Betrayal and Defeat

"It did not have to be this way, Julius. This path is of your choosing. I must now handle this situation myself," Harald said.

"Killing me... won't bring... you that throne. Pushing that sword inside me... will never take my soul. I will not give up so easily," Julius said. As he felt the longsword piercing his back and chest, he tried to break free from Harald, but it would not work.

The sword of Lancelot was enough to penetrate the mind and body of the demon hunter, and it made Julius lose a lot of blood and strength. Harald pushes the sword deeper into Julius's body; the earl shows no mercy to the man who grew up beside him.
