Chapter 65: Royal Palace (Part 2)
Alvaric went completely berserk. No one could stop him. Nearly a hundred soldiers had already been killed by him alone. It even made the remaining soldiers hesitate to move forward. They didn’t want to die, but their duty was to protect the palace.
"Come on, you bastards!" Alvaric taunted.
He moved his finger. A second later, dozens of blood needles burst out. They floated in the air, and more and more appeared over time.
No one dared to move. Some soldiers even pushed each other, trying to get someone else to confront Alvaric instead.
"I’m all alone. Meanwhile, there are... more than a thousand of you. Why are you the ones trembling in fear? Aren’t you supposed to be the superior race that sees every other creature as a threat to be destroyed?" Alvaric mocked.
Skill-wise, Alvaric only had three abilities: Blood Domination, Enhanced Regeneration, and Shield Regeneration. He couldn’t use magic, except for manipulating his own blood. He didn’t wear any strong or expensive armor either. Alvaric was bare-chested, wearing only short pants.
Perhaps the most special thing about him was his two weapons: the Crimson Sword Demon and Vapper’s Dagger. Other than that, he looked just like an ordinary human. Yet no one dared to challenge him. He stood there alone.
"If that’s how it is, I’ll be the one to move forward!" Alvaric shouted.
He channeled Mana to the tips of his feet. With a strong stomp, Alvaric vanished. All the soldiers looked around in panic, their eyes darting in every direction, hoping they wouldn’t be the next target. Their bodies trembled, paralyzed by the fear of death.
"Aaaargh!" one soldier screamed.
All eyes turned toward the source of the scream. But Alvaric was no longer there. He appeared on the opposite side. A second later, another similar scream echoed from that direction.
