Chapter The Emperor"s Fall!

He might had won against my Dungeon Bosses, yeah, but that doesn"t mean he has won the battle. Now that he was so weak and tired, it was the perfect opportunity to go and kill him personally! I quickly used several buffing Skills on myself, such as [Harden] and [Haste], enhancing physical defense and speed, and then used my great combination of [Roll] and [Telekinesis] to fly down like a purple meteor, directly over his head. If I can blast him into pieces before anything gets more annoying, that would be for the best!
CLAAAs.h.!.+
The Emperor"s eyes flashed with bright red light, as he intercepted my body with his sword and then parried me away. In an instant and while I was in midair, I detached my spikes and used [Spike Attack] and [Explosive Projectile Body] alongside [Purification] and [Holy Flames] to unleash flying projectiles loaded with his weakness!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
I then rolled in midair, gave a turn, and clashed against his body once more, suddenly bouncing off from his armor. It was incredibly tough, leaving bruises over my metallic coc.o.o.n sh.e.l.l with ease! I continued bombarding him with attacks so he wouldn"t be able to easily regenerate, but he still kept at it, fighting desperately against me with a smile on his face!
CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+
"You"re powerful and cunning…! You"re an incredible adversary, monster! Tell me your name!" He roared furiously at me, as I noticed his skin was strangely glowing red, as if something was emerging from within him!
"My name? Kireina! And yours?" I asked out of courtesy, although it was actually to buy time while I loaded a big attack.
"My name is Julius VIII!" He roared, his sword suddenly shaping as countless of phantasmal heads and arms attempting to grab me away, but I quickly summoned White and Black to intercept it!
"White!"
"Got it!"
FLAs.h.!.+
White unleashed her brightest light, piercing through the Cursed Sword"s phantoms and dissipating them just in time for Black to detect the Emperor emerging behind me. The b.a.s.t.a.r.d had used the time I distracted myself dealing with the phantoms to run behind me for a surprise attack.
But that won"t do!
"One Hundred Shadow Stingers!"
Black moved incredibly quickly, as a hundred phantasmal mirages of his own body emerged one after the other alongside his incredibly swift and fast movements, in mere seconds, he unleashed a storm of attacks that hit a hundred times the Emperor"s body, his armor finally began to show some cracks!
CRAs.h.!.+ CRAs.h.!.+ CRAs.h.!.+ CRAs.h.!.+ CRAs.h.!.+ CRAs.h.!.+
"Ugh! I-Incredible!" The Emperor groaned, quickly stepping back, and remaining standing still gasping for air as he vomited blood. Black"s power didn"t pierce his armor but he vomited blood by all the enormous force and shockwaves that were sent into his body through his armor.
"To think you have Sentient Weapons capable of floating in midair… You"re truly an otherworldly being! Not only your strange appearance is deceiving, your method of fighting, and your powers are all so foreign to me! T-This is incredible…! This is what I"ve been looking for this entire time!" The Emperor began to laugh maniacally.
"Less talk more action."
I used [Roll] and [Telekinesis] to impulse myself like a cannonball against him, suddenly clas.h.i.+ng over his body once more, and bouncing for the second time. His armor gained more cracks, but it seemed imbued with strong magic capable of regenerating the cracks, I had to hit him multiple times before it could actually break, f.u.c.king h.e.l.l!
CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+
He suddenly retaliate with three consecutive blows, as I parried them with Black and White, and then called upon Aquamarine.
SPLAs.h.!.+
Aquamarine quickly submerged him into a giant bubble of water, quickly taking him out of his concentration as he began to drown in the water.
"Now… Abyssal Ice!"
FLAAAs.h.!.+
I froze Aquamarine by infusing the [Abyssal Ice] Skill on his body, his entire body quickly turned into a block of purple ice, while the Emperor inside struggled to move outside, and failed terribly at that. His movements already dulled out by the curse and his sword techniques left useless underwater made it quite enjoyable to see him squirm and struggle inside the liquid interior of Aquamarine, which thanks to [Miasmic Ooze] turned into a miasmic water that was slowly intoxicating his body.
"Unnggh…! GRAAAAGGHHH..!"
As he struggled, I prepared a finis.h.i.+ng move, gathering the power of the Chaos Element into my hands and bringing Black towards me, turning him into darkness and fusing him with this Chaos, and then, I added the last ingredients…!
"Chaos Beam + Black"s Darkness Embodiment + Miasmic Ooze + Abyssal Ice + Fireball + Cutting Wind + Icicle Spike + Phantasmal Aura + Divine Aura and…! Divine Domain!"
FLUOOOs.h.!.+
Activating all Skills at the same time took a toll into my body, but when it all came together, it was completely worth it! The convergence of Skills effects quickly molded together as if I was manipulating everything like dough, combining and materializing into an enormous Spear blazing with chaotic flames and as sharp and big as a tower!
This is a brand-new form I have thought for Black… Ultimate Khaos!
"Now, go!"
FLAAAAAs.h.!.+
The enormous spear flew towards Aquamarine at an insane speed, as Aquamarine let himself be pierced and shattered into countless pieces, as the tip of Ultimate Khaos pierced through the armor of the Emperor and easily shattered it into pieces, his body easily being impaled alive as his blood splattered over the sky!
CLAAAa.s.sSHHH!
"UUUOOOGGGH…!"
The Emperor groaned in agony as Black continued lifting him up, suddenly completely piercing through all of his torso, slicing him in half as endless chaos and black flames consumed his entire body into an explosion atop the skies!
BOOOOMMM!!!
The explosion was of such magnitude that it resembled an atopic bomb. When I summoned Aquamarine and Black back to me, both were shattered into pieces, but still alive. Their Self-Repair Skills were slowly regenerating their entire shattered apart bodies back together.
"Is it finally done?" I wondered, looking into the skies.
But… there was something odd.
No EXP.
Even when the b.a.s.t.a.r.d was sliced in half and then blew into bits.
Why there"s no EXP yet?!
And then I saw it.
Atop the skies…
It was…!
