Chapter 90: The Mob Arrived

Crystet blindly rushed towards Aaron, only thinking about one thing. Killing him. He was blind to the world around him, and his vision had become tunnelled, letting only Aaron through. A strange thing, considering his massive eyes, but it was unimportant what his eyes looked like right now.

He tried to attack Aaron using a spear of ice, but it just crashed into Aaron's sword and shattered. Aaron took this opportunity to run towards Crystet and hit him with the flat part of his blade. His goal wasn't to kill the pair as quickly as possible. His goal was to get as much satisfaction from this as possible.

Crystet was hit by the blade and went flying across the room, slamming into the wall. He began swearing in pain, as he felt a shard of wall stab into his back, like a sword. It was a little design Aaron had made inside the building. If the outside or inner layer of the castle were to break, there would be spikes inside to catch, damage and kill people. A nasty little double-edged sword, as if Aaron was caught in that, he'd be in quite a spot of bother.

Ray took advantage of the situation and rushed towards Aaron with the sword that killed Sciat. The blood on the sword was only somewhat dry, so small drops of it dripped behind him as he ran. Aaron turned towards Ray in an attempt to stop the sword using his hands. He clasped his hands around the blade, but it slipped through his hands, stabbing him in the chest, eliciting a surprised reaction out of him. Ray thought he had won, but Aaron let out a devilish smile, as he snapped the sword in half using his Boundless Telekinesis. Ray looked at his sword in complete shock, as he didn't bring a spare one. He had to resort to using Ki Techniques once again.

As Crystet was getting off of the spikes, Ray activated his Electric-Type Ki, sending out a discharge of electricity, almost like a shockwave. It hit Aaron with surprising force, sending him flying back into his throne, snapping it in half. He stood up and looked at. The broken throne, and put on a mock angry voice.

"Oh, look what you did! You broke the damn throne!" He yelled to Ray, who just disregarded what he said. Ray was in the middle of charging up electricity so that he could throw more powerful punches, while Aaron was using this as a distraction. He was trying to see what they would do next.

However, before he could make a move, he felt an impact in his rib area. Crystet had rushed up beside him while he was focused on Ray, and had just punched him in the ribs. His fist was also covered in ice, but that only added coldness to the attack. It wasn't like Aaron felt any pain.

Aaron feels no pain, while Crystet does. Just clearing that up now.

Aaron slammed into the wall to his left, having his body impaled by the spikes he had placed himself. He tried to quickly pull himself off of them, but he simply wasn't able to. Crystet helped him with that, however, by forcefully ripping Aaron off of them. Parts of his flesh were ripped off of his body, staying on the spikes, revealing himself to be completely black on the inside. All of his flesh was truly black. New flesh began to form in the empty spaces, so he wasn't permanently crippled.

Aaron used his strength to Tey and push his way out of Crystet's grasp, but since Crystet was corrupted by hatred, he is much stronger, physically, than somebody with no emotional corruption, like Aaron. Aaron wasn't able to escape by his normal strength, so he decided to do something which people back on earth would have called a 'Pro Gamer mover'. He used his Boundless Telekinesis to teleport out of Crystet's grasp and then teleported close enough to kick Crystet in the face. He continuously kept teleporting and kicking Crystet for about ten seconds, before delivering a kick strong enough to send him flying across the throne room.

While Aaron was looking at Crystet flying away, Ray rushed up behind him, and shoved his hand into Aaron's back, while activating an electrical pulse from his hand. Aaron was sent into a brief shock, which allowed Ray to create another discharge of electricity, pushing Aaron against the floor this time.

Aaron had no choice but to teleport away from the barrier of electricity, with a smile on his face. He had an idea to use the castle to his advantage. He placed his hand on the floor and sent corruption through it. Since the floor was black, you wouldn't have been able to notice the black streak targeting Ray from any distance. Ray looked down at his feet and saw a spike shoving up through it. He pulled his foot off, pulling off some flesh and muscle in the progress. He could barely move, except for hobbling.

Both Crystet and Ray were temporarily incapacitated, so Aaron thought he was going to be bored until they got better, but no, he was about to have even more fun with this crowd. A mob of people were outside the castle. They had read the message stating that the king was dead, and they had come to help defeat the monster who killed him. He could just BARELY see his parents in the crowd of people. He was surprised they hadn't died.

"Well, look what we have here! A group of people coming to fight little old me!" Aaron happily stated in a mocking tone, as if he expected them all to die in an instant.

"No...don't tell me...you plan to kill them too?" Ray asked, as his breath became somewhat distorted. He was too busy trying his hardest not to cry and scream at the pain he was feeling.

"Oh, I plan to, Ray. After all, when the mob arrives, they better have arrived prepared."
