Chapter 97: 97: Caleb's Wickedness
Caleb felt a sweet metallic taste liquid in his mouth. He rubbed the spot where he was kicked in agony; it was tingling. Fortunately, while Fushigiro can do a soft fist, he couldn't do a soft kick. Or else Caleb knew that he would have got fucked up with the kick just now.
"It's not too late yet, just you know. As long as you become my loyal follower. You will taste riches, fuck countless beauties, and live like a king in the future. It's a pity to just kill such a talented kid like you know?" Fushigiro's indifferent voice sounded like a tempting devil.
"Sorry, but I dreamt of living like a monk." Caleb snickered and rebutted which made Fushigiro's face contort in anger.
Who was Caleb? He was someone who could reincarnate infinitely! Riches? He can get them in any world. Beauties? As long as he gets reincarnated as a dashing, handsome person, that won't become a problem either. King? Who wants to become a king when you can become a god? Of course, he doesn't have a god-complex personality. In his opinion, gods are just higher and more powerful beings.
"Very good. It seems there's no room for discussion. Since you're courting death, I'll gladly send you!"
'Damn! He said it! He said it!' Caleb almost wants to puke in the high heavens hearing the taboo, forbidden word.
In advance, Caleb kicked the ground three times and appeared two meters on his left. Just as he did so, Fushigiro emerged from his previous spot.
'Eat this you fuckin mongrel.' With dexterous hands, he flicked four rubbles, each containing 5% of his total taboo energy.
"Do you think those flimsy rubbles would get me? Then you're wrong! It's futile!." Fushigiro used Tesai, causing the rubbles to bounce at him upon contact.
"It's over... How is Johan supposed to win against the captain?" Dunn said weakly.
Jin struggled to stand up. However, he just fell to the ground harder, like a paralyzed dog. He looked at the ongoing battle and responded in a feeble tone.
"It would take a miracle to do so..."
"Let me help you guys. Thanks for not abandoning us." Andre appeared beside Jin and helped him sit.
Luna and Clifford did the same to Dunn. They patted his clothes and wiped his face with a wet white cloth.
"Well, you kids are not ungrateful," Dunn whispered feebly.
"Do you think Johan has a chance?" Desperate, Clifford leaned slightly at Dunn and asked in a low voice. He knew that it was impossible. After all, Fushigiro was the strongest.
"I don't know, kid. We just have to wait for the outcome. If he loses, then we'll die."
...
Just like that, the battle continued with Johan constantly using Deka Step to dodge lethal attacks and endure attacks that his body could handle. After all, he has limited energy. As a result, he now has a few broken bones in his body and punctured wounds from Fushigiro's constant attempt to kill him with the finger gun.
However, one could see as the battle got longer, the smile on Caleb's became wider and wider. Fushigiro, on the other hand, is the one with the upper hand, treating Caleb like a mouse as if he were the cat. But over time, he gradually became slower and weaker, just like Jin and Dunn.
'Shit! I need to finish this battle quickly.' Feeling it hard to breathe and control his body, Fushigiro forced his body to move. He felt his movements were heavier, and he began to feel dizzy.
In a desperate attempt, Fushigiro deka stepped beside Caleb and threw a soft fist at him. Caleb just took a side step. The speed of the punch was now something he could easily dodge.
"Captain is getting weaker, just like us. It seems he wasn't immune to it either. There's a chance of winning!" Jin smirked.
Hearing this, the three kids clenched their fists with hope. As long as Johan wins, they will live for another day!
"I won." Caleb clenched his fist and threw three powerful punches, aiming for Fushigiro's head, intending to shatter his skull.
However, Fushigiro just swayed like a floating leaf, successfully evading the punches with ease. Yet, he fell to the ground weakly after, unable to move.
"You're just lucky you're not affected by this. I don't know if it's a virus or some sickness, but it's the reason I lost. Not because you outsmarted me or overpowered me." Even though he lost, Fushigiro still had a crazy smile on his face.
"Cope harder... You sure about that?" Caleb smiled from ear to ear.
Hearing this, Fushigiro's face changed, and he looked at Johan in disbelief. "What do you mean? Don't tell me..."
Even Jin and Dunn were looking at Johan in shock. Doesn't that mean they weren't suffering from fatigue or sickness? It was Johan's doing all along? But how? And When?
"I know... I know... You guys must be wondering how I did it, right?" Caleb kicked Fushigiro's balls, making the latter scream like a tortured pig.
"Bastard!! I'll fucking kill you!!"
Caleb nodded in satisfaction and kicked Fushigiro's pair of nuts again viciously. The latter let out a high-pitched cry. "That's for Fatty."
Unconsciously, Dunn, Jin, Andre, and Clifford clutched their balls. It was as if Johan's action activated their defense mechanisms. Luna and Rina, on the other hand, watched speechlessly, as if they only discovered now how brutal Johan could be.
"Well, let's end it here." Caleb turned his head at Fushigiro, who was looking at him, pleading to just kill him. Then he scanned his gaze at everyone. "Do you guys remember the poison of the snake? The Devil's Cry? Do you also remember when I proposed to fill our waters? What do you think I did?? I poisoned all of you except for me and the four. The poison's efficacy is too slow, though. I didn't expect it to take one day just to take effect. Rina told me it would only take 16 or 17 minutes, what a scam..."
Jin, Fushigiro, and the others stared at Caleb and they didn't know what to say for a while.
"You even poisoned us? So you don't trust us?" Jin sighed bitterly.
Dunn sighed. "I didn't know you're treacherous and more ruthless than Jin here. You didn't hesitate to use the poison on us. But why? Why didn't you trust us?"
