Chapter 21 - Zuko's Lifeblood

"Just prove that you can kill me. I was destined by the gods as the king of immortality in this world, if anyone is going to kill me, it means that he has fought the gods," shouted the demon king proudly of his prowess.

"But I'm here sent by the god to eradicate the evil that will kill Freya. The god is wiser and smarter than a disgusting demon like you," Zuko replied as he took his sword and walked towards the demon king.

The demon king emits the power of lightning which then turns into a giant ax weapon the size of a human body, very large and looks very sharp.

Zuko stopped in his tracks and swallowed hard. in his mind he thought if the demon's ax hit him, then his life was over.

the demon king stood with his giant ax. its torn stomach was wide open with its intestines slightly unraveled and black blood dripping.

Zuko was disgusted to see his intestines the demon king that was decomposed and brownish black, with thick black blood that was very disgusting.

"Even though I'm like this, but I am still able to live and will kill you," shouted the demon king. Instantly a thunderbolt roared violently.

The clouds were getting darker and darker even though the day had not yet turned into night. maybe this is the power of the demon king that has not been released.

"Come here. I will split you into

two," the demon king laughed again.

Zuko just smiled and spun his sword. "Don't be arrogant. A demon like you will surely die by my hands."

"You stupid child. I will make you die now," said the demon king as he ran and waved his ax.

"You arrogant creature. I will burn you," Zuko gave fire power to his samurai sword. instantly the sword turned into a fire samurai who blazed like a fire. but it is not burning, but contains the power of fire.

"Criinnngg," the sound of the meeting between Zuko's fire samurai sword and the demon king's giant ax gave the effect of sparks that floated from the sharp clash of the two weapons.

Zuko held his samurai against the push of a giant ax, he tried to push as hard as he could to finish this fight.

His strength was also almost exhausted. but not for the wolf king, he was still strong and didn't look the least bit tired.

A great battle ensued, each swinging their respective weapons mixed with the tremendous power of each weapon.

Zuko swung his sword quickly, several times his sword hit the demon king's body parts until it was injured and blood started to splatter again.

"Die you," shouted Zuko as he slashed his sword at the demon's intestines that seemed to be unraveling. Instantly the demon king screamed and roared in pain as his intestines burst under the ferocity of Zuko's samurai.

The demon king lay rolling in pain, from his intestines came out like disgusting mucus and smelled very bad.

Zuko backed away and threw his sword because he couldn't stand the smell that clung to the samurai he was using earlier.

Meanwhile, from the intestines in the stomach of the demon king, it secretes more and more mucus and the smell makes anyone faint and can't stand it.

Zuko walked away and vomited something out of his body. At that time no one saw him spewing blood from his body.

He was very worried about his life that would not be long. the god Zeus said if he vomited blood too often when fighting, it would reduce his life. he had given up if his age would not be long.

But he will still take care of Freya before leaving this world. Even if his life is at stake, he will not leave Freya.

For him freya is a part of his life which he must take care of. not only like a princess and her bodyguard, but she already considers Freya a part of her life.

The splatter of blood he spat out made him unable to see clearly. his eyes were dimly blurred and finally he limp lying unconscious with his mouth still dripping blood dripping slowly.

"Zuko. if you bleed more than the blood in your body, you will die and leave this world for good," came a faint voice from his ear. His eyes were closed, unconscious and unconscious. but in his stupor, he felt he was talking to an old man.

"I don't care about my life anymore. I will continue to fight to protect freya until the last drop of my blood, because freya has become a part of my life," Zuko replied to the old man.

He felt that he was standing in a place like a mist filled with white and as if he was standing floating. in front of him there is an old man who has become an old grandfather, Zuko recognizes the old man, he is the spirit of a his destiny book.

When Zuko said that, the grandfather just smiled and nodded his head proudly.

"There will come a time when you come back to life when the goddess Athena cries for you," said the grandfather. a few moments later the grandfather disappeared like the wind.

"What do you mean Grandpa? Why did I come back to life?" Zuko asked too late when the grandfather mysteriously disappeared.

************

He was awakened from his stupor when a healer sprinkled water on his face. he saw Freya staring worriedly and worriedly.

"Thank God you came to your senses. We were really worried about you," said Freya. he took a glass of water to drink to Zuko who was trying to get up.

Zuko drank a glass of water assisted by Freya. His head was still hurting and his vision was still a little dim.

He touched his aching head, and lay back down feeling weak. "my head hurts so much."

"You go to sleep first, don't force yourself to wake up if you're still sick," Freya helped Zuko lay back on the bed.

Patih Cakra came and brought a potion. "Master Zuko! Drink this first, so that your body doesn't go limp anymore."

Zuko slowly drank the potion given by the Patih Chakra, the potion tasted very bitter.

Patih Cakra sat next to Freya. he exchanged glances with Freya, like he was going to talk about something but it didn't feel right.

"Zuko. do you feel pain in your body?" asked the concerned Freya in a soft voice.

Zuko replied by shaking his head and smiling casually.

"Did you vomit blood?" he asked again.

Hearing Freya's question. Zuko just didn't answer, he didn't want Freya to be worried and worried about her situation.

"Honestly. I as your friend really worried about you," said Freya.

"Friends? Freya actually only thinks of me as a friend," he said to himself.

Zuko looked at Freya with a smile. "I'm fine. Don't think too much about me, because I'm here to take care of you and take care of you, not you who pay attention to me."

"Mr. Zuko, but we don't want you to be seriously ill, or anything else," said Patih Cakra.

Zuko was reminded of his destiny to leave this world when he often expelled blood and energy from his body.

"I will be fine."
