Chapter 108 World I:5 Kill them, kill them. ...
Kill them, kill them.
A voice seemed to be repeating in their minds, urging them to take the next step, as if possessing a magical power, immersing them in this pure killing intent.
"Kill them." A familiar voice rang in Ethan's ears, different from its usual coldness, not only low and husky but also containing a hint of laughter: "Just kill them all, good boy, prove to me that you would do anything for me, Ethan."
Yes, Lord Starfall, he will stop at nothing to achieve your goal.
Ethan launched the first attack on Turner, sending an unidentified beam of light straight toward Turner's head. Turner instinctively used the agility he had learned to dodge it by bending over backward. Ethan responded with deadly moves, his fists whistling through the air.
Nadia stood there, her face showing some struggle.
Is she really going to kill them both?
Are they really going to become enemies? Hasn't all of this even happened yet? Maybe she could stop it, and why are they already fighting?
Novigrad frowned slightly, clearly displeased with Nadia's wavering at this moment.
He clearly fabricated so many scenes and kept giving her hints, causing her to break down. He clearly took advantage of her vulnerability and gave her even more hints. Why did he hesitate again at the very last moment before the most important moment?
That's why she doesn't like this kind of person. With so many hints from her, even Xingyun accidentally fell for it. Although it might be because she was unguarded, Nadia was still able to waver under her hints at this point, which was really annoying.
She rolled her eyes in annoyance, but at the same time, another scene appeared in Nadia's eyes.
She was weak, pitiful, helpless, frail, gentle, and kind, Reina.
"Rena" held the corpse that looked exactly like her and cried bitterly. Then, as if she had made up her mind, she took the dagger that Rena had given her from the corpse and resolutely plunged it into her own heart.
He showed no mercy and his movements were fluid and effortless.
Life was rapidly slipping away, and "Rena" grew paler and paler. She finally lay on the ground, looking at the already stiff corpse, gently embraced it, and then closed her eyes forever at the nape of the corpse's neck.
No—Rena—
Nadia rushed forward quickly, joining the fray, elbowing Tenas and kicking Ethan.
"..."
As Xingyun watched the three of them fighting, his expression, now back in his adult form, was somewhat indescribable.
“Hey, Novigrad.” Yang Yan, unlike Xingyun, was more reserved and didn’t say anything. She was so curious that she asked directly, “What did you do to her? Why did she seem to go crazy all of a sudden? She was like an angry lioness! The kind that has lost her cubs.”
"What's it to you what I do?" Novigrad rolled her eyes at her mercilessly. "You should be worried about yours first. Yours is practically forced control. To get to this point, Nadia is probably the last one to die."
"That's not necessarily true." Yang Yan's smile faded slightly, still resentful about his failure to seduce Turnas. In the end, he reluctantly resorted to force: "I actually think Turnas is the last one to die."
Starfall scoffed coldly.
"What are you laughing at? Do you really think your guardian will be the last to die?" The tense atmosphere between the two was broken, and they turned their attention to him: "Him? He was controlled by you with just a few harsh words and silence. I think he should be the first to die."
"How weak do you think the guardians of the most powerful city will could be?" Starfall revealed a sarcastic smile: "Have you forgotten? In that world, I was the most powerful. As the only local chosen by me, do you really think it was just a casual choice, and that I trained so many of them?"
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, filled with the cheap and fragile, plastic-like friendship of the three sisters.
They all looked at the three people who were fighting in a chaotic mess.
Nadia was locked in combat with Ethan.
Nadia's hands, like tweezers, tightly gripped Ethan's shoulders, pressing his body down rapidly as they traversed mountain after mountain, the sounds of stone walls being smashed open and fragments of rock flying everywhere filling their ears.
While Nadia and Ethan were still some distance apart, but considering their current movement speed wasn't too far ahead, a dark purple net appeared, allowing Ethan, whose physical strength was almost as weak as an ordinary person's, to escape the situation of being oppressed by the battle-hardened warrior.
An attack was launched; a crimson orb of light was about to smash into Nadia's head. Ethan could almost see Nadia's face being corroded, revealing only bone. Nadia, who shouldn't have had time to dodge, was instead swiftly knocked away by a figure—Ternas.
Compared to them, Tenas was much more straightforward and brutal, clenching his fists and pounding the person beneath him with force, again and again.
The blood splattered on Ternas's coat, and even on the black turtleneck and sleeveless top underneath, was far less noticeable than on the light-colored coat.
Tenas's fists and face were the worst affected areas, completely covered in blood.
"Ugh!" Nadia forcefully flipped him over, successfully getting up from where she had been pinned to the ground. She retaliated mercilessly against Tenas.
The fist slammed down, knocking Ternas's head to one side and breaking his eloquent mouth. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, a bright red stain.
Because of the lack of control, his eyes were vacant. It seemed that he didn't react for a moment, and remained in a daze in the position where he had been hit to the side. Then he blinked and slowly turned his eyes back.
Immediately following was a merciless leg thrust. Nadia forcefully pushed against his abdomen, making his stomach feel like it was weighed down by a thousand pounds. His mouth was filled with the taste of blood, and there was something inside, which felt like fragments of some organ.
Just as Nadia reached for Tenas's neck to snap it, a powerful force sent them both flying in different directions.
Ethan recovered and quickly rejoined the battle, sending the two who were about to eliminate one of them flying to different places.
The attack sent Ternas flying, crashing through several trees before finally landing and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Nadia wasn't feeling well either. Like Tenas, she had knocked over several trees, but she wasn't so badly injured that she was coughing up blood; she just looked rather pale.
Before she could fly into the air and immediately leave her original position to avoid being attacked by the other two, she felt something wrap around her calf.
Nadia looked down and saw that tentacles of different sizes, and even human hands, were coming out of her shadow and grabbing her outside.
These unknown things were surprisingly sticky. Once they clung to an object, they entangled it tightly. Now they were wrapping around her calves and trying to wrap around her arms, as if trying to pull her directly into their shadow.
As her own shadow was being tossed about by the unknown, dark creature, it revealed a strange color—a blinding red. She even saw her own shadow open its mouth and laugh.
It's like having a ulterior motive, perhaps even anticipating and rejoicing, fantasizing that after one's death, the other person will inherit one's body.
Because it really feels wrong, like in some works where something happens that someone wants to replace a character, such as being replaced by an imposter.
What exactly is this thing?
Black hands and tentacles had already appeared beneath Tenas's feet, wrapping around them and pinning him to the spot, preventing him from taking another step.
Moreover, it feels like it's pulling people down step by step, as if it's trying to drag them into the shadows as well.
Moreover, they couldn't struggle. The more they struggled, the tighter they were entangled. The more they struggled, the deeper they sank. The two of them had already been pulled to the middle of their thighs, and it looked like they were about to reach their waists.
I have no idea what's below. Will I die if I fall in completely? Or will I be pulled into an even more dangerous place? Or will my time be completely frozen there, and I will lose all control of myself?
Even though they tried everything they could, they ended up exhausted and bent over, with no effect whatsoever, and they even sank faster.
No, we can't just let him be killed like this.
She wanted to kill them both to change that terrible future, so that she would die first and be unable to take revenge, while he would never be able to.
She would only consider risking her life and dying together with the other two if there was absolutely no other way. Otherwise, she couldn't accept dying before making her decision.
This can't go on. We'll really die. That person will be the ultimate winner.
Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!
Nadia pulled out a large tree from a distance of several dozen meters and resolutely plunged it into Ethan's vulnerable head.
"Boom—"
It was the sound of heavy trees falling to the ground, the sound of Ethan noticing the approaching trees, narrowly dodging them, but being scratched by the branches due to his carelessness.
Beneath the torn cloak, beads of blood oozed from a thin, pale arm.
Ethan wiped away the drop of blood, but more oozed out. No matter how he wiped or pressed, the bleeding continued.
Oops……
Ethan had no choice but to use a little magic to stop the bleeding. Due to the unique nature of his body, he needed advanced magic. So, naturally, the power on both sides weakened somewhat.
As soon as he felt the grip on his men loosen, Tenas joined in.
Tenas's gaze shifted to a rock not far away, two or three times his own height, a rock that no normal person could budge.
However, Tenas is not a normal person. He is a guardian, and the power he was given is that his body is always full of vitality, a power that is so strong that it is difficult to control.
So Turnas managed to get his hands on the stone, and with a little trick, he successfully obtained the boulder.
Tenas lifted the boulder, his entire body completely enveloped in its shadow, with only his deep blue eyes visible.
He threw it with all his might, and the boulder was sent flying into the air at an extremely fast speed. It looked like it was about to hit Ethan, but Ethan, sensing something was wrong, flipped over and dodged it.
Next, there was the unspoken understanding between Tenas and Nadia, even though they were enemies. Without exchanging a single word, they both instinctively grabbed whatever they could throw at Ethan, hoping to kill him.
Thanks to their combined efforts, Ethan lived up to expectations, sustaining numerous injuries, even though he had tried his best to avoid them; his wounds continued to bleed. His clothes were still tattered, as if he had rolled around in a junkyard.

Author's Note: I'm really stuck on writing action scenes.
Lattes are no longer effective; they only last for two seconds or two minutes. But I often feel that when I'm writing, I'm also writing down what I dream about, even though I delete it later.
This is a picture of Ethan getting beaten up [hit with something] and running away with his head in his hands.jpg
