Legendary Heroes (Mobile Legends Fanfic)

Chapter 46 | Risking for you

"Don't test my patience, Moskov. Are you not loyal to me? I saved you." The previous Queen of Doom, Velia said. Her words cold and bitter.

Moskov backed away from the two, still in the situation where he couldn't decide which person he should follow. His mind is telling him to follow Velia, for saving him. But deep inside his heart is telling him to go with Vexana, for what? She has done nothing to him but make him her slave. "Enough with these attempts of persuading. How about a match? If I lose you get to kill me and take back the throne. Sounds lovely doesn't it?" Vexana suggested, forming a sinister, ghoulish grin on her face.

Velia glanced at the mad woman's unreadable face. Vexana's suggestion did sound good, but doesn't she know that it is useless to fight against Velia with a Goddess body? Vexana was only able to survive the previous fight only because Moskov is there by her side. But without him, what will she do? Vexana will not dare run away again, her days of running is over. She'll prove to everyone that she can fight without someone helping her. "Are you certain, Vexana? Or have you lost your sanity and grip of reality?" Velia asked, her voice harsh like a slash on the back, but it did not affect Vexana, she merely just chuckled at Velia's question. "Oh, Velia. My sanity no longer exist within me, it has been gone for eons." Vexana answered, letting her body fall down on the couch that is behind her. Haunting souls began to come out of the walls, dashing towards to Vexana. The souls let out whispery screams and cries as they surrounded Vexana. "This is why you mustn't let a crazy woman run a kingdom, it will fall down to the ground. Just like centuries ago when you were heartbroken. Why are you being friendly towards Alice when you're supposed to kill her out of hatred?" Velia asked, the tone of her voice showing curiosity.

Some of the souls that swirled around Vexana turned into tea cups, small plates, spoons, and one tea pot that has a strange substance inside of it. Vexana let out a giggle out of her lips, grabbing the tea pot's handle and then poured its liquid towards to the tea cups until they're full of tea. "Conflict between two Queens can cause a war inside the Abyss. That is one of the scenarios that should never happen, since the Abyss is already in a bad state. No pun intended." Vexana answered, grabbing her tea cup's handle. She then lifted her tea cup, sipping its delicious, hot tea that is inside of it. Velia glanced at Vexana while she sips her tea, ashamed how in the world she got herself killed by such a fool. "So you decided to have a peace treaty with her? How ironic. Evil never likes peace, we mustn't be-"
  "United? But we need to, dear. That's why the Land of Dawn is strong, they are united, while we the darkened ones are divided. That is why we keep failing to destroy the other realms. Haven't you noticed it yet? Ever since I took over the throne and made most of the strongest beings here my allies, we have destroyed some of the realms of this world. What did you ever do while you were Queen? Nothing, and your plans that you were talking about while you were Queen doesn't exist." Vexana interrupted harshly, placing her tea cup down on the coffee table. "Do you accept my suggestion or are you going back to your slumber?" Vexana devilishly smiled, standing up to her feet. "Of course I'll accept your suggestion. I'll be the one to talk once you're on your knees begging for mercy!" Velia raised her voice out of pure hatred. "Let me autocorrect that for you. I'll be the one trash talking once I finally kill you after ten deaths of trying." Vexana said mischievously, gesturing her souls to go inside of her slender body. "

Velia clenched her hands into a fist, glancing at Vexana. I'll beat her up, show her no mercy, and then humiliate her in front of the powerful beings, Velia said inside her mind. Her heart began to race from her immense wrath. "You'll regret saying that. Meet me in the Throne Room once you're done crying and prepared." Velia said before walking out of the room. Leaving a fiery atmosphere in her trail.

"You're insane, my lady's powers are combined with the Goddess of War. Are you just planning yourself to get killed, is that it?" Moskov said, a hint of confusion with a mix of anger in his tone. Vexana walked over to the marksman, lifting her hand towards his chin to lift his head up. "Don't call her that, I'm your lady now. I do have a plan and it doesn't involve myself brutally getting defeated by an idiotic Queen that you previously served. I won't spoil the rest of my plans for you, I'm sure you'll enjoy it." Vexana pulled her hand that is tipping Moskov's chin down, a smile forming on her face. "Go to Alice, I'm sure she's dying for a company since she's currently healing herself." Vexana ordered, her body slithering out of the room, but is suddenly stopped by a grab on the wrist. "I have to watch you and Velia fight. I'll get anxious not knowing if..." Moskov stopped his sentence, turning his head to hide away his worried looking face. Come on say it! Say my name! Vexana said inside her mind, her heart slightly quickening its rate. "Are you getting worried about m-"
"I'll get worried if I don't know if Velia is safe or not." Moskov interrupted Vexana before she could nearly finish. He turned his head to look at her, unable to understand what Vexana just said to him. "I didn't quite hear what you were saying. Can you repeat it again?" Moskov asked, a bit confused why Vexana looked grim for a moment. "It's nothing important. You can watch if you want to or go to Alice, whatever you desire, it doesn't matter anyways. I'm going to beat the hell out of Velia and reveal to you how angry I can get, you don't even understand. Ugh, why are you so foolish sometimes?" Vexana said, saying her words rather quickly and a hint of anger in her voice. She is clearly showing her mad behavior towards him, making Moskov puzzled why she's suddenly angry at the moment. Why was I going to think that he was going to say my name? He isn't even loyal to me, he even betrayed me in front of those people! God dammit! Vexana said inside her mind, her blood beginning to boil.

Moskov stared at Vexana before slowly letting go of her wrist. "Did I do something wrong?" Moskov asked, taking a step back away from Vexana. "If you only have pupils maybe you can see your mistakes better!" Vexana answered harshly before walking over to the doors to slam it open, leaving the room with a furious feeling.

Few hours ahead, far away from the Abyss, near the realm of Eruditio. Argus, a fallen angel with an immense power looked at his current victim. His ancient, dark sword piercing through the victim's chest, his blood spilling all over his sword and body. Clint is the victim and he showed no sign of pain nor fear towards this demonic angel. "C-Clint! Why did you save me?!" Layla asked, stuttering her words. Tears instantly formed in her eyes, dropping down quickly down her face. Clint turned his to look at her, feeling his body being mushed into spikes when he moved, but he knows that seeing Layla die in front of him would pain him even more than the pain he is currently having. "I won't just stand the-there and be a stupid moron letting yo-you die in front of my face. I'll risk m-my life for you, su-sugar..." Clint stammered his words, his body collapsing against Layla. Argus looked at his tainted sword, grunting some words. "Pathetic mortal, you can never run away from-" Rafaela suddenly came into the scene, smacking Argus on the face using her holy staff before he could finish his words. "Flee quickly! I'll deal with this fallen angel!" Rafaela shouted loudly, clear anger in her voice. Her staff showing a bright, yellow glow. Revealing that she used one of her spells. Layla did what Rafaela told her to do, she quickly carried Clint's slowly dying body, she didn't care if he's heavy like a cow, right now she just needs to get away from this fight with Clint and Franco.

Argus did not have any pain from Rafaela's smack, but she terribly annoyed him. He glanced at this petty angel, not realizing who she is. "An angel in my presence? You are more idiotic than these mortals. Perhaps you wish to die? Don't worry, I'll take you to Hell with me!" Argus said with wrath, charging his demonic sword towards Rafaela.

Rafaela quickly dodged Argus' attack before she could have gotten badly injured. Her heart quickened, but she did not show that she's alarmed nor in terror. "Please stop killing people, Argus. How did you become this way? You used to be one of the greatest angels in the Heavens! Please allow me to purify this darkness away from your soul and mind." Rafaela suggested, showing that she doesn't want to fight him. But words are impossible to reach Argus in this evil state, he is far away from being convinced now. "Answering to an Angel's question is unacceptable. You must be eliminated." Argus denied her suggestion, his body preparing for another attack. "Forgive me for smacking you! It was to get your attention. But I do not wish to harm you. Please Argus, come back home." Rafaela began to sound desperate, is it too late to reach for his light? Has it already disappeared? Rafaela deeply hopes not for if there is darkness, there is always light. She spread her arms, a gesture for him to hug her. "My only home is a sea full of blood and bodies of the beings that I have killed." Argus said, dashing towards to Rafaela.

Rafaela bit her lip, dodging Argus' attack once again but got hurt in the process. She let out a noise of pain as his sword created a cut on Rafaela's waistline, her blood spilling down to her body. At least it didn't pass through my body, Rafaela said inside her mind. Slightly feeling hopeless in her words. "I know you're still there, Argus. Please, come back to me." Rafaela said softly, beginning to cry. She misses him so much, she would think about him everyday, but now, she feels like the Argus that she once know is gone. "Run away with them, my dear friend." A beastly voice said, blocking Rafaela's view of Argus. It was Minotaur, he didn't look happy in seeing her get hurt by her past lover. In fact he looked mad. "Minotaur? What are you doing? You should run!" Rafaela said, using her healing ability to heal her wound that is on her waistline. "I'll be fine, I have my healing skills to heal my injuries." Rafaela said, flying over to Minotaur to place her hand on his shoulder. "He can kill you in an instant, I wouldn't want that to happen. Now go, I'll be able to give time for you to get as far away as possible." Minotaur said, clenching his large hammer's handle tightly. Rafaela still refused to leave him, after all, Minotaur is a dear friend. "I will never leave a friend behind." Rafaela said, a beautiful smile forming on her face. Minotaur returned the smile, but it didn't look as charming as hers.

"I knew you'd say that." Minotaur said, suddenly pulling out a strange looking portal ball, he then threw it to the ground, pushing Rafaela inside once it turned into a portal. "Nooo!" Rafaela cried as she tried her hardest to flee the portal's pulling, but it was near impossible. "You'll be safe, this way you won't be able to see my death." Minotaur said, the portal gradually closing shut until he could no longer see the beautiful angel. I'm glad that I've met you, Rafaela. Minotaur thought before glancing at the demon before him.
