"AAAGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!"
Nux severed both his arms.
"Haaahhh…"
While Roone howled in agony, Nux sat down right next to him and exhaled deeply.
He was on his edge throughout the entire battle.
All the spars against Astaria, no matter how real they were, in the end, both he and Astaria knew they wouldn't kill each other.
No matter how much they try, it would never become a real battle.
As for the time with Amletus… well, it was not exactly a battle…
Therefore, this was Nux's first time actually fighting against an Emperor.
At first, he tried to sneak up and behead Roone, ending this in a single move, however, as an Emperor who was sensitive to Mana, Roone quickly noticed him and he had to change his attack.
Nux had a psychological advantage in this battle,
A King Stage Cultivator who was fighting against an Emperor.
He was an oddity, so Roone couldn't guess how powerful Nux actually was.
He had that element of mystery around him, which Nux tried to use as much as possible, by trying to act as calmly as he could. To the point that he was even ridiculing his enemy and was acting like everything was under his control.
Nux did have an advantage of speed, however, Roone's combat gear was too powerful. Roone just protected his neck, as for the rest of the body, the Armor did the job and none of Nux's attacks worked.
That was also the reason why Nux was trying to rile Roone up throughout the battle. He wanted him to make a mistake. He was looking for an opportunity to get rid of him as soon as he could. Roone, however, was much more careful than Nux thought.
Even though the man was reacting to Nux's every word, he didn't let his guard down even for a second, Nux had to give it to him, Roone was a lot better than most of the people he had fought before.
'I guess he isn't an Emperor for nothing…'
Nux thought inwardly as he glanced at Roone who was still wailing in agony.
'Heh. I got lucky.'
Suddenly, Nux laughed.
He would admit, he was in a tight spot there.
Even after weeks of practice with Astaria, defeating an Emperor is not something he could do easily as a King Stage Cultivator.
As the Mana Potion Nux drank starting showing effect, he quickly glanced in Astaria's direction.
She was still fighting against Herms and from the looks of it, she would need some time before the fight ends.
Of course, Nux wouldn't dare go and help her, he knew Astaria well, and she would kill him if he did something unnecessary.
That was her pride as a warrior.
'Do you need any help?' Nux used his telepathic connection and questioned.
'We are fine. Everything is under control.' Ember replied.
'It would be surprising if it wasn't under control.' Amaya commented.
'Once Astaria defeats Herms, we would force the Solid Earth Soldiers to surrender.
No more useless bloodshed is required.' Evane spoke with a solemn look as well.
When it came to the War without the Emperors, Nux and his women never doubted themselves.
The Skyfall Kingdom had the strongest army in the world, the Woods Dynasty was already on their side, not only that, but the upper echelons of the Skadi Kingdoms, all of them were their slaves as well.
The Solid Earth Kingdom never stood a chance.
The only thing they were worried about was the trump card that Herms was hiding and from the looks of it,
This so-called trump card was now in Nux's arms.
Thinking about all this, a smile appeared on Nux's face, and then he turned his face towards Roone, who was lying on the floor.
"Well Well Well, now isn't this quite an interesting turn of events?"
Nux commented.
Actually, Nux was aiming to get rid of Roone as soon as he could. Unlike his other enemies, Roone was an Emperor and was not someone he can play around with.
Nux knew that well and wasn't willing to take any unnecessary risks.
There was no better enemy than a dead enemy, that was what Nux believed.
However, there were certain instances when things changes.
Now, for example.
Roone wasn't able to use Mana now.
His Arms were severed.
Even a Mortal would be able to kill him. He was as good as dead.
Nux then crouched near Roone's face and grabbed his hair,
"Hmmmm."
Then, Nux started thinking.
He glanced at Roone's legs and,
"Well, just to be safe…"
Saying those words, Nux stood up and walked towards Roone's legs.
Roone's eyes widened in horror, for some reason, he knew what Nux was thinking about. He tried to use his remaining strength to try and run away, however, the moment he stood up, Nux kicked him from behind and then without giving him any chances,
*Slash* *Slash*
"AAAAGGghGGHHHhHHH!!"
He severed his legs below his knees.
"Hmmm, this would make sure you won't do something unnecessary, here, drink this, it will stop your bleeding.
I think."
Nux said and at the same time, he forced a Healing Potion into Roone's mouth.
It was scary how calm he was while doing all of this.
It was as if he was possessed by an emotionless demon…
Nux was usually an easy-to-go man… but this time…
Roone said some things he shouldn't have said…
And Nux didn't forget any of that.
Nux then pulled Roone's hair and lifted his head, lifting his head in air, Nux spoke with a demonic smile on his face.
"There are quite a lot of things we have to talk about.
I am sure this would be an exciting conversation."
"AGGGHhGGGHHhHHH!!"
Even though Nux didn't even do anything yet, Roone shouted in fear.
He wanted to alert his father, but for some reason, seeing him acting like that, Nux just smiled.
"Don't bother, he wouldn't be able to listen to your screams. It's a little magic trick of mine."
At the same time, he picked one of the Roone's severed arms and Black Mist came out of Nux's hand.
The Mist surrounded Roone's arm however, a few seconds later, Nux just snorted and threw the arm away.
'Tsk, it is still not working.' Nux shook his head in disappointment,
"Anyways,"
He then turned towards Roone and questioned,
"So? What did you say again?
You wanted to see us beg in front of you?
No no, you actually graciously allowed a few of my wives to become your concubines, right, I remember that…"
Nux nodded to himself as he looked into Roone's eyes.
Roone's body trembled.
This…
This was going to get a little painful for the Emperor.
*Slash* *Slash*
