Chapter 570: Forbidden Magic
It was done in the impulse of the moment.
Eunid let the knife fall from his hand. He swallowed hard as he looked at the mess he had done.
Arid’s neck gushed out blood and so did his abdomen. he raised a hand, trying to close rthe wound, but it was a fatal hit. Nothing he did could ever prevent it.
With Nora still on his back, he staggard forward, Barely firing a blast of his spiritual energy against the core beast scorpion. The core beast was crushed to paste by this, which made the second core beast back away.
Arid staggard back and forth and the crowd watched this moment attentively. Regardless of how the battle had progressed so far, it was without a doubt that Arid had lost. But it was not just the battle that he lost, he also lost his life.
Arid fell face first to the ground.
As he did, he tried to talk, his eyes fixed on Eunid’s face as the webbing of the poison in his veins spread like the roots of a tree.
"My... birthright!" He muttered once more, before his still opened eyes never moved again. He was dead.@@@@
For a second, the entire arena was quiet. After all, this was not some random fight, but an actual son of the family losing their life.
And then Eunid immediately rushed for Nora. He picked her up, from the ground. She too had been poisoned, but the hole on her body seemed to absorb the poison as she steadily healed.
This was something that absolutely surprised him.
Carefully, he helped her to her feet, even though he was really tired.
At such a time, Old fang, the well known butler of the family jumped from his seat into the arena, and then he walked towards the body of Arid. He placed a finger on his neck.
He sighed as he turned to the luxury box in the distance and then he nodded.
Mulligan nodded back. He understood what the old butler was saying. Gently, through his pain, he stood to his feet, "Eunid wins!"
The Crowd immediately bubbled with the uproar of victory.
It was an incredible sight to see. Many celebrated while some threw down flowers on Eunid as he held Nora close to his chest.
Old fang turned to him, "you should at least give them a smile, young master. You have proven yourself and these are your people."
Slowly, Eunid raised a hand.
And the crowd went even wilder than before. At the same time, Night mistress also rejoiced, turning to Pangubox and boldly stating, "Can you see, that’s my man. that’s my talking pumpkin."
Pangubox only chuckled at her declarations. Old fang walked up to Eunid, and help him with Nora, carrying her from his hands, and the two of them advanced to exit the arena. However, that was when it happened.
After which, Pangubox waved his hand and the beads returned to his neck. And then, on his magical carpet, he was taken back to the luxury box. "They may open their eyes now!" he whispered by Mulligan’s ears.
Mulligan nodded at him, "thank you Pangubox."
"Of course, anything for a future inlaw of mine."
"Open your eyes!" Mulligan gave the other.
And everyone opened their eyes. The tornado was gone, as if it was never there. The only things in the arena were the dried up corpses of the core beast scorpions and Old fang holding nora and Eunid, crouching at a corner.
Old fang and Eunid turned. the Arena was empty.
However, at such a time, a scream went out in all directions. It was a woman’s scream.
By her side, a man had been turned into a pillar of salt.
Pangubox frowned at this, "Its the price for looking upon forbidden magic." And then he turned to Mulligan, "I’ll advice that the corpse of salt be used to cook for the individual’s family for seven days or else the entire house old will become pillars of salt by the end of the week."
Mulligan frowned. This was the problem with magicians. Their energy source was too weird for anyone to comprehend.
Then again, Mulligan had a better idea on how to solve this. After all, telling a household to eat their family member that had become salt for a week was too much.
he walked forward as he backed out orders. "Pack up the immediate family of the deceased and kill them all. Punishment for disobedience to my order."
Immediately, soldiers rushed into the arena to do as their Partriach had commanded.
Pangubox chuckled a bit, "well not a bad way to solve the problem." he commented. and then he turned to Mistress Nightfall, "Come on now Angii, we have to go back in time for..." He paused. She was not at his side.
And then he looked below. She had made her way to Eunid.
She paused in front of him, her hands behind her back like a shy girl in front of her crush. "You did good today, Talking Pumpkin!" she took a step towards him.
It looked as if she was literally begging herself not to mount him and take a crunchy bite. She even leaned in, invading his space as she bit her lower lip.
"Thank you, Nightfall mistress..."
She frowned, and he corrected himself, "I mean Nightfall mistress." She giggled shyly. And then she turned to Nora, and her smile became a frown. "Is she your girlfriend or your slave toy?"
That question had come out of nowhere and actually left Eunid speechless.
She noticed this and turned to him, "tell me, betrothed, is she your..."
