Chapter 1884 Clash of the Titans [13]
The war had continued for a week now. As it was a war, that was quite a short period of time. Usually, the individual battles that constituted a war would take place weeks or months apart, but it was different here. The battles continued constantly. Every time the Heavenly World's people killed a member of the Foreign Race army, the dead would return no more than a day later. In order to cope with the numbers, they adopted a revolving door strategy where they constantly swapped the troops on the frontlines.
The ground troops were able to use this strategy, the arrays of the Krone Clan and their allies like the clans who followed August, and the blessing they received from Thalia's group's progress.
The majority of the world was taken into the True Void Territory at this point. It was highly unlikely for the Vanguard forces to make any progress in destroying the True Void forces.
There were several different places on the battlefield where one could focus.
At one point, the Nox were there. Those who came with Damien and those who ascended without staying in Grand Heavens Boundary were all led by Yong An. Under his command, they finally reached for the revenge they had been yearning for.
On another side, the members of the Void Clan and their associates were fighting against the most important Foreign Nobles in the starry sky.
They were all making progress at different levels. It was certain that none of them were losing, but it would take more time for some of them to defeat their enemies than others.
For example, Claire naturally couldn't take down the incarnation of evil in one fell swoop. She was still in the process of reading it and discerning the method to defeat it. At the moment, she was able to stand against it without constantly being under pressure, but she was still unable to do any damage.
Ruyue was the same. Absolute Yang was a force that she couldn't dispel easily. The Chaos between her and her opponent was enough to form a sea, and they were both drowning in it. Their bodies could only be represented by their burning silver and gold auras that cut through the waters.
She didn't expect to find it here, but this situation was able to surprise her. As her Absolute Yin came in contact with Absolute Yang, heaven's restrictions loosened. She felt herself getting closer to that point where they couldn't affect her at all.
The solution was nearby all along. All she needed to do was ask Damien to manifest Absolute Yang for some time so she could comprehend everything she needed.
To thank her opponent for that revelation, she continued to attack the atmosphere, increasing the level of chaos and granting him a quicker death. Rose was practically done with her fight already. She was able to use the cracks in reality that Damien and the Dark God created to her advantage to dismantle her opponent's power.
As for Elena, it was already clear when she was last seen. She killed her enemy over and over again. He had no power against her.
It got to the point where he stopped aiming for Elena and looked for other opponents, which gave her time to rampage through the field and cause mayhem for the Sacred Abyss side.
Everyone was doing their part. From sky to ground and all around, it was impossible to find a single person slacking. Even Tiamat, who remained hidden until this moment, was playing her role perfectly.
Damien could feel the Dark God's envy clearly. As their minds were one, that burning feeling, that feeling that was as deep and wide as the greatest of oceans, was perfectly transmitted to him.
For the same reason, the Dark God felt the emotions Damien held towards him.
The ones he expected were there. The mild nature of the emotions like hatred and whatnot was confusing, but those emotions were present.
What Damien felt more strongly, however, was scorn and pity.
But the Dark God didn't need to read his emotions to know that. The look in Damien's eyes had changed. He was no longer seeing the same Dark God he saw before.
That scorn was so clearly represented. Those cold eyes that looked at him like he was nothing were incredibly familiar.
Why was he using that expression?
In that moment, those eyes overlapped with a pair that the Dark God knew well. Those empty eyes that did not care one bit about his struggles were the same ones he saw from the Worldwalker.
The faces of the two overlapped in his mind. His eyes bulged behind the veil of darkness as he gritted his teeth and attacked as ferociously as he possibly could.
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"
He roared. Damien reeled back at the unexpected words. The Dark God lunged at him with an arm out for his throat, but Damien quickly substituted his body with air and used an ethereal state to travel to another point in space. Even behind the veil, the other party's madness was not hidden.
Damien's eyes didn't change despite the fact. No, he was only given more reasoning to have that expression on his face.
The conjectures he had when he watched the Dark God's memories did not have to remain hypothetical.
He was sure that it was true.
And that...
That only made him respect the Dark God less.
