Chapter 462: Understanding
While watching the bloody scene, the king looked very satisfied... in a single motion of his hand, he ended the battle. He couldn't feel more satisfied than that.
At the same time, Joanis was studying the whole situation with a careful gaze... the sea emperor was struggling a lot more than expected... even if he was strong and he was resisting the control with his willpower alone, he could only do it for so long.
At the same time, he was studying Rain as well. His flesh was exploding at a microscopic level soon; his muscles would also suffer the same fate, and he wouldn't be able to survive that... It was a pity that he would lose such a useful pawn, but that was what the king wanted.
Besides, the sea emperor would be a much better pawn... he didn't expect that he would lead the charge, but that unexpected development had been more than a little bit pleasant.
"The others are obeying my will, so why are those two still struggling?" The king asked.
"Their physical strength and willpower are at the top of their side, Your Majesty," Joanis explained. "Still, this much proves that the sea emperor will be an invaluable card against the dragons. If you wish to end this quickly, making the sea emperor finish him off should be easy. As long as you try to control him alone."
"No... he deserves to suffer much more for killing my friends," The king said while looking coldly at Rain. "I won't feel satisfied until I hear him screaming in pain and agony and beg for his life. He deserves this much and this will set a good example."
"Your Majesty... that would be unwise; that kid is too resourceful, and he was able to develop techniques that we still don't understand," Joanis showed a serious expression. "He might understand how the spell works, and that could be a problem."
"He won't, I won't let him," The king said and then focused his focus on making Rain suffer.

Everyone back outside the barrier had noticed that something weird had happened, but they didn't know what it was... they only noticed that things got a turn for the worse when Seadrei attacked Rain and sent him in their direction. That area was free from enemies, so they used Impulse toward Rain, only to find him like that... his skin was still imploding, and the parts that were fine were bloody red.
"What happened to you?" Terra asked.
Rain shook his head since he couldn't risk opening his mouth. Even the interior of his nose was slowly being destroyed. In the end, they understood the message and brought him outside the barrier... The cellular explosions ended, and Rain finally had the chance to breathe, but that only made him suffer more.
"... My healing magic, it isn't working!" Terra panicked.
"Calm down, don't panic," Leiah said while her face was completely pale. "Don't move him too much, rest a little... It seems that they are retreating... or turning around to face the magic people."
"... We fell for their trap. I only realized what was going on when the king attacked me," Rain said, trying to get up, but his damaged legs couldn't support him. "He made all his soldiers digest the anti-magic substance, and when their blood became rich in it, he could expand their anti-magic barrier..."
"... The king shouldn't have that kind of ability," Branden said and then gulped since he didn't see Rain trying to use his magic to stand or heal himself.

"I can only imagine that his blood can do that for some reason... control the blood of his subjects," Rain said while groaning. "He also must be the one who controls the explosions, or he has a relic that lets him control the magic bombs."
