Sam’s health also decreased and he only has three bars left, even in this condition, the Knight is doing significant damage to him.
But the dagger in the place is really helping Sam a lot. Now the Knight not only has to make sure that he is not bleeding to death completely, but he also has to suppress the poison and fight with Sam. If he removed the dagger from the place, he would have an advantage. Soon, the Knight’s health dropped to three, but Sam’s health also dropped to one and he is a bit exhausted.
As he was thinking about how to make most of the situation, the Knight risked it all and attacked Sam.
He dashed forward and slashed Sam as he moved past him.
Sam knew he was out, but even in his last breath, he risked it all and swung his staff on the back of the Knight and hit it hard on the dagger as if he is hammering the nail.
Blood spurted out and before Sam bled to death, he ran to the edge of the stage and jumped off. He wanted to confirm something and before he jumped off, he could see the Knight health dropping to one bar and he removed the dagger and threw it down the stage.
Sam once again gasped for breath as he sat in his chair, but this time the torment is not that much, jumping off the stage is giving an instant and painless death.
Sam felt relieved when he experienced that. He wouldn’t want to die a painful death that many times, that is why he wanted to check if jumping off is also as painful, but apart from the greedy feeling of clinging to life and gasping for air, there is nothing he has to worry about.
The mental torment and going through a death is a lot less.
He calmed himself and waited for Kartikeya’s move. Now that Knight is of no use to him. Even if he made his move with it, he could barely do anything with that Knight and the most he could do was use it as a decoy to halt Sam’s steps.
But in hands of a commander like Kartikeya, it is still a great weapon. He moved the exact same Knight went for Sam’s Knight.
Sam once again reappeared on the battlefield and a new piece of information entered his mind. As a Knight, he can use a mount of his own to fight and he can summon it anytime he wants within in the battle. He looked at his health bar that has ten points and waited for the opponent to attack.
He has too many beasts that he could use as a mount, but that would depend on the opponent. Sam is no stupid and wouldn’t take this Knight on his last breath lightly. He sacrificed two pawns to deal with this knight and he wouldn’t dare make any mistake.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Knight whose back is still bleeding and skin already started turning purple looked at Sam and started running towards him.
Sam didn’t notice any energy fluctuations at start and felt weird, so he used his eye technique and when he noticed the anomaly, he couldn’t help but feel Kartikeya is too sly.
He stood there solemnly as the Knight was a few feet away, Sam waved his hand and Sky appeared before him.
He jumped on his back and dashed to the sky.
And right after he did that, the Knight exploded. The Knight used the spiritual core self-destruction method to deal some damage to Sam. That is why he thought Kartikeya is too sly.
This battle ended so casually without Sam even making any move. But before leaving he got another message and that is, for this Knight piece he cannot use another beast as his mount.
But he didn’t care. He went back and looked at Kartikeya with an intense expression. He didn’t expect that a great god like Kartikeya would actually stoop to this.
But he did say anything and sent the Knight to attack a Bishop.
The chain reaction has started and soon, the pieces will be dealt with one by one. There will be a continuous streak of elimination.
But most of them are pawns. From Sam’s side, only the knights and bishops are out from the big players, but from Kartikeya’s side, the rook is also out.
For some reason, Sam had a feeling that Kartikeya is not playing seriously. He doesn’t know why, but he is sure of it. But still, he is feeling the pressure. That might be the difference between them.
When he entered the battlefield, he saw the Bishop of the opponent has a long robe and he has a staff that has an icy blue crystal on the end. It is definitely not a staff for close combat.
He is definitely a mage.
Sam is on top of Sky and looked at the Mage whose aura is extremely frosty.
The bishop pointed the staff at Sam and the crystal emitted a dazzling light and a frost beam rushed towards Sam at an incredible speed.
Sam dodged it and looked at the bishop in a surprised expression. This is a pure elemental energy beam. Not a normal spell that would have various effects, rather pure elemental energy beam.
He wanted to try this, but his energy beam is not as good and even the beams he equipped on the Naval fleet are nothing but toys in front of this energy beam. The energy is so pure and concentrated that Sam felt like it would be a waste if he didn’t use this.
Sam didn’t make a move for a few seconds, he just dodged continuously as he waited for the Mage to show more cards. But that guy is only using the frost beam.
After some time, Sam got bored and Sky flapped his wings. The wind started moving and a storm started in the whole stage.
The Mage still stood there and tapped the floor with the tail end of the staff. And a thin ice shelter appeared and surrounded the Mage. It is just an Icebox whose walls are extremely thin to the point if not for the frost air and the blue hue it has, there is no way one could identify there is wall there.
But Sam merely smiled.
He made Sky go up as much as he could and stood there for a while.
Sky started flapping its wings hard and the wings are even brightened with the wind elemental energy as gales started appearing all over the stage.
The frost beam was still coming, and Sam is dodging. The frost beam barely hit the vacuum around them.
The Mage finally lost patience and tapped the tail end of the staff a few time continuously and every time he tapped, a glowing blue dot appeared on the different place of the stage and with another wave of the staff the dots joined together and a weird shape appeared.
The Bishop moved to the middle of the shape and an Ice fort appeared. Sam was amused. But the show is not over yet. From various entrances of the fort some moving ice sculptures came out. But Sam’s gaze is not on them.
It was on the health bars of his opponent which are depleted by three bars. Only seven bars left. Sam was ecstatic. This move cost a lot from the opponent and then only he looked at the ice sculptures.
They seemed to be Ice puppets. Sam furrowed his brows and used the eye technique, he could feel the faint Dark element energy from the puppets.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe understood this mage’s secondary element.
As for why Sam called them puppets instead of Golems, they are not made of a single entity. Although, every part is made of Ice, each part is made individually and linked together. Then only he understood the Ice fort’s application.
As he was thinking what he should do, he saw the Ice puppets flying towards him. There are two types one looked like a bird and the other looked like a human. The human jumped on the bird and came to him flying.
Sam threw a wind blade to test them. The puppets didn’t stop, there is a huge gash on their bodies with which they continued their journey.
He smirked and threw a large golden fire crow at them. The flames danced towards the Puppets and they evaporated in an instant. They are not that strong, but they are too many.
As he was thinking of a method to destroy them all, Sky hurriedly dodged and three frost beams passed through the point he was there before.
One of them was from the Bishop himself and the other two are from the fort.
The Bishop is looking at Sam with a mocking gaze.
Sam returned that gaze with a smirk and Sky moved. He started circling around the whole stage at an incredible speed and the puppets couldn’t keep up.
The wind roared and a storm hit the fort and some puppets are being destroyed from every flap of Sky’s wings. Sam’s eyes never left the Bishop and he extended his left hand outwards as Golden Flames spewed out.
Soon there is a change in Bishop’s expression. The whole stage became an inferno. And the Bishop is trying his best to increase the temperature but to no avail. He started panicking, because his health is reducing even though, Sam is not attacking.
Because, the puppets and Fort are connected to him, for every puppet Sam killed there is a small damage to those health bars, then why would Sam leave such an opportunity?
He took it and the result was obvious.
No frost beam could hit Sam and Sky and no puppet could catch them.
The fort started evaporating and soon the Bishop is the only guy who stood in the middle.
Sam took out his staff and jumped down from that place and wind elemental energy was surrounding that staff.
As he reached near the floor, he slammed the staff on that person’s abdomen and the body burst open.
