Chaos Devourer System C.136 Absolute Domination

A silent ripple...

The world went deathly silent when suddenly Zeras raised his hands and it morphed into that of an inhumane claw with steel-like fingers before slashing at the space in front of Eliot.

The simple slash brought about a strange phenomenon as a ripple suddenly appeared in the air, quickly followed by another ripple, then another, then another.

Eliot's eyes almost popped out of his sockets as while the world only saw strange ripples in the air, what Eliot truly saw was a massive guillotine cleaving towards his neck.

He immediately stirred the Mana in him and poured it into his blade before slashing out towards the ripple.

KABOOOOOOOOOOM

A devasting explosion rocked the battle stage as strange white lines appeared in the air.

A figure was immediately sent reeling backwards from the attack bouncing continuously on the ground before slamming at the wall on the edge of the battle stage, just an inch from falling from it.

"What strength!..." Eliot's eyes widened to saucers as he hurriedly stood up but something shocking happened when blood began dripping out from the side of his mouth.

He had been injured internally in just a move...

His shocked eyes stared back at Zeras who slowly dropped down his hand as he looked at him with his emotionless gaze.

"You... You really are strong...If then let's see how you handle my blade slash." Eliot said madness in his eyes. He knew if Zeras had truly moved and made a true move, then he would no doubt have been sent flying out of the battle stage getting disqualified immediately. His only choice was his Sword art which has never before failed him.

"Norgodomev Art: Flaming Blue Star Slash" Eliot's katana, lit in blue light, slashed forward causing the phantom image of a gigantic beam of bladelight cleaving towards Zeras.

Zeras looked at the blade light, but he still didn't intend to move a single inch away from where he stood.

His left eye flared with an abyssal dark light beyond his knowledge as he slowly extended his right hand forward.

"Activate Absolute Morph"

With his genetic ability on, he imagined the hardest possible object he had ever come across, and that was the obsidian-like rock he came across in the Humban Tower.

With the clear image of the stone in his head, the transformation immediately began.

If anyone could see past Zera's flesh and view what was going on beneath, they would notice his hand bones began morphing as they gained a shade of black and their white color quickly disappeared, taking on fully the power of the obsidian blackrock.

Zeras morphed his bones to have the same structure and hardness as the rock with the power of his Absolute Morph Gene.

He wouldn't have been able to do this so easily before as it would have exhausted a lot of Mana, but with his Absolute Morph Gene increased to a grade C genetic ability, he could do this easily.

The entire world stared at Zera's wide mouth as they saw the gigantic blade light cleaving towards him and his motion of raising his right hand.

"Don't tell me he's planning on taking the full power of that attack head-on?"

"Has he gone mad?"

Even the top ten in the rankings had their eyes dilating in shock as even they knew their only shot at that attack was dodging or sending out an equally powerful attack of theirs, but Zeras wanted to take it in his fleshy palms.

Just what was he thinking?

A mocking smirk lined Eliot's face witnessing Zeras's motion.

'In the end, your arrogance is your end.'

BOOOOOOOOOM

The beam immediately slammed against Zera's palm causing a circular shockwave at the point of collision that rippled throughout the battle stage making the area where he was standing to sink in while dust erupted covering the sights of everyone.

Slowly, the dust cleared away and what was in front of them made all of them gasp in shock.

A young man could be seen standing on his feet, the ground below him enveloped in cracks while his outstretched palm held in place the phantom of the blade.

Zera's hair blew around the place wildly, feeling the extremely sharp blade Mana slowly chipping into his palm inch-by-inch, but his expression didn't change as he morphed his fingers into claws before turning them to the same structure of the obsidian rock and pinching into the blade phantom.

"CRRR..CRAAACK...CRAAAACK..." The sound of something slowly being shattered rang out clearly through the entire battle stage which was deadly silent at this point.

"CRACCCCCCCKKKK..."

The blade was completely enveloped in cracks and with a slight crack sound, it immediately shattered to pieces as the remaining energy disappeared into thin air.

The Monstrous Blue Star Slash has been nullified...

SHOCK!!!

Eliot immediately fell on his knees as he continually hacked up blood.

It won't be wrong to say the slash was directly tied to soul and it getting destroyed was like having half his heart crushed to pieces.

His katana immediately disappeared from his hands unable to manifest due to his completely drained Mana core.

Blood dripped down his head blinding his eyes, but uncaring of his bloody gaze, he gave one last look at the boy who was looking at him expressionlessly before clenching his teeth tightly in pain and disbelief.

He had lost and so easily so.

"I... I con..."

Immense airwaves erupted as cracks spread out from the area where Zeras stood and he disappeared.

"BANG..."

Eliot who was about to give up suddenly felt the air blowing chaotically around him and raised his head but what he saw was completely dark eyes with an even shade of eerily black point at its middle staring at him.

"You didn't think you could challenge me so openly and disrespectfully and it would end with you simply conceding, did you?" Zeras whispered with a sinister smile as Eliot's eyes widened in fear but in the next second, he was long gone.

Zetas grabbed hold of his face, griping him in his dark deathly claw before raising him from the ground and flinging him with all his strength forward.

Eliot's body became a flaming meteor as the intense friction of his body with the air caused him to erupt in flames.

The arena shook widely as a figure smashed into its wall, immediately ripping a hole and disappearing into the distance.

"Which one of you is next?"

The entire arena went silent as they looked at the massive hole in the arena wall and then back at Zeras who was standing on the battle stage, his air blowing erratically in the wind with his two hands clenched into a fist as he stood upright like a war god, staring dead straight at the remaining three challengers.

His words seemed like a blade cutting into the heart of every soul in the arena and making them pound wildly.

Who would have thought, the normally quiet and always smiling Number One cadet whose position even seemed like a joke to the New Cadets was actually this strong?

"He did all that with just his physical strength? I bet my life he's not a Physical strength awakener, so just how did he exert so much strength..." One of the instructors voiced out exactly what was running in the minds of all Instructors.

"Next, Zeras Celestria Vs Aildris Titanic..."
