ZILLA


We all quickly gathered at the boundary in between the Grimtol Fort and the Palace of Rouguemont–the Worthwood Hold, as soon as the sun went up. And, as I did expect, God Armaros and Princess Ariella does seem to have really improved their powers.

"Zilla." Aella called out as she tried to approach me.

I didn't even look at her. I tried to focus on God Armaros.

"Are you willing to pay the price today?" God Armaros asked, having a good laugh.

"You could perhaps ask that to yourself." I responded back, grinning to him.

"I will enjoy the opportunity to defeat you; this day will not mark the end unless you die in agony." Princess Ariella went on to say.

"It will be a great honor to die as a result of having to fight for something that is good and righteous." I simply responded proudly.

I'm quite certain it infuriated her because I have seen her grip her bow tightly. It's really quite satisfactory in my part.

"You evil!" Princess Ariella exclaimed as she came flying over here to me.

"Excuse me. I am not you." I remarked to her, my eyebrows furrowed as I stopped each of her red arrows.

Lord Red and Lord Lowell both suddenly yelling my name but I didn't want to look at them.

"Wanting to play like a damsel in distress? Ridiculous; it clearly shows how flimsy you truly are." Princess Ariella quipped.

I shrugged my shoulders and started laughing at her as I lifted my scimitar and awakened thunder and lightning to power it.

"Oh please, isn't that your dream? Why pass it to me?" I said, trying to make her perhaps angrier and angrier.

"Shut up!" She exclaimed, releasing a slew of red arrows at me.

But even before it ended up reaching to me, I used my other hand to create a barrier, stopping all of the arrows and completely destroying them all.

"My turn." I murmured as I completely dismantled the safety barrier and flew away my scimitar at her, impaling her with its own lightning storm power.

I just saw her throw up blood. But she quickly wiped aside the blood in the corner of her lips.

"Weak." She said through a cheeky grin.

I watched her start drawing a different arrow this time, something which holds her devilish strength.

"I should've killed you back then. If only I hadn't felt just that little sympathy for you, I should never have let you come up with a way to wake up." Princess Ariella said, furrowing my eyebrow.

Is she the one to be blamed for my hundreds of years of deep slumber?

"I frittered away my power by slowing all of them to help cure you." She made clear as she geared her arrow at me.

I took a stance and instantaneously built a barrier to protect myself from the arrow.

"I should've just killed you with my own hands." She said, her eyes' color gradually turning into pure black.

Her arrow took a flight across to my spot, slowly breaking through the barrier I'd built. Perhaps I completely underestimated her demonic power. Now I realize, it is quite powerful and dangerous.
