My legendary class is Husband Of Deathwill Sisters?!
Chapter 116: On his kneesChapter 116: On his knees
[A little before Alex's Ultimate Skill.]
"Sara…" Henred dropped to the ground.
His battle horse had crumbled into smithereens. He had a hole that his former wife had inflicted on him on his chest.
Blood oozed out of it.
He didn't look good at all. His whole body continuously shivered, and he was getting paler with each second. He coughed a lot too, and he was surely embracing the coldness of death.
On her mount, Sara looked down at him, "Do not ever try to come close to my daughter again!"
Henred closed his eyes, "Why won't you kill me?"
Sara ignored that question. She turned around in search of the third prince, their main enemy.
She knew that the prince had decided to face Alex alone. Sara knew that her beloved would face a fatal defeat with their level disparity and bloodline differences.
Even though Sara suffered losses that required her to stop and recuperate, she would never allow her Ultimate Skill to rest until all of them returned home.
She slowly made her way toward the prince's location.
But then, the whole forest shook.
"Ultimate Skill!" Alex's voice swept through the den.
Sara couldn't believe in her ears. She thought that her heart had been lying to her for a moment. Wouldn't it be nice for her beloved to have his own Ultimate Skill? He surely would help them!
'That's… dullahan's mana?' Sara inferred from afar.
From what she could feel, it seemed like a foreign dullahan had been fighting with the prince in Alex's place.
She couldn't tell who it was.
She thought that perhaps her mother had arrived on the scene, but that was highly unlikely.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe moved as fast as possible to see the whole battlefield.
But then, the dense mist swallowed a lot of the forest. Stepping into that mist wouldn't be wise, particularly alone with the wounded body.
Sara couldn't care about her state, though.
But as she took the step forward, the familiar energy descended onto her.
[Stella Deathwill has healed 5% of your HP.]
[Stella Deathwill has regenerated 10% of your stamina.]
[Stella Deathwill has…]
It hurt a little, but Sara ignored the pain and focused on the mild side of her sister's healing. Sara lifted her eyes as her body healed, finding Stella without any problem.
Stella's wings shone like white stars in that place, and she exuded holiness from head to toe.
Sara's happiness lasted for a second, "Aunt?"
Stella wasn't alone. Behind her, Schnee and the third princess had been following her descent.
Schnee was jumping from branch to branch; her eyes followed the princess's steps closely. In her feral state, she remained silent and vigilant.
The blond woman acted as if everyone else was insignificant.
But as she dropped before Sara, the third princess parted her lips, "Your daughter awakened a little of her power. This scene no longer belongs to us, but to Nektor and… that man."
Sara tensed. She saw that her aunt had seen through everything on the battlefield. She could even see through Nektor's mist, which was an outstanding show of her inborn abilities.
Even though Sara wondered why her aunt acted like that despite what had happened in the past, she didn't dare to show any hostility. She used this situation to heal her wounds properly.
"Has Alex really used… the Ultimate Skill?" Sara whispered before the mist.
As if answering the dullahan momma, a powerful slash swept through the whole mist, kicking it away. It dispersed into thousand of particles before thoroughly disappearing.
Alex and Nektor's headless bodies appeared in an open view.
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
Nektor's body had suffered losses that had been unimaginable before his arrival here.
Since he had confirmed Sara and everyone else's levels, Nektor was confident in his mission's success.
But Alex's progress and the dullahan king's sword in his hand had thwarted Nektor's plans!
Their headless bodies had been dripping with blood. In a lot of places, every bystander could see opened wounds, revealing bloody flesh.
Alex's clothes were tattered, and Nektor's armor was destroyed. They were in a devastating state, looking on the verge of falling unconscious.
Alas, Nektor wasn't done yet.
After his mist had been cut by Alex, he gathered every possible bit of it, strengthening his sword. He added the same effect Sara had done against the wolf bosses. Naturally, the swirling mist around his sword was much stronger.
Nektor howled, "I've also progressed, you bastard!"
He lifted his sword, ready to hack Alex's headless body down.
From afar, Alex had been staring at his body with narrowed eyes. Countless thoughts ran through his mind.
'This is my current body peak… Isn't it?' Alex whispered within himself.
He personally couldn't inflict enough damage or drive Nektor to the corner. But after becoming headless and losing connection with his body, Alex 'miraculously' had achieved such a feat.
He inferred that Elias Deathwill's Swordsmanship had truly revealed its might.
'I can't let it end like this… There's something that only I can do… And I will need your help for that, Sara…' Alex's eyes rose, matching Sara's disbelieving hues.
She couldn't hear him. In fact, she had been shocked to see that Alex had become dullahan and that he exuded genuine hubris like pure-blood royalties did.
But as she locked her eyes with him, Sara felt like she heard Alex's voice.
Their blue eyes shone like blue lanterns in the darkness.
[Your body has gathered enough Sword Mana.]
Alex's headless body had been utilizing all that he had at his disposal, except for battle spirit, as Alex's wolf would be just a burden here. It meant that the headless form had been gathering Sword Mana passively.
That mana flowed through Alex's veins.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Nektor… I can't match you yet… But you aren't fighting Elias Deathwill… Leave that man and his swordsmanship for me… I will beat father-in-law in the future, not you," Alex spoke in a haughty tone, "You shall fall now."
[You have used Heart Duo(S)]
[You have used Sara Deathwill's Soul Eyes.]
Alex and Sara simultaneously used the same skill. They were already in a good relationship to be in such a close connection. Their eyesight became one, and they could see through Nektor's souls as if they had X-ray vision.
Alex inwardly wished for his head to float. He achieved that feat without any problem, possibly due to the connection with his wife and his feelings on the line. His head flew straight to his headless body.
At last, he returned. He got control over his body!
"Taste a little of my swordsmanship! Alex Deathwill's Swordsmanship!" Alex grasped the sword tightly.
The black weapon let out chilling light.
He swung it down, even though Nektor had been not in his reach!
From that swing, the sharp slash came out! Alex did what Elias Deathwill had done in the past, after countless training with sword mana.
He sent raw sword mana and intent at his enemy!
"I can cut your soul without any problem," Alex's lips curved up, close to a sneer.
[Alex Deathwill's Swordsmanship proficiency has been increased.]
[You have absorbed the skill from your wife, Sara Deathwill.]
[Soul Eyes(A) has been acquired.]
[Soul Eyes has been upgraded.]
[Soul Eyes Of Alexander Deathwill(S)]
BANG!
Nektor fell onto his knees.
No voice came from him.
No one from the crowd dared to utter anything.
