The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker

Chapter 94: Burning in a stake and reinforcement

Kayn surveys his eyes on his surrounding to see if he can use anything to cause some disadvantage to Adolfo.

Stones.

Vines.

Trees…

There are plenty of trees around them, but he knows for certain that Adolfo could just smash them into pieces if ever they start causing trouble for him.

However, he quickly remembered the mini-fortress strategy of those two Mages and Priest.

"What if I cut those trees, let Adolfo smash them into pieces, and using those broken pieces, I will then ask Kimberly to burn them for me?" Kayn turns to look at Natas.

Natas started muttering, "By burning his skin, it would be easier to damage them. And if it's easier to damage them, the cuts would become deep, and the deeper the cut, the more blood would ooze out of Adolfo's body. Let's do that!"

Never in his life did he expect that he'd be able to find a lot of uses with trees when it comes to combat. Previously, it was with the Flame Gorilla and the other monsters chasing after him. And now, it would be Adolfo.

With this, he'd definitely be able to make a research paper about the extent of the trees' practical uses in battle.

Kayn secretly slips to the forest behind Adolfo.

Along the way, he made sure to keep watch where Adolfo is going so that he can make sure to hide from his eyesight. After all, he is behind the latter, so it would be easier for him to just turn around and attack him. He might be able to run away, but there's no telling if he'd be able to get to safety.

Needless to say, he wasn't planning on cutting trees from behind, he was only making his way to the other side. As for why he didn't sneak to where Kimberly and Cedrick are hiding, that's because it would waste a lot of time as it's considerably far from where he's at. In addition to that, Adolfo might get suspicious of him.

Not long after, Kayn was finally on the other side.

"The problem though, is how to make sure that it wouldn't cause harm to Gilbert and the others instead?" Kayn asked Natas.

"We could just burn it later on, right?"

"But we'll have to make sure that Adolfo won't escape from the trap before we start burning it,"

"Adolfo's mobility is not really something you should be worried about. Even if you don't inform Gilbert and the others, they'd still be able to get out in time, while Adolfo would have to remain in the fire for some time before being able to escape,"

"I suggest that we make some patches from there, there, there, and other places you deemed Adolfo would be going if we start burning one of those patches,"

"By doing so, we can deal more damage to him much more effectively,"

In other words, they will be increasing the range of the fire, but at the same time, not having the fire in one single area only.

"Moreover, those empty spaces in between each of the patches could serve as buffer points for Gilbert and the others to escape and probably change direction,"

"If we make it much smaller, wouldn't it be more effective?"

"Not necessarily, since Adolfo could fling the trees to the side if they are only in small quantity,"

"Indeed," Kayn nodded his head in agreement.

There should be a considerable number of them so that even if Adolfo tries to fling them away, it wouldn't get the fire off of him. Instead, it would just become the fuel to light the nearby patches.

"Let's do it!"

Without further ado, Kayn started chopping up trees using the Molten Ice Sword. Every time he cuts, he made sure that the trajectory when it falls would go to where Adolfo is standing so that the latter would smash the tree into pieces.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

"Was the other guy who disappeared a lumberjack or something?" Adolfo felt quite amused at the falling trees. "Or is this his way of distracting me? If it is, it's slightly effective, I admit that,"

"Any help is much appreciated," Friedrich kicked off toward Adolfo.

Clang!

"As long as I have a shield, your sword wouldn't work on me anymore," After receiving a series of crazy slashes from Friedrich before, Adolfo made sure to use his shield properly this time around.

"It's a distraction for," Friedrich pointed toward the falling tree.

Bang!

The tree landed exactly on top of Adolfo's head.

Even though the tree isn't as heavy compared to Adolfo. But because of its speed during the freefall, it causes him to get slightly dizzy upon hitting his head.

"Or we could do it like that too," Natas chuckled as he saw Adolfo holding his head out of dizziness.

"That was just a lucky fall," Kayn smiled. But he quickly resumed chopping more trees.

Learning from the last time, Adolfo made sure to smash the falling trees into pieces before they could reach him this time.

"We could use more patches over there. And make sure not to leave that spot open," Natas started pointing at locations where there were still insufficient pieces of wood. He also pointed at the location where he noticed Adolfo stepping more than two times as he can already guess that the latter would be moving there once they start burning the pieces of wood around.

Quite coincidentally, Kimberly is taking advantage of the cover provided by the pieces of wood to make her vines trap Adolfo.

"These trees are slowly getting annoying," Adolfo pulled a vine out from his body. Because he wasn't able to see it coming, he was wounded several times before getting out of the trap.

Adolfo looked at where the last tree had come from in hopes of finding Kayn. But to his disappointment, the latter seems to move like an assassin because he wasn't able to see even a silhouette of him in one of the trees.

He had noticed Kayn moving like an assassin before. But a dagger couldn't possibly cut trees consequently and that easily. So, the latter should be a knight, because only a weapon like a sword or an axe could cut a tree.

"Because of the length of a sword, it would be easier to notice it once he tries to swing it," Adolfo still hasn't given up on finding Kayn. On his right hand, he clenched some wooden pieces to throw in Kayn's direction once he spots him.

Gilbert and the others understood what Adolfo intended to do after seeing the latter stop fighting against them.

"Make sure that he doesn't get Kayn!"

"Focus on me, you damn fatty!"

"Watch out, piggy!"

Boom!

Adolfo retreated a few meters after getting smashed with a shield by Roshan.

Receiving a shield bash was more than enough for Adolfo to redirect his attention back to Gilbert and the others again.

"I am getting annoyed by this!" Adolfo threw the wooden pieces in his hand toward Gilbert and Friedrich that are currently charging toward him.please visit

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Gilbert and Friedrich were instantly halted as they started defending themselves from the wooden pieces coming in their direction.

These wooden pieces would seriously not have been a problem for them if it wasn't for the fact that the person who picked them up had such a huge hand. Because of that, the wooden pieces that are thrown at them were considerably huge in size and longer in length.

With no other choice, Gilbert and Friedrich jumped to the side in order to hide.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, a light full of vitality covered Gilbert and Friedrich's bodies, which instantly healed all their wounds.

"You had a healer all this time?!" Adolfo was shocked. "I need to get out of here!"

Knowing now that there is a healer with them, Adolfo doesn't feel confident anymore in defeating Gilbert and the others. That's because a healer could revitalize and heal their wounds at any time, thus making all of his efforts useless.

Unfortunately for Adolfo, that isn't going to be easy.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Before Adolfo could plan an escape route, fireballs started raining up above his head.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The fireballs instantly lit up the wooden pieces on the ground around him.

Whoosh!

The wooden pieces straight away began lighting up in fire one by one. Shortly after, a huge fire erupted that consumed the body of Adolfo.

"Arghhh!"

A loud scream of pain echoed as Adolfo's body started burning.

Just when Adolfo tried to escape, numerous vines started crawling all over his body and tangling him to prevent him from escaping. A huge stone also landed on both of his feet from above, which instantly injured his body.

If this was before, it wouldn't have been easy to injure him. But because his feet were the first ones that got burned by the fire, thus the fat was no longer as resistant as before.

Just like what Kayn and Natas expected, Adolfo started flinging the wooden pieces to the side in hopes of getting rid of the fire. This was clearly his last-ditch effort to try and save himself.

However, to Adolfo's disappointment, those burning pieces only lit up the nearby patches of wooden pieces. As a result, it made the fire hotter and the oxygen around him started getting consumed at a much faster rate, thus making breathing very difficult.

"Holy shit!" Gilbert was shocked beyond belief while watching Adolfo getting burned alive.

"Let's get out of here!" Roshan carried Friedrich who had one of his feet injured by the wooden pieces that Adolfo had thrown at them before quickly running away along with Gilbert.

Gilbert and the others soon arrived where Kayn, Kimberly, and Cedrick are on standby.

"Was it you who thought of this idea?" Friedrich looked at Kayn.

"Totally him," Kimberly was the one who confirmed.

"I simply copied their strategy,"

"So, what is the next part of this plan?" Gilbert felt excited about what they are going to do next.

"You were supposed to finish him off, but I guess that's no longer necessary," Kayn watches Adolfo who is now kneeling on the ground as a sign of giving up and accepting his fate while slowly getting burned by the flames around him. "My plan turned out better than I expected,"

"How cruel," Roshan can't help but mutter.

"There's no such thing as cruel in war. If we had done nothing, they would have done the same as what we did to the people of the Green Horn Village,"

"I know. But it is still not satisfying to watch someone getting burned alive,"

"That's the fate of people who have joined the Assembly of Freedom. Anyways, let's go to the next target. I am guessing that he should be somewhere close right now,"

"No need, we've already taken care of him,"

All of a sudden, a voice was heard behind them.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The head of Lotte and his headless body dropped to the ground in front of Kayn and the others as two assassins followed afterward.

One of them was a woman, while the other was a man.

"Natasha, Jackson, glad that you two had made it in time,"

"We came quickly after getting notified by Old Chief George," Natasha nodded her head at Friedrich in greeting.

"How's our little brother doing?" Jackson looked at Gilbert.

"Already made more contributions than you two combined together," Gilbert proudly responded.

"That's good to hear," Natasha smiled at Gilbert as if like an older sister being pleased with what her little brother achieved.

"Who's the next target after Lotte and Adolfo?"

"It depends on who's nearby,"

"We've spotted Margie and Rose along the way here,"

"Then I guess they are our next target. Let's quickly depart!"

"Do we have to clean up the mess here?" Cedrick can't help asking in concern.

"They've probably noticed already because of the fire we've started,"

"I guess so,"

With that being said, Kayn and the others immediately left to go for their next target.
