sword to scepter

Part 3 - The death of a warlord.

As shou locks eye with malachi, he grabs his bow, ready to shoot malachi.

He screams and reminds his soldiers as to how powerful they are, how strong they are and motivates them.

Both of the armies are motivated and they start battling aggressively.
Shou takes over his chariot, he rides the chariot faster and faster until he is not so far from malachi, he grabs 3 arrows, holds all of them together as he aims at malachi.

Malachi takes out his shield and orders his charioteer to turn east. Shou then proceeds to aim at his charioteer instead and shoots him, instantly killing him.

As Malachi loses control over his chariot, shou jumps down from the chariot, quickly unhooks the horse and rides it all while holding a spear on his right hand and a sword on his back, he throws the spear, he barely misses malachi as malachi ducks down to avoid it.

Shou pulls out his sword as he nears malachi. Unlike shou, malachi is not great at ranged fighting, but he is great at sword fighting despite his heavy personality. Malachi grabs his sword and prepares to fight.

Shou pulls up with his horse and jumps down, he gets his sword at an defensive position, malachi is confused for a second, but he believes shou is afraid of him and runs upto him in an offensive position, he tries to slash him but fails miserably, shou then turns around to finally end malachi's life while smiling, but it is too late, Malachi strikes Shou's ankle.

Shou, shocked to see malachi pull a brilliant move erases the smile on his face. malachi seizes this opportunity to strike his chest with all his might, but it only causes little damage as shou had worn a heavy chest plate along with his huge chest, malachi causes very little damage, but enrages shou, who then angles his sword at an angle and slashes malachi.
Malachi dies, but as he dies, he laughs and says " I might die, but I have killed you already".
