Chapter 417 Trap



Aion thought deeply and came to a realization. He figured out that the enemy, despite having the power to control time, was still restricted in their movements. It occurred to him that the seal of those relics was holding them back.

It prevented the enemy from causing widespread chaos and altering the course of events without any control. The seal acted as a safeguard, buying him and his allies valuable time to plan and find a way to counter the enemy's temporal abilities. Only all the fragments of Tenebres could do that.

The group inside the pocket dimension should have finished things already, considering how much Aion had been punched around, so he decided to make his move.

pandasnovel.com When the speedster mechanic suddenly approached to attack Aion again, he used Teleportation and then appeared behind him while grabbing his neck and left arm. In the next moment, everyone and all the corpses inside appeared outside, and then those two disappeared.

The speedster opened his eyes widely when he saw the surroundings changing. It was almost like he was in the dark again, but things were different… Still, he made his body tremble all over. Then he became intangible and escaped from Aion's clutches and tried to run away. Still, he knocked at an invisible wall ahead.

"At least, alone…" Aion said while smirking.

As the speedster desperately tried to escape from Aion's pocket dimension, he moved with incredible speed and agility, darting in every direction. But no matter how fast he ran or how sharply he turned, he kept crashing into the unseen walls of the dimension.

Each collision sent shockwaves through the space, causing ripples and distortions. The speedster's attempts to break free became more frantic, his movements filled with frustration and urgency. But time after time, he met with the same outcome - a force that halted their progress and sent them rebounding back.

With each collision, the speedster's confidence waned. His face once filled with determination, now showed signs of exhaustion and doubt. It became clear that escaping from Aion's pocket dimension was not going to be as simple as he had hoped.

"I made this one smaller to save mana and make sure that you won't have much room for acceleration," Aion explained. "Still, considering that you can become fast enough to the point of reaching intangibility, then you don't need much space to gain acceleration… This will take a bit of time, but it will be fun."

Aion was confident, but the speedster was more worried if he would be free once he killed Aion. Losing didn't even cross his mind, but the idea of being in a confined space like that scared the shit out of him… he had a hard time staying in the dark dome as well.

"Are you claustrophobic? That is funny," Aion said while bumping his fists.

The speedster got pissed and then decided to finish Aion off. He wanted to punch him to death, but only because he could avoid the blood that way. The speedster believed there was no meaning in winning while looking like a mess. Still, he changed his mind now.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

The speedster lifted his arm, a determined expression on his face. His hand trembled with an incredible speed, vibrating rapidly as if it were shaking at an unimaginable rate.

As his arm trembled faster and faster, it started to change in a strange way. It became less solid, almost like a ghostly apparition. The molecules seemed to shift and blur, making his arm intangible, as if it could pass through objects.

With his arm transformed, the speedster had a sinister plan. He wanted to take advantage of his intangibility and strike Aion with his arm, bypassing any physical defenses.

"Woah, scary… someone doesn't want to play for long; I guess this will be fine, then," Aion thought. "Killing you fast will also be satisfying."

The speedster charged toward Aion, and he didn't even have the chance to see it when the enemy impaled his chest. The speedster smiled when he stopped moving his arm and then felt his hand piercing Aion's chest, but then when he almost grabbed Aion's heart and smashed it… Aion grabbed his arm with both hands while blood was leaving his mouth. Despite that, he was smiling.

"You should have paid attention to where you stepped in," Aion said, and then the speedster felt a sharp pain on it before his body began to fall.

"Hhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!" The speedster shouted.

Aion opened one portal on the ground while in front of him. The enemy never saw that and didn't notice his feet leaving the dimension until Aion closed the portal, and then the enemy left his feet there. One was made of metal, so it was fine, but the other was made of flesh and bones… Thanks to it, he was bleeding like a waterfall.

"I know a bit of time magic myself, you know," Aion smiled while he was pulling the enemy's hand from his chest and smiling despite the excruciating pain and the blood that was gushing from his wound as well. "You never expected that I would be able to grab your arms, huh? I have planned many ways to kill you, and this is just one of them. Now, what can you do without your legs?"

Aion shouldn't have let the enemy go since the speedster also could crawl quite fast, but he just watched that with a smile since the enemy began to bleed out even faster.

"Dumbass, how you don't know even that? The fast types aren't exactly the cream of the crop when it comes to the brain, but you are worse than I expected," Aion said while he was sweating cold and healing chest. "Ahhh, this is so refreshing. Killing the others in the way I had planned will be fun too."

"Fu… fufu," The speedster began to laugh and then turned around and laughed even more while sitting on the ground. "Fufufufhhahahaha! I will give you the victory this time… but you will have the biggest of surprises pretty soon when you see your family and friends again."
