The Labyrinth Kingdom

Chaptre 81. War Veterans

A few minutes earlier.

Dustin walked towards the Sanatorium before him.

He scanned the area around the building and found several goblins relaxing in the park.

Some Pixies were also seen flying around, taking care of the flowers in the park.

"The positive energy in this place is very dense, it feels very disgusting." murmured Dustin unhappily.

He ignored the Goblins and Pixies who were busy working and continued walking towards the entrance of the building.

As Dustin opened the door, he was greeted with an unusual sight.

Pendant lights made of crystal decorate the ceiling of the building, the floor is made of white marble that makes the interior of the room more beautiful.

But that was not what caught Dustin's attention, displaying the symbols engraved on the walls of the building.

"Medivel Rune! It's fair that the positive energy in this place is very dense" Dustin said.

Medivel Rune serves to absorb all kinds of positive energy that is around it to speed up the healing process of people who are injured.

These runes were usually used when building healing facilities at the site of the ongoing war.

As Dustin was observing the interior of the building, the voice of a speaking person was heard.

"I did not expect that an unexpected guest would come to visit my place, long time no meeting Judgement Knight. "welcome Galenus kindly.

Dustin turned towards the source of the voice. But instead of replying to Galenus, he made a sudden attack.

[Twin Slash]

The two blades of light moved swiftly towards Galenus and cut his body into three pieces.

But... Although his body had been cut off, Galenus' head lying on the floor continued to speak.

"Sigh~ Still rough as always." said Galenus with a sigh.

After he said those short words, Galenus' severed body slowly shattered into dust grains and disappeared.

However, a moment later, a new Galenus suddenly appeared beside Dustin while leaning his elbow on the knight's shoulder.

"Can't you be more friendly to a fellow veteran of 'Red Star War', you really make this old man sad" Galenus said in a sad tone.

" !!! "

Dustin was shocked to discover that Galenus had suddenly appeared beside him.

He activated one of his skills to keep his distance from the man.

[Gale Movement]

Dustin's body turned to the wind and moved away from Galenus.

"Why are you acting that way? Don't tell me you weren't aware of my previous presence, are your hunting instincts getting dull now? " ask Galenus casually.

"Shut your mouth, you son of a bitch! If only you had done your job well, it was possible, Rila was still alive today. I'll never forgive you, damn it! " cried Dustin furiously.

"Rila? ..., Ahhh, what do you mean that girl of the Avalon race? Avatar of your Artifact. Wait a minute, didn't I explain to you the reason for his death in the past" Galenus said, recalling his old memories.

"Shut up! It's all your fault, asshole! " snaps Dustin.

Not wanting to hear Galen's words again, Dustin activated his artifact to use his strongest attack.

[Collar: Fashion Annihilation]

One by one the chains hanging on his waist started to disappear.

Galen knew what Dustin wanted to do. He breathed and then spoke.

"Huf... Looks like my words won't enter your ears in the least. Besides, troublesome things will happen if you use that skill inside here. After that, please come out! " said Galenus while activating his skill as well.

He took out one of the Scalpels that were under his doctor's cloak and sliced through the space he had in front of him.

[Dissect Dimensions: Typhon Rage]

Instantly, a red line mark appeared from the empty air and the thin sliced mark widened even more, like it was being forcefully opened.

From within that wedge of space, a strong tornado blew Dustin out of the Sanatorium by force.

'BOOOOOM'

Outside the Sanatorium where Dustin landed, a cloud of dust soared high into the ceiling of the labyrinth.

No one knows what the fate of Dustin is today because of the cloud of dust.

Galenus walks out of the Sanatorium casually to check on Dustin's condition.

"Sigh~ Looks like Rila's death really made you very weak, you can't even use half of your strength" Galenus said after observing Dustin's poor performance.

If it was Dustin who used to be while still active in 'Red Star War', then the attack he had launched earlier would not have been possible to blow him away.

'Tap... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps... Taps...'

While Galen was waiting for the dust cloud to disappear, the sound of running footsteps could be heard approaching.

He looked towards the source of the voice and saw that Raluk and his group had arrived, followed by Conley, Amara and Bodil.

"You better not get too close! otherwise you may die, find a safe hiding place" Galenus advised Raluk and others.

"What the hell is going on here? " asked Raluk after seeing the chaos going on in that place.

"There's nothing you need to worry about, we just greet each other as old friends. Haahahahhh " replied Galenus with a laugh.

"Shut your mouth, you fucking doctor! I don't remember being friends before, "sobbed Dustin as he put away the clouds of dust around him.

After the dust cloud disappeared, people were finally able to see the conditions of Dustin.

The [Ark Protector] skill that he managed to activate at the last moment to protect him fell apart.

The Full Body Armor he was using had also been severely damaged, especially in his Helmet section, some shards had broken apart from there.

Raluk and the others who were in that place were very surprised to see the bad condition of Dustin at this time.

Especially the former adventurers who had previously fought Dustin, they very well understood how strong the knight was.

They never imagined that a monster they thought was impossible to defeat would be injured this badly.

"Collars: Annihilation... Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk! "

Dustin continuously coughed as he wanted to activate his skill. Moreover, a pitch-black liquid started to come out from the cracks of his broken armor.

"Don't force yourself. From the beginning, you should have known the reason for Rila's death for whom. Don't blame others for your own weakness" Galenus said.

"Shut up! Be quiet! Be quiet! It's all your fault, I won't... "

{Enough get there, stop fighting. If you make it to the lackeys more than this, I have no other choice but to throw you guys into the Abyss. } Aaron said in a cold voice.

Hearing the orders from his master through the [Soul link], Dustin suddenly stopped in the middle of his conversation.

{Don't forget your duty Dustin! } says Aaron reminds Dustin.

Dustin looked at Raluk's group standing in the distance and saw that Jeanne was also standing there.

{Good! I understand master. } replied Dustin.

After feeling that the [Soul link] had been cut off, he looked at Galenus once more.

"Don't think it'll end here, I'll reward you later" Dustin said before walking away to Raluk's group.

"Then let's go, Princess Jeanne, you've been waiting for your arrival" Dustin told the princess.

It just so happened that the Full Body Armor he was using was repairing himself at the moment.

Jeanne nodded slightly and let him guide her to the [Throne Room]. His personal bodyguard, Ingrid, a former adventurer and Raluk and his group also follow both.

Seeing Dustin walking away, Galenus could only sigh while shaking his head.

He looked at the damage caused by the fight and ordered the goblins who were still living in the Sanatorium.

"All of you, re-close the hole and repair the damaged part. You've been lounging in the park all day, doing what I told you to do "Galenus commanded the goblins.

"Ready Doc! " answer the goblins.

Galen returned to the Sanatorium after hearing the Goblins' answers.
