BXBX NOVEL Chapter 125 - Injured?
"Hehe, really?" Kadyn looked at the human-like creature at the top of the beast and sneered. "Do you think, just because you are stronger than me, you will be able to crush me whenever you want?"
"So what if I think like that?" Jinn said with a disdainful expression. "You are weak, just like an ant in my eyes so obediently submit to me."
"What if I refuse?" Kadyn peered at him, not showing any hint of apprehension over his face. Jinn narrowed his eyes and a cold expression appeared on his face. "It seems you don\'t realise the situation you are in at the moment. Then let me show you."
He waved his hand and the water of the lake started to float in the air, in just a few blinks it turned into a huge wave, floating in the sky like a waving ghost in the darkness of night. Old Dem and others saw such a scene and turned pale. Mr. Jinn is really capable of doing anything. They thought and a worshipful expression appeared on their faces.
"Are you blind, boy?" Waul shouted at Kadyn. "Mr. Jinn is giving you a chance to serve him, even dying for him would be a blessing for your pitiful life, but you refused. Bow down and Mr. Jinn might forgive you for your rudeness!"
"Yes, how dare you refuse Mr. Jinn\'s kindness!" Refu also commented from the side.
"Really, the newborn calf doesn\'t know the terror of the tiger," Elder Tandu also shook his head. He sighed as if feeling sad for Kadyn.
The huge snake stared at Kadyn with its red beady eyes and hissed, flicking its thin poisonous tongue towards him, daring Kadyn to speak nonsense.
Kadyn didn\'t pay anything to those minor characters and looked at the colossal wave behind the blue creature at the top of the beast. Then he folded his hands in front of his chest, curling his lips in disdain. "I would also like to see how powerful this water wave really is. Come come, hit me."
"Fuck!" almost everyone at the scene cursed out loud when they heard his provocative tone. Because if Jinn attacked with that huge wave, not only Kadyn, even they would be submerged into the water. They might even lose their lives due to that attack. How could they remain calm in this kind of situation?
Jinn looked at Kadyn and chuckled. "Well, I wanted to wait for some time to devour your soul. Who would have thought that you were so eager to die." He glared at Kadyn as he said. "I will make you beg for mercy in a moment. All that arrogance on your face needs instant treatment, after all."
As everyone thought that the wave of water would come and devour them — the water calmed down, splashing into the lake. The Jinn, however, wasn\'t standing at the head of the beast anymore, but in the air. Blue wings had been spreading behind his back, as he stared down at Kadyn like a king looking down at his subordinate.
Then he spread his hand towards Kadyn and an illusory hand — that looked as if it was made of water — stretched towards Kadyn, like a claw of a devil in someone\'s nightmare.
"What the…" Kadyn saw it and tried to dodge the attack. However, he realised that he could not move. He stared at the incoming attack and shook his head with a helpless smile. "It looks like I still need to ask for help," he muttered.
As soon as he thought about it, the door appeared from behind and a shadow dashed out from within, colliding head-on with the incoming attack. The illusory hand was shattered, scattering into millions of water particles, in an instant, while the Jinn in the air was pushed hundreds of meters away. The blood dripped out from his mouth and appeared at the corner of his lips. However before anyone could see it, he licked it with his tongue.
"Who are you?" after stabilizing himself, Jinn looked at the new figure standing beside Kadyn and asked furiously. "How dare you try to foil my business?! Do you know the consequences?!"
Cecilia didn\'t even spare a glance at the shouting Jinn. She turned towards Kadyn and asked with a concerned tone. "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
"Oh my, it feels good when a beauty is worrying about you, doesn\'t it?" Kadyn smirked as soon as she asked and winked at her.
"Wh-what nonsense are you talking about?" Cecilia turned red hearing his teasing words and looked away due to embarrassment. Her heart started to beat faster. It was the first time someone said those words to her. Even though she was powerful, she was still a young girl. Kadyn saw her reaction and didn\'t push his luck, it wouldn\'t be good if a misunderstanding appeared later in between them.
"How dare you ignore me, bitch?!" Jinn shouted and sharp icicles started to form all around him. He glared at the two of them and said. "Die!"
"Hmph, a petty trick, and you still want to kill me with that!" Cecilia snorted, her face was filled with disdain when she spoke those words. She waved her hand and all around her hundreds of dark, sharp spears formed, then she pointed towards those incoming icicles and spears dashed towards them.
When the two spells met with each other a huge trimmer filled the entire area. Roclus and others were completely pale, trembling in terror, and were trying to hide behind the boulder, to preserve their pathetic lives. They never thought that the boy they took with them had such a strong companion. Furthermore, they had no idea where she had come from. Was she always with them? A simple thought was enough to make them shiver and turn their hearts cold.
As the dirt settled, the scene became clear. Cecilia was still standing beside Kadyn, her hands were on her round beautiful butt, looking into the distance with a slight smile — while Jinn was nowhere to be seen in the sky when Kadyn searched, he found him, lying on the ground. He seemed miserable, covered in dirt, clothes tattered, and coughing blood nonstop.
"Huh?" Kadyn was surprised when he saw him in that kind of situation because he didn\'t think that attack was enough to deal with him. He was after all Rank 2 mage. How could he be defeated so easily? No matter how impressive Cecilia was, he would never believe that she could defeat Rank 2 mage just like that.
Cecilia saw his surprised expression and explained. "It\'s not as impressive as you think. I could get an upper hand because he was already injured. Furthermore, his injuries aren\'t physical, but his soul was injured by someone. However, to defeat this guy would take more than just that attack. We still have a lot of work to do."
"Injured?" Kadyn looked at Jinn who had already stood and seemed to understand something. "So that\'s why he needed other people. He was devouring their souls to heal himself all this time."
"Exactly," Cecilia nodded. "Due to his injuries, or maybe, due to the fear of his enemies he dared not to leave this place. Therefore he conned these villagers to send him other people from time to time. Though the speed of his recovery would be slow with such a method, it was safe."
"How dare you?!" Jinn shouted, as soon as he calmed. "How dare you injure me?!"
As he shouted he looked at the Roclus and his group who were not too far away from him and extended his hand towards them. Once more the same illusory claw formed and went towards them.
"No good," Kadyn said, Cecilia was also caught unprepared, and couldn\'t react in time. Jinn grabbed Roclus and Elder Tandu and others and crushed their heads into a bloody pulp. They couldn\'t even beg or scream for mercy, dying a miserable death. Jinn didn\'t waste his time and sucked their souls into his body.
He looked at Kadyn and Cecilia with his red eyes and said. "Though it is not enough to heal me, it is enough to fuel me for a time being. Enough to slaughter you! You dare to interfere in my matter. Now you have to pay for that!"
"Humph, even if you were in your top condition, you would not be able to kill me, much less now," Cecilia said and stood in front of Kadyn. ``It is you, who will pay the price for doing so much evil, devouring the souls of innocents."
"We will see," he sneered and attacked her together with the giant snake. Kadyn didn\'t waste any more time and summoned others as well. Barret and Hot Rod and Khrom appeared beside him while Elora also appeared at his side. The group surrounded the beast and Jinn and the heated battle began.
Kadyn looked at his sister and smiled. "Stay with me, strike at the right time, alright?"
