Chapter 60: I am the invader!

"Why" Arthur repeated his question with a calm face, as if he had not been hurt, his mind was full of chaotic thoughts, but he kept his composure and did not lose control of himself.

"That's because you ordered it" Odrick answered indifferently, while staring at Arthur with lifeless, rigid eyes.

"Because I ordered it?"Arthur muttered to himself.

"Die, Sir" Odrick pulled out his sword with force, which made Arthur's body fall back as he bent his back, scarlet blood flowed from the mouth of Arthur, who smiled mockingly at himself.

'The same things happen all the time, I'm still being betrayed by the people closest to me' Arthur sighed deeply and continued to stand his ground without making any reaction or defending himself.

It's not that Arthur lost his resolve to survive, but his body didn't want to move and he was stuck in the ground like an old tree.

Odrick calmly retreated and stabbed with his sword again, aiming at Arthur's heart this time, as soon as the sword stabbed Arthur's back and jammed for a few millimeters, a huge beak grabbed Audric's shoulder and pulled him hard, causing him to lose his resolve and stagger violently as he retreated several meters back.

The Giant Eagle appeared next to odric and continued his attack so that he waved his sword-like paws in an attempt to kill odric, odric did not delay in responding, he casually put his sword in front of him and stopped the Eagle's claws, with his other hand he grabbed the Eagle by the foot and waved it violently and then released it to crash into some nearby trees.

During the time that the Eagle and Odrick exchanged blows, Arthur regained control of his body, moved his hand so slowly that he pulled out his sword with difficulty and took a fighting position while struggling not to fall to the ground.

With looks filled with hatred Odrick ran towards Arthur as he cut with his sword violently, several blades of air coated with Haki flew towards Arthur targeting his hands and feet.

Arthur didn't take long to respond this time as he swayed in his place like a snake and dodged the blades that targeted him.

Arthur put his sword in front of him, waiting to join hands with Odrick, but as soon as Odrick approached him, the eagle appeared from his side and attacked him with his giant wing, because of his focus on Arthur, Odrick did not expect this sudden attack, which made him injured and retreat several meters back, pulling the dust with his feet.

Before Odrick could regain his balance, Arthur suddenly appeared in front of him, waving his hand as hard as possible and clenching his teeth in pain.

Odrick raised his sword and blocked Arthur's blow, but he sensed a strong danger coming from behind, with a sudden bow Odrick dodged the Eagle claws that passed over his head, taking advantage of this moment, Arthur stabs with his sword, aiming at Odrick's heart.

Odrick quickly wrapped his chest with a Haki, with a violent collision Odrick retreated backwards as some drops of blood dripped from his chest.

'Damn, I missed my chance!' Arthur cursed angrily as he gritted his teeth.

'What's wrong with my body?, why doesn't it move according to my wishes?, I've had more serious physical injuries in the past than this but I've continued to fight well, so why now?' Several questions appeared in Arthur's mind but he did not delve into them and continued to focus on his enemy standing in front of him.

"Sir, why did you attack me?" confusion appeared on Odrick's face as he stared at Arthur.

'Is he making fun of me?' Arthur did not answer and continued to stare at his surroundings with sharp eyes, looked at the eagle standing at his side with his body full of scars and winked with his eyes.

The Eagle flapped its giant wings as it prepared to take off, Arthur quickly jumped on his back and they flew away from odrick.

"Sir, what's going on!" Odrick shouted at the top of his voice, asking with a heart full of confusion.

...

[Kuri County]

Kah! Kah! Kah!

Arthur coughed up some scarlet blood with some blackness, but he didn't care and continued to focus his sharp eyes on the forest below him, after checking it several times he found a small cave.

"Get down here" Arthur patted the eagle on the back and gently commanded him.

After disembarking, he took the fruit that the eagle carried during their escape and put it in his pocket, and then ordered the eagle to fly away, with slow steps he walked and stood in front of the cave entrance, examining the darkness in front of him with his sharp eyes, after making sure that the cave was empty he entered with a heart burdened with pain.

The cold spread in the dark cave full of brutality, Arthur found a good corner and sat down while enduring the pain he felt.

He took the fruit out of his pocket and looked at it deeply, without any signs of backing down he took a big bite and started eating it, it tasted disgusting like the taste of blood stained with mud but Arthur didn't care about it he ate various disgusting things in his life from stale bread to raw rats full of diseases.

As soon as he swallowed the fruit, he felt a slight change in his body and some initial instructions appeared in his consciousness that were similar to a manual for use, he emptied his mind of all thoughts and focused all his consciousness in order to control his blood.

After several unsuccessful attempts, he was able to move the blood in his wound and with great difficulty corrected its course so that it returned to his veins and restored his blood circulation to health.

But suddenly he lost his concentration and blood seeped through his wound again.

"This is very difficult!" he calmed himself down and turned all his focus back to controlling his blood, this time he didn't want to treat the wound, but wanted to check his body from the inside and see why he was strange.

A mysterious outline of Arthur's body appeared in his consciousness that showed all his internal organs and veins, Arthur inspected the outline deeply but suddenly froze and opened his mouth in shock.

"What the hell is going on!" the reason Arthur was very surprised was knowing that he had two hearts, one on the left and the other on the right, although the other heart seemed to be frozen, but it was beating at a very low rate.

Arthur calmed himself from his shock and a gloomy expression appeared on his face, he breathed deeply and said in a voice filled with indignation.

"Who are you?"

After a few seconds of eerie silence, a demonic voice appeared out of nowhere in Arthur's ear, whispering," you've finally figured it out"

When Arthur heard these words he felt a great horror, he soaked his back with cold sweat and swallowed a dose of saliva to moisten his throat, which had dried up from the severity of his shock

"Are you surprised, didn't you expect that I would answer you, hahahaha" the demonic voice continued to whisper in Arthur's ear, his words were filled with horror which made Arthur's body shiver and sweat.

"Who are you and why do you live inside my body!" Arthur calmed himself down with difficulty and asked in a broken voice, Arthur has been exposed to hundreds of terrifying situations in his life, but this is the first time he felt this fear that made his limbs stiff in place.

"I am the invader"

"Destroyer of Worlds"

"Fantasy monster"

"You can call me whatever you want, as for why I live in your body, it's because I am the one who brought you to this world" the demonic voice replied amiably without concealing anything.

Arthur was worried about the way the person inside him was being treated, but he continued to ask his questions with a gloomy face, he wanted to withdraw as much information as possible.

"What do you want from me?"

The devilish voice was silent for some time, suddenly he said: "your body!"

Arthur's right hand stretched out, grabbed his neck and began to strangle him, everything happened so quickly that Arthur did not expect his body to betray him.

Arthur controlled his blood but he got a severe shock his body split into two half under his control and half under the control of the other heart in his body, Arthur did not let fear control him, he controlled the blood under his authority and attacked the second half of his body with it.

The blood tangled inside his veins, which made several arteries burst, but this did not cause a danger to Arthur's life because it prevented the blood from leaking inside his body, the pressure from the Battle of the blood made his hand that strangled him relax, then he was able to take a breath of rest.

The battle that took place between his blood and the invader's blood was so strange that Arthur could not understand what was going on, but he continued to attack the other party's blood.
