"Did you really think this fight would be that easy?"

Speaking up, right when the two opposing forces clashed, this damned man disappeared from his position at speed far greater than what he used to avoid my previous attack. Only thanks to fully entrusting my body to my predator's sense did I manage to avoid a sharp attack to my kidneys that this fucker executed after appearing behind me.

What I didn't realise though, was that this hit wasn't aimed at hurting me at all. All it did was push me closer towards the point where the two kinds of forces started clashing against each other right now.

"So that wasn't your full strength, huh?"

Feeling the impulse of energy approaching, instead of preparing my defences to repel it… I simply relaxed and allow it to pass through me. As destructive as it was, this kind of thing could be called to be an EMP of the magic world. With a wave of energy rapidly turning into the void only to break up to the opposite energy to what it was before, as long as I allowed for it to simply pass over my body, no harm should come my way.

And just like I thought, I didn't feel hurt at all when something that I didn't foresee happened.

In this one instant during which my entire body was in the potentially charged state, all the cells of my entire self turned to be a part of the void. Of the perfectly stable magic that by itself, didn't hold any energy at all. In this one moment, despite all the insane abilities that I learned and gained in other ways, I turned to a simple mortal.

Right now, even a bullet from a low calibre pistol would be easily capable of killing me, something that I wouldn't even notice with even a fraction of my usual strength. Yet when compared to how the man reacted to this outburst of the highly charged magical energy, I lost all the right to complain.

Just like most of the immortals, this Katenari patriarch followed the idea of ditching away all the energy and turning towards the entropy. In my case, my body was long used to both states of energy, be it positive or negative. But in the case of my opponent…

"ARGH!"

A loud shriek was the one thing that seemed to remain form this old fucker. Watching how a mist that used to serve a role of Eve's father body was now falling to the ground as the sound of his last scream faded away, I almost dared to turn away.

Thankfully, my instincts no longer were mine alone. With all alarms going off in my mind, it was my predator's sense that was the first to react.

"TAKE THIS!"

This time, Eve's father voice was clearly infuriated. At first, a sudden flash of positive energy appeared, only to quickly recombine all the particles of that fucker shattered body back to its previous shape. Before he could even form his body properly, a violent wave of positive energy came my way, threatening to deal some serious damage…

If only I was still in my mortal state. But that wasn't the case. The void's peak of the energy wave wasn't all that thick, allowing me to feel all my energy getting inversed after it passed. Yet, contrary to that middle-aged man, I was perfectly used to operating with both positive and negative energy!

Dealing with the weak attack of the man with a single swipe of my hand, I prepared myself for the words. Casting a quick glance to the side, I wanted to make sure that Eve was already getting better…

Only to see her holding tightly to the railing, clearly about to lose her consciousness.

"Fuck…"

In this one moment, a lapse in my attention appeared. And my opponent would never reach the position that he had if he would dare to miss such an opportunity!

Crack!

Feeling the bones in my jaw breaking when this reformed fist of my opponent slammed against my cheek like a war hammer, it took me a while to notice what the heck was going on. With the images of the arena flashing before my eyes, even with the support of the predator's sense I was unable to make any sense out of them… Before a sudden explosion of pain in my spine announced the end of my flight.

Crashing into the ground, I finally managed to realise just what kind of enormous force that man had to possess to break through all my passive defences at once and still have enough steam to spare to deal such a devastating blow!

"Fuck…"

At the same time, the fury at myself that I felt for allowing for such an obvious attack to connect nearly overtook my senses, only to clash with the insane worry about Eve who was getting weaker and weaker with every second, only for those two feelings to unite when I managed to lock my eyes on the cause behind both of those feelings.

While I was forced to turn respectful towards what that man represented, it didn't escape my attention that after executing such a powerful attack, he was heavily panting as is he just ran along the entire length of the equator twice.

"Fuck it. Let's end it."

Forcing myself up, I didn't dare to let the man out of my sight even for a moment. Reaching with my hand towards my chest, I couldn't help but realise that it was actually covered in blood?!

But how?

I was smacked hard in the face, so where did the blood on my chest come from?

In this another moment of plain shock, I reached up to my face, only to realise that the bottom half of my jaw was missing while the blood continued to profusely flow down from the huge wound.

An injury easy to heal, but extremely dangerous to keep fighting with.

Even with my mind already being set at not holding back at all, noticing the humiliating effects of the attack that I suffered only made my mind darken even further.

"Apocalyptic class…"

Uttering the words gently under my breath, I ignored all the red alerts going off in my conscious head. With my emotions powerful enough to cancel the effects of my predator's sense, I turned completely defenceless against the quickly appearing onslaught of attacks���

But not even a single one managed to reach my skin. Previously, when I used an apocalyptic class spell in a fight, I infused it with all the magic that I had. And right now I was doing the same, with the one small difference resting on the fact that contrary to that single fight at the Makay's mansion, I was now filled to the brim with the positive energy!

"... shatter type…"

With the energy around me condensing to the point where it turned into an aura so thick that even the strongest attacks of Eve's father were unable to penetrate it, I couldn't help but feel a bit scared about the doom-worthy spell that I was bringing to this world. But at this point, I was no longer capable of stopping it. Just the energy coursing through my entire body alone was enough to bring the remaining gestures and words necessary to properly cast the spell to its fruition.

"... Doombringer."

With all this dense magic instantly sucked to the palm of my right hand, it was instantly condensed into a ball of light hiding within my closed hand. And then I simply relaxed my fingers, allowing them to reveal this strange entity of magic.

In this single, particular moment, Eve's father had to feel that something was about to happen. Standing right in front of me with his hand-pulled to the back in an attempt to use the disappearance of this defensive aura of mine… when he suddenly jumped all the way back to the border of the arena. Shielding himself with what looked an endless amount of thin and weak strands that only pretended to be proper shields, he looked at me with a happy look on his face.

"Once you are done with that single powerful spell of yours, I will use your life to finally ascend! But you can be sure that I will kill that bitch daughter of mine before I do, hahahahaha!"

Openly ridiculing and provoking me wouldn't work anymore. After all, with all my magic washed away off my body, I didn't feel any stronger than a simple man in the face of a God.

The one thing that stood for me though, was that I held a power way stronger than said god in my right hand. And I finally opened my fingers up.

There was no sound that could indicate the destruction. No shockwave travelling through the air. Or rather, after just a hint of a distant and too powerful to be possible roar, everything silenced down. And as if the time was slowed down for me to be able to perceive the journey's of the light, I could watch how the stuff that used to be in front of me, simply stopped reflecting any light.

In one moment, this insane spell of mine simply eradicated the reality from a huge cone in front of me, reaching far further than my eyes could reach.

As if some higher being took a knife and carved out a huge chunk of the universe, of the planet and of the city alike, before throwing it somewhere away.

Turning around, I cast a quick gaze at Eve. Thankfully, with the death of her father, she seemed to slowly recover her strength. Taking a step towards her, I reached forth with my hand.

"Eve, are you…"

Before I could finish my words, I finally could hear it. The roar of the world-ending amount of energy finally reached my eyes.

Just at the same time as the hole in the universe that I created sucked me up, replacing my last chance to look at my wife, with nothing but eternal darkness.
