Chapter 1051: Childish Duo
Chapter 1051: Childish Duo
A curse from a god is very effective. The cursing is particularly high in Hindu gods. Whenever they were insulted by their subordinates in a direct or an indirect way, they will throw a curse and that subordinate will be effected by it. Even if there is no direct effect from the words and there are no immediate results, depending on the gods rank, the fate would twist in order to make the curse a reality.
Many followers who received the curse tried to get rid of them by going above and beyond, in fact some curses run for generations and all of those generations will only have one ultimate goal, to get rid of the curse and revive themselves.
Same goes for the Merene family.
But it is not that easy.
Since it happened because of the twists of fate, there is no way they would be able to get rid of that easily. But now, the Merene family head has one way right in front of his eyes, there is no way he would be willing to let go of that.
Even if he has to sacrifice every single one of the Merene family members, he would do it as long as one direct descendant survived.
He immediately called for the whole family meeting within the temple grounds which is the only place that could house that many people.
He called for every descendant of the family and some core outer section members.
It would take a while, to gather them all, but everyone did get the message.
So, all of them are about to make a move to the family estate. Most of them reached within a few minutes. But some of them, particularly the ones that are targeted by the teammates of Sam are not able to go.
Sam looked at the confrontations happening in different areas with some snacks and drinks in his hands.
He anticipated for a good fight. But most of them are at most lackluster. They went there and are done with their opponents in merely few minutes and even brought them to the city gate waiting for others to finish.
But there is one fight that is really entertaining.
The fight between four people, a fight between Saber Monarch and Vidyut with the twins of Merene family.
The twins are both space elemental users. They are warrior mages with spatial element along with a decent expertise in formations, and they are good at fighting as duo than a single person.
Sam focused all his attention on this one fight.
Saber Monarch and Vidyut are currently standing in front of the twins in the market square.
Twins were just minding their own business and were about to return to their family estate when they received the message, but Saber Monarch and Vidyut appeared out of nowhere and stood there in front of them.
When they tried to walk away, all of a sudden, the duo took out their weapons and the twins stopped in their tracks.
“Brother, it seems like our friends from nowhere are too eager to spend some time before their departure.”
“Then, we shouldn’t disappoint them as hosts can we?”
With that, both of them took out their daggers and spatial energy surged around them.
The bystander instantly understood that they are in the presence of some event that is way out of their league and ran away.
The twins ran towards the duo with their daggers, but when the duo was also about to move, the twins disappeared from the spot and reappeared a few centimeters away from the duo with their daggers descending on their vitals.
Saber Monarch swung is saber and blocked the dagger that was about to come down on his neck, while Vidyut used his bow to block daggers that were about to be thrust in his back.
“Twins, which one of you guys is older?” Saber Monarch asked.
The twins were bewildered and didn’t know what to say.
“It is you right? Tell me it is you.” Vidyut asked the twin that is trying to push his daggers forward but was being continuously blocked by the bow.
“Why would it be him? Of course, it is this guy.” Saber Monarch said as he pointed at the twin that attacked him.
The twins exchanged a glance and took a step back before going back to their original position.
They looked at the Saber Monarch and Vidyut who are yelling at each other.
“Why would the older one go for you? He is obviously going for me.” Vidyut yelled as he looked at Saber Monarch.
“Of course, he would go for me, didn’t you hear anything in our investigation. The older is stronger and he will go after the stronger opponent. Why would he be going after a half-assed archer like you?”
“Like hell, he will pick a saber brute over me.”
“Who are you calling a brute, you cowardly archer.”
They are arguing about who is being picked by the older twin, yesterday they argued about who is going to deal with the toughest guy. Sam knew that Saber Monarch is a childish guy, but he didn’t expect the same from Vidyut, he really felt like bashing these two, but he couldn’t because he is weak at the moment.
The twins started attacking trying to take the advantage of the fact that the duo is distracted in their own argument and it almost looked like they are about to fight.
But no matter how much they tried to mess up their timing and use the spatial abilities to their advantage, their attacks are being blocked right before they managed to hit.
Even while arguing the duo are stronger than the twins individually.
The twins tried a few more moves, but since it is not working, they retreated.
“The older twin said.”
“It seems like we need to dive straight to the trump card. There is only one way to get rid of them.”
“But if we cannot, we would die.”
Both of them are solemn, unlike the duo.
They activated spatial elemental fusion and one of them blinked to the opposite side.
At this moment, the duo is in the middle of the twins who stood far away from each other and they stabbed the daggers with spatial energy into the ground at their feet.
All of a sudden, the duo stopped their argument and looked around, even though nothing seems strange for his eyes, they felt like they are locked inside a room. The twins disappeared from their spot.
“Oi, twins. Don’t tell me you guys escaped?”
Saber Monarch yelled, but all he could hear in response is his echo.
At this moment, even Sam frowned as he looked at the live feed. From what he could see, the twins are standing in their spot with spatial elemental fusion and he couldn’t hear Saber Monarch’s words even though he could clearly see him yelling.
The twins slowly stepped forward, but they disappeared at the spot. It is as if they are walking into an invisible door.
Then only Sam faintly understood and he became interested in how the duo will react.
As Saber Monarch and Vidyut tried to extend their spiritual sense, they could see that it is not exactly possible to do so. They couldn’t see past a few meters and they couldn’t hear anything outside.
Saber Monarch lunged forward to walk away, but as soon as he took two steps, a dagger came towards his face.
He barely managed to dodge it as he moved away, but still, a deep slash appeared on his shoulder.
Vidyut was also alerted and got ready with his bow, he felt some cold sensation on his back, but when he tried to block it, it was already too late as he took a faint slash on it.
But when the duo looked for the attackers, they couldn’t see them, they appeared and disappeared in a single second.
Saber Monarch and Vidyut completely stopped their childish antics and instantly became vigilant. As they looked around, suddenly both of them turned towards each other, in the middle of them the twins appeared and swung their daggers.
Saber Monarch and Vidyut both had faint slashes on their hand as they tried to block the attacks.
The two flashes appeared and disappeared as they came and attacked as they liked. Saber Monarch and Vidyut slowly moved away from each other due to constant dodging and soon there is almost a distance of a hundred meters between them before they hit the walls.
They understood by now that they are inside a barrier, but they didn’t expect that the barrier is this large.
The twins are separating them to avoid getting a back-to-back fight against the two, they knew that they are useless in direct confrontation, so they resorted to this.
As the Saber monarch and Vidyut are trying to think of a way out when they hit the wall, they felt a sharp sensation on their backs.
The daggers pierced their flesh as they dug deeper and deeper. But before they could hit any vitals, the duo kicked the walls and moved along with the thrust to reduce the damage.
