Chapter 4
THE KING WATER’S KILLING
ZARYA’S POV
“What a lucky day.”
I stepped one, walking at my back when the three men, holding their swords, blocked our way to the Elemental Kingdom. They seemed to be werewolves from the East, the opponents of the kingdom.
“It’s King Water.” The man at the left smirked. He tilted his head and peeked at me. “And an unknown girl.”
I thought that Hali was commanding me to run, but his wolf remained standing without fear. He was gazing at them with braveness instead.
“If you want to live long…step aside.” That was not a threat, but for me, it sounded like that. King Water would never be a king if he was not possessing authority.
They laughed together. All I could hear was the same happiness when the Black Wolves murdered my family.
King Water looked back on me. I heard his thoughts saying, “Hide behind the tree.”
I followed his order. I ran towards the tree and peeked on them with just my one eye visible. My lips parted as I observed him.
“I’ll number one to three, If you don’t get lost in my gaze, your blood will mix on the ground.” Again, he was not meant to scare them. He was just giving them a warning. Even if he was not telling it to me, the fear rolled throughout my system.
“One…” They just smirk at him as if his words were just a joke. “Two.” They prepared themselves to shift into a wolf form. “Seriously?” King Water did not wait to finish their shifting, he suddenly jumped so high and scratched the face of the first man he approached.
I winced when the blood dripped on his face. The loud scream of the pain of the wolf echoed to the whole woods. For sure, that would cause a big scar if he was still alive after the encounter.
“I’ll repeat, I didn’t yet say the last number. You have a chance to run.” He stood straight, the gesture of a king who was powerful and well-built muscle was highlighted. I was not wrong when I approached him to seek guidance in my battle for revenge.
“Who do you think you are!” One of the man’s wolves shouted.
“If you knew, you’ll die.” He said that voice in a gentle tone. However, the danger would be emphasized.
I heard that line from King Fire when I was 17 years old. Even if we were living in the city, I was escaping to have a peek at the Elemental Kingdom when I was missing it. I witnessed one night that King Fire was stranded in the battle of Hunters, he told them those words.
Why is my head always thinking about King Fire?
Admittedly, I admired him so much. His hush personality was attracting a woman. Someday, I will know what his name is, like how King Water revealed his name to me.
Going back to the scenery, the opponents did not listen to Hali. They fought back as if they could bring him down. The wolf with a bruise on the face leaped his hind legs like a spring and attacked him. He just dodged at the side, spiked them using his feet, and then used his fang, bit him on the neck. I shut my eyes when the blood dropped on the soil. Whatever his threat was, he was doing it.
“If you’re stubborn, you’ll easily die.” Hali showed them his mouth with sharp teeth and a deadly fang. He growled in the scariest way that made them tremble, but it would never be enough to make them run. Instead, they attacked him simultaneously. One was on his back while striking him with his claws, the second one was on his side attacking him with his fang and the last one was on his front, kicking him.
I was scared that they might defeat him. He just groaned like a beast and threw them all at the same time. They dropped on the floor. The cracklings of dried leaves could be heard.
Hali changed into a human form. I was viewing his broad back and well-formed muscles. Of course, I did not bring my eyes down his butt. He raised his hand, his palm was pointing to the sky. “Didn’t you know that my c0ck is horny? You destroy our supposed session.”
I bit my lips as the shyness spread all over my body. Did he just say that without a filter?
I glanced at the three men, their wolves were obviously scared now. If I were them, I should run before he used the element of Water. It could kill them by drowning. It seemed that King Water did not kill immediately, he was just conferring them with options and then eventually fought when it was necessary.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
I was expecting that the men would go away and plead to him. They attacked him again using their powerless form.
“I’ll kill you!” The one with bruises on the face struck him with his claws. It caused a slanted slash on King Water’s belly, but it suddenly disappeared. He had healing power. My eyes bulged in shock. Hali did not let them hit him again. Therefore, he punched him so hard. The man writhed in pain.
King Water raised up his hand again. “Water,” He whispered.
I was startled when the strong drop of rain dripped from the sky. At first, it was an ordinary liquid. When it was about to approach the enemies, it turned into a sharp thing. It is buried into their bodies. I gasped for air as the scenery of those men became horrible. The sharp form of hard frozen water hit different portions of their bodies. I watched them slowly fall. Like what he said before, their blood would mix on the soil and it did.
My body shook as Hali looked back on me. His sharp eyes became soft when it viewed me.
He shifted again into a wolf form. “Follow me.” He ran away as if he did nothing. I observed the wolves lying. The terror filled my system. They were soaking with their own blood.
Hali, what kind of king are you? If you can kill without hesitation, am I right to chase help from you? Or I’ll be in more danger by your ownership?
