Asura Conqueror
Chapter 41: Nexus, Player King of Marcus' City
Marcus's towering image is already embedded in Jones's mind.
The red bloody figure has his hands balled into a fist.
The Bridge took a few damages. The windows cracked, the computers destroyed, and the floors were turned uneven. The three people who were there other than the two of them were already dead. Jones and his diseased 1st mate killed them before leaving.
The Captain's heart is erratically palpitating. He wanted to run but he couldn't. His legs could no longer stand firm like a father who lost his job unable to pay child support. He wanted to shout but no words would come out. No, wait, words came out but he couldn't hear them. His ears were ringing. He no longer has any way out against the mountain in front of him.
Marcus who's standing firmly was not feeling all that well on the inside. He felt like he's going to collapse at any second. The stone in his soul was vibrating rapidly. He doesn't know why but his head started hurting. He felt like the sword awhile ago would hurt a lot less if that was the one being used.He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.
'I can pass out, but let me finish this guy first.'
Marcus strode forward. He was now in a hurry to finish this. He threw a punch. All his strength was in that last strike.
Jone's felt like his heart was going to explode as he saw Marcus walk towards him. When he saw something close in on him, he flinched and closed his eyes. Tears rolled down his face.
He waited for his death to arrive. One second, two seconds, three seconds, nothing.
*Thud*
Jones felt the ground shake. He opened his eyes, his blurry vision can't clearly see what's happening. But the towering being who was once in front of him was no longer there. He looked down and saw a body that was a few inches away from him. A red body that was becoming smaller. Soon, the asura features were no longer there. What was left was a boy who looked human, covered in blood. It was unknown if he was alive.
Jone's chuckled, the chuckle turned into laughter, a laughter that sounded hysterical. "Hahaha, I escaped the jaws of death! I, Johnny Jones survived an encounter of the devil him--"
He didn't get to finish as a hand pierced through his chest. His eyes opened wide. The last scene he saw was a blurry figure wearing red robes, face covered with a mask. He finally died.
"Alright buddy let's go" Nexus sighed. He looked at Marcus and carried him back to their room. His senses were of course spread out and were locked on Eva, in case something happens to her. They arrived in the room, the lights still red. He went near the couch and into the Destrucstone.
---------
He opened his eyes. He couldn't see anything 'I guess, I'm dead'
He looked at his hands and touched his face. He could still feel them. There was still heat in his body. He looked around but he couldn't see anything. He took a step forward. He suddenly got sucked in the ground.
-------
A man and a woman stood over the air above a clear blue lake. Trees danced as the cool wind breeze blew. Firefly like creatures gathered at the flowers below. The moonlight shone over the woman as if it was fawning over her.
"You!" The woman shouted.
Marcus was once again inside of someone else's body, the man's body. He's once again a mere spectator. But this time the face of the woman was as clear as day. She has round eyes, flat exotic thin eyebrows, cupids lips, and white skin. Her white hair is cut short. Her figure is devastatingly deadly to anyone who looks at her.
The man did just that. He stared at her, seemingly bewitched by her appearance.
"What did you say?!" The woman once again shouted.
"My lady I haven't said anything wrong. I just admired your beauty and my tongue suddenly slipped" The man said.
Their voices disrupted the beautiful atmosphere. They looked at each other. Marcus studied the woman thinking where he has seen her before.
The woman raised her arms. Moonlight gathered around it as she aimed at the man in front of her.
The man stood, unmoving.
'Fucking move! Are you trying to kill us?!' Marcus shouted as loud as he could, seeing that the man was just staring at her. He could read the man's thoughts and know what he feels. So he was sure that this man wouldn't move. The man also has a crazy idea.
"You won't move?" The woman asked. She had a puzzled expression on her face. "I know you're famous for being powerful and cocky but I'm not sure if you'll be able to survive if you take a direct hit from this. Even a few World Eaters died from this blast. Heck, we've fought for years, you know you might die from this" She subtly bragged at the end.
"Then let's make a deal! If I survive we stop fighting and then let me pursue you. If I don't, then it's just my bad luck." The Lord of Destruction said. He finally had the guts to confess. Even if it was this kind of confession.
The Lady of the Moon mockingly laughed "So I guess you're just one of them too. Hungry to have me to get more power. From the stories I heard, I thought the Divine Conqueror was different. I guess I was wrong. Oh, and weren't we enemies?" She finished gathering moonlight but she didn't fire it yet.
The Lord of Destruction smiled " I feel flattered that you think of me. And no that's not my reason for wanting you. Also, I have never considered you an enemy. How could I consider my future wife an enemy?"
The Lady of the Moon's brows furrowed. 'What a shameless man. What is he talking about?'
"I already told you the reason, M'lady. I like your butt." The Lord of Destruction grinned. This of course was not the real reason. He just wanted to lighten the heavy mood.
The Lady of the moon swung her arms and released her spell.
The Lord of Destruction was true to his words, he never dodged.
'Bastard!' Marcus shouted. But he realized he didn't feel any pain. He dryly laughed. A second ago he was scared shitless.
The man laid on the ground. There were deep wounds around his chest. 'Hahaha, she held back. She's not as ruthless as other people make her out to be'
"Stupid! Why didn't you dodge?" The woman cried out.
"A deal is a deal." The man slowly stood up and took a pill. Soon, most of the damages have been healed.
"You should leave." The woman said.
"I will, for now. If I'm seen in these parts of town I'll get hunted. Goodbye, my future wife!" The Lord of Destruction ran away.
The Lady of the Moon finally blushed. She looked at the direction where the Lord of Destruction went and shouted some profanities. After a while she went back to a wooden house close by, her cheeks still red.
They have been fighting for a long time. It all started when The Lord of Destruction made a comment about her butt with thousands of people around. Thus began their 100 year long war. It would be a lie if she says she didn't enjoy the fights. The Lord of Destruction never tried to hurt her, it just seemed like they were having a casual spar. Although sometimes she would go overboard.
------
'Why does this all seem familiar.' Wondered Marcus who was still inside the man's head.
The man soon arrived above a luxurious city. He went straight to the palace and sighed.
"Did you 'visit' her again?" A man on the side asked. Marcus' eyes went wide. This man had black hair with yellow streaks in the middle.
'Nexus?!' Marcus couldn't believe it.
"I did. I'm finally going to pursue her. I don't care which faction she may be in. Hell I'll just raze it to the ground!" The Lord of Destruction raised his voice.
Nexus shook his head. "Marcus you should calm down. Pursuing her right now is like having a death wish. Work on the new magic you discovered. Don't even think about fighting a whole faction. Are you trying to get yourself killed? I'm supposed to be the immature one! Remember that!"
'Marcus?' Marcus who was the spectator couldn't believe what he was hearing. 'What the hell is happening?'
"I know. I'm not stupid. I'm years older than you so don't start lecturing me. Once I get better at Chaos magic I'll definitely decimate the holes where they live." Lord Marcus clenched his fist. He continued "Ahem, I heard some talk in town. Also, I haven't seen you bring any women lately. And I heard you were outside the Holy Maiden's palace again. Are you ready to settle down? I thought you were, 'Nexus, Player King of Marcus' City'? "
Nexus shook his head. "Don't call me that. I want to strangle my past self honestly. Right now I have eyes dead set for her. At least this someone is from our faction."
"Factions smactions. Good luck buddy. A reminder though, the Holy Maiden is as old as I am and also a really close friend of mine. So be more mature and try not to lose your head in the process." Lord Marcus checked the wounds he received in a nearby mirror and then walked away.
---------
Marcus opened his eyes. He was back in the dark room again. He clearly saw the man's face. They had close to identical features. So close that it's uncanny.
'Does that mean I was reinc--' Marcus didn't even get to finish what he was about to say when he was once again sucked in.
-------
Marcus was back to being the spectator. He doesn't have to guess who this person is.
Lord Marcus sat on the foot side of the bed. In front of him was a woman with black hair and green eyes. She only wore a green satin cloth which covered her boobs and a very short green see through skirt.
'Was I a two-timer in my past life? Then what happened to the first girl?' Spectator Marcus wondered. He was already 90% sure about his reincarnation guess 'Or did I build a harem?'
