The Broken Prince - Chapter 118
The others could only watch in horror as a ball of white and electrifying light formed before them. Alexander the opened his arms and spread his legs letting the pent up energy escape and as soon as it did, everyone went flying away. The power supply of the whole dome shut down momentarily as streaks of electricity crawled everywhere.
They thought that it was over but how wrong they were. The shock wave that came after was stronger than the previous one they’ve felt. It shattered and ignited a fire on all of the equipment and mechanism inside the dome not allowing it to change into another setting of event
Alexander then slowly went back down and dusted himself lightly. He looked at Apollo and Kaval that was on the ground puking blood. He could sense how many bones were broken in them, what organ has been battered and if they were still able to fight. And them being true to their words that they were strong, they stood up and faced Alexander once more.
“I fair warning. This second blast might put you out of the competition for good so if you do wake up in another place. Then you lost”.
Alexander spoke ever so blatantly as if he did not mind anything that the others were feeling. Kaval and Apollo were still on the ground crawling and was clutching on to their abdomen as they coughed out some more blood. Amidst everything that was happening, Alexander got to focused on the two that he did not notice Hade aiming a burning spear directly at him and before he even knew it, the burning spear penetrated his flesh and blood gushed out from his right shoulder.
Although the pain struck him by surprise as it was really an agony to be felt with but he only groaned lowly and turned to Hade who had his eyes burning. Retaliation was the thing that was in the mind of Alexander but before he was able to do so, as soon as he started to summon his power, his internal parts of the body then started to burn. He looked at the dagger and noticed that every time he wanted or started to summon his power, it will start to glow and agonizing heat is emitted on his body.
Like any other person would, Alexander held the dagger and attempted to pull it out from his body but the pain was starting to seep into him. It was worse that what he felt before. And just as he thought that he went numb, a distinct level of pain was offered to him.
“My hand may have slipped but it really isn’t my bad.” Hade spoke. Alexander could only glare at the other as he tried so hard to remain unbothered and suppress the scream that he wanted to let go. Dianne summoned her power and then encircled Alexander once more of sharp thorns but her efforts went to despair as a white circle of shield immediately surrounded the latter.
Doing so became so hard because of the burning dagger that came from Hade that summoning his shield was so easy but as he did now, it felt like his insides were churned into pieces and was thrown over into a fire chamber than turns bodies into ash. He endured as he did not want to experience no more pain.
“You know that spear that’s sticking in on your shoulder is what we call the spear of all demons. It is believed to be the a spear that was once used by the gods and used it to cleanse the world from the impurities-”
“I never knew you were so knowledgeable about history. Too bad I can’t spare an ear to listen to that bullshit.” Alexander spoke.
Hade stopped and looked at Alexander before smirking.
“You have become even more feisty.”
“Is that why you like me?” Alexander answer caught Hade off guard as he looked at the other if he was serious but based on the bored face of the other, his intention and motives were unclear and was covered by a thick haze.
“Bold of you to assume Alex. I recall nothing of such.” Hade tried to played it as Dianne was staring at the two of them. Kaval and Apollo on the other hand were still on the ground as Dianne healed them but they too heard what Alexander said which brought the others thought into a series of scribbles.
Alexander on the other hand has seen the cue that it was a distraction to his opponent thus he decided to use it as a weapon despite having to tug the strings of his heart himself. He acted like he was really bored and all but deep inside, he was taking this opportunity to see how the other thinks about him. he believed that all Hade said was a lie but now seeing him all so flustered is making Alexander confused.
“Oh is that it? Is that also the reason as to why you instructed the event organizer back at the academia to look for me and then bring me to a dark room where you were waiting and questioned me as to why do I have to be this beautiful?” Alexander spoke chuckling at the last sentence. He lowered his shield down and did not even mind if it hurt like hell when he did that as he felt another sense of power seeing the person who is always confident flickering by his words.
“Never knew that you were such a good story maker-”
“Ha! A story maker you say? Well to the audience, would you like to see a new type of essence in the battle field? Perhaps drama? Well here goes.” Alexander spoke looking at the camera before he looked back at Hade who’s eyes were staring at Alexander the whole time.
“First of all, I do not need to make a story because I am the story. And why would I lie about such things about you when Apollo is basically there ready to take me out. You know, you are so full of bullshit. You speak like that but you act different. Can’t make up your mind? Well I can’t blame you though. I know that I am too much for you to handle- fuck!” Alexander was doing so well until Hade has had enough with the latter blabbering things that he thought would stay between them.
Because of the rage building up in him, he summoned numbers of the same dagger and plunged it directly towards Alexander. The other on the other on the other hand was not able to hold out anymore as he fell down to his knees and gripped the burnt grass in agony.
“You know why I don’t like you? Because you talk to much.” Hade spoke before he gripped the others throat and threw him on the other side of the platform like Alexander was a piece of paper.
“Hade, I can’t heal them. Let’s just let them be, we need to win!” Dianne spoke. The truth is Dianne won’t be able to fully heal the two injured royalties as no matter how hard she try, the injuries wont heal for some reason. Hade nodded and looked at the other two that was now unconscious. The pain that they were feeling and the amount of blood that was leaking from their body made the two collapse no matter how hard they tried. Thus, a huge bang echoed throughout the entire arena as the logo of the wind and land disappeared leaving only nature, fire and water.
“Alexander, tell me more about it when we finish this but for now, let’s get you to sleep. You’re way past your bed time.” Dianne spoke and used her powers to summon huge vines in the size of a persons leg. They encircled Alexanders legs and arms and grabbed his body and made it stick to the ground. His face was on the side as he was facing down the platform.
Alexander on the other hand could not move his body as the weight of the vines that were on him were too much and too heavy than that of his own combined body weight.
He felt the heel of someones shoe stomp on his face. He felt like a stone was slammed on his head as he felt very dizzy and pain struck from his head down to his whole body. He could no longer see straight but he knew who the person was.
“Can’t speak? Come on, the story was quite getting interesting. I would very much like to know how me liking you went.” Hade imitated the other who only could groan. The spear was now poking on Alexanders back as they were thrown even deeper as he fell to the ground.
Hade and Dianne were so sure that they were going to win but there was still one thing that Alexander trained so hard for.
