Capítulo 190: New King on the block...

The two Kings stare at Reima, his form glowing an forboding green from the turquoise flames covering his sword. Usually they'd just try and destroy the insect that had intruded in their domain but something about the flames cause a primal sense of fear. Nevertheless they return to their humanity induced rage and start floating towards him again, intent on bisecting him.

Reima jumps and twists, barely dodging the low and high slashes directed at him, once back on the ground he rolls towards the nearest king while performing a WindFall dodge, slowing the flurry of strikes down slightly. This gives Reima enough time to try deal some damage against the nearest king.

Approaching and slashing the scales a couple times before backing away to see if it had any effect causes him to frown... That is until trails of Turquoise fire seem to explode forth from the front and the back of the king, he doesn't have time to admire his work as the king behind him tries to crush him with a downward slash. He tries to dodge but is hit by the jagged blade regardless, recieving a large bloody gash on his chest, ignoring this Reima continues slashing the injured King while trying to put it between him and the other one that'd managed to land a strike on him. The many lines of green fire continue to cover the body of the king, Reima expects them to spread throughout the rest of it's body but the fire doesn't act how he expects... Instead the attacks seem to be phasing through the king, seemingly ignoring he armoured scales and continuing out the back of the king, the damage definitely adds up as it bursts into white particles and fades away as the other king glares ferociously at him. It raises it's sword and a huge torrent of dark orbs are launched towards him, quickly he prepares to receive them and starts batting them away, making them instantly fade away on constant with the Turquoise flames. He throws a Fireball more as a distraction than anything before sprinting towards the king, only to be stopped as another materialises in-front of him... This does nothing but give him a closer target as he starts peppering the third king with more devastating slashes. A quick stab makes green fire explode from the back of the king, looking like a fiery exit wound from a bullet, the king tries to fend him off with the assistance of it's ally but isn't fast or skilled enough to stop the assault.

Again, another burst into white particles leaving two more Kings left to defeat. The second king who'd watched him butcher the first and third breaths in deeply before spewing a thick black fog at him. This unorthodox attack surprises Reima enough to where he's unable to completely escape it, his left arm gets clipped by it and the flesh immediately starts rotting off, in extreme pain Reima waves his fiery blade at the fog unfortunately causing it to ignite and explode in his face, launching him a couple meters away. He quickly staggers to his feet, having no feeling in his now completely black left arm, he doesn't dare let go of his sword to reach for some Estus for fear of losing his weapon in the hectic battle. He glares at the quickly approaching second King and hears something shimmering behind him, recognising this sound he turns and sprints towards the rapidly materialising fourth King to put it between himself and angry Second king. It seems they don't have much awareness as they first appear which helps Reima loop around and start attacking it's back, his strikes dealing a good amount of damage despite his limp left arm not assisting them.

Sweat beads down his face as he tries for the final blow against the Fourth King, he channels Armament Haki into his arm and unleashes the heaviest slash he can manage, this causes a line of green fire to bisect the King from his abdomen and below, killing it instantly. Reima staggers after performing such a strong attack and isn't able to dodge the angry attack from the last remaining king, his sword stops him being cut in two but he was still heavily injured from the attack, his left arm fizzles away as the abyss eats it, thankfully the Covenant of Artorias ring was equipped on his right hand, otherwise the battle would be finished. He coughs up some blood from the injury to his left lung, apparently nicked by the Kings blade but stands up straight regardless of the sharp pain making every action difficult.

The King brings attempts another attack and Reima doesn't think himself capable of dodging it, he allows his Folded Space to deposit Havel's shield before him and pushing against it with his left shoulder. The shield negates most of the impact but the force is still very painful on his beaten and battered body, he doesn't know how long he's got until he bleeds out so he quickly stores the shield and sprints with all his might towards the last king who's recovering from his last attack. Reima channels the last of his willpower into his legs causing the black armour from his Armament Haki to appear, the king tries to back away from Reima but isn't fast enough as his sword pierces through the scales on it's chest and through it's heart, causing another explosion of green flames to explode out of it's back, they quickly subside showing it's blown out back and revealing the hollow insides where it's heart had used to reside. The King gives a final roar before fading away into White particles, Reima drops to the ground and falls onto his back, feeling extremely weak and lethargic but still scrabbling to retrieve his Estus flask. Once he gets a hold of it he dumps the entire contents into his open mouth, not worrying about the small amount trailing down the sides of his face. He feels the injury to his internal organs begin to heal but it's not enough yet, luckily he spots the familiar glow of a bonfire nearby and starts dragging himself towards it.
