MIGHT AS WELL BE OP

Chapter 922: World Ender

The moment the clones of himself created by Aura Nova were destroyed, Kingsley vanished from his position entirely. One instant, he stood amidst the remnants of shattered light and dissipating mana; the next, he appeared beside Aura Nova herself, his presence abrupt and overwhelming. His fist collapsed forward as he deployed another technique without pause or warning.

[Universal Technique: Fist Type: World Ender]

The air around his clenched fist swelled violently, trembling with maddening intensity as though reality itself recoiled from what was about to be unleashed. Pressure built upon pressure until the space around his arm could no longer endure it. Then it collapsed outward in a catastrophic release as Kingsley punched forward with titanic force. Space shattered upon itself, folding, cracking, and tearing as his fist tore through existence with unstoppable momentum.

Aura Nova did not hesitate for even a fraction of a second. The moment Kingsley moved, her mana erupted from her core in full force, surging outward in a radiant torrent as she responded instinctively, her control absolute.

Omniedit: Command: Source Edit: Spatial Vacuum

At her command, the shattered space reconstructed itself according to her will, twisting and reforming to create a vast, yawning vacuum between herself and Kingsley. The void stretched wide and deep, swallowing light, sound, and force alike as reality bent to her authority.

With cataclysmic impact, Kingsley’s golden fist collided head-on with the spatial vacuum. The world stilled for a single, fragile moment, then it quaked, then shook, then trembled, then spasmed violently, before erupting into an all-consuming madness of destruction and ruin. Black, blue, and gold flooded the separate plane as an unknown energy and raw mana tore into one another with apocalyptic fury.

The resulting shockwave slammed directly into both Aura Nova and Kingsley, carrying with it the intent to erase them from existence entirely. Yet without even a flicker of hesitation, both vanished, each employing vastly different methods to evade annihilation.

The entire separate plane convulsed. For a brief instant, it appeared as though the space itself stood on the brink of implosion under the devastation wrought by these two beings. Then, just as suddenly, it mended itself. Fractured space stitched together, warped laws stabilized, and the entire space regained cohesion with frightening ease, effortlessly withstanding their destruction as though it had endured such calamities before.

Another immense wave of mana erupted from Aura Nova’s core. Her reserves appeared inexhaustible, her output limitless, as she manipulated reality without restraint or consideration for conservation. The air screamed under the strain of her authority as the entire sky dyed itself a deep, unnatural blue. Clouds vanished instantly, erased by the sheer density and weight of her mana.

In the next instant, space itself obeyed her thoughts.

Reality fractured violently, tearing open into warped slits that twisted and bent into razor-thin blade lines, edges capable of cleaving through anything and everything that existed. Their numbers multiplied like malignant cells: one became two, two birthed twenty, twenty multiplied into a thousand, a thousand into a million, and a million into endless infinity.

The entire separate space screamed in silent apology, as though begging for mercy. The air grew suffocating beneath her control, compressed and distorted to the brink of collapse. Yet Kingsley did not move. He simply steadied himself, muscles tightening as he braced for the incoming apocalypse. Without hesitation, without mercy, and without restraint of any kind, Aura Nova unleashed the attack.

Around Kingsley, grid-like webs of interlinking spatial blades formed instantaneously. They surrounded him from all directions before collapsing inward, converging with lethal precision, each blade intent on reducing him to countless fragments and tearing him from existence entirely.

Kingsley did not dare hesitate.

He activated his Zero-step Displacement movement ability in a flash, vanishing as though he had never occupied that position to begin with. However, Aura Nova had already accounted for this outcome. Without pause, she continued to channel her mana endlessly, maintaining and expanding the formation of her literal endless spatial blades.

Kingsley’s body became a flicker of golden radiance, his form shifting between positions and layers of reality with terrifying speed and fluidity. Yet the blades kept pace. They chased him relentlessly. They missed, they adjusted, they pursued again. He dodged, they slashed, he vanished. The sky transformed into an endless stage of obliterating madness, a ceaseless bombardment that threatened to tear the heavens themselves apart.

Kingsley knew he could not dodge forever.

He was not a man who wielded mana, and he could not gauge whether Aura Nova’s reserves were merely abnormal or outright absurd. What he did know was that remaining passive would lead only to eventual destruction. Though his body was resilient beyond normal comprehension, harder than anything most beings could even imagine, he could feel the genuine threat behind her attack.

[Universal Technique: Fist Type: Continuous Rampage]

Without hesitation, he shifted into another technique. His fists ignited with searing golden intensity, power coiling tightly beneath his skin. In perfect tandem with his Zero-step Displacement, he surged forward. This time, he no longer dodged, he met every spatial blade head-on.

Each strike was precise, brutal, and absolute. Every blade he struck collapsed violently, tearing through the reality of the position he had just vacated. Kingsley never lingered. The moment one blade fell, he moved to the next, his movements fluid and relentless. His form became a living embodiment of martial perfection, a pure martial artist operating at the absolute peak of his craft.

Aura Nova floated in place, watching him intently. Her sky-blue eyes danced within their sockets as she followed his movements, her gaze sharp, calculating, and undeniably curious, as though she were already weaving her next plan.

Omniedit: Command: Logic Hijack: Spatial Exchange

The instant she issued the command, reality blinked.

Kingsley felt it immediately. Space twisted violently around him, distorting his perception and balance. Before he could react, he was forcefully teleported from his position. A spatial distortion appeared where he once stood, and the moment he reappeared elsewhere, a barrage of spatial blades rendered into him with point-blank, irremediable force.

They tore into him like sharks drawn to blood.

Kingsley could not move. He could only grit his teeth and endure as he deployed a technique at the very last moment.

[Universal Technique: Body Type: Shimmering Defence]

The defensive technique flared around his body, shimmering with golden resilience, but it barely held. Cuts and gashes of various sizes tore through him ceaselessly, endless and unforgiving, blood trailing through the warped air. Then, without warning, the barrage ceased.

The next moment, under Aura Nova’s absolute will, the spatial blades detonated with inauspicious might.

Kingsley’s body was hurled downward from above, crashing violently into a swamp below. His impact carved a massive sinkhole into the terrain, the force and momentum behind the attack utterly unforgiving as the earth shattered beneath him.

Aura Nova hovered above for a moment, gazing down calmly. Then she descended from the sky, at least what remained of it, for she had erased it in its entirety. Yet the separate plane was already healing at full speed, reality knitting itself together once more, and within mere seconds, a new sky began to form overhead.
