Chapter 1331 Cap 1329: Finals part 1
I wasn't even sent to the participants' area like previous times, my fight took so long that it should have ended after the other pair of competitors, so I was sent directly to an arena where the person wearing the hood was already waiting for me.
"[Ladies and Gentlemen, may this fight inspire those among you who miss the days of combat and may it honor the 4 Gods who gifted us with this magnificent competition!]" (Malakoi)
"[In this final, our last 2 competitors for the incredible truth of this competition are Demigods!]" (Malakoi)
"[In a competition with hundreds of Demigods and dozens of Minor Gods, against all expectations, the 2 meeting in the finals are Demigods!!!]" (Malakoi)
I couldn't hear anyone other than the tournament representative, so hearing their excitement and excitement being reciprocated with only silence is strange to me.
"[Let us make honorable introductions to these two rising stars among the Deities present here.]" (Malakoi)
"[On one side we have the Son of the Blood Goddess and Primordial Dragon of the Blood Eclipse, the one personally chosen by the God of Beasts, the Demigod Zenos!!!!]" (Malakoi)
When he pronounced my name a column of light lit up around me, it was harmless and only served as visual effects, a simple magic of the light element.
"[On the other side we have the world-conquering Demonic Hero, the one who until 2 years ago was the Champion of the Demonic God of Evil, his title of Blade of Destruction resounded throughout the universe, the Demigod Zharif!!!!]" (Malakoi)
"..." (I)
At the mention of his name, my opponent finally removes his cloak as a column of light rises into the heavens with him at its center.
This was the first time I saw him, his gray skin was marked by many scars, he had a pair of golden eyes and a third red eye in the middle of his forehead between his two thick horns, and his face was arrogant as he maintained a smug smile on his face while looking at me.
But it wasn't his appearance that caught my attention, it was the sword on his back, I could feel the same presence of chaos that I have been looking for since the beginning of the Tournament coming from that sword, he was the person I was looking for.
The presence of the sword was strange, it made me feel uncomfortable and for some reason, it seemed to reject its wielder, I could feel this just by seeing the way the sword's energy fluctuated avoiding touching his body, I don't know if he or anyone else can see this, but this was only increasing my curiosity.
He doesn't say anything, but I feel it in his eyes, he has some intention, and he is clearly provoking me, I also feel something strange coming from his body.
"(What is this feeling?)" (I)
"[In the name of the 4 Gods who granted us this spectacle of blood and will, I declare the beginning of the final fight!]" (Malakoi)
When he said that, none of us tried to use the Territory, if I could feel it then he also realized, this arena is between a Divine Realm, and none of us can create a Territory.
I thought about using my Divine Incarnation, I don't know anything about it, I won't reveal my power before seeing what it has to show.
"Die!"?(Zharif)
"< Demonic Magic: Evil Dimension >" (Zharif)
I could feel his magic activating inside the sword on his back, and soon a magic circle formed on his back sending waves into the surroundings, it wasn't creating a Territory, it was creating a temporary Separate Space around us, a really interesting technique if not Whether it was a thing, it was a forbidden technique using Souls.
The world around us was still the same, but Demonic energy was now abundant while miasma was rapidly accumulating.
"< Eclipse Rune: Override >" (I)
"< Sun and Moon Dimensional Seal >" (I)
I couldn't use my Divine weapons directly, but I could still use them indirectly, the power of the Sun in one hand and the Moon in the other helping to create 2 Seals to Seal this space with both of us inside.
"You're going to have to do better than that."?(I)
This time I didn't wait for him, I activated my Dragon mode and attacked him, this time I wasn't going to use my Divine Incarnation like the previous times, I felt like he was waiting for it from the beginning.
That's why I started attacking him without thinking twice, as soon as he pulls the sword on his back, an energy armor starts to crystallize directly on his body using the energy of the sword itself, it was a silver armor with black details, a pure cape darkness stretching behind ethereally.
He is still smiling but he is also not using his Divine Incarnation, this makes no sense and there can only be 2 reasons for this, he is playing with me due to overconfidence or he is planning something.
"(Something doesn't smell right here.)" (I)
"< Incarnation of Blood >" (I)
"< Holy Summon: Eclipse Sword >" (I)
I came towards him with a sword bigger than his body, but he met with his own sword, his speed was greater than mine as he passed to my side initiating an attack, his sword releasing waves of power that could have me injured, if it had hit me, my Dragon body splits and lets the sharp energy pass through before joining again, my entire body is now an Incarnation of blood having a completely liquid form.
His attack wasn't a concern if it didn't hit, it wouldn't be left unanswered either, a jet of blood is already around him before forming different fingers of my hands with claws pointed out trying to attack him from various directions.
He stands still in the air swinging his sword with monstrous speed while my own sword was heading towards him from a blind spot.
"< Destruction Demon Blade Wave >" (Zharif)
He points the sword downwards, recording it in space itself before sending a wave of black energy in all directions, when this wave of energy hit my body I felt my head become confused as I was thrown back.
He tried to take advantage of the situation to comply, but at that moment I was already reacting on instinct when my tail swept him aside, causing him to collide with the ground.
But with that, I got time to clear my mind and feel the sword energy more directly, it was chaos energy but it wasn't Natural like mine, the confusion in my mind was due to a sensation I felt for the first time while my brain was trying to understand.
When I finally managed to understand what that chaos energy was and its source, something primordial inside me lit up, I was furious and I finally understood what the Taboos were for the Gods, I also understood why the Gods had Taboo Hunters.
The sword was a Divine Weapon or more precisely, an "Almost" Divine Weapon, it absorbs souls that are the essence of creation and can harmonize with everything, and then it breaks these souls slowly within its sword while its victims' consciousnesses are still alive are linked to the Souls together within the sword, these Broken souls generate the opposite of harmony in their torment, chaos energy.
An energy made from the sacrifices of Souls, but this is not just a Taboo for me, using lives as a sacrifice in this way is certainly a Taboo for the Goddess of Life, also the act of destroying Souls as a sacrifice to gain power must be a Taboo to the Goddess of Death.
But I was just using this thought to calm myself down, I had to control the emotions inside me, I had to calm my fury.
"Looks like someone got pissed, so I guess they liked my sword... GHUH!!"(Zharif)
Before he could finish speaking, my fist covered in Starfire crossed space, converting the space between us into something changeable.
I have no idea how I did this and at that moment it was not my secularity to find out, the power of Chaos within me was as if it was raging, the Blood Essence I used for this incarnation transformation fell apart as the power of Chaos took my body.
I trained all this time trying to control the essence of the Blood which was something more familiar to me as I was born from the Blood and bathed in blood all my life, it was something easier for me to manipulate during my training, but now this same Essence of Blood fell asleep within me while the Essence of Chaos was bubbling in floods within me.
It was something instinctive and primitive, I didn't even know how I was doing it, but my scales gained depth as if they contained a field of stars inside, my wings were crystallized Starfire, and my entire body was covered in dark ethereal energy mixing with the environment in a natural way.
"You will wish for death!"(I)
My killing intent was not something that belonged only to me, I felt like I was channeling the killing intent of the universe itself that rejected what had been done with this sword.
I was the herald and spokesman of that will, I was the judge and my sword would be the executor of that punishment, the Eclipse Sword in my claws began to burn with Starfire as my focus on the opponent in front of me shifted to being a execution target.
No mercy!
No mercy!
No hesitation!
No forgiveness!
"RRRRROOOOAAAARRRRR!!!!"(I)
