Return of the Fallen Volume 8 Chapter 55
“CRUSHHHH!!!”
Azar roared out and willed his magic forth. The space around the black hole was pushed inward from every direction and the spin from the black hole slowed further.
Both kings felt the pull on their bodies weaken drastically but it still wasn’t enough and they were still being pulled toward the center. Power continued to pour from Azar like a rushing river. His control of gravity was masterful and it slammed into the blackhole from all sides. At the same time, using this gravity, he kept it from being devoured by giving it an opposing pull outward.
A strange tug of war began to take shape as the black hole pulled at his gravity, while his gravity both tried to crush the black hole as well as tear it apart. Glacious could see the black hole was slowing. This was too good of an opportunity to kill these two kings in one fell swoop. There’s no way Glacious would just sit idly by while Azar and Berus tried to survive this.
Glacious’s eyes glowed with purple light and the element of space gathered in front of him.
“OPEN!”
He fired his energy into the spinning black hole and it suddenly started to expand rapidly. The slow spin from before was extinguished and it began to churn like a tornado. The suction force increased greatly and both Kings started to lose out.
(I can only let this black hole grow so much and stay for so long. After a minute more, its power will be too great even for me to handle and I’ll no longer be able to squash it.)
Glacious looked at the two struggling kings and decided to give them a hand…to their deaths.
Purple light surrounded Glacious body in a layer of space element. Using the power of space, Glacious guided over to Berus. He would have flown faster but that would require lessening his space barrier. If he were to do that, then he to would be forcefully pulled toward the black hole.
Berus saw Glacious coming toward himself and he panicked.
“Stay away! stay away from me!”
His mouth opened and a beam of cold energy shot out. It was nearly a mile wide when it escaped from his mouth and came flying toward Glacious like a descending mountain. Glacious smirked before dodging the frozen beam with little effort.
He appeared behind Berus and grabbed his ankle.
“Now now, this isn’t the time to be scared. accept your fate and try not to scream like the shit stain that you are as the power of space tears you into a million pieces.”
Glacious then pulled Berus with full force and slung him toward the black hole.
“NOOOOO!”
Berus clawed and grabbed at the ground with everything he had but even with his powerful grip, it was of no use. The ground would simply be ripped up and dragged backward along with him.
The gears were still turning rapidly in Azar’s head. When he saw Berus flying backward uncontrollably, he knew there was no more time to think things through. One thing he understood though was that his gravity did in fact slow and reduce the power of the black hole.
As Berus was flying closer and closer to the black hole, he roared at him.
“BERUS, FIRE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE AT ME!”
Berus didn’t understand and was still in a state of panic.
Azar roared at him even louder and put power in his voice.
YOU DUMB BASTARD! THIS IS YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO LIVE! FIRE EVERYTHING AT ME RIGHT NOW!!!”
Azar’s voice shook Berus to his core and he snapped out of it. Still, the fear of death was upon him but he could only trust Azar at this moment. His eyes glowed with silver light and he opened his mouth once more. Chains of lightning raced out of his hands and a frozen beam of energy stormed from his mouth.
From an outside perspective, one would not understand just how much power was contained inside of these two attacks. It would simply be too hard to fathom unless one were strong themselves. These two attacks though, contained within them they had the power to crush the entire continent of Feya and more.
All of this power that could destroy everything around them rushed at Azar. If Azar simply took this head-on, he would not simply be able to walk away afterward but he didn’t plan to take it all on. The moment it came before him, Azar reached deep within himself and gathered his own power before spitting out a large blood orb right in front of the path of this powerful attack.
The blood orb was slightly larger than a melon and emitted a strange power. Glacious knew about blood orbs, he himself had used them many times but this one felt strange.
(Could that be Blood Essence. With that, his power would skyrocket! (I have to finish him here and now!)
The moment Berus’s attack struck it, to both his surprise as well as Berus’s, the blood orb wasn’t destroyed but instead, the opposite took place. Berus’s powerful attack sunk into the blood orb as if the orb was a sponge.
Glacious knew that a blood essence orb contained the power of the one who spat it out. It could make others more powerful for a short time so he expected Azar to send it flying toward Berus in some desperate attempt to save him but that isn’t what happened at all.
The attack seemingly fell into the blood orb and the reaction was immediate.
The orb of blood expanded several times in an instant and pulsed with undulations of might. The orb’s pulsing became greater and greater and faster and faster. It was the size of a small building and the power within touched a level that even Glacious had never gone to. The moment Glacious realized there was this much power within this strange blood orb, his instinct screamed at him to destroy it.
The last time he felt his own beast instincts alarm him like this, he had nearly died. Glacious didn’t hesitate. He raced over toward Azar but his speed was delayed because of the power of space. Even though his speed was still incredible, even though he still arrived before Azar in less than a second, Azar didn’t need that amount of time to open his mouth and inhale the entire blood orb.
The orb disappeared in an instant. Glacious didn’t know what this would do but he had on time to do nothing. He grabbed Azar and a black flame surrounded his right hand. Using all of his strength, his hand covered in the combined power of darkness and fire, struck forth and pierced Azar’s chest and out the back. Azar’s body lit up like a dark sun as he was entirely engulfed in flame.
Berus was almost at the black hole and felt the fear of death overcome him as he saw Azar die just like that. In only a few more seconds, he would be sucked into the black hole and possibly be ripped to shreds. It was over.
Azar’s eyes rolled up in his head and blood splattered from his mouth and chest and his entire body went limp. Glacious tried to pull his arm from Azar’s chest when Azar grabbed his wrist. His eyes rolled forward and at this moment, in a quiet whisper, two words escaped from his lips.
“Blood Essence.”
*BA BUMP*
Glacious had completely crushed Azar’s heart when he pierced his chest but in a split second, his heart completely regenerated in a different part of his chest, and his power rose and shot up in an instant. Azar’s grip tightened and Glacious to his absolute shock, he could feel the bone in his arm starting to break.
*Crack crack*
Glacious knew right away that his strength had been outclassed by Azar at this moment. Glacious circulated his ki as fast as possible and transformed into his true body. The moment he did this, his arm was freed and he became the size of a mountain.
Glacious opened his mouth and a blazing tornado filled with both fire and dark energy came crushing downward. It struck Azar and continued downward, drilling a large trench several miles deep and several miles wide into the ground.
The flames spread outward and the ground melted and became magma. A pillar of dirt, flying rocks, and splinters of stone filled the sky, hiding Azar. Glacious knew he hadn’t killed Azar, not even close. The power he felt at that moment, it wasn’t comparable to anything in this lower realm.
All of the dust and smoke was sucked toward the black hole and Berus was about to be pulled in.
It was then that all of the smoke and dust, all the flying debris, and Berus all were forcefully pushed to the ground.
Out of the deep dark trench in the ground, two dark glowing orbs floated upward. A moment later, these orbs came out from the darkness revealing themselves to be King Azar’s eyes.
King Azar slowly floated up and out of the trench. Extending his hand forward, he grabbed at the open air. The power of Gordonia rushed forward like an unending ocean and gravity surrounded the black hole once more. Squeezing his hand into a fist, the black hole, in an instant, was crushed into nothingness.
Using the power of gravity, Azar had destroyed the black hole in a single grabbing motion. Berus at this time was grateful to be alive but at the same time, he could not stand because of the gravity around him. Instead, he was in a humiliating kneeling position.
He and Azar exchanged a look and Azar smirked seeing him kneel.
“AZAR! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING! LET ME UP RIGHT NOW!”
