Chapter 33, Two Against One
----------------------------------------
…
Hundreds of billions of lightyears away…
"Your friend has lost." A voice announced to two creatures before him.
"Akatosh was it? He called himself a World Eater…" He spoke, the two before him widening their eyes.
"Akatosh lost?" Midas glanced at Agustus, worry filling his mind.
"Unfortunately he is still living, but he is definitely on the brink." The tall, porcelain skinned, white haired young man spoke.
"He held out surprisingly well, he even managed to defeat my weaker clone! I commend you guys for being so strong." Julius praised, a smile on his face.
"Though I'm sure I'd be much stronger if I had millions of years to progress like you guys…" He pondered.
"Enough talking." Agustus said, a green Aspect sword manifesting in her hand.
"[Mark of the Demented]." She said, a dark essence shooting out of the tip of the sword.
"[Skin of Royalty]." He said, the dark energy dispersing before it could reach him.
"It entertains me to think you people assume you have the authority to touch me as you please." Julius smiled, his head tilting while his arms crossed.
"[Fireball]." An arm came uncrossed and a small particle of fire levitated above his fingertip.
"This is one of my stronger bodies, so I'll refrain from going all out." Julius said, watching as the two charged their Law essences within their origin.
It amused him, seeing they thought he would be unable to do something as simple as glancing at the circulation of their energies.
'A Time Skill is it?' He chuckled in his mind, letting them proceed.
Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
"[Amplification]." He spoke, the small particle growing slightly and burning hotter.
"[Condense]."
"[Poison]."
"[Empower]."
He cast many amplifying skills, increasing the strength of the fireball as the two watched.
"Well, I hope this feels good." He smiled flicking the fireball towards to the two.
But as he did so, everything in the immediate area froze, even him.
"He talks too much." Agustus said.
"Hurry, his ability to control time cannot be as deep as mine, but I'm sure it won't take long for him to awaken." Midas responded, Agustus nodding.
"[Pressure]."
"[Spatial Rip]."
"[Age Acceleration]."
"[Multilayered Inner Turmoil]."
"[Destruction]."
"[Apocalyptic Ruin]."
"…"
Countless skills were cast, many essences paused in time, aiming towards Julius.
Unbeknownst to them, the skill had never even worked on him.
'Did you truly think I wouldn't have become proficient in the Time Law?… You underestimate me.' He spoke in his mind.
He was preparing to reveal himself, when he felt an over abundance of essence circulating from the both.
'I know this one!' He smiled mentally, casting multiple Skills silently.
'[Lord of Reality].'
'[Indomitable Human Spirit].'
'[Mortal Right].'
'[Lawful Erasure].' With all the skills cast, an incredible amount of energies welled up within his origin, the two Gods feeling the fluctuations at the last moment.
"[Apocalypse]!" They both yelled, the dark energy shooting towards Julius as he broke free of the shackled time, his attacks firing off.
BOOOM!!
The bombardment of attacks collided with Julius' spirit, disappearing in an instant as an invisible wave of essence completely obliterated all their attacks.
"My apologies, this might have been too much." As Julius said this, the powerful wave of essence ran through Agustus and Midas, destroying their origins.
"…"
The two died in an instant.
"Hmm… Three down it seems."

…
In another corner of reality…
"You were a powerful one." Revenant stood on a corpse of Julius, his battalion standing far behind him as they had never even made a move.
Revenant's gaze pierced through Julius' existence, examining him and the army of trillions he had just slaughtered.
"A clone are you? Well played Shiva." He spoke, turning back to his army.
"Though it is no matter, you are not the only one with this ability." Revenant tossed the severed hand he was carrying, a black smoke twirling from his finger tips.
"[Apocryphal Devouring]." The smoke absorbed every piece of Julius' level 14 clone, and all the lesser level 13's.
"The rest of you, dig in. I am moving out, you will all go assist the God of Sanguine Madness once you have finished." Revenant said, the army of trillions flying towards the sea of corpses now that they were unrestrained.
"It seems I alone was overkill."
