BXBX NOVEL Chapter 192 - War 6
"You have no where to go."
What!
They froze!
Their eyes widened. Their brain malfunction for a couple of seconds, their heart missed a bit. The warm breeze became hard to breath. Subconsciously, their chest to move up and down. It them a couple of seconds before they could recover from the initial shock.
"D-D-Don\'t… T-Tell.."
Swiss!
Lady Mata appeared in front of the group like a phantom. Her brow raised, staring at the incoming Vulture Knights. A frown appeared on her face. She looked back to where they were coming and then to the incoming company. Immediately, she realized what was going on. She shook her head to dismissed the thought. However, the truth had already happened.
Perspiration poured off her brow like an open damn. Her cold expression turned to worry. She blinked, opening her mouth but word couldn\'t come out. Dilemma. What should I do!? What! What! She shouted in her mind, but nothing came up. The only option was to fight
Fight! Her heart miss a beat. Her spin filled with could sweats. Her heart was racing at Mach 10. Her lungs constricted, failing to draw in oxygen. Seeing the conflicted on the cold arrogant Lady Mata. The PAR began to sweat bullets. For a cold arrogant lady like Mata to be sweating like shit. Then…
"Ma, we are—"
"Shut up!" Lady Mata screamed, veins protruding from her forehead. She looked at the middle-aged with a piercing gaze. Seeing the deadly gaze, the middle-aged trembled, stumbling back. Scoff. She avert her gaze, looking at the horizon, lost. This was the first time she was lost. The feeling of getting lost overwhelmed her, making her hand trembled slightly.
"I don\'t know Command will ask us to chase them." A loud husky voice came from the back.
"Yeah. Anyway, this is good. It would allow my GC and CPR to increased." A sweat voice replied.
The PAR turd their head and saw the Vulture Knights appearing on the sand dune with a smile that wasn\'t a smile. They trembled, their leg turned jelly while some fell on the ground, trembling. Their gaze lost the luster of hope. Their gaze only contained only a single thing. ABSOLUTE FEAR.
This wasn\'t a normal fear. Fear that would stick with you for the rest of your life. Fear that would gives nightmare. Fear that traumatized your every being. Every inches of your body, your hair, your blood, every single cells of your body feels it. It had been encoded into their DNA. In the face of Absolute Fear, your Will and Resolve means nothing. You can only do one thing…. SUBMIT. Submit to Absolute Fear. Because the Fear is… Absolute.
They don\'t know how deadly the troop in front of them was. However, they knew how deadly those in the back were. And they didn\'t want to feel the wrath of those demons. In a short of couple of seconds, more than half of the troop were sitting on the sand. They threw down their weapon, shivering and sweating from inside out. The thought of fighting didn\'t come to their mind. What was flickering in their mind was the thousand headless corpses of their friends and comrade.
When Lady Mata recovered from her thought, 80% of her troop had surrendered to fate, sitting on ground, looking lifelessly. Only a couple of men were standing, looking at her. She saw those sitting on the ground and didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry. However, a hint of sorrow appeared in her pupil. However, it quickly disappeared like it never appeared.
"If they are going to take us down. It won\'t be that easy…" She looked at the group of Vulture Knight in front her and shouted. "You\'ve won. However, I won\'t surrender. Send your men to fight with me. One vs one, battle to death."
The plain descended into a still silence. The wind blew the sand in the air. The scorching sun radiate on their skin. However, none of them care about the scorching heat. Everyone eyes were glue on Lady Mata and on both Vulture Knights. After a couple of minutes of silence. Lady Mata raised her brow, looking at the knights on both sides.
\'Are they scared….? Probably not.\' She shook har head.
Just when she was about to opened her mouth, a young man in his late twenties came out from the Knights in front. He stared at Lady Mata for a few seconds, before looking at the men standing.
"I she your leader." He asked no one in particular.
The people rolled their eyes, looked at each other and then back at Lady Mata. If she wasn\'t our leader, then why was she leading us. The people thought silently. Lady Mata didn\'t have any change in her expression. She looked at the young man and asked. "Who are you?"
"You don\'t need to know." The young man moved closer to Lady Mater. He stopped a couple of inches from Mata, staring straight in her eyes while the feint jasmine perfume drifted to his nose. He avert his eyes and looked at the people.
"Since none of you talk. I believe she\'s your leader." He announced, stepping past Mata "We won\'t fight with her first. But we will start from those of you standing. We Vulture are fair in our doing." He turned his head and glance at Mata before continuing. "If I point to you, you come and fight. You defeat our soldier you are safe to go. However, you know what we happen if you don\'t…" He creased his lips and a scary smile appeared on his face.
"Now, you have 2 seconds to come our if I point to you." He sauntered passed Lady Mata not looking back. Without talking a woman walked to the open space. The woman was in her later thirties. However, her slim and curvy body make her look like she was in her middle twenties.
"You" The young man looked back abruptly and pointed to a middle aged man.
Hmm!
"Me!?" The middle-aged man widened his eyes, not believing what was going on. Before he could process what going on. Everything went blank. What happened!? Gasped. All the PAR troop drop their jaw. The soldiers around the middle-aged man stumbled back quickly in trepidation. Everyone looked at the middle-age man on the ground, blood flooding our from his forehead. Deader than dead.
Lady Mata was furious. Her eyes turning red. She gnashed her teeth, gripping the two short knife beside her pants, ready to launch a deadly attack. "Don\'t do something stupid. You will have your time to fight to your heart content." The young man turned back and looked at Mata straight in the eyes. Without averting his gaze. He pointed to another PAR soldier.
"You"
Thud!
The soldier fell, not knowing how. Seeing the death another soldier. Lady Mata couldn\'t hold her fury any longer. She shouted, dashing toward the young man. "Coward. Fight with me if you dare."
In a swift motion, Lady Mata perfectly withdrew the two your knife from her side pocket, going for his neck. If the young man was normal. He would greet King Yama the next seconds. Alas…
Like a bird, the young man moves backward avoiding the attack by a couple of inches. He moves to the side, removing his hand from his rifle, using the back of his palm to slapped Lady Mata hand. Lady Mata hand trembled. She wanted to control her body, but under heavy momentum. She couldn\'t. Right after the palm attack. She saw something blurry past her chest. Boom!
Huh!
Lady Mata was sent flying in the air. it was like a bullet train hit her. Her organs changed position immediately. She dizzy for a seconds, A lump of blood rushed to her mouth. However, she control herself in the air and landed with a trembling leg. She forced herself and swallow the blood. She shook her head slightly before looking at the young man. Her emotion was tumor. She didn\'t know what to feel. Surprise, Fear, Anger. Everything rushed to her brain.
Meanwhile, all the PAR troop had their jaw dropped. This isn\'t happening. Just one palm attack send the powerful Iron lady flying. No. No. This is a dream. Lady Mata wasn\'t just any soldier of PAR. She was the first Female 4-star soldier. And her battle prowess competes with ordinary 5-star. In whole of Beta, only a single person could subdue her easily. But now…
It was not only the soldier that was flabbergasted. Everyone in Alpha and Beta that knew Lady Mata was shocked. They were shocked to their core. The previous battle prowess of the Vulture knights shocked them but not like this. She was a renown battle genius. Only a handy of people from the same generation could compare with her. But to defeat her easily like this. Probably none.
Seeing the dumbfounded gaze of the PAR soldier. The young man raised his brow and asked.
"Is it that shocking for me to defeat her?"
