Pablo the North Emperor part 2

[coment and give me power stones!!]

[Asura Royal Palace]

It was a cold night in the Asura refugee camp. For several months, hundreds of survivors from the city had arrived in what was once the capital of the world only to find a desolate and devastating landscape.

Even after almost seven months following the tragedy known as "The Mana Disaster," life in the capital has not been able to restore even a shred of its former glory.

Where once stood imposing buildings and the king's castle was now a barren area devastated by tragedy.

Hundreds of thousands of survivors had stayed in the surrounding area, hoping to return to their normal lives.

The land that had once been the noble district, a symbol of the city's power, was now merely an area with hundreds of sleeping tents mixed with nobles and villagers.

Due to the sudden infertility of the land, many nobles and landowners lost all their wealth and became simple villagers.

Many other nobles died, and many more are still missing, leaving the most powerful noble houses completely adrift.

Fortunately for many, the king, his son, Prince Grabel Anemoi Asura, and Minister Darius Silva Ganius had survived the tragedy, with the latter simply being teleported to an area north of Asura.

The king and his son were teleported directly to southern Fittoa and took longer to return, but during that time, Darius had begun search and rescue efforts for Asuran citizens throughout the kingdom and neighboring nations. Many had been located, both alive and dead, while others remained missing.

What had once been mansions that covered entire city blocks were now simple wooden cabins hastily built for the nobles. The building that was receiving the most attention was the one where the king, his son, and Minister Darius resided. It was now a three-story house of considerable size, but not excessively so, and it was always guarded by soldiers and bodyguards. Reida Reia was the most prominent of all the others due to her status as a Water God, and she was hired by Darius himself for their protection.

Darius and the royal family always spent their time hiding in that three-story house while they investigated and tried to figure out what to do about the dangerous situation.

This was what the townspeople thought, but it couldn't be further from the truth. Behind all of this, Darius spent day and night tirelessly trying to pull his strings to discover the whereabouts of young Paul Notos Greyrat, legitimate heir to the Notos house, who had been a thorn in Darius's side for as long as he could remember. Always thwarting Hilda Zephyrus Greyrat's kidnapping plans, a woman Darius had always dreamed of but now didn't even know if she was still alive due to the tragedy.

"Haaa...how disappointing," Darius muttered as he took a sip of wine and looked up at the starry sky.

Today, like every day, Darius had searched tirelessly for any clue as to Paul's whereabouts, and as always, to no avail, which had begun to frustrate him greatly.

"You think you can hide forever, huh? You damn brat?!"

(Sob)

"What do you think, young Eliana? Where do you think Paul could be?" Darius muttered with a disgusting smile as he looked at the girl tied up in his bed.

Even after the tragedy in the capital, Darius hadn't let go of his disgusting fetishes. Now, with the townspeople more vulnerable than ever, he could take as many girls as he wanted and not have to worry about the authorities or grieving parents.

"Huuu...let me go. I promise I won't tell anyone, sir." The girl's sobs echoed throughout the room as she tried to escape Darius's lust-filled gaze.

"I'm sorry, little one... but I paid your parents two gold coins for this, and since we're so short on money, I won't waste an inch of your body."

Darius said with dark lust as he made himself comfortable on the bed and began to touch the poor girl's buttocks, who could only scream in fear, which only excited Darius more.

But after a few minutes, and when Darius was ready for penetration...

(Tock!!, tock!!, tock!!)

"Lord Darius!! A letter has arrived directly from Millis!!!" The voice of one of the guards echoed from outside the room.

Darius clicked his tongue while fondling the poor girl's buttocks with his micro penis.

"If it's so important, leave it on my desk and I'll read it tomorrow! Now leave me alone! I'm on very important business!" Darius shouted with a mocking smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, sir... but the sender "It's Paul Notos Greyrat," the guard's voice sounded from outside like a murmur.

"W-what?!, Paul Notos Greyrat?!" Darius's voice came out as if death itself was at his side.

The horrible smile faded from his face and his micro penis lost its erection, much to the small relief of the poor girl whose fate was already sealed.

Darius didn't say another word and left his room snatching the letter from the guard's hands without saying anything.

Sent by: Paul Notos Greyrat-

-Recipient: Valentina Notos Greyrat-

-Delivery location: Kingdom of Asura, Capital Ars-

"Mother, Philemon, it's me Paul, I'm alive, I hope you are too, I'm currently in the city of Tinaven two days from the capital Millis, I don't know where you were teleported to, but I'm here, at first I was teleported in the middle of the great forest and the Dedoldia gave me lodging for almost four months for which I am indebted to them, I write this at the end of the 11th month of the year K400, my plan to return is to do adventurer jobs to earn money and thus be able to travel from city to city, I hope you are really okay, you don't know how much I miss you and I hope that after all this shit we could all live as a family, if we can't be nobles again then with what I save money I will use it to buy a house,until then see you, with love yours "son"

Darius stared at the letter with an unreadable expression for several minutes, only the candlelight illuminating his office.

"That fucking bastard kid..." Darius muttered angrily as he crumpled the letter and threw it into the fire.

Hitogami had already warned him that Paul was still alive and in Millis, but he didn't think he would hear from him so soon.

"Given the date the letter was written, it must have been out almost seven months ago... shit!!" Darius shouted as he threw his desk with all his might.

"Who does that fucking bastard think he is?! He thinks he can just return to Ars like nothing happened?!" Darius started yelling as he ran around his office, destroying everything in his path

"Ah, but two can play... you have no idea who you're messing with, you shitty kid," Darius muttered with a snort.

After such "arduous" physical activity, Darius's stamina was completely depleted, so he slumped back into his chair with a thud while scratching his bald head.

"If the child didn't have any complications on his trip, then he must be near the conflict zone...tch"

With a loud click of his tongue, Darius stood up from his chair, arranged his desk, took out a piece of paper and pen and began to write a letter.

"A bounty on his head...yes, that's what I must do" Darius's voice came out with a mocking smile at the end, as if the best idea in the world had occurred to him.

Due to the current situation of the Kingdom, trade relations and connections with other countries were weakening significantly, there had even been talk several times of changing the location of the capital to another large city, so Darius's influence had been greatly reduced.

"The reward?...100 Asuran gold coins" was what Darius wrote in the letter, not even caring that it was more than 30% of the funds raised since the tragedy.

But for Darius none of that mattered, he was willing to give all that and more simply so that Paul Notos Greyrat would die, a person that Hitogami himself warned him to be careful of.

Darius wasn't stupid enough to relax in front of him.

When he wrote the last paragraphs of the letter, he sealed it with the coat of arms of the kingdom itself.

"Cecilio!!" Darius screamed at the top of his lungs.

Immediately the footsteps of a person running were heard and the office door slammed open, revealing a young guard of no less than 30 years of age with sweat on his forehead.

"Go to the new adventurer's guild and leave this letter there immediately," Darius said in an indifferent voice as he placed the letter on his desk.

"Y-yes sir! Right away sir!!" Cecilio said with a bow and quickly left the place.

"Let's see what you got, damn kid..." Darius muttered as he got up from his chair and started walking towards his room.

Inside the girl was still tied up and when she looked at Darius she began to struggle with all her strength trying to escape.

"Hehe...don't worry little one, I'll be gentle" Darius said as he pulled down his pants revealing his 3-centimeter erection covered by a slice of fat.

"Now be a good girl...and cry a lot." Darius's lust-filled voice reached the girl's ears, who could only cry while she was mercilessly raped.

...

[Paul Pov]

(claaaank!!)

Our swords collided heavily and an intense metallic sound ran through the forest, the impact sent shock waves throughout my body and my feet landed on the ground.

"nngh!!" I groaned slightly due to the effort, my strength is still not enough!!

"What's wrong Paul? Are you tired yet? After casting all those powerful spells I'm even surprised you're still standing," Pablo asked as he began to walk lightly and my strength waned.

"Heh! I guess I got it right, right? After all, you still have a long way to go, kid. If our confrontation had been in another two or three years, things would surely be different."

Pablo's words were mocking but there was a hint of mockery on his face.

"Now then, it's time to finish you-agh!!" Before Pablo could make another move, I made sure to trap his feet with earth magic due to our proximity.

"nngh!!" Before he could get away, I launched a volley of stone bullets at him and trapped him in place with a ground heel.

"Haa!!" Pablo let out a guttural scream as he punched at the stone bullets, avoiding splitting them in half because all the ones thrown at him were hollow stone bullets, and he had noticed...

"This isn't enough! Yeagh!!" But besides dodging the stone bullets, the earth hedgehog's spears were surrounding him and he couldn't dodge everything.

Now an earthen spear had embedded itself deeply into his right thigh and a stone bullet grazed his left shoulder.

The stone pillar was 80% of the desired height! If everything went wrong then that would be my trump card.

But the scene in front of me made me relax slightly...

There was Pablo, surrounded by hundreds of stone spears, if he dodged a stone bullet he would inevitably get stuck in a spear and if he dodged a spear then a bullet would hit him.

No matter what he did, he would get hurt and he would have already realized this.

"yeaaagh!!, don't underestimate me, damn kid!!, I'll make that mocking smile be wiped off your face!!!" Pablo shouted and with his worn sword he began to try to break the spears.

But he had already anticipated this, he was able to break some, but his sword began to fracture to his surprise so he quickly abandoned this strategy.

"A magic instrument, huh? Looks like you were taken!" I mocked as I threw more stone bullets at him.

"You...fucking idiot!!!" The man screamed in despair and threw his sword at me at a terrifying speed.

"!!!" I barely managed to dodge the sword that embedded itself into a tree.

Serious mistake...

He thrust the sword into his hand, pulling it out of the tree and throwing it back at Pablo, as if by telekinesis.

"huh?!!, neeagh!!!" Pablo could barely react as he threw himself to the rigth.

But that turned out to be even worse, since due to the stone spears he got stuck in place and I could barely dodge the trajectory of the sword which sliced his shoulder almost completely leaving his left arm completely unusable.

"huh...uug..." Pablo's moans of pain reached my ears while watching him cautiously.

He had embedded two stone spears in his legs and one in his arm, while he had passed between two spears, leaving his head trapped and unable to move.

He was immobilized in my trap...

My stone pillar was at 90% of the desired height, but I still had a bad feeling about it so I kept letting it rise.

"Heh, you've defeated me, haven't you? You should be ashamed of yourself!! If you fought like a man instead of a coward who resorts to magic, our places would be reversed!!" Pablo shouted indignantly.

I just stared at him in a fighting stance.

"Heh! What's going on?! Am I that scary?! You've already defeated me, brat! Go on... kill me!!" Pablo shouted angrily as he tried to get away.

But I felt a strange sensation behind me, a chill ran down my spine and a smile formed on Pablo's face

"nngh!!" Following my instincts I immediately ducked and a dagger grazed the tips of my hair and crashed into a nearby tree.

"Hah! I thought you weren't going to dodge them!!, fuuuu...you look fucking great Peikak!!" Pablo shouted with obvious relief on his face and I instinctively looked behind me.

There was Peikak, his right arm shattered and he was holding Donald's sword since I had broken his.

His position was slightly weaker than before due to the electric shock I threw at him, but he was still very powerful.

"Hmm!! Her image disappeared from my sight in an instant and the stone spears were completely destroyed.

Instinctively I looked behind me and Pablo was writhing on the floor in pain.

"Peikak!! You're a fucking bastard! Do you want to kill me?!" Pablo shouted angrily and then sat down on the ground.

"Good! Freeze him so we can take him back!" Mauricio's voice came from behind me at the worst possible moment, and I glared at him.

He only had one guard behind him and he had a staff pointed at me.

"And what if it's better not? This damn bastard killed many of us and left me without an arm!! I don't care about the reward anymore!! " Pablo shouted as he retrieved his sword from the ground.

Mauricio's face contorted with anger and his face paled.

"Have you lost your minds?! If you don't do it, I won't pay you and-"

Mauricio's voice was interrupted by a whoosh of air and the next moment his head flew off his body.

"Who was it?!" I looked in front of me and Pablo was no longer there, so I looked back behind me and the body of the last guard had already been torn into pieces.

My stone pillar is at its maximum height!!

With a smooth movement of my hand, I stopped applying mana to the earth pillar and it began to fall to the ground. It was now so high that it was no longer visible, but due to the shape on which it is built, it will take no more than a minute to fall to the ground...

"fuuu...I'll be honest with you, kid, at first I did it for the money, you know? 10 Millis Gold coins isn't something you see every day, but you killed my students and now I'm going to kill you for that..." Pablo whispered behind me and I used a Sonic boom to create distance between the two men.

45 seconds...

"I guess that's how it was, right? But what did you expect? My girlfriend was imprisoned in the slave market for no apparent reason. Do you think I would just stand idly by while she was sold?!" I shouted in indignation as I stared at them.

30 seconds...

"Hmmm....you're right, but what's up with Couleon, huh? Attacking a noble house without provocation just because of some spells?! What kind of man are you!! That's why you must die!! Pablo shouted And before I could respond, he lunged at me at high speed, but thanks to his injuries, he was weaker than before.

15 seconds!..

The distance between me and Pablo closed in less than a second and our swords collided, a hissing sound began to generate in the ground followed by an enormous pressure.

"Hmm? What's that noise?" Peikak muttered as he looked up at the sky only to see a huge stone pillar falling towards them at full speed.

10 seconds...

"shit!!" Without saying another word, Peikak started running, stopping a little further away to avoid being crushed.

"Heh, was that your secret weapon? Too bad, you missed by fifty meters" Pablo said in a mocking voice as our swords clashed.

5 seconds...

"No...that distance is more than enough!!" I shouted while increasing my barrier aura as much as I could.

"huh?...ahhh!!" I could only hear Pablo's terrified scream and my pillar of earth hit the ground like a meteorite.

(Krakaboom!!)

The impact was such that the pillar exploded into hundreds of thousands of pieces and the ground for miles around was lifted and a huge shock wave was formed.

My pupils burned, my eardrums ruptured, and I felt my organs collapse inside me as I was thrown hundreds of meters away.

The pillar acted like a drill, exploding underground, causing further destruction.

And in less than a minute a huge crater ten kilometers across was formed, destroying everything in its path.
