikings trying to conquer new land.
The mages all hurried to their positions and began to enchant strength and other buffs to the soldiers.
Arius stared at this with cold eyes.
He took out a black katana which had ice, fire, and water all over the sharp tool.
Closing his eyes he swung his sword slowly to his right side.
All of a sudden blood began to spurt and ooze on the battlefield with thousands of bodies cut in half and other body parts hitting the ground.
With one slow swing, Arius could easily kill thousands like it was a second-hand nature like breathing.
More soldiers ran at Arius with battle cry's echoing throughout the land.
"DIE!"
"FOR THE DYNASTY!"
"BEGONE!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
For screams could be heard echoing throughout the bloody battlefield.
Thousands of soldiers all at the same time surrounding Arius swung their weapons at his neck trying to get a clean cut.
SPURT!
The weapons began to impale his body causing blood to fly in the air.
Alastair who was crouching behind a shield that was covered by organs and blood looked over at this scene with a horrifying smile.
The king stood up from behind the shield and cleaned up the wet blood on his body.
Walking over to the killed mysterious man he began to laugh. "Hahahaha, you were strong but you were not strong enough!" The king spits a load of saliva on his lifeless body.
"Let's move onto the Holy Kingdom!" Alastair ordered his troops while he walked back to his carriage.
"Leaving so soon?" An unknown voice came from the sky.
"..." Alastair was awestruck when he looked upward.
The person they just impaled with hundreds of sharp objects sat on a throne made up of skulls that screamed death.
Alastair was about to open his mouth until he noticed the mysterious person removing his mask.
When the mask came off every mage soldier or any living being began to shake in shock.
A young boy around the age of 10 with cute facial features looked down at them like he was a divine god that was punishing them.
Arius's eyes turned gold. "Kneel..." He ordered.
A wave of pressure fell onto the land out of nowhere forcing the hundreds of thousands of men and women to kneel.
"Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible!!!" Alastair repeated his words like a crazy person his voice shook like crazy with fear overwhelming his body.
Arius looked down with indifferent eyes like they were just mere cattle to him.
"H-H-H-How!!!" Alastair was on one knee bowing his head but his voice shook the ground.
"How?" Arius responded with a cold tone.
Alastair forced his head upward going against the blood pressure which was deathly.
"Ho-How c-can you b-be thi-this strong!?" He asked with a scream his head which was looking up for a second crashed to the ground.
"I guess you could say I was blessed by the gods and goddesses and now I think it's my time to introduce myself to the world don't you think it would be a nice introduction to start off with all of your executions?" Arius's eyes turned back to red crimson which showed pure power.
