Last Ruler Of The Empty Throne-Chapter 78: A King?

The fight went into silence as Gar’al killed the second duke.

"H-He really killed another duke."

"S-Should we actually surrender?"

"We still have the king."

The evolvers gathered together after the sudden stop on the battlefield. Most people from the ’kingdom’ lost their lives, with the dukes dead, what hope did they have? And the death was minimal on Cynthia’s team and allies.

While the rebels fought, Cynthia’s team assisted them. Robin’s dagger took their heads, Tim and his partner’s arrows took their lives with a shot, and Alexa and Cynthia were so casual about it.

It wasn’t a battle but a massacre. And after everything that had happened, they knew they couldn’t rejoice because it wasn’t over.

And as if to remind them of that, the glass at the top of the tallest building cracked, and a figure jumped out.

Afterwards, two other figures jumped and landed on the ground,

BOOOOM

After the dust settled, the figure could be seen,

"K-King"

"The king is finally here."

"We can live now."

The evolvers were happy at the arrival of their king, Killian. Killian, though, just looked around the battlefield with a calm gaze. Then his eyes stopped at Gar’al,

"You truly are a beast," Killian muttered as he looked at Gar’al. Then he suddenly said, "You, come and work under me. You will have everything you want." Even till this point, he was trying to act like one.

But, maybe because of his audacity, he repeated the same thing he had been saying since the beginning, "Surrender or die."

"What?" Killian was dumbfounded. "Are you really the leader?" He was looking around, trying to find the leader instead of him.

But Gar’al didn’t mind it and charged, "Die."

With his full strength, he punched towards Killian’s head, but,

BANG

He bounced back and landed on the floor. Now looking at Gar’al again, he was bleeding in his head profusely, and it couldn’t stop.

"Imagine receiving back your attack with twice the strength. Then he turned to the rebels and asked, "Now what?"

"Just like that?"

"Is it really over?"

"T-That’s the king for you."

The people from the kingdom had already forgotten about Gar’al killing two dukes and were looking at the king, who finished that person in one blow.

They stood up, and the strength they didn’t have returned to their body. Even though they would lose the battles, they would win the war.

And it wasn’t looking good based on the faces of the enemies. The rebels suddenly started regretting that it was too early for them to come out. Luna, in the distance, was frowning and looking towards Cynthia.

Even the evolvers who had defaulted from Killian were now regretting their choice. Victor and Victoria were already shivering in the face of their former leader.

They had forgotten about Alexa and Cynthia. The only people who really had a chance were Cynthia’s group, they didn’t need to put out the monsters. They would appear on their own.

"Haa...so that really was it." Killian shook his hand and gestured for the two people behind him to come forward. And when they came, he said, "Kill them."

At that moment, Cynthia and Alexa released their hidden power,

WHOOOOOM

"Hmm?" Killian immediately looked in the direction he felt it. "You were hiding?" He was pointing at them.

The spread of mana was wild, and the girls started walking forward.

"After waiting for so long, just for this?" Cynthia shook her head as she spoke, as if she had been released from a shackle.

"Victoria, could you help?" She pointed at Gar’al, who was still bleeding from his head.

"Y-Yes." Victoria shook out of her stupor and rushed to Gar’al.

"You know, you look very familiar." Now that Cynthia was closer, she could see the resemblance to someone she had met.

"Hmm...you know my old man?" Killian asked with a frown.

"Y-You, He was your father?" Cynthia and Alexa opened their eyes in shock.

"Answer me, do you know him?" Killian was now frowning more. At this point, the 2 figures were standing beside him.

"Ah, yes. He was the leader of the camp. You know he actually tried to rape me, and you know how it ended." She was changing her expression into a smile, which also wasn’t one.

"What?" Killian was shocked at this revelation. He had left his father and come here to start his own influence. So that was why, when he heard the twins had run away, he knew they would encounter his father. But what was he hearing now?

"He ripped off his lungs and spread them on his shoulders, really a tough way to die." Cynthia was explaining it like it meant nothing.

"Y-YOU DID WHAT?" Killian was really furious as he rushed at Cynthia. The two figures also followed.

"Gravity x4." She then released her gravity on Killian.

"Urghhh." Killian’s movements suddenly stopped, and he started falling to the ground.

And Cynthia created 2 dark flaming tornadoes and controlled them to attack the figures.

"Gahhhhh," the two figures weirdly even screamed the same way, and they were blown away, with their life or deaths unknown.

Cynthia now stopped in front of him.

He was still struggling with the gravity, "I said he killed him." She repeated it. "And you aren’t even any better, you feed people to zombies to increase your strength without facing the required dangers." She nodded at Killian.

"You humiliate women and the old, you discard people thinking you are special, and you still dare to call yourself king. And with all that, you’re still this weak." As she was speaking, she was getting more irritated.

"No easy death for you." She then started her form of torture.

She ripped off his mouth first, "Guurrggghhh". Killian’s scream was blood-curdling.

"Shut up." She then cut off his legs. "You wouldn’t be needing them anyway. Now for the main course," She looked at Victor, who then ran forward.

Only one thought was in his mind: ’I hope she didn’t see me looking at her that day.’ He was suddenly terrified of Cynthia.

It wasn’t wrong to say their whole problems had been solved in an instant. So, he reached Cynthia and bowed his head. He didn’t know why, but he already started feeling pity for Killian. "Yes"

"Take me to the place the zombies are." Immediately she said it, everybody there knew what she was going to do.

"Yes," And Victor was more than happy to oblige, though he still felt pity. It was a strange mixture of both of them that he couldn’t explain. And with that, he took them to where the zombies were.

Rahh...Rrr

The zombies began trashing around when they felt humans. They were inside a cage that was already fixed to the wall. It was a type of cage used to keep large machines or equipment.

"Wow, you really are cruel." Cynthia could see the bones and remains of the people who didn’t turn to zombies, and there were even dead zombies all around that hadn’t been cleared. She didn’t waste any time and opened the cage.

"Gurrhhhh...Gughug" Killian was trashing around. Maybe he was saying stop or please, nobody knew, and nobody cared. Everybody had followed them to this place to see the result.

And finally, he was thrown inside, "Let’s see how you do."

Immediately, the zombies caught him, and he was bitten and bitten multiple times. Like that, the high and mighty Killian had fallen. After a while, the zombies stopped and looked at the people outside.

Now they had no business with the one they just finished; they wanted a new one.

"No, can’t do." Cynthia waved her hand, and sharp wind swung around and swept the zombies into a storm. All the zombies were killed, but she didn’t stop there.

WHOOOOM

Using a large tornado, she destroyed the cage and reduced it to the ground. Without thinking about it, she turned around and looked at the people.

"Haa...we need Nancy here now!" She frowned as she now thought of the consequences of her actions. She now understood how Jon felt when he did it too; the idea of destroying them was satisfying, but they never thought of what happened after.

They now had to take responsibility. She had always liked the idea of leading, but now that she had experienced it, she didn’t like it so much.

"It was inevitable." Alexa approached her and shook her head.

Luna then approached Cynthia and Alexa and bowed a little, saying, "Thank you."

"Hmm...Actually, you should thank Victor and Victoria." She nudged her head towards the twins standing together with a smile.

"So, what do you plan to do?" Luna then asked the question.

"Hmm...I think we are going to merge this camp with ours. We can’t just leave it this way." Cynthia explained and asked back, "What are you going to do?"

"Well, we haven’t thought this far yet," Luna explained that they hadn’t planned to move yet. Not to mention what to do after.

"Then join our camp," Cynthia proposed.

"What?" Luna was quite shocked at the sudden proposal. Honestly, after experiencing one, she didn’t have any hopes on another, but she couldn’t just reject someone who came to help. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Okay, can we do this? Let’s see how your camp is, then we decide." Luna said.

"Hmm, certainly not a bad idea." Cynthia nodded at her words and continued, "Well, we don’t have any grand plan or anything. Just a safe space we can live comfortably."

"Come, let’s start." Cynthia gestured to all of them to follow her to the tallest building.
