RE:BORN Zombie

Just a moment later, the entire palace was caught in a ragging vortex of water that went all the way to the top of the ocean. Somehow, the king had controlled it so that it did no harm to his people and surroundings, just the palace. The giant hole was small at the bottom and enormous at the top of the ocean.

Not only did the force of the spinning water suck and carry everything into it, it also kept them in.

After however long it took for all to be above the ocean, the king emerged from the waters and stood above it, almost.

Victor, at this point was a bit disorientated and had to get back his bearings first. He soon did however, and with a place of his hand above the water, it turned into ice and he stood on top.

After the vortex, Orvion’s power remained deactivated, and he was nowhere to be seen at the moment even. ‘He better stay down.’ Victor thought to himself.

The king had faced him, and Victor couldn’t disagree more that he might have been mistaken as the leader of the humans that came, even though he clearly wasn’t.
“You are an interesting one.” The king said, as he grazed the waters with his toes like he skated over them and came closer to Victor who maintained his cool on his block of ice he stood on. He certainly hadn’t fought against the king before, so he may not know about his physical capabilities, but as long as he had access to his skills, he was not afraid of a confrontation, as he had counters against the water control the king had shown.

“What do you want from the humans.” Victor asked.

“The humans.. You speak as though you are not one of them. Are you not?” Asked the king.

“Can’t you tell?”

“Well, it doesn’t really matter to me.” The king said as he charged at Victor from a close range. Victor quickly found himself at a bit of a disadvantage, as the king was definitely just some millisecond faster than him. Victor could clearly see the attacks, but managing them was the problem.

The throw of hands only lasted briefly before both men engaged using skills. Though Victor was pushed back when it came to physicality, He had enough skills to skill instantly, the king. Perhaps he chose not to do so at the moment, he had his reasons.

Seeing that there was no significant advantage in a hand to hand combat, the king distanced himself a bit from Victor, and as he did so, the water beneath Victor immediately burst out all round him like jaws ready to eat him whole. Victor responded, and the water all around froze completely into concert ice.

Before The king could react himself, Victor smashed his foot on the ice and kicked a few pieces towards the king, which he dodged cleanly without being grazed.

Their fight continued, and as it did, Victor kept countering the king’s moves and attacks by turning the to ice. It was the only power he had shown to possess before the king while choosing not to show his other cards. He could keep up in speed and skill, so there was no need to overexpose himself. Instead, what Victor had succeeded in doing was study the enemy and understand the king’s power.

He still didn’t know whether it was a kind of innate ability, but one thing was certain, his control remained only in water. He clearly could not control or manipulate ice, and that was it. All he had was water, which was a good thing, to an extent. The bad thing though, was that the entire surrounding was not just covered in water, but was water. The advantage was much. The only thing Victor had going for him was that he could freeze up that water, and his range was plenty. Whenever he wanted, he could freeze up to a hundred metres around him, maybe a little bit more.


“I see you can only control the water?” Said Victor, as he stared at the king who was doing the same.

“Maybe so, but unlike you, I have no limit.” The king said.

Victor was a bit not understanding of these words, but what followed next exclaimed itself. To put it plainly, it was like the entire sea had risen to it’s feet and covered the sky. The amount the king could control was certainly mind blowing, and that was not all, as another one bigger than the first came from the opposite direction.

In a matter of seconds, the gigantic walls of water collapsed on the area where their fight was happening.

Of course, it did Victor no harm, and he came out unfazed. The others however, they were totally ragged around my the fight between Victor and the king.

The fight continued for a longer than necessary time, and that was when Victor’s tenacity and stamina started showing, as he had yet to even breath hard, not once.

Strategically, the king retreated and returned back to the depts of the ocean.

From this encounter, one thing was clear, and that was that there was another power so strong that it could affect such a large area and quantity of water, of anything. This was something Victor had been looking for, and finally he felt like he had just connected dots to something.

The humans started regaining themselves again and slowly gathered close to Victor as he was on his ice slab that floated. The all had exceptionally failed at their own game of manipulation and all, they just met their equal.

Seeing as Victor seemed to be enjoying the fight, Veritas stayed out of it in all ways she could and just observe from a distance.

As soon as they all returned back to land through a ride on an ice slab, Everybody went their own way right after deciding on a meeting that they scheduled the very next day due to urgency.

‘After this meeting, I’m going back there.”
