Invaders 46 Chapter 46

If Ha.s.san wasn't a calm and collective person he would already smash the radar screen in front of him. He kept himself cool and called for his aide nearby.

"Sir General"

"Report to Prince Ray. Mission failed. It's unwise to get close to Borneo now"

"Any other thing sir?"

"Find the family of the deceased. I shall tell them personally"

"Yes sir"

-----

5 years ago, Borneo became a wasteland at the start of the calamity. A new kind of species called monsters keeps appearing due to their thirst of mana. They start to go rampage and destroy everything in their path. Thus, become the source of the calamity. Eventually, they stop after absorbing sufficient enough mana. The calamity finally saw a standstill in a year. Afterwards, the earth underwent a new age called the age of mana.

After destruction comes the birth of new life. Although most human has died, vegetations start to flourish and covered the entire land with greenery plants. Forest, rivers, and mountains are filled with mixtures of animals and monsters living together in an ecosystem. This is all due to the earth supplying mast amount of mana to nature. In fact, the environment now is at peak condition in recent years.

Moreover, Earth mana was so huge that it seems to be infinite. The moment a forest is burned down, a new sapling starts to grow. Gra.s.s has already appeared in the area where Kim battled with the lich. What was once a battlefield has become a huge green meadow. Near the centre of the field, Kim is standing still while looking at the clear blue sky.

Then several black spots appeared in his sight. The number of black spots slowly becoming larger and larger until it covered the entire sky. These black spots were actually swords. Thousands of them raining on Kim. And it didn't stop from just that. It is made up of several layers of thousands of swords coming from behind.

"You are not holding back aren't you?"

"Well Master did say you gonna give me an extra bottle of milk," Momo who was standing quite a distance away from Kim said it while licking her lips.

"Aren't the swords going to hit you as well?"

"Will it?"

The first layer of the swords merged together into one point in the centre. Followed by the layers of the sword behind it. Looking from the side it becomes a pointy shape. When looked from far enough distance, it resembles a giant sword falling from heaven.

"Raining swords formation, coiling snake!"

When Kim heard the name of the attack he felt a bit jealous that all her skills have a brilliant name when compare to his. Although he didn't understand why a coiling snake, he only thought that it had to do with the sword formation.

"I guess I'm much more of a simple person than I thought"

When Kim was about to unleash his mana to go against the falling swords, a loud boom followed by a huge tremor as Rentap rushed towards him with a punch.

Kim deflected the punch sideways and transmit the enchantment into the ground. Forming a ma.s.sive crater by his sides.

"I used to break your arm with a single punch of mine. Look how strong you become since that day bro Kim"

Kim replied with a smile "Thank you brother Rentap"

"No point holding back then. Haaaaa!!!"

Rentap has a small stature, but his body is compact. Full of muscle. He used full enchantment which made his muscle to bulge with red s.h.i.+ne. His eyes become white and flickering with flames of excitement.

"You are the first to face my full power bro Kim! Let's dance under the falling swords! Bahahaha!"

Neglecting the falling swords above him, Rentap bravely challenged Kim in a fistfight. Kim of course with respect accepted the duel knowing that Momo's attack is coming right at him.

"Hey, I'm still here you know! Hmph!"

After deflecting the punch, Kim didn't waste a single moment to send an uppercut towards Rentap's solar plexus. Being the man he is, Rentap let the punch through and took a direct hit. He didn't flinch nor did he faltered. Instead, he grinned widely when receiving the punch.

Kim, on the other hand, felt like he was punching a mountain. A sudden vibration transmitted into his arm and flow into his entire body making him feel painstakingly numb. This is the special trait of Rentap mana pressure, the earth shaker. The moment he released his mana pressure, the entire living being on earth would unknowingly tremble from pure pressure.

Kim gritted his teeth and stomped his feet to the ground, flowing the mana away from him. The land, the air, the entire place shook. Just from enduring the mighty pressure from the earthshaker has caused a glimpse of an opening which was enough for Rentap to deliver a ma.s.sive blow to Kim's chest.

But the punch only went through without any resistance. Kim already above Rentap leaving only an afterimage behind. He did a jumping axe kick straight to Rentap hind neck, forming a ma.s.sive crater to the ground below. Rentap stand strong to resist the kick without letting his knee touching the ground. He turned around quickly which made Kim flinch just by looking at Rentap face.

The way Rentap was standing, his entire form looked like a wild beast. His eyes show that he was ready to go on a rampage. What made Kim flinched was the huge smile on his face that made he knew that Rentap was enjoying this moment. Maybe this was the true nature of a warrior, after all. Letting the thrill of battling other courses through his veins. His blood is thirst in excitement, wanting for more. Somehow, Kim also felt the same thing.

Rentap grab Kim's leg and threw him in the air at ma.s.sive speed. It didn't inflict Kim with any damage but the momentum of him flying away has reduced Kim control of his own body.

"Tch. I forgot it was two against one!"

The falling swords have already started to approach Kim at a terrifying speed. The first layer of thousands of swords rus.h.i.+ng through. Kim manipulated the ground beneath him and made an earthly wall enhanced with his mana to block the myriad of swords.

The wall grew larger and thicker as more and more swords stabbing the hardened block of ground. At the same time, Kim was still being blown away from getting thrown by Rentap.

Before he could gain his control back, the second layer of thousands of swords divert itself from the wall and rus.h.i.+ng towards Kim from the side. The trajectory of the swords bent to strike Kim.

Vines appeared from the ground to form a net which caught Kim, stopping him in mid-air. He landed on the ground and instantly trees started to grow beside him. Those trees grew and elongated toward the oncoming swords to receive it.

The swords stuck to the trees, but the remaining more circled around it. The way Kim sees it, it feels like the swords are moving like a snake. He made a gesture with his hands and branches upon branches grew like small arms catching the flying swords.

Tut tut tut tut tut tut tut tut tut tut tut tut

The sounds of swords stabbing into the trees went on continuously without a single moment of break.

Out of nowhere... Boom! An explosion.

Kim looked toward the source of the explosion and saw the huge hole in his harden earthy wall. A black silhouette jumped out from the hole and rushed towards him like a preying tiger.

"I'm still here bro Kim! Bahahahaha!"

Hearing the familiar laugh, Kim could only smile back. Forming his martial art stance, he put up his arm forward, ready to take on Rentap.

"Then come!"

Rentap went further with his body enhancement which surprised Kim on how strong the legendary warrior truly is. Before, he only fought his spirit. Now that he is alive and kicking, he has full control of his power.

Of course, the moment Rentap released more of his mana, Kim felt the trembling from Rentap's mana pressure. But this time it wasn't fear!

During the beginning of the calamity, he only fought because he was desperate to survive. Now that he became powerful and have a strong sparring companion, he could only appreciate the thrill of battle. Bits by bits, his personality changed by the years.

Kim took a step and in a split second, they are now in front of one another. They both send a punch which directly hit one another. Then another punch and another then another. Blood started to drip at the corner of their grinning mouth.

The remaining swords merciless rus.h.i.+ng towards Kim like a swarming bee. Even though the swords are directed toward him, Rentap was within the range of attack. Momo conjured a blunt blade that won't be able to slice but it will still hurt like getting thrown with a rock when it hit. Still, Kim won't let himself get hit easily.

While exchanging punches Kim jumped around with acrobatic skills to avoid the oncoming swords. Rentap, on the other hand, didn't care and let the sword hit his body that was bulging with muscle. Even the swords weren't able to interfere with their face-off.

After the endless attack, deflecting and avoiding Rentap sensed something was wrong. He felt like he was getting weaker and weaker while Kim hasn't shown any hint of getting fatigued at all even though he was fighting with two people at the same time.

When he looked closely, it seems that Kim wasn't just avoiding the swords but he was also slightly touching them and the swords will completely vanish in thin air. Feeling suspicious, he expanded his mana sense and found out that his mana was slowly dissipating...no it way flowing away...towards Kim!

"He's...absorbing my mana?"

By the time he was able to grasp the whole situation Kim already finished dispersing all Momo's swords. Kim noticed that Rentap has stopped moving and he casually walk toward him.

"Should we call it a day then?"

Rentap scratched his head and laugh wryly.

"I thought I was the one who didn't use my full power, but it seems like I was overestimating myself"

Kim replied with a smile.

"Let's go, Momo is waiting"

They both walk back as the sun sets behind them. The sky was decorated with orange light with a hint of a purple colour. Momo was sitting on the gra.s.s, sipping a bottle of milk while Enggang was perching on her shoulder. They both calmly enjoying the setting sun. Momo greeted Kim and Rentap and Kim joined her.

Rentap was welcome by the other warriors. It seems that they have been doing some constructions at the place. There were houses made of wood and also a giant hall that seems to be a meeting place.

With mana, everything was done at a quick pace. Some of the warriors were manipulators with a high apt.i.tude towards nature. They could manipulate the land, trees, wood easily. Kim even lent some help by teaching them how to utilize their power.

With a river flowing and forest nearby, soon this area will become a beautiful village surrounded by nature. Now that most of the monsters have been slaughtered by Kim, there was little disturbance. Besides, most of these warriors could kill a superior rank monster single-handedly. It would be wise for a mere monster to stay away.

They even managed to find some animals that didn't evolve into monsters and were still alive. They also harvested some edible fruits and plants within the surrounding area. It seems that animals and plants have become more nutritious and have high vitality due to mana. They already have a plan set for farming and poultry.

Kim and Momo have been living their live roasting monsters and eating their meat. When both of them were served with food cooked by the warriors, they couldn't hold back their tears.

As the day was getting dark, Kim set up the campfire by igniting the firewood with mana. The flame was huge enough to cover the entire area. Today the warriors prepared a feast for everyone and everyone ate to their heart content.

"So, you going to stay?"

"Yes. Lord Enggang told me to"

"You could follow both of us if you want"

"True. But this was my decision and it wasn't forced. Lord Enggang did tell me I could go outside anytime if I want. But who will take care of this land? I died fighting for this land, we all did. I'm grateful to be living to see how well it is now. Somehow the land becomes purer than it was before... even though there were many destruction and death happened..."

Kim gazed at the starry sky as he was listening to Rentap. Momo was already sleeping after eating too much.

Since the calamity, never did he let go of his regret and anger...watching his friends died. Watching the lifeless body of his family. Burying them to the ground himself. He is mad. Mad to the point that he wanted to kill himself to get rid of his madness.

But in the end, he learned to accept how it is and think of it as the birth of a new life. A new world. A new era. He has nothing of what he has before. The people that surround him now is his new family and friends. Even though it changed, this land was still his home.

Even though awakening of mana is a natural occurrence, a forced awakening would be deemed to bring destruction to people of the world. Those who are responsible have dyed their hands in red. Nothing would change the fact that they the reason why the people of the earth have lost most of its population. For Kim, his revenge would compensate the life of the people of the earth.

Kim entered his mental domain after fully rested from fighting the lich. That time, the voice told him he found the way to break the seal that isolating Borneo from the outside world. Before this, Kim and Momo have tried several times to leave but there is some kind of an illusionary barrier that made them return to where they came from.

The voice told Kim he needed to kill three guardians to break the seals. Fortunately, Kim already killed two of them accidentally. Now he only left with one. The Lord of Chimaera.
