The Broken Prince - Chapter 132

“Ooops, my bad.” Alexander spoke with a fake face filled with worry. He then went to charge straight at Hade and plunged the spear at the others chest. The people were watching gasped as they thought that the latter was going to kill Hade. King Lucifer stood up and immediately teleported to where King Zeus was. The sudden appearance shook those who were inside the room.

“L-Luci, I meant King Morningstar-”

“You better tell that boy right now to get his hands of my son or I might get in there and end him myself if he doesn’t stop. My heir may end up dying because your son is getting out of control. You, of all people should have taught him how to control his urges before he ends up severely hurting someone. You of all people should know that.” Lucifer, his words ever so bitter that both could still sense some of their history that they have longed buried but still haunt them till this day.

Both snapped back as a huge explosion was heard. Both looked at the screen and saw that Hade had taken his ultimate form to heal himself and to finally secure the win.

Alexander look at Hade, his body engulfed in hellfire and his abdomen already healed. Alexander was now on the underside of the pillar as he felt the overwhelming power emitted by Hade who held nothing but a stern face and his glare shot directly towards Alexander.

“This had already taken long enough and you have done and talked too much. It’s time for you to finally shut up.” Hade stomped on the ground and the ground cracked into two and a jet of hat lava was ejected from the crack. Everything that was ignitable started to catch fire and the surrounding immediately looked like hell.

“Now try and kill this fire Alex. If you fail, it will cost you your chances of winning and your chance at proving that you are better than me.” Hade was furious at this point and thought nothing of restriction. Alexander has ticked him off completely from the beginning and he will not stand by ever so idly and have himself humiliated by someone who just stepped in.

In fact, he thought that he had the upper hand here, he knew how these things work more than Alexander who was just new in the field. He needed not to be scared of anything because he was not the hunted but is the hunter and he needed to remind himself of that.

He used his powers and ignited the machinery that was disrupted by Alexander himself. Both of them heard a clanking sound under the ground and the soil started to shake vigorously. Alexander was now at full defense as he was now under the power of Hade that being of him starting to manipulate the surrounding. He could feel the heat of the fire surrounding him and it was starting to irritate his body.

People from the sea should never be exposed to fire heat and fire alone for too long as it will make their skin dry and if it is exposed for a long period of time, they will start to wither away and get blown out by the wind.

“Water amidst thy fire, heed my call and do not let fire on my body, now should you befall.” Alexander chanted silently. Water droplets started to roll on the ground and made its way to where Alexander was. Water crystals then started to harden around Alexander’s body and it soon became a sphere. Alexander sighed as he felt the temperature in the enclosure dropped and was then became fit to his liking.

“Ah, another trick of yours?” Hade spoke. He used his power to engulf Alexander with hellfire but it did not affect the latter which just stared at Hade from the inside.

“You should know that if you could not break Kaval’s shield, you will never stand a chance in breaking mine.” Alexander’s voice sounded unbothered and that irritated Hade even more so with all of his might, he smite Alexander down along with the crystalline shield that was protecting him, sending the enclosed boy straight to the wall.

Blood started to drip on Alexanders’ forehead as he started to stand up. He might not have a choice if this keeps going. He don’t want to be knocked out and collapse. That will lead him to his sure loss so he might let his protective barrier down. And so he did.

Hade smiled wickedly, the fire attached to his clothes that never burned brightened. Alexander only realized that Hade was no longer wearing his previous outfit. He was fully dressed for war this time around. He had a blazing cape behind him and his clothing were wrapped in spikes and red rubies. Alexander thought that this was his true and ultimate form and he was not wrong. He became more cautions knowing that the other has had gone all out and anything could happen. He no longer senses the level of power inside Hade like before which makes him blind as he do not know how strong the latter was.

“Burn you pathetic fish!” Hade exclaimed and held his hand up high in the sky. The blood moon was covered in dark and rumbling clouds but it was not thunder that flashed. It was fire as the surrounding continued to flash bright red from time to time and just as when Alexander thought that he could evade the lightning, lava started pouring down like rain. His eyes widened as if he did not find shelter, he will for sure end up dying and loosing.

He quickly turned his head and assessed where he could hide but to his utmost misfortune, he found none. Hade smirked even more seeing the other frustrated. He soon cackled evilly as the other screamed in agony as a droplet of lava burn his skin. He could feel the irritation coming from the other and that made him feel all the pleasure he wanted. He wanted to see the other suffer so bad and prove that he is nothing compared to him. Not even if he has fooled all of them. Not even if he trained so much that he feels broken, Hade Morningstar should always and will always will be above Alexander Archemidius who will be the payment for his fathers’ crime.

Alexander hatefully glared at Hade one time before he sprinted away from where the cloud that rained lava no longer reached him. He needed to act fast as he already felt the pain of the first drop and he already felt like he was being cooked and tortured. He looked at the burnt part of his skin and he felt his eyes welled up in tears as he saw a part of his upper skin wither and flew to the air. He remembered his promise to his late mother who said that he should not let his skin be tainted or get withered as it was hers and his fathers skin, clothed to him when he came about and was blessed to them by the gods before them.

Spite and anger was all he felt at the moment for Hade Morningstar, he just wanted to drown him but he could not as he was recovering from the sudden use of his power. His veins felt like burning and he was one blink away from collapsing if it was not for the power surging in his body, keeping him awake. He ran and ran until he got out of the clouds proximity but just as when he felt safe, the ground he stood at crumbled and he fell to the hole that appeared out of nowhere. He was up on safety grounds but in the blink of an eye, he was in a clumped hole and was standing on the side. He looked up and saw that there were no traces of that cloud so he was relief but assuming was a bad idea. The soil in front of him started to turn red and then red and sticky hot liquid started to drip on the soil below him. His eyes widened as he started to palpitate.

He needed to find a way and get out of here or else he will be a dead prince by the time this clash is over. He will be inside a hard stone which was the lava that covered his entire existence. To his disappointment ad utmost misfortune, there was no way of him getting out and to top it all off, a huge boulder fell out of nowhere and sealed the only exit to the hole shut. Now he was completely trapped and the only source of light that he got was the reddish and orange glow of the molten lava that was starting to spread. It was getting hot and he could feel his skin getting drier and drier over the time that has passed. The only thing that he knew he must do is that he must escape at all cost.
