Chapter 96 - (A3) Get Back Up

Olaf: Shit! Shit! Shit! SHIT! SHIT!!!

Lin: Like is that the only word you know??

Olaf was screaming in pain looking at the huge Kukri blade stuck in his left calf. Blood was flowing out of the wound, and his leg was going numb. There was little to no chance of stopping the bleeding right then and there. All he could do was cuss at his injured leg, even though it was tiring. Screaming also took a lot of energy and it took away his breath slowly.

Olaf: You will pay for this! ALL of you!!

Lin just snickered. Despite having an injury on his temple and bleeding he didn't care. All he wanted was to get back on all three of his opponents. He didn't know for how long Max could hold out on Sarzar. Lin knew that he was no match too for the Ameliorate knowing how his last encounter went with him. But he didn't want Max to fight him alone, especially because he was cockier when he fights.

Olaf wanted to pull the blade out, but couldn't find the strength to pull it out. He had to fight with the blade in his leg. He saw ahead at the one who annoyed him the most- David Mercurius Steefan. David was crouching next to the kid who was lying on the ground. David checked if Chuck was still breathing by placing his fingers next to his nose. Then he sighed in relief.

David: He is out cold...but he is alive. Needs medical treatment!

David shouted that back to Lin who stood behind Olaf. Olaf looked at David's eyes. It definitely didn't resemble anything of the David before. When Olaf started fighting David, David looked like a happy-go-lucky guy that didn't want anything with fights. But now he seemed different. Those eyes, were eyes of a killer.

Bjorn saw Lin standing up and wanted to fight him to save his fellow Knight. He pulled out his axe from behind his back with his left hand, while the unconscious Melissa rested on his massive right shoulder. Lin immediately noticed the malicious intent coming from behind him. He realised that one of his Kukri blade is missing but he feared not. The other one was right here.

Lin stretched his hand backward quickly and held the handle of his blade that was stuck in Olaf's leg. He pulled it out immediately causing Olaf immense amounts of pain as blood splashed out of the wound. Lin didnt care and didn't want to show any kind of mercy to a guy that was stomping a kid. Olaf fell to his knees screaming in pain as Lin finally met Bjorn's axe with his sword.

Lin stopped Bjorns axe easily. Lin knew that Rose was slightly stronger than him, but Bjorn was just a massive guy with a powerful axe. He looked easy to fight against. Lin was still injured but he could move well enough to match Bjorn. He saw Melissa on his shoulder.

Lin: Leave her alone, man mountain!!

Bjorn: No can do, warrior!! She has been sentenced to death by our Royal Court and her father, the King himself!

Lin was shook for a second. He remembered back to the time he first met her when she was on the run. She was desperate and was being hunted by Knights. As far as he knew, it looked like she was in a invasion type situation. And even though it was Lin's choice of never asking who she was running from, he never thought her own father would send a kill order. But it wasn't surprising to him since he knew Melissa's reputation and true character.

Bjorn stopped his blade midway and pushed Lin as far as he can. Lin flipped in the air and landed on his feet and started running towards him again with even more speed. He cut Bjorn's feet and torso, but the armor stopped it, so there wasn't any visible damage, but Bjorn did feel it. And Lin could see the disturbed look on Bjorn's face.

Olaf got back on his feet, despite it shaking and his eyes were red with rage. Time and time again he got up ready to fight and win against his puny unarmed opponent, but he was always foiled. Not this time, he decided. But as soon as feel faced forward to kill David, all his eyes could see was a fist reaching his face. There was no time to dodge and he ate the punch which broke his nose again. The hell of pain reached his mouth as blood almost reached his lips. He wasn't falling down and saw ahead again, but David gave me a fast hand chop on his neck which threw away his timing, and then he jumped in the air to kick his face from the right. David then twisted himself and kicked him again from the left.

As Olaf was almost falling down, David caught him again, placing his palm on both sides of his face. Olaf looked up at his extremely enraged opponent. David looked at his enemy with wide open, cold eyes. There was no quip, no smile. David raised his knee and knee-butted his face in. Olaf quickly fell down. The fight looked incredibly one-sided despite the losing one being an actual Knight. Olaf started thinking of ways he can win. His rage was hit to the extreme that now all he could think of was winning.

Lin on the other hand tried striking at Bjorn who had now lost his axe, thanks to Lin's amazing maneuver. Bjorn was disarmed and now he was on the verge of being killed. Lin wasn't in the mood of showing mercy to anyone. He tried slashing but his blade stopped midway. And it wasn't intentional.

Lin was confused. He tried pulling his blade with as much strength as he could, but his blade didn't move. It looked as if it was stopped in time, midair. And no matter how much he struggled the blade wouldn't budge.

Lin: What..?!

Bjorn saw his chance and immediately grabbed his axe and tried to attack Lin, but Lind dodged it by kicking it away and flipping back. He wasn't letting go of his sword even then. Lin took a second, but realised who was behind the attack. He turned to look outside to see Rose smiling, looking at him. He had his palm stretched outwards toward him. He was using some kind of Blessing to stop his blade. Lin also noticed that he was controlling two other blades that were hovering in the air and fighting against Albert, leaving Rose free to do whatever he wants.

One of the blades flying in the air looked like it belonged to a Knight. Lin kind of guessed that it probably belonged to the side-burns knight that had lost his sword. The other blade was Lin's missing second blade. Lin grinned ear to ear.

Rose commanded Lin's blade In his arm, to come to the pink haired Knight. But Lin didn't let go. He flew with the blade in his hand towards Rose, who unsheathed his own sword and they both clashed. Rose smiled at him.

Rose: Didn't think you would be alive!!

Lin: Sorry to disappoint you!!!
