Luck is a Charm

Chapter 156: Exterminate Demon Strike (II)

The vines keeping Daemon Kaiso in place caused him to panic a little bit as he tried to use his ravenous claw to slice the vines in halves.

However, the vines regenerated slowly after and continued their pressure into holding his right leg. 

Daemon Kaiso stared at Zen who was getting closer and closer as he tried to search for the culprit since it wasn't Zen that's casting these vines. When his eyesight landed on the two princesses, Daemon Kaiso became enraged when he saw Leila Dragoon and Krista Dragoon smiling evilly as they held their wands.

"RARGH!" Daemon Kaiso roared in rage but he couldn't do anything else besides trying to slice the vines in halves.

At this time, Zen finally caught up with Daemon Kaiso and thanked the two princesses inwardly for saving him from the embarrassment of being unable to chase after Daemon Kaiso to strike him down.

With a grateful look, Zen stabbed the spiritual sword directly in the core of Daemon Kaiso, causing him to open his eyes wide when he felt tremendous pain. 

"ARHHHHHHHHHH"

Daemon Kaiso screamed in agony but Zen didn't relax his guard one bit as he continued the Exterminate Demon Strike technique, exploding the sword's true qi that is piercing on the core.

With the immense amount of true qi in it, the explosion completely exterminated Daemon Kaiso and his form. His demon form also vanished, returning his original look as his lower part continued to dissipate into dust.

Meanwhile, Jared Kaiso saw the demon who threw him away was actually his father and cried out in agony.

"FATHER!" Jared Kaiso screamed as he lunged at Daemon Kaiso.

Daemon Kaiso merely smiled a little bit at him before turning completely into dust and Jared Kaiso could only cry when his father was still protecting him at the end of his life.

Jared Kaiso gritted his teeth at how useless and powerless he was to prevent his father's death.

He turned his head to stare at Zen as he clenched his fist. "WHY? My father didn't even offend you so why are you ruthless to kill him when it was only me that offended you."

Zen was rendered speechless by the speech of Jared Kaiso and shrugged his shoulders. 

"True, he didn't offend me since we don't even know each other." Zen calmly replied and continued.

"However, it was because of you, Jared Kaiso that he came to me, trying to kill me for hurting you, and due to his greed, he became a puppet for others to manipulate."

Jared Kaiso could only punch his own chest as tears continued to flow out of his eyes while he touched the dust in the ground, the only remains from his beloved father who always treasures him.

"I-It's my fault. Father is always exhausted from the workload while I only kept myself busy with my stupid dick in women, causing more troubles to his stress." Jared Kaiso mumbled softly.

Afterward, he turned toward Zen and asked, "Kill me now and end my suffering."

Zen didn't say anything else besides nodding his head. Raising his sword up, Jared Kaiso closed his eyes as the sword pierced his heart.

Jared Kaiso only smiled as he exclaimed, "Father, this unfilial son shall accompany you and listen to you now."

With those last words, Jared Kaiso has died, thus ending the grudge between the Kaiso Family and Zen. 

"Since it has come to this, I promise not to target the rest of the Kaiso family unless they decide to offend me," Zen promised as he snapped his finger as the essence flame appeared, burning Jared Kaiso into dust, allowing him to mix with his father's dust.

"I never thought you would have listened to his words and killed him," Krista Dragoon walked forward and said softly.

"He no longer has the will to live anymore when he witnesses his own father's death, added with the fact that he tried to struggle away from him because he couldn't recognize him at all," Zen replied and continued.

"Jared Kaiso was a useless son that has done zero recognizable achievements besides the negative, it was better for him to die and try to reincarnate if that's really true."

If reincarnation was truly real then Jared Kaiso might have a second chance to redeem himself in that life.

Either that or he can resume his debauchery in a life that only has people hating him. None of that matters anymore since Zen could care less about their fate.

Krista Dragoon also nodded her head in silence as she held no interest in them either. In fact, she felt it was the best outcome for them to die since they could no longer harm the innocent since it was a fact that Daemon Kaiso had sold himself to the Demons.

If Daemon Kaiso were to live then many more humans would suffer under his ravenous claws and regenerative ability that could cause chaos everywhere. 

"Welp, now that the Kaiso family is officially over now, we can at least take a breather from all their upcoming schemes right," Zen exclaimed happily as he held Krista Dragoon by the waist.

Krista Dragoon tried to push him off but she realized Zen had closed his eyes and fallen deep asleep.

He has overexerted himself from the Exterminate Demon Strike and it was due to luck that he managed to use the technique he just learned without any practice.

Krista Dragoon shook her head and curved her lips upward as she allowed Zen to use her as a pillow.

"Who would have imagined a person that just slain a powerful demon to be like him?" Krista Dragoon mumbled softly as she sat down on the ground, putting Zen's head in her lap.

"Sister Krista is right, a demon is a troublesome being that will take at least 10-20 mages to kill but we did it with only three of us," Leila Dragoon sat next to Krista Dragoon and said cheerfully.

However, Krista Dragoon shook her head and said, "All we did was cast some vines to delay Daemon Kaiso's movement while Zen was the protagonist, striking him down in one strike."

Krista Dragoon heaved a helpless sigh as she pondered in her mind. 'When will I ever be able to obtain those kinds of powers so I wouldn't be in my current predicament?'
