Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 182: Play For Power (IV): Faceoff

16 HOURS LATER

The third trial had taken quite a turn, and while Rezar had escaped from the group of deviants or whatever the hell they could be called, the same could not be said for many of the other competitors. While Rezar kept on running, till he found a place that was well hidden and completely out of the way, Durga and the others have been killing those of the competitors that couldn't fall behind their agenda, while incapacitating those they felt were important and could be used as bargaining chips. From the look of things, the third trial would be over a lot earlier than the three days that was allocated to it.

The barrier shrunk faster the more people were killed or eliminated from the game. And the funny thing was, once someone was considered out of the game either from an injury or from being killed, the barrier doesn't affect them in any way at all. No one could give up, so everyone had to fight or break your own arm and leg to be considered incapacitated. Never the less with how quickly the barrier shrunk, the number of competitors had been completely whittled down to Rezar and a single snow elf. Now in retrospect these two should probably team up to stand against their foes, but. everyone within this valley was prey to Rezar, it didn't matter if it was Durga and his posse, or any other competitor, they were all just prey.

The barrier had shrunk enough that it could be seen in every direction, and so far it had driven everyone to another lake in the valley, however this one was smaller and had a stone platform in its middle with a land bridge that led to its middle. The snow elf burst out of the tree line, heading for the stone platform and the obvious arch that was right in the middle of it, the snow elf was frantic and rightly so as Durga, the tiger man and the orc woman were right on his tail and hot on his heels. The show elf stumbled, scrapping his palm raw as the sword he held fell out of his hands and over the stone bridge into the lake below causing a ripple in the otherwise pristine waters.

Durga and the tiger man were focused solely on the snow elf in front of them, the orc woman on the other hand was looking around with a frantic and somewhat manic look as she looked every which way for a sign of the one who had ruined her life. But even with the barrier just ten meters behind them and not within the bounds of the forest, Rezar was nowhere to be seen, which is to say he was either already dead or incapacitated. She didn't like that, she didn't even want to think of a world where Rezar Deathwind would get away without a chance for her to facilitate her revenge, it almost drove her insane as she looked at the barrier, sorely tempted to go back in there and look for that bastard.

As for the snow elf he knew there was nowhere left to run, and the arch that served as a teleportation device would not activate until there was literally just a single winner left. He turned to look at Durga and the tiger man drawing closer to him. He was tired and bloodied and very frustrated at his inability to do anything, and even more so now that the sun had set. Orcs and some species of elves like snow elves didn't have as good an eyesight at night, in a battle that didn't matter much to the orcs as all they had to do was stay away from their comrades and smash everything in their path.

The barrier was even giving off a light, but the tiger man was in his element here. These two were well above him in strength, they were equal in speed, maybe he was a little bit above them. but he was a mage not a fighter, and these guys were fighters with access to their skills, so he was fucked in more ways than one. Durga took a step forward his hand on his axe with a rather ugly grin on his face.

"Trihi! The snow elf prince, half-brother to my sweet daughter Tepetal. So young, but so useless. What made you think you can come down all the way from your perch on top of the Breone mountains and come rule a race vastly superior to you pale skinned freaks! I can't kill you, you're a very important political tool, but I'll take great pleasure ripping your bloody arms and legs from your body, don't worry the orcs have a way to make a limbless person survive. And when we've conquered all of Bahrenburg, I will let you watch as I take the body of your mother and sister at the same time right in front of you, over and over again as their juices coats the corpses of everyone and everything you love."

"Oh! Is that so?" that voice brought chills to the spine of both Durga and the tiger man and lit a blaze of fury in the eyes of the orc woman. The snow elf price was even more afraid, the voice came from behind him, and compared to the guy behind him, Durga and the tiger man were Childs play. He swallowed hard as his body stiffened, Rezar's breathe was right on the nape of his neck, causing his heart to pound even faster as he lost control of his bladder.

"Don't worry Jack Frost this would only hurt for a second."

And that's when he felt the pain of fangs being pierced into his neck, his body shook as he felt all of his blood rush towards that point in his neck. Scary as it should have been, after the first second it was just extremely blissful, a high he couldn't understand or comprehend but he felt extremely addicted to. His body shook as it was rocked by a climax the likes of which he had never felt before in his life, and following close behind it was a darkness that he happily embraced. His body was softly led to the ground by Rezar, almost as if he was helping a lover relax. Then he got up just in time to catch an arrow flying towards his skull.

"Now. where were we."
