Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Concepts could not be blocked or stopped in the usual sense, especially regarding the Concept of Severance. Bael had said that the Concept of Destruction would be severed by its cut. While the Concept of Severance would also perish, the moment they touched, I knew that no matter the concept I used, I needed to dodge his every attack.

"DIE!!!!" Xentrix bellowed as he darted towards me like a mad bull, covered in a death cloak.

I lept back as he crashed into the earth beneath my feet, sending tremors through the villa, which should have activated the runes.

Sensing Valice watching from a distance, recording everything, I snorted, reaching into myself to my cold icy persona. And as if a switch was flipped, I felt myself return to the most optimal mindset.

Everything turned clear.

I didn't need to worry about Zanta, who now had a Paragon watching out for his safety, but rather myself. If my body speed was limited, I needed to make simple and precise movements that were sure to land a killing blow.

Concepts are useless if they can't hit anything.

Allowing the darkness to remove the boots beneath my feet so that I could feel the icy earth, I sucked in a deep breath, feeling the will of the abyss touch me.

There were two ways to use Attunement: Actively And passively. When Belphegor and I fought, we both were using active attunement, which puts a heavy strain upon the body and soul, and made me a cripple.

Passive was simple; it granted me lower power without any chance of backlash.

Although it's still annoying that of all the great powers, none of them at my level seems stronger than the other. Thank God these foolish angels severed their rights to gain attunement with this new Law of Concordance.

Taking a running start as though I were a mortal. Light bent around me, and as the very laws seemed to flee, I gathered my power.

The first one who needed to die was the holder of the Concept of Severance.

Nevertheless, Xentrix was not going to allow me to pass simply.

I narrowed my eyes as the grey tip angel bellowed under the pillar of seraphic qi; the twin sigils in my eyes flared to life. The very moment his sword pierced towards my head at a blinding speed, carrying the laws of light around its edge, a pentagram filled the earth as Heavenly Bind activated to my will.

Seven swords fell from the heavens, trapping not Xentrix but rather the one who held the Concept of Severance. It had all happened so quickly, and despite having the ability to split everything, if your thoughts are frozen, what good is ultimate power?

p Pivoting off my feet the moment the blade was about to touch me, I dodged by twisting around his blade with the heel of my feet, sending a ruthless slap covered by forsaken qi to block the concept of Death.

I have proven that my body could resist some concepts at face value; how long was a question up for debate, but I felt I could take most attacks based upon auras like Death. Severance was different as it was more of a precise strike.

Sending Xentrix flying, I shadow stepped behind the Severance user, and without caring for those who watched, I tapped his head, activating Genisis, killing him instantly.

Heavenly Bind was a ritual meant to hold the angel's greatest criminals; it was a magnificent sealing ritual made spell by my sigil.

"Rayza!!!"

Not bothering to look at the Xentrix, who streamed in utter torment as he wiped the blood off his lips, I sucked in a large breath as sweat dotted my brow. Fifty percent of my divinity was almost gone.

But only two are alive, Xentrix and his death concept and the holder of protection, which was going to be tricky. I needed to kill Xentrix first.

Narrowing my eyes, I looked up at the tear-filled eyes of the angel and formulated a plan utterly opposite of the one I first thought.

Dashing towards Xentrix, as he rushed towards me, a sea of embers fluttered my vision like a wave of butterflies as our blades danced.

Blood crept through my robes, soaking my clothes as the injuries created by Belphegor began to reopen. But Xentrix was in no better shape as hundreds of vicious gashes began to rise from his body.

"Go wild! I've got your back, Xen!" The Holder of the Concept of Protection howled as an azure flame-like aura soared from Xentrix pores.

Covering my sword with a smiting intent, my blade slithered like the great serpent towards Xen's neck, hoping to find blood, but under the azure aura, my sword almost flew out of my hand. Holding the blade tight, I grunted as I dodged Xentrix's sneaky strike towards my neck.

Making sure not to look at the other angel, I pushed out my senses and smiled, noticing that he didn't have an azure flame cloak.

Fools, I've played many RPGs in my life. Do you really think I don't know that killing the tank of a party means victory is all but assured?

I'm the villain bitch. The final boss!

Almighty essence rippled from my blade, blinding the skies as I swung towards Xantrix, but to his surprise, all he saw was his azure flame cloak vanish as the sounds of a thud filled our ears.

And just like that, I'm down to twenty percent power. Shadow Slash is a bitch of a drain. Guess it has to be since it ignores space and time.

"I-i-I-Impossible!"

Blood drenched my cloak as a cold smile slipped over my lips. " Game over," I uttered as almighty essence filled my blade, taking the head of the angel before he could grasp what happened.

'Zax, I need some energy," I informed, as an endless flow of Dinivty came over me, trying to stop the wounds willed with Belphigors and the abyss intent. Falling to one knee, I groaned and immediately stood back up, leaping away from the corpse of Xentrix as it began to pulse.

"I AM IMMORTAL!!! DIE!!! YOU FILTHY ANIMAL!"

Witnessing the headless body of Xentrix rise, I frown, taking notice of the Concept of Death wrapped around his body.
