As Oberon was forced to undo his self-destruction, his body remade itself, albeit fragmented and falling apart, he didn't even have the same amount of strength as before.

All while Drake was still discovering all the power within him!

"How are you...! How are you surviving the void directly sent to your soul?! This should not be possible! Even if you copied my powers, yours are much lesser than mine!"

"Maybe that's the case..." Drake answered as his body was being constantly attacked by void, but endlessly regenerating. "But to begin with, you should have never underestimated a Venerable, Oberon."

"You're not a Venerable, you're nothing but a pathetic lizard!" Oberon lost all his temper. "Don't you dare say you're a Venerable, when you have not even lived millions of years of solitude, when you have never lived millions of years desiring the impossible! You're a pathetic excuse of a- GUUAGH?!"

CRAAASH!

Suddenly, a huge, crimson-colored hand materialized in front of Drake, it was Pandemonium's hand and his three fingers that he had eaten, it manifested out of nowhere as a gigantic body part, grasping Oberon's mouth and tightly pressing it.

"Shut up."

"Wait! Is this how he was able to momentarily stop the void?!" Oberon thought. "T-Then that means he has Pandemonium's...!"

"Disappear!"

With his thunderous voice, Drake unleashed a storm of winds and vibrations, shattering the void itself around him and rapidly beginning to diminish Oberon's aura and growing domain entirely.

TRUUUMMM!!!

And this power came from nowhere else but his chest, where one of Pandemonium's lungs resided, granting his voice, and any winds generated from his mouth to gain tremendous power.

RUMBLE!

"Nnnggh...!"

Oberon kept trying to resist the tremendous shockwaves, winds, and vibrations, but the void around him began to rapidly detach from him, making him grow weaker over time!

And in that moment, Drake materialized two glistening blades, made by combining his spirits and weapons together with his abilities and powers...

Each blade encompassed one aspect of the elements he understood and had an affinity with, one shining brightly with golden and white light, while the other being of a pitch-black color, exuding an aura of void.

"{Spiritual Divine Venerable Weapons}: {Dual Blades of Yin and Yang}"

FLASH!

Stepping into space itself, Drake's gigantic body reached Oberon, as the fragmenting, dying fairy king roared back, clashing against his attacks with whatever remaining strength he had.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"Arggh!"

However, Oberon quickly realized that each of Drake's attacks using those blades cut through his soul, even to the point of dividing his powers.

To make things worse, his senses were on point, completely ascended to another level entirely, each blow that Oberon attempted to do to surprise Drake was easily caught and then blocked or parried back.

CRAAASH!

Using his void arms, Oberon tried resisting the blows, attempting to grab one of the swords and then shatter it to surprise Drake.

However.

"No, I don't think that'll happen."

SLAAASH! SLAAASH!

"STOOOP!"

CRUUUNCH!

Oberon died in agony as he was bitten apart and torn to shreds, eaten, and swallowed, as his very existence quickly dissolved and became Drake's powers, his domain collapsed in that moment, as the eternal darkness that his void was covering everything with finally ended.

"Hahhh... Hahhh..."

Drake quickly fell to the ground below, his transformation quickly deactivating as he went back to his humanoid form, feeling completely exhausted beyond belief.

"I-I did it..." he looked at his family approaching him.

He smiled for a bit, before realizing they still looked alarmed, screaming to him.

"DRAKE! RUN! GET OUT OF THERE!"

"Huh?"

Drake felt something behind him.

In that very moment where he was at his weakest after such an intense fight.

He was there.

A red-skinned demon.

Right behind him, just ten meters from him.

"Pandemonium?!"

"You did well..."

However, instead of directly attacking him at his weakest, Pandemonium smiled back at him, crossing his arms.

"I hated him."

Drake quickly stood up, unleashing his Divine Aura, and trying to set on a defensive stance.

"Heh..."

Pandemonium smiled back at Drake.

For a moment, the two glanced at each other's eyes.

"Why isn't he attacking me? Is he waiting for me to lower my guard even more? No... he lost the opportunity already!"

Drake didn't know how to even react to this situation.

"I got my Treasures; I don't care about anything else anymore. Go rest. Our fight is somewhere else," Pandemonium said. "I would prefer you at your full power, so I can crush you completely and utterly. It wouldn't sit right with me to fight a weakened version of yourself, even less right after you killed someone I really hated. If anything, I'm grateful."

With a cocky smile, Pandemonium walked away.

Was it pride?

Compassion?

Mercy?

Or... camaraderie between fellow warriors?

For that very moment, Drake's whole view of Pandemonium changed.

"He let me live?"
