Chapter 804: The Battle of Dry City: Withdrawal
At the same time, as Thomas was making up his mind that it was no longer worthwhile to continue fighting in this place, Celeste had just finished her fight.
After a rather violent start by those two, with each actively trying to kill the other, it did not take long for that to change.
But such a thing was expected. After all, as much as Celeste was one level below her ex-husband, she was much stronger than this person because she joined the Black Plain Army.
Consequently, sometime after the start of their fight, this woman was already beating David, repeatedly having evaded this man’s offensive attempts while hitting him in different ways.
But David was not weak!
That is, even though he was beaten for most of the fight, this man was one level above Celeste and was not inferior to her to the point that he had no means to act.
On the opposite, there were ways to fight stronger opponents, something that could buy time for anyone in a situation similar to the one David had faced.
With that and the power of hatred that had driven him, David had held out far more than some of Celeste’s enemies who had underestimated her in the past.
In any case, for that man, beating his ex-wife was simply impossible.
And that was why he had reached the current situation, in which, although alive, his entire body was bruised, with open fractures, bleeding, and screaming like a child.
“Ahhhhhh!” He let out another sad sound as he felt Celeste’s fist breaking some of the bones in his shoulder.
‘Damn it!’
‘I won’t be able to get revenge on this adulteress, and she’ll even kill me!’ He thought in deep disappointment, feeling something almost as bad as having found out he was a cuckold.
“Ahhh!” He shouted once again as suicidal thoughts began to race through his mind.
“Tsk!”
And Celeste could not help but notice the change in Devid’s expression.
“Do you want to sacrifice yourself? If you are going to follow through with these thoughts, I will have no choice but to kill you!”
“Ahhh!”
“Aren’t you already going to do that anyway?” He asked amid his nightmare, barely able to see the woman who was standing right in front of him.
After hearing this, Celeste sighed, feeling that much of her anger had already drained away. “I don’t want to kill you anymore.”
“Believe it if you want, but the part of me that once loved you…”
“Shut up!”
“Do you expect me to listen to this nonsense? A dirty woman like you has no morals to talk about it!” He used what little strength he had to speak firmly, with an undeniably angry tone.
“You’re right, David. I am a dirty woman now, but what can I do?”
“This is how I am now!”
“I like to sleep with men, I like sex, and I’m not even ashamed of solving my needs with my son-in-law!”
“But maybe that’s your fault too!” She angrily said as she held up torn parts of that man’s clothing, “If you weren’t so absent-minded…”
“Tsk!”
“It is easy to place the blame for mistakes coming from your own actions on others!”
He then gritted his teeth until he said his final words. “If you can kill me, then do so because as far as I’m concerned, we’ll both die today!”
“Is that so? What about Brooke?” She asked cautiously.
“What about my daughter? She’s an adult now. She can live without her father…”
“As for her mother, it won’t make any difference if you die here!”
“For her, you are already dead!” He said in satisfaction as he began to prepare for the sacrifice.
“What if I told you that she is in Dry City right now?”
“What?” He felt that information as if he had been punched again by that woman, feeling completely shocked.
“She has fallen into Minos’ hands…”
“Hehe, I believe not only literally…” She said maliciously. “But it won’t be bad. Minos is an amazing lover!”
“His big rod has always driven me crazy, and the way he touches me… Ahh, I feel our daughter will be on cloud nine.”
“We are mother and daughter, after all… It shouldn’t be hard for Minos to please her since he already manages that with me…” She said this in an erotic tone, something this man knew very well.
But hearing such things, David felt even worse than before as he imagined his daughter, vulnerable and unstable, in the hands of an enemy he was now fighting against.
‘No! I can’t allow my sweet daughter to become a slut like her mother!’
‘But…’
‘But what if she’s only teasing me? This woman is the devil and is definitely capable of playing even with Brooke’s future…’
‘What do I do? What do I do now?’
“Damn it!” He shouted in frustration just before receiving a blow to the stomach and collapsing on the spot.
Seeing the result of her provocations, Celeste can’t help but feel relieved.
Before, Celeste wanted to kill and take revenge on this person. But as she fought against him and felt that she should not kill someone she once loved so much, she had slowly changed her mind.
But not only that. Because of Brooke’s visit, Celeste could not help but wonder what would happen to her daughter if father and mother killed each other in a fight!
Celeste had slept with and stolen her daughter’s husband, but that did not mean she had something against Brooke!
No, she did not, and she even loved that young friend of Minos, her only daughter.
But Celeste was a complex woman who had grown up to become the way she was now, capable even of seducing her son-in-law.
Celeste had not seduced Neal because she wanted everything that happened to happen. No, she was merely having fun!
If Brooke’s misfortune witnesses them in the act, Celeste would still be living with David, while Neal would be with her daughter, all living together happily.
Unfortunately, things had developed in a way that she had had to leave her husband and escape with her son-in-law, with whom she had later fallen in love for real.
Life was complicated!
In any case, she loved her daughter and did not want her little girl to have to lose her parents like that.
For all that, this woman had put aside her desire to kill her ex-husband!
‘It seems you are still as easy to manipulate as before, David…’ She thought quietly, smiling, as she watched this person under her feet now.
‘I just hope that neither Minos nor Neal finds out what I said here…’
‘It would be a shame if my lies caused us trouble!’ She smiled, remembering her provocative words.
Celeste had never slept with Minos, but she had heard many things from Mirya, her friend.
And even though she even liked the idea of having sex with that young man, Minos had never given her a chance.
In any case, she would prefer her teasing to remain just between her and her ex-husband so as not to disturb Neal’s peace of mind nor bother young Stuart.
“Sigh…”
‘How’s the battle of Minos?’ Then, after sighing deeply, she turned to observe the scene from which she could sense young Stuart’s presence, curious to know what had happened.
Not only that, she still had energy left, so if it was necessary, she was prepared to join those comrades of theirs in dealing with the enemy.
“Oh?”
However, as she looked over to where Minos was standing, she saw something she had not expected, at least not for now.
‘Are the enemies retreating? Did he manage to kill…’ She wondered but soon changed her mind, right after seeing something.
‘No, King Brown is still alive!’
At that moment, Celeste had seen the surviving enemy specialists retreating alongside Thomas while the thousands of soldiers in that group were running around disorderly.
Meanwhile, the survivors of that group from Dry City were vigorously pursuing or attacking the fugitives.
“Kill everyone you can!”
“Let’s kill as many invaders as possible!”
Shouts of encouragement could be heard over there while a view of a few hundred people chasing thousands was forming.
‘What happened? Why is the enemy fleeing when it has barely lost half of its strength?’ Celeste wondered as she noticed all that, already running to the side where Minos was while carrying her ex-husband on her back.
