Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 66: Claim 3

Running away wasn't something anyone of them would have expected, so it stood to reason that as the feminine giant blood red tree took huge strides to escape, they were all stuck staring at her direction in surprise, at least until one of Gynaika's followers threw a spear with such speed and accuracy, Rezar felt his heart grow cold. The spear planted itself solidly in her back, eliciting a pain screech as more than half of the spear had sunk into her tree like body. It kept her in place long enough for Rezar to make a move.

[Bind]

The chains surged forwards in an incredibly threatening manner and stabbed into her branches, or basically the parts of her body that were her legs and arms, completely pinning her down. But she was stronger than she looked as she pulled at the chains, dragging Rezar as his feet dug furrows into the ground, ruining the pristine carpet of beautiful green grass and flowers that stretched all the way to the beach.

Rezar furrowed his brow as the chains pushed forwards even more and stabbed through her body, before stretching out and curling around her to keep her completely bound and captive.

She had terrible wounds, but she was Dryad, it would take a little more than those wounds to keep her completely down. Rezar turned around and made a bee line for Gynaika, his face furrowed in worry as Priest tried to heal the damage done to her.

"Rezar my healing can't keep up with the bleeding and the curse that's placed in her. The dryad used a skill that would not only cause the wound to keep on bleeding for as long as it's open, but there's a blood seed in her body, its attached itself to her heart and its slowly draining her of blood while stretching its roots allover her body. I can't slow it down or stop it without a full surgery, and I'm not prepared for it. She's going to die."

Rezar didn't like the sound of that, it didn't matter what Priest thought, but she was in this situation because she had put herself in harm's way for his sake. She didn't need to, Rezar could not be killed except by an object of holy and demonic might, basically a weapon that has both attributes and even he knew that such was too rare.

He ignored the stink eye most of her followers were given him, he had to find a way to keep them under a tight leash, they were her followers not his, so it stands to reason they could betray him later, but before he has to deal with that he has to save Gynaika first, and thankfully there was way. He was cursed, and while it might sound like a terrible thing, in some special cases, like the current one they were all facing, his curse was a blessing.

Rezar bent down and in on swift motion used one of the sickles to slice apart his wrist. Ruby red streams of blood gushed out of the wound, dripping down his hand and into her open mouth.

Everyone was shocked, and her followers even more so as they moved forwards to attack, but Jason's large form and Neema's look that promised death and a painful one at that forced them to remain where they were, but the rage in their eyes was palpable, they probably felt that Rezar was defiling their holy priestess. Rezar on the other hand didn't give a shit.

It didn't even take five seconds for Gynaika to surge forwards, opening her eyes wide as she started vomiting a significant amount of blood and probably her breakfast too. Everyone gave her space as her complexion seemed to go through a variety of changes from extremely pale, to bright red. She seemed to be in a lot of pain as she hacked and coughed and clawed at her neck where green veins could be seen.

Rezar was just as shocked as they were, he didn't exactly know what was going to happen when he gave her his blood. He had only ever done this once for Jason when he was seriously injured, but this was the first time he was doing this on a live person, and even more so one that wasn't really human.

Gynaika gave one final hack as a bloodied orb with roots clinging to her Insides could be seen on her lips. She stretched her hands to pull it out. It was a rather unnerving sight as she pulled what was obviously the blood seed out of her mouth, and as she did so, what followed was an extremely long bunch of thin blood red roots that were very much alive. It was a struggle, but she was able to completely pull the roots out, before throwing the seed to the ground and falling on her back completely passed out.

The seed had its roots waving about in the air like the legs of a centipede when it was turned over on its back. Rezar shuddered, shaking with disgusts as he looked at Priest who looked back at him with a surprised look on his face before saying.

"She's fully healed, there's no scratch, nothing at all to show that she was injured apart from her ripped clothing h-how?" Rezar didn't give him an answer as he turned to face the still bound Dryad, he's [Bind] skill was almost out of its duration.

"We'll talk later old man, but for now we need to find out where these visitors of ours had come from." Priest opened his mouth to say something, but he kept his mouth shut knowing that truly this wasn't the time for questions, they had pressing concerns.

Rezar walked until he was right in front of the Dryad, and just to drive his point home of not being in the mood to play around, he stomped down hard on her wooden leg, his face completely impassive as the sounds of wood splintering filled the cove. Her screams and tears were ignored as he walked up to her face, and then pulled on her branch/leaf like hair.

"Now tell me, who else wants to claim this place?"
