Kael didn’t respond, but Jamie didn’t need them to.
"Of course, your Dictums weren’t empowered. Your Existence Declaration isn’t properly integrated into yourself.
After all, your current state is nothing but a shell of what you could have been.
A False Ultimate."
Kael’s eyes appeared on their face, spiralling irises filled with fury as they glared at Jamie and shouted.
|FALSE?!|
Power erupted from their body, expanding across the endless space as they demanded.
|YOU CALL THIS FALSE?!|
Jamie laughed dryly, shaking his head as he replied.
"You definitely have the power that cos with being an Ultimate."
He infused his power into the Galaxy Sword, and as it transford, Jamie continued, "But you definitely don’t have the Authority that cos with it."
Cosmic energy burst from the Galaxy Sword, power flowing into Jamie and out of the blade, and feeling it, Jamie spoke internally.
’I see. So I wasn’t even using half your power, Galaxy.’
[I was created to be wielded by Ultimates to fight against the end of all existence,] the Galaxy Sword responded. [It is impossible for anyone below the level of the Ultimate Realm to glimpse my true power.]
’What an arrogant blade you are,’ Jamie responded, raising the Galaxy Sword that now bore only the image of a single galaxy across its blade and pointing it at Kael.
Kael stared at Jamie with a silent frown, then raised their hand, their clawed fingers glowing as they spoke.
|You call yourself a living paradox.|
"What of it?" Jamie asked, one eyebrow raised.
Kael then declared, |Paradoxes are evidence of flaws. And I am the end of all flawed existences.
I am your collapse, Jamie Westley.|
Jamie, with a grin on his face, responded, |We’ll see about that.|
Imdiately, both of them unleashed manifestations of pure destruction that had no na, waves of cosmic energy clashing and nullifying one another.
Both combatants held endless reserves of cosmic energy, so they expressed their Dominions over reality without restraint, those Dominions transfiguring into supre states as they collided with the purest expressions of power.
Jamie gradually began to acclimatise to his new state, his speed increasing over and over again without end, while Kael accelerated at a pace that left the definition of speed itself behind.
The two used each other as footholds, learning to control their new power through one another as they fought, blade and claws colliding and separating millions of tis within seconds.
Each collision released impacts strong enough to erase universes and clusters of universes that ca together to make up a complex multiverse structure, where countless layered universe clusters intertwined through continuous expansion, collision, and separation across boundless space.
Jamie laughed as he swung his blade, eting Kael’s claws in a clash with all his might. A blast too violent to simply be called a shockwave was created, spreading across the vast Cosmos and travelling millions upon trillions of light-years, expanding outward as if without end.
Ignoring it entirely, Kael continued attacking Jamie, their claws raking toward Jamie’s body and rebounding off the Galaxy Sword again and again as they moved around each other in a circular path.
It wasn’t a flashy fight, but every swing of their arms carried destruction within it.
They exchanged blows that sounded like thunderclaps, and cracks ran through the surrounding space-ti, splintering reality to expose the void beneath, which was then imdiately sealed as their Fifth Concretizations transfigured the surrounding reality.
Jamie’s sword t Kael’s claws, and the two pushed against each other until one was forced away, imdiately returning within the next split of a nanosecond with an all-out attack that sent sparks scattering everywhere.
When Jamie released a Dinsional Severing Slash, Kael avoided it by breaking their body into grey fog fragnts for an instant, allowing the slash to pass through the gaps before pulling the fog back together and reforming just outside the slash’s path.
Kael then countered by swinging their arms, unleashing claw-shaped masses of grey energy that were already at their destination the mont they were released, and Jamie split them apart in a single slash with the Galaxy Sword.
The instant Kael’s grey energy claws dispersed, the space around them fractured across all dinsions, definitions of direction and causality collapsing as both Jamie and Kael moved through the hyperversal expanse with acceleration that no longer referenced distance in any aningful sense.
Jamie’s Aspect Dominion, the self-sustaining loop of Space and Void, expanded outward, creating a canvas of absolute stability wherever his blade travelled. Against it, Kael’s aura manifested as an eroding grey miasma of absolute finality, a conceptual solvent ant to dissolve any structure that possessed a boundary.
Kael lunged at Jamie, five clawed lines raking across Jamie’s vision, each claw carrying the concentrated conceptual weight of Kael’s Annihilation Concretization.
It wasn’t an attack ant to cut flesh and bone, but an order for the space containing Jamie’s existence to cease its definition.
The Galaxy Sword t the claws with an impact that generated no sound, but instead inverted the colours of the surrounding reality for a billion light-years in every direction.
Where Kael’s claws tore into Jamie’s space, fractures to the Void instantly opened, swallowing the annihilation whole and channelling it out of the Cosmos. In turn, the re presence of the Void triggered Jamie’s Space path, instantly repairing the local fabric of existence.
Their next exchange occurred without any observable transition, as Jamie’s blade was suddenly at Kael’s neck, simultaneously striking from all conceivable angles, and Kael’s claws intercepted not the blade itself but the intent behind its trajectory, collapsing multiple potential attack vectors into a single defensive resolution that manifested simultaneously across overlapping spatial probabilities.
The impact folded the surrounding space inward before snapping outward in a silent shockwave that bent the fabric of reality inward before snapping it back, leaving both forces locked in a montary recoil where neither attack nor defence fully prevailed.
Both of them released more cosmic energy without restraint, not because they needed it for output strength, but because their bodies no longer distinguished between reserve and expression, their power flowing continuously without end.
Kael’s body dissolved into a massive grey vortex of energy that instantly enveloped the surrounding space, pushing back Jamie’s Dominion as it tried to dissolve the space within reality he occupied, so he’d have nowhere left to exist.
Instead of pushing back with raw energy, Jamie opened his left palm and created micro-fractures in reality that acted like valves, pulling Kael’s eroding grey energy into the void beyond reality itself, neutralising the threat before it could even get close enough to be considered one.
|You—!|
Kael frowned as they realised what Jamie had done, shouting as they reford their humanoid body directly above him.
|Hiding behind your loops because you fear the END!|
Kael brought both hands down in a double-axe handle strike, their claws elongating into massive jagged blades that heralded finality. In response, Jamie swivelled his upper body in the weightless environnt, bringing the Galaxy Sword up to perfectly parry the strike, the collision between
Jamie’s Void and Kael’s Annihilation temporarily negating the influence of the Concept of Causality across the local hyperversal region.
The laws of ti and space soon stopped functioning in an orderly sequence. The impact of the blow occurred before the swing was completed, forming a recursive loop of shockwaves that blasted outward across the vacuum, reaching a distant multiverse and detonating a cluster of seedling universes near its edges like fireflies caught in a storm.
