As Arad stared at the dying Baltos, Doma giggled inside his head. ^[Live Voodoo is an advanced curse that requires five people at least, a caster, a medium, a sacrifice, a victim, and a power source.]^
^[The caster starts by taking a bone from the sacrifice, burning it to ash, and then giving it to the medium. One has to feed it to the victim by any means possible. It has the advantage that it doesn't smell or trigger any poison detections as it's the same as eating animal meat. I mean, if you cooked human flesh and fed it to someone they won't make the difference.]^ As she explained how the curse works, Doma started casting her curse to overwrite the voodoo curse.
^[When the victim ingests the ash delivered by the medium, the caster then can kill the sacrifice to kill the victim as well. For assassinations, they usually poison the sacrifice so it dies like a normal death and thus the victim dies in the same way. But, it has a weakness, if the method of killing the sacrifice can't kill the victim, they can survive. That is why Kin is still standing there. The poison used on the sacrifice can't kill a dragon.]^
Thud! Arad grabbed Baltos's face in his palm, "Reverse Curse," A massive gust of curses rushed out of Arad's body as tattoos emerged on Baltos's face. He fell asleep as Arad glared to the side, staring at Alfred.
^[I bought us ten minutes. We can get another ten by knocking the medium unconscious. That's him,^
"You accursed monster!" Alfred shouted, pulling his sword.
CLAP! In the blink of an eye. Arad blitzed behind him, shattering the blade with a smile.
"GAH!" Alfred gasped, turning around to look for Arad.
CLENSH! The moment Alfred turned, Arad caught him by the shirt and lifted him up, smiling. "You're the medium,"
"I'm the..." Alfred cried. CRACK! Arad punched him in the face. CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
Arad unleashed a barrage of punches, shattering all of Alfred's ribs, his jaw and bones all cracked, and his teeth fell to the ground as blood splashed all across the room.
As Arad stopped throwing punches, Alfred's body burst into flames for a second, searing all of his wounds. "Now you won't bleed to death, and shall never wake up." He threw the half-dead Alfred on the ground.
"What?" Finally, Charlie gasped.
Arad turned toward Gojo, opening his palm and sending a small orb of light. "Track this and Kill the owner, there should be a sacrifice there, bring it to me."
Gojo smiled, "At once." He snatched the ball, opening his eyes and looking into the sky. "Four thousand kilometers to the north, I will be back in half an hour." He lifted one finger.
BAM! EirwanKari lunged forth, swinging his claw at Gojo. CLAP! Arad caught his wrist, "Who the hell are you? I know, the power source." Arad glared at him with a smile.
"You just killed the price of a kingdom!" EirwanKari Growled at Arad. "Do you think you will get away with that?"
"I don't care, you two tried to kill my father-in-law. Only death awaits you!" Arad replied with a grin.
"He tried to marry me," Isdis said in the back.
Arad's smile disappeared and veins bulged on his head, "He what?" CRACK! EirwanKari's wrist snapped in Arad's palm.
CLING! Gojo teleported away, rushing as fast as he could to kill the caster and bring the sacrifice.
"Arad! What are you talking about?" Kin growled, confused about who to strike. But she would rather not harm him.
"Someone tried to kill Baltos with an advanced Voodoo curse, those two are the medium and power source for it," Arad replied, clenching a fist and swinging at EirwanKari's face.
EirwanKari Lifted his palm to catch Arad's fist, but the punch's raw power won and he smacked him with enough force to send him flying across the castle walls.
CRACK! BAM! BAM! CRACK! EirwanKari's body rolled across the walls, shattering them until reached the royal garden, stopping at the large fountain.
^Is this Arad, Isdis's husband? What the fuck is this raw power and curses flowing from him? It's even more disgusting than our old hag,^ He stood, glaring forward as Arad walked out of broken walls, cracking his fists.
He would usually pull a sword to fight, but not this time. This dragon didn't only try to kill Baltos, he also tried stealing Isdis. Fists are the only solution.
"What are you?" EirwanKari growled, standing and summoning a tome in his hand, "A dragon, I can sense the oppressive magic rushing out of your body.
BAM! Arad didn't bother replying and lunged forth, swinging a fist at EirwanKari's face.
CLANG! EirwanKari deflected the attack, their scales boomed like steel clashing.
DING! Isdis pulled the strings on her Biwa, standing on top of the balcony and shouting as loud as she could, "Kill the dragon!"
CLACK! CLACK! CLACK! Guards emerged on top of the walls, pointing their crossbows at EirwanKari.
BAM! The paladin general lunged over the wall, his blade glowing with a bright golden light, "I sense curses," He glared at Arad.
"Idiot!" Charlie shouted from the balcony, "That fucking scale face lizard and brother Alfred tried to curse father. Arad is holding their curse back!" The prince jumped from the balcony, breaking his fall on a tree. He then ran toward the paladin general, "I will fight as well,"
Thud! Prince Thomas stood at the balcony, holding a staff in his hand, "Brother, you aren't a fighter so stand back," He waved the staff, "Sister, I will put a barrier," He looked at Isdis before casting his magic.
[Prismatic Barrier] A multicolored wall of force covered the castle, "I don't think this will prevent him from running away, but it's the best I can do,"
Isdis smiled, playing her Biwa, "Arad! Here is a song for you,"
Arad could feel his body getting hotter, his senses getting sharper as his stamina regeneration accelerated. The spell Isdis used was a buff that reduced the target's sense of pain, raised its morale, and increased its strength and stamina regeneration. A stable spell that the drummers of war always used when their army went to battle.
The paladin's general smiled, lifting his sword, "Curses are like shit. I respect a man that swims in it to save the king," He glared at EirwanKari, "Today you die by my blade, invader,"
Thud! Arad walked forward, tapping the paladin on his shoulder, "Touch him, and I will rip you apart. He's my prey," Arad growled, "You deal with the others,"
"Others?" The general gasped, looking around.
CRACKLE! From the sky, hundreds of ice spears fell on the capital, piercing the streets. "What is this?" He cried.
EirwanKari put his hands together, "No matter how confident a dragon is, we never move without backup," He smiled, [Thousand Frozen dolls]
The ice shared expanded into Giant Ice golems, throwing the whole capital into chaos.
"I will deal with the dragon, you save the capital," Arad walked forward cracking his shoulder.
"You can't kill a dragon alone. We must fight together. The other paladins can save the city," The general insisted.
"Let Arad fight alone," Isdis shouted from the balcony, "This isn't the first dragon he killed, and it won't be the last,"
The general remembered that Arad was supposed to have fended off a purple dragon and saved Isdis. Purples are far stronger than white dragons.
"Fine," The general turned.
"Aella, Zephyr, Eris, help them fight off the golems," Arad shouted as he lunged forward, and the first two to show up in the sky were Eris and Zephyr.
Two massive purple wings of plasma, the burning body that sheds a bright light. The crimson butterfly of death smiled, lifting her spear into the sky, "Who dares interrupt my time!" She growled.
"Oh my! Oh my!" Zephyr giggled by her side, "Aella, you can start blasting,"
Aella stood at the highest peak of the castle, watching over the city with her bow in hand. She closed her eyes, only seeing through Zephyr's vision and getting a view of the city. She pulled the string of her bow, taking a deep breath before releasing a shot.
Aella's green arrow flew silently across the building, twisting and turning with the wind until it hit the first Golem, shattering into pieces.
"One done," Zephyr said with a smile, "Let's see, there are...over two thousand remaining,"
Aella grunted, she could one-shot the ice golems, but can only do it three at a time. This means it would take her a little over eleven minutes to finish them all. In the meantime, everyone else has to survive.
She smiled, "No, she isn't alone," She stared at Eris who flew to the city with a grin. With all of their powers combined and the paladins, this fight shall not take over three minutes.
CRACK! Arad punched EirwanKari, "Die!"
^Even if I can't beat him alone, I can consume him into void expansion and then unleash Orion's constellation with the wyrmwolf. Even he won't survive that,^
