"Even in my realm, your obnoxious behavior is legendary. But it ends today."
"Co now. Can you really speak such bullshit before ?" I heard myself say, reaching deep into my core to where the Abyss resides. "I've survived so much worse, my friend. I even killed a full-power Eternal Fla God. You are but a construct generated by a Feather.
"I—"
"Pride, Wrath," I coldly said, shattering the endless void above our heads as two blades blacker than the deepest night forged by the Abyss congealed and fell within my palm.
I stared, poised for combat, as I felt my entire being turn cold. The sounds of glass shatter chid well over thirty-three tis as Noctem hovered behind , blazing with the shard of Laevatein.
"Your mad!" The Nephilim whispered, drawn to Noctem behind my back. "No Fourth tier being can handle such power!"
"The Fates have already dictated my survival. I can do whatever I please." I coldly rebutted, pointing Pride before the construct, pretending to be my equal. "The only question that remains is if you are willing to risk it. Clone or not. Your true body will forever be wounded with this defeat."
Light flickered through the Nephilim's eyes as he remained still.
"Battle Foresight. Careful Arsene. He's testing you." Lily uttered, and I knew what she ant.
I'd heard of Battle Foresight within the Archives of Bael. A fearso ability that allows you to perceive a shadow future with the intent of your opponent. One can have millions of simulations in a re instant. It's one of Nephilim's most prized abilities.
Unfortunately for him, phisto had given all that I needed. Show your cards, and I will bend your reality to my will. In the end, all that you showed with this foolish action was that you are a naive kid looking down on a god.
'Black Sabbath,' I whispered so softly to myself that not even the shadows of Tenebrae could hear .
"I'll help!" Lily chid in. " Neurolink establish. Installing CyberLink. Uploading… Uploading… Invasion Complete… Access 100%."
Watching a battle between the Nephilim and , a sensation of authority suddenly overwheld .
I don't know how phisto ca up with such an Arcane Spell, but it fell far too broken to exist. I had absolute control. Pride, Wrath, and Noctem gave the Divinity I needed, but for so reason, the more I used Black Sabbith…, the more I realized I didn't need Divinity… much less qi.
It was like an ability that directly went against everything I knew. It was beating the paradigm of the Myriad Heavens. It didn't require a price. At least… it didn't require a price at higher levels.
Bending everything I saw within the small screen reflected in my iris lily called a neuro link, I began to bend the battle to my will. Using my devil heart ability and Black Sabbath to the best of my ability, I bent reality to my will. I was essentially carving reality from out of the Heavenly Father's hand and into mine.
It was no wonder not even the Father approved of this ability.
By the ti the light of Foresight had faded from the Nephilim, I was directly in front of him, wrapped in the Aura of Black Sabbath.
Pride hissed like a devouring star as Iluthath began to rot and burn practically simultaneously. Yet, as I willed it, the execution of Ilutahth was halted to my will, practically frozen in place as my spear reached the Nephilim's neck.
Darkness and Abyss swallowed Heaven and Earth, sending us spiraling through subspace as the Nepelilm barely managed to parry my blow, losing an entire arm in the process.
But that wasn't enough! Knowing what I needed to do, I flipped Wrath from a standard grip into the reverse grip and swept my blade up into a semi-circle cutting through his chest and shoulder as blood washed over .
Howls resounded through the streaking Abyss of stars whipping by as we fell through subspace.
Suddenly blood erupted from our flesh as sothing invisible struck against our bodies. Hidden from our perception in this zone of hyperspace, a nebula of stardust flashed over our eyes as the faint outline of a starship hitting us appeared through our eyes.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~
Dazed by the blow that blasted out of subspace, I tumbled over dozens of mountains and into a cold icy lake. I felt my lungs burn and rupture as I gasped for air. Struggling to even stand by the sudden blow that took both of us by surprise.
"Fuck!" I grunted, staggering to my feet. I spat another mouthful of blood and snapped my eyes toward my surroundings.
[DING]
[WELCO TO THE BADLANDS]
Eh? Oh shit!
"He's coming to Arsene!" Lily shouted, and with a beautiful twist of Noctem and Pride, alongside the will of Black Sabbath to bend reality to my will, a clash ruptured through the land of the Badlands, turning whatever world we were upon to stardust.
Ash spilled into my mouth as I stared with poised eyes toward the Nephilim, glaring with absolute wonder and rage.
"HOW! WHO ARE YOU!"
"I am your Father, Boy!" I howled, empowering the Spear of Noctem with the Shard of Laevatein. I blasted the Nephilim out of my sight, tearing off his other arm as he was sent flying like a prismatic star.
I followed. Not allowing the Nephilim to catch a breath, much less think. I Shadowed Stepped into his path and ran Wrath through his chest, cutting out his fucking heart before he could even think. But I was far from done. In that sa mont, as Wrath tore through his heart, Pride ran through his head, removing any consciousness of thought.
Billions of thoughts generated from my soul rattled through my Hive Mind. And with a calm chilling mind, I stared down at the aftermath and backed away with a stoic expression as the blood of this thing hovered around the dozens of dead laws.
"Is he dead?"
"Black Sabbath is the purest Arcane to Sin. Will his death, and it shall be." Replied Lily softly. "In this state… You are King Arsene."
"What a wonderful display! Disciple! A wonderful display indeed! I see you've finally begun to use Black Sabbath! Have you finally figured out why even Belphegor wanted to see it? It is my Pride and joy! And you are the second being in all of creation to use it!"
