49 IM finale (2/2)

”It's how you stay alive, bluffs work wonders in fights you know. The domain isn't entirly a bluff either, it allows me to see weaknesses of things easier.” Kyoki said retracting his domain.

”Go do Tengoku's trial. We'll help you comprehend the concept of space after it.” Kyoki said pointing at Tengoku.

”Now then Rei are you ready?” Tengoku asked as she walked over.

”Yeah.” Rei replied as Kyoki stood back.

”Mine is a lot easier since it is more self explanatory.

Kneel in awe, weakness revealed.

Power taken, mortal shell unveiled.

Shojun(Ascend) : Tengoku No Fuin(Seal of Heaven)!!”

Tengoku said as her domain spread outwards. Within the domain, Rei could see faint golden seals everywhere.

”Let me guess, your concept is seals.” Rei said stating the obvious.

”Yes, but this allows you to seal a persons power. The stronger your soul and will, the more you seal. The seal strength is also determined by difference in strength.” Tengoku explained as she retracted her domain.

”The two domains work wonders together.” Kyoki cut in.

”Now the best way to experience the concept is to feel it.” Kyoki suddenly opened a space ripple underneath Rei causing him to fall into the empty space.

”Shouldn't you tell him that time doesn't pass in there so he can spend more time to comprehend it.” Tengoku said looking at Kyoki.

”Na, this should give him more drive to comprehend the concept of space.” Kyoki said as he waited for Rei to come out of the independent space.

Rei didn't know how long had passed as he fell into the space. Time seems to be none existent as he floated in the space. Sending his haki outwards, Rei tried to find the boundary but couldn't find it. He started to get anxious as he wanted to go help Eve. He had to quickly comprehend space. Calming himself, Rei used all of his knowledge to perceive space. Every second could be used to further understand space.

Time passed in years as Rei continued to experience the concept of space.

'The quake fruit allows me to transfer the shocks through space, Unlimited Blade Works transports the noble phantasms from my inner space outwards...' Rei continued to think as his understanding of space deepened.

Rei soon felt like the space was like a grid, he could reach out and open a connection from one side to another. He could go back right now if he wanted to, but he stopped. Through his understanding, he knew that time didn't move in this space, and that his understanding wasn't deep enough to be used in combat.

Centuries passed as Rei understood deeper into the concept of space. Diving deeper, Rei started to touch on the threshold between concept and law. But Rei didn't notice as he continued to discover more on space as his delved deeper.

Millennials passed as Rei understood the law of space. Satisfied with his understanding, Rei stood up causing his bones to crack as he stayed still with out moving. Snapping his fingers he appeared beside Kyoki and Tengoku without them noticing.

”What's next.” Rei said startling the duo as he jumped into combat stances instantly. Seeing that it's Rei they calmed down.

”Damn...You only needed to comprehend concept but it seems like you've went and comprehended the law.” Kyoki marvelled at Rei's achievement.

”Of course, why would I waste an opportunity like this where time doesn't pass.” Rei said as he looked towards, Tengoku.

”Did you know that you have spent around 7300 years in there?” Kyoki reminded Rei.

”Doesn't matter, no time passed here after all.” Rei stated as he prepared to comprehend the concept of seals.

”The concept of seals isn't a lengthy process. I'll transfer my knowledge and the more you use the further comprehension you should get.” Tengoku said as she tapped his forehead giving him the knowledge.

”Now then, Rei I think you waited long enough to go help Eve.” Tengoku said as Rei gained the concept of seals.

Nodding Rei exited the area on his own and back into the real world.

”Say Tengoku, he really is a monster. He actually calmed himself for over 100,000 years to comprehend the law.” Kyoki suddenly said revealing the truth.

”He was only ment to comprehend as far as concept, but using his understanding he had modified the space unconsciously to hold him longer till he under stood the law of space.” Kyoki continued as he never imagined Rei to be this talented in the understanding of space.

Rei arrived back into his own body as he looked up and saw IM break out and grab Eve by the neck about to seal her.

Using space laws, Rei instantly appeared next to IM and hit him faster than he could react. Catching Eve, Rei looked at her with a longing look before saying.

”Did I make you wait for too long?”

”Hahaha....nope just in time.” She said as she smiled at him.

”Let me take care of him first before we talk ok?” Rei said as he let her down.

Using space laws, Rei doesn't need the wings to help him fly anymore.

”Unveil my dagger, blend in shadows.

Crescent moon shines, smile in slaughter.

Shojun : Gekko Karitoriki.”

Rei said as the domain spread out. Two black daggers appeared in Rei's hand as he could see a faint red dot moving around IM's body constantly.

'Is that why he doesn't die.” Rei thought.

”Kneel in awe, weakness revealed.

Power taken, mortal shell unveiled.

Shojun : Tengoku No Fuin!!” Rei said as he stacked his second domain onto his first domain.

”Speed seal, regeneration seal.” Rei applied two seals onto IM's body. Sweat could be seen on Rei's face as keeping up two domains were extremely stressful for him.

”I think we've let you live long enough now...”

Rei said as he appeared out of the shadow of IM. Using the speed seal to slow IM's reaction and the regeneration seal to slow the healing. Rei ripped out a portion of IM's body which held the red dot before using the dagger to pierce the core causing IM to suddenly spasm in pain.

”Don't get cocky....His most divine can kill you with a snap of his finger.....” IM said as his body broke into pieces which further disintegrated.

”Hmph, he better wipe his neck clean for me then.” Rei said as he retracted the two domains. He suddenly lost footing as he fell towards the earth.

'The strain of comprehending law was more than I thought.' Rei thought before passing out.
