Chereads / The Boy with a Dream / Chapter 7 - Fight

Chapter 7 - Fight

Arthur, after seeing the man rush towards him, made a sword appear right in front of him as if he had done it many times before.

It was emanating an aura filled with blood thirst, hoping to satiate its hunger. The man after seeing Arthur's sword widened his eyes with fury since he seen that same sword, the sword that killed his family.

The man increased his speed and proceeded to aim for the body, he knew that he was no match for Arthur's power so he decided to whittle him down with his treasures he collected.

Arthur, after seeing the man speeding up towards him, took a defensive stance and proceeded to defend the man's strike.

When the man's spear collided with Arthur's sword, shockwaves resounded throughout Planet Dyson. Many of its inhabitants thought that it was the end of the world.

"Not bad, you've improved last time I've met you," Arthur said.

"SHUT UP!", the man said as he quickly pulled out 3 inconspicuous balls, and threw them at Arthur.

Arthur quickly summoned a barrier of stellar energy since they exploded right it front of him. The explosion caught him off guard as his barrier broke and he was sent back a couple of feet in the air.

The man quickly followed up with a counter attack filled with the fiery flames of his spear so that he could take advantage of Arthur letting his guard down.

Arthur on the other hand quickly stabilized his movement and proceeded to defend the man's offensive on him.

"YES! YES! YES!" Arthur exclaimed, feeling the thrill of the fight once again.

"It has been many years since I've felt this kind of feeling, I must thank you, but now it's time for you to DIE!" Arthur said as if it would be a piece of cake to kill him.

The man was so engrossed in his own mind that he didn't even hear Arthur speak, he just thought to himself that wanted to kill Arthur no matter what.

The man sacrificed so much just to be in this situation, to have a chance to kill the one who ruined his life.

Each clash that the man made with Arthur, you could see the hardships he went through, the things he'd experienced, the pain he lived with.

Each strike with the spear that man made showed the dedication he put into his skill that the power in his attacks started to amplify 2 times.

He used everything in his arsenal, everything he'd ever collected just so that he could kill Arthur no matter what.

Arthur, mean while was enjoying the fight to the fullest. He didn't even care if he was losing,he wanted to experience the thrill of the fight once again.

He was strafing left and right, dodging up and down, due to the heightened skills the man had while trying to attack with his sword to get a good strike to injure him

Each one had their own motivation on why they were fighting, but both had an immense amount of power that even the planet was starting to break.

Each clash by the two sent shockwaves throughout the forest and beyond. The people who lived here had no idea what stellar energy was so they thought it was the end of the world.

Mountains started to crack, the ground started to split apart, and the seas started to sway due to the battle the two were having.

After what seemed like hours, the battle finally stopped, the two were both heavily injured. Arthur had a pierce wound in his lower abdomen, and 2 deep gashes on both his legs.

The man on the other hand wasn't faring any better was he had lost an arm, and the scar on his cheek had grown bigger due to Arthur's sword.

Even due to the better battle experience and having more stellar energy infused into the soul, Arthur was just as injured as the man because of what he fought for, and the emotional state he was in that gave him a power boost that made him on an equal level to Arthur.

"Let me finish what I started," Arthur said hoping that the man would get what he was trying to convey.

The man did not respond to what Arthur said, and proceeded to pick up his bloody spear for the final confrontation.

They were both on their final straws and who ever won the next clash would be the victor.

Arthur conjured his last bit of stellar energy left, while his the man used his last bit of will power and the power of his element to deliver the final blow.

They both ran towards each other, weapons ready hoping that they would be the victor. They both attacked at each other at the same time yet after some time no other sounds were made.

Until a body slowly dropped in the floor cold and lifeless, Arthur's last thoughts before he died was, "I couldn't see what I so desperately wanted to see due to what I've done."

After Arthur's dead body landed on the floor with a *thud*, the man whispered to Arthur's dead body, "My name is Luxe."

He slowly kneeled down beside Arthur's lifeless body, then began to cry. He'd never cried even when his family died. He put all that suppressed emotions into the back of his mind since the only thing in his mind was revenge.

After he achieved it, his life long journey, all his bottled up emotions came pouring out like a thunderstorm. He cried for his children and for his wife, how he had failed them as a father and how he would do anything to get them back.

He cried when he remembered the day his child was born, how he and his wife was so happy yet it was all taken away.

He cried and cried, until he couldn't cry anymore.

He may have won this fight, but the cost was more than he would be ever willing to pay.

After an unknown amount of time, Luxe stood up, broken and emotionless, he was still bleeding from the wounds he had gotten during the fight so he used his power only markers and above can obtain, the power teleported him out of there.

The impact this fight had over the planet was so big the whole ecosystem changed. There were new mountains, new seas and new volcanos. The whole area where the fight took place was destroyed except for the cabin.

Why was the cabin saved? What secrets are inside the cabin? You'll see in the future
