Taskar chose to flee. He could've chosen to stop Ning's water from drowning him in his lungs, but the water was already in there. Stopping him from making more would still drown him with what had already appeared.
So, getting away and saving himself was the proper way.
Thus, he crawled forward and jumped into the portal. When he appeared on the other side, he started coughing violently, even using Aether to force out the water in his lungs.
He coughed and coughed and coughed. Finally, after almost all the water in his lungs was gone, he opened his eyes, and saw a pair of shoes completely sprayed with his coughed out water.
The right foot moved and before he could prepare himself, it struck his face, sending him hurling away.
Taskar felt his face burn with pain and he splashed in so water. He had appeared on the riverbank of one of the locations he had been to during the last 3 days and rembered it well enough to co here.
Now, he was drowning in that sa river.
Ning looked with a serious face and saw a section of the river sink a little before jumping back to level, and even spraying a bit of water.
He knew Taskar had opened a portal to another location. With a single thought sent to his system, Ning teleported again.
When he reappeared, he stepped on wet carpet, likely water from the river that Taskar had pulled through the river.
When he looked in front of him, he could see his horrified look of Taskar. When Ning saw this, he understood.
This man was a coward. He was soone who used his strength to fight the weak, and whenever anyone remote strong showed up, he ran away.
That was why he had no experience in fighting at all. Ning shook his head and his eyes shifted from Taskar to the other people in the white room.
Ning saw almost a dozen different n and won standing around what looked like a eting of so sort.
He was curious now. Where exactly was he?
"Who are you?" soone shouted.
"Are you okay, brother Taskar?"
"How did this man appear out of nowhere?"
The n and won in the room imdiately started speaking and shouting. So of them pulled out guns in defense, while so were getting their Aether ready.
Ning was sure that had he worn the battle force uniform, they would have mowed him down right now.
"What are you waiting for? Kill him!" Taskar said.
'System, is anyone here possibly innoce—'
Before Ning could finish asking questions, attacks of many kinds appeared from the n and won who were in a circle.
So used guns, while so threw fire at him. So tried to spear him through the heart with a tal rod, while so tried to create gravity to rip his body apart.
Ning's body, which was protected with Enchantnt, a layer of Aether, and finally reverse gravity working like a force field, could not be touched by any attacks at all.
Ning gave an angry chuckle. "I figured."
He put out his hands in front of him as everyone continued attacking, and looked towards Taskar with what he assud was an evil grin and snapped.
POP!
Like a balloon filled to the brim with water and could not hold itself anymore, one of the n amongst the dozen or so popped into a haze of bloody gore.
Chunks of at and sprays of blood landed on everyone around them who looked at the dead n with a horrified look.
They didn't have to work too hard to look at him for he was everywhere.
In the white room that was bloody, only Ning stood with not a single drop of blood on him.
Then, he snapped again.
POP! POP! POP!
One after another, n and won alike burst like balloons leaving sprays of red around the room.
By the ti Ning was done, not a single hint of white remained in the originally colorless room.
Taskar, who was completely drenched in blood looked with nothing but shock at Ning. He had co here to ask for help from his fellow brother and sisters who he had worked with.
But now, he realized he had only brought death to them.
Trembling hands tried to help him move back, but the slipperiness of the hot blood made it impossible.
"It's your turn now, I guess," Ning said and walked forward. As he stepped, the blood and bones parted themselves to reveal the white marble that was originally there.
Even then, he didn't completely step on the ground and hovered slightly on top with his reverse gravity.
"Don't kill !" Taskar started shouting.
Ning simply shook his head. "If you know you are going to die, just shut up and let be done with it," he said.
His single hand moved forward, and Taskar feared a snap, but Ning wasn't going to give him such an easy death.
No, instead, water accumulated around Taskar, slowly picking him up. Taskar tried to move out of the bubble of water, but Ning's Aether forced him there.
Even when he tried to use his own Aether, Ning's usage of it was far better and managed to keep Taskar there with no chance of escape.
Then ca the torture.
Taskar was already having trouble breathing, but then he felt the temperature of the water increase.
With fear in his eyes, he tried to open a portal, but with a single gesture, Ning canceled the portal.
Taskar put his hands on his mouth to not let himself breathe in the water, but the water was getting so hot that it beca uncomfortable.
At so point, the water started boiling, and Taskar enforced his body to survive it.
For minutes on end, Ning kept Taskar floating in a ball of boiling water until he was forced to swallow the boiling water and burn his body from the inside out.
Ning only let the man drop to the ground once he was dead.
