King Ranter: Chapter 2-6 - The End of a Glorious Battle


Chrono woke up in a daze. He shook his head and looked down at the staff that had penetrated his torso only moments ago. He grasped it and tugged it, but it was stuck behind him. The staff had stuck into the wall and pinned Chrono. He grasped it with both hands, planted his feet on the floor, and pushed himself up, pulling the staff out of the wall. He took a minute to breath, and then he pulled the staff straight out of himself. There was not a drop of blood on the staff, and he had not bled a drop. In fact, his shirt was still in fine condition. He forgot about his super armor that Zinc designed.

He remembered where he was. He looked ahead and saw the struggling King crawling out of the crater he created in his collision. He looked pretty intact as well. 'He must have similar armor,' thought Chrono. "Hey, Fuckface!" he roared, "I'm still standing! What are you gonna do without your staff?"

The King looked up at Chrono with a look of absolute terror. Chrono glared at him, and started walking towards him. He snapped the staff in half in his two hands and tossed the pieces off to the side, and cracked his knuckles. The King stammered to his feet and grabbed for his staff that he didn't have. Chrono closed in on the King and grabbed him by the neck through his beard and lifted him up above the ground. He was shorter than he seemed. Chrono started crushing his neck. "Any last words, you son of a bitch?" asked Chrono sarcastically. The King choked.

Chrono swung the King over his head and smashed him into the ground behind him, cracking the coloured stone panels in the ground. Chrono leaped straight up, cranked his arm back, and came down with his fist straight into the King's gut, causing him to grunt loudly in pain. Chrono grabbed him by the shoulder and threw him at the distant wall. While the King was flying through the room, Chrono shot in his direction and axe-kicked the King in the back, changing his momentum to straight down with a face-plant, leaving yet another crater in the ground. Chrono landed valiantly next to the King, and faced him. Looking forward, he saw the throne straight across from him. Then he looked back down at the King and rolled him over with his foot. "Wake up, you coward," he said, "You don't have a weapon. It looks like I'm going to have to murder you with my bare hands." He waited to see what the King would do, but he lied there motionless, presumably pretending to be dead. "Except I can't," continued Chrono, "Because your armor is protecting you as mine is protecting me, so I'll have to do things a little differently than I had planned." He picked the King up by his cloak and put him on his feet. The King looked back at Chrono, still silent, and still terrified. "King of Gyronia," said Chrono, "This is the end of you. You have chosen to say nothing when I offered, and you will never say another word again. I would like to compliment you on your powerful techniques, but your choice of keeping peace on the battlefield has not aided you well, and that was your downfall. I will no longer allow Gyronia to be ruled by one man, and to do that, I must kill you here and now. You have done your job well."

With that, Chrono landed a powerful uppercut to the jaw of the King, lifting up high into the air. Chrono jumped up and met him in the air, brought his hand back in a claw and penetrated the King's chest. Chrono forced a current to flow through his arm, and the King began to get electrocuted while Chrono held him up in midair. After a few moments, Chrono ripped his hand out of the King's chest, leaving no blood behind because of his armor, and he started punching him in the chest repeatedly, back and forth with his two fists and incredible velocities while maintaining the King's position. The room around them started to grow dark again, and Chrono put his arms into an X-block, quickly charged up a large amount of energy inside the King's body, and released his arms, causing the energy to emit in every direction. The King's body exploded, his perfect armor destroyed along with it, and the King's remains splattered all over the walls of the throne room. Chrono floated in place for a moment before dropping down to his feet. He glared around the room. The splattered flesh and blood of the King, as well as his destroyed cloak started glowing brightly. They started spiraling around the room like a hurricane, but Chrono didn't flinch. He waited for them to slow, and they collected in the center of the room right in front of him. With one last flash of light, the cloak appeared before him, floating in the air. There was no one in it.

Chrono grabbed the cloak by the collar and it went limp, no longer floating. He sent it to hammer space and took a step into the center of the room and looked around. He telepathically carried the pieces of broken stone and repaired the throne room. No one could have known a battle took place here. Chrono crossed his arms and sighed. He chuckled a bit.

"King Chrono Blackfire. I like the sound of that."
