"You Bastard ! I'll kill you " Zen grew furious and attacked him with his flame swords which were easily ruptured . He then used fire magic "phoenix waves " which pushed him out of the walls damaging the palace . Shu Saura wiped the dripping blood from his mouth and summoned his blade . The blade was his identity passed on to him from generations which could take shape of anything . He maipulated the sword and formed two copies with it . They had an intense fight in the end the magic took the best out of Zen . He was running out of mana the magic force . Still continued to fight but Shu Saura used the wicked technique , the best of his arsenal which made people fear him. The Venemum Excalibur !. He charged at Zen with enormous speed and Zen tries to save himself which slashed his arm . The poison spread through his veins . Zen fell down dropping his sword. The poison without an antidote . Alisha and Neil approach them . Grieving on agony she begins to heal Zen but the pain was unbearable . She could stop the poison from spreading further but the affect of which paralysed his arm . Neil and Alisha were delaberately held up fighting with his men and Ashia gets severely wounded in the process . She looked at Zen and stood still at his appearance . His eyes were blood red , lifeless , filled with rage and helplessness .
"I won't allow him to take you ..NEVER !" He gritted his teeth and was about to stand but Alisha restrained him .
"You don't have to . I can't see you like this anymore . Let's ... end .. This "
"Alisha what are you saying ? Don't you trust me ? "
Alisha looked bewildered. It was a tough question . She did trust him but accepting it would only lead him to death . Fighting Shu Saura who possessed the dangerous poison which had no antidote would be a foolish thing to do . So she chose the latter .
"No. I don't trust you " Only God knew how much those words filled with delude hurt Alisha . Like picks in every corner of her body . Only God knew how she brought herself to deceive Zen through those cruel , brutal words .
Zen shoved her aside and stood up .
"We don't have anything between us . From this day I set you free all those ties that bonded you to me . It was all for nothing after all . A vain attempt . " Alisha broke down into tears . Her heart screamed , she never wanted to part away from him . She never dreamed of such a thing . Shu Saura clapped .
"Ahhh ... finally A dramatic end . Anyways 10 minutes more I'm glad it ended quicker than expected . Don't I tell you Zen she was never interested in you in the first place . Let's go Alisha . I do own the rightful place to call you my wife " He took her hand . He created a magical ball and blew on it after reciting some words and instantly the spell broke bringing all the captives back to their senses .
"I did my job . Your people will arrive in no time . Oh yes ... You won't need this now " He removed the ring from her finger and flicked over . Alisha captured the moments of the ring falling to the ground crushing the little hopes she had in her . All her dreams , her happiness shattered into fragments of despair . She Saura dragged her away as his carriage arrived . Zen stood like a statue a drop of tear left his eye, for the first time ever they were tears of sadness in eyes which left his beautiful eyelashes wet . Neil stood beside him as he began to walk with furtive steps . He held his back and took him to his quarters. Rajhi smiled acer witnessing the entire scenario . His goal was reached .
"Things went smoothly " He said .
