99 Power of the Merger (2/2)
The large blade stabbed his neck, severing his head.
-----------------------------------
The red and grey sword were just about to reach the neck, but the young boy was never injured to begin with so he quickly took a step back and shot a fire and ice wave towards the swords, successfully blocking them .
Arnin saw the young boy dodge the attack and he sighed helplessly. Although his eyes and miniscule time mark were activated to the fullest, he knew that dodging would still be impossible.
He rushed towards the purple beam with no fear. Since he was going to face death, he might as well see if there was even a chance of survival. Running and dodging were impossible, so he could only attack.
A large, smoky white saber formed in his hand. The abilities of space, neutrality, blood, and extremities cloaked the saber. The saber began to exude an extremely tyrannical aura. Arnin, however, didn't stop there; A new purplish light wrapped the sword as well. It felt like the aura of… time.
---------------------------------------
Demon Lord Arnin brought out a black blade. The auras of death, darkness, space, and even bits of time, surrounded it.
”If I can't even take the final attack of a dead man, there is no need for me to continue to ruling my universe.” His angry howl spread across the empty, dark land. With his remaining hand grabbing the hilt, he raised the blade and swung down against the purple beams with full power.
--------------------------
Lifting his white saber covered in numerous strong auras, Arnin swung down at the incoming purple beam with full force. It was his final attack. There was a chance he could die from this, however there was also a small possibility of survival, albeit a very insignificant chance.
”AHH!” With a low roar, his blade came into contact with the purple beam. ”BREAK FOR ME YOU BASTARD!”
-----------------------------
”DIE!” Demon Lord Arnin's body was continuously being stabbed from all angles by the purple beams. Holes appeared on his chest, legs and even his last arm was on the verge of being ripped apart.
----------------------------
Arnin's body was lacerated by the residual energy from the purple beam. His attack, although insanely powerful, was still not enough compared to the purple light. ”ABSORB IT, YOU BASTARD!”
His white blade formed a small whirlpool that slowly absorbed the purple beam. The young boy saw this and his smile widened. ”Nice move, but that's not enough to stop my attack.” A sigh escaped his mouth as he walked away from the fight. ”Maybe you could have challenged most of the top ten, but you could not handle the people in the top three. There is a chance that my full powered attack is the only thing that could destroy them, but maybe not. I have yet to see their full power as well.”
Being in the middle of a life and death situation, Arnin couldn't bother with the young boy. He didn't care how strong the top three were. If he couldn't even handle this attack, then fighting others would be the last thing on his mind.
*SZZZ*
The beam began to sizzle and make sounds like a hissing snake being slowly burned. It was frightening. Most people watching the fight had already stepped around a hundred meters back as they couldn't handle the residual energy of the fight.
Sinfallel and Canae also watched the fight with their fists tightened, however both had different thoughts. The former was hoping for Arnin's death while the latter was hoping that Arnin would survive. Canae still held hatred for Arnin, but she knew that only by following him would there be a chance for her become much stronger and possibly bring her sister back.
”This fight is just too… terrifying!”
”Yeah, who knew that the Demonic Joker was actually this strong?'
”What the hell are you saying? Not the Demonic Joker, but who would have thought that Rank Eleven was this strong? His powers are comparable to the top three, maybe even more.”
People discussed heatedly. The news about the strengths of Rank Eleven and the Demonic Joker spread everywhere at an insane speed.
While this went on, the beam was slowly becoming weaker under Arnin's blade, however the price he was paying was just too high. He had already thought of releasing his Demon Lord powers, but now it was too late to do that. If he did, then death was certain. All the cells in his body were shaking, his tissues were torn, and there was even significant damage done to his organs. Just a tiny fraction of the Demon Lord power would instantly lay him to dust.
'Just a bit more. I can survive this if I can last just a bit more!' His whole body was covered in blood and there were terrifying wounds on his arms, legs, chest, and even face. His eyes were dull and the purple seemed to lessen.
”BREAK! BREAK! BREEEAAAKKK!” With a final push from his weapon, he created a small portal in front of his blade that decreased the beam's power, however the portal broke. His saber also began to dissipate.
The beam finally broke through, penetrating his chest directly.
*BLUERG*
His body flew in the air as it was sent flying back. A huge hole appeared right next to his heart, barely missing it. His eyes completely blackened and his face began to wither.
'In the past, I was able to survive the attack, but now, that may not be the case.' His voice disappeared from his mind as everything quieted.
The crowd watched the scene with their breaths held tightly in their chests. ”This demon might finally die.”
Canae began to worry as she also held her breath. Her eyes looked at Arnin as she and the others slowly moved towards his body after some hesitation.
