The Bloodline System

Chapter 1274: Itʼs About Time We Ended This Charade

Authorʼs Note: Unedited Chapter

-------------

(”Thereʼs only one way to achieve full immunity against Strumʼs Manipulation of time,”)

ʼHmm... it should be fine since everyone else is affected right now...ʼ Gustav knew exactly what the system.was referring to.

His main self closed his eyes and focused on the center of his being, tapping into the power that lay within...

Fwwhii~

Captain Strum dashed towards Gustavʼs figure in mid air and was about to land another punch when his eyes suddenly emitted a bright glow.

Tiiinnggg~

A wave of unfathomable energy spread forth from Gustavʼs figure as his irises turned reddish pink and a cross shaped golden glow appeared in his eyes.

Zhrrriihhhh~

Gustavʼs second figure pulled backwards suddenly and merged with his first, causing Captain Strumʼs punch to miss.

”Huh? How...?” Captain Strumʼs face lit up with an expression of confoundment as he swiftly spun around.

He spotted Gustavʼs figure starting to glow up as an unknown amount of pressure descended upon the vicinity.

The pinkish with a mixture of gold aura circulating Gustavʼs being sent forth a divine wave across the battlestage that made Captain Strum feel like he was in the presence of god.

A feeling of complete submission welled up from within as he stared at Gustav with an expression of reverence. Every fibre of his being was wanted to bow down in the face of Gustavʼs wake.

Pah!

Captain Strum slapped himself as he noticed he was subconsciously succumbing to Gustav.

”Is this... Is he... Could it be...?” Captain Strum couldnʼt believe his eyes as he watched Gustav free himself from the shackles of time reversal.

Gustav raised his right arm, staring at his glowing figure with a straight face as he clenched his fist.

ʼI havenʼt activated Cosmic Superiority in full scale in a long time... Even without doing anything, its already taking effect on the environment,ʼ Gustav said internally while raising his face to stare at Captain Strum up ahead.

”You are... It doesnʼt matter! I wonʼt let you win!” Captain Strum yelled and charged at Gustav in the next instant.

Fwwhooossshhh~

Gustav peered at his incoming figure with an unbothered expression before making an utterance.

”Stop!”

Thrrriiiihhh~

His words rippled with absolute command and unfathomable power that immediately spread across the vicinity.

Captain Strumʼs figure instantly paused in place with his multiple limbs outstretched.

ʼWhat in the world? He is truly a Cosmic Superior Being! A Cosmic Superior Being participating in IYSOP! This must be a joke! My mind must be playing tricks on me!ʼ Captain Strum yelled internally as his body paused in place.

”Fall!”

Gustavʼs voice rang out again and Captain Strumʼs figure descended from the air with speed.

”Faster!”

An unfathomable pressure descended upon Captain Strumʼs figure causing him to fall faster.

Bang!

He slammed into the ground in the next instant, forming a new crater as his knees stamped to the cracked battle stage.

Fwwhiii!

Gustav landed before him with an expression devoid of emotions as he stared directly into Captain Strumʼs eyes.

”That prideful look... do you... hnnghh... think youʼre better... than me?” Captain Strum struggled to speak as shot an hateful glare at Gustav.

”Hmm since you can still speak it means Iʼm being too lenient...” Gustav was surprised that Captain Strum managed to even speak with his Cosmic Superior energy active but he wasnʼt done.

”Down!” His voice rang out authoritatively causing Captain Strumʼs figure to push against the ground ten times harder than before.

”Hghnnn!” Captain Strum tried his best to fight the pressue while trying to regain control of his body but the more he tried to define, the stronger the pressure became.

Every fibre of his being defiled his command, overwriting his will and following that of Gustavʼs as his body descended even further.

Bam!

He fell face flat in the next instant, bowing completely before Gustav.

Captain Strum had never felt so humiliated before his life as he tried to roar out in defiance but even his voice chose not to obey his will at this point.

Despite the fact that spectators couldnʼt witness this moment due to the current state of time, he still felt immensely humiliated. He never expected the battle would go this way. He didnʼt think heʼd be fighting with a Cosmic Superior Being.

Step! Step! Step! Step!

He could ear Gustavʼs foot step echoing as he made his way across the cracked icy mirror like ground.

The moment the sound stopped, Captain Strum knew Gustav was right in front of him. In the next instant, his feeling of humiliation multiplied.

Gustav raised his right foot and placed it on Captain Strumʼs head.

Stomp!

His foot buried Strumʼs head deeper into the ice as he placed his right elbow on his knee and remained in place, daunting a relaxing expression for a bit.

Captain Strum couldnʼt even writhe in dissatisfaction since his body had completely succumbed to Gustavʼs will but his mind was reeling in wrath.

ʼIʼll kill you I swear Gustav Crimson!ʼ

ʼIʼll end you!ʼ

ʼIʼll destroy you!ʼ

No matter how much he yelled in his mind Gustav left his foot resting on Captain Strumʼs head regardless. He knew how prideful Captain Strum was and his major aim right now was to complete squash that pride.

”Do you remember how you harmed my subordinate?” Gustav voiced while twisting his leg to rub the sole of his boot on Captain Strumʼs head throughly.

”Yeah... you caused major problems to someone i care about,” Gustav voiced while continuing rubbing foot across Captain Strumʼs head.

”This will teach you to watch who you mess with,” Gustav proceeded to take his foot off.

Captain Strumʼs pride was bruised but he thought it was at least over now.

”Turn over,”

Captain Strumʼs body flipped over with his face up and his back kissing the icy ground.

Stomp!

Gustav stomped his face in the next instant, rubbing the sole of his boot throughly on it.

ʼIʼll KILL HIM IF ITʼS THE LAST THING I DO,ʼ Captain Strum became even more infuriated as Gustav foot abused his face repeatedly.

”Up,” Captain Strumʼs body floated upwards a bit before Gustav.

”Speak,” Gustav gave Strum free will over his speech.

”I will kill you! I will make you beg for mercy! I will gouge out your eyeballs and eat them!” Captain Strum yelled out with a deep tone of fury and hatred.

Pah!

Gustav slapped his cheek, causing a loud sound of collision to ring out as Captain Strumʼs neck instantly twisted.

Krrryychhh~

His head turned 180° degrees and blood flew out of his mouth.

”Arrrgghhhh!” Captain Strum screamed in pain as his face became rooted to the back.

This of course was not enough to kill him but it inflicted an indescribable pain.

”Oouu sorry my bad. You were talking trash so I had to slap it out of your mouth,” Gustav voiced with a tone of pity while grabbing Captain Strumʼs head and twisting it back to place.

”Iʼll Kill you! If its the last thing I do! I donʼt care about IYSOP anymore! Youʼre dead! Youʼre dead! Youʼre dea...”

Pah! Krryychhhh!

Another loud slap reverberated across the vicinity, accompanied with the sound of bone cracking as Captain Strumʼs neck twisted once more.

”Ghharrrghhhh!”

”My bad... I should have let you finish speaking first,” Gustav twisted Captain Strumʼs neck back to its original angle.

”Aaarrrghhhhh!” Captain Strumʼs face was plagued with an expression of pain and hate as he began screaming profanities again.

Pah! Krrryychhh~

”Aaagghhhhh!”

Pah! Krrryychhh~

”Aaagghhhhh!”

Pah! Krryychhhh~

”Ghaarrrhhhh!”

The same scenario played out repeatedly with Captain Strum being on the receiving end of Gustavʼs brutal assault.

Eventually Captain Strum voice turned hoarse from screaming and he lost the will to threaten Gustav.

His expression soon turned from unwillingness to tiredness as his voice started to lack the liveliness it had at the start.

Captain Strumʼs Encour was incapacitated at the far end of the Battle Stage barrier. Gustav hadnʼt inflicted any damage on it in a while but he guessed it was incapacitated due to the scale at which Captain Strum was manipulating time.

Time was Still being reversed even at this point and Gustav could tell that this would continue to be the case until Captain Strum stopped it, ran out of energy or passed out.

”Alright, Itʼs about time we ended this charade,” Gustav voiced as he let go of the Dracon who was no longer voicing out profanities.

”Up!”

Fwwhiiii~ Bang!

”Down!”

Fwwwhiii~ Bang!

”Left!”

Fwwwhiii~ Bang!

”Right!”

Fwwwhiii~ Bang!

Captain Strumʼs figure catapulted across the entire battle stage at fast pace, slamming into different areas as he continously ricocheted off the ground and the icy structures in mid air.

Gustavʼs command was absolute and couldnʼt be battled against. It was like whatever he voiced would become.reality.

”Blast!”

Booom!

A loud explosion rang out, sending Captain Strum flying as his figure immediately became scalded.

”Blast!”

Boom!

Another explosion rang out, sending Captain Strum shooting forward this time.

Gustav floated in the direction Strumʼs figure was headed and in the next instant he sent forth a fist.

Bang!

His fist slammed into Captain Strumʼs abdominal region causing the Dracon to spit out a jet of blood as his body caved in.
