King of Swords 10-133
Chapter: 10
“The Celestial sovereign has a great need of many satrapies, vassals, and governors, far more than his (admittedly extensive) bloodline could ever handle on its own. So far out of the province of familial bonds he has turned to the only other bond he seems to find reliable: that of violent bloodshed.”

i fully expect there to be like three people who hang back and are drinking tea when all the dust settles
Purification in progress…
My Stars, he has over a dozen of Add-Ons!
Great. Now I can only imagine the Batter as the original wielder of Solomon’s key. Are you happy now? Do you want some bottled smoke?
Now that You mention it Salami Dave reminds me of Enoch. Tyrants both of them. Yet so sure of justness of their rule
He who drinks oceans of blood shall never cease bleeding from the mouth
My dentist said the same thing about he who never flosses enough.
Looks like Salami is about to preform the ultimate root canal.
I’m assuming Solomon has the control to not make those few seated contestants collateral damage.
Hmmm, I fear for them.
lol he’s gonna massacre the hell outta them then slip his arms back into the arm rings before they touch the ground
AND THAT WILL BE GLORYFUL AND BADASS!!
Solomon David has made one fateful mistake in this tournament.
The golden rings are up.
I have no doubt that in a moment or two he shall be scratched by a hurtling hedgehog.
Even I fear the supersonic ring beast! The rings give it life.
The audacity of that street lamp with a shovel.
Catfishface knows what’s up.
A king and his shirt are easily parted.
I spy TOE from rice boy!
I was going to say exactly the same, but chose to check the comments before in case someone else had spotted him. It is, indeed, The One Electric.
And now it comes to blood and mayhem.
Shit like this don’t happen on a farm. Ee-nope.
S’why I stay on mine. Ee-yup.
Is that a xenomorph in the back on the second panel?
Albino Alien Alert!
The ring.
The rending.
Royalty is a continuous cutting motion. Who ever can halt its terrible trajection?
less “reach heaven through violence”
more “dehumanize yourself and face to bloodshed”
Bless that little mantis person who’s like “nah imma just sheathe my sword and take a seat”
The person in robes with a white triangle on ers hat appears to be running away. Understandable and better than attacking SD, but not the same as staying still. So we’ll see how that comes out.
Ki Rata should never have been allowed to exist. It is too violent an art for mortals to possess, for all it takes is a single practitioner willing and able to use it to wipe out all those who cannot.
Aah! Big monkey outta nowhere!
So I see a blond fellow and the praying mantis (thri-kreen? skree?) appear to be standing down.
That’s … that’s a good call.
As is the woman wielding the white ring. I count 3 wise beings, one coward fleeing (unable to parse strict instructions), and the rest fools rushing in where soon an angel will fear to tread.
There are three who are wise, two cowards, and one who may be wise or coward.
As for fools, they’re a dime a dozen, and this page cost ten cents.
Some of Allison’s 108 followers were in the tournament; some, presumably, are still in. I wonder how many of them will go for Solomon and how many will sit it out.
Especially our beloved Gun Witch, Layla Brimstone! She and Eris Lo-Kai, the vatra were may favourites, and while the vatra suffered ignominious defeat at the (at the time) paralyzed hads of our Conquering Queen, Layla may still be in the ring. Hopefully she’ll have the common sense to stay where she is. Hopefully, Golden Battle Baby will do the same.
This is it guys! He dropped all of his rings! The next hit will kill him!
Oh no! He’s hot too!

All together na – iiiiiif tha’s happy and tha knows it clap tha hands!..
“hold my earrings”
