Chapter 67
FLYING OF ARROW
PYRO’S POV
I peeked on Fira and Raiden. Fira seemed to enjoy talking with him. The plan was working so fine. I requested Raiden to look after her because I would kick the bastard out of our way. Whoever wanted to make Fira and I separate, I would be their unforgettable nightmare.
I prepared myself while walking in the hallway. I would be meeting Janus at the Riverside and we would have a challenge.
Good luck to him. I might not kill him, but he will suffer to death.
A smirk formed on my lips as I glimpsed Janus standing at the cliff, watching the falls. He was waiting for me.
I have no idea. Why am I doing this? I mean Fira is already my mate, but I feel like threatening this man to stay away from her.
She is mine. No one will touch her the same as I do.
“Greetings.” I said as I wanted to make him acknowledge my presence.
“Should I need to bow, King Fire?” Janus’ eyebrows went up. “Should I?” The sarcasm was on his face.
He is mad at me. So do I.
“No. I hate them bowing to me, but I don’t have a choice.” I stand straight in front of him, showing my broad chest and shoulders. I was trying to calm myself at least a bit due to my power. Lately, when I was with Fira I could relax myself and ended up not burning. I really liked her hands on me, caressing, hugging, and wrapping. I just did not want another man to touch her in any way.
“The best man wins.” Janus clenched his fist.
“The best man wins,” I repeated as I positioned myself in thirty degrees, folded my knee and showed him my closed fist, preparing the fight. He did the same thing.
“If I win, you’ll give Fira to me.” Janus said his condition. This was the only reason why we were going to have a man to man battle.
“If I win, you’ll go away and not gonna disturb us.” I started to jump and gave him a flying punch. I was stunned by his dodge, he was fast like Alpha King of Lightning.
The curiosity filled my chest. He was just a miner. I heard Raiden talking to Hali that the miner was not a trained fighter. They were just trained to use the shovel, find the golds and diamonds, but not in battle.
Is there a secret organisation that teaches the low ranks to fight? If there are any, who is their leader?
I dodged in the right as Janus kicked me, and his feet hit on the ground. I moved down, my knee folded as I punched his belly, causing him to step backward. Then I wrapped my arms on his waist and overthrew him. He stood up immediately as I gestured stomping on him. He dodged all of my hits. I got annoyed because I never encountered anyone who had the same capability as me, the good dodger.
Now I knew how it felt to be dodge by someone.
“Curious, your majesty?” Janus’ eyes glued on me as he stood manly.
“How did you learn the defenses?” My forehead was knitted. A minute passed, but we had no bruises, no hit from each other because we were both diving left and right to avoid the strikes of one another.
“We are just rivals about Fira. I know all your decisions are for her. So do I…” Janus’ face showed me how serious he was at this moment. “I want to protect myself from the abusive and cruel royals-protect Fira, too. I’m part of secret organizations of the low born.”
My mouth was closed, I had no words to say. I was not against to that or vanquished their association, it made me happy instead.
“If you’re low born, you can experience the cruelty of the world.” Janus’ eyes had a spark of sadness like how I saw from Fira’s eyes when she was talking about the status of their life.
Is there an equality treatment between them?
My eyes widened as he moved faster, he leaped and then his fist landed on my cheek. He got one point from that. I took my revenge by kicking his belly. He immediately took back my kick by punching my chest. We both exchanged punches and kicks.
Admittedly, I found myself fighting on him because it had a thrill. I could compare his strength on Colden when he was in the mood to train and the speed was like Raiden. They trained him professionally or maybe he was rehearsing his entire life.
We were in the middle of fighting when Janus moved down with his face facing the ground. “Get down, King Fire!”
I laid down on the ground with my ventral facing the ground. The arrow flew towards us. There were opponents in our surroundings, hiding behind the trees. I had no idea who their target was, but definitely it was me because all of their hits went towards me.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Suddenly, Janus stood up and covered me. I had no idea why he was protecting me. “Move away! I can handle this-” I stopped talking as I saw that he had three arrows on his back, burying his skin.
I gritted my teeth. I looked around as I was finding who the heck was flying an arrow! I saw nothing, they were well hidden in their places.
“Move away.” I commanded to Janus again.
“No, you’ll-” He coughed with blood which made me alarm. “You’ll die if they hit you with an arrow. It’s poisonous.”
I stared at his face for so long. It was obvious that he had difficulties in breathing. The stab sensation filled my chest as I observed his expression, it was hurting him.
I don’t want someone to die because of me again even if he is my rival.
“Why are you saving me?” I held his shoulder as he fell.
“Because I know… you can protect Fira more than I.” He collapsed on my shoulder.
“Janus!” I saw the arrow buried again on his back. I brought him down. I looked around and just using my eyes, I burned the trees where they were hiding.
I love nature so much, but I would sacrifice them now for the sake of killing those bastards.
The hitting of an arrow in the air suddenly disappeared, no signs that I was killed somebody. They all escaped. I almost cursed at the knowledge that they ran away from me.
I gazed down at Janus who was now lying. I tapped his cheek. “Wake up!” I shook his shoulder. “Open your eyes, Bastard!”
He had no response.
