《Emperor Who Rules Over The Swords》Chapter 21— Descending The Dungeon
Advertisement
Am I seeing things… The human stood up on his feet after hitting the wall. His body was bloody messed, while his hair was covered in blood. His eyes remained to clothe cold features, as a smile soon appeared on his motionless face.
Shiversss…
The dark creature almost leaped back from fright. Usually, from any other human's who had challenged him before, they all died a tragic death after bouncing to the wall like a ball that was thrown forward. However, it was a different story to the human in front of him.
His eyes remained unfazed, while his body was cloaked in crimson red. There was a pool of blood from where he was standing like he was losing tons of blood, however, there was not a sign of him showing any weakening sight.
Wasn't I supposed to feel the advantage?!... Although the matter was already regarded, wasn't the dark creature supposed to feel at advantage. After all, Cayle seemed to be on his deathbed, not only his flesh was shown from outside, it also seemed to be seeping out of it, trying to escape from his body.
More likely, why the human still hasn't blacked out. After staring down the pool of blood, the dark creature glared at the human in all fears. If it was him in the human's position, he would have passed out from all that blood loss. After all, no matter how tough his body was, it doesn't change the fact that he could still die from losing blood. And yet, the human was still standing at his both feet like nothing even happened. It seemed like he didn't even notice that he was already beaten up like crazy. His current appearance was close to a lump of mashed meat.
How naive… After strengthening his weakened resolve back to how it originally was, the grin on his face came back fully alive, as his expression soon brightened. Although he hated the fact that he had to take advantage of the situation, the dark creature almost jumped in joy, after imagining defeating such a strong wall. Just what kind of improvements he will achieve after defeating the human in front of him. It wasn't like the human was strong, but for some reason, he seemed to have infinite stamina and doesn't even feel pain, which frightened him. Like a ceiling blocking a way to the sky, he had to break it, or else he would never see the beautiful glory of the sky.

I… I must take him down. The dark creature soon dashed forward without waiting for the human to recover. His speed was faster than the orc Cayle had encountered before. He wasn't supposed to be able to follow with the creature's movement, however, for some reason, his senses seemed to heightened to a degree he never hoped to reach.
All his surroundings became slow. The water dripping out from the ceiling of the cave, leaked out before falling out to the ground, sparkling. The dark cave which doesn't have any light support seemed to be in night vision, Cayle could clearly see every detail of the cave, and soon, his gaze shifted to the approaching dark creature. It was none other than the orc chief warrior.
The dark ferocious creature held a sword in his hand, as he was taking a careful step forward, to not alarm his enemy. Whatta crafty bastard… All of the sudden, the dark creature suddenly changed his tactic of fighting. Actually, his former tactic was much more elegant and proper than the one he was proceeding to do right now.
He was taking advantage of Cayle's wounded stability, by sneaking forward. Though Cayle was respecting the decision the dark creature made, he kind of felt a bit of grief towards it, knowing it can fell so low, after finding his match. How can it fell so low just from sensing danger, although it was true that the strength Cayle was using in his current situation seemed to be not his, it was truly a coward's move to launch a sneak attack upon one's enemy.
As soon the dark creature appeared a few meters away, Cayle didn't wait for it to take action, instead, he chose to charge forward to his very limit, before fixing his gaze upon the dark creature.

His bloodied eyes were gleaming in coldness, resembling a ruthless king stepping down his throne. There was confusion lurking around the dark creature's face, as the human's figure soon emerged out from the darkness.
Unlike Cayle, the dark creature was actually at a disadvantage when it comes to coping with the landscape. Just like Cayle earlier, the orc was only relying on his instinct to locate the human's location, that's why he was able to have the advantage earlier, and also because his senses were much stronger than Cayle had. But, after he had developed an extreme eye that could see through the darkness like he was wearing a night vision, Cayle was put an advantage, over the landscape, and was able to see clearly everything like it was daylight inside.
The story was so different now than how it was from earlier. Well, the dark creature was to be blamed, after all, he ended up playing with Cayle because he found it fun, and as a result, Cayle ended up becoming a monster he had never guessed to appear.
Cayle stared deeply at the orc's shocked expression, as his eyes gleamed a dangerous hue. I wonder where the door leading to the next floor/exit will show up once he finished up with this fellow. Unfortunately, there was no one there available to give him an answer, not only the dark creature wasn't speaking to him, it even looked at him with despise.
I'm the one who's supposed to complain, though! Although Cayle felt like shouting his inner thoughts, he disregarded that matter for momentary since it wasn't that important, before fixing his gaze forward.
His cold sword shone brightly as he slashed forward, with the sword in his hand.

The stories of heroes and legends are the stories of the survivors. Few are the would be heroes that take the time to chronical their trials. Simeon is one of those would be heroes, because when you have no deeds to your name and no one to mourn your loss, then you might as well leave behind some evidence that you tried to make a difference.
