Chapter 320- The Great Akora River (Part 17)

"Sergi!" Deka stepped forward as she unleashed her aura and pulled her sword out. The rage in her eyes flared up to an incomprehensible degree. Seeing him stab one of their comrades to death had struck her so hard that she took a few seconds to react. But, when she did, she completely lost it.

This was the needle that broke the camel's back, no, it didn't just break it... It shattered it. Charging forward, she slashed with her weapon at her friend.

*CLING*

The latter stepped back and deflected her attack with both hands. The two stared at one another, one filled with endless rage and the other with endless insanity. There was not a single shred of humanity left in Sergi's eyes.

"I WILL KILL YOU!" She clenched her teeth. Then, she unleashed a rain of attacks on him, all coming from her heart. She was holding back the urge to cry with all her power. She didn't understand what happened or why her friend did that.

She couldn't understand anything at all, but all she could think of at that moment was to make it stop. It didn't matter what it was, Deka simply wanted it to stop. It was a mental and physical torture.

"DIE!!!"

*CLING*

Swinging her sword, she aimed it at Sergi, only for it to be deflected. That was when the man finally spoke.

"Hahahaha, you have always been a very emotional person, Deka. Even when we were still novice trainees, you were always the one who cried the most for people's deaths. That made you a very weak person. It always made me laugh how you wanted to be a leader one day. Leaders don't cry for losing a member of their team." Sergi said coldly with a wicked smile on his face full of scorn.

His words were akin to blades cutting through Deka's heart as she continued swinging her sword and fighting him with all her might.

"Keep fighting, and keep trying... You will never see yourself become a leader."

It was a fleeting moment, but it was enough for her to realize one very important thing. It was something that she didn't notice till now and it was perhaps the answer to it all. However, by then, it was far too late. So, the woman closed her eyes.

*BANG*

But, out of nowhere, she heard quick steps pass beside her as a loud bang echoed in her ears. Opening her eyes, all she saw was someone's silhouette as they landed in front of her.

It took Deka a second to understand who it was. But, when she did, a fleeting moment of hope passed through her eyes.

"Arthur..."

"You really let this scum threaten you, Deka? He is nothing." Arthur said coldly. "Well, I think it's time to get this over with. He doesn't deserve being left alive another second."

After saying that, the boy looked up and almost 30 meters away, Sergi slammed into the wooden wall, breaking large chunks of it. The hit was so strong, he couldn't even feel his face for a moment.

"AGH..." Touching his chest, the man's face contorted with pain. But, he still glared at Arthur.

"I have warned you not to do it. I have given you warnings left and right and you don't seem like you want to actually take my advice. Oh well."

*Crack*

Tilting his neck, Arthur slowly pulled his sword out. "Let's see you try being all-powerful and mighty against me."

All the mercenaries, including Deka, looked at Arthur with varying degrees of shock. The boy had appeared out of nowhere and sent Sergi flying into the air like a ragdoll with a simple punch. The level of power in that punch alone was horrifying.

Deka tried to speak, to say anything, but feeling the immense pressure emanating from Arthur, she gave up. If there was one person who could do the job, it was him... She was truly not good enough.
