Chapter 100: Marvin and the King
Chapter 100: Marvin and the King
The instant the fight began, Marvin lifted his hands and pointed his forefingers towards King who stood at the opposite side of the arena.
"Hmm, what are you playing it?" King's eyes dangerously narrowed as he saw Marvin pointing his forefinger right at him. "I'll have you know I don't take kindly to being pointed at. The last one who did so had her entire family ex"
Marvin had already labelled King as a delusional psychopathic person who needed to be crushed before being killed. He didn't allow the King to finish his words before he started shooting mana bullets as if using a Ak-47.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
Along with these resounding reverberations, several mana bullets swiftly traveled through the air, aiming to blast King's body and claim his life, but the King wasn't sitting idle either. He instantly activated his King's Ability to rightfully use "Ice Shield".
Dozens of ice shields instantly materialized right in front of him, protecting him from the mana bullets.
The mana bullets shattered the ice shields. A lot of ice shards sprinkled on the arena floor, and a chilling fog diffused in the surrounding which suddenly dropped the surrounding temperature by dozens of degrees.
"He doesn't stand a chance against King!"
The spectators were horrified and amazed to see the King completely unharmed.
"What just happened? I couldn't follow up at all,"
Some didn't understand what happened in the arena, for they weren't able to follow the mana bullets.
"All Hail the King!"
The Queen shouted out loudly, cheering for the King and trying to boost his morale while dampening Marvin's.
"All Hail the King!"
"All Hail the King!"
"All Hail the King!"
Undoubtedly, everyone cheers for the King.
Fatty Liam did shout out his brother's name but his voice was silenced by the crowd.
"Condensing magic power at the tip of the fingers to shoot out projectiles that have more piercing strength than bullets. What an interesting way to use magic power." The King's eyes flickered in a calculating light. "Now, it's my turn to attack."
Suddenly, a lot of mental power surged out of his body and the ice shards scattered on the floor floated up and erupted straight towards Marvin with an incredible speed.
Seeing the King using another ability, Marvin was somewhat surprised but he wasn't amazed.
'First ice ability and now telekinesis! Maybe he awakened two abilities.'
To dodge the dozens of ice that rained down on him from the front, Marvin empowered his right foot with magic power before slamming it down on the arena floor.
Ghost Step
The ice shards passed through Marvin's afterimage before he abruptly appeared right behind King.
Marvin utilizing the Magic Empowered Martial Arts skill thrust his Inquisitor Dagger at the back of the King's head; however, the King ducked down at the appropriate moment causing Marvin's dagger to only claim three hair strands.
It was as if he had eyes behind his back. More specifically, a sensory type ability!
Immediately after that, King kicked Marvin in the knees. However, it felt like he punched a sturdy piece of iron rather than a person.
"What?"
"Say goodbye to the world!"
Marvin dagger rushed down to behead the King
However, the King once again used an entirely different ability to appear 12 meters away from Marvin, causing Marvin's dagger to pierce into the floor.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
As the King stood up, ice spears materialized out of thin air and rushed ahead to impale Marvin.
Marvin easily hopped back to evade the ice spears.
"Do you now understand why I am called King?" The King majestically said, and although he seemed to be the loser in their exchanges, the King's arrogance didn't diminish even by a single bit.
"The amount of abilities you used is unnatural, and I assume you are borrowing these abilities from your subjects. Thus, the reason behind the imperialist name." Marvin's calm voice boosted by Magic Power echoed throughout the arena.
Even in this situation, he showed zero amazement.
"That's my ability, the rarest amongst all of the human race. I can use the ability of everyone who serves me. You have no chance of defeating me. I was born with the fate of becoming the king of the human race. To conquer the galaxies, I will need a lot of generals and servants. With the number of abilities you have used I consider you a rare talent. I can forgive your earlier trespassing if you kneel before me and vow to serve me."
The King announced. He had never considered Earth and Camelot as a goal. These two worlds were just a stepping for him, and his aim was always to dominate the galaxies. Moreover, he wanted to have his hands over Marvin's abilities. Clearly, Marvin had also used multiple impressive abilities or so the king thought.
Meanwhile, Marvin was busy clearing his ear with his pinkie.
"Did you just activate the ability to bark like a dog?" Marvin taunt, "Besides, do you think I am blind or brainless? Sure, you can use a lot of ability but you can only use one at a time. Lastly, this is a deathmatch and I won't be stepping out of this arena until ripping your head off."
The atmosphere heated up by some degrees as his eyes dangerously glared at the king.
The King's ability had only one weakness, and Marvin guessed it right, and this weakness will only go away after the King becomes an Ability Manipulator.
Marvin's refusal to serve caused the King's mood to darken.
"Foolish till the very end,"
He immediately activated another one of his subjects ability to turn into a humanoid cheetah. His hands and feet took the shape of claws, and his figure expanded to become three meters tall, he threw himself at Marvin with an incredible speed.
The King's strength and speed have increased by more than three times. Marvin also rushed towards the king.
The students were shocked.
"Marvin's too arrogant. He dared to approach King who is using a bestial transformation ability. Don't he know that bestial transformation ability users are best at close combat? Yet, he is approaching him to face King's fatal blow."
"He forgot the basics. He should have at least kept his distance and fought king from afar by using his projectiles."
Bestial transformation allows a person to gain all the aspects of a beast. This ability also heightens one's combat abilities. According to their teachings, the students were led to believe that Marvin has committed a mistake due to arrogance.
The Queen was overjoyed. "This idiot will be ripped apart by the King's claw."
In the blink of an eye, they were face to face. The King kept clawing at Marvin, while Marvin evaded all his attacks by moving left and right at an incredible speed. Boosted by Magic power, Marvin was faster than the King by a notch.
"How long will you be able to keep on evading my attacks like a rat? You can't dodge forever. Your magic power must already be running thin!" King said while clawing at Marvin.
The King's words would surely be right, but in Marvin's case, it was entirely wrong. Marvin had an impressive Magic Power recovery rate. His Magic Power was recovering by 1.2 Magic Power units per second.
Besides, being called a rat was offsetting. Marvin poured a lot of magic power in his right legs and launched a powerful kick at King's face in rage. The King also launched his muscled and hairy leg at him.
Bomb!
The kick sends King gliding through the arena floor. If not for the fact that his claws were drilled inside the floor, he would be sent flying.
Unbelievable!
The students were surprised to see that the King was forced back by Marvin's kick.
The King looked strangely at Marvin before his gaze turned stern. 'How can he so easily empower his body with magic power. How can an ability like that even exist? I must not prolong the fight.'
Since he couldn't make Marvin serve him, the best choice was to instantly kill him.
The King returned to his base form and instantly he utilized his most powerful ability to create numerous weapons made out of ice.
The arena on King's side was being covered by numerous icy weapons.
"This is my last attack. If you are able to survive this then you are allowed to take my head!" The King said he was acting like he's humble in both victory and defeat. However, he internally smirked. Because his most powerful will surely kill Marvin.
"Listen well, I have been playing with you since the start of this match. I know it's hard to believe, but I haven't used even half my strength." Marvin calmly said before the Inquisitor Dagger clutched in his hand began to absorb his magic power and condense an unbelievable amount of strength at its tip, "Even though you are so unworthy that I got bored while playing with you, even though the weapon in my hand is not a sword, even then I will butcher you like a pig to make everything better!"
"What bullshit. Die!"
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Marvin was in the middle of his words when the King launched the numerous icy weapons at him, and Marvin also slashed his dagger.
Myriad-shaped immortal Vanishing Sword Slash
His average length dagger released a sword beam which magnified in both length and width while flying straight ahead. His slash took the shape of a big spherical sphere that seemed like a version of the world.
"Crackle!"
The sword beam shattered the numerous icy weapons and proceeded forward in an all-conquering fashion.
What?
King was greatly horrified. He never expected that his ultimate attack will be broken so easily by Marvin's attack.
The King tried to make a run for it but he wasn't even able to blink his eyes, what more utilize his magic power to use an ability. Marvin's eyes brightened in a silver hue was staring right at him, after all.
The King watched as the magnified sword beam condensed into a thin line and reached all the way up to him.
Si*
The sword slash chopped his body into perfect half. The King even caught a glimpse of his own body halves before Marvin turned off Time halt and the King's lost the last bit of life left in his eyes.
The two halves of the King's body fell on the ground with a hearable thud. Blood flowed from his chopped body ceaselessly.

Marvin heard Noah's mechanical words, notifying him of successful face slapping.
The King has died!
Sigh~
Marvin felt disappointed.
Shouldn't a boss like the King have a rebirth ability?
