Kareem frowned in confusion and the once again turned to look at his left and he did not see anything or anybody standing. But he could still hear the voices, as if a snake was hissing much close to him. He tried hard to concentrate what the hissing voice was telling him and now he could clearly hear a man's spooky voice.
"The power of a snake lies in its venom and the source of the venom is its fang. Kareem! Cut the fang and you can defeat your father. You are strong; you just need to stop getting scared. Do not be scared or it reduces the power. Believe that you are stronger than him and only then you will be able to fight it."
Kareem closed his eyes as he had now recognised the voice. It was none other than Lavan who was now guiding him as to how to defeat Augus. Kareem then opened his eyes in surprise, "well that was pretty quick service Lavan. Thanks." Once again he held out his hands, emitting dark fumes from his hands, aiming it straight towards Augus.
Meanwhile...
Horus had stood up on his feet once again as soon as Rhehan walked closer to him with a sword in his hand. In one swift move Rhehan swung his sword across the man's neck but Horus quickly held out his sword stopping the man's attack. Both the men applied all their force, while Rhehan tried to swing the sword across his neck, but the old man used all his force to stop him. Suddenly Horus punched the boy in his stomach and Rhehan jerked back a little, as Horus once again jerked him away with his sword now.
"Boy, I am way skilful and smarter than you, in all this." Horus chuckled proudly.
The old man suddenly rotated his body in a 360 degree angle and with much force jumped up in the air, swiping the sword across the boy's body. Rhehan quickly also jumped sideways, stopping the sword with his own sword pushing the man'ssword in the opposite direction.
"Now do you think, I am stronger?" Horus chuckled again, once again aiming the sword at him.
Rhehan in return did not reply but immediately kicked the man on his legs, throwing him backwards on the ground. But the old man did not leave a grip of his sword and quickly held it towards Rhehan. Rhehan once again hit the man's sword with his own sword creating a loud thunderous and sharp sound. Rhehan then applied all his body weight on his hands, as the old man lay on the ground holding back Rhehan's sword with his sword.
Horus's own sword had now almost touched his own throat, due to Rhehan's force and a few blood drops, fell down from his throat as the sword pierced his skin a bit. "Ah! A bit more of cut and I will die with my own sword and then I shall reincarnate into a new and fresh body making your lives hell again.'' The man chuckled loudly in happiness.
Rhehan immediately retraced his hands away from the man's sword as too much of blood had already started dripping from his throat now. The boy actually got scared that if he manages to cut any wrong vein the man will actually die with his own sword, thus not letting the cycle of the curse to stop.
Horus smirked looking at Rhehan and then chuckled loudly. "Hahaha! Look at the dilemma you have to face poor boy. You want to see me killed but you also do not want me to kill myself. Such is the irony of the fate." Horus chuckled and then once held his own sword closer to his throat, letting more and more blood fall from hit.
Rhehan gaped at the man in horror and rapidly ran towards him pulling away the man's sword away from his throat. As more a,nd more blood dripped down Horus laughed uncontrollably. "Did you think I would rather let you kill me than I would kill myself? You think I am a fool and it never crossed my mind that I could kill myself?' the man immediately kicked the boy with his feet, making Rhehan fall on the ground with a loud 'thud' right on his back.
Rhehan made sure he also does not loose the grip of his sword. Suddenly he pounced in the air, this time attacking the man's back of the head. He leaped high up in the air, swinging his sword towards the left, aiming straight to his head.
Looking at him Horus too stood up on his feet and once again raised his own sword.
"CLASSHHHHH!!!" The screeching noise of the metal once again roared in the room.
But the impact was so huge that Horus's sword fell on the ground and Rhehan looked at him with much anger and determination. He was once again going to leap up in the air, this time swiping the sword straight across his throat when suddenly Horus jumped up in the air and tilted his body a bit, kicking Rhehan right on his face.
"BAMMM!!" Echoed a voice as the strong kick hit the boy with much impact
Rhehan immediately spat out blood from his mouth as the man's foot hit him so hard and he immediately swung his arm at the speed of lightening and swiped the sword across Horus's stretched out leg, chopping it into two parts.
"Arggghhhhhhhh!!! The man screamed in pain as his leg was now Chopped right below his knees and the blood was oozing out uncontrollably. He fell down on the ground, while holding his thigh with his hands in extreme pain.
Rhehan once again held out his sword this time aiming for his stomach. He quickly jumped in the air lifting his entire body, aiming straight towards his stomach. But Horus immediately rolled over his body averting the aim and instead picked up his own sword. He hit Rhehan's sword with so much anger and pain that Rhehan's sword went flying in the air and landed with a loud thud on the ground, far away. Rhehan was stunned for a few seconds looking at the man's rage and was about to go and pick up his sword, when he noticed a faint smile on Horus's face.
The injured man on the ground had now pointed his sword towards his own stomach and was about to stab himself to death. "See you in the next birth my dear son."
"Noooo!!" Rhehan shouted at the top of his lungs, and jumped forwards towards the man.
