Electus - Chapter 465
Standing on the front line along with the fine men and women protecting Gaster Kingdom, is Lia.
Since her abilities have leveled up, she can help keep the Guard count stable in the long run so she under the order of the King is to hold 8 hour shifts every day to tame the masses.
It has also become her responsibility to join the battle if the Clawed Demons attack while she is off duty, or asleep. Her working 24 hours a day is pretty darn impossible so might as well add that rule.
Pay-wise she is fairly the one of the evolved who can contribute the most in these troubling times, so of course it is reasonable if she earns more.
Starting next month her pay will be 700 Gold Coins a month! That’s the biggest anyone earns in this Domain and the only person who can beat that pay is Alama, who earns 10% of this Kingdom’s income.
…
“Try it again Eric, you only have a few weeks to train!” Ada encouraged, pulling his arm a tad bit too.
Giving a long soul trembling sigh, Eric mumbled. “Guhhh but I’ve been trying for 3 hours today!”
Shaking his shoulder now a bit, she heavily insisted. “Try for another 3, you don’t want any of your friends dying right?”
Having a bit more motivation to do this, Eric cooperated. “Okay! But stop shaking my arm.”
Smacking him right on the left ass cheek, she added. “Alright, do this and I won’t shake you for a day.”
Thankfully they are alone this time and being close enough towards each other, Eric has to tease. “I have a better idea. If I succeed, you will give me a kiss.”
Holding the urge to smack his thick little ass cheeks again, she agreed. “I’ll give you 2, now man up and cast that move!”
“Okay!” The young Electus stretched one word, and started trying out the move.
Raising his right arm forward and spinning it clockwise slowly, nothing happened for a good one minute and counting. “This isn’t working, I keep wasting time.”
Encouraging, she shook his shoulder again despite the deal and hollered. “Just keep going.”
Holding his one ear with his free hand, he whispered. “Okay not so loud!”
“I have an idea.” Ada mouthed and leaned in to Eric’s side, reaching for his cheek and leaving her mark of territory there. “You can do this.”
His eyes wide, at a bliss no doubt. A dim green light started spiraling from his palm, stretching 2 feet long and straight much like a pole.
“You’re doing it!” Ada celebrated and landed a handful of kisses on his cheek again, as if that’s what the Library is for.
The green spiraling grow near his palm grew richer in colour, started illuminating the dimly lit room.
Tightening his fist, stopping the clockwise spin. He pulled his arm back, the two rays of spinning lights joined together as they grew thicker.
The glow followed his palms, shone a quarter brighter for 5 seconds before it completely disappeared from thin air.
“You did it! Wait, were you holding back just to get kisses?” Ada asked, her eyebrow jerked up too as she glared the Electus from the side.
Smiling, probably a bit guilty. He simply answered, “Nothing you can prove, but I can prove that we made a deal a moment ago.”
“Hmmm right.” Yes well at least Ada won’t go back on her word, she walked in front of him and pulled his head close.
Attaching her lips to his, grating the first ever lip kiss they had and separating after a few seconds, she kissed him above the lips after, touching a bit of his nose too.
Having it hard to stay mad now, she murmured. “You’re lucky I like your cute little moustache.”
“Eeewww you two disgust.” Screeched Ladia, as she walked in the library to study after checking on the Goblin Demons.
Separating from the kiss, but not removing her arms she tied around his shoulders, Ada stated. “He tricked me!! He could do the thing all along.”
Although frozen for a little while since that kiss felt absolutely f.u.c.k.i.n.g amazing, he shook his head to snap out of it and affirmed. “Not really, but uhh the kisses got me distracted from the inevitable fact that I will die out of stress.”
Unwinding one arm from his shoulders so she can slap his ass, Ada teased. “Oh so you are a goth now?”
Not shy to express a burden amongst close friends, he accidentally let out a joke. “Nono, this Crown is making me think nonstop. Even when I don’t want to, what I’d give to be Mogranius right now.”
…
“Demons from the forest!” A Guard shouted from the left side of the walls, alarming the battle souled people.
“Unleash the second breed!” King Michael shouted, standing 10 meters close.
Squinting his eyes, trying to disagree and sweet coating his wordplay too, Arem recommended. “Sire, they are 50 Clawed Demons. It would be better if the Guards handle this one.”
Lia on his side, the King felt confident to add. “Oh they will, we need to test out something. But unleash the second breed, hurry.”
A few seconds later, the Chickens flew from the walls and to the ground, snow burst a meter high in 3 parallel lines as these fascinating mutations made their way to battle.
SPLAT!
Blood burst in between the group of Clawed Demons, it exploded in all sides as if a huge mass punctured one Demon and made it explode but no that’s not the case, it is just 3 extremely dangerous Chickens working together.
Nudging her with his shoulder, snapping her attention away from the blood mist. Michael oriented, “Lia, you know what to do.”
“Oh right.” Lia mumbled to herself and counted the closest Guards.
As fast as she can, she started tossing Dark Orbs against them. Watching the Orbs hit their bodies and disintegrate upon contact.
“Guards!” King Michael hollered, grabbing their attention.
Catching the attention of 10, he demanded as he pointed at the battlefield. “Pull out your swords and get down there, you will fight the Clawed Demons through close combat.”
Although hesitant, ignoring an order for battle would be dishonourable. The Guards would be booed for a few weeks and their coward act would spread like wildfire.
So they made their way down to the main gate, jogged towards the forest and in a split second saw the Chickens coming back, torturing the ground they walk on.
Counting the enemies, they pile up around 15 and are without fear running towards the bundle of Humans, with an aim to rip them apart.
“For Gaster Kingdom!” Arem shouted, standing amongst the close combat Guards.
“For Gaster Kingdom.” The 9 other Guards followed, shaking the ground with their stomps and battle chants.
Bashing his Sword with a sideway attack against the closest Claw Demon, Arem felt his weapon slice right along the Demon’s shoulder.
Pulling it back, he heard the Demon echo in pain and felt the other Swords going… THKUM!
Blazing pain of a sharp Iron cut met with Demonic flesh, as the Guards created a fine barricade of defense.
“You f.u.c.k…” A Guard hollered, cussing at the Demon.
Looking at his own arm, checking his wound… the Guard left himself staggered to notice that there is no blood!
“Hahahaha! You’re weak, Demonic s.l.u.t!” The same Guard shouted, his confidence strong as he bashed his Sword against the Demon once more, piercing its head.
“Holy shit that hurts.” Another Guard mourned, Ignite by skin and fierce by heart.
Staggered, taking a few steps back to have a quick breath, he saw the same Demon flying with a pounce.
Hitting the Ignite Guard across the chest, he feels like this is the end. So much for not wanting to appear like a coward.
The pain on his chest sharp, but this fine Guard has a bit more willpower to fight.
The Clawed Demon got him under, overwhelmed and throwing claw after claw against his face.
Raising his left hand to protect his face, his right palm blood red due to the tight grip.
The Ignite Guard himself felt shocked how the Demon clawing his hand, didn’t burst out blood.
With his right palm, he turned the Sword sideways and with as much strength as he could collect, he bashed it against the Demon’s waist.
Pushing the enemy aside, the Guard took a few seconds to stand up, pulled his Sword out of the Demon after and started torturing what life this enemy has left.
With both hands, the Ignite started bashing the first few inches of his Sword against the Demon’s head.
Over and over, and at the end with all his might he penetrated the Demon head through and through, nailing it against the ground.
Looking at his group, with one more Demon standing and surrounded by the Guards, the Ignite threw himself in the middle and punched the Demon right across the face.
Braking its jaw, knocking it out and continuing to stomp on its head after. Giving a loud whisper, “Demonic bitch.”
…
Gathering as much Guards as one portion of the wall can fit, King Michael announced. “Men and women, as you can see, 10 of our precious Guards took those enemies head on and they don’t have a scratch on them.”
Pushing Lia in front of him, to show her off in front of the Guards. The King continued, “Lia has leveled up with her powers, now she can make anyone indestructible for 2-3 hours.”
AYEEEEEEEE!
The Guards cheered, followed along by heavier chants with their battle morale meeting a significant spike up.
“Lia!”
“Lia.”
“Lia!!”
“Lia!”
“Lia…”
Her name was heard chanted, over and over from the group of Guards. Happy about this, although just a quarter shy. Lia started chanting with them, although yelling. “Guards, Guards.” Instead.
