The blood-red hulking visage of the 20-meter tall Fireblood Sovereign was now full of cracks from where it was bombarded with Energy Explosions. The regenium plates covering it shattered and fell off to the ground. Though it visibly regenerated through my naked eye, the Enthroned Prince was probably banged up inside it. If he didn't retreat, he would be done in by now.
The debuffs that stacked up have also started to plague him. He would either feel weak both in attack and defense and maybe slowed down.
"How can someone without an Ultimate Metagen do this? He's more of a monster than that woman!"
The Imperial Guardian Liam blurted out after his shock subsided. That Majestic Mammoth echoed the trembling voice of him and beneath that trembling voice was his horror and dread at what had just happened.
Normally the one who would be at a disadvantage was the one not piloting a Metagen. Their Brain Capacity would have boosted their energy output for 200% or more. For me to overwhelm the Enthroned Prince could be attributed to my buffs and my higher Energy Control.
"Don't just watch and cower in there Liam. Help me take him down."
Julian spat to his peer as he tried to steady his previously battered Metagen. It's almost back to its original form if not for smokes still being exuded from it.
It's really amazing to see the control of Transcendents. He already managed to repair that barrage of explosions.
It's not like I'm expecting to destroy their Metagen. This world invented something really amazing. I bet only those with Psyche Type of Source Energy could create these.
"I thought you two are already Transcendents for 20 years? Why does it feel like I'm fighting a Mortal?"
Since I was already exposed as a Transcendent, if a Dark World denizen was watching, my identity was surely reported back to their homeworld.
It doesn't matter now if I became this high profile. In a war, it would be a miracle if they could creep up on me. I would be able to detect them through my Adaptability.
"Parlor tricks! Let's see if you can still stay as confident with this! Fireblood Demons!"
Like a villain in certain novels and animes, Julian spat out his technique name for all of us to hear.
As his burst of Meta Energy whirled and stirred the surroundings, the crown on top of his Metagen lodged off from its head and hovered in front of it.
The crown was then expanded by itself before it glowed a brilliant red. Soon after that, a drizzle of dark red blood rained from beneath it.
However, the drizzle of blood didn't continue to fall off to the ground, instead, it became suspended in the air as it moved to form the same outline as the Fireblood Sovereign.
When it finished, the drizzle of blood was ignited and burst into flames which slowly transformed into a flaming clone of the Fireblood Sovereign.
As the heat of that burning clone reached the ground beneath us, the short grass dried up and the land cracked which spoke of how high the temperature it was emanating.
When the clone completely formed, the crown moved and started to create another clone.
Since I was slowly moving away from the Scorched Forest to not let them notice how special the place is, we eventually arrived at an open plain.
"Liam! What are you still standing for? Can't you see he's starting to distance himself? Engage him and don't let him go!"
The Enthroned Prince shouted to the Imperial Guardian. He couldn't move at all because he's concentrating himself to create those 20-meter clones of him.
Of course, those clones were probably stronger than the clones I could produce in an instant.
Just from the pressure it was emanating, it has at least 80% of his total prowess. I don't know if that's the Enthroned Prince's strongest card but it's probably enough to deal with my clones that were buffed to the limit.
"I know! Don't you dare command me!"
The Imperial Guardian shouted back angrily before he piloted his Majestic Mammoth to rush towards me.
That old man was really someone easy to erupt from being angry. It would be much better if they fought amongst themselves, no?
By the time that it takes for the Imperial Guardian to decide about attacking me, I've already completely replenished my Flux Energy. It's also why I let the Enthroned Prince to easily retreat. Right now, my goal is to let them know that I am a formidable addition to Nysia's organization.
I recreated the destroyed clones while I moved back again to let them engage the Imperial Guardian. I didn't bother concealing myself anymore. With both the Domain of Valor and Bulwark of Invulnerability opened, it's pretty much useless.
"You're really arrogant! Mere clones wouldn't be able to block this! Mammoth Charge!"
Eh? Do they really need to shout it out? Either way, it's easier to predict that attack.
When I reached a certain distance, I focused myself molding projectiles before sending them all batch by batch. With the four clones holding off that Mammoth Charge of him, his Metagen started to be bombarded by Energy Explosion Projectiles.
I then lifted my hand and cast Magic Missiles upwards.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Magic Missiles hit something and a group of five Darkgens appeared from above. All of them were at least a Specialized Darkgens meaning they're almost like that Delares.
I already saw that kind of trick during Yuko's Transcendence and with my Adaptability, it's laughable for them to think that they would be able to move sneakily around me.
The Enthroned Prince was still busy creating his clones and the Imperial Guardian was busy smashing away the four clones who could fight intelligently.
The debuffs were fully stacked on the Imperial Guardian which allowed my clones to cope with his strength and speed. And since his Ultimate Metagen was more than 10 times my size it became even harder for him to aim at them.
Using that timeframe where I am free. I flew upwards and unsheathed Willful Sword.
This one kept trembling at my hips as if it wanted me to use him since earlier. However, there's no opportunity for it earlier.
Now that those Darkgens appeared, he finally got his time to shine.
The blue-colored Swordforce and the Bedevilled Aura which coated it gave the Willful Sword an eye-catching and prominent presence. Even if it's not made from pure regenium, it was tempered by tribulation lightning itself!
With the addition of the lightning spark that seemingly became its own enhancement by devouring the lightning dragons, the Willful Sword became even more eye-catching with that blue lightning spark when the Swordforce coated it.
I still haven't created my own Sword Skills but I have those two in my arsenal.
Flash Draw!
In a blink of an eye, I passed through two stacked Darkgens and appeared above them. It was too fast that I felt like I penetrated through a soft surface.
When I looked behind me, an afterimage of a blue lightning streak which started from where I activated the Sword Skill was left behind.
A few seconds later, a human-sized hole was created in the middle of the two Specialized Darkgen before a series of explosions simultaneously occurred inside it, obliterating the two Darkgens from inside out.
While the explosions were happening, I used Elusive Steps and instantly appeared behind another one.
As a Transcendent and someone with 200+ Power Level, a Mortal, be it a Rank 5 who's about to reach Transcendence, wouldn't be able to catch me and just watch on as my afterimages moved one after another.
I slashed open the cockpit of one and killed the pilot who couldn't even react to what happened before flying to the next one to do the same.
When the last Darkgen noticed what was happening, it was already too late. He was just about to turn around when Energy Explosion Projectiles bombarded his back.
In less than a minute, the five exposed Darkgens were all destroyed
"What do you think, Enthroned Prince Liam? How long will I have to wait? Should I see your wife first before going back to fight you again?"
"Daisuke. What are you saying there?"
"Ah. Right. You're still there, Nysia. Don't worry, I'm just trying to anger him."
"Elise is here. Idiot Daisuke."
After saying that Nysia pouted before backing away from the screen. Moments later, apart from the Sovereign Princess Elise, Imperial Princess Leianne and Moonlight Queen Lunaria were also curiously looking at the screen of Interdimensional Communication. Behind them were Lexie and the three Heroes; Matthew, Amry and Kazeyoshi.
Ugh. Everything was broadcasted to them...
