Great Minos, my informant just informed me that the dark troops have started gathering their forces and will likely move out the day after tomorrow or before that. The chief said.
Okay, is that all? Get your troops ready, make them learn all the magic they can and make sure they are prepared to fight and support me. Minos said, standing up to leave.
Yes, great Minos, but don't you have a plan for a counterattack? The chief asked, unsure of what to do really.
I don't. All I need to do is get out there and kill some freaks, while someone like you stays safe and you're asking me for a plan. Why exactly are you the chief? Minos scoffed before leaving the chief's chamber.
After leaving the chief's chamber, Minos decided to go for a walk as his mind was not really calm. He was scared of death as he knew that if the so-called warriors of Akkaba remained the way they were, he would have to face the dark council's army alone. He also thought of the system as it was in reboot. Could he really face them without it?
After a while, he returned to his hut to find Xin folding his clothes and humming to a tune.
Walking past her, he collapsed on the bed, closing his eyes as his mind was still clouded.
Hey, you look tired, are you alright? Xin asked.
Yeah, I'm good, I think. Minos replied.
Hey Xin, please come and undo the seal. It seems like the time of war is upon me. Minos said, remembering he still couldn't channel his full power.
Thought you said you can free yourself. Why need my help, oh great Minos? Xin said with a smile, while Minos chuckled.
All I need to unlock this chain is simple. I just need a deep kiss from you and boom, the chain is unlocked. So wifey, will you come over and give your hubby a kiss? Minos said with a sly smile plastered on his face.
(+_+) You wish. Xin replied, dropping the basket of folded clothes before joining Minos on the bed.
After a long line of incantations, a bright light emanated from Minos's body, which lasted for 10 seconds before disappearing.
Okay, you're free. Xin said as she wiped the droplets of sweat on her face, while Minos nodded, closing his eyes once more.
After a while, Minos was in a cross-legged position, trying to channel his ki to see if he could break through his maximum limit of 75% to 100%.
After meditating for four hours straight, he was able to increase it to 80, but that's where it stopped. No matter how long he meditated, he couldn't increase it.
Later, during sunset, he stopped meditating and was thoroughly frustrated at the outcome of his nine-hour meditation period and only a result of +5%.
Minos suddenly began to miss Earth, as he was even more annoyed that now that he had lots of money, he didn't get to spend it as he wished.
Looking at Xin peacefully sleeping on his bed, Minos began to wonder whether this girl trusted him too much or she wasn't scared now that they were married.
Next day
Minos finally got word that the enemy troops would be reaching the village in less than two hours and he was prepping for war as he put on the light armor provided for him by the chief.
Hun, don't forget what you promised me. Xin approached him and said, shocking the daylights out of Minos.
Xin, what did you just call me? Minos asked with a smile.
E…erm, I…I called you Minos, Minos, alright! Xin said, causing Minos to laugh.
Little baby, don't miss me too much, alright? And for sure, I will be back for you. Minos said, standing up slowly as he was trying to get comfortable with the armor. It added to his weight and flexibility, but after a while, it began to feel normal.
Xin, I'm off now. Won't you give your husband a good luck kiss? Minos said.
Okay, why not. Xin replied and hurriedly pushed her face towards Minos and pecked him on his cheek.
You get a kiss when you're back, Xin said.
So that means I can't die. You better wait for me, Minos said before moving out.
An hour had passed. Minos and the warriors of the Akabba's clan, 100 in number to be precise, were already positioned at the entrance of the village, 5 km away from the barrier.
They waited another 40 minutes, and then the war began. The dark council's warriors transformed and charged at the clan.
Seeing this, Minos immediately channeled his ki and released Eren, as he planned to let her fight for a while.
Channeling his ki, Minos activated partial transformation on his limbs; arms and legs, and charged forward.
The first man attacked Minos, but before he could send a punch, his head was already on the floor, a few meters away from his body. The same thing happened to the first five cloaks that approached Minos.
After fighting for an hour, the troops from the Akabba's clan were reduced to eight people who seemed to be hiding behind Minos, as most of them were already scarred for life after seeing their brothers, family, and friends lose their lives in their presence.
The dark cult decided to ignore them and focused on the person that could be a threat: Minos. They tried surrounding Minos, but Eren would never let that happen, as she breathed fire, burning the people who got too close to Minos.
Minos continued fighting with all he had, his claws stained with the blood of a hundred cult members.
Even still, every fiber of his being told him that he couldn't win. His so-called troops were wiped out in an hour and the remaining ones just remained frozen. What a waste.
The dark cult, after many attempts, managed to capture Eren and locked her in a cage, which helped them to surround Minos.
Seeing this, Minos tried breaking his limit there and then, as that was the only way he could defeat the soldiers that surrounded him.
He kept pushing and pushing, and forcefully channeled his ki to 100% and immediately activated full transformation.
Zing
Full transformation in 3…2…1
Zing
His muscles began to enlarge, brown fur started forming over his skin, and his horn started to sprout from his head as he released a deafening roar.
Grabbing the nearest man, Minos slammed him heavily on the floor and began a full massacre as he cleared the cult members, dropping their numbers to the last ten. Seeing all of their warriors die in a flash, the last ten members formed a circle and began to chant. Within a minute, nine of them dropped to the ground dead and the last man standing's magic aura instantly changed. Minos used his beast eyes to calculate how powerful the change was. In a blink of an eye, the man appeared close to Minos and tried to punch him, but his hand was caught without Minos using much force. He tried again and the result was similar. With his two hands locked by Minos' strong grip, the last cloaked man tried pushing himself away from Minos, but to no avail, as Minos wouldn't budge. Minos decided to retaliate and started punching the man until he was bleeding all over. Minos then decided to perform his signature hulk smash on the guy, as even with his fearsome powers, he was nothing but a toy in the eyes of Minos.
After a while, Minos activated the sword of Theseus from the system and pierced the heart of the man casually, as the sword swallowed his soul. Signaling the end of the war, Minos decided to go back to the village as the sole survivor of the war, checking up on his fellow soldiers and finding none breathing. He quickly went over to Eren's cage and freed her before absorbing her back to his body. Nearing the entrance of the village, he saw many villagers gathered by the barrier, waiting to see the results. Seeing his dear wife among the villagers brought a smile to his face.
A few steps to the barrier, Minos felt a powerful energy close by, but couldn't pinpoint it. In a blink of an eye, a dark powerful beam fell upon Minos and the pain caused by the beam became unbearable for even Minos to bear, as he screamed and soon after lost consciousness.
Xin's POV
It had been a while now since Minos left and I had been sitting in one spot, waiting for him, praying silently for his well-being, when I suddenly caught a glimpse of Minos walking towards the barrier, his body covered with blood. Seeing him, my smile grew wider and stopped within the next second, as a black lightning struck Minos and the sound of his scream echoed in my ear.
Open the barrier, open the barrier now, he's dying. Open the barrier, please. I screamed as I saw Minos in pain, but no one listened. Tears dropped from my eyes as I saw the lifeless body of Minos falling to the ground.
T/L= Till Monday, y'all.
