[World Authority: Stretched Void!]
One of the puppets flew at an extremely high speed and swung its sword at Ashtel.
As he swung his sword, he used the world authority to stretch the void and move himself faster from one distance to another by stretching the void towards himself.
The sword attack was extremely fast and precise; it had enough power to shatter an entire small moon in two with just one swing.
*BOOOM!*
Yet, when that sword swing was just a few centimeters away from Ashtel, it hit some kind of invisible barrier and couldn't move further anymore.
Ashtel glanced at the other party and shook his head in disappointment.
"You don't even have 'Sword Intent', yet you still think you will be able to do some damage to me? Go away, learn a legendary skill in the next life before thinking about fighting me..."
[Sage Art: Shattered Light: Broken Moon!]
Ashtel ignored the other party's sword swings and punched with extreme momentum.
His punch was so strong that other SS-rankers in the vicinity couldn't react in time to save their friend, and it landed before they could even react.
*BOOOM!*
The entire upper torse of the SS-ranker burst apart, and even his sword got shattered to pieces in a matter of seconds.
"Yeah, if had sword intent, you could have at least passed through my defense... But well, if you really had a legendary skill, then you wouldn't have been others's puppets, I guess..."
"Quite the dilemma, right?"
Seeing Ashtel so relaxed and laid back, Neo gritted his teeth in irritation.
'He's playing around on purpose! In fact, he's already sensed that I am planning something bigger, but he doesn't care! He's waiting for the real show!'
'This guy... He's too arrogant!'
[World Authority: Mana Flow!]
Using his world authority, Neo increased the mana flow towards himself in the area and then waved his hand and started to summon.
[Summon: Death Parade!]
Just like Neo had done with Idri, he summoned an insane number of beasts, gigantic bone titans, and huge demonized whalelike creatures that could float in the space.
He could have summoned more, but there's no solid ground here right now, unlike in the Dragon Valley, so the weaker summons won't do; only the highest-level summons that can fly in space will work here.
[World Authority: Buffed Arcane!]
One of the puppet SS-rankers used their world authority 'Buffed Arcane' to enhance all types of skills and techniques effects used by the summons of Neo.
This world authority is one of the greatest boosts that a summoner can get.
Just with this, even the weakest summon can fight a summon that's a hundred times stronger than its original version!
[World Authority: Vital Rush!]
Another SS-ranker enhanced the maximum vitality of all the summons so as to improve their tenacity.
Moreover, the world authority burned a small amount of vitality to give more boosts to the physical stats of the summons.
If it were against an army of a nation, this death parade of Neo would have been extremely devastating.
It would have been such a powerful army that it could put even the armies of powerful nations to shame with its sheer size and power.
However, the battle they are currently engaged in is not against feeble armies, but against Ashtel Rex!
"Are you serious right now... Do you really think summoning thousands of insects will harm me in any way?"
Ashtel couldn't help but rub his temples at this scene.
"Even the combined attack of 13 SS-rankers didn't do much, and you still dare summon these bulsh*t's in front of me..."
"Is this all you have left in your arsenal, Neo? What about your plan of completely defeating me?"
"Man, I am getting bored now... Forget it; I don't feel like playing with you..."
When you are in a hurry and want to destroy an entire army without putting much effort into dealing with each and every enemy soldier, what would be the most effective method?
To this question, Ashtel's answer was extremely simple: 'Shatter the entire cosmos around the army! Shatter everything till there's none left!'
[World Authority: Shockwave!]
[Sage Art: Shockwave Manipulation: Shattered Cosmos!]
The remaining 10 SS-rank puppets moved away fast after following Neo orders, yet a few of them were still caught up in the attack.
Ashtel raised his fist, and as if he were breaking a fragile piece of glass, he punched the void and shattered the space-time fabric.
*BOOOM!**CRACK!*
An extremely powerful gravitational shockwave spread out using the space-time fabric as a medium, and the cracks in the void widened in a matter of nanoseconds!
Ashtel didn't only hit the enemy; he directly shattered the void that the enemies were in and reduced them all to 'Null' in a mere nanosecond.
With a single punch, he created such a massive hole in the space that it was enough to fit a planet as big as Jupiter easily!
Neo's summoned armies didn't even have the time to react before they killed and got reduced
to absolute nothingness.
It was pure horror.
Ashtel not only killed an army of millions in a matter of nanoseconds; he even killed three SS- rankers nearby who weren't able to escape on time and reduced them to nothingness along with those summoned beasts.
For allies, Ashtel is the savior god, but right now, for his enemies, Ashtel looks nothing but a terror incarnate!
Originally there were 13 of them, but now only 8 are left, including Neo, and Ashtel hasn't even suffered a single scratch on his skin yet.
"Bah, you guys are so weak and fragile! I thought you would rush out and survive this attack
at the least!"
Ashtel glanced at the group of surviving SS-rankers with his arms crossed and shook his head in great disappointment.
"What? Do you guys have nothing else left to show me... Come on, I am waiting; show me your most powerful attacks. After I am done with you guys, I still have to go back and do some
paperwork..."
As if Ashtel's words were the very words of the devil himself, those puppets gained their
minds back in that moment of life and death, under extreme fear, and broke away from Neo's
mind control!
"NOO! I-I DON'T want to die here!! I am leaving!"
"R-run!! This guy is a monster!!"
"I-I DON'T care about fighting anymore! It's pointless!!"
All the remaining seven puppets immediately started to open portals to run away.
They knew that if they stayed here, they would definitely die a pointless death like the rest, who were reduced to nothingness in a matter of nanoseconds!!
Ashtel has many titles to his name; one of them is 'Horror incarnate'... It's because even demons run away in fear-that is how much of a horror his existence brings!
He's a walking black hole; nothing that opposes him can live and escape from his grasp, an unbeatable entity that maintains the law and order in the world while being impartial with
everyone!
For evil, he's the symbol of fear; for the weak, he's the pillar of light and symbol of hope and
justice.
"Well, you finally figured out why they call me Ashtel 'The Dominator'? It's because I rule over fear and kindness both... quite a balanced concept, right?"
At that moment, the smile on Ashtel's face turned stiff, and a look of seriousness appeared in
his eyes.
"But, did I allow you guys to run?"
[World Authority: Shockwave!] [Sage Art: Repulsion Type: Matter]
[Fool Art: Acceptance Type: Anti-Matter]
At that moment, as if the world had gone still, everything lost its will to move; even the
portals opened by the SS-rankers to escape stopped working, and a sense of extreme dread
spread in the entire solar system.
It was pure insanity; it was pure chaos; it was extreme horror.
[Cosmic Martial Law: Gentle Death: Black Hole!] Ashtel pointed his finger toward above and summoned absolute destruction.
The space-time fabric was bent to the point it broke apart, and the gravity was increased to
the point that it pierced a permanent hole in the fabric of reality.
This insane dread, this feeling of being extremely powerless-this is the existence of a 'Black
hole'.
There's nothing back and front; it's just absolute null.
The SS-rankers tried to use their world authorities, but to their horror, it was pointless. With
looks of extreme horror, their bodies were stretched out like spaghetti and merged with the
black hole.
In just one attack, Ashtel killed off all seven remaining SS-rankers like he was swatting some flies with the back of his hand.
Only at that moment did Neo realize what kind of horror he was fighting against.
Up until now, Ashtel wasn't using his real martial art; from the start, he was only using a
small 'part' of his martial technique.
His martial technique is 'Cosmic Martial Law', yet he was only using 'Sage Art' until now; that was just a small part of the entire martial art.
Yet this small part was enough to show absolute dread to them all and push them all to the
point of complete loss.
Only when he showed his true martial art did Neo realize how big the gap between them was.
"It's beautiful..."
Those were the only words Neo could think of in that moment.
A massive black hole rotating above his head, justice on his right and death on his left arm,
stars shining in the back, focusing and increasing his beauty.
From Neo's point of view, that existence in front of him seemed the real embodiment of
Divinity.
Just looking at him gives you the feeling of wanting to worship him.
With that shine in his eyes, Neo's 'body' was also absorbed by the black hole and 'erased' from
existence in that small timeframe.
'Hmm... His soul escaped from his body? Forbidden magic?'
