Chapter 930
I create a dark barrier, repelling all of their attacks against an impenetrable wall. However, I only held it up a second before I let it drop. The knights charged, just like I wanted. As soon as they walked onto the land that was designated as part of the boss room, I attacked them. My movements were explosive. I felt like I had eyes all over the room. I could understand how dungeon bosses were so powerful. The dungeon was like an extension of their body, and they could sense anything within it. No one could dare hide or do a sneak attack. I had complete control of the confrontation.
I attacked without hesitation, cutting down knight after knight. I use my sword, carpeting in miasma, and then striking with aggressive and brutal hits. Every attack reminded me of the humans they were happy using. When I had teleported behind them, I had seen the group of slaves, ordered to sit down in a circle, casually awaiting the point until they were dragged up and slaughtered, all so a woman could save herself a two day wait.
They didn’t even have someone watching the humans. They were bonded with slave marks, and if they defied, they would only have death awaiting them. Since they had no protection, if a monster happened to wander close, it could easily snatch one of them and then run away before the knights had time to react. I only felt more and more anger as I thought about this, and I found my movements moving even more aggressively. When another six fell despite the knights fighting with their full ability, their courage finally broke. There were only six of them remaining, and they didn’t even have their mounts anymore.
As they tried to flee, I created a wall of fire that covered the edge of my domain, blocking them inside. At this point, Nerissa had finally realized the situation was heading south. She was the only one outside the firewall. Her legs seemed to want to run, but she also felt like jelly, unwilling to abandon her troops. She could only watch helplessly as I killed the remainder.
The last man begged for his life but filled with rage, I didn’t even hesitate to cut him down. At this point, the fire wall diminished, and my eyes fell on Nerissa. She let out a cry, trying o back up, but she stumbled and fell on her butt. I started to walk toward her.
“Wh-who are you?”
“Your death… that’s all you need to know.”
“I-I’m a princess! If you kill me, the Fey Emperor will have your head! You’ll never be safe!”
“Why do I care?”
She tried to pull herself back, trying to escape me, but I kept walking toward her.
“Please… I’ll do anything! Don’t kill me!” She screamed. “Money! Power! Humans!”
I stopped for a moment, but when she said humans, I continued forward again.
“Y-you monster! Demon!” Her eyes suddenly flashed. “Y-you’re him, aren’t you? The Demon King! I heard about him! You must be him!”
“I’m not a demon.” I sneered, letting the illusion spell draw and display my true features. “I’m human.”
I raised my sword.
“Y-you’re… the Human King!” She cried out, her words filled with horror, the name filled with just as much malice as Demon King.
“I am!” I swung my blade.
