Chapter 1580 Chaos [3]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The explosion was truly incalculable. It contained the entirety of a Supreme God's Existence within it, so it had to be at least that big.

Malefice's law was based on darkness, but his final moments produced an unreasonable amount of light, enough to blind even the strongest experts.

The sound was also something that had to be mentioned.

Fierce, roaring winds behind any other. They roared like they were mourning the death of their closest person, like they wanted to destroy the world in their rage.

It was a true spectacle, and absolutely not something the Heavenly World could see often.

This was the true extent of a God's power in its rawest form.

To some, it was a beautiful moment. To others, it was a spectacle. Those caught inside were vaporized instantly, and only later would they be mourned by those they left behind.

Serena thought she was far away from Damien and Claire, but that turned out to not be the case, as even she was caught in the edge of the explosion.

'This...!'

Her eyes widened in immense surprise as she put up all the defenses she possibly could.

'If this came from where they are...'

Her instincts immediately kicked in.

'I have to get there.'

She pushed forward through the rampant energy that refused to stop raging in the atmosphere, using every drop of her power to push towards Damien and Claire.

Because if they were in the very center of all of this chaos...

***

Right, that was what it was.

Chaos.

Damien's attention was immediately brought back to reality in the split second that the explosion took to reach him.

He was forced to make a rapid decision without understanding the full extent of the situation he was in.

VOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Damien's Existence barrier went up and clashed again the explosive force in that small amount of space. The energy repelled off the barrier and collided with everything else that was happening, making the space around Damien extremely bright.

He could feel the force through the barrier. If he used a weaker force, he wouldn't be able to protect himself and his mother.

'Mom...

Speaking of, he'd completely taken his attention off of the battle happening in her soul.

Claire's body jerked and spawned in the air. Malevolent energy swirled around her as her appearance started to morph towards its possessed state.

Crack!

She thrashed, still unconscious.

'Dammit!'

Damien didn't have the mental capacity to speak or think.

If he left his mother's situation alone, the barrier he used to block her connection with the alternate cosmos would falter. The full force he'd exerted on the dark beast on the other side would rebound on her, and that would lead to the worst case scenario.

If Claire didn't leave her life, she'd be left vulnerable, and that being would not miss the chance to sieze her body permanently.

A way to make both problems disappear from this world at the same time.

Damien's Existence barrier expanded.

In Claire's soul, it got larger until it encompassed the entire portal to the alternate cosmos. In the real world, it split into two and covered Damien and Claire individually.

'Mom, I'll be right back.'

Damien pushed his arm out.

He grabbed the essence of Malefice's self-explosion and released his mana infinitely.

It expanded and expanded, becoming a massive net that contained the entire blast radius within it.

Damien focused on the energy.

'I need to grab it and nothing else.'

Any and all matter, any living beings or natural landmarks, needed to stay excluded.

'Okay.'

He managed to do it since he'd already found the core.

And on Claire's soul's side...preparations had already been made.

VOOOOOOOOOOM!

Damien's mana surged once more, the air warbled around him, and space itself manifested like a massive blob of water that moved and flexed like it was alive.

BANG!

It was not a force, but compression.

In a single instant, the explosive light compressed to a fifth of its size.

BANG!

Again, it got smaller.

BANG!

And again.

The sound resounded over and over again, getting more and more frequent until the entire explosion was contained within the palm of Damien's hand.

'This is it.'

He'd been careful not to mess anything up thus far, but this was the moment of truth.

He brought the two pieces of existence closer to him.

And he activated his power of chaos.

VOOOOOOOOOM!

The warbling space droplet opened up. It's proverbial jaws stretched around Damien and the objects in his possession.

'It's going to be a bumpy ride.'

Damien closed his eyes.

WAP!

The space anomaly swallowed him whole.

...and everything went black.
