Chapter 125 Death Of Emperor Hick
BAM!!
Hick's Sword clashed with the red hair soldier's blade, pushing him some meters back.
"This? What realm are you?!"
He asked.
The figure stared at him for some seconds, and walked backward, three soldiers instantly ran past him, heading towards the Emperor.
"....."
Hick observed the Soldier's action. His eyes widened seeing the man walking towards Angela.
"No!!"
He blocked the three soldiers' attacks, hit one with his shoulder, and kicked the second, and third... Without hesitation, he shot towards the man.
Angela blocked a soldier, and flew backward from the collision, she stabilized herself after moving five meters back, and looked up at the five soldiers in shock.
'These?! Are legendary realms this powerful?! Even with my Armor's advantages, I still couldn't hit one!'
"I see the princess is having some slight problems?"
Angela turned around, seeing the red hair man walking towards her, while dragging his sword behind him.
"You!"
She turned around, shakily pointing her sword at the man.
"You do know you're weak against me, right?" the man asked, half of his face concealed with a red mask.
Angela raised a brow. "You might be stronger than I! But that didn't mean I'll back down!" she hissed.
"I like your courage, too bad it won't help you."
Red energy light slowly covered the soldier's sword. Seeing this, Angela's guard instantly increased, she got in a defensive posture, face serious.
"Goodbye, Angela."
Whoosh!!!
"NO!!!" Hick yelled. Continue reading on empire
BAM!!!!
The red hair soldier stopped behind Angela, he calmly looked down at his sword, seeing blood rolling down the blade.
Angela stared at her father, who was standing in front of her in shock.
"AUGH!!"
He threw up a mouthful of blood, falling to his knees.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Father!!!"
Angela yelled in horror, she rushed to her father's front, looking at the wound on his lower abdomen.
Hick smile slightly, and caress Angela's hair: "You need to take your sister and Run, don't look back... The Human empire is now in your hands."
Hick flicked his wrist, and a golden emblem appeared on his palm... He smiled at Angela and placed it on her palm.
"Father?"
Angela looked down at the Emblem, then at her father, tears running down her face.
"Angela, you must look for a way to remove the curse off your armor and your body, so you can break through from the sky realm... You must! Cough!" He coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"But you said the curse is only in my armor?" Angela was stunned.
"Cough, I lied... It's in you, you must find a way to remove it, Now go! Go with Aura!!"
He plunged his sword in the ground, and supported himself up.
"Father?!"
Aura ran over, her face filled with shock.
"My King!!" The commander was stunned.
"Commander, take them out of here!!"
"My King, I don't think that'll be possible." The commander said in a low voice, looking around the place.
Hick moved his gaze around, seeing they were the only ones remaining... And were currently surrounded.
"Nowhere to hide, Emperor Hick... Today, your family line will all parish." The red hair soldier said.
He pointed his sword at the four, and gave a command:
"Kill them all!"
Whoosh!!
Before the soldiers could attack, a sword plunged into the ground, right in front of the red hair man.
The man looked up, seeing a young boy with silver hair flying towards them.
"Jack?" Angela was stunned.
Aaron landed on the ground, and looked up at the red hair soldier.
"What are you doing, Jack?!" The red hair man asked, his gaze cold.
"I won't let you kill them... Stand down."
The man scoffed;
"We don't really care if you protect them, our mission is leave no one Alive, you just made your decision, so don't regret it later! Kill them, leave Jack alive; Elder Kara will personally have his head."
The soldiers nodded, and shot forward with clear killing instinct.
Aaron looked at the stunned group behind and smiled: "Leave this to me."
Instantly he multiplied into a hundred, and shot forward.
Whoosh!!!
Everyone only saw a couple of afterimages, and Aaron appeared on his previous spot, all the copies instantly disappeared, turning into white smoke.
"This?"
The man was stunned, seeing as the soldiers dropped dead.
"How's this?" He moved his gaze around, and looked at Aaron in shock:
"You!! You're really going against Elder Kara?!!"
"My job is to fight Injustice, not make them, to me; this is wrong."
Aaron said in a calm tone, blood dripping down his sword.
The red hair soldier tilted his head to the side, and chuckled with Aaron's words.
"You might pretend as much as you want, But I know you have surely done some injustice in life, don't claim to be a saint--"
"--I'm not a saint, I have killed so much people and monsters, both children and adults, I have killed both... So I can't be called a saint."
The group behind looked at one another in shock, while the red hair man became serious.
"Die then!"
Without wasting a second, he shot towards Aaron.
"Get out from my sight."
Aaron infused his energy in his sword, and sent a powerful energy blade towards the soldier, who wasn't expecting the sudden attack.
"What?"
BOOM!!!!
Angela and her family closed their eyes from the explosion, and after some seconds; they opened their eyes, seeing no one... Only the red hair man's half sword blade.
Aaron sheathed back his sword and turned around to the group, he walked towards the Emperor, and checked the wound... All the while, Angela's, Aura's, and the commander's gazes were fixed on him.
After ten seconds, Aaron shook his head: "I'm sorry, I can't do anything, the wound is deep, and there's dark energy around it... So no health potion can cure him."
"What?!" Angela and Aura exclaimed in shock.
"It's ok."
Hick sat on the ground, staring at Aaron.
"Young man, who really are you?" He asked. "At least you can tell me the truth."
Aaron stared at him for some seconds, and revealed:
"My name is Aaron, not Jack... You all know me as the Cursed Child."
His words exploded in their heads like a dynamite, stunning the three... Instantly, the Commander grew out his sword, pointing it at Aaron.
"Stop commander, cough!" Hick said to the Commander.
"But, Emperor?"
"I-I know. He isn't the Cursed Child. The priests were lied to, and they lied to us unknowingly... That led to the misunderstanding that he's the Cursed Child, when actually he-he's the child of the sky, our savior." Hick said with difficulty.
The Commander slowly lowered his sword, his face filled with surprised and shock, staring at Aaron, utterly speechless.
"Angela, Aura... You mustn't see Aaron as an enemy, this is my last wish; and Aaron, cough! I don't know if you truly like my daughter, or what your plan is in the academy... But you must help me protect them, that's all I ask for." He said.
Aaron stared at him for a couple of seconds, and looked up at the sisters.
"Girls, you must make peace with Aaron... No matter what happens, help and work with him... Together, you must take down Kara... And try to stop Skull."
Angela nodded with tears rolling down her cheek:
"I understand father, we'll follow your order."
"Good, you're a good child... Look after your sister, and the throne... Commander, don't attack the academy, wait for Aaron... I know he's planning something; and Aaron, please, help Elvis."
Aaron nodded: "You don't have to worry, Emperor. That's why I'm here."
Hick nodded with a smile, and suddenly remained silent.
"Dad? Dad! Dad!!"
"No. No. No! You can't leave us dad! You can't!!"
Aaron exhaled, looking at the Emperor:
"He's gone."
The girls burst into tears hearing Aaron, they both sat on the ground, holding their father as they cried.
[After five minutes of crying.]
"Commander, please take care of the girls, I got something to do."
Angela looked up at Aaron. She stood up, and walked up to him:
"So you are the cursed... I mean... Why did you pretend to be someone else?! And even go to the academy which is the most dangerous place for you? Why? What's your plan?" She threw countless questions at him in one go.
Aaron stared at her and sighed softly:
"This is not the time... I'll visit the human Empire soon, then we can talk in private, as for now... There's something I need to do, Commander, please take care of them."
Aaron nodded at her, and flew into the air.
Angela stared at his figure till he disappeared in the clouds: 'I need to know why you did it!'
She thought.
"Come on, Princesses... We need to move the Emperor to the Capital, then we can think of what to do next." The Commander said, staring at the Emperor.
"Ok." Angela nodded her head, and lowered her gaze to the emblem in her hand.
'I won't fail you father.'

Knowing he had flown more than a mile from the group, and no one trailing him... Aaron transformed into the red hair soldier, moving towards the academy.
'This will be fun.'
