King of Swords 9-94
Chapter: 9
Yaun cried at first, for his family, but then the men, with their hyena faces and lolling tongues, would slap him until he stopped.
“Dead men have no families,” they said to him. They painted his skin with the burned ashes of his village and forbade him to wash. The sword that the star lord had given him was a rough tool, and heavy, far too large for his small frame. He couldn’t cry so he bit his tongue and tried to remember home, and his mother, but all he could think about was the raw smell of blood.
This is abaddon version of Fortnites death ring, next page allison will build a wall and 360 no scope headshot the big buffy diamond ki rata dude
Then hit the default dance
Mmm-mmmm! Cranking those 90’s!
The Slayer of Eriban is actually from 1985, and most likely the inspiration here.
How do you feel knowing you were cringe four years later
cringe and fortnitepilled
If our dear girl is indeed one with Gog-Agog, this feels like something Gog-Agog would come up with to save her investment in The Rising King…
Or maybe it’s the plan that Allison keeps remarking “not enough time/need more time” over
That looks suspiciously like an intervention on Solomon’s part…..
Nah, Allison recruited some demon muscle between rounds.
You mean you didn’t recognize Princess Mamoru Moonshine Jagermeister Jack Jack Daniels Timothy Tim Bill Freddy Mercury Blueberry Luna, Esquire?
I suspect they were referring to how Allison’s most immediate threat was just conveniently dropped into a pit of fire.
Yeah, that’s what I was referring to. Seemed awfully convenient and since Solomon himself is most likely controlling it…
Can’t tell whether it’s a set pattern or an attempt at looking random though.
The only observable pattern is that square “columns” still stand.
It has to be Solly doing this, he has complete control over the arena (just rearranged in a few minutes ago) and also we see him standing impassively behind the Gogs showing no surprise at all. Now Nyave and Princess mugging an usher – that seems definitely like a part of Allison’s plan!
god im disappointed in the community
how could no one say what im about to say?
VIBE CHECK
Actions speak louder, Guardian of the Exposition Fairy.
To be fair, most actions upon the wretched Path of Royalty could be preceded by “VIBE CHECK”. Hell, I’m fairly certain I know a verdant devil with the phrase sewn into his jacket.
Absence of such a reply gave me hope, and filled me with pride for this community. Now that hope is squandered, and pride is replaced with despicable blend of disgust and numb desperation – and you is the cause, o Hole of the Worm. Feel your own pride then, Crusher of Joy and Wit, for your ultimate triumph draws ever nearer with single each drop of Time ceasing to be.
Universum delenda est.
Once again, Nyave proves herself to be a badass. This must be Throne’s version of “get help.”
Nyave: “Well… you do seem like you are in dire need of leadership.”
A heavily concussed Eris Lo-Kai: “Why, thank you!”
I love you Abaddon and I think KillSixBillionDemons has some of the, if not the most, fascinating, prodigious and surreal setpieces of anything I’ve seen on the internet.
But what’s with the rushing? All this setup and always a rush to finish, was the same thing with the heist. Like 8 pages of setup and then the maze was less than that.
Same here.
Lastly, this “FFA” seems absurdly silly for any sort of competition. “Oh but the strongest will always win!” yeah if they have 360-vision not to mention the sinking platforms and whatnot. It all seems like a messy clusterfuck.
Excellent point. You could be the strongest fighter in the ring and you might end up being ganked by three people from multiple directions. Anyone who’s played any kind of free-for-all shooter knows how even the best players can lose from sheer misfortune, whether from spawns or ambushes or even random grenade tosses from halfway across the map.
That isn’t to say you can’t get good at it, it’s just a very different skillset from winning a 1 on 1 battle. It’d also make camping (aka hiding and waiting for everyone to kill each other) the most efficient strategy, which doesn’t seem in-line with the tournament’s stated purpose.
Of course, this is assuming the whole tournament isn’t an excuse for SD to crush all potential opposition under the guise of a legitimate tournament…
Which is not an assumption I would make.
Nobody would make that assumption. Assumptions about the Paternum are a Class Six offense.
Yes, that is a very bad offense.
I have to admit I hadn’t thought about the format of “set up a big plan, then stuff goes wrong and they all have to rush and fix it” as a tired formula, especially since it’s literally just been true of this chapter and the last one and none of the rest of KSBD.
As for your other point, allow me to mimic panel 4 just a bit:
“w-what’s happening now? This is a terrible way to determine which of the contestants is strongest!”
“That’s right, Onearmed Atlas, great observation. Very astute.”
No seriously, if that “sudden format change” move didn’t make it painfully obvious to everyone that something’s up with Solomon’s ulterior motives, this new literally-instant-kill obstacle should confirm it. This is just about as close as Solomon could POSSIBLY GET to canceling the entire tournament without actually canceling it. It is an extremely blatant attempt to skip to the end of the tournament, while still providing minimum entertainment value for his citizens and maintaining a very thin veil of fairness & legitimacy. Now the only thing left is WHY he would do such a – *side eyes Allison with her very visible key on the battlefield* Oh. Never mind then.
I think you hit that shit on the head, dawg!
Very astute. Solomon knew Allison would come, and I’m sure he always has a Plan B. We are still on Plan A.
We can’t tell for sure that it’s an instant kill obstacle, but that’s kind of moot anyway since it still takes whatever is standing on it out of the battle.
Though if it isn’t instant kill/incapacitate, I can see it not working too well against those with flight capability, and possibly those that are able to jump back onto the main platfom
Indeed.
Solomon might now show it on his face, but he’s been running scared ever since he saw Allison’s key.
Looks like Solomon just wants to make sure that Gog-Agog can’t mess with things at this point.
Nail bitting running around. Cunning is better than brute strengh at times
What cannot be gained by force must be taken by stealth.
“Jeez”? Where would Gog-Agog pick up such an exclamation? OK, let’s assume that somewhere across hundreds thousand worlds devoured.
Cunning plans over here, it’s nice. And OH YISUN THE ONGOING ADDITIONAL STORY INDEED
I thought the same thing – is there a Jeebus in this universe?
Jegus
Space troll clown Jegus.
Considering that everything has been translated by tiny blue devil juice ever since she ate one, it’s probably translating a similar sort of exclaimation into ‘jeeze’.
So a pitch invasion is in the offing? This fight just gets more interesting by the moment, given there’s suddenly rather less pitch to invade…
Hear the fall of feet below
the streets and wonder where they go.
It’s into tubes and then who knows?
Nice place Solomon runs here. Lawful Neutral I would say. A young woman in distress calls for help and the reaction of the official is: ‘You’re in trouble for loitering missy!’
The official does show a little concern and/or compassion after acting as his duty requires.
See how that’s rewarded. :p
I currently see three possible outcomes for this world:
1. 2 Michael succeeds (or rather, Allison lets him win) and Zaid gets installed as the new King, with 2 Michael as the power behind the throne. Not really good, considering how most Angels think about humans. The multiverse might become a lot like Rayuba actually: very peaceful, very repressive.
2. Jagganoth wins. Not good at all – multiversal peace, because he’s going to destroy it all.
3. Allison wins – somehow. But if she just replaces the Demiurges, how long until she becomes like them, only more powerful? More likely she will find a new way. Perhaps she will give the Key back to 1 Metatron? All this started when Zoss forced the names of God from him after all.
Of course, maybe Abaddon will end the story before any of these endings come about and leave us guessing…
I think you’ve forgotten about another possibility if Allison wins: she could follow the path of Zoss. She could find a worthy replacement and move on.
The stadiums look like there are built for hiding murders.
showcasing murders in the middle, hiding them in the stands
Yeah, but those are for hiding their murders, lurking in the murder/ambush zone without a permit is a class 4 infraction.
Oooh the field is thinning! Come on, White Chain, go! You can win! White Chain! It’s all riding on you! I can just taste the rotating palaces already!
Nyeve’s expression is just…
Too cold.
White gog ,best gog
I once met a burly fella, he weighed ’round 5000 pounds
He, too, used to hide in darkness or jump or loiter around
But he wasn’t caught by moving ground or law enforcement hounds
What took the strongman was the burning love that knows no bounds
His heart was stolen by the Red Art master Elle Lo Kell
The pretty witch who’s name was known down the last gate of hell
His muscle, grit and battle arts we’re no help ‘gainst her spell
May others learn from tales like this one of how great men fell
