Chapter 1011 Just the beginning...

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Kahn's domineering countenance and his majestic voice echoed on the battlefield as he decided to impart cruel and unforgiving mercy on the Hero of Time.

Blip!

The next second, Anakin's entire surroundings changed and he was chained on a platform while thousands of citizens watched.

"Give up, Gideon Var Melvinger. Your kingdom has lost the war and all of your royal knights are also dead." declared a middle-aged man with a majestic sword in his hands.

This man wore a black and golden majestic attire similar to a longcoat made for royalty.

His cold black eyes and long hair along with a beard were the striking features of his appearance, enough to instill fear in others as if they would be devoured in moments if they came close to him.

In this setting, Gideon was in his mid-30s and so was the man holding the sword over his head.

"You!... Don't think this is the end, King Salvatore.

People of my kingdom will rise again whether their king is dead or alive. That, I can promise you on my life." spoke Gideon as he bled from all his four severed limbs.

This was not just some illusion, but rather a different world, a different timeline, and a completely different life for Anakin, the Hero of Time.

In this world, Gideon was a righteous King who saw his people losing in war after being attacked by a neighboring kingdom out of the blue. Kahn Salvatore, the King of the enemy side had massacred all his people, butchered nobles and high-ranking officers, and tortured him by cutting his limbs and chaining him in front of the frightened civilian populace. One by one, he executed most of Gideon's chivalrous knights just to set an example in front of the public…

"It's been an honor my lord." spoke an elderly man who was the commander of the royal knights.

Slash!

With a single slash, Kahn beheaded the old man as thousands of civilians watched it in the capital's main square.

Gideon closed his eyes, heartbroken by the fact that his once mentor and the most trusted knight was killed so mercilessly right in front of him.

"You… you will pay for this!" he spoke with bloodthirsty eyes.

"No, not my son!!… I beg you, please leave him alone. Take my life instead, but please spare him." pleaded Gideon, flailing in those chains as he saw his son in the enemy's clutches.

Just now, he witnessed the love of his life getting killed in front of his eyes but he could not do anything as he didn't even have arms or legs.

But the shock wasn't even absorbed and Kahn already targeted his innocent son, who was the pearl of his eyes. "Shh! Quiet. Do not disturb me." said Kahn coldly.

Kahn then put his dagger back and pulled out his greatsword again as he looked at the shocked and frozen child who just witnessed his mother's murder. "Nothing personal child. You have sinned of being born as this man's son."

Slash!

With a single swing, Kahn beheaded the innocent prince as his father watched helplessly.

"No!! Not my son!... not my son… Arhghhh!" bellowed Gideon in sorrow.

Soon, his wails and screams full of sadness and loss filled the surroundings as if heaven and earth were weeping alongside him. Thousands of eyewitnesses who saw this horrifying execution of the royal family stood helplessly while being corned by the enemy kingdom's armies.

"Hey hey… isn't walking into a room and killing a bunch of children your thing, Anakin?" mocked the bearded Kahn.

"You!… Even if I have to sell my soul to the devil, I will exact vengeance on you! I will make you regret the moment you were born. My fury will know no bounds and even the gods can't save you from me!" spoke Gideon like a hero of a novel as if this was the beginning of his revenge story. "Shut the hell up, you narcissistic asshole! You're making my ears bleed with those cringy-ass dialogues." rebuked Kahn in annoyance. "Sure, sure… Get reborn in the world and I will again take away everything you've ever loved in that life as well." said Kahn and walked towards the chained Hero of Time.

"You… Even if I have to make a deal with the King of Hell, I will come back and kill you!" declared Gideon, his eyes full of wrath and fury.

"Is that so? Then why don't I send you there?

And when you meet Yama…" spoke Kahn and smirked.

"Tell him I said, Hi." Slash!

With no sign of guilt or sympathy in his eyes, future Kahn beheaded Anakin aka Gideon.

The cold eyes symbolized his disregard for empathy as he did not regret killing a wife and a child in front of a helpless husband and a father at all.

However… What the Hero of Time didn't know… this was just the beginning of his Nightmares.
