Chapter 212: Don't mess with me (2)

3rd person view

He opened his eyes again, but this time he is on some sort of road with people in funny costumes, one has hair and white cap somehow merged and very oddly muscular. A vehicle of some sorts then backed onto him and crushed him to death.

| Just how many references are you going to use to kill him?! |

As the narrator, it's my honor and duty to tell you that it's a JoJo reference.

| No dinner for you today |

Worth it.

He was then held up by this skeleton in a large robe with glowing red eyes. He screamed in despair as he literally gets the life sucked out of him.

He experienced so many more different form of deaths, sometimes he would try to escape from it, but at the last moment, he would be pulled back and die by that form of death anyway.

"You enjoying it so far?" Perseus laughed as they are now both in some sort of black void.

Arthur rushed to him and tried to punch him, but his punch just goes through Perseus body. Perseus retaliated and punch Arthur in the face. Noe of Arthur's attack hit, but Perseus hit all the marks as Arthur was helpless against him.

"I upped your sensory to pain" Perseus laughed "All my hits will hurt so many times more than normal."

Perseus then kicked his downstairs as pain jolted through Arthur's body. Perseus then approached him and held him up by his hair.

"My imagination is endless Arthur, and time in fluid here. I'll make you experience a lot of deaths before this whole thing runs out" Perseus glared at him "And want to know why I named my sword 'Dream Eater'? The more people I kill in the void, the stronger I get. And the more stronger they are, the better. I feed on my opponents Arthur...imagine how strong I would become after this"

Perseus then laughed at his misery before cutting his head off. This time, he opened his eyes again to see himself facing off against Perseus in the cavern and it is right before Perseus casted 'void of eternal nightmares'.

Perseus is also not in his demon form and the fear he felt earlier started to disappear.

< I can't believe I fell for it > Arthur then patted his own body

"What the fuck are you doing?!" Perseus shouted

"Aghhh" Arthur screamed as he charged against Perseus, he easily overpowered Perseus with his magic.

Perseus tried to fight back wit a lot of spells and his sword managed to cut everything down, but he still received injuries from Arthur faster than he could heal.

"Take that!" Arthur shouted as he kicked Perseus Lifeless body "I fell for it! I can't believe that I fell for it! You act so high and mighty but you're now dead! I can't believe I was scared of you"

He also suffered serious injuries, but due to his adrenaline from the victory make him ignore the pain.

"Really?" A voice said as a black sword went through his chest from the back "You were scared?"

Perseus laughed as he sees Arthur's expression of despair.

"I wasn't lying when I say that I get stronger when I kill people in here" Perseus said "I'm different from the others, my equipments have the ability to make me evolve, and I killed a god in here once"

"How?...Why are you only number 13?" he asked in a whisper

"I'm the protagonist, Arthur. I don't always show my powers"

The scene changed again as he experience drowning, trampled by animals, torture, caught in an explosion, chased by a pack of wolves...etc. There is only so much his mind could take before he break down as he can't escape from any of them.

Arthur cried as he realized he was in a hopeless situation. He wanted for all of it to end.

"You took one of Eliza's arm and killed her mother. You could have come for me directly, but no...you chose to go after someone I care about. I will kill you here, take your powers and destroy your own organization with it."

"You are sick" Arthur replied

"I know that more than you Arthur. I am very dangerous, much more dangerous than you can imagine" Perseus replied as his eyes glowed in the darkness "I am the most dangerous being in the world, you were fucked the moment you s=choose to go against me. When facing your fears, everyone would be weaker, I'm glad to know that I've now become one of them"

"This last death will really kill you, Arthur. Be honored that you manage to make me use up all my mana despite having a larger mana capacity than most, it means that you're strong."

"Just end me...please" he begged

I used up all the mana stored up in my rings and shoot out a beam of mana erasing him once and for all. And thanks to the void, the attack did not destroy everything in the path of the attack and only damaged the cavern.

There is no trace of him left as the void shrunk and my body started to turn normal again.

-You've evolved into the light blue stage, very fast for someone with a large mana capacity like you- Dabria said

-I fight a lot, so it helped me boost my speed. I have no mana left and due to using the demon form, my sword, my eyes and basically my full power, I'm going to pass out any second now-

-Well they're almost here, you can sleep and we'll watch over you-

-How long do you think I'll be asleep for this time? 3 days?-

-A week at least- Dabria responded

-Damn it, if I should have sensed him if he was in the kingdom, if I had- -

-Don't do that Grace- Dabria scolded me -It won't do you any good and you know it-

I am a bit stunned that she used my old name, she never done that before, not even my bonds. But everything got dark as I passed out.

Everyone arrived on the scene to see Perseus on the floor passed out.

"Dad!" the 2 children shouted and rushed to him

-Couldn't have hurt to give him a lap pillow in your mortal form instead of making him sleep on rocks- Siege joked

-Yeah, he is your future husband- Ace added

-That's rare, you don't usually joke around Siege- Dabria responded

"He's alright, just unconscious" Diana commented as she checked on him "But he's out cold, and from what you know who says, he's going to be out for a week at least"

< That mana just now...the amount of it that got released is huge > Emma thought

And again this time, I'm in a black void. It usually means that someone has summoned me, and by someone. The gods.

But this time something is different, the voice talking to me sounds like several voice talking at once.

"I'll disguise my voice, don't try to figure out who I am" it says "I am the one who sent your children to you."

"Well when will you send them back?"

"Aren't you going to ask why?...Well I did it for entertainment. And as for when... figure out the one who is alive, Grace Leven."

"What the fuck are you talking about?"

"One of your siblings, they're alive. Tell me their name and when you do, I'll send your children back. You can't just pick a name randomly either, you need to back it up with conviction and evidence"

"Are you my enemy?"

"I can be whatever you want, hahahahha"

"What do you mean that they're alive? I witnessed their death!"

"Trust me if you want to send your children back properly" the voice responded "One of your siblings is alive, I'll visit your dreams once per 2 weeks to hear your possible answer"
