妻子的谎言

"It's you!"

Christian yelled, taking a a massive leap back with his sickle still in his hands as he stared at Sato.

He looked around and noticed the barrier that he had put up was no longer there.

Christian glared at Sato with so much hate that his tone had the same effect, "How did you break my barrier?" He asked.

Sato had his attention on Erza at first but later turned to Christian after hearing the question he laid down.

He grinned, clenching his fist before enveloping it in dark energy, "You wanted a fight don't you? I'm ready when you are".

"What?..."

"Come now, don't look so surprised!, ." Sato uttered, he threw a punch from a distance and the dark energy around his fist went charging at Christian.

Christian abruptly stretched out his hand and a small magic shield showed up in front of him.

The dark energy made a huge crash on the shield, but not enough that anything could happen.

The dark energy disappeared after a while and Christain demateralized the shield with a prideful look in his eyes.

"Look at you, even with all that mana you have stored inside you, you're still so weak." Christian mocked, "I should know better than to expect anything better from the elves.".

"Oh?" Sato voiced out with a grin.

Christian was a bit worried because of the sudden sadistic expression Sato was making, but he didn't let it get to him too much.

"Why you… "

"Why don't we do something simple, how about a duel?" Sato inquired while still having the same grin on his face as he interrupted Christian.

"A Duel?" Christian raised a question.

"Yes, a duel to see who's stronger. What do you say… Christian."

Christian paused for a while, looking at Sato as he tried to think of why Sato would request a duel in the middle of a serious event.

"You and I are going to clash fists regardless, so why to offer up a duel?" Christian stated with doubt in every word he spoke.

Sato raised his sword that he had created with his magic to the front, "If I defeat you in this duel, you reveal to me everything you know about the Fiona Kingdom."

"Fiona…?" Christian muttered before his eyes widened after he came to realize, "What the hell?... How do you know about that?".

"Let's just say, one of your top soldiers was a bit too informative. I know about the plan you had Christian, the plan you had with the Demon lord Jira, even the plan to execute Vlad and recover the destructive eye." Sato responded with no movement whatsoever.

Christian was all the more shocked as Sato took his time to explain. No one in his vicinity came to mind that would tell Sato about his relationship with the Demon lord Jira.

Even more so that he had never told anyone about it, the only person he gave that information to was his attendant, Jessica.

Once this thought crossed Christian's mind, he began laughing his head off, looking to the sky while covering his face with his hand.

Sato watched, but didn't give a reaction, 'The laugh, that indicates… I just hit the jack pot.' He thought to himself.

After a few minutes of laughing, Christain stopped laughing and exchanged it with a death stare straight at Sato.

"I thought you were not going to be a problem as long as I didn't cross paths with you, but now I'm glad I did… you already know way too much!".

Christian yelled and immediately launched himself at Sato with a very powerful swing of his sickle following right after.

Sato blocked the attack with the dark sword in his hand without moving a spot from where he stood.

The force of both weapons grew and imploded the ground beneath them and a small pump in the magical aura around Christian's body.

Smiling, Sato looked to Christian and asked, "Does this mean you accept the Duel then?".

"Don't mock me, you bastard!" Christian yelled, adding more pressure on Sato's sword with the sickle.

He screamed in rage, trying to push Sato's sword down but to his surprise, it didn't move a bit.

'Why won't it move?' Christmas questioned, immediately jumping back to leave some space between him and Sato.

"Erza, can you hang on a little longer, I'll tend to this as fast as I can, okay?" Sato voiced out to Erza, but didn't get a reply.

"Erza?" Sato called out, he looked behind him to see Erza fast asleep on the ground behind him.

A struck shock expression hit Sato as he stared, 'What the fuck, she sleeping?!' He yelled.

Sighing, Sato stretched out his hand and covered her body with a double-layer barrier to shield her from the fight.

Once he was done with that, he switched his attention back to Christian.

As soon as he veered around his head, he met Christian in mid-air right in front of him with a huge blue energy dancing around his hand.

"Don't take your damn eyes off me!!" Christian yelled.

Boooosh!

Christian fired the energy at Sato, with a full force of pressure assisting the immense rush of energy blasting against Sato.

The blue energy kept charging off Christian's hand and covering Sato, so much so that his presence could no longer be seen again.

After a while, Christain landed on the ground, and right in front of him, was a burning ground resembling that of wasteland.

Only Christian's side of the area had green grass on the ground, everywhere else had nothing but dark burnt soil and trees.

Ahh…

Ahaha….

Hahahahahahaha

Christian began laughing, "I did it, I killed him and my sister! Do you hear that Jira!" Christian yelled as he looked at the sky, "She's dead!".

Baam!

He fell to his knees as the fire in front of him reflected in his eyesight, but just as he stared tears rolled down his eyes.

"I… killed her." Christian sobbed, "Release her already dammit, please…".

He placed his hand on the ground while sobbing silently, "I can't keep doing this".

"So you're not doing this out of your own volition, ehhhhhhh? That makes more sense".

Christian immediately raised his head from the ground and jumped back as soon as he heard Sato's voice.

He looked into the fire and saw Sato standing inside with his hand raised up.

All of a sudden, a huge dark mist wooshed out of the fire and swallowed all the fire in the area whole, leaving nothing behind.

"Hey, if you hate something so much that you'd actually cry… then I suggest you rethink your strategy, cause you'd be doing more harm than good… get it."

Sato uttered, standing in front of Erza's sleeping body while only his pants were on and his shirt had been burnt off by the flames.
