Chapter 953: THE FINAL BATTLE (19)
It was tricky when you have to fight a mind controller, not to mention the skillful one. But, for the note this was not the first time Lou had a face off with a mind controller.
Yes, they were pain in the ass, but there was a way to take them down if you were careful enough.
Red light came chasing down Gedam when Lou started attacked him, it destroyed a stone when the light hit it. The damage was unthinkable if it really hit you.
But, Gedam was agile enough to dodge everything, he moved around and got two beasts to attack Lou, which made the merchant had to kill one of them and restrain the other. It was not a good feeling to kill your comrade, but then it was either he had to kill them or he was the one, who would be killed.
They danced in this fight for a while, until Lou had enough of it and put fire around him, trapped him in this circle of flames, which ready to burn him down.
"Do you really think you have gotten me?!" Gedam shouted. "Watch this!"
Lou shouldn’t have looked at him, technically he didn’t, because all he could see was his reflection on the flames, but apparently, for someone as expert as Gedam, it was enough. Lou fell into his trick,
But, this was not like anything that he knew about the mind controller, because instead of controlling him, Lou fell into an illusion. This was a scene that he was very familiar with, the scene from his deepest nightmare.
"Fuck..." Lou cursed grimly when he was forced to witness how his mother died. She was known to be witch at the time where being a magic user was a sin in Karam continent.
But, what messed Lou up so much was; his mother was the last witch that the Karam people killed officially, because after that, change happened and they started to open up with the magic users.
Lou remembered the day before his mother’s execution, she told him how much she loved him. How he had to survive and not to use his magic.
