Level Infinity Weakest King

'Zwoop'

"Ah! Finally, we are ba-"

"Huh?"

Bandis, who was excited to have returned back to the human world, suddenly experienced a shock when he took a look at the area where they just came.

The land seemed completely red as if it was some area made up of lava rocks but the redness was probably because of the texture of the soil and the mood.

More than that, the shock was about seeing Zor right in front of him.

"What are you doing here?!", Bandis asked right away with the same shocked expression that was on his face.

"Me? I was given a special task by master?", Zor tried to boast and was practically teasing Bandis.

"You!", Bandis too got provoked just by hearing that.

"Hehe, I am special to master after all!", Zor tried to push Bandis to the edge even more and he was literally successful.

"Zor!", Bandis snapped and was about to punch Zor when all of a sudden Rex appeared right beside him.

"What are you doing Bandis?", Rex asked with a dead fish like expression as if he knew what was going on.

"Uh, master... this is..."

Bandis hesitated to say and Zor took the advantage of this opportunity.

"Master! He was trying to bully me... waaaa...", he literally feigned the cry as if he wanted to tease Bandis even more and get Rex on his side.

"You!", Bandis just lifted his right hand yet again and showed it as if he wanted to punch him hard, but then again when he noticed that Rex was also watching, he withdrew the same hand.

"Sigh, don't act Zor, I know you very well...", Rex looked at him and said that.

"Aye, I can't fool master. Haha.", he just laughed it out.

"Isn't that obvious, dumb.", Bandis said as if he was getting back on Zor.

"Sheesh, jokes aside, we have something important to do here...", Rex said.

"Important?", Bandis didn't know what was going on in the first place.

Moreover, he was confused as to why would Rex come to such a weird place instead of returning back to Rhone.

He wanted to ask all those things and wanted to confirm everything, but it seemed like asking Rex would only disturb him because he was in quite a serious mood right now.

So he thought that it was the best to just be patient and understand everything through their conversations. 

"Hmm so tell me Zor, did you take care of what I had asked to?", Rex asked.

Zor bowed in front of him right away and said, "Yes, as per your orders, I closed the portal which was opened forcefully."

"I took care of the rest of the army and the gargoyle King is waiting for you...", he said with a humble tone.

'Huh? Army? Gargoyle King? What's going on?'

Bandis was even more confused now because nothing seemed to fit in his thick brain just from there minute talks that they were having.

"Good... Lead the way.", Rex said.

Right after that Zor stood up and started to show Rex the way.

He too started walking and so did Bandis. Rex was glancing here and there but was finding nothing more than a bunch of dead trees.

The moon was without a doubt red and so was the land, but what was even more red was the river.

There was just a small river nearby which looked completely red despite the dark sky.

For an instance anyone could have mistaken it for the color of the moon but that couldn't have been the case.

"This..."

Rex was shocked when he took a look at the river a bit.

More than a river, it would be better to call it a large stream.

"Due to the darkness, the greener parts are not very clearly visible but is this really what I am thinking it is?", Rex asked while constantly staring at the stream as he walked nearby it.

"Yes master, you are completely right. This is a stream that has been formed a while ago..."

"And instead of water, it's made up of blood."

Bandis suddenly paused when he heard that and took a closer look at the stream.

"Blood...?"

"Yes, the blood of the gargoyles...", was what Zor said.

Rex too paused a bit when he heard that. He was completely awed to see such a thing.

He had previously ordered Zor to shut the portal and had asked to take care of the gargoyles.

But little did he know that Zor would do something like this which was literally not accepted because no matter who it was, they shouldn't have been killed in such a way.

Furthermore, Rex could actually imagine the way their blood might have been extracted to make such a stream.

"Zor..."

"Yes master?", Zor came running towards Rex almost immediately like a loyal dog.

"Why did you do this?", Rex asked.

'Slap'

Rex ended up slapping Zor when he asked that.

"...", Zor was quiet for a moment because he had no answer for that.

He was shocked to see Rex slapping him because this was his first experience.

Even if he wanted to tell the reason, it would just seem as an excuse to Rex because he was quite angry.

"Tell me, why did you do this...?"

For some reason, Rex's good nature awakened right now. That was too silly of him because he shouldn't have asked something which he himself had done once.

He too had butchered many Fallen angels alive as if they were some mere toys and that was something which he couldn't run from even if he reversed the time because he had his memory intact.

Although, thanks to that experience he wasn't shocked too much, it did give him a slight nerve breaking experience.

"..."

Rex asked him the same question 2-3 times but Zor didn't answer.

The reason for which Rex was angry because he didn't want someone close to him go down such a path.

He never taught him about brutally massacring everyone, so it came as a shock to him.

"You..."

"..."

"You...", Rex wanted to scold him too but he couldn't do it anyway.

But it seemed as if Zor was indeed expecting something like this, but he never knew that he would literally be slapped.

Bandis too stayed quiet and the mood was completely ruined because of that.

"Come... lead me the way.", Rex said once again because Zor had told that the gargoyle king was waiting for him.

Right now it felt as if there was a rift built between them because this was probably the first time ever Rex had slapped someone dear to him.

Regardless, as per Rex's orders, Zor just led the way.

Soon a few of the bodies of gargoyles start to appear which were lifeless.

Rex and Bandis noticed the burnt marks and scratch marks which was without a doubt dine by Zor.

They further kept walking when finally they reached near an elevated ground from where a vast area could be viewed.

When Rex and Bandis stood there, they saw thousands of Gargoyles that were already dead.

Also, the giant gargoyle which had entered the Fairy land, which was more than enough to completely wipe them out, was also present here.

In fact, there were more than just a single Giant Advanced Gargoyles here.

They were also dead and the fact that only half of their bodies remained while being burnt whereas the remaining body had vanished proved that Zor had used the 'Dragon's Breath'.

Rex didn't give any sort of specific reaction and continued to follow Zor when finally they stumbled upon a scene which could literally make Rex puke.

"This is..."

Rex was completely shocked by the scene that was right in front of him.

Moreover, even Bandis could hardly believe at what he was looking at.

Right at that moment Zor paused and then after turning back, said, "Master, this is the reason that made me form a stream of blood..."

Rex stared at Zor and then stared back at the scene where many bones were kept.

That was not that attracted their attention, what actually made them horrified after looking at the scene was that there were still some fairies alive at the place who were eating their own body parts.

Though they were unconscious right now thanks to Zor, it was quite evident with the blood marks and flesh marks that were left on their teeth and face.

Rex was now finally able to understand the reason for which Zor did this and he regretted slapping him.

He slowly walked towards him and said, "Forgive me, I was too impulsive..."

Zor hadn't felt a slightest bit of hate or anything else when Rex hit him because he hadn't explained himself at the starting which led to misunderstanding.

So he thought that it was his mistake to begin with and that was why he looked at Rex and said, "No, I should be the one to apologize..."

Both of them were quiet for a while now after they said that to each other, but right after this happened, Rex asked just one thing, "Where is that bloody monster?"

Suddenly a wave of killing intent emerged from Rex's body.

To be continued...
