Chapter 1195 - A Long Way To Go
~Thup. Thup. Thup. Thup!
The heavy footsteps of the trio echoed out across the wooden floors as both sides were now ready for battle.
And when they were close enough, Melinda jumped into the air with the all-black attire and did a full twist-action, sweeping her blade across in an attempt to slice Landon's throat.
Gwen, on the other hand, crouched down and extended her right leg for support, before doing a sweeping knife action towards Landon's little man instead.
They were here for business.
Like slow-motion, Landon looked at their moves and truly felt their fearlessness.
Damn. These ladies were fierce.
They worked as a team to eliminate him, covering his bottom and his upper body.
But if he couldn't even dodge this much, then wouldn't he have been dead over the years by now?
Landon smiled and dashed forward unafraid, startling the ladies.
A typical person's reaction should be to lean away and dodge both attempts, even though that would be impossible to go unscathed.
But in this bastard's case, he only smiled and dashed into the flames of fire even more.
Tell me, if this wasn't someone sick in the head, then who was?
Well, since he wanted to die so much, then they wouldn't mind doing the honours, no?
It was just that things didn't seem to go the way they had predicted.
~Bam!
What?!!!
The ladies hit the wall ahead of them hard before swiftly turning around to face the human frog before them.
F***!
How could he survive that?
Landon smirked while doing a 'Jet Li' hand signal to them.
Heh. He escaped by jumping through the mid-space between both daggers.
And in the process, just after escaping the bladed region, he pushed the ladies forward to hit the wall before rolling onto the floor and getting up again.
A hint of surprise flickered within the eyes of both Melinda and Gwen as they were genuinely impressed by his maneuver of things.
This was only just the beginning of their fight, but sweat had already begun forming on their faces, and their breathing had also become courses as well.
Landon's push to them came as a surprise.
And if they hadn't reacted on time, they would've lost several front teeth after getting slammed into the wall.
Thus, they decided to take him 100% seriously.
Instantly, they had stopped treating him like a Pyron and now acted as if he were someone from Tenola too.
And from there, things only got hotter and hotter.
.
Dammit!
~Boom! Bam! Boom! Slash!
They sent kicks, punches, and knife jabs at Landon at any point.
They even began throwing things in the room at him, from the bedside lamps, the remote control, pillow and anything else they could see.
Of course at the same time, Landon kept throwing them around too, with some breaking the wooden tables.
And the most annoying thing to these ladies was that Landon had just been dodging their attacks while leaning back in a relaxed manner.
Heh.
If they saw the movie 'The Matrix' from earth, then they would understand that Landon was basically blocking their attacks as if he were Neo.
And in a blink of an eye, these ladies had been tossed around like crazy.
But how could they be willing?
.
"Ahhhh!!!"
Melinda curled forward in pain after getting slammed onto her back again.
~Pfff.
She coughed out chunks of blood after feeling an internal injury around he belly.
Dammit, It hurt like hell!
Blood trickled down the corner of her mouth as she lifted her trembling head in rage.
At the same time, her mind was currently working overtime in a mess.
'Gwen is still fighting (getting beaten up by) this bastard. So I need to sneak attack him now! Come on, Melinda... It's time to use the thing given to you by the Goddess!' Melinda thought while firming her mind.
Yes. That was just what she was going to do.
Even though the sisters said she shouldn't use it unless necessary, she felt the perfect time to act was now.
Melinda gritted her teeth and forced herself to place her tired and injured fingers on her temples.
And soon, something miraculous happened!
~Brrrmmmm!
The dagger on the ground close to Gwen and Landon suddenly elevated from the ground like magic!
Success!
Melinda took deep breaths in pain as blood slipped down her nostrils.
Dammit! The headaches were coming again.
But she dared not give in to them... Not until she managed to kill this bastard!
That's right.
From what the witches gathered, in Tenola's ancient times, people with this power could win an army of at most a thousand by commanding the enemy's weapons.
In those times, people in Tenola used this power to fight the giant meat-hungry creatures roaming about.
And now, it seemed like Melinda might be the last wielder of the power.
Additionally, she couldn't use it for long and could only use it for one weapon at a time.
She couldn't also manipulate or confuse others too.
And at present, she bȧrėly managed to hold up against this power.
Thus, the backlash for using it was always dire since she would get head-splitting headaches and also faint for 2 or 3 days straight from just a single use.
Now, she was in a dire situation and had to use this last trick.
She gritted her bloodied teeth deep in thought: 'Come on, Melinda. You only have this last chance. Don't get caught, or it'll be the end for our gang of sisters.'
.
With that, she moved her arms swift
Melinda's body shook deeply as she tried to control the blade
~Brrmmmmm!
The dagger trembled on the ground before levitating ever so slowly behind Landon in a seating manner.
~Graaaahhh.
Just lifting it was giving Melinda a nightmare.
And Gwen, who saw this, instantly understood and tried her best not to smile, planning to act as natural as possible.
She continuously frowned and opened her arms like a cowboy while jumping from left to right like she was about to tackle Landon.
A deep dark emotion flashed within her eyes as she secretly manipulated Landon into moving the way she wanted.
And when she saw that the blade was already levitating opposite Landon's heart, both Gwen and Melinda couldn't help celebrating in their hearts.
'Boy. I've told you. Your end is near. So just go DIE FOR US!'
~Swish!
With murderous intent, the blade moved towards its prey.
And as it moved, time seemed to come frozen in place, as the ladies watched everything excitedly.
The blade was already too close for the bastard to do anything or react.
So wasn't it obvious? The dirty man was going to die!
Hahahhahaha!
~Swish!
The blade moved as the ladies expected, heading towards Landon's heart from his back.
But, when the blade was just a few seconds away, the ladies who were now laughing couldn't help choking instead.
-silence-
How... How could this be?
Gwen's eyes dilated in shock as her trembling hands reached for the ladder plunged into her ċhėst.
Pfff!
She spat out even more blood and struggled to stand straight but found that her body seemed 200 times heavier than it was.
No! No! Impossible! How could this bastard dodge the attack on such short notice?
Impossible! Impossible!
Gwen shook her head in disbelief before then looking at Landon coldly, all the while slumping down onto her knees.
"You bastard! Witchcraft and Sorcery are only for us women! So for you to dodge such an attack means that you also had sorcery too! Then that means that you've dealt with us sisters before! You bastard. You bastard. Did you kill our witch sisters throughout the years and drain their powers? Did you feast on their bodies to keep yourself strong? Only women can feast on the flesh of men, and not the other way around. So what gave you the ego, the impetus and the carriage to do so? How dare you? How dare you?... ~Cough, cough, cough~..."
"_"
Erm... Excuse me, lady... just because you all are sick in the head, don't go ȧssuming that everyone else is sick too, okay?
.
Landon had black lines on his face while watching Gwen die.
In truth, he was also surprised that they had a Telekinesis user with them.
These ladies didn't know it, but he almost died as well.
Thus when the attack came his way, his first thought was to dodge, which he did by doing a split in the nick of time.
And the blade happens to plunge into Gwen's body instead.
Landon watched her die and felt relief.
As for the other ȧssassin, she had long fainted, probably from using her powers.
But even though the battle had just been won, Landon dared but dilly dally any longer.
He had to get to the bottom of things fast!
Very quickly, he located their I.Ds.
'System. Pull out the monitoring for this now!'
At the same time, Landon picked up the motel phone and dialled another private office number.
"Inspector Morgan?"
"Yes... This is he?"
"Good. It's 001. There's been a case."
"How bad?"
"Bad. Scotland Yard Level 54!"
