Chapter 42
Title: The Palace Invasion (part 2)
….
I kicked Pitou away, to stop her from interfering. Her body flies away at breakneck speeds.
I mean even at my level, if she interferes in a battle, it is likely to interrupt my fighting rhythm and even I am likely to get killed by the king because of that. This battle isn't something where I am absolutely sure of winning with interference.
These actions all happened in less than a second.
….
Me, Netero and Zeno all graciously land on the ground. In a split second, we all use EN, to try and sense the King's location. I notice that Pitou is trying to sense the location too as she used EN also.
Immediately we all sense where the king is… he is at one of the towers, holding someone injured in his arms.
We all calmly walk towards the tower, the first thing I see is as expected… everything is going to plan up till now. I don't take action, because this isn't the best time, even though I will most likely be able to kill the king in seconds if I attack right now.
But unlike me, who has a logical reason to not interfere, I see that Zeno and Netero can't help but not interfere in the scene in front of them.
The King… is in front of them, he is holding the girl Komugi in his arms, as she bleeds from her side as they are both surrounded by a wrecked tower. The King's state of mind can easily be told by the erratic way his Aura moves. They stopped at this was mostly due to the girl (Komugi) splattered in blood from an injury on her side. The second reason that they stopped was due to the grotesque creature (the king) embracing Komugi's body full of unmistakable tenderness.
If I was them, right now would be the best time for an all out attack, especially since a little cat will arrive soon.
*fwosh*
Suddenly out of the window Pitou arrives, she looks at Meruem and then at me. I notice that she hasn't even bothered to heal herself from my attack, she even has blood continuously coming out of her mouth. Talk about dumb dedication to a king huh…
The king's expression soon returns to normal, but I did notice that Pitou's anxiety heightened, as the king just looks at her and says. "Pitou…"
When she hears her name called, Pitou just looks at the king and says. "Yes, your majesty." Expecting the king's orders.
The king just said in a compelling voice. "Heal Komugi… I am counting on you."
I see that Pitou immediately moves as soon as the King says that. She even has tears of joy, probably from some stupid sense of accomplishments. Sheesh, doesn't she know that her king was dumb enough to spend too much time playing games and didn't investigate humanity's power. I mean a litterall Hoogle (this worlds Google) search will tell you what Humanity's strongest weapon is.
Also at this time Zeno and Netero seem to just be standing by not doing anything. So I take the initiative by asking with a serious look on my face. "Ant King, shall you change your location… it would be beneficial for all of us."
The King doesn't say a word about this… but he just nods.
At this exact time Pitou released her ability.
{DOCTOR BLYTHE}
For that split second Zeno and Netero were distracted by it… that is all the King needed as he just simply walked passed through both of them. Before they even noticed, Meruem could have killed both of them in that split second when they were distracted, but he didn't, it was mostly a show of respect to them too, as they didn't attack when he was holding Komugi.
But contrary to the old men, I just looked the King straight in the eyes. I smiled at him, I got no reaction in return as I just walked outside too… Zeno made a Nen dragon for Netero and the King to use it to travel to the fighting place. Zeno also made sure to keep his Aura extremely neutral as he did so.
And so… the king flies away with Netero. Zeno stays behind, I just look at Pitou healing Komugi. I walk towards them, Pitou immediately takes the protective position over Komugi. Even though she is forced into a state of Zetsu due to her Nen Ability having that condition for activation.
I just walk so close to her that I am only one meter away and say. "You are still an enemy so don't resist this or I will kill you and the girl."
I conjure a thin needle, which is almost unseen by the normal eye and I casually throw the needle towards her forehead.
*fwosh*
It pierces Pitou's forehead without problem, even though Pitou has a nervous look on her face with sweat on her forehead and rigid limbs.
I just yawned at this, and started walking away, leaving behind a slightly confused Pitou.
When outside I see that Zeno is still here so I ask. "What are you gonna do next."
Zeno just looks at me. "I finished my job of separating the king from his royal guards, I have completed my part of the contract."
I just shrug my shoulders at his answer and I start walking away. "Well I guess I will hunt some ants now that I don't have anything better to do."
I use my EN for a split second again and sense Gon and Killua running around towards Pitou. Morel trapped Pouf with his Smoky Jail. Knuckle has also used his ability against Youpi. Shoot and Knucke seem to be having some problems, but whatever.
Hmmm… well not my problem…
….
(49 minutes later)
-General POV-
*Fwosh*
Jax kills even more Chimera Ants as he casually strolls around the castle.
'445.' Thinks Jax, counting the Chimera Ants killed by him. He has already exterminated most of them already. There are only a couple of them who might be hiding underground or flying high in the sky.
Jax uses EN again, spreading his Aura in a perfect circular motion, sensing eveinside if it.
'Hmmm… so Gon and Pitou went away' Think Jax as he just goes towards the tower where a confused Komugi is. Just sitting around and scared.
….
Jax arrives at the tower at his top speed just a second later. When Komugi hears this she asks around. "S -Supreme Leader… i -is that you."
Jax doesn't answer her at all. Talking with her anymore would be useless.
Komugi asks again. "Sup-"
*fwosh*
Jax disappears in a flash and… before she can finish. Komugi's head flies off, and it is caught by Jax as her neck spouts out blood and falls off like a puppet with its strings cut off. Her body lays there dying, with her last thoughts being about the Supreme Leader… which she didn't even know the name of.
….
On the other side, in a tomb, Meruem who has his full concentration fighting Netero and getting hit repeatedly. Suddenly he feels a heaviness in his heart.
'What is this feeling.' Thinks the King as he is hit by another one of Netero's attacks.
...…..
AUTHOR NOTE:
Jax killed Komugi.😭😭😭
But it wasn't out of nowhere he has a reason for it. We will see why in the future.
