"AAAAH!"
Two Kushan guards are alerted of the two monsters present, being slain before either could stand a chance against Barnham and Skull Knight as Silat and his clan exited the room before Ganishka could approach them.
While Barnham was busy devouring the men guarding the vessel, and Kalki was attempting to contact Silat in order to understand who the Kushan really were as people, The Skull Knight pondered as to how he should properly disposed of the Man-Made Behelit.
Should he just spread it's liquids open and face whatever transmorphed creatures spawn from it? Did he have time to convince an apostle to work along with him instead of eating the flesh curtains? Would it be wise to banish this entire thing inside the Abyss, so no mortal could use it while ignoring collateral damage?
His time to think was too brief for him to make a decision, thanks to Ganishka's arrival, quickly electrocuting all inside as his mere presence was gigantic enough that his mere eye already towered over Barnham's entire figure.
"WHO DARES TO INTRUDE INSIDE MY LAIR!? I WILL NOT TOLERATE MEMBERS OF THE BAND OF THE FALCON TO USE DAIBA'S MASTERCRAFT!"
Ganishka is not afraid to kill his own army, reducing all present to ashes as the screams of the apostles stitched together were the only sound audible, making even The Skull Knight himself be slowed down in his movements.
Using the portals controllable in his sword, he attempted to strike the outside of the building where Ganishka was located at, but it was like handwaving away at the clouds. he could not find an effective way to strike at the cloud form of the Kushan Emperor that did him any damage.
Finally breaking free of the lightning strikes before he could increase the voltage, The Skull Knight jumped onto the windowsills before hesitating to strike Ganishka, noticing that Barnham was still alive.
Despite not feeling pain, that did not stop his body from contorting to the point of unwillingly being frozen solid. how could it be, that the undefeatable Barnham could be constricted by someone who was made of something intangible?
His burns were hardening his skin, all the liquid on his body was evaporating, the voltage would soon kill him for good, unless he took action.
"Do not mistake me for the weaklings you've fought in the past, for I will make sure that the name of Barnham The Great keeps you awake at night, as it echoes in your mind!" Barnham smirks before jumping onto the Behelit, gnawing at it's ropes at the vessel to destroy the Demon Womb.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU WORM!? QUIT EATING AWAY AT THE VESSEL!" Ganishka increased the power of his rays, to it's maximum strength, potentially damaging his own Daka spawner in order to prevent the bear from devouring it.
However, the apostle blood sent him into a frenzy, eating more and more, until he felt freer and freer from the emperor's grasp with every bite...
