King of succubus

Chapter 413  Askald's clones.

I once heard my lord talk about the six heads of order; few people he remembers after the battle since he killed most of his opponents or forgot them, saying they were not entertaining.

Those he spared were either in the category of ants or in the category of talented beings but who had not developed their powers enough to entertain him. At that time, the six founding members of the order were categorized in his second category.

...Pinky is a talented girl and gifted in maguscarft.

Ring is a warm-blooded woman who fights in perfect harmony with her army of contracted beasts. The Lord said that facing her was like confronting an entire army made up of the transcendents.

Middle is a fierce man endowed with extraordinary strength! According to my lord, his body of ancient titans would even withstand most of the attacks of the transcendents.

As for this vicious guy, Index, he said he could control mind people with his words. Index is like a vicious and calculating Imp; he never fights until he is sure to win.

And Thumb is like all these four united in one girl. She's the only one my lord had described as talented, gifted with the hand-to-hand battle but also in magic. Unlike Middle, which specializes in physical attacks, or Index, which specializes in magic, she’s versatile.

As for Palm, the order's head never appeared before him. Therefore, lord assumed that this entity was the hawk in the shade, watching for her prey or abandoned if she judged them too powerful for her. Her identity is unknown, but the lord was convinced she was a woman. And since it is his judgment, it can only be the truth; lord’s never wrong.

Although Darka could not move and showed a blank expression, he always managed to recall one of the few words of his lord.

Adinas, obsessed with his pride and confidence, did not pay enough attention to Darka to see that he was always aware of his environment.

But the next moment, Adinas frowns when he notices an energy that does not belong to Reha in the shadow of the latter.

Instantly, three golden daggers appeared between his fingers, and he threw them directly under Reha's feet.

'Did I have a bad vision?' He questions himself when he sees that nothing is happening.

But this assumption was soon denied when he saw two blood-red eyes observe him in Reha's shadow.

-Caw-Caw-Caw-Caw!!

At the same time, Darka's body turned into dozens of ravens flying aimlessly over them.

Seeing the black ravens in the night sky, Adinas instinctively looks at Reha!

But to his great amazement, Darka's silhouette was standing behind her like a statue with his blood-red eyes that did not even blink.

Before Adinas could say anything, Darka's voice rang in his ear. "It took me longer to break your link, but...

He stops momentarily to store his giant sword in his shadow and equip himself with a dagger that looks like Luna’s, except that, unlike hers, he has only one black dagger in his hand.

Black lightning crackled around his dagger, which looked more like a saber than a dagger because of its size of one meter!

"...But since it has nothing to do with you anymore, it's time to end this game that lasted too long." He said with a slightly cynical smile on his lips.

At the same time, Reha, unconscious, collapses.

But the faithful knight cushions her fall before she reaches the ground.

At the same time, Darka’s shadow rises behind him like a black coat that envelops Reha and disappears with her.

"Good, good; now that the mission is a success, bring yourselves you both!" Darka continues with his flat voice.

Simultaneously, Askald's silhouette vanished and appeared alongside Adinas after receiving the latter's orders.

"Since when?" Adinas looks at Darka with cold eyes.

"I don't have time to explain myself; all you need to know is that I had taken precautions from the beginning. You're too arrogant to believe that I'm a knight faithful to the principles of chivalry." He explains while removing his heavy armor that made the earth tremble slightly under their feet because of their doubtful weight.

Adinas had incredulous eyes when he saw this.

At that moment, he had difficulty guessing the weights of Darka's armor.

After being wholly stripped of his armor, Darka's toned and muscular body threatened to tear the body sleeve he was wearing.

For once he had fully exposed his face, he turned out to be a handsome guy with everything to confuse him to Alvine, except his short curly black hair, the scar he had on his left cheek that testified to the fierce battles he had fought, and finally, his skin that was slightly dark, but not as dark as Stella’s who is a black Elf.

He then continued doing some stretching as if he felt comfortable after getting rid of the weights he was constantly carrying.

"A knight will become everyone's laughing stock if he fights honestly with those who don't follow the rules." While retorting these words, his abysmal black aura alone made the island tremble as if facing a natural cataclysm.

Adonis's eyes were still as calm as usual after seeing this.

"Before starting hostilities, I would like to know how you manage to keep your--

"It will be an insult to monarch Zakiel if he learns that his captain has succumbed to the spiritual powers of someone other than him and the lord." Darka interrupts him by guessing his question.

A wave of rage through Adonis's pupils when hearing Darka's arrogant response, But he immediately regained his calm and began to laugh like crazy.

After about five seconds, he stops laughing, and his expression has resumed its macabre look. "I now understand. A knight who fights with a dagger, moreover, is also able to master some spiritual skill. HAHAHA...! You're the funniest knight I have ever seen before."

"You are losing your mind, Sir Adonis, alias Index; I will end your wanderings’ mind by sending you to hell," Darka replied.

He looked like someone who was possessed by another spirit. Not only did he speak more than usual, but he displayed the same sneaky smile and arrogance as Shadow, a behavior never seen Adonis's eyes have become dark, and his anger rises red when he hears Darka's insults. "I changed my mind; kill this bastard!" He before with him.

Adonis's eyes have become dark, and his anger rises red when he hears Darka's insults. "I changed my mind; kill this bastard!" He orders Askald.

Immediately, the latter's body turns into a mirage and his black spear target Darka's throat!

Darka raises his right hand and grabs Askald's spear with a bare hand!

His reaction speed exceeded ten times that he had shown, and as if it were not worrying enough, his strength also seemed to be multiplied, surpassing Askald's clone!

At the same time, when he looked into Askald's eyes, the latter momentarily froze!

Aware that his subterfuge had had the expected effect against his target, Darka’s dagger whistles toward Askald's throat and decapitates him instantly!

"Impossible! Absolutely IMPOSSIBLE!" The agitation became perceptible in Adonis's eyes when he saw Darka get rid of his puppet with as much ease.

"My dear, You still didn't intend to face me with a clone. Am I wrong?" He asks with ridiculous eyes.

But Adonis didn't disappoint him. The latter took a deep breath to comply with his cold blood.

When he opened his eyes, Darka's smile went crazy when he guessed that Askald still had some in his arsenal.

As he had assumed, thousands of small portals appeared behind him, giving him the appearance of the god of space because of the golden and blinding light that emanated from the portals.

At the same time, Darka's shadow wobbles under his feet and grows like a black curtain that hides hell on the other side!

"With us, the number of enemies does not represent a disadvantage." He whispered while also summoning thousands of subordinates from the original planet.

Meanwhile, the warriors who had crossed the portals of Adonis were all the clones of Askald.

'So, this guy pretended not to know, huh? All this to make his game more convincing.' Darka becomes even angrier when he understands Adonis's previous intentions.

But just before he started the war, he noticed Adonis retreating by passing through one of his portals.

Darka's expression became crumpled when he saw Adonis flee without pride.

The worst was to see him with a triumphant smile as if he had won the battle against him.

'This infamous being! I made a terrible mistake; I should have foreseen his escape!' His eyes became black anchored as he shouted these words with his mind with heart afflicted by an unbearable pain that had almost made him spit blood.

At the same time, Alvinos' squad appeared behind him, taking his shadow as a path.

"Cap. Darka, we cleaned up as you ordered us." Alvinos speaks while watching the thousands of Askald's look-alikes who are retreating.

He then focuses on Darka, who has mad eyes.

"Something is wrong?" He asks confusedly.

"...Sigh, just wait for me a little, I'll capture one of these clones, and I'll come back."

When Alvinos heard his last word, he realized that Darka was no longer with him.

'...He is still impressive when he takes off his armor.' As soon as he finished murmuring these words, Darka reappeared at the place where he stood a second ago.

"These clones..." Alvinos frowns as his eyes switch between one of the clones that Darka had just captured and the others that withdrew without worrying about the fate of the clone that Darka had just captured.

"They aren't fakes; they are indeed clones belonging to the monarch Askald," Darka responds nonchalantly by sending the clone he had just captured in his shadow.

Alvinos always had skeptical eyes. "Are they supposed to be so weak?"

"...Yes, they are clones, but not quite," Darka responds nonchalantly by focusing on the others as if he were waiting for them all to leave before continuing to the next step.

But seeing Alvinos confused, he didn't explain with words but deeds.

He manifests his clone before him and orders the latter to display another clone.

Alvinos' eyes widen when he sees this.

"I understand now. They are weak because they all come from a clone who is not the real monarch?"

"Yes, that's kind of it." Darka nods.

After a minute, all Askald's clones withdrew, leaving only Darka and his men on the island.

"You will stand guard, warn me in case of attack; I will bring the news back to my lord. Let's hope we can find the exact position of Master Askald with the clone I captured."

Darka's words made Alvinos's face crumple.

"Are you sure it's a good idea? Our enemies can also find our location thanks to this clone."

"...These are insignificant details. As long as the first monarch, Lady Fy, is on the planet, there is no chance that this will happen." After saying these last words, he vanished before Alvinos, leaving only the latter and the squad he had brought to the start on the Island.
