BXBX NOVEL Chapter 203: Punishment Deserved
Chapter 203: Punishment Deserved
Unlike her, Kahn had no lineage or a powerful background. He was but a nobody of low birth and wasn't even worth thinking about twice.
Compared to the clan heirs within their own faction and in Rathna alone.. The human that slapped and insulted her was but a measly bug who she would be able to squash at any moment with just a word.
But in her current predicament, not only she couldn't do anything to get back at him… she couldn't even speak or move because her body wasn't even in her own control ever since the core-binding ritual.
Szayel, the useless and incompetent stepbrother of hers who wasn't even a grandmaster rank magician yet despite being nearly 60 years old, now held the leash on her life.
His commands were like the second nature of her body already. Forget trying to break through it.. Her body didn't even allow her to use mana or any form of force to put resistance against his commands.
If Szayel told her to stab herself with her sword, she would end up doing it anyway.
Vivian could barely contain her cries and sadness in her heart after being consumed with rage but was not even able to speak a word.
Everything was supposed to happen just like she wanted after months of planning and using a perfect decoy.
Under the name of Neutral Faction declaring a war against the Pureblood Faction and killing hundreds of their clan heirs of the strongest clans, Szayel was supposed to get killed on the same day.
But all of their plans were thwarted because of one no-name human who appeared at the last moment and saved Szayel's life.
Although she had tried to have Kahn killed on 2 occasions already, he still managed to live on.
[I'm going to kill both these bastards one day! They've ruined everything! Just wait till I find a way to break this curse.] thought Vivian.
But after Kahn gave an insidious grin after looking at her body… a newfound sense of immense danger was created in her mind.
Rather than looking like a handsome man with classic robes of a noble.. Kahn's figure suddenly appeared like a Demon Lord with absolutely nothing but malice in his gaze.
"Tell her that she can fight and even kill me if she wants to. I'll teach her some lessons on both of our behalf." said Kahn.
Szayel agreed with this proposition. Now, he had no care for Vivian as a person or someone from his family after knowing what she thought about him.
As soon as he gave the command, Kahn quickly used the Domain Artifact and both he and Vivian were encapsulated in a dark domain, completely secluded from the rest of the world.
"Now then.. Show me what you got. I will not hesitate from breaking your bone or putting my foot on your head." declared Kahn and quickly released War Dominance at full capacity. With the Hero of Darkness title in effect, he was already 3 times stronger than his peak.
One by one, multiple barriers released from Vivian's body and protected her from Kahn's murderous aura. And now that she could speak in this isolated domain.. Vivian didn't hold back from speaking her true intentions..
"You human scum! Don't think that this shall be the end of I, Vivian Mor Vandereich! One day, I will trample upon everything you love and care about. And when that time comes.. I'm going to make you watch all of it with your own eyes!!" shouted her vampire heiress with a wrathful gaze and stared at the man in front of her.
"Oh, is that so? First, you need to be at least on my level. Or is it that you plan to have your little servants do it for you?.. Oh wait, you don't even have any more servants. You yourself are nothing but a slave now.
Didn't you hear Albestros? In just a decade, you will become a lifeless husk of your current self. Boy would I love to see your face then." spoke Kahn with a mischievous tone.
He was kicking Vivian down when she was at her lowest but didn't feel bad in the slightest.
Kahn summoned Lucifer after two months for the first time. The last time he did was on the day he and Vivian clashed.
"Show me your motivation!"
Said Kahn and quickly used the Sword King skill as he created more than a hundred aura swords made from different elements.
He lowered his aura so Vivian could move and then simply pointed Lucifer in her direction.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Dozens of flying swords dashed and attacked Vivian.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Vivian was left with no choice but to dodge and parry the swords attacking her as the force behind every single of these swords was something she could barely tackle head-on. She used multiple defensive artifacts to cover her entire body in protection barriers and gathered her mana to launch an attack.
In just a dozen of attacks, Vivian was already forced 10 steps behind and her arms were barely keeping up with the fast attacks. Forget attacking Kahn or fight on even terms.. She was thoroughly oppressed from the very beginning.
[What kind of nonsense is this?! I've trained with semi-saint swordsmen before. Why is he so many times stronger than them?] asked Vivian.
She herself was a peak grandmaster swordswoman so she easily understood the difference in strength by just a few of these exchanges.
"Don't think just because I'm currently not favored by my clan, you can actually injure or kill m.."
Before she could finish the sentence, an unimaginable pain suddenly hit her mind.
"Arrrrrhhhhh!!!" screamed Vivian after her brain finally registered a black greatsword plunged in her left thigh.
Vivian dropped on the ground, she didn't even see when Kahn attacked her with this greatsword with the speed of light. The barriers broke instantly and she was poked before she could even feel the attack coming from 10 meters ahead.
To her screaming and wailing figure.. Kahn only replied solemnly with a devilish grin.
"I'm not gonna kill you. I'm just gonna hurt you really, really bad.."
