Chapter 138: This Is A Request You Can't Refuse

.......

Then he used an ability he acquired after absorbing Youpi, the ability to fire explosive blasts of aura from his arm.

A single one carries enough power to severely damage a large rock formation, an attack of such strength is making its way towards Yasuo who seems to be taking his taking to go through the portal, something Meruem noticed allowing him to come to the conclusion Yasuo wants him to...

Yasuo simply disappeared evading the destructive blast of aura with the portal disappearing as well allowing the blast to head to another target far in the front.

Another building in the distance putting it to rubbles though something that could easily be noticed is the fact this blast is nowhere as destructive as the one he used previously.

His goal isn't to kill Yasuo after all and since he doesn't really know the human's level of power, he decided to fire a blast that's not that weak nor is it that strong but fast enough to hit almost anyone except someone with a teleportation ability like him and his recovered memory didn't tell him much about the person.

"Can you tell me? Since I'm dead anyway, you shouldn't have any problem just letting me know of her location... Also, what do you want? You seem to want me to do something and you should realize such tricks won't work on me so talk..."

Throughout the conversation, the King's expression never changed only his expression became calmer after hearing Komugi's name recalling his memories.

And since he already noticed the fact he's dying, his interest in the world basically disappeared as all that was left in his mind is that shining beacon within the dark tunnel, he just wants to meet her one last time...

He also noticed Yasuo's strange behavior that's too obvious to miss, the human could've left at any moment simply teleporting away yet he took his time like he's waiting for something.

But the King is also ready, if the human before him didn't answer, if the human didn't let him know Komugi's location, or if he has even a hint of suspicion that Komugi is hurt then he'll have to use force or if she's dead...

Yasuo who has appeared just a bit away from his previous location smiled before saying something strange.

"Actually, what I want you to do is quite simple. I want you to consume them just like they said and I also want you to consume several of these..."

He explained while bringing what looks like a silver metallic syringe made specifically for the King not long before.

Made from the same indestructible material he named Yasium when he was creating his lab, once he showed the string he directly threw it back into the portal which has disappeared after.

A simple yet complex way only he's capable of though he was only able to produce what he can call a perfect result previously when he was using the debt collector ability.

The kind of power he had allowed him to perform miracles as not only was he creating his lab at that moment.

He was also researching the most important thing and the result was the silver liquid and he has been looking forward to what Meruem consuming it will result in with his miraculous innate ability and specialist ability.

The result was certainly fascinating in Yasuo's eyes, a phenomenal result that brought a happy smile on his face, the exact result he wanted because he didn't want to risk the deadly poison within Meruem to be defeated.

The King has to die by the end of the day, the result of the liquid being injected will just stall the process for a few more hours.

The human that truly stands atop of the known world, a monstrous human that was born within them wasn't someone who could be intimidated nor did the King's malicious intent have any effect on him as he just uttered his next words calmly.

"You also seem to misunderstand something. The human you fought, Netero, me and him aren't on the same level so even though I can clearly see you became stronger, I still see an extremely high chance of winning against you so what I request wasn't really a request, well, its a request you have no choice but to accept if you want to see the girl."

Yasuo of course knows such words will only hurt the King's ego and will get him nowhere.

He is the King after all and a strong one at that with an arrogance befitting of his statue so of course, he won't bow down no matter what Yasuo said, even if he knows Yasuo's true strength.

The only thing that can make Meruem hesitate is his light in the middle of darkness, the white butterfly called Komugi but to know that he needs to do something he doesn't want to do.

Something that could kill him because how can he trust Yasuo before him? What if what's inside the syringe will only make him die faster? Hesitation Yasuo's next words eliminated.

"So how about this, we'll fight, if you win I'll directly teleport you to the girl's location without requesting anything from you but if you lose, you'll do as I say then I'll teleport you to her location... In either case, you win the most so what do you think?"

All the time thinking the King needed before coming to the most logical choice is a second and only then did he nod.

"I accept but the fight can only go for 5 minutes, the one who appears to be winning in that time span is the winner because as you know, I don't have much time left."

Yasuo nodded already expecting those words then he advised the King as he started floating up in the air with his dark hair hiding the bright moon far behind him.

"I advise you to consume them both before we started else you won't have that great of a chance."

"No need for suc..." Uttered the King, however, He didn't have the chance to finish before...
