Chapter 1901 A War of Attrition. I
"Tsk, let's see what you got little one." Amun-Ra sneered coldly as he summoned his divine scepter and ankh.
With a mere wave of his scepter, the sky above the Eternal Kingdom darkened for a moment before thousands of colossal glowing palms began to descend, aiming directly at Felix and Asna!
Each divine palm was larger than a mountain, tearing through the sky with unstoppable force, and leaving the viewers holding their breath in dread.
'Those are the same palms that killed off Felix's clone above Posedion's territory.' Candace gulped, her mind filled with the memory of Felix using a palm made out of celestial black flames to match the first ruler's divine palm.
Alas, it didn't turn out that well.
Yet, Felix lowered his head, knowing his wife had it covered.
"Are you taking a piss?" Asna uttered crudely as she gazed at the shower of divine palms.
She crossed her twin blades in front of her; the force of destruction and creation surging within her.
Then, she swung her blades in a wide arc, forming a perfect X in the air before her. Asna merely sneered at the rulers before tapping her finger on the X mark.
Before anyone could react, two massive energy waves erupted, one glowing with the brilliant light of creation, and the other with the dark, consuming force of destruction!
Both seemed to be infused with celestial energy as their auras were coated with a tint of divinity.
Whoosh!!
The X-shaped slash cut through the air akin to a boomerang, disappearing out of vision almost instantly.
Slice! Slice!...
Each time it reappeared, hundreds of divine palms were sliced and erased without much resistance!
The watchers' eyes remained wide open, jumping from one divine palm to another, trying their best to follow the aftermath of the slash.
"Is this the power of destruction abilities infused with celestial energy?" Thor murmured, his eyes attempting their best to keep up but to no avail.
"Destruction, creation, and celestial energy...A deadly combination." Eris narrowed her eyes, "But, the rulers have more to offer than this."
It seemed like the rulers wanted to prove her right as the moment the last of the divine palms integrated, the fragments began to glow with an intense radiant light.
Then, they exploded into billions of needle-thin blades, each one a sliver of divine energy, sharp and deadly!
The sky above them was instantly filled with these blades, turning the serene sea of clouds into a storm of light!
He placed the unique blade on his shoulder and remained in his position, seemingly having no interest in joining the battle.
"What kind of weapon is that and why does it seem like the first ruler isn't going to fight?" Candace asked.
"No one has ever seen the first ruler fight for real." Eris replied with a solemn tone, "This is the first time I see him with a weapon."
Even Asna heightened her guard as she gazed hatefully into the eyes of Ymir, knowing that it was going to be a bit difficult to fight all three of them at once if they went all out.
'The three rulers are immune to all elements/laws, making it impossible to harm them through anything besides divine attacks or by removing their immunities.' Asna pondered, 'I am in the same boat as them, which means this battle will last until one of us exhausts their celestial energy reserve.'
'This is most likely their reason for taking things slow, knowing that even if Felix tapped into the void realm and obtained a channel to his celestial energy, he wouldn't be able to absorb it fast enough to make a difference.'
Asna was quite certain about her analysis.
Besides those two giveaways, the three rulers were still sending out divine smites across the universe, forcing Felix to keep up the celestial barrier across the SGAlliance's territory.
This was enough proof that they sought after his reserve of celestial energy...Their plan was as straightforward as it could get, but it was the most effective.
It was so effective, that Felix and Asna had implanted the same strategy, desiring to outlast the three rulers' celestial reserve!
That's why Felix prioritized breaking the seal above everything else.
Since the three rulers had no clue about the stone of reality's powers and that Felix was currently manipulating the fabric of logic, they were under the assumption that it was going to take him quite a decent time.
They were that confident in their seal capabilities.
But alas, before they could launch round two, Felix suddenly stood up while dusting his buttcheeks from the mist.
Then, he stared at them with an emotionless look and said, "Your overconfidence will be your downfall."
The moment he uttered those words, Felix tapped his finger on a single letter on the wall of logic, and suddenly, the eternal kingdom's skies were engraved with illuminating divine inscriptions.
The kingdom's mortals raised their eyes to witness this glorious and divine sight.
Just as they were about to kneel in worship, the letters shattered into fragments akin to a broken mirror.
Meanwhile, behind Felix and Asna, a small black dot manifested and started to get bigger and bigger until it resembled a massive void rift, gazing into the abyss.
"You want a war of attrition?"
Felix said indifferently as he split his body into two, leaving one next to the portal while making the other stand next to Asna.
He summoned a sword out of celestial black flames and pointed the tip in the first ruler's direction.
Then, he finished with an icy grimace, "You got it."
