Uilles readied himself as he watched the man in front of him with uncertainty.
The fact that he had downed 'Dursa's Poison' was terrifying, it was a horrible potent drug. Though Uilles didn't know what it exactly consisted of he knew of the effects that it had on people.
Consuming it gave one ridiculous power and a surge of energy that was highly addictive in nature. A couple of drops would give you the strength and ferocity of an adult *Morgrave, it also was said to create a kind of madness and bloodlust. A violent need to kill.
And Ravros had downed a whole vial of it.
He watched the man in front of him softy snicker and the glint in the man’s eyes change, one of unspeakable lust and desire, as the veins in the man’s neck and face suddenly became visible as if the ‘poison’ showed itself travelling through the body as its effects started. From thin and wiry purple lines to those with an angrier shade of Mauve as his eyes darkened. They seemed unfocussed for a moment before they honed in on him and all hell broke loose.
Just as Uilles had send ki down to strengthen his legs Ravros suddenly swung his blade recklessly towards him, with such power and speed that he had barely caught it with his own.
Sparks had flown as the blades had clashed, with Uilles needing both his arms to hold his own weapon as the thunderous powerful one armed slams came crashing down upon it. Every time the offensive blade came closer to his face and neck and despite the amount of ki he had send down, he felt his own body be forced backwards with every blow.
“What’s the matter Venray? Where is your might now?” Ravros laughed mockingly as he hammered on easily casting aside a rare attack that Uilles could send back. The General was driving the knight backwards, towards the edge of the ship. He would make an example out of him.
The whole of Belisio would see their hero for the weak fool he truly was.
Uilles clenched his jaws and gritted his teeth as he desperately tried to hold his ground but realized that he wouldn’t be able to keep this up. Feeling the strain on his lame leg sapping away his ki he felt he needed a way out, a way to swing things back into his favour.
“Damn you!” Uilles growled forcing all his strength in a dive forward taking Ravros head on pivoting his body and grabbing Ravros’s swordarm, bypassing the sword and throwing him half up and over him, allowing himself some necessary time to get back towards the center of the deck.
Enraged at this clever move Ravros picked up a second blade from one of the fallen soldiers and charged back at Uilles, who now had twice the danger to watch out for. Though the swings were powerful they were less calculated and Uilles hoped he could use that as his advantage, provided he managed to block the offensive strikes and keep his ground.
Ravros meanwhile was seething at the mouth, his teeth coloured in the same dark liquid he had drank but moments ago.
“I am going to kill you Venray! I am going to hack you into pieces! Limb from limb!”
“You’re going to have to hit me first, Ravros!” He goaded replied before having to jump backwards from the swing at his legs, before catching the other aimed at his neck. He glanced the blow off but couldn’t hold off the other blade that had moved upwards and dug into his armour at his side.
A sharp pain follow as he watched the blade draw back, its metal painted red by his blood.
Loud euphoric laughter rang from Ravros’s mouth as he watched the knight grasp at his side with one hand, the red liquid dripping onto the deck.
“I hope that wasn’t a kidney Uilles.” He cackled seeing the knight in pain.
“Maybe now you realize your future, your life and that of Belisio are numbered and the clock is quickly counting down. Don’t worry though, I’ll take the pleasure of slaying you before your little kingdom crumbles. I’ll make sure your legacy is erased…no one will believe you ever existed.”
Uilles breathed heavily as he watched Ravros like a hawk.
“If I die, I will join my forebears my soul will be in tact unlike yours. I know who I am and unlike you I don’t live for vengeance alone.”
“I will break your wings raptor.” Ravros promised. “I will break your spirit and I will make certain your soul will be broken too!” He vowed as he raised both his blades. He would cut the man to shreds. He would finish this once and for all.
