166 Satan's Nightmare - 02
BOOOOOM!!
A thunderous explosion resounded, akin to a mountain-sized meteor plummeting from the heavens, engulfing the demonic corpses in a scorching inferno. As for Satan, still reeling from disbelief, he was sent hurtling backward at an incredible speed, feeling as though a whole mountain had crushed his face.
Desperate to regain control, Satan swiftly unfurled his wings, attempting to resist the force of the punch. But to his horror, a long chain of light, forged from ancient Greek symbols, coiled around him, sealing away all his power.
"What!?" Satan blurted out, shocked that someone could actually seal his immense power.
Before he could react, Daniel materialized before him with astonishing speed, even taking Satan by surprise. The sonic boom generated by his speed obliterated the ground and the surrounding mountain of corpses.
BOOOM!
Another devastating blow landed on Satan's skull, driving him mercilessly into the ground before he could comprehend what was happening. The excruciating pain of his skull being crushed surged through him, but Satan was helpless, his power entirely sealed away.
In this world, sealing magical power was relatively straightforward, but attempting to seal the power within supernatural beings like angels or demons was considered nearly impossible. Their power was intricately woven into their entire being, inseparable like a human's heart that cannot be removed and expected to sustain life.
While human magic could be sealed by targeting and blocking the magic vein, Satan's power posed a unique challenge. His power was intrinsically linked to the concept of Wrath, an eternal force manifested through the history of sentient beings. As long as anger exists anywhere in the world's history, Satan's power would never truly be sealed, and he would remain eternal.
Despite the apparent impossibility, Daniel utilized the first ability of the Avatar Hecatonchires to attempt to seal Satan's power. However, he was well aware that his plan was uncertain, as the abilities of his cards might have changed or may not work as intended against beings of biblical stature like Satan.
"You! Damnnn Humannnnnn!" Satan roared in anger, his Wrath starting to unravel the seals Daniel had placed on him. The light of the ancient Greek symbols that bound him began to dim one by one.
Seeing this, Daniel quickly added two more seals to strengthen the seal he put on Satan before delivering a forceful stomp to Satan's exposed stomach, causing him to grunt in extreme pain. The agony surged through Satan's body, silencing him momentarily.
"Uuuff urraaggghh." Satan convulsed, expelling a torrent of blood mixed with vile substances onto the ground. Reacting swiftly, Daniel added two more seals and stomped on Satan's head, forcing him to lie in his own vomit. The frustration within Satan intensified to its peak as he longed to tear the insolent human to pieces. However, all of his power remained sealed, leaving him only able to glare furiously at Daniel.
Now, the once all-powerful Satan was reduced to groveling in his own filth, humiliated and defeated. Daniel increased the pressure on his feet, forcing Satan's head deeper into the mud and vomit.
"It seems that you have gravely misunderstood something, Satan. I'm not trapped in here with you… But you…" Daniel's voice dripped with disdain as he looked down on Satan. "Are trapped in here… With me."
"And I'll make sure to spend this sweet time teaching you fear… the fear that you better engrave on your skull every time you see me!" Daniel's words were filled with dominance and power.
Daniel knew that killing Satan for good was impossible with the knowledge of the Archmage, so he aimed to instill a lesson in Satan that he would remember for eternity. He was determined to teach Satan his place and ensure he would never dare to lay his evil hands on his family again.
Hearing Daniel's words and faced with the humiliating state he was in, Satan's anger was enough to set the world ablaze, even though he had not yet regained 100% of his power.
After being reincarnated with the Seed of Sin, he spent a period of time traveling the world to regain his power. He devoured Koyuki's aspect of Wrath along with all the power it held, pushing Koyuki to the brink of life and death. He had managed to restore about 50% of his power, a force capable of sinking an entire continent like Australia ten times over.
Yet, despite this formidable power, he found himself reduced to this humiliated state, unable to bear it any longer. Something within Satan snapped, and all sense of reason faded away as a rush of power surged from within him.
"You damned humaaaaaaaan!!!" Satan roared in anger once again, his wrath bursting forth as his body became engulfed in hellfire. Daniel quickly retreated out of the way, and the seals he had placed on Satan started to burn, consumed by the same hellfire that now covered Satan's body.
"Raaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgrggggggggggghhh!" Satan roared once more, like an injured beast reaching its boiling point, willing to do anything to annihilate its enemy. His body underwent a grotesque transformation, shedding the facade of an elegant human. The once red, elegant suit was now burnt away, leaving behind a monstrous, red-skinned form, continuously burning with hellfire.
With each passing moment, he grew larger and larger until he stood as a towering 30-meter giant. His wings of flame unfurled to their full glory, while crimson-red heavy armor manifested from the very flames adorned his massive body. In his large hand appeared a hellfire sword, adding to the terrifying image before Daniel.
Satan's elegant human face had become unrecognizable, now akin to that of a monstrous creature. Fangs and sharp teeth protruded from his mouth, and his eyes were literal flames burning within their sockets. Two red horns curved like a crown, signifying Satan's status and significance in Biblical legend. He exuded a sinister and malevolent aura, embodying the very essence of evil.
Freed from the seal Daniel had put on him, Satan's colossal hand swung ruthlessly at Daniel's former location, but found only empty air.
Booom!
The shockwave from Satan's punch reverberated through the infernal pocket dimension he had created, tearing through the very fabric of this nightmarish realm. The ground shook violently, and fissures spread like cracks in a broken mirror. Demonic structures crumbled, consumed by the unleashed power of their clash.
In this hellish domain, the devastation was surreal. Rivers of lava surged, and the sky was a fiery guy, he even transformed himself into a giant to let him test all of his new found power and let him be 10:14
able to freely let loose.
abyss, mirroring the chaos that unfolded beneath. The air was thick with the stench of sulfur and brimstone, bearing witness to the might of their titanic battle.
Daniel, standing on one of the large stones on the sea of Lava let out a smirk, Satan is such a good guy, he even transformed himself into a giant to let him test all of his new found power and let him be able to freely let loose.
Before Satan could react, Daniel quickly summoned the chain seal to bind Satan in place. Now, Daniel knows that the two powers of the Avatar Hecatonchires within his body that can gather power counters, could be freely utilized as long as he had stamina and wasn't too fatigued.
With each usage, he felt a pool of unknown power gathering within his body. Every time he employed the power to gather the power counters, this pool of unknown power grew, until he sensed that he could access an even more potent force, drawing from this mysterious reservoir as the source of power. This pleasant surprise came to him after the Hecatonchires Avatar had been actualized.
After ensuring that Satan couldn't move for at least a few brief moments, he quickly tapped into the power that lay dormant within that mysterious pool.
As Daniel continued to call upon the power to enhance himself, the red silhouette of energy emerged from his body, growing larger and larger. The Avatar made of pure unknown energy began to expand, its arms multiplying and appearing more prominent. Following the legend of the 100 arms, the reddish Hecatonchires Avatar now stood at the same height as Satan, with an additional 98 arms floating behind Daniel like a whirling wheel of arms.
With each call, Daniel amplified the power eightfold, resulting in a colossal 30-meter Hecatonchires Avatar that engulfed him, absorbing his body within its heart for protection. Within this merged state, Daniel felt a profound link with the Avatar, granting him control over all of Hecatonchires' limbs with a mere thought.
Clank! Clank! Clash!!
Amidst the clamor of clashing forces, the binding chains that restrained Satan began to crack and eventually shattered. Satan had exhausted all of his power in a relentless attempt to break free once more.
"Roooooooooooooooaaar!" As if celebrating his freedom, Satan roared once again before pouncing toward Daniel, who was inside the heart area of the Hecatonchires Avatar. But to his dismay, all he encountered was disappointment.
Booooooom!
Once more, a colossal fist struck Satan, but this time, the power behind it was even more devastating. Satan's red horn cracked as his head was crushed into the ground by the force of the Hecatonchires Avatar's punch.
