Chapter 516 - Rudra Shows His Hand
2 hours passed slowly for Rudra , as he waited for the curse in his body to disperse completely.
He was paranoid about such things as his scheming mind made it difficult for him to trust others too , as he would always suspect a scheme from an enemy even when it was not the case.
Rudra was worried that the antidote that the devil gave would not completely cure him of the curse as there maybe a hidden ploy behind it. However his worries were for nothing as 2 hours later he got a system notification informing him that he was completely cured of the devil's curse.
System notification : The curse on your body has been lifted!
Rudra breathed a sigh of relief at this notification as he wiped the beads of perspiration formed on his forehead.
Now that his biggest fear had been dealt with , Rudra could start planning on how-to stab the devil in the back . As he told **G that it was showtime.
Rudra personally went to the holding cell where victor was being held captive as he released the man from his holding.
Victor laughed as he was starting to be freed as he mocked Rudra for his helplessness in having to give up the pages of the demons diary and now granting him freedom .
He said
" To be honest i did not trust you at all to keep your word and free me , i had came completely prepared to escape should that be the case.
It is funny how you thought that such elaborate restraints were enough to hold me , when you don't have mana cancellation installed in your holding cells.
I could have just used ' Blink ' and teleported outside you see , all these walls would then be for nay.
Soo next- time you bring a prisoner in , make sure you blindfold him on his way here and then install mana cancellation to make sure he does not use any tricks to escape . Foolish human
".
Rudra listened to what victor had to say and he had to say that he was impressed , what victor pointed out was indeed true , and it was something that Rudra had not thought about.
He had built this holding cell from the perspective of reality . However the same rules of reality do not apply themselves to the world of Omega. Hence he needed to think about such things in the future.
However as victor mocked him for being stupid , Rudra mocked victor in his heart to be stupid , as he silently sent a message to Fatty Kalash to install a mana cancellation inside the holding cell within the next 1 hour .
Because If everything went as Rudra planned , victor would be back here in less than 2 hours.
However not letting any of those emotions be displayed on his face Rudra pointed towards the exit as he personally lead Victor out of the Elite headquarters and towards the exit of Purplehaze city.
Victor was naturally on guard once he left the holding cell , as he did not like the 300 men envoy around him leading him out of city. His every move was being monitored by these black robed men all of whom had the same Assassin class.
It was **G's men who had completely encircled victor , as **G himself monitored the situation from distance.
Thanks to victors showboating Rudra now knew that he had blink as one of the moves of his arsenal , hence encircling him physically was stupid as he had the capability to teleport short distances . Hence as he approached the end of the city , the encirclement of the 300 men became very loose as they covered a very wide area.
Victor snarled at this as he asked Rudra
" Why are there soo many men following us ?
".
Rudra let a soft smile escape his face as he looked towards victor and said
" It's for your protection ofcourse , the contract forces me to ensure your safety and these are my guards to help me keep my word
".
*Snort * , Victor snorted at this response as he understood that these lethal assassins were by no means here for his safety . However in his heart he was sure that he could easily loose these tier 2 assassins if a fight broke out.
This arrogance of his was to be his downfall as although these assassins were indeed not his match. **G watching on in the shadows was.
Rudra took a moment to check his mirror to look at the location of victors two partners . Happy to see that the two of them were only about 6 killometers out from the capital. Waiting on a abandoned goat trail.
Everything was proceeding as planned , but this was the end of his role now , as everything that was soon to follow was upto **G and his squadron and Medivh in his mage tower . As he had no capabilities himself at the moment except to be the brains of this operation.
As they stood at the city wall , the exit had already been cleared of civilian traffic for the moment on Rudra's orders as there was noone around when the party reached there.
Rudra extended his hand towards victor as he said
" I know we have had our differences but i just want to let you know , that I am a changed man ….
"
Rudra started his bull**tery as he completely caught victor off-guard with it , enough for the assassins to take positions outside the city border to prevent victor from escaping .
When victor looked around to realize what was going on , Rudra made use of that opportunity to pull his arm and bring him out of the city border to void his contract , as the moment both his feet went outside the walls , the Elite assasins closed in on victor like a hound .
" You moth********
" shouted victor as he instantly used blink to teleport to safety. However since blink only had an effective range of 20 meters , he could only teleport so far before appearing before an assassin.
Victor picked his fight as he was lightning quick in dispatching some of the Elite assasins that initially came into conflict with him.
He was hoping to make short work of them before bolting off into the wild , relying on his superior speed to run off into the wild . However to his horror , from nowhere a powerful fireblast hit his back.
It was Furball! , She was absolutely fired up as victor had insulted Rudra in her presence not soo long ago. Now that she had the chance she was definitely not going to let him go.
" You little runt! I will skin you alive !
" Said victor as he used a skill move to increase his agility to the extreme and attack Furball.
However he had to stop midway as a dangerous man had his dagger pointed towards his throat.
It was **G! , Taking advantage of Furball's attack he finally found the opening required to close in on Victor without his chance to run away.
**G was waiting for the right moment to engage in battle as the priority for him was not to fight but to prevent victor from escaping should he pass the encirclement.
Only because that possibility was gone once Furball engaged did he pick his spot to enter the battle.
" BUNCH OF LIARS AND SCHEMERS
" , cursed victor as he was desperate in fighting **G , as he wanted to get out of here as soon as possible , but with every passing second more and more Elite assassins were positioning a tight perimeter around his location.
Victor had thought that noone would be his match amongst the Elite troops , yet he was struggling to keep his own against only **G. It was then that he realized how grim his situation was and how strong Rudra's planning really was .
In the next 3 minutes that followed **G managed to trade blows with victor as he whittled his hp down to 50% while loosing 60% of his own.
Although he was at a slight disadvantage , he had the environmental support and could step back at any moment to heal and come back in the fight.
However , **G too made a slight error in his judgement as victor although entrapped had one hidden card to his disposal that could help him escape.
Blink was not the only move he had in his arsenal as victor was a accomplished blood merchant member having many means.
When he found the right opportunity , he used ' Smog ' , releasing pitch black dark fog from his mouth as he created a smokescreen within seconds of using the move.
The elites panicked , as the visibility they had became 0 once the smokescreen was used , and hence they lost sight of victor.
Unfortunately , Karna was not present here at the moment and nobody else had the ability to see past the smoke.
Rudra panicked as he could feel his heart beating out of his chest , as he feared the worst.
Victor had smartly waited for the reset time for blink to go back to normal before using the smoke screen coupled with blink to escape from the encirclement.
As he moved with blistering speed towards the woods.
' IM FREE ' , Thought victor as he thought he had outsmarted all the elites and would manage to escape here today.
However he had celebrated just a moment too quick as just as he was about to enter the tree line , to lightning quick daggers impaled both his knees from behind sending him in a world of agony as he fell over.
" Agghhhhhh
" , screamed victor as he looked towards the enemy approaching towards his location.
He was a middle aged man walking with a cane sword in one of his hand while two daggers in another.
Jhonny English had arrived …..
