Chapter 1829 Confrontation [9]

Trying to fight Chaos was reminiscent of futility itself.

Chaos was a force of disorder. The unique circumstances surrounding its birth allowed it to ignore conventional laws, so it had power beyond what Damien had seen in his life.

Rather than being incredibly powerful, its nature of bending reality made it incredibly difficult to face.

The laws of Nonexistence were twisted whenever they came close to the being. Nature itself rebelled against its natural order and twisted into something unrecognizable just because the Spiritual God existed in its vicinity. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Facing such a being, Damien realized that everything he tried was going to be futile.

He genuinely couldn't do anything in this state. For the first time, he'd met an enemy that was like this.

Usually, it was only a power gap separating Damien from his enemies. As long as he reached their level, they were no longer terrifying. Chaos was different in that there technically was not a level of power in the Land of Nothingness. Everyone started and finished with the power to control Nonexistence. To become stronger, one had to understand how to use the power one possessed properly. In that sense, Chaos and Damien were at the same level. The problem was that Chaos was an entity born from the folds of this space. Unlike the children who were birthed in the Land of Nothingness, it was birthed from Nothingness itself after it mingled with the emotions of the populace.

Damien could try and try as much as he wanted, but no matter how he shaped or formed it, Nonexistence would not be able to harm Chaos.

His eyes narrowed as he accepted this conclusion. Even if it was bad for the current him, the knowledge that such a thing was possible was still a good thing to have. Sometimes, using the opposing force was necessary. 'It pisses me off that I have to do this. It literally hasn't done anything yet.'

When it came to Nonexistence, there was only one force that could be called true opposition. And to access it...

Damien frowned as he gazed at the black and red energy form in Eximus' body.

'It pisses me off that I have to do this. It literally hasn't done anything yet.'

Chaos was standing there smiling as if nothing Damien did mattered. It had no intention to attack or fight. After all, even if it weren't for its question, why would it fight?

All it needed to do was stay alive and all of its plans would come to fruition. Damien was the one who urgently needed to kill it so that the control skill affecting the island's strongest people could be dispelled.

Damien had to provoke it into a fight and kill it. He could try giving it an answer to its question, but why would he give away possibly sensitive information? In the end, he would learn the reasoning behind the question once he devoured Chaos. There was no need to entertain it.

He was currently surrounded by Void Energy. What did a mere Nonexistence think it had the power to do?

Damien looked up at the clouds and put energy into his hand. Using the strand of lightning as a leash, he dragged the clouds closer and closer.

They tried to resist his will and failed all the same. It had to be remembered that Chaos could only win against Damien because Nonexistence didn't work on him. He couldn't use the Void to attack yet, or else he would have been incinerated in a single second. The Void wouldn't help him solve problems where it was unnecessary. However, in moments like these, it didn't mind allowing him to shine.

The resisting clouds of Nonexistence were dragged to ground level. When they were just above his head, Damien slammed the leash into his own chest and pushed it into his soul.

The clouds had no choice but to follow. The face of Nonexistence that chose to challenge him was forced to be devoured, turned into food for another face.

"Are you insane?!"

Even Chaos couldn't believe what it was witnessing.

It had never encountered a force that had the power to kill it. Even the Ancient Gods who defeated him the first time could only seal him and hope that future generations would be able to finish what they started.

That fact allowed it to develop an unparalleled arrogance. It played around and acted whimsical with Damien because it genuinely felt not a single ounce of threat to its existence.

This was different. The storm alone had enough power to erase it, and the storm was only a byproduct of what Damien was originally trying to do. Damien was a real threat. The first one Chaos had ever met.

The instant the storm receded, Damien had to die.

That was what Chaos thought, but Damien had a bit of a different opinion.

His eyes were practically shining with light as he accepted the Godly power within him.

And, as he became a manifestation of Existence within the realm of Nothingness, he grinned.

With this kind of power, even Chaos itself had to tremble before him.
