Azief was dumbfounded for a moment and he almost laughed at that absurdity of the situations. Katarina just kissed her in probably one of the most dangerous battle she would ever encountered in her life.
But Azief did not hate it....not one bit
'HYARGH!'
She screams as her sword was enveloped by frost and cold aura that freezes the very air around her.
The red aura that come out from her famous five feet sword the Red Queen merged together with the ice energy creating a pure reddish aura that seems so sharp that it probably could even cut the Heavens and Earth apart, separating it by freezing the gap between them.
White clouds appears above her head as snows fall down and winter wind started blowing trying to repel the heat of the bombardment of thunderbolts.
She slash her way forward and a large ice energy covered millions of thunder bolts, rendering them frozen and falling to the ocean bed where they exploded underneath the sea when the ice melted.
The sea water surges up to the clouds like a chain bomb was executed below the ocean deep.
Katarina keep slashing at the thunderbolt but even if she slashes a million of them there is million more of thunderbolts coming down.
The whole world was shocked seeing this scene. Narleod seeing this scene on Storm Tide could not help but gulped in fear.
Beside him is Warp. He is also frowning seeing the scene. He has been frowning since the beginning of the battle.
Narleod was thinking of something else. If it was him being subjected to such torturous punishment he would have long turned into ashes and dust long before anyone could come to his rescue
Even Warp could not rescue him if he is in that situation. It is clear to the eyes of experts that the area around the Death Monarch is being sealed.
That prison of thunder is not a figurative statement.
Death Monarch is literally being imprisoned by the thunderbolts and lightning vines that connect the Heaven and Earth
If not the people who wanted to help the Death Monarch could just simply teleport themselves to the area. The space around the area of battle between Death Monarch and the Will of the World is too unstable with space breaking down and vortexes of void space around the battle site making teleportation almost impossible
This sentiment is not only present in Narleod hearts.
Of the many factions that is seeing the development of the battle from Sithulran being attacked until the Will of the World makes it move, each of the Death Monarch action set off storms in their hearts.
Who would have thought Death Monarch could summon such a gigantic Wheel that seems to bleed out the Heavens and pressure the Earth?
Who would have thought that when the Death Monarch decided to move out against Sithulran, the so called scourge of Earth is merely a plaything and unable to even move under Death Monarch suppression
Who would have thought that in the beginning of the battle the true battle was not Sithulran against Death Monarch but Death Monarch against the Heavens?
The whole world sees it and the whole world bear witness to the legend.
This is the man who could contend with the world by his lonesome, Death Monarch, matchless and peerless under the Heavens!
And if he wins today, even the Heavens would fear him!
And the scene of Katarina sweeping clean through millions of thunderbolts reaffirmed the title of the strongest woman in the world.
Azief the Death Monarch. Katarina the Ice Queen. Two of the strongest experts of the world is holding hand together against the Heavens.
If not for the seriousness of the matter one would surely write a book about this matter.
Meanwhile on the sky of South Atlantic Ocean, even though Katarina attack on the lightning bolts was successful but the red lightning itself was unaffected.
No matter how powerful her attack and her ice energy, the moment it touched the red thunderbolt they all collapsed; none of her attack were able to stop it for even a moment!
But Azief did not think much of it.
He only needed time. And now he has it.
His bleeding Palm is buzzing with absorbed energy as vortex of suction appears around him creating a space distortion around him that devours Space and the energy around it.
Azief eyes emit golden light with some faint blue.
The energy of Time seems to swirl around Azief palm and the area around Azief seems to be reverted back to its condition before it is being destroyed.
Space formed back and the wind corrected its course of direction.
'Argh!!!' The shout breaks Azief concentration as he saw Katarina is trying to force her way through amidst the thunderbolts to attack the red thunder bolt.
'NO!' Azief shouted as he uses his other hand to make a grasping motion.
The reserve energy in his body was use as his grasping motion affects the Laws of gravity and pulls Katarina backward to his side.
But the red thunderbolt is still rushing forward speedily and it is about to collide with Katarina
'NO!' Azief roars.
At that time he almost wanted to just let go of the Wheel and damn his own plan.
DONG!!!
A sound reminiscence of a bell being hit by a hammer reverberated across the sky.
Katarina is back on Azief arms, safe and sound and the red lightning is being pushed back. Amidst the scattering thunderbolts that look like fireworks in summer, a silhouette of a person floating in the sky could be seen
Someone is smiling at Azief. Azief frowned and he nodded at that man as a sign of gratitude. That man is Raymond and in his hand is his talking mace Sharur.
At that moment when Katarina is nearly colliding with the red lightning, Raymond who has already nearly arrived saw the dangerous situation from the distance and throws his mace to contend with the red thunderbolt.
He then rushes forward, mustering all of his speed and arrived in front of Katarina almost in a blink of an eye.
He pushes away Katarina towards Azief and then pushes his mace upwards, halting the descent of that red thunderbolt.
Up above in the sky, The Will of the World becomes angrier. It did not yet possess such intelligence to talk or take a form but one knows that it is angry.
The thunder above the sky rumbled loudly as a heaven shaking rumble surrounding the entire world. The Will of the World is going all out this time.
A shocking scene could be seen all over Earth.
A thunder prison caged the entire world and an endless thunder that strikes the Earth like it venting its anger.
The Will of the World is using all of its energy to exterminate Death Monarch. To the people of the world, they think this matter should not have been like this.
After all the Death Monarch summoned the Wheel to seal Sithulran, the enemy of the world, the joint enemy of the tripartite alliance of Pandemonium, World Government and the Republic.
But people forget that while the Will of the World while it is sentient it does not possess human intelligence.
At least the Will of the World did not yet possess such intelligence. To the Will of the World, Death Monarch was hostile to it and even usurps their existence.
The Will of the World does not care whether Death Monarch is apprehending the most dangerous alien in the Universe.
It only desires to exterminate this threat to its existence and power.
The thunderbolts in the sky all roared like an army of Celestial Soldiers that is about to execute demonic creatures.
This time the thunderbolts were summoned even more than before and Azief is no longer its only target.
This time they also attack Katarina and Raymond as explosion of golden light erupted in many parts of the sky, opening up countless of holes in the sky.
Katarina slashes all the thunderbolts coming down to attack Azief as snows fall down upon the ocean and frozen thunderbolts keep falling down like rain.
Raymond on the other hand is using Terraforce to endure the lightning bolts while making sure that the humongous conglomeration of red thunderbolt did not move forward.
The world was full of thunder today and three of the greatest men and woman in the world is right now fighting in a battle that will surely be recorded in history.
Everyone who is someone important and powerful in the world is watching at this battle intently.
Then why didn't they go out and aid Death Monarch?
It is not that there are no heroes among them. It is not that they didn't want to also rush to Death Monarch aid like Katarina and Raymond but they are too weak.
They are not even qualified to help and might even be a burden instead
Even before they reach Death Monarch they would probably be dead being strike upon by the millions of thunderbolts.
That is why the only thing those people could do right now is to cheer on Death Monarch in their hearts.
But as there are heroes that cheers for Death Monarch victory, there is also villains that wished him dead.
This time for real. Most of the crime family even prayed that this time this bane would finally be dead.
While the rest of the world is watching the battle, Azief on the other hand is finally getting the hang of the Wheel.
There is no longer flesh on the palm that is making the Wheel afloat. The pain should have been indescribable as thunder strikes him and the wind whistle by the gaps on his bones
But to Azief this is nothing more than a cut. He experience more terrible pain than this in the past
His palm could not regenerates as fast because the rate of destruction coming from the pressure of the heavens and the Wheels exceed his rate of regeneration.
He needs just a little bit more time.
'Haah, haah' Azief is panting right now but his eyes are still full of life. His body right is pushed to the limits.
This is the first time his body ever reached such a terrible state and when he should be solemn, he is smiling.
He is actually using the World Cleaving Palm to open back the rift in Space to send back the Wheel of Reincarnation.
His palm is now emitting blue aura and the clouds around him were affected as it turns ethereal and surrounded by bluish aura.
And the destruction energy is converging on his palm as the Time energy around his Palm is getting chaotic, reversing cause and effect.
He could feel that the energy is enough to open the rift and seal the Wheel of Reincarnation there.
'Heh' he smirked
