The Executor stands at the center of the village with an air of indomitability, his frame was strong which gives a feeling that nothing can faze him, especially with the confident air that is emanating from him radiantly.
Despite the eeriness of the abandoned city, he doesn't seem disturbed.
Not even a change in his expression can be seen as if the stench of death and decay are something normal for him, an entire village that was once brimming with life doesn't spike any emotion from him.
Glancing around the place, his sharp red eyes scanned the entire place.
But despite waiting for a moment, the abandoned village was still a statue. Nothing moved, and there was only the occasional creaking noise from the decomposed wood that is not attended to for months now.
Even though there was not a single cue of anything happening, the Executor smiled.
It may be true that normal or even Awakened that they can't find anything moving in this abandoned village, but his eyes can see all, nothing can escape his sharp gaze. Just a little bit in front of him, he can see a concentrated cursed energy bubbling above a single house.
Without even hesitating, the Executor looks at the house before he lightly scoffed.
"Ask the witches before you, ask them the consequences of making me wait like this. I'm sure they can tell you clearly..." the Executor said with a rasping tone, his sentence is filled with warning.
Just then, a black eye and a yellow eye appeared from inside the house.
Stepping out of the thick darkness surrounding the house was a woman that should be the Witch of Chaos, her haunting yet mesmerizing appearance can strike all kinds of emotions in anyone that laid their eyes on her.
Clad in a one-piece black garment, layered with a black robe, she looked like a night wraith.
Fixing her gaze on the Executor that is emanating an overbearing aura, her expression slightly darkens before she walks out of the darkness. Inside the empty abandoned village, the sound of her black heels echoed throughout the place.
It didn't take long before the Witch of Chaos stopped a distance away from the Executor.
Now that her entire appearance was exposed, the Executor looks at her from the tip of her toes, going up to her black leggings that reach above her knees, and all the way to her diabolical piercing eyes.
Looking at her appearance, there seem to be quite some changes in her.
"Watch your eyes, Witch of Chaos. I don't like them..." the Executor commented, squinting his eyes as the Witch of Chaos doesn't seem to avert her eyes away from him. It was a sign of insubordination that annoys him.
Just then, the Executor glanced at either side sensing two presence beside the Witch.
From inside the darkness of the house she was in earlier, a black shadow that spreads chilling coldness to the surroundings swirls and stopped on the right side of the Witch of Chaos. Its presence makes the entire place colder, as cold as a dead corpse.
Soon enough, the black wraith takes shape into a big hooded creature with a scythe.
Not stopping at that, the ground on the left side of the Witch of Chaos cracked as a steel insectoid creature that reeks of an enormous scent of blood emerged. It screeches strongly and coils its long body around the Witch almost like a snake.
Upon looking at the two creatures, the Executor kept a straight face, unimpressed.
But even though he was not impressed, the sight of the two creatures makes nodded his head. It's true that he came with a little malice inside of him, yet that malice completely disappeared at the sight of the two creatures.
"I reckon that the cursed energy in this world is higher, you've done well" the Executor said.
The Witch of Chaos kept silent and didn't reply to the Executor's remarks, her expression is ice cold as the Executor stretches lethal claws forward. "Both have attained the eighth-rank epiphany and are thus ready to be used. Quickly do the ritual, the crusade to cleanse the world is about to begin, and I need my weapon..."
Just like earlier, the Witch of Chaos didn't say anything and kept still in her place.
Looking at the unresponsive behavior of the Witch of Chaos, a frown finds its way toward the Executor's face. Yet, the frown didn't last long as it quickly turns into anger. Without even saying anything, the Executor vanished from his spot.
Swoosh!
Cloaking his entire claws with his devastating energy, he appears above the Witch.
Immense killing intent can be seen gushing out of his eyes, he didn't need to ask more to realize that the Witch of Chaos has turned insubordinate to him, the one true master of the world that must be revered by everyone.
Appearing like a suction of force, his claws were gathering a dangerous amount of energy.
Not even an early eighth-rank or even peak eighth-rank can stand unfazed near this attack, they would've found their entire being destroyed from the sheer presence of the energy. Even as the claws descend at the Witch of Chaos, one can see the dimension being slashed along with them.
It was a horrifying attack, the Executor doesn't seem to be playing around.
CLANG!
KABOOM!!
When his claws were about to reach the Witch of Chaos who is still looking at him unblinking, the two creatures on the side stood in the way of the claws' trajectory and protect the Witch of Chaos with their lives.
A thick layer of cursed energy covered their bodies, clashing against the Executor's energy.
Just from the clash between them, the entire abandoned village and beyond was utterly razed to the ground from the shockwave it created. In a blink of an eye, the entire place was reduced to flatland.
No more houses or even the remnant of the village was left after the shockwave.
"Don't forget, I am the true ruler of the world... You will bow down to me!" the Executor roared as his dark energy was infused with purple energy, and the power of his attack becomes even heavier because of that.
It was clearly seen as the crater around them keeps on spreading for more than a mile.
Each clash for high-ranked entities was always destructive to the whole world and even the people that are caught in the way, but this puts everything to shame as the Executor puts more and more power into his claws.
Under the force, the two creatures were quickly pushed back as their cursed layer cracked.
But as the two creatures were being pushed back, the Witch of Chaos finally made her move throughout this entire encounter. She raised her hand and use some of her own cursed energy to aid the two creatures.
Crack!
Surprisingly enough, the Executor's attack was stopped which put a shock on his face.
"Nobody is above us anymore... In this era, we are free" the Witch of Chaos whispers, her voice was enthralling and foreboding at the same time. She said that without an expression on her face, almost as if she was soulless.
As soon as he heard this, the Executor went berserk as his claws glowed.
Crash!
Although he has always been calm most of the time, even when he was fighting Rex, he was not this time. For once, he was not going to tolerate the Witch of Chaos that talk and thought as if she was higher than him.
With a blast of force from him, the cursed layer shattered.
Reaching out his claws, he quickly grabbed the insectoid creature and the hooded creature that are exposed to attack right on their faces. Upon seeing this, the Witch of Chaos' existence flickered before she reappeared a distance away.
Gripping their faces tightly, the Executor's eyes bulged angrily as he glared at the Witch.
KABOOM!
Like a berserk animal, the Executor slammed the two creatures on the ground fiercely with immense power. It was so powerful that the two creatures were not able to move after receiving that attack.
It was so bad that their entire bodies almost turned completely into cursed energy.
Just then the Executor raises his gaze when he saw the Witch of Chaos charging straight at him, a skull made of cursed energy appeared on the Witch's hand and keeps on increasing in size rapidly.
As soon as it was about the size of an adult human, she threw it straight at the Executor.
The Executor was about to lash out at the approaching cursed skull that had been hurled in his direction by the Witch of Chaos, yet he paused when he felt the air around him part ways as the cursed skull pierces approaching him rapidly.
An immediate danger can be felt coming from the cursed skull which makes him frown.
Despite his mind wanting to assert dominance over the insubordinate Witch of Chaos, his body reacted to this danger and he instinctively throw up his arms to protect himself from the cursed skull.
Upon getting hit by the cursed skull, his sturdy stance was pushed back quite far.
Two lines on the ground were created as his two feet tries to stop the force pushing him back. Not only that but the cursed skull also exploded with cursed energy that tries to infiltrate his body forcefully, it threaten to swallow him up whole.
Boom!
A sudden burst of energy dispersed the cursed energy from his body.
When his body finally comes to a stop, the Executor's eyes blasted with bloodlust.
It was one thing that the Witch of Chaos decided to be insubordinate to him, but it was another to actually force his instinct to defend himself despite his mind not wanting to do so. Out of everything, this one crosses the line and keeps on going beyond.
Not a hint of sanity can be seen in the Executor's eyes, he was completely infuriated.
"Enough..." the Executor said with a low baritone tone, he then glared at the Witch of Chaos standing across him before he tilts his head and his expression contorted in malice. "I will make sure that this day, this day will be the day the world forgets about the Witch of Chaos!"
Just as he said that his entire existence was cloaked with Chaos Element.
Although he has been holding back all this while as there's no need to be serious in fighting ants that call themselves strong in this era, he now decided that he would be a little bit serious as the Witch of Chaos has trampled over his pride.
"True Pneuma Spell..." the Executor whispers as he lowers his body.
Only from the first chant of his spell alone, the air around them suddenly ceased to create any sound and the world seems to slow down in response. A feeling of ominosity reaches its peak, and the Witch of Chaos for the first time doesn't look emotionless.
A heavy growling sound can be heard coming from the Executor's body.
In response to the Executor, the Witch of Chaos' clothes started glowing with cursed energy.
Numerous kinds of engravings from cursed symbols, ancient runes, and even unknown enchantments can be seen glowing across her entire clothes. Some even appeared on the skin on her face, it was definitely not a normal engraving for it to appear on the skin.
For a moment then, the entire surrounding turns black and white.
Any sort of color that their surroundings possessed was stripped away and turned bleak black and white, the enormous deep chasm of energy that the Executor possess was exposed to the fullest.
Every single understanding of the way of magic was shown for anyone to see.
Many would find this understanding too deep, their mind would turn insane if they catch sight of this power. It was simply unimaginable, yet the Executor possessed all of that and is also controlling it perfectly.
Soon, the Executor gazes up with extreme fierceness.
On his back, the Executor has a creature perched atop his right shoulder. A pair of beast eyes glowing an ethereal purple color, and it's also the source of the guttural growl which seemed to increase the power of the Executor.
It was a horrifying sight, even the Witch of Chaos felt danger from that spirit.
At this current moment, the Executor didn't spare any thought of what would happen to the Witch of Chaos after getting hit by his attack. In his mind, he simply has to make just of his pride. With a whispering tone, he then continued his chant.
"Chaos Star Lance..."
SWOOOSH!!
Crash!!
