ELECTUS 104 Kid Versus Watchtower

Lia did expect this nonsense from her StepFather big time, she was uncertain about her brothers but the fact that her mother didn't support her either, felt like a kick in the head.

She felt like breaking down but she hid her emotions and stood tall(5.4ft) in front of her opposition. In most cases, she is the one who made whoever oppose her cry, but at this case where it feels like her family raised daggers and stabbed her continually, she felt frozen and helpless again for the first time in a very long while.

"What are you b.a.s.t.a.r.ds waiting for? Kill them!"

Yelled King Macek from the Castle Watch tower ordering the remaining Guards who were standing along with the crowd, to attack.

"Yeah that does it!"

Said Kaleem swiftly and he started running towards the WatchTower.

"Son what are you doing?"

Yelled Saleem.

"Trust me. I found our way out of here."

"This looks promising."

Added Jim.

As Kaleem reached the Watchtower, he gave a punch to it with all his might which shook half of the Entire WatchTower but didn't manage to make it collapse.

"Oh I'm screwed."

Whispered King Macek in a small cold tone.

Kaleem proceeded to punch the Watch Tower again and again and every time he did, the Tower shook more than it did the last time, becoming a whole lot more unstable by the second.

"Son. Whatever you are trying to doo, be quick. Guards are approaching from all sides!"

As Lia witnessed Kaleem continuing to punch the WatchTower with his b.l.o.o.d.y fists, he wondered with herself, thinking

"Does he have magical powers as well?"

But her thoughts were stopped as the WatchTower started rumbling to the point of no return.

The whole 40 foot tall and 15 foot wide Watch Tower collapsed as if it was nothing. But it was sure something for Kaleem. It took him 2 broken fingers and 19 Punches to bring the whole Tower down. Luckily the bones were only cracked. Not separated in two.

Although he isn't indestructible, super strength offered him twice the endurance he had before discovering his power. He punched a Stone WatchTower with crus.h.i.+ng impactful speed 19 times and risked only 2 broken fingers. One would think that he has both powers.

But the King as if angels carried him down, escaped the collapse without a bruise.

"Come grab the King. He is our way out of here."

Yelled Kaleem. No one would attack if the group of 4 threatens to break the King's neck and send him up the river for good. And Macek nearly doesn't have the courage to sacrifice himself for the 4 enemies to be killed.

Thinking that Kaleem was calling Lia to do the job, she ran towards Kaleem which looked like a little duck was running before she got pa.s.sed by Saleem shaking the ground as he ran, leaving Lia to stop on the spot and realising how awkward the situation she just put herself into is.

"Oh you didn't mean...i mean alright let's get out of this h.e.l.lhole. My boat is on the beach!"

She yelled awkwardly.

Saleem approached Macek who curled into a ball expecting fists and kicks. He grabbed 5.7ft tall Macek behind the neck and raised him 2 feet above the ground with one hand, before he said

"Why not compare your strength with me now instead of a maid!"

"Don't kill me please!"

"Kill you? No. You are worth a royal amount of Gold unfortunately to everyone. Now tell your Guards to drop on the ground or you lose your head."

"Drop your weapons. Drop them on the ground and clear a way. That's an order."

Yelled Macek in a tone similar to the one scared little dogs make.

"I said for them to drop on the ground as well you piece of c.r.a.p. Do as i say!"

Yelled Saleem.

"Do as he said by the name of G.o.d Xakro. He will crush me to bits if you don't."

Seeing no other option to choose from and seeing it as a clear order of desperation from the King of Wide Rivers Kingdom himself, every Guard dropped on the ground weaponless and the Citizens cleared out the way. Lia's family seemed to have disappeared on the crowd long ago, making their answers clear to Lia and everyone.

"Run. As I said before, my Boat is on the beach, it can fit all of us. The two of you are more than capable to lift it and push it out of the Water, unless you want me to do it!"

She said swiftly as she waved her hand towards the beach.

"No need for you to lift. Let's goo!"

Said Saleem in a warm tone.

"If any of you try anything Heroic, the King will lose his head along with you. Don't be a fool, live longer."

Yelled Jim rea.s.suring everyone there their place in the world.
