1105 Tide 3 (1/2)
”Light Beam! Gather!”
Fiery Fear's Mech spread its four wings, with bright, red beams of light shooting out of every tip of its wings. The light beams were burning bright, bending as they were aimed toward him, forming a beautiful red Light Sphere.
The Light Sphere kept expanding. Soon enough, everything near the red beams of light had been dyed a shade of red that resembled the searing sun.
”Destruction Laser!”
As though it was being pulled by an unknown force, the Light Sphere suddenly jolted downward.
At the same time, the other Non-falling Levels were trying their best, unleashing all their powers. The bright light that exploded from the Mechs were highly concentrated, shooting different forms of colorful streams downward.
”It's useless.”
A white-robed man looked up at the Mechs in the sky as he walked out slowly from the villa.
As he spoke, a layer of translucent barrier starting forming in the air, surrounding the villa.
All the attacks that were launched disappeared the second they made contact with the invisible barrier, like pebbles sinking into the water.
”Attack!” A furious voice growled.
All the Mechs promptly increased the energy they released, horrifying streams of colorful, electric current-like lights continued to fall from the sky, crashing into the translucent screen before Garen.
However, Garen took no notice of these people and continued staring at the sky which was becoming a concentrated shade of a rainbow.
”It's coming…”
His stare was intense.
All of a sudden, a white Light Beam shot down from the sky.
Bang!
The light pillar landed not far away. It was at least a thousand meters wide, as though something was hidden inside the Light Beam.
What followed the Light Beam were actual halos the colors of a rainbow.
The air began to stir as a transparent, vortex-like airstream appeared, while an ear-piercing horn sound rang from the sky.
The entire forest was instantly set on fire, and black clouds swarmed above the sky. The black clouds were pushed to two sides by the white light pillar and the rainbow light, yet it did not want to join back together and cover the sky.
White snowflakes danced across the air, spinning around the white column of light just like streams of rivulets.
The ground shook once again.
”It's really coming this time!”
Garen held his right arm out, his palms curved, as though he was grabbing on to the white light pillar.
”Star Core Resonance…”
As he mumbled in a hushed tone, streaks of red light began appearing on the ground below Garen's feet; they quickly gathered like streams of water in Garen's palms.
The streaks of red light were getting more concentrated as the number of streaks increased.
”He's extracting the Star Core's powers! Stop him!” Fiery Fear was considered well-experienced and knowledgeable since he knew what was happening and started panicking.
Soon enough, all the Non-falling Levels had a great increase in their powers. However, they noticed that their attacks were harmless to the opponent's defensive energy field which served as a barrier.
Disappointment crept onto some of the Non-falling Levels' faces.
Although the Mechs were glamorous and looked magnificent, they were all useless to Garen at this point. Their powers were like absorbed by an endless hole, vanishing instantly as they made contact with the barrier.
The snow was getting heavier and a light fog was cast upon both the sky and the earth. Everything could not be seen anymore, except the white column of light that was standing tall between heaven and earth.
A layer of frost started creeping up Garen's body, forming a Scarlet Snow Ice Armor while a pair of gigantic, long ice wings slowly condensed to form behind his back.
All of a sudden, Garen took a step forward.
”True form, reveal!”
He suddenly extended both arms like he was embracing the sky.

In space
The whole surface of the Mother Planet was suddenly covered by an abundant of black speckles.
At this very moment, the speckles were moving about swiftly as though they were alive, being pulled toward each other and finally forming a black dot.
In a flash, the black dot formed a huge Peacock's eyeball. It stuck its skull out from underneath the ground, its entire body was semitransparent just like Mother Planet's soul. Slowly, the enormous White Peacock emerged from Mother Planet, its massive body almost covering half of Mother Planet already.
Growl!
The White Peacock growled at somewhere deep in space where the rainbow-like lights were shining.
It was as though there was a reaction, the space rainbow lights, which were originally drifting along the white light pillar toward Mother Planet, suddenly accelerated.
Countless streaks of rainbow streams, that were way bigger than Mother Planet, started surging toward the white light pillar.
Boom!
The rainbow tide slammed against the surface of Mother Planet, completely drowning the White Peacock.
********************
Among the White Lights, Clint and the others were staring wide-eyed at Mother Planet, which was getting nearer and nearer, and the massive peacock above.
”There, there… What a huge peacock! Since when did Mother Planet have such a creepy creature?” Clint gulped as he felt his body tingled.
”How bold!” Red Moon was the first one to see right through everything, ”Protecting Mother Planet by itself, isn't it afraid that the energy tide would wipe out its Willpower?” He exclaimed.
It should be noted that the size of an energy tide would vary from small ones to huge ones, and this time around, its scale should exceed hundreds of light years. Merely as big as a small toy ball in a big tide, the Mother Planet was completely unnoticeable. A tide like this had a power that could not be simply defended against by one simple planet.
”Be prepared, we'll be landing soon!” Little did Red Moon realize that this tide would not actually involve Mother Planet, but he and his men provoked this happening with their Light Beam.
Red Moon's red Mech was launched toward Mother Planet along with the streak of white light, stumbling among the countless rainbow streams.
