[Author Note: If you read both Undying Warlord and Odyssey of the Blind God, don't trouble yourself by reading the sa scenario twice, and skip it for one Novel...or pay twice ;D]
The last two ssages that appeared were too long to be read and it took both Dilan and Nial a while before they began to move.
Dilan's body shot forward with terrific power he shouldn't be able to reach his Tier. He was an Ascender at the Peak of the 3rd Tier, and not so sort of Demi God, after all! Nonetheless, he was able to reach his current speed by exerting the movent technique that allowed him to control and manifest winds outside and within his feet.
His boots burst apart and his speed seed to accelerate even further.
However, Nial didn't show a sign of surprise. He lifted his empty left hand and changed his stance lightly while pushing the spear in his right hand to the back. The corners of his lips tilted upward as he activated the Vengeance of Chaos Ability.
The pressure being exerted in the arena changed all of a sudden, and the arena's ground began to tremble violently. Despite the tremoring ground and the dangers that awaited Dilan, he didn't slow down his advance and confidently erged in front of Nial.
Nial ignored the tremors around him as well. His focus was on the grayish currents that had erged from his arm after activating the Vengeance of Chaos ability. The Chaos currents were both in a gaseous and liquid state and they easily passed through the fabric of Nial's combat clothes.
Upon noticing Dilan's advance, Nial quickly inserted Essence of Darkness and crimson moonlight inside his Chaos, changing its color drastically.
Nial visualized Dilan and he could tell that the Undying was mildly surprised but not completely taken off-guard.
Nial clenched his left hand and he voiced out a command in a tone that didn't allow anyone to disobey.
"Burst."
Dilan was not too far from his opponent and he felt an imdiate effect.
'This basta–...' Dilan thought as he felt his heart getting twisted, and compressed. Dilan's speed slowed down at once and he ended up standing still when his heart burst open like a balloon.
There was no loud explosion, just a huge gaping hole in the Undying's chest with blood flowing down his chest.
'Nobody can actually die during this battle, so killing him should be fine, right?'
That was the thought Nial had in mind when facing the Undying. The Oracle said that nobody would die in the Colosseum. Nial thought that this was more than enough reassurance for him to employ a lethal tactic.
Dilan fell to his knees and blood gushed out of the gaping hole in his chest, covering the horrifying mass of mangled flesh that could be found underneath the fountain of blood.
anwhile, Nial's arm writhed in pain. He grit his teeth while forcing himself to smile. The result of his attack was more than satisfying and befuddled the Oracle who hadn't expected the Undying to end up kneeling on the ground rely a second after the battle between the two Fate Changers began.
At least, that was what Nial figured when he visualized the expression on the Oracle's face.
Nial nodded his head and he made the grave mistake of not realizing that the fight was not yet over.
"That was ea–.." He had begun just before he froze in his tracks. Sothing was wrong!!
The mont Nial noticed that sothing was wrong, Dilan's head flicked upward. His sky-blue eyes shone brightly as he smiled at Nial with eyes that were overflowing with ecstasy.
'A Battle Maniac?' Nial thought instinctively as he visualized the way the Undying's heart was regrowing.
That was insane. He had never visualized anyone regenerating that quickly, let alone a vital organ such as the heart.
How was it even possible for Dilan to move while his heart was regenerating?!
"The Power of Chaos, huh?" Dilan asked at this mont while shooting forward with a simple push from the ground. He didn't even expect to hear an answer to his question as he continued to exert his movent technique. Strong wind currents shrouded Dilan's entire body to further accelerate his already shocking speed.
As for the gaping hole in his chest, it had disappeared completely.
The distance between Nial and Dilan decreased rapidly. There were only a few ters between them when Dilan realized that Nial's stance hadn't changed yet.
'Didn't Damian say that his physical abilities are worse than mine? Did that bastard lie to !? And how the hell is soone at the third Tier supposed to be that strong? If all Ascenders are like that, I want to be one as well!' Nial cursed in his mind as he issued another command.
"Slice."
More currents of Nial's Chaos were used up to do whatever the Eternal Darkness wished to happen. But that did not an that he himself was unscathed. Thus, trendous pain spread through his entire body, especially his arm. Nial's left arm looked like it would twist itself as his veins and muscles protruded through his skin. It was a ghastly sight for those who were not accustod to seeing twisted arms, or to even imagining the trendous pain he must be going through.
Dilan noticed that Nial was in trendous pain because he was not blind, but he could hardly worry about Nial's pain, let alone make use of it.
He felt a sting across his neck, which was why he moved his empty hand almost instinctively.
Dilan's head was sliced off just a mont later, and it was just about to fly through the air when Dilan's free hand reached for it. He grasped his own head and placed it back on his neck where freely moving threads of skin, flesh, and bone were already waiting for the head to sew it back.
"Surprise!" Dilan shouted out loudly while taking the final steps toward Nial.
However, Nial didn't seem to be all that bothered about Dilan's approach. On the contrary, it was an interesting experience to fight against soone, who could heal as fast as Dilan. The experience was worth going through, whether it was just a one-ti thing in the City of Trials, for his secondary Godly Mission, or sothing else.
"Burst!" Nial ordered loudly, and Dilan's head burst open like a waterlon just as commanded.
'That will give so ti!' Nial told himself while gritting his teeth under the imnse pain his body when through.
Even after advancing to the Deux rank, the Power of Chaos was still too much for him too handle. That had been the case after it had been enhanced by the Essence of Darkness and the crimson moonlight of the Blood Eclipse Moon ability.
Nial was certain that he would have less problems with the Chaos as long as it was used without any amplifications but he could not be certain that his Chaos was powerful enough to obliterate Dilan for good.
Not even the reinforced Chaos seed to be strong enough.
Things got even worse for Nial when he realized that Dilan didn't stop moving even after his head burst apart.
Even His blown up head was not enough to stop Dilan from moving.
'What the hell are you?! A Dullahan or what??'
