Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 293: Geo-Core (IX): The Dance Begins

Rezar took slow definite steps on the pathway that led to as the Geo-core had put it; the ring. But it was better to call it a platform than a ring considering the absence of ropes and whatnot. But be that as it may, this was still a well-made and well detailed 'platform' to kill a bloody elf queen.

There were intricate designs etched all over the surface of the platform, it was a multitude of colors, that crisscrossed and interlocked with each other to create an extremely beautiful pattern that when looked at for a very long time, could someone dizziness due to how disorganized but beautiful it was.

He took a deep breath as raised his head up. Making sure to step onto the platform properly. The moment he stepped onto it a barrier of sorts rose up behind him, effectively blocking his path backwards. There were a total of six pathways with three of them in direction he just came from, and the other three in the direction of the snow queen. They all led to different entrances, but never the less only two was in use.

His path back has been cut off, so he couldn't get any help. Never the less the snow queen moved forwards, however she didn't move ahead alone as three other snow elves arrived on top of the platform along with her. Rezar raised an eyebrow at the current development, he raised his head up as he heard Lenore complaining loudly.

"but that's not fair! Isn't this fight between the queen and the king, why did you allow helpers for the snow elf queen and not for the king. Was this all a trap?" she asked with an accusatory tone, lightning already beginning to spark off her body.

"Quiet wench! You should be quiet when your betters are making moves." One of the snow elf followers, a male snow elf holding onto an ornately crafted silver staff growled out, causing Rezar to raise his other eyebrow in surprise as he agreed within himself to kill that guy first.

[I SAID THAT THE FIGHT IS BETWEEN THE KING AND QUEEN, AND THEY ARE FREE TO UTILIZE ANY RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO THEM IN ORDER TO WIN, INCLUSIVE OF THE PEOPLE WHO SERVE AND FOLLOW THEM. THE SNOW ELF QUEEN JUST CHOSE TO UTLIZE HER TOOLS AS I'M SURE THE KING OF MORTE BIANCA WOULD ALSO DO.]

"But that's not fair! How was he supposed to know that- "Rezar swiftly raised his right arm up bringing an end to Lenore's Tirade. He shook his head with a mirthful smile as he turned to her and said loud enough for everyone to hear.

"What's all the fuss about, you know there's no way in hell I'm going to lose here. Simmer down love, let daddy do all the work." Rezar said as he levied his gaze on the snow elf queen and her retinue.

"You sound awfully confident flor a child who is outnumbered 4 to 1, and soon to be dead." The snow elf queen said to Rezar as she pulled out a pair of dual daggers. Before raising them up to her lips and licking them both in an extremely sultry and nerve jarring fashion as they made clean cuts on her tongue. But she smiled and swallowed, showing her bloodied teeth and exposing a hint of her madness to Rezar.

"It's not a matter of being confident, I just understand facts and reality. And the reality of this scenario is that... you are all going to die!"

And with that said Rezar shot forwards, his form a blur as he crossed the distance between him and the snow elves to appear in front of the queen, swinging Vita Gratia in its dual khopesh from left to right and right to left to spilt her into a couple of pieces. The queen spread her daggers out, intercepting Rezar's strikes as a halberd came swing for his neck.

He dodged down with his blades still keeping the Queen's occupied. The halberd missed, but his legs were frozen solid to the ground, courtesy of the elf with the staff who had used a binding spell. But Rezar wasn't so worried about that as the snow elf queen sent a knee flying for the middle of his face. Rezar opened his mouth wide and bit down on her thighs, making sure his exposed fangs pierced through, however he met a wall of obstruction and was unable to sink his fangs into her pale succulent thighs.

He felt something wrap around his neck as the queen rushed backwards, flustered and caught off guard by Rezar almost sinking his teeth into her body. He felt the rope around his neck yanked backwards as his trapped legs were forcefully ripped from the ice that kept them bound and he was thrown into the air until his back smashed hard into the barrier that bow surrounded the entire ring. He felt while they heard his neck crack, but rather than fall in a heap to the ground, Rezar landed on his feet, going down to his knees a bit with his head bent backwards at an awkward angle.

They watched with a steeled gaze as Rezar made his way back up to a standing position, as his neck snapped forward loudly. Back in place with Rezar not looking any worse for wear. He moved his neck from the left to the right, rubbed it with the hilts of Vita Gratia a little before letting out a jovial smile.

"That was round one, now let's go ahead and dive in to round two."

[Spectral Skull]

[Mana Charge]

Three purple skulls with a greenish tinge to their smoky outlines appeared around Rezar as a dull blue glow seemed to suffuse his body. Two of the skulls shot forwards as the staff wielding snow elf mage raised a transparent ice barrier to defend against the attack of the incoming spectral skulls. Rezar followed behind, with the last skull orbiting around him like a satellite around a planet, the spectral skulls made contact with the ice barrier.

Rezar had a sinister smile on his face as he knew that barrier would be unable to stop those skulls. There were not attacks that caused physical damage. Their composition itself was that of ghosts, unlike the old world where this ice barrier skill would have intercepted this attack, right now where the rules or reality has changed, it would be beyond foolish to think a physical barrier would stop a pair of ghosts.

Both spectral skulls suddenly deviated from their target of the queen just before they crossed the barrier and went after the staff wielding elf. It was completely unexpected as they both sank into his body one after the other, causing his form to spasm and shake in a manner of someone who was being shocked with electricity or something similar. But with each spasm, he spat out a mouthful of blood as he began to bleed from his eyes, ears and nose, before falling to his knees wheezing loudly as he took deep labored breaths.

It was definitely a shocking turn of events that for just a fraction of a second took a few eyes of Rezar. That was a mistake as he shot forwards the left blade of Vita Gratia to the mage. However, the snow elf wielding the halberd reacted on time to deflect it, but Vita Gratia had two blades.

The second sank into his chest, just beneath his collar bone. Moving forward until it burst out his back and then arched itself upwards with its chain clinking like it was alive and had a mind of its own. And then they watched as his body began to desiccate and dry up rapidly, courtesy of Vita Gratia drinking up his blood and essence. Within seconds he had turned to dust and the blade and chains retracted until once again Rezar was holding on to both Khopesh. He stood in front of them with a smile, the final skull, suspiciously missing.

"If he knew better he would never have called my queen to be a wench. Now let me just be straight an honest with you guys. It would be incredibly stupid if you hold back and underestimate me, cause if you do that then you're going to end up like your friend, if not a whole lot worse. So give me all you've got." Rezar said with a smile as he twirled both his blades' and moved back a bit to give them some distance. The snow elf queen said nothing, all she did was hold her daggers wide and begin to screech.

"Krikikikikikikikikiki!"

It was the sound you heard when ice was being crushed or chewed. It was extremely nerve wracking as a snow storm was seemingly whipped up within the confines of the ring. Rezar was not so sure what was going on, but he got an answer quickly enough as the queen and her remaining two retainers morphed into massive ice genie like creatures. They were at least three feet tall, and each held the same weapons they were using if only larger.

The snow storm picked up speed as they shifted their chilly bright blue gaze onto a completely shocked Rezar as a transformation like this wasn't what he expected. And to make matters worse, he could feel the temperature beginning to drop, and he was being affected by it as ice slowly began to creep up his body. He looked up with a smile and said to the now monsterfied form of the queen.

"I guess I have to get serious too. Very well then, I'll play with you guys a bit, and then I'll end it. Painfully!"
