Chapter 412: The Power Of A Lord
Laz let it all out, all of the pain and anger and rage he felt. Every dark thing inside of him came out with his voice and the world itself responded, shaking a bit from just the sound.
This wasn’t something a person in the void palace realm could do. While this wasn’t considered a very high realm by the ones who have entered what they call the god realm, it was the highest that anyone born within the last one hundred years had been able to reach.
And the first sign of this realm was the ability to actually effect the world around you, even if it was slightly.
Once Laz had gotten that out of his system, he fell down on his knees and drew in deep breaths, his body still wracked with pain. To the outside observer, it might have seemed like he had taken the attack with ease. But the truth of the matter was far from simple.
His body still ached as the black lightning coursed through him, tempering him, making him stronger. At the same time though, it did a number on his body, making him hurt in ways he never thought possible.
Laz was just barely able to look up again and see the sky returning to normal. He had survived this tribulation, all be it just barely, but he had no idea if he could survive the next if it was going to be worse.
For the most part, the strongest of the bolts he confronted with his fist. But there were several other bolts that had hit him straight on that he wasn’t able to fend off. Those were the ones that were currently doing a number on him.
Just as Laz was getting back to his feet, he was forced to jump back quickly and roll along the ground to dodge the fist that came flying out of no where. It hit the ground where he had been standing, leaving a huge pit the size of a swimming pool.
Tezcatlipoca removed his first from the ground and looked, quickly noticing that Laz had avoided it. Crawling forward towards Laz, Tezcatlipoca brought his hand up as though he was going to swat Laz like a bug. Laz, who could barley move as it was, kicked the tree that was next to him and sent himself flying away from Tezcatlipoca who again missed, but left a massive hand print in the ground.
"YOU CAN’T AVOID ME FOREVER LITTLE BUG!" Tezcatlipoca yelled out as he again searched around for Laz.
The only thing saving Laz at the moment was that he was so small while Tezcatlipoca was very large. Added on to that Tezcatlipoca’s injuries impairing his ability to use his sense while Laz’s injuries made his energy signature appear like a candle in the wind and as long as Laz didn’t make too much movement, it would be hard for Tezcatlipoca to locate him.
While a game of cat and mouse might be fun, that wasn’t something Laz wanted to do right now.
Standing up, Laz turned to face Tezcatlipoca who was still looking around for him. Thinking about things, Laz couldn’t help but curse and make himself a promise. As soon as he got out of here, he would hop online and look up some actual moves he could do with his abilities. Major some ancient martial arts had moves and attacks that he could make use of, instead of having just one move.
Laz’s primary problem is his strength has always been above his opponents so he didn’t need much in the way to strategy. Either that or he would rely on his black flame and just use it like a flame thrower. The only times were this had failed him was when he was being chased around by armed troops. Perhaps it he had other moves up his sleeve, he wouldn’t always find himself in such a passive state when faced with something stronger than him.
Either way, now wasn’t the time for that. Sever had been lost somewhere when Laz had been vomited up and he had no clue where it was at the moment. That left the only attack that Laz could use.
Stepping back, Laz took on a horse stance and prepared himself, taking deep breaths. Tezcatlipoca had just noticed him and was crawling his busted ass right at Laz as he knew this was the best time to kill him.
Just as Tezcatlipoca came within swinging distance, Laz finally felt the energy building within. Tezcatlipoca quickly brought his massive hand up into the air and straight down on where Laz was standing, not giving him the chance to escape again.
But Laz wasn’t going to escape. Instead, he stepped forward and brought his fist to bear against Tezcatlipoca’s palm.
The resulting clash caused Laz to sink into the ground, almost to his knees. But the result was he blew away Tezcatlipoca’s palm causing it to fly back and knocking Tezcatlipoca into a roll that ended up with him landing on his ass.
Laz was almost more shocked than Tezcatlipoca.
Staring down at his fist, he remembered the times where he had channeled the Dragon Fist before, but the results were not nearly this powerful. Tezcatlipoca might have been injured, but he was still a god. And his strength, although weakened, was still a god’s strength. Despite that, Laz was able to take the blast with his body and send the massive god flying.
"Is this the true strength of a Lord?" Laz asked himself as he stepped out of the ground. Just as he was going to try doing it again, Laz felt his body weaken as his left knee hit the ground, no longer able to keep him up.
He might have blown back Tezcatlipoca’s attack, but it had used what little energy remained in his body.
Lifting his head, Laz saw Tezcatlipoca right himself and begin crawling towards Laz again, this time with a venom in his eyes.
"HA ha ha ha. The bug just sent you flying. How does that feel, huh?" Even if he was weak right now, Laz wouldn’t just roll over and die. He would fight with anything he had left, even if it was just words.
"HE he he he he.... Try it again little bug. Even if I’m injured, I can see that there is nothing left to you. Despite all of your efforts, you’re still nothing more than a snack to me. And once I’ve eaten you and pulled these damn stakes from my head, I will begin by hunting down every women here, all of the ones you’re close to. Perhaps some will survive if they please me. Maybe you don’t know this... but I can change the size of my body to be just the same as you. Tell me... how do you think your women would enjoy the dick of a god? Hmm? Maybe you’ll be able to hear their moans of pleasure from inside my stomach... a sweet music to die by, don’t you think?"
Tezcatlipoca again raised his hand as Laz looked on, powerless to do anything else. He didn’t even have the energy to summon the black flame out from within to burn Tezcatlipoca’s hand when he hit him.
Just as the crazy, crawling god raised his hand up, a massive leg struck him in the stomach, sending the ancient god flying.
Laz’s eyes went wide in shock as he followed the still out stretched leg to see who it was connected to.
Sure enough a massive beauty was standing there, her dark hair running down her back like a river of ink, stopping a few mere feet above the ground. Her tanned face looked as though it had been sculpted by a master, a beauty that words couldn’t do justice too. Laz had no idea if her breasts were considered massive since from where Laz was kneeling, they looked like they could crush his entire body with room to spare. As for her ass.... There was no denying the perfection of it, even if it was as large as a house.
The beauty suddenly stopped glaring at Tezcatlipoca to look down at Laz.
"Let me take it from here. I’ve been waiting over five hundred years to do this," Ichpochtli said with a smile before running after Tezcatlipoca.
Laz didn’t even reply, kneeling there in shock.
"That... well... I guess better late than never," Laz finally got out as he sat down on the ground. Crossing his legs over one another, Laz sat with his back straight while he tried his best to channel his Infinity technique. He needed to regain his strength as quickly as possible and didn’t have any stones left or even the batteries he had always kept on hand, having handed them all over to Nora.
Luckily for Laz, there were a few drops of Tezcatlipoca’s blood left on the ground which provided small pools of energy, helping Laz to recover quickly.
"WAS IT FUN? SETTING MY OWN BROTHER UP TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ME?"
"WHAT’S WRONG? WAS YOUR DICK TO USELESS TO DO IT YOURSELF?"
"HERE. LET ME CRUSH THOSE USELESS LITTLE BALLS DOWN THERE SINCE THERE IS NO NEED FOR YOU TO EVER USE THEM AGAIN!"
Ichpochtli’s assault was as verbal as it was physical. Laz tried his best to focus, but with a hundred foot tall woman screaming obscenities while beating the hell out of the already injured Tezcatlipoca, it was almost impossible. Laz was able to drain most of the energy off the pools of blood, but a lot of that energy ended up being wasted as Laz was constantly shaking out of his meditation by either the screaming Ichpochtli or the crying Tezcatlipoca.
"Whatever... at least I can walk now." Laz finally gave up and stood up. He figured now would be a good time to go take advantage of the situation and kick Tezcatlipoca while he was down, until he heard something in the distance.
Attuning his hearing to the sound, Laz figured out what the loud noise was even if he couldn’t see it at first.
"That sounds like a plane.... But I don’t see..." Laz’s voice cut off as he finally figured out where it was and just how high it was.
Laz had never seen this type of aircraft, but he could tell from the massive guns loaded underneath it and the open hatches that had yet to display their contents that he was, without a doubt.. fucked.
