Chereads / Island X / Chapter 126 - The Ten Dark Knights

Chapter 126 - The Ten Dark Knights

The dark coffin…Adisa acquired this ability through intense mental training when locked away in the dark.

Being in the dark…can cause a connection between the physical being and the dark dimension. The dark dimension is a cold,powerful, and evil power. A powerful being was sealed there many…many years ago.

Very few have been able to tame its power. Once the dark dimension user opens the coffin the user will then have access to the ten legendary dark knights. The ten knights were loyalt servants to the dark dimension ruler. The user will be able control the knights.

Not just anybody can use this power. There has only been one user throughout all history known to the universe. Adisa is now the second user in history.

The user gains IQ,battle IQ,strength,agility, endurance,stamina,accuracy, and focus. The only way to become a chosen one is to fall deep into darkness. The user must be at an all-time low. Depths even other beings can't comprehend.

The coffin also declines any vows the user has on him or her. Adisa and Aten were in a vow. Being Aten is the one who placed the vow on Adisa…the two souls are separated. Therefore, the bodies are separated.

A light wind pushed past Adisa's long hair. Adisa stared off with a blank expression in his eyes and face. (Zarbon….everyone. Alayah….) Adsia began to laugh as a dark energy formed around him.

"I killed them! Everyone who actually cared…is dead?!" Adsia's laugh slowly turned into a cry. (Someone…tell me why I was cursed. Tell me!)

Adsia fell to his knees and pulled his hair while also scratching at his face. (Help me! Help me!)

Obsidian's creatures all emerged from the shadows. Without Adisa even noticing them. The thirty creatures all sprinted towards him with his back turned.

Before the creatures could touch him, a giant axe appeared out of thin air and sliced multiple heads off.

A large hand reached out from the black hole above Adisa and grabbed one of the creatures by the neck. Adisa could hear the creature struggling.

A loud crack noise could be heard. Blood poured from above as Adisa kept looking at the ground.

There was a loud thud before Adisa turned around to see an 8-foot creature covered In black armor, standing a few feet away from him.

The creature had glowing purple eyes, black armor that covered its skin with gray outlines, long black claws, a large battle axe, a spike-like helmet that resembled a rhinoceros's horn, and a black cape that dragged across the ground with each step it took.

It's aura was light purple…as a thick mist of it was covering behind it.

The creature slammed its axe into the ground and stared at Adisa. "You…the one…who summons me?" The knight asked in a powerful and deep voice. Just from his voice alone, Adisa could sense the power he had. "I have…a favor to ask." Adisa replied with a whisper.

"What…do…you need?"

"Aten's head."

******

Aten fell out of the coffin. He used his hands to stop himself. "This is my body?!" Aten jumped up and looked at himself. "Eh, the brats clothes are still on me? Must be from the souls being connected, I guess." Aten ripped off the black shirt and jacket.

Two gold elbow bands wrapped around his left and eighth arms. A gold necklace, long locs that stopped at his shoulders, six-pack,slightly muscular body, and wore no shoes. "It's been many years!" Aten took a few steps foward before looking down at the city.

He could see his smooth-skinned face in the window. "Tsk. Almost forgot what I used to look like." Aten turned around and faced the coffin. "This is a power even I…would have trouble with defeating. My energy is at the lowest. 1% once more. I'll need to regain it all somehow. For now…I'm trapped here with these punks." Aten rolled his eyes and rubbed his hands through his hair. "I'll slaughter them all." Aten laughed as he pointed in Aten's direction.

"Even with just one percent. I'll be able to kill him. As long as he didn't-"

******

"Aten…? Why…would I….help…you….boy-"

Adisa stood up. "I'm not asking." Adsia said as he began to walk towards the knight. "You're a level-one knight. Easiest to become allies with. You must be Tank."

Tank slowly raised his axe and let out a powerful roar that shaked the entire city. "I do not serve you!" Tank slammed the axe down, exploding a large portion of the area.

Adisa managed to fly hundreds of meters away. Tank was standing behind him on the building. "I know you're stronger than me…I will not fight you, Tank. I must save my energy."

"I…haven't been summoned in years…and you…you have no right to-"

"I don't care about anything…right now. All I want…if for you to kill him. I don't want to fight anyone else." Adisa turned his head and glared at Tank.

Tank felt a powerful presence within Adisa. "Aten." Tank whispered as he closed his eyes. "With his current energy readings…me and you both should be enough to kill him. Are you ready, boy?"

Adisa turned back and stared off towards the ground. "Hold that thought." Adisa said as he stood up.

He looked over Tank's left shoulder to see Frost standing behind Tank. "I see him. Not a threat." Tank said with his powerful voice. Adisa walked in front of Tank and looked Frost into his eyes.

"I can't believe what I'm seeing. You again?" Frost said as he grabbed his head and shook it slowly.

Adisa stared at Frost with a cold look. "I'll deal with you some other time."

"Deal with me? You say that as if you could beat me." Frost said with a chuckle. "You're infected with Obsidian's parasite." Adisa said.

Frost stopped smiling. "What makes you-"

"I don't know how…but that friend you said you had…never existed. Somehow, Splinter knew your condition and took advantage. That night you and Summer had that date….it was Splinter.

Frost sighed. "What a shame. I'll remove it after I'm done here. For now…let's finally settle this…once and for all, Adisa. Let's see who's truly better."

"No. I'll slaughter you and Summer once I'm done with the mythical beast. Step aside, Frost-boy."

Frost smacked his lips. He glared at Adisa. The two flared their aura's. Adisa's black aura pressed against Frost's blue aura.

"We…do this now! The world is better off without you, Adisa."

"You started this…not me!" Adisa responded.

The two were interrupted by a large explosion in the distance. Frost and Adisa could see Titan taking swiped at Jerome and Jericho.

Titan's decay was starting to spread throughout the city, destroying anything in its path.

"Looks like you get off this time." Frost said as he used his ice to disappear. Adisa turned back towards Tank. "Let's go, Tank-"

A large fist landed on Adisa.

Obsidian had leaped behind him and almost broke his neck. "Damn! Should've used more power." Obsidian said as Adisa crashed through multiple buildings.

Adisa slammed his sword into the ground to force himself to stop. He slowly looked up to see Obsidian hovering above the buildings, with his bright green aura surrounding his muscular dark body. Obsidian looked at on Adisa. "I don't know why…but I really didn't think you'd be the one whose the guardian." Obsidian chuckled. "What a fool I am! Adisa…you've told me that name before!"

Adsia rubbed him himself off and rolled his eyes. "The hell did you come from?" Adisa asked while snapping his neck.

(Something's different. This boy…his durability is far greater than the last time I saw him. What's the meaning of this?)

(Something's off. His appearance and battle power have changed. This isn't a primal unleashed…this is his true self?)

"I don't have to waste anymore time with you. I'll slaughter you here and now!" Obsidian laughed as hundreds of his creatures crawled on top of the multiple tall buildings behind Obsidian in the air.

"You've gathered quite the army. Don't want to do a one-on-one?" Adisa mocked. Obsidian chuckled. Obsidian shrugged his broad shoulders. "Nope. This is for my king. As the leader of this operation, we will make sure to make quick work of you, boy."

Adisa raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean "we"?" Adisa asked.

Obsidian took a deep breath. "NOW, TOXIN!!"

Adisa felt a cold feeling shoot through his body.

The world slowed down. Everything was in slow-motion. Adsia turned his head…and was looking at a woman with black hair, bright green eyes filled with aura, pale gray skin, hair dropped to her shoulder, a green and black outfit,a thick green mist behind her, and a green glowing sword in her hand.

"Die fool." The woman said in a prideful voice. She swung her sword. Adisa teleported out of the way and to the side of her.

The slash followed up and sliced down multiple buildings in process. Adisa stared at the woman as she let out a little laugh. She turned to face Adisa, revealing her clear face and perfect lips.

"A mythical beast?" Adisa asked.

The woman smiled and ignored his question at first. "I'm the one who's going to kill you." She said.

Adisa studied the green mist that was starting to surround her and the area. (That's not right. Her mist…is bad for me.) Adsia notcied all of Obsidian's creatures sitting on top of buildings. Some even walking on air above him. (That's someone's ability. They can minipulate the air and make it something like a hard surface. Amazing. However, this woman in different. Her…toxin is something dangerous. I can't breathe it in. Let alone even touch me physically.

Adisa even notcied how quiet the area was. (I see. They've made the area smaller with the air manipulation ability. Making it almost impossible espace the area I'm stuck in due to the air ability. They've even put Obsidian's creatures in the air to stop me from flying up. I'll just get outnumbered and probably infected.)

Adisa focused on the woman and put away his sword. (I don't even know the full distance I can go to get away from her toxin gas. Obsidian has also moved from his spot. He lowered his aura levels so I can't detect him.)

"I can tell that you're thinking about this. Let me guess, who am I. Who's ability is controlling the air. Where's Obsidian. What…is this mist?"

"I know what it is. It's toxic. I'll die if I breathe it in or have it touch me. Obsidian is probably flanking around the perimeter you all set up…and you…you are just another unknown mythical beast that we haven't seen until now. "

Toxin raised her eyebrows. "Oh? Cute and smart." She chuckled while walking back and forth.

"I have a feeling this is gonna be a pain in the ass of a fight. Walk away and I'll let you live for a little longer." Adisa threatend.

Toxin rolled her eyes and put her hand into her toxin gas. The gas speared far behind her, covering anything else behind her from Adisa's view.

She walked slowly sideways while dragging her hand in her gas. "Humans…make chemicals that can easily kill bugs. They even do research on how to do it to their own. Crazy, isn't it?" Toxin said while walking in her high heels.

(Adisa, this thing is going to be a challenge without me. Shall I-)

"There's no need. Your weapon will be more than enough. Right now, at this moment, I feel nothing but calmness. I don't want to rely on the ten dark knights. You are my ability…not my comrade."

Toxin stopped moving and put her sword away in the gas. She pulled out a long chain with spikes from the gas and began to swing it slowly. "So, Adisa. Shall…we begin?"

Adisa said nothing. He just looked straight ahead, thinking of only one thing: (I must kill Aten. No matter what. Kill him and burn this shit hole to the ground!)

Toxin quikcly raised her arms and swung the chain towards Adisa's body. Adisa jumped out of the way. He could hear Obsidan's breathing coming behind him.

"Activate." Adisa said as Tank's axe began to parry all of Obsidian's punches. Toxin flew at Adisa. Adisa and Toxin began colliding their weapons. While Obsidian collided with Tank's axe with his fist.

Everyone was moving so fast, that their arms had almost disappeared from view. Toxin held out her hand and grabbed a pile of gas.

Adisa moved his head out of the way. The gas hit Obsidian in the face. Adisa used his leg to trip Toxin. Toxin was in the middle of falling to the ground, while Adisa landed a kick on Obsidian. (I can't even move the bastard!)

While falling, Toxin used the gas fumes from her chain and threw it at Adisa. Adisa quikcly used his sword to block the gas. The gas was unusually powerful. It was pushing him through the area while he continued to block it.

He used his strength to push the gas into the air and cause a small explosion of it. Adisa could see the gas pouring down and towards him.

He looked straight ahead to see Toxin and Obsidian running side-by-side towards him. They switched positions repeatedly to try and confuse Adisa.

Adsia stood still, holding his sword in front of him. (I'm not worried. It's almost like…I'm enjoying it. What's wrong with me? Why do…I have this feeling of…of…cockiness?)

Toxin jumped and pushed off of Obsidian to land a kick on Adisa on the face. Obsidian followed up with a powerful uppercut.

While Adisa was lifted into the air, Toxin was headed towards him from the air.

"Chaos attack."

Toxin was caught off guard. She stopped and redirected her body in the air to avoid what was coming.

Adsia stopped his attack and focused on Obsidian. "Doomsday…punch!"

Adisa waved his sword. His aura connected with Obsidian's attack. The two were sent flying a few feet away from each other.

Adisa landed softly on his feet. Toxin laughed while surfing on a cloud of her gas above Obsidian while he slowly walked up the street towards Adisa.

"I think I'm done with the warm up, boy." Toxin laughed as her gas was not beginning to fall from the air.

Adisa notcied gas all around them. (They've surrounded the entire perimeter with gas.)

"Yeah…I agree. It's time to really let loose and go wild." Adisa responded with a faint laugh.

Obsidian stopped in his place. "Don't go ahead anymore, Toxin. He's crazy." Obsidian said in a serious tone.

"What makes you say that?" She asked. "Something's not righth with him. He's about to die… nowhere to go or run. Yet, he is calm? His aura is also rising."

"Then…let's stop playing with our food." Toxin raised her hand into the air. The gas spreaded the entire area. Toxin and Obsidian watched as Adisa was engulfed by the gas. "It was that easy, Obsid-"

Adisa yelled as the gas was pushed away from his body. (Aura amplification?!)

Adisa's aura covered his body. His aura was now acting as a shield for his body. Aura amp is great for defense and offense when wanting to break through something. "You Akies never disappoint!" Toxin laughed.

Adisa rolled his eyes and bent low to the ground. (I won't stop…until Aten,Frost,the king….everything!)

"DIIEEE!!!" Adisa yelled as he flew towards the two beasts.
