The words of Noah struck Alex.

And particularly the term miasma had caused him to think whether this was the aftermath of his action two years ago or if someone had a hand in it.

This was enough for him to think about the matter a little.

But no matter what, he really had to admire Noah’s courage.

For now, he is a big villain for Kinley but for Arkham, he has grown up and become their backbone.

In this situation, he was their only hope and means of survival.

He was a talent that had been recognized by everyone, whether it was inside or outside the nation.

Because of the bold systematic judgement, Alex acknowledged their ability of Noah.

For a moment, he sympathises with his ambition though it was very small…

But so what…

From what Noah was implying, their condition was bad because of this miasma, not the war with demons.

The miasma is destroying their lands and in doing so destroying their source of life.

Was there no other way for Arkhams to survive rather than waging this war? If there is such a strong problem with miasma then shouldn’t they contact the church which is an independent organisation and doesn’t belong to a particular nation?

After all, two years ago Kinley had gone through the same disaster but it was able to solve the case.

Athena’s presence had only hastened the process. Which took another day to purify, Athen needed only a few minutes.

Arkham should also have its Saintess so even if it took months she should be able to purify the land.

So, instead of trying to find a way to get rid of miasma, you took several men and came here to show your might and preach your sorrows.

If this isn’t being then what?

And more than that, Alex didn’t like when someone give him choice and threaten him with his wife’s name

‘Even if I die, my wives are strong enough to defend themselves and cause havoc in Arkham to take revenge on my behalf.’ Alex’s lips curled upwards with a sinister smile and his gaze fell on Jack who breathed heavily.

Aaakkk!

Hearing the scream, Noah spoke hastily from another side.

What is going on? What are you doing? Stop it

Alex had stabbed his sword into Jack’s thigh. And thanks to the sound barrier which Alex enacted around the place, no one outside the barrier was able to hear the screams.

Alex strongly pressed the sword and twisted it slowly exerting strong pressure which made Jack scream even more.

“Arghhhh!”

“Kuakkk!”

Jack’s expression was distorted due to the deep pain and he tried to wriggle all around.

The wound on his chest which had been closed by Alex opened once again and blood spurted from it.

Alex cast a minor healing spell in that area and the muscles and veins around the place joined to the sword.

Jack felt a different sensation. Though the pain lessened abruptly, his body trembled with fear thinking about what Alex was going to do.

His heart was beating wildly, and his chest rose up and down.

His vision was already fading away due to his mind being devastated by pain and terror.

The gap on Jack’s thigh closed with the sword struck but as Alex twisted more, everything around that spot ruptured once again.

“I am stabbing and torturing your precious man so that he could emit the sweet hymn of pain.”

“Oh! What a heavenly melody?” Alex spoke sarcastically.

“Did you hear it, Noah Ark?”

“How is the sweet sound of pain?”

“Please leave me the review so I could prophet train my torture skills.”

Damn you! You mad psychopath. You are not normal. You are insane you damn asshole

Over the call, Noah was sweating profusely.

pan-d a-n0vel.com Never ever in life had he met such a broken person.

A hoarse heavy voice along with a loud grasp echoed from the other side.

Kill him if you what but don’t torture him.No matter how much enmity we have, we have to at least respect our enemy. They are fighting for a noble cause so they deserve proper death.

“Do you think that I am a Saint? You send your men and want my head and I should just offer it like that cause?”

“Your Empire is in a mess and so to show our sympathy, we soldiers of Kinley should offer our head or retreat without fighting,” Alex shouted.

“Every villain had his circumstances. Dedication is a good thing but if you are dedicated to the wrong cause or achieve your goals by the wrong means, you are nothing but rotten wood which can never be carved and used anywhere?”

“Just because one of your men tortured, you are uttering all those bull**s then what about the number of lives lost by Kinley till now. When soldiers of yours died here, ten had died from our sides.”

“No matter what, it was you who crossed the border and slaughtered the innocent soldiers so stop barking like a coward. Just as you care about your country, I care about my men?”

“Listen to me carefully Noah ark, for every single drop of blood of my man, I would make my enemies pay and I don’t care whether you are an individual, an organisation, an Empire or a powerhouse standing on the apex of strength as long as my man and my wives are harmed, I will slaughter everyone till the end.”

Hearing Alex’s words, Noah realised that he had made a grave mistake. Alex wasn’t a normal man.No matter what choices or reasons are given, he does what he wants and strives forward to what is right.

He was just like a psychopath who behaved like a normal man but just when one touched their reverse scale, their maniac side would take over.

His words carried a powerful momentum and the confidence that Alex spoke terrified Noah, and even more, how can a sane person ever think about going against the whole world?

“Ahhhhhh!”

Jack yelled in pain and the pain in his thigh bone being pierced and twisted wasn’t something he could suppress thus he screamed in despair to the point, tears oozed out from his eyes.

Alex didn’t know Jack nor he had any personal enmity but he had only heard that this man wanted his head and exchanged it for 1000 gold coins which were enough to put this man on his wanted list.

Alex didn’t give a ** to values or justice. As long as he believes he was right, there is no stopping him.

Arkham may be in the worst situation but when Kinley is attacked, as the citizen of Kinley and a former Prince, it was his sole duty and right to retaliate and because of that he never had any complicated thoughts and there was no need to back down.

Alex had shown his hostility clearly and even warned Noah.

Alex knew that Noah had a full grasp of the situation and set up many camps but Alex decided that until they backed down, he would send a chill down the spine.

He remembered the Devil’s words.

‘It’s not the victory that matters rather the way the victory is achieved. I am not telling you to use cheap or hideous tricks, but to show your enemies the true meaning of despondency and horror. Make the fear etch deep down their hearts so that every time they raise their weapons, they think a thousand times.’

‘You need to be a man who cannot be offended.’

And that’s why if Arkham didn’t give in, Alex would show them the true terror.

Without any further words, Alex cut and killed Jack after making him howl and scream in pain until his throat was unable to produce any sounds.

Noah cut off the call and closed his eyes, unable to let go of the screams.

Noah felt that he had touched someone which he shouldn’t have.

After cutting the call, Noah stood silently like a statue while suppressing his overflowing anger.

‘He is dangerous. He is more fatal and poisonous than I thought.’

A normal person would have gone down after a threat or thought for a moment but Alex was saying something like that”Try me if you can but no matter what I will crush you all even if I have to go down with you.”

Although Alex knows just how dire their situation was, he was still daring enough to send Jack’s life as a warning.

Just the point of getting ignored and disobeying by Alex made Noah’s heart boil. It was a humiliation and shame that he would never forget in his life.

And never in his life, he was treated like this.

The other side didn’t even give a damn about his words for a second.

Behind him, another general stood and asked Noah”What will we do now?’

“We have to get rid of that pest no matter what. Mobilize all the troops right now and form a seize and surround the entire Terror of Ranvier. Catch him whether he is dead or alive”

“If he is alive, I will torture him and cut each of his flesh to avenge the death of my precious soldiers.”

“This time, I will personally oversee the situation so that nothing odd happens.”

“Leave some troops to guard the defence lines and also all the generals will accompany me.”

“If the situation requires, I will even deploy my trump card.”

Seeing Noah’s anger and resoluteness, General Zhang nodded and said”I will obey your order and bring down that scum.”
