"Now, surrender and I'll make it quick," Draco said as he rose in the air, causing his robes to flutter.
"Sonyia, I think you should get serious now or we will both get killed," the Human King said casually.
"Sure, do you have any plan in that pretty head of yours?" Sonyia said as she received a telepathic message from the Human King.
"You are insane," Sonyia said without taking her eyes off Draco, who was beginning to get irritated. He couldn't believe that the weaklings in front of him still thought that somehow they could make it out alive and possibly make away with his water.
"If you are thinking of moving the water…" Draco said but saw the Human King appearing in front of him with his hands stretched out. In the next instant, dark roots from Sonyia engulfed the Human King like a suit of armour as he began to weave weird hand signs.
"What! How do you know that?!" Draco asked in annoyance as his human figure was forcefully transformed into that of his draconic form.
Startled by the surprise, the Human King did not let that chance go to waste as he opened a large portal and many souls who were fighting in battle far, far away poured themselves on Draco, including dark giants.
"Now!" the Human King screamed as he turned to the lake along with Sonyia, who opened a passage to the space in the void they once were at the centre of the water. It didn't even take up to a second for Draco to burn and absorb all the souls thrown in his face as he sent an invisible claw slash that divided the Human King and cracked open the void opened by the both of them as the water fell back in place but the slash kept travelling, ripping space and the matter in its path.
"You did well to hold me back for half a second. That technique, where did you learn it?" Draco asked as he transformed back to his humanoid shape.
"Wait… who is inside my pool? Is that a root? Tch, a hell warden is coming," Draco sighed as he left the Human King on the floor.
"How did he sense Maria? She should be virtually undetectable once out of sight. I even made sure not to place a bond seal on her to ensure no trace or leaks from my aura could be used to track her. Even I can't track her!" The Human King said as Draco came back infuriated.
'She is only with me because my goals overlap hers and I could bring it to fruition faster than her doing it alone. She needs me more than I need her.' The Human King thought as he healed himself slowly enough to be unnoticeable.
"How does she own a treasure like that?" Draco asked the duo before him as terror could be seen on their faces.
"She used an item that shielded her from my attacks and sent her presence to multiple locations when I tried to sense her. That treasure is enough to grant you a safe escape from the candidates themselves," Draco explained but got no answer or confirmation from his opponents. In the next instant, the Human King and Sonyia burst into nothingness due to his heavy presence weighing on their very souls.
"That Human King is tricky, it wasn't even his soul that was here but he managed to fool his comrades. And that girl is still here and not dead… don't tell me she is in that root that made it to my lake? Smart she used the substituted the root in my water with herself." Draco asked as anger filled his mind.
"I will search the ends of hell even though it makes me look bad like a senior picking on his juniors. I cannot accept this humiliation!" Draco said as he turned to the lake but released another sigh.
"There's nothing to see here," Draco said without turning back but was speaking to something that had yet to appear before him.
"Oh really? Over a million souls just vanished like that?" a child with little wings at its back asked while holding a book.
"You act like that's a number. Those souls can't even heal a paper-cut wound on my soul," Draco said without turning as he saw the root underwater falling into a crack in space and vanishing.
"I will find you," Draco said under his breath.
'That Human King really thought this far ahead, moving an entire battlefield here in an instant which would get the attention of the hell warden in that area since that hell warden is especially sadistic,' Draco thought as he turned to find a flying baby smiling at him.
Fred, at that point, finished what he had to do and the protection ward around him crumbled, revealing a man with a black buttoned-down shirt with fitting black pants, a diamond bracelet, and black shoes with clean-shaven facial hair and a fresh cut.
"Did you waste those souls on a fashion choice?" Draco asked in confusion.
"It's either this or watch me walk around naked. You like that, don't you? Don't be shy, I like me too," Fred said with a shrug.
"What the? You are one of those that came here with a body?" the flying baby asked.
"Oh my… Draco, you didn't tell me you had a kid. My goodness, it looks like it was born here," Fred looked surprised as he walked closer to Draco and the baby who was high in the sky.
"THAT IS NOT MY…" Draco shouted, causing a tidal wave in the water below.
"Wait a minute," Fred asked as he looked at the baby seriously.
"Finally, he can stop joking around since he knows who this is."
"Is there child support? In hell? What kind of sick…?" Fred said as Draco slapped his face.
"Is he one of your bastards?" Fred asked carefully, but that question had struck a nerve in the flying baby as it dived towards Fred at blinding speeds.
"Whoa there. I don't babysit for free, Draco. I mean we are friends but…" Fred said as he caught the baby in a cradle position.
"Now why don't you do something for me, eh, you little hell warden?" Fred asked as he looked at the baby with a serious expression that made it swallow.
