She glared at Eric Stevens, who had ruined her wedding, like a goddess riding the waves.

Eric Stevens was startled. He quickly glanced at Ororo and Xu Fu, and said with a smile, "I heard you came here to form an alliance. If I become king, this alliance will remain in effect."

Arrogant and rude.

Before the battle even began, he had already adopted a posture of certain victory.

However, Xu Fu still saw his confidence.

Xu Fu replied calmly, "An alliance? Are you worthy of it?"

One of the main reasons they agreed to ally with T'Challa was Ororo's marriage to T'Challa, and his past sheltering of children from the X-Schools and his assistance to them during previous disasters targeting mutants.

As for Eric Stevens...

Xu Fu really didn't notice.

Although Eric Stevens was very resentful, he dared not show it.

Anyone who knows Xu Fu knows that this character is not to be trifled with and knows how terrifying Xu Fu is.

Forced into a smile, he turned to look at T'Challa, who had already taken the potion and had his superpowers removed from the heart-shaped herb, and gave a cold laugh.

"Is this your bride? She's beautiful. If I ever become king, I'll marry her, have her under my body, and have several children..."

"Shut up!"

Chara roared, glaring angrily at Eric Stevens.

He realized that his opponent was provoking him in an attempt to influence his decisions in the battle, but he still couldn't help but feel furious.

Eric Stevens smiled slightly when he saw Chara's expression.

The next second, the challenge began, and the two rushed towards each other simultaneously.

With a loud crash, the weapons collided.

With a short spear in one hand and a shield in the other, T'Challa delivered a fluid thrust, blocking both of Eric Stevens' weapons with his shield.

But a fierce glint flashed in Eric Stevens' eyes, and he slammed his weapon into T'Challa's head and neck with even greater speed.

Although T'Challa was furious, she had no intention of fighting to the death with her opponent and had no choice but to raise her shield to block the attack.

Seeing this, Eric Stevens's lips curled into a murderous smile, and his weapon rained down on T'Challa.

But Techar remained completely unfazed by the sturdy shields and weapons, the impenetrable defense.

For a moment, the sounds of clashing weapons echoed like rapid drumbeats.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed in T'Challa's hand, piercing through Eric Stevens's relentless attack and striking him squarely in the face.

Eric Stevens quickly dodged.

"Streaking!"

With a crisp sound, a bloody mark appeared on his face.

A flicker of hesitation crossed T'Challa's eyes. Instead of pressing his advantage, he sheathed his weapon and assumed a defensive stance.

Seeing this, Xu Fu sighed helplessly.

Chara is doomed to lose.

He left his hand to the enemy, but the enemy wanted to kill him; he simply missed the best opportunity to win.

Of course, after that jab, Eric Stephens looked like a madman fighting for his life, his posture becoming increasingly frantic, while Teixeira was on the defensive.

Seeing this, everyone except the people from the border tribe looked grim. As Ororo grew more and more nervous and things got worse, the entire sky was shrouded in dark clouds, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

"Oloro won't kill this guy with lightning."

Charles muttered to himself, gently tapping his temple, and then contacted Xu Fu.

"Dad, this is not right."

Xu Fu nodded almost imperceptibly: "T'Challa will lose."

"Can we help him?"

“This is a dueling ritual in Wakanda. Even if you help, T'Challa will refuse, and it might even damage your relationship.”

"Are we just going to stand by and watch him fall and be killed by the other side?"

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on 5.7."

Xu Fu said in a low voice.

Charles was relieved after hearing Xu Fu's words.

Just then, the crowd suddenly screamed.

Eric Stevens' weapon only shattered Chara's leg, causing him to stumble and lose his balance.

In such a fierce fight, losing balance means defeat.

Before T'Challa could regain his footing, a barrage of attacks came crashing down on him.

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

Shocked screams erupted as the sharp blade pierced T'Challa's abdomen.

At this moment, lightning began to rage within Aurora's emotions. Aurora flew upwards like a storm goddess, looking down at Eric Stevens from high above with an expression that said she would strike him dead if he dared to move.

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

Chapter 1285 Completely Confused

The other tribes, including T'Challa's mother and sister, were initially worried about T'Challa but did not intervene. However, Ororo's actions made them wary of Ororo and Xu Fu.

Their Wakanda tradition is to hold a ceremony to summon the king, and no third party is allowed to interfere.

Eric Stevens forced a stiff smile, turned to T'Challa kneeling on the ground, and said, "Oh, it's you! The King of Wakanda! Allowing a woman to participate in this sacred duel?"

T'Challa pressed his wound, pain etched on his face. He looked at Ororo and shook his head: "No."

"But!".

Ororo looked at T'Challa nervously, his eyes filled with worry.

“This is the rule of Wakanda.” T’Challa staggered to his feet and said firmly, “Don’t let me lose Wakanda’s pride and honor.”

His eyes met Ororo's, and a pleading glint flashed in his gaze.

Ororo bit her lip, utterly confused.

She could have easily taken care of Eric Stevens, but T'Challa's persistence put her in a difficult position.

She respects her lover, but she will also respect him if he might lose his life.

The scales in her heart slowly tipped towards her own hands.

Even if T'Challa argues with her or even breaks up with her because of this, she still wants him to live.

As she thought of this, the emptiness in her eyes vanished quickly, but just as she was about to wipe it away with her hand, Charles's voice rang in her mind.

"Don't be like that, Chara will be fine."

Upon hearing this, Ororo suddenly looked at Charles.

Charles nodded affirmatively.

Taking a deep breath, Ororo had no doubts, dissipated his power, and returned to his original position.

Seeing this, Eric Stevens sneered and whispered to T'Challa, "You've just lost your only chance to survive, my dear brother."

Before he finished speaking, he slashed T'Challa's wrist with his weapon, severing his hamstrings. As the weapon slipped forcefully from T'Challa's hand, he appeared behind T'Challa and pressed a dagger against T'Challa's neck.

Eric Stevens smiled and whispered something in T'Challa's ear.

"Ahhh!"

T'Challa shouted angrily.

With his roar, a fountain of blood appeared before everyone's eyes.

His neck was cut open.

Amid the grief-stricken shouts of the crowd, Eric Stevens obediently plunged the blade into T'Challa's heart once more, staggering violently and ending T'Challa's life.

Upon witnessing this scene, T'Challa's mother and sister nearly fainted, while Ororo stared anxiously at Charles.

Didn't you say you were fine?

Now that it has happened, it doesn't sound like nothing has happened...

Charles looked at Xu Fu with a twitching mouth: "Dad, you don't play this, do you?"

Xu Fu smiled and said, "Just wait and see."

Hearing this, Charles forced a smile and said to Ororo, "Nothing will happen, he said so."

Charles pointed at Xu Fu.

Ororo nodded weakly, but after glancing at Tchail's body, he turned and left him, flying towards Tchail's mother and sister, Suri.

Eric Stevens won't abandon T'Challa and her daughter after her death, but as long as Ororo is with them, no one will dare to harm them.
