99 Power of the Merger (1/2)
Arnin's face was pale and his hair was erect as he saw the purple sphere begin to form in the young boy's hand. The air began to fluctuate as if panicking at the merging of fire and ice.
'This can't go on. I have to do something. Maybe I can use…” Arnin thought of an idea which could possibly save him, but there was a high chance that it would recoil and cause him some damage as well.
His Runic Eyes seemed to have an ability related to time the last time he used them. He could slow everything around him, making him seem extremely fast. It was a very helpful move, but last time used it, his body was seriously damaged. It was also extremely painful, unbearable to even him.
'It is the only chance I have. If I can mix the eyes with the Space mark that I created, then it will be much more helpful. Even the Time mark which I've barely begun to work on might be somewhat helpful in this situation.' His space mark was created very early on since space was very easy to comprehend for him, plus it was much easier to detect than time. The time mark on the other hand was very miniscule. It had very little essence and was almost nonexistent since it was one of the hardest elements to master, if not the hardest.
If he could combine his Runic eyes with the two marks, there was a chance for him to create the never before seen spacetime effect that ruled the natural world but simultaneouslydefied the very essence of nature.
He could survive the attack if he was successful. Although ice and fire combined was said to be equal to spacetime since both of them defied the natural laws, Arnin still felt that spacetime had a certain level of superiority when compared to the former. He could create a tear in space, trapping the attack, and then use time to revert the power to a state where it never occured or speed time and make it seem as if the essence in the attack was used up.
The purple sphere in the boy's hand continued to form. It grew larger and larger and the power contained in it didn't seem to grow, however the feeling of fear was skyrocketing in the hearts of everyone watching the scene.
Suddenly, the large sphere disappeared. Arnin's eyes narrowed and his heartbeat quickened. It had not actually vanished, rather it was condensed to an insane degree, becoming as small as ones fingernail. The power of the condensation was almost as frightening as his own Demon Lord power.
His thoughts began to turn as he thought back to the fight he had with the first ice and fire user.
----------------------------------------
”Arnin, you may be strong, but your power is still not as strong as mine. The only advantage you have is your cultivation. If not for that, then there would have been no way you could survive this far.” An old voice sounded in the middle of space. His hair was half blue and half red with a thin purple line in the middle. He had scarlet and sapphire pupils that were sharp like blades.
”Whether my cultivation is higher than yours or lower is not a concern to me. Killing you is more important. I have ruled with the thought process that the end is all that matters, not the means to reach that end. To reach my goals and kill those I wish to kill, I don't care about how much stronger or weaker I am. I shall achieve what I want without any hesitation.” A deep voice tinged with coldness came out the mouth of a three horned demon who stood loftily in front of a large black hole. His ashen grey skin was covered in cuts and scrapes, and one of his arms was missing.
The old man stared at Demon Lord Arnin with hatred. ”How do you feel being attacked by someone you considered only an ant? If you had not slaughtered and tortured my family, forced my sister, mother, and every other woman in my home planet to become your sex slaves, and used my siblings, who were only children at the time, for your wicked experiments, then this day would have never come. This is what you sought, Demon Lord. Your death is inevitable.” Unshed tears filled the old man's eyes as he looked angrily at the demon in front of him.
A small smirk appeared on Arnin's face as he looked at the old man. ”Death? Do you really think that I will be the one to die here? For hundreds of millions of years, I have fought foes with much greater strength than myself. I have faced death so many times that death itself finds it difficult to come to me. Your family is only part of the many that I have slaughtered, don't expect me to remember every trash planet that I have destroyed. You can come and look at the torture chambers or my servant's bedrooms to see if your mother and sister are still alive. Haha!”
”AH! YOU BASTARD!” Multiple needle sized balls appeared around the old man as they turned into beams and shot towards the great Demon Lord Arnin.
----------------------------------------------------------
”Take this!” The young boy's face was a little pale as blood seeped from his mouth, however the smile didn't disappear. The purple nail sized ball erupted with strength and a purple beam shot towards Arnin.
Seeing the light, Arnin activated his Runic Eyes, space mark, and time mark.
-------------------------------------
”COME!” Demon Lord Arnin activated his power over space and created slits everywhere to devour the beams.
-------------------------------
Arnin created a small space tear with his limited powers, hoping to lessen the power or even consume the purple beam. Just as the purple beam entered the beam…
--------------------------
*BOOM SZZZZ*
The purple beams destroyed the space tears in almost an instant. They continued to rush towards Arnin with speed almost untraceable.
--------------------------
A cold light beamed in Arnin's eyes when he saw his destroyed space slit. The time power activated around the beam, slowing it down greatly, however it was still at almost lightening speed. Blood sprayed from his mouth as tears of blood fell from his eyes.
--------------------------
With a quick wave of his hand, he pulled out a large sword. Opening up a portal bhind him and the old man, he stabbed back.
---------------------------
Seeing a grey flaming sword and a blood red sword appear behind him, the young boy was shocked.
”You….
------------------------
”... Bastard!”
*BOOM*
