When Einar saw the man jumping at him, he decided to just swing the sword. The man felt a lot of danger from this casual swing, so he decided to back down from attacking.
"Who are you, and what do you want?" The man growled as he looked at Einar with anger.
Einar was just looking at the man in front of him. He was giving off a murderous Aura that Einar had never felt before. Einar had no plan of letting his guard down, but he still had to wonder what this man was, he was no normal human if one could even call him that.
"To protect these women of course!" Einar answered back with a slight smile. That was his initial intention, but then he saw what this man really was, and now he had to restrain this man, and maybe try to get some information.
The man looked at Einar with a displeased look, as if he had wanted these women for himself. Ada, Adania, and Emily were truly beautiful women, so the man had thought of having a good time with them, before selling them off as slaves at a high price. The problem no though was that he felt he could not deal with Einar. He gave off a too-powerful Aura.
"Then I will just take my leave!" The man gritted his teeth and said. He felt the smartest choice was to get away and get some help against this man.
The man started to turn around and run. The faster he got away, the better it was for him. Einar of course noticed this as well.
*Shing*
BOOOOM!!
Before the man even had a chance to run away, a light flashed from the side of Einars waist. He had tried to strike the man down, but once again, the had evaded the strike. The pressure from the strike then hit a boulder further down which in turn exploded.
"I don't think so, I will have to restrain you!" Einar said as he gave the man a smile.
This smile was quite a normal smile, but to the man, it was like a demon was looking at him. He had felt this way once before, which was when a man gave him these powers. That man had the same dangerous Aura about him, but the Aura of that man was much more murderous and dark.
Einar's Aura was really powerful compared to many others, but it lacked something compared to the man. Einar did not have as much murderous intent as the man, as Einar had not seen as much killing. Einar had killed many monsters, but that was not the same as slaughtering many humans. As such, the murderous intent of that strange man was much scarier.
"Will you let me restrain you peacefully, or will we have to fight?" Einar asked the man, as he in all honesty, just wanted this to be over.
"DON'T FUCK WITH ME!!!" The man suddenly became enraged. His Aura started to surge, as the world started to turn a bloody red. "THE MAN PROMISED ME INFINITE POWER!! HOW COME I AM POWERLESS AGAINST THIS ... KIIIIIIID!!" One could hear the helplessness and anger in the man's voice.
Einar noticed that the man in front of him yells something about a man giving him power. This made him feel kind of weird. The man in front of him, felt like those corrupted creatures at the moment, does this have anything to do with each other?
'Does the man he is talking about, have anything to do with the creation of the deadlands?' Einar started to wonder. This just made it even clearer, he had to catch this man alive, no matter what. In the end, this might all be able to explain what has happened, and why so many villages had been destroyed needlessly.
"DIIIIE!" The man yelled as he jumped on Einar.
Einar had a calm domineer at the moment. He looked like there was nothing around him that was a thread. He responded to the man's attack with a steady sidestep while slashing down his sword.
"AAAARGH!" The man screamed.
The sword hit the shoulder of the man, nearly cutting off the already wounded hand. Einar was just calmly staring at the man, not even a shred of fear could be seen on him. He himself had no idea how he stayed this calm, it was quite shocking to him as well.
The three girls were also looking at Einar like he was some kind of knight in shining armor. He looked absolutely stunning and cool at the moment, and none of them could take their eyes off his handsome face.
The man was also looking at Einar, his face was full of fear, he already knew that he couldn't win, but he had hoped to at least take Einar with him in death.
"Why don't you just give up, and let me ask you some questions?" Einar showed a smile, he did not feel like fighting.
"HEHEHE, I might not be stronger than you ... But we will all die hear HAHAHAHAHAH!" He started laughing maniacally, as his Aura started to rise once more. It was much more potent, and his body started to expand.
Einar saw what the man was trying to do, and it was something he had never seen or heard of before. But he was sure he was trying to explode himself, and take everyone with him in his death.
'They have no time to be safe, what do I do?' Einar was thinking. He could feel from the Aura that the man's body was very close to exploding, and it was definitely not something the girls could withstand.
BOOOOOM!!
A huge explosion sounded, and a big mushroom cloud could be seen many a thousand meters away. The destruction it brought with it, was 1000 meters wide and long. The flat land had become a huge crater, around 50 meters deep in the middle. Everything within this explosion looked to be destroyed, nothing was standing tall at the moment.
If one looked closer though, there was a long line from where Einar stood that had not been touched by the explosion. This line had not been touched, as Einar had taken the full force of the explosion.
Behind Einar stood three young girls as well, as Einar had appeared in front of them. Ada still remembered the way Einar had jumped in front of them with a warm smile while saying "I will protect you!" She had understood something bad would happen, but she would have never thought what it was.
After the explosion, Einar was still standing tall. "What was that?" Ada asked him, as she saw he was still standing.
...
When she didn't get an answer after a few seconds, she got a bad feeling. A gruesome smell started to assault her nose. It was not like anything she had ever smelled before, but it had a faint burning smell to it.
After not getting the answer from Einar, she decided to go in front of him, getting him to face her. What she saw, was something she would never forget, it was the most gruesome thing she had ever seen before.
