Origin Of Evil 51 Final Battle 5

Marcus was finished with his meet up and said "Good, go and prepare for tomorrow's battle! Robert, you stay with me and help me finish this bottle!"

As he said that, he took out yet another bottle as everyone left, except for Robert. He poured in the wine in two cups, and once he was sure everyone had left his face turned serious as he asked "Have you been able to investigate?"

Robert took his gla.s.s and said before taking a sip "That Charles is definitely shady, I didn't manage to find any evidence, but he will definitely try to betray you if he can."

Marcus nodded and said "Good, he still thinks he has total control over the situation. How are the troops doing?"

Robert asked with a concerned face "Aren't you afraid of losing so many soldiers, my Lord? They are vital in managing this city."

Marcus shook his head and said "It doesn't matter, delivering this to the King will be enough for me to get out of this s.h.i.t hole and go to the capital. And I intend on bringing your with me. I'm not going into the court alone."

Robert nodded and said "The training has gone well. This dimensional magic is very hard to pull off, but using their life as a sacrifice will make the process way easier. We definitely will be able to summon and control a rank 3 lifeform, we just don't know which one yet."

Marcus smiled and said "With a monster as strong as the average level 3 Knight, we will definitely win that battle." Then, Marcus took his own gla.s.s and the two began drinking, Robert reporting things he noticed to Marcus.

Back to the present, a large being exited the s.p.a.ce rift. As he looked at it, Dorian could only hide his surprise thanks to his mask. In front of his stood a mythical creature, renowned and believed to only be a legend on Earth.

A five meters tall humanoid body, covered in hair, looking a little bit like an ape but much more straight in its stance. Deep blue eyes, white fur and a tall body. Dorian instantly recognized this as the Abominable Snowman, aka the Yeti.

This Yeti looked around with rage in its eyes, probably looking for preys to unleash his rage on. He first looked at the people who summoned it, but all were dead except for two, and those two were its masters.

It then received an order from its masters. Kill the two humans. The Yeti wasn't just a dumb beast. Although not at the level of a human, it was able of understanding many kinds of commands, even slightly complicated ones.

So when it was told to kill the two humans, it immediately knew who the targets were. And unlike humans who live protected in cities for their whole lives, the Yeti had lived on the edge of death in the wild its entire life, so it had developed an instinct for danger no human can hope to come close to.

And when it received its command, the Yeti felt like smashing its masters to death. The human who was stepping back was fine, the Yeti could swat him like a fly, he would die with no effort.

But the other human… The Yeti could feel that if it tried to do anything to him, it would die. It couldn't defy its masters' orders, but it definitely could earn time.

So the Yeti ignored Dorian and his overwhelming killing intent, and instead went for Charles.

Dorian didn't move to help Charles, although he was surprised by the monster summoned he wouldn't help someone like Charles. Moreover, that gave him time to recover from the injury he inflicted on himself earlier on against the Stingers.

Charles retreated madly upon seeing the Yeti rush at him, but he was way too slow to escape from his hunter. As it arrived near Charles, the Yeti tried to slap Charles.

The thing is, the Yeti's hand was bigger than Charles' chest, so it was very hard to avoid. And yet, at the last moment Charles was able to dive under the hand, evading the strike. What he didn't know was that the Yeti could have killed him, but it was so afraid of fighting Dorian that it slowed its hand down on purpose.

Still, it couldn't disobey on purpose, not too much at least, and thus continued attacking. The Yeti kicked down, which Charles dodged again. But this time, the strength behind that kick was so strong that the ground trembled and little broken stone shards were sent flying everywhere.

Charles fell to the ground, his legs punctured by small stone shards. But he did not make a sound, as if he wasn't feeling the pain.

The Yeti approached Charles, who couldn't move away, and finished him.

And yet, just as the Yeti was about to hit Charles, a shadow flashed by and the Yeti was forced to step back, a gash opened on its chest, dying its white fur red.

Everyone looked at the attacker. Next to Charles stood an old man with no weapon in hand, and yet his hand was bloodied. He was licking the blood off. Charles forcefully got on his knees and said "Master, you've saved me."

The old man laughed eerily and said "Good my little slave, you have done a good job…" The old man turned into a shadow and arrived before the confused Yeti, slashing its chest open again, this time managing to make it fall on the ground.

Then, the old man moved again, arrived next to Robert who was helping Marcus up. This time, Dorian had a clear view on what was happening. The old man coated his hand with Life Essence and used it as a blade to injure the Yeti.

The Yeti howled as it fell, but couldn't get up fast enough to protect its masters. The old man's hand was stopped by the barrier protecting Marcus though.

Seeing this, Marcus sighed in relief and said "You fool, even if you have that weird technique that allows you to be faster, only a level 3 Knight can… destroy this… barrier."

As he spoke, the old strange man had slashed yet again, and this time the barrier shattered in front of the strike.

Marcus and Robert panicked, but they didn't get to plea for their lives as the old man decapitated both of them with a swipe of his hand.

The Yeti, who was rolling on the ground, calmed down a little, as if it was relieved its masters died, and remained on the ground.

The old man glanced at it quickly but didn't do anything and instead turned to Dorian and said "Young man, you have really surprised me. I barely arrived into this s.h.i.tty town and I've met someone as strong as you. Tell me, what's your name."

Dorian replied "It is common courtesy to present yourself first." The old man laughed and said "Right, you are absolutely right. I am Sir Ludwig Latveria, patriarch of the Latveria family. We are a clan of a.s.sa.s.sins."

Dorian nodded and said "I have several t.i.tles, such as the Butcher or Boring Guy, but my name is Dorian Hunt. I am not part of any special organization, although I was sent here for a mission…"

Ludwig smiled and said "Good, I will remember your name, I always remember the names of the geniuses." Dorian smiled and said "Funny. Are you sure you want to do this?"

Ludwig nodded, and Dorian asked "First, tell me, did you enslave Charles or something? Or is he acting out of his free will?"

Ludwig tilted his head and said "Is he your friend? Yes, he has been bewitched. And I'll give you a free tip: the only way to free him is to kill me."

Dorian smiled and said "That's very kind of you. You can die now."

Ludwig grinned, but froze all of a sudden. Then, his head fell off to the ground.
