Chapter 634 COLD!
( A few moments ago )
Rudra was perfectly prepared for the incoming dragon emperor destruction attack. The only reason why he could no evade it the previous time was because of the stupid Cerberus dog and the fact that his blink was on cooldown. However this time he had blink available.
Lying in wait , Rudra silently activated [ cloud feet ] as the first break of dawn signalled the start of a new day as the horizon started to brighter little by little.
The key here was to wait till the last possible second before evading , to make it look like he was actually hit!
The entire act needed to be extremely convincing for people to buy it and luckily Rudra had the perfect move for it.
Right as the Shaman used the dragon emperor destruction , Rudra let the dragon approach him , before using unparalleled gaming skills and peak level prediction and control to use the move [ Circumvent ]
Unilaterally retreating alongside the driection of the attack , Rudra made it seem like the dragons head was the one that was pushing him back as he leaned back and his feet produced absolutely no friction.
For the common player who could barely make a blurry image , it seemed like Shakuni had been engulfed in a direct hit. However right before the attack could actually land , Rudra used blink and teleported quietly to a few meters away on the battlefield.
With the entire world's attention being on the dragon attack and it's raw power as it tore through the city wall and buildings . Nobody paid attention to Rudra who had silently laid down on the battlefield , blending as one of the dead.
This was an incredibly difficult move to pull off and it needed absolute confidence and precise control in one's skills as Rudra literally danced with death as he tried to fake getting hit by the move.
Not only was the dragon travelling incredibly fast , had he only been a few centimetres slower he would have been engulfed inside the dragon with no room for retreat.
Considering the power of the beast , this time it would have been death for sure!
But now that he wasn't dear , it was time for a sneak attack!
Rudra watched without moving an inch as the Elite soldiers despaired his death and the merchants rejoiced.
The shaman also laughed his heart out as he gave the order to the merchant troops to push as if he was scar-face , before sneakily retreating himself.
In his moment of pride and ignorance , the shaman had his guard down as he did not expect Shakuni to attack out of nowhere once more.
Hence with his back exposed to Shakuni lying on the ground , the shaman walked slowly as he savoured the taste of victory.
He even had the gall to call Hades a bastard as he looked towards the sky and cursed him , however it was this one short moment that was enough to cost him his life.
Grim Reaper in his right hand , Rudra charged in a lightning quick fashion as he used the move
[ death slash] of the sword grim reaper , to triple the critical damage of the neck strike.
With the shaman's HP still being in a dangerous orange region , the attack was enough to kill him as his head was slit clean off his throat and both him and Scar-Face lost their lives.
Poor scar-face was constantly screaming inside the shaman's head to let his body go , and that he would make him suffer once he regains control . However the shaman paid him no heed as he knew that overtime scar-face would grow silent , just like the others.
However with that one neck strike the both of them lost their lives .
Rudra even went as far as to pick up the severed head of the fallen body as he reminded the shaman of his worst fear yet.
As he sent his soul directly to the underworld.
*********
Although Rudra was not a barbarian who would usually carry around severed heads of his enemies . He knew that he needed to make a statement this time around , hence he picked up scar-face's head and walked through the Battlefield as he showed the world who the winner of that fight eventually was.
The severed head in one hand , and grim reaper in another , shakuni walked coldly through the city of Purplehaze as the grim reaper slid across the floor making sparks.
Blood dripped from the severed head of scar-face as Rudra walked slowly parading it around as he struck fear in every single blood merchant who saw this scene.
Unlike Rudra's fake death news , the severed head in Shakuni's hand told a completely different tale as although no words were spoken , everyone understood with irrefutable evidence that Scar-Face the general of the blood merchants , had fallen to shakuni of the Elites.
Rudra himself was not in a great condition. His left hand holding the severed head barely moved , while his backpain was killing him after performing the death slash.
His walk was slow not because he wanted it to be slow , but because it was the only pace where he could walk at the moment.
Blood dripped from his open wounds and he looked as if he was bathed in blood , his own and the enemies from top to bottom as his walk albeit slow was extremely powerful and fear inducing.
Everyone parted to a side where shakuni passed by , elite or merchant as Rudra's aura itself was enough for every enemy to piss in their pants , especially when he carried their strongest general's head in his arms.
No words needed to be spoken by Rudra . As the blood merchants rallied the news around all sectors themselves.
Panic and fear in their voices , they rushed around and told their brethren about the severed head of their leader , as the headlines were that
" Our leader scar-face has fa-fallen in battle at the hands of Shakuni of the Elites !!!!? ".
