Chapter 18 - 18 THE DEATH OF KING GUOZHI

King Guozhi and king Cheng were facing each other now. Each of them was looking tired, but no kingdom wanted to give up on the fight. No one wants to surrender. You either fight until you are conquered, or you fight until you conquer. The two Kings engaged in a fight as others were also fighting each other.

Now, commander Lucifer has fought his powers out. He can only fight as a mortal man without powers. When commander Lucifer saw that the powers in the sword were no longer working on the sword princess Chu Hua was using, he went up to her and said, "this battle is getting out of hand. Please, can you please do me one favor?" Commander Lucifer asked.

"Which favor?" Princess Chu Hua asked as she pants heavily.

"I want you to go to the Gezam kingdom and stay with our people. We will catch up with you once the battle is over. Three of my men would be your guards to the kingdom." Commander Lucifer responded as he placed his hand on her shoulder and she nodded.

Commander Lucifer quickly took his sword and pointed at princess Fen's stomach, and she dodged it. Apparently, an enemy was coming behind her, and she was unaware of him because she was discussing with commander Lucifer.

Commander Lucifer plunged the sword into the enemy's belly, and his intestines spilled out to the ground without being stabbed again.

"Be careful." Commander Lucifer warned Princess Chu Hua, and she replied, "I will. But I hope this is not a plan to leave me?" Princess Chu Hua said with a low voice. From the sounds of her voice, it shows that she wasn't happy that she was leaving, but she has to if she wants to stay alive.

"No. I won't, and I will never try such a thing." Commander Lucifer promised.

"What about my father?" She asked as she slaughtered a man who was coming with force to fight them.

"His Majesty will be fine, and that's a promise." Commander Lucifer promised her, her father's safety.

As Junjie saw commander Lucifer and the princess discussing, he knew that they must have been talking about taking the princess away from the battlefield. So, Junjie went up to them because he knows that commander Lucifer will demand of him.

On reaching them, Junjie bowed down to the two of them and said, "Commander, I believe that you will inquire about me, that's why I came forth."

"Thanks for being loyal. Take three of our strongest men and take the princess to the Gezam kingdom. I entrust her safety into your hands." Commander Lucifer said and then walked up to Junjie and whispered in his ears and said, "Protect the princess, and don't fail me."

"Yes, commander!" Junjie answered and left to get the three men as commander Lucifer commanded.

After getting the three men that will accompany the princess, along with him, Junjie arranged horses for their journey. He stood from afar and signaled the princess to find her way out so that she could meet them outside the battleground. This is because they were trying to avoid being seen while running away. King Cheng wasn't informed because they were in a serious fight with king Guozhi.

Princess Chu Hua fought her way through, to get access to where Junjie and his colleagues were. Commander Lucifer got prince Junfeng distracted so that he wouldn't sight princess Chu Hua while sneaking out.

"Well! Well!! Well!!! All of a sudden, your magical powers disappeared. This looks good." Prince Junfeng mocked commander Lucifer as they walked around and stared at each other.

"For your information, I don't need any powers to fight you. You are not a true warrior. If you were, you wouldn't have stayed away from me since the beginning of the battle." Commander Lucifer smirked.

"Oh, that? You are too small for me to fight, that's why I sent my boys to fight you. You should be thanking your gods that I didn't fight you, if not, you would have been dead by now." Prince Junfeng sarcastically said.

Prince Junfeng was only speaking while hiding his fear, but he was afraid of commander Lucifer. He wouldn't want to show it up, so that commander Lucifer won't take advantage of it and look down on him. Prince Junfeng was capable of fighting commander Lucifer, but only when he was in human form.

Before princess Chu Hua could reach where Junjie and his men were waiting for her, some of her men were already set up to stop those that were chasing her from behind. Some enemies thought that she was running to the city gate for safety, which made them chase her on foot when she was heading to Junjie. On knowing this, Junjie put some selected armies to stop them from chasing the princess.

Princess Chu Hua and her bodyguards took off from the battlefield and headed to the Gezam kingdom.

On their way to the kingdom, Junjie asked princess Chu Hua, "I hope you are alright, Your Highness,"

"Yes, I am. But I saw many horrors during the war." Princess Chu Hua responded as they speedily ran on the horses.

"That's what warriors face during any war," Junjie said.

"I haven't been to a battle before. This is my first time, that's why everything looked terrified." Princess Chu Hua replied.

"But, you were looking Gallant and courageous. There was no sign of fear in you." Junjie said with a bit of confusion.

"Yes, it was because of the sword given to me by the commander Lucifer and secondly, he was always ready to protect me from any harm." Princess Chu Hua responded.

"Who taught you how to fight?" Junjie asked.

"Lucifer, of course. He secretly taught me all these things. Even my father wasn't aware of it." Princess Chu Hua answered.

"Alright, but…" before Junjie could complete his statement, princess Chu Hua stopped him from asking more questions.

"Please, reserve any question you have for now until we arrive in the kingdom." Princess Chu Hua pleaded with him and Junjie nodded.

They were running through a bushy road in the deep forest. The magical sword was in her holster. The other three bodyguards were behind them.

Prince Junfeng and commander Lucifer were fighting with bare hands without weapons. On the other side, king Cheng and king Guozhi were fighting with swords.

While the two Kings were fighting, commander Bengt asked two of his men to carry him on their shoulders, and they did. He took a bow and arrow. He targeted king Cheng for a few seconds before he released the arrow at him. The arrow pierced through king Cheng's belly, which made him fall to the ground and groan in pain. King Guozhi laughed and mocked king Cheng as he lay on the ground with blood gushing out from his belly to the ground. After mocking king Cheng for a minute, king Guozhi raised his sword to the sky to cut off king Cheng's head.

Chao, commander Lucifer's sword-bearer. Just slaughtered his opponent to the ground, immediately he turned around, he sighted king Guozhi holding his sword so tight to the air. Chao took his gaze to the floor to see who king Guozhi wanted to kill. Low and behold, it was his king.

"No!" Chao screamed so loud that some stopped fighting and stared at him. He saw a spear on the floor, and he quickly took it. And directly, he threw the spear at king Guozhi and the spear slid through king Guozhi's throat. The sword fell off his hand. Blood was flowing out with force like a flowing river. He fell to his knees before falling to the ground.

Commander Bengt, who was standing on his men's shoulders, cried out, "My King!" And jumped down as he ran to where the two Kings were. Chao was also running to his king to rescue him.

The commotion captured prince Junfeng and commander Lucifer's attention. When Lucifer saw it, he kicked prince Junfeng so hard that he fell on his back. Commander Lucifer ran to help king Cheng.

It was like a race, whereby three people were selected to run. Chao, commander Bengt, and commander Lucifer were running to a particular point. Commander Lucifer saw that he wasn't going to reach the kings before Chao and Bengt. So, he picked a sword from the floor and threw it at commander Bengt. Amazingly, the sword cut off Bengt's legs. He fell to the floor and rolled like a stone.

Meanwhile, prince Junfeng gathered the strength he had and took two of his men as they hotly chased after princess Chu Hua and her bodyguards.
