Zeus, revered as the King of Gods, was a magus of unparalleled prowess. His silhouette, emanating a distinct aura, hinted at his mastery over the laws of lightning. Unlike any other lightning magus, Zeus had an ace up his sleeve - a unique blue lightning spell that shimmered and danced in a manner that left onlookers in awe.
To further magnify his already immense power, he wielded a tier 6 thunderbolt spear, a weapon that echoed with the voices of storms and resonated with the heartbeat of thunder. It wasn't just a testament to his strength but also to his position. Standing as a formidable figure, he was rightly positioned as the second-in-command, subordinate only to his father, Kronos.
Facing the dominating presence, the magus voice thundered, echoing the authority of his divine lineage.
"I am Zeus! Your god!"
In defiance, unwilling to concede or kneel, Zeus's palms became the canvas for a spectacle. Blue lightning, reminiscent of the deepest oceans, began to crackle and dance across his hands. With a focused intent, he began casting [Thundergod's Wrath], an evolved and advanced lightning bolt spell that held the destructive potential of a tier 7 spell.
The unleashed power wasn't just intimidating in strength but also in its scale. The blast expanded rapidly, its tendrils reaching out in a wide arc, aiming to ensnare everything in its path. Emery, recognizing the threat, didn't attempt to rely on agility. Instead, he trusted his legendary sword, hoping its ancient metal would absorb and repel Zeus's fury.
While the sword lived up to its legend, stopping a majority of the onslaught, some tendrils of the blue lightning found their way past its defense. They snaked around Emery, piercing his defenses and sending jolts of electricity coursing through his body.
Emery couldn't suppress the pain. "Aarrgghh!!!" he howled, the surprise evident in his voice as the cold, blue current slithered through his veins.
To Zeus, this scene was a sight for sore eyes. A triumphant grin stretched across his face, as he knew, in his heart, that such a strike would've left any other magus incapacitated, if not worse.
Unfortunately for him, Emery was not any other magus, in fact he was considered an anomaly in comparison to other magus in the universe. Emery was one such enigma. Nestled within him was the mighty heritage of fey blood, gifting him a formidable physique that few could rival. But it wasn't just his ancestry that made him special. Deep within his core surged the unpredictable and wild power of Khaos. And while Zeus's blue bolt did sting and cause pain, it failed to inflict any lasting harm. Emery, with his unique constitution, remained resilient.
Gathering his strength, Emery let out a powerful roar, a sound that reverberated like a tempest. The very air around him quivered, and the intrusive energy of the lightning was forcefully expelled from his body. His pain subsided, replaced by a calm assurance. A grin slowly returned to his lips. "I'm afraid" he remarked with a playful smirk, "you're going to need more than that to take me down."
"Huh!! Take a few more and dare you say the same!"
As the two titans clashed, it became evident that Zeus, despite his impressive display of might, was gradually being pushed back. Emery's relentless attacks and unpredictable maneuvers had the god on the ropes. Were it not for Zeus's blue lightning buff spell, which endowed him with breathtaking speed, Emery would've had him cornered already.
Recognizing the need to bring this protracted duel to an end, Emery delved deep into his arsenal of spells. He called upon the spatial spell, [Gravitational Pressure], an ability that manifested an immense force, suffocating and binding its targets. The force encircled Zeus, ensnaring him, restricting the movements of the once-agile magus.
Zeus grunted, the weight of the force pressing down on him, making it hard to even breathe. "How?" he gasped, a mixture of shock and disbelief evident in his voice. "In a mere decade? How have you achieved such prowess?"
Emery's voice was the very picture of serenity, a stark contrast to the chaotic battlefield.
"Consider it fate, Zeus. Your era is drawing to a close. Hand over the caretaker's mantle to us."
Zeus's eyes blazed with defiance. "Never! I am Zeus, the King of gods! You shall not take what's mine!!"
In that heated moment, Emery's senses sharpened. He could feel a colossal surge of power, more potent than anything he had sensed from Zeus before. However, instead of retreating or preparing a defense, Emery stood firm, a plan forming in his mind. He would let Zeus unleash his ultimate attack, letting him cling to that final sliver of hope before snuffing it out.
In an intense surge of energy, the atmosphere began to shift. The sky above, which was previously clear, suddenly darkened as tumultuous clouds, imbued with ominous power, formed a colossal whirlpool. These weren't just any clouds; they were inky black with a pulsating blue aura, evocative of a mighty thunderstorm.
But it wasn't just one singular thunderstorm that took form. Three more identical thunderstorms manifested, each in a different quadrant of the sky. They whirled, danced, and interconnected, their energies combining in a deadly ballet. The sight was awe-inspiring yet terrifying.
It was at this moment, watching the swirling maelstroms of energy, that a stark realization dawned upon Emery. Zeus wasn't weaving this spell for a mere show of power against a single opponent. No, this was something far grander and sinister in its design. The very essence of this spell could obliterate the city of Rome in its entirety.
Zeus, seeing Emery's dawning understanding, shouted defiantly, eyes blazing with mad determination, "If I can't have it, neither will you!"
The words echoed ominously, signaling the activation of his dreaded tier-seven world destruction spell known as [Nimbus].
Emery, consumed with regret for not acting sooner, reacted with lightning speed. Employing his [Blink] ability, he positioned himself strategically between the menacing thunderstorm and the vulnerable city below. Drawing deep within, he channeled the full amount of his spirit energy, the Nature core, and the Khaos power from his Primal core into one.
[Dao Matter], a powerful counterforce, a radiant sphere of energy.
As the two colossal forces, [Nimbus] and [Dao Matter], collided, the resulting impact was cataclysmic. A shockwave of immense power spread outward, sending ferocious winds ripping through the surroundings, uprooting trees, and shaking the very ground beneath.
Yet, even amidst this chaos, Emery's sphere held strong. It not only absorbed a significant portion of the destructive energy but even pushed it back into its caster.
KABOOMMM!!!
