"Call--"
Rudeus slowly exhaled a hot breath.
Feeling the surging power coursing through every meridian and blood vessel in my body, I unconsciously clenched my fists slowly.
In an instant, veins bulged and muscles tensed.
The simple act of clenching a fist caused ripples to appear in the surrounding space.
As if unable to withstand this force, it began to twist slightly.
He raised his head again, looking at Kishirika was still suspended high in the air, and a smile slowly appeared on his lips.
"Little sister~"
You flew too high!
The words had barely left his mouth.
The figure vanished suddenly.
It's not moving at high speed.
It's so fast that it's impossible for the eye to capture it, as if a frame has been forcibly deleted from the scene.
The next moment--
His figure had already appeared in front of Kishirika.
He arrived.
Punch out!
There were no fancy moves or complicated techniques.
It was just a simple, unadorned punch.
However, the moment that punch was thrown, everything around seemed to freeze.
The wind has stopped.
The sound disappeared.
Even time seemed to slow down at that moment.
Kishirika maintained the same expression as before.
Her eyes widened slightly, her pupils not even having a chance to focus on Rudeus.
Immediately afterwards--
BOOM!!!
The fist tore through the air, unleashing a deafening roar.
The heavy punch landed squarely on her abdomen.
The terrifying impact instantly pierced through her body.
Kishirika was as if he were being forcibly dragged by an invisible giant hand, transforming into a streak of light and shooting out.
Boom--!!
She crashed through the rock walls, eventually slamming heavily to the ground.
The earth and rocks exploded, smoke and dust billowed into the sky, and the earth trembled.
Until this moment.
Kishirika seemed to finally come to his senses.
She coughed up a mouthful of blood, and a flash of emerald green light suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Green magic quickly covered his entire body, repairing his injuries.
She stared intently at Rudeus in mid-air, a hint of shock appearing in her voice for the first time.
"You..."
Why did you suddenly become so strong?
"Why?"
Rudeus smiled calmly, not in a hurry to answer.
Instead, I had a renewed sense of my current state.
How to describe it...
Just one sentence--
The blue stripes are dancing.
That's right.
Maintaining seven Emperor Rank amplification spells simultaneously has resulted in an almost outrageous consumption of mana.
Even with its near-infinite regenerative abilities, it can only barely maintain balance now.
In his current state, he has almost no energy left to cast large-scale spells.
Otherwise, if not properly controlled...
The mana regeneration rate was slightly slower, just a moment.
This could lead to a true depletion of magical power.
For everyone in this world, running out of magic means death.
Because their bodies are maintained by magic.
heart.
Lungs.
Meridians.
Even every single cell.
They have all been completely integrated into the magic system.
As long as the magic power within the body reaches zero.
Even if it's only for a fleeting moment.
The body could very well stop functioning completely.
That level of danger...
It far exceeds cardiac arrest.
Bringing his thoughts back to Rudeus, he looked at Kishirika again and spoke slowly.
"The power of God--"
"No explanation needed."
Before the words had even finished...
boom!
The air beneath my feet suddenly exploded.
His figure transformed into a golden streak of light and shot out once more.
Kishirika's expression changed drastically, and he no longer dared to underestimate him in the slightest.
She clenched her fists tightly.
Crimson magical light rapidly condensed, and two energy swords reappeared in his palm.
The next moment.
She charged straight at him!
The wind howled from the punch!
Swords flashed!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two figures clashed and crossed paths repeatedly.
Each clash unleashed a terrifying impact capable of shattering mountains.
Inside the Emperor Rank Sealing Barrier.
The space was violently shaking.
Fine cracks kept appearing, only to be quickly repaired.
It was as if the entire space was groaning under the unbearable strain of their battle.
Kishirika gritted his teeth.
The weapon in her hand kept changing.
Long spear!
javelin!
Giant axe!
Heavy hammer!
Crimson energy flowed continuously between her hands, each change signifying a completely new attack method.
However.
even so.
It still couldn't truly hurt Rudeus.
Occasionally, an attack would break through the defenses, leaving a wound on the opponent.
The next second.
A green light quickly appeared.
His injuries healed completely in an instant.
On the contrary, the vast magical power that Kishirika had previously absorbed was being rapidly depleted.
The more she fought, the more terrified she became.
(We can't afford to waste any more time...)
(If I keep delaying like this... I'll definitely be the one who loses!)
Thinking about this...
A resolute glint flashed in her eyes.
(Since that's the case...)
(I'm going all out!)
boom!
She suddenly retreated a hundred meters.
His aura suddenly subsided.
An eerie silence suddenly fell over the surroundings.
A stream of seven-colored light flowed slowly from her demonic eyes.
As the power continued to gather, the seven-colored light in her eyes gradually faded, returning to its original state.
at the same time.
A condensed, multicolored stream of light slowly wrapped around her right arm.
The suffocating, terrifying pressure continued to rise.
Rudeus watched this scene quietly, without making a move.
The reason is simple.
Kishirika's attack requires preparation.
And he--
unnecessary.
At this moment, simply clench your right fist slowly.
The next moment.
The surging Touki within his body roared forth.
Golden Touki covered his entire right arm like raging flames.
Touki Coating!
This is a basic skill that even Advanced Swordsman should be able to master.
But now, in his hands...
However, it unleashed a completely different kind of power.
The next moment.
They attacked at the same time!
boom--!!
The two fists collided with a loud crash.
Golden Touki and seven-colored light intertwined wildly.
The ear-piercing scraping sound kept ringing out.
Kishirika's expression changed drastically.
She struggled to maintain the strength in her right arm, but she couldn't stop herself from retreating step by step.
"Too weak!"
Rudeus roared, and the Touki on his right fist suddenly surged.
boom!!!
The violent force instantly blasted Kishirika away.
She streaked across the sky like a shooting star.
The next moment.
A violent explosion swept across the entire sky.
Boom--!!!
The once indestructible Emperor Rank Sealing Barrier could no longer withstand such a terrifying impact.
It was accompanied by a deafening roar.
It shattered with a deafening roar!
Countless purple fragments transformed into streams of light that slowly drifted away.
Kishirika, on the other hand, was thrown by the aftershocks of the explosion all the way to the edge of his field of vision.
"Tsk."
"Still couldn't control himself..."
The words had barely left his mouth.
His figure transformed into a streak of light once more, speeding away in the direction from which Kishirika had flown.
at the same time.
Dozens of miles away from the battlefield.
The once bustling town remains as lively as ever.
Travelers and adventurers from all continents come and go in an endless stream.
The cries of street vendors rose and fell in a continuous stream.
The tavern was filled with the clinking of glasses and lively conversation.
No one realized it.
Disaster is imminent.
suddenly...
Someone looked up at the sky.
What is that?
horizon--
A black dot is growing larger and larger at an alarming rate.
At first, nobody cared.
But after only a few breaths...
The black dot transformed into a streak of light burning through the air, plummeting rapidly towards the town!
The next moment--
Boom!
A deafening roar swept through the entire town.
A sizable building was instantly reduced to rubble.
Smoke and dust billowed into the sky.
Gravel flew everywhere.
The streets immediately descended into chaos.
However, after a brief moment of panic, a large number of demon residents instead flocked to the ruins.
More and more people are gathering.
Until the smoke and dust gradually dissipated.
In the center of the ruins.
A figure with two horns on its head and purple hair flowing down its shoulders slowly appeared.
"The Demon... the Demon Emperor?!"
Someone exclaimed in surprise.
The crowd erupted in chaos.
"It really is the Demon Emperor!"
"She's injured?"
"She fell from the sky!"
"Could it be... that someone is fighting the Demon Emperor?"
"Who on earth could have beaten the Demon Emperor to this state?"
Discussions rose and fell.
Kishirika slowly regained consciousness.
She gritted her teeth, bracing herself against the collapsed stone wall beside her, and tried to stand up.
However...
It failed.
At that very moment.
A sharp whistling sound pierced the air once again.
Everyone looked up at the same time.
A figure slowly descended from the sky.
Brown hair, blue eyes.
His muscular upper body was bare.
Those muscle lines looked as if sculpted by a god, and that face seemed to have been created by Nüwa based on her male god.
Men will go crazy if they see this, and women will stop menstruating if they see it.
Its tall and straight figure hangs high in the sky.
The demonic light flowed slowly, and the surrounding space was constantly distorted by his presence.
This moment.
Everyone was stunned.
The figure ignored everyone's gaze.
He simply raised his right hand slowly.
He gently grasped the hand of Kishirika's hand amidst the ruins.
The next moment.
Purple magic suddenly gathered.
A gigantic purple magical hand appeared out of thin air.
[ The Void God Choke!]
The magical hand instantly and firmly imprisoned Kishirika.
The entire square was completely silent.
suddenly--
Someone in the crowd widened their eyes and shouted:
"I remember now!"
"This bizarre magic..."
He is--
" Primordial God!!"
These words were spoken.
The entire town instantly erupted in excitement.
" Primordial God?!"
"Is that Primordial God that became famous in the Central Continent a few years ago?"
"So the rumors were true!"
"That shooting star that streaked across the sky a few days ago was indeed Primordial God Impact descending!"
"I've also heard that any random follower under Primordial God Impact could single-handedly wipe out a black dragon pack!"
"That's a legendary figure who became an S-rank adventurer in just one week!"
"Look!"
" Primordial God has flown away again!"
Amidst the shocked and awe-inspiring gazes of the people.
That godlike figure, carrying the imprisoned Demon Emperor, transformed into a streak of light and vanished into the horizon.
The entire town remained unsettled for a long time.
