The Martial Unity

The air tingled with tension.

The atmosphere grew electric with peril.

The intensity of the mood that had settled on the world was palpable.

She gazed at the creature with a knowing glint in her unfathomable eyes.

“I know that you come from beyond our world.”

Her voice was chillingly intense.

Her expression was eerily cold.

“I know because I traveled the length and breadth of this continent once upon a time as I spread the boon of Martial Art upon this world.

Behind her, the Blood Goddess widened her eyes with a chilling realization. “You…”

And yet, Her attention remained fixed on the cyborg entity.

“I know, because I have borne witness to all of Land.”

Her tone grew increasingly perilous.

“I know because I have met all manner of men in this world, and yet…”

Her eyes sharpened with danger.

“I have not met any man as grotesque as you.”

The atmosphere boiled with palpable intensity as She faced off against it.

“Do not make me repeat myself.”

Her tone was intense.

Her unfathomable eyes remained fixed upon the cyborg entity.

“Where from you do come?”

The cyborg entity stiffened before a careful, reluctant answer escaped it.

“ᚱᚢᚾᛖᛋ ᚱᚢᚾᛖᛋ.”

An alien language.

She tilted her head.

Her intense eyes remained fixed upon it as a single chilling remark escaped Her.

“Wrong answer.”

RUMBLE!!!!!

The world boiled with peril as her bloodlust shook all of heaven and earth as he Realms of power blazed to life.

The cyborg entity leaped away with an expression of grave severity as its technological systems flared with maximum power.

And yet, it was all for naught.

WHOOSH

In the blink an of an eye, she arrived before it with a single step.

Before it could even react to what had happened.

It was no different from an ordinary Martial maneuver.

And yet, it was one that she had practiced for ten thousand years.

She had reached a realm of mastery was exponentially above anything ever witnessed in not just the world of Martial Art but the world of life as a whole.

The cyborg entity shook with alarm as it unleashed tremendously powerful plasma blasts upon her.

And yet–

WHOOSH

She seemed to tunnel through the very fabric of reality as she emerged from the attack entirely unharmed as her right hand balled into a fist, thrusting forward with great power.

Her fist seemed to tunnel through the fabric of reality, approaching a speed that was very close to that of the speed of light.

It triggered a phenomenon that very, very few Martial Artists had the power to tap into.

According to Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity, the faster on traveled, the greater the mass of their body.

At the speeds that She was traveling at, the mass of her fist was more than a hundreds denser than it normally was.

It gave birth to an attack that was hundreds of times stronger than even what She would otherwise be able to unleash.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!!!

CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK!!!

The cyborg entity grimaced with pain as its bones shattered upon a single blow from Her. Not even the ECCP System reinforcing its bones’ durability could protect from the sheer amount of power that She unleashed upon it with a single attack.

Its defense systems crumbled under the sheer weight of her attack as her its flesh crumpled. Its skin tore as blood began spurting from various wounds on its body. The sheer depth of force that She subjected to the cyborg entity was beyond anything that it could have even begun to have fathomed.

The plating systems collapsed in the blink of an eye as its entire body grew ravaged by the impact.

The Martial Masters watched with frozen awe as Her devastating power completely dismantled the technological systems comprising of its body, causing it to suffer greatly.

The antimatter reactor cracked as the containtment unit within the cyborg entity’s threatened to leak.

Even as the cyborg entity’s body of flesh and machine began breaking, it froze at the threat of the antimatter escaping.

Then again, dying and taking this inferior civilization along with it was worth it.

Fot the glory of the Imperial Tekvorian Federation.

Unfortunately, its suicidal malice was transparent in Her eyes.

THWACK

The back of her hand swiftly struck its jaw with an intense impact. Its cybernetic eyes grew hazy, rolling up as the cyborg entity lost consciousness.

THUD

Its broken body collapsed.

The air remained perilous as she gazed at the fallen body with an intense, piercing gaze.

For a minute, nothing happened.

And then, her intense amber eyes shifted as it fixated on the powerful, black-red jet.

VMMM!!!

It revved with power, surging to return where it came from.

It moved quick.

And yet, She moved quicker.

WHOOSH

In the blink of an eye, She appeared before it, impeding its path.

VMMMMMM!!!!!

The powerful craft activated its extraordinary gravity well defensive system, as the very fabric of space and time curled around the powerful craft, forming a nigh-impenetrable barrier.

‘Nigh’ being the keyword.

“Everything is Martial Art.”

Her tone was unfathomably intense.

Her fist surged forward with astronomical power, tunneling through the very fabric of reality.

BANG!

With exquisite mastery the likes of which the world had never even fathomed, She reduced Her power by a factor of one million just nanoseconds before her fist impacted the craft.

The damage She dealt upon it was just enough to prevent its escape.

She sought preserve as much as she could from the visiters that came from beyond the world she knew. She watched the craft plummet into the ocean, deploying its emergency floating systems, entirely immobile and unable to escape.

She heaved a sigh and then, and only then, did her attention shift to the Martial Masters.

Her intense demeanor changed, becoming one of warmth and life. Her serious eyes shifted, becoming one of gentle kindness and delight.

“You have done well to endure this tribulation,” her warm voice soothed them, healing their trauma. “But first…”

Her tone grew sorrowful as her eyes rested upon the corpse of Gatekeeper.

“…we must honor the sacrifices.”
