Both Xyon's eyes glared sharply as he looked before him were Treya and Veina, as well as some of the bodyguards and servants who had been poisoned to death first, with blood coming out of their mouths. The young general who was being threatened by a small black dagger on his neck, suddenly lowered his left hand from his nose while trying to remain calm.
"The poison blew their hearts from the inside. It's a perfect poison, isn't it? Hey, aren't you all immortal beings? Why breathe here?" darkerio asked who was standing behind Xyon while pointing the sharp edge of his black dagger just below the young man's neck.
Xyon knew that the air reserves inside his lungs could not be used for long, hence, all he could do was to remain silent.
"Gosh, it's not so exciting. You can just shut up. What if this is it?" darkerio asked in an annoyed tone, then suddenly, he let go of Xyon and ran towards Veina who was still slumped on the floor, then quickly, quickly, he placed the black dagger in the heart of the Empress.
"Ahhhh," urgently pushed Veina down in weakness, and now blood began to flow from inside her stab wound.
"No! Your Majesty!!!!!" xyon exclaimed with both eyes glaring wide and sharp, but his body started to feel limp as he could slightly inhale the poisonous air there.
He immediately glared sharply upon seeing the Empress whose body began to turn into fine dust and instantly disappeared. Treya could, of course, see what Darkerio had done just now, even though he was still lying on the floor. His body was stiff, but both eyes were still open.
Darkerio turned to Xyon who was growling, then smiled sinisterly and said, "What, General Xyon? Are you going to give up now and kneel before me? I'll take control of this palace in a moment, so you can't possibly fight me. Just admit that you've lost. There's no way you can beat me, because I can easily kill the people you love, one after the other. Ah, it's sad that Palladina doesn't have cosmic powers."
"You! Goddamnit!!" xyon exclaimed as he pointed towards Darkerio with his right hand, while his face appeared flushed red with restraining emotions.
Suddenly a large screen appeared before him. Arnea and Klara were in the room, but apparently, they had fainted and their bodies were lying on the floor.
"Your time is only ten minutes away, General Xyon!!" darkerio exclaimed in a high tone.
Xyon this time was really full of anger, although his feelings were now mixed between annoyed, sad, and disappointed, then he muttered in his mind, “Damn! My opponent this time is not a cosmic weapon, but a cosmic force! Should I give up?! He will kill more people, including His Highness the Crown Prince and his wife!”
He looked puzzled, even his eyes repeatedly turned to the left and to the right. Cold sweat began to wet his face until Darkerio laughed at his attitude.
"Give up, General Xyon. This planet will soon be mine with all the light energy in it, and I destroy your cosmic ability, Healing Renovatio, which is already creating an imbalance within the universe!!" darkerio exclaimed with a sinister smile on his face.
But he did not realize that Treya was lying near his feet. Apparently the King of Palladina was trying to grab Darkerio's left leg, slowly. Xyon of course saw the effort of his king, and with a sharp look in his eyes, he then looked straight at Darkerio.
The young general then raised his right hand to the side and a white cosmic sword suddenly appeared within his grasp. He then smiled sinisterly and looked at his opponent with a serious face.
“If you are so strong, why should you ask me to come with you? Aren't you able to control dark matter, as you said to me?” xyon asked as he scrunched his forehead.
Darkerio then smiled, then replied, “We are not Crossbreed, Nak.”
"Yes, of course, this is just a cosmic weapon. Maybe the light energy I have is not so great, and not comparable to your dark matter, but I can confirm one thing, Darkerio," said the young general, also with a sinister smile on his face.
"What's that?!" darkerio asked as he scrunched his forehead.
"Of course, I won't give up on you!!" shout Xyon.
Treya this time managed to grab and hold Darkerio's legs tightly so that he could not move, and of course, Darkerio immediately turned to the King of Palladina with a sharp gaze, then it dawned on Xyon that was setting him up.
“Fucking old man!” darkerio shouted with a face filled with anger, and he began to shake his legs so that Treya released the grip.
“Death to you, Darkerio!!” xyon exclaimed as he began to run quickly towards her, however, Darkerio suddenly bowed and stuck out the black dagger he was holding right in Treya's heart until the old man cried out in pain, then pull it back after successfully stabbing the King's heart.
Unfortunately from the same time, it turns out Xyon also managed to stab Darkerio's right front abdomen with his cosmic sword until the stab wound began to bleed. The large-bodied man immediately stood up straight and turned towards him with a sharp glare, then with all his might, he strangled and raised Xyon's neck upwards.
“Argh!!” the young man was so angry that he was forced to release his grip from the cosmic sword that was still stuck in his opponent's front abdomen.
“Powerful little guy, huh? Fucking young man. You ruined my plan and dared to play with the universe. Just look, someday you will soon pay for the entire aftermath,” whispered Darkerio with a cynical smile.
Xyon, now trying to release the strangulation, sees Darkerio pulling out his cosmic sword and throwing it down, then kicks it until the cosmic weapon disappears, turned into fine dust in the air.
“Bigger!! Argh!! You will soon ... pay for all the things you have done to me! Just look! You are an unlucky bearer, and will soon get his reply after this, General Xyon!” darkerio shouted, then he threw Xyon's body aside with all his might, until the young man was dragged a few meters away from him.
"You really are, an uninvited intruder! A coward! Goddamnit!" xyon exclaimed as he looked at Darkerio with eyes filled with anger, and a face that was completely red, yet still trying to endure the pain of the bruises he was suffering from, although his mouth was now bleeding a lot from the toss, his body hit the floor very hard.
