Chapter 7 - Heaven - Slaughtering Sword (2/2)

This was my chance, I used the remaining physical strength I had and jumped off, as I rose high into the air I equipped my Nightwing Blade again and poured my magic into it, as it hummed with black light I struck at one of the tentacles of the Octopus, this time my sword attack went straight through and cut the entire tentacle off.

As I crashed onto the ground below I was directly below the Kraken with his huge tentacles all around me, my body was healed halfway through but I only had 5000 mana left and I was still under the effect of the mana drain poison.

The Kranen released a concentrated and strong poison magic attack and it came straight towards me, if I use the Beam of Holy Destruction here the monster would be still alive even though I would counter his attack , I need to do something else, something that doesn't completely destroy his attack but manages to counter it somehow and consumes less mana.

I straightened my index finger and middle finger and concentrated my Holy Destruction Magic on just those two fingers, as I raised the fingers I imagined a sword made of pure destruction. As the magic in my hand responded with my will it started condensing into the form a long sword that looked illusory while at the same solid.

As the world around me went still, and Princess Charlotte who got ready to save me, I raised my hand, with my broken body and half remaining mana.

The surrounding lights started flickering and the heaven and earth were shaking. I combined the limited knowledge I had of sword arts that I learned during this fight and everything I knew about destruction into this illusory sword strike.

The purple light of destruction on the illusory sword started flickering and turned into a blood red sword radiance, at that moment, the entire world trembled, the heavens and earth shook and the seven seas went into turmoil. At the moment I didn't realize it, after all, it wasn't anything that strong or terrifying in terms of pure power but without realizing I had given birth to something that was not terrifying in raw power at the moment but something with a concept that went against the natural law, against the heavens, it was as if the universe recognized this and was terrified and tried to stop the birth of such a concept.

But it was too late, with just a swipe of my fingers , the illusory sword radiance burst forth and in a straight arc went straight towards the terrifying magical attack of the Kraken , as it touched the greenish-red attack of the Kraken it sliced it in half and the magical attack deflected and went towards my sides , but the blood-red sword radiance did not stop and went straight through and cut off the two tentacles of the Kraken that formed this magical attack clean in half.

The Kraken with only two remaining tentacles could not hold its weight and fell with a loud boom, the explosion blew me away.

As I caught my breath, after bȧrėly surviving that situation, I heard a notification.

*ting*

*You have created an unidentified skill/magic: unnamed | Mana cost - 2500 mana for every strike*

*System will categorize this separately*

In another unknown location, a purple-robed and purple-haired man was seated in a lotus position floating in the void, at this moment he suddenly opened his eyes.

”Haha, such a terrifying sword mind. As expected of my successor, this will make all those old gods come out of hiding, how long has it been since someone caused such an effect in the universe.” the man said with a smile gazing in the distance.

Back to the Kraken,

What was that feeling, I thought as I stared at my hands, it felt like the entire universe was against me in that one moment. I shrugged off my thoughts and focused on the current situation.

This is it, I need to strike it now.

Princess Charlotte who was about to strike and save me just stood dazed, for the first time since I was here she seemed genuinely shocked. She stood back and watched me continue.

I shall name this sword the Heaven - Slaughtering Sword.

I got up and rushed towards the writhing Kraken, even though it was immobilized it was still terrifying and I could feel the huge undulations of its power, the effect of Destruction God's Intimidation was fading and he was gaining his levels back, I only have enough mana for one sword strike.

I jumped high into the air and straightened my index and middle finger and unleashed the Heaven - Slaughtering Sword once again, as it went straight towards the head of the Kraken, it could do nothing but await its doom. With a sharp shrill sound, the sword cut through space and sliced the Kraken's head in half, finally killing him.

As I fell down after that attack, I had no mana left and was about to crash when Princess Charlotte came underneath me and caught me in her hands as I fell down.

Though I was grateful for not crashing into the ground, being princess-carried by a Princess was a weird feeling.
