章 546: Halmut Unscathed?

"Come on, Skaryn! You'll have to be quicker than that!" Halmut laughed, dropping one pillar of light after another. At the same time, Halmut was rushing Skaryn physically to keep him overwhelmed. "You can defend your homeland or yourself. Make your choice!"

"You dare harm innocents for--" 

"I don't care bout Kartonia, Skaryn. I'm destined to rule more planets than I can count, far beyond the scope of what Kartonia has to offer me," reasoned Halmut, not letting up at all. "If it meant my entrance to the rest of the universe, then I'd erase all of Kartonia in heartbeat. And though I don't need to be so forceful with the rest of the world, it's the best choice when dealing with you."

"Why seek your own death!" Skaryn shouted, retrieving matching greatswords. The metal used to cast them was pitch-black but four different colored crystals were embedded within the handguard, designed similarly to brass knuckles.
