He then grabbed Alcimus's arm and started slamming him on the ground multiple times, treating him like nothing but a rag doll.
"Khhkkkhkk!!"
Alcimus groaned in pain.
He was completely helpless in front of Nawdren.
Astaria tried to help him as well, however, Nawdren was simply using Alcimus's body like a weapon and was swinging him around, forcing Astaria to step back.
She couldn't even swing her sword because if she did, the one who would get hurt would be Alcimus.
Of course, she didn't really care about this old man, however, the problem was, if she attacked, her sword would pierce Alcimus's body, making it unusable for a few seconds, and those few seconds would be enough for Nawdren to end this battle.
"Khhoocckkkk!!"
Alcimus continued to groan in pain as Nawdren continued to slam him onto the ground.
"Yo- fucking bas-KhhHhkkh!"
Alcimus tried to kick Nawdren in order to get away from him, Nawdren, however, simply changed the direction he was throwing him into and completely blocked his momentum.
The scene was similar to a child 'wrestling' with his stuffed toy. Of course, Alcimus was the stuffed toy here.
'This cannot go on…'
Astaria, who was witnessing this scene thought with a solemn look on her face.
She glanced at Nux, who was still lying on the floor.
Their eyes met and Nux nodded at her.
Astaria nodded back.
The plan was clear.
Nux's [Regeneration] has already kicked in, combined with the Health Potion he had drank, his spine was pretty much healed now…
Just a few more minutes, and he would be able to fight back.
Astaria just needed to hold this man for a few more minutes.
What after Nux gets up?
Well, to be honest, both Astaria nor Nux didn't know.
They would team up with Alcimus and try to defeat Nawdren, however, with how things are currently happening,
Astaria doubted they would be able to win.
Nawdren was just too strong.
And with how he was currently playing around with Alcimus… Astaria doubted he would be able to fight with them…
Astaria glanced at Nux again and her expression changed.
Regret.
That man was a King Stage Cultivator who was capable of fighting against an Emperor… if he was an Emperor… then maybe… maybe he could have defeated Nawdren…
If only she had not initiated this stupid challenge and had given into Nux's advance…
Not only Nux, but even his wives would have also become an Emperor.
Nawdren may be strong, but in front of 11 Emperors… even he would have been helpless…
Astaria's eyes turned moist as she thought about all this.
Nux noticed that expression on Astaria's face and seeing the strongest human breaking down right in front of his eyes, Nux clenched his fist in anger.
Helplessness…
This was his first time feeling so helpless…
It was as if all that training he has been through… all of that was for naught.
'FUCK!!'
Nux cursed inwardly.
He was about to stand up, getting ready to attack Nawdren, ending this, even if it cost him his life, but suddenly,
"Father!!"
Suddenly, a man rushed towards the battlefield, and seeing the state Alcimus was in, the man's expression changed.
"Father…"
He called out again.
Alcimus, who was lying on the ground couldn't reply. His face was bruised, some of his bones were broken, it looked as if he was barely alive.
Seeing this scene, the man clenched his fist in anger.
His eyes then fell on the white-haired man-beast who was standing near Alcimus's body with a casual look on his face and shouted,
"You bastard! How dare you hurt my father!!?"
For some reason, the aura Nawdren unconsciously released had little to no effect on this man.
The man then rushed towards Nawdren, his sword appeared in his hand and he attacked, beheading Nawdren in one move.
…or at least that was what he had planned he would do.
However, before he could even attack, the man felt as if 1 million kilos of weight had been placed on top of his body, unable to take it, the man couldn't do anything and fell down, coughing out blood.
"Khhoocckk!"
The man's eyes widened in horror.
Just… just what in the hell was happening.
*Step*
Suddenly, Nawdren walked towards the man who was lying on the floor and placed his leg on the man's head.
"Hoh? Now this is interesting. Even a mere King Stage Cultivator dares to shout at me?
That bastard has the strength to back it up, but a mere bug like you actually dared to do it?
Commendable indeed."
Nawdren praised.
Soon, however, his expression changed.
"But do you even realize who you are talking to, little bug?"
"UUugggghhh!!"
The man groaned in pain as Nawdren applied more pressure on his head.
Suddenly, Nawdren's expression changed.
"N-Nwo!"
Seeing that expression, Alcimus widened his eyes in horror, even though he barely had the power to move, he extended his hands towards Nawdren, telling him to stop.
Nawdren glanced at Alcimus, a cruel smile then appeared on his face and,
*Burst*
He increased the pressure and…
The man's head burst apart.
"…"
Alcimus froze.
The man who died was none other than the son he adopted.
The son he was so proud of, the son he knew would become the hope of the Woods Dynasty and would follow him and become an Emperor…
A son who he loved more than his actual son…
Kyler Woods.
"You…"
Nawdren frowned when he noticed the change in Alcimus's Aura.
"…"
Alcimus, however, didn't say anything and just lowered his head.
It looked as if he had given up.
However,
Nawdren knew something was up.
Not only him, even Astaria knew something was wrong.
She quickly appeared next to Nux, for some reason, she felt this wasn't going to end well.
"Astaria?"
Nux called out with a confused expression on his face.
"…"
Astaria didn't reply and just continue to look at Alcimus.
Nux couldn't understand why she was acting like this.
Suddenly,
Alcimus stood up.
Nux glanced at him and then he realized.
Alcimus was different from before…
The energy around him… Its intensity matched Nawdren's…
He then grabbed Alcimus's arm and started slamming him on the ground multiple times, treating him like nothing but a rag doll.
"Khhkkkhkk!!"
Alcimus groaned in pain.
He was completely helpless in front of Nawdren.
Astaria tried to help him as well, however, Nawdren was simply using Alcimus's body like a weapon and was swinging him around, forcing Astaria to step back.
