Chapter 423 - The Duel Of The Century
Chapter 423: The Duel Of The Century
In the sky, faced with Augustus’ diamond-tier divine fire, Watson’s expression changed slightly. “Augustus, it seems that your strength has indeed undergone an earth-shattering change compared to a few days ago. May I ask what caused you to obtain such a great improvement?”
“It’s hatred or the desire to fight. Whatever it is, it’s fine! Watson, do you think I’ll tell you what my ability is? If you want to know about my ability and its effects, you can experience it in the battle,” Augustus caressed his right hand and said with a twinkle in his eyes.
A person who told his ability to his enemy before the start of the battle was a fool; there were no benefits other than showing off in front of the enemy and admiring the enemy’s despair. The enemy he was facing at the moment was not a weakling. He had to be 120% focused to have a chance of winning.
Augustus did not have any other thoughts after that battle. He only had one thought—to win.
Thinking back to what he had experienced in the past two days, there were a few times when he wanted to give up because of the pain. However, thinking about how he was hung on the door of the Holy Dragon Tavern and humiliated by others and how he was sitting in a wheelchair when he returned home, Augustus gritted his teeth and persevered. He heard the maids discussing him in secret several times. Augustus persevered.
As the most powerful genius in the Campbell family, he had yet to make any corresponding achievements before he became a clown in the eyes of others. How could he bear that? If he could not turn into a shining sun in the sky, at least, he could turn into a fleeting meteor. Even if it were a brief moment of victory, at least he would have tasted it.
He would burn himself and step on Watson, turning himself into the most famous meteor in the history of the kingdom.
“Fifth-era holy relic, Nine-headed Demonic Dragon’s Sigh, maximum power!”
Augustus twisted the glove on his right hand. His right hand had been transformed into a fifth-era diamond-tier holy relic. It no longer contained a trace of flesh and blood. It was not just his right hand. Every organ in his body, except his brain, had been transformed into various diamond-tier holy relics. Those diamond-tier holy relics complemented each other, and with their amplification, his strength was comparable to that of a starlight-tier existence.
The technology contained in the numerous holy relics was initially the technology of the gods. At that moment, the integration of those technologies allowed him to control their power. There was no doubt that Augustus, at that moment, was the strongest puppet that the Campbell family could ever create. It was a well-deserved starlight-tier puppet. In the past, the Campbell family could not create anything similar, and it was likely that they would not be able to replicate it in the future.
The starlight tier was the highest in the world. Even Reid was only a peak diamond-tier elite. Therefore, Newman had the confidence to say that Augustus could defeat Reid for that reason. Knowing Augustus’ current strength, Newman and Armand did not doubt the outcome of that battle. Instead, they were worried that Augustus would release too much power and kill Watson.
“Do you feel fear, Watson? The last time you came to the Campbell family, you displayed your might and forced everyone to kneel. This time, it’s your turn to kneel to the Campbell family. Augustus’ full power can reach the starlight tier. With that thing as the heart, there is no doubt that Augustus is now a living God in the human world. All the holy relics are connected. That was something that I didn’t expect. Therefore, the result has far exceeded my expectations. That can only be called a miracle.”
Somewhere in the audience stand, Armand looked up at the sky. ‘That is what our family’s most outstanding genius got in exchange for not being able to improve his strength for the rest of his life. Watson, you should have a good taste of it! You’re Reid and Antonio’s disciple, but so what? Such a false reputation is not worth mentioning in front of true enlightenment. It is precisely because of that enlightenment that it can trigger an equal miracle. Next, you will see the hell that Augustus had prepared for you. The pain that Augustus experienced during the process of transformation will be repaid to you tenfold and hundredfold. Cry bitterly in despair because of that.’
As if he had already seen what Watson would experience, Armand closed his eyes gently; he looked victorious.
Under the watchful eyes of the audience, the pale blue flame in the sky had arrived in front of Watson. That breath was the flame of a divine dragon that was about to break through to the starlight tier, sealed by the elites from the fifth-era because it was already standing at the edge of the starlight tier. That dragon’s breath was not an ordinary dragon’s breath. It was tainted with divinity and could transform everything attached to it into flames of the same origin.
Previously, Casey held a platinum-tier weapon and summoned a powerful platinum-tier waterspout for an attack, but the flame burned the water element to ashes. The materials were not objects but the energy factors and the rules themselves.
At that moment, Watson was facing countless blue flames. He pulled the sword on his back and slashed it downward.
“Diamond-tier sword technique, Water Moon Divine Dance!”
A long river made of pure sword aura appeared and rushed toward the raging flames. If the fire released by Augustus were the eruption of a volcano that would never be extinguished, then the sword technique released by Watson was an unfathomable, violent ocean.
The monstrous flames collided with the ocean that filled the entire divine kingdom, causing a loud explosion. It was as if thousands of bombs had detonated in the divine kingdom at the same time, causing the entire divine kingdom to shake non-stop.
It was still a little difficult for the flames to assimilate the sword aura as thick as water. The two types of attacks were in a stalemate, and they could only mutually cancel each other out.
“Watson, it looks like you can block my attacks. You are powerful, indeed! However, that flame is only the weakest of all my attacks. Can you still block the following attacks?”
Augustus looked as if he was not surprised that Watson had such strength. He extended his left hand as he spoke and clasped them together.
“Fifth-era holy relic, the Nine-headed Demonic Dragon’s Sigh, and Fifth-era holy relic, Thor’s Hammer, a temporary merge! Starlight-tier Kingdom of Thunder and the God of Fire’s descent.”
As his hands joined, the black gloves covering Augustus’ hands suddenly emitted the aura of thunder and lightning and dense billowing flames. Two kinds of fluctuations spread into the air. Augustus’ left side turned into a sea of golden lightning, while the right side of his body was burned to half the sky by the pale blue flames.
At the same time, the gloves on his hands were penetrated by two powerful elemental forces, turning into ashes in the air, before revealing Augustus’ hands.
They were not human hands but were filled with a metallic luster and were forged into a magical tool in the shape of a palm. There was a hole at the tip of each finger on the magical tool in his right hand, and pale blue flames shot out of the hole. There were also holes in the gaps between each finger. There were a total of nine holes, which looked very scary. His left hand was even more peculiar. The five fingers were bent at a strange angle, and the fingers were thicker than the roots. They looked like five hammers. When Augustus clenched his fist, the five fingers combined looked more like a hammer.
The most surprising thing was that the hammer-shaped palm was not directly connected to Augustus’ left hand. Instead, it passed through a layer of fine electric arcs and floated at a weak distance above the arm, shining with a metallic light. It seemed like that arm could fly out at any time.
As Augustus clenched his left and right arms, his arm flew out as expected. His two fists merged in midair, and the hammer-shaped fingers stabbed into the empty space of the other hand seamlessly. The golden lightning and pale blue flames no longer spread out in all directions. Instead, they merged and turned into blue-gold lightning and fire.
The flames and the sea of lightning that appeared beside Augustus also merged. After the two powers merged, they formed a golden and brilliant divine kingdom in the air, forming a square. Streaks of blue-gold lightning and fire flashed across the walls outside the divine kingdom, emitting a divine radiance.
After the divine kingdom appeared, the one initially used as a battlefield in the sky, constructed by Antonio and the other mages, began to collapse as it shook. Cracks appeared in the temples and the arenas. That scene made the audience below cry out in surprise.
“What kind of strength does Augustus have? That is too terrifying. He can’t even destroy the battlefields created by Master Antonio and the others.”
“Also, what’s wrong with Augustus’ hands? Those don’t look like human hands. Instead, they look like magical tools.”
Many people were surprised by Augustus’ power, but they were even more surprised that Augustus’ hands did not look like human hands. It seemed like Augustus had invested a lot to win that competition.
“Newman, what’s going on? Did Augustus get the modification from the puppet that Father had prepared?” Freya also noticed Augustus’ strange behavior and could not help but ask.
“That’s right. With Father’s modification, Augustus has become the most powerful puppet in the history of the Campbell family. Most importantly, Augustus still retained his consciousness, but his body had been modified! Even if his body is damaged, we can still change the holy relics that make up his parts—he won’t die. So, he is hundreds of times more powerful than the so-called King of Time puppet that Watson created,” Newman responded proudly.
“Transforming himself into a puppet? Augustus is so cruel to himself!” Freya could not help but sigh. McGee, who was not far away from her, looked at the sky with envy in his eyes. “No wonder Father did not tell us. It turns out he used the holy relics to transform Augustus’ body! Those holy relics are our family’s treasures. Any one of them is priceless. Father has also used so many holy relics on Augustus. Judging from the kid’s current strength, he must have used quite a number of them. Even if Augustus has always been a genius of the Campbell family, that is too biased.”
McGee did not have any children. Otherwise, Augustus would not have become the future successor of the family. He had no objections to making Augustus the head of the family. After all, Augustus was very outstanding. However, giving the family’s joint assets to Augustus without his consent made him feel very troubled.
Everyone had their own thoughts. Watson felt intense pressure when he was facing Augustus’ Thunder Fire Divine Kingdom. Among all the people he had fought, the only one who could use the divine kingdom was Master Reid. However, at that moment, Augustus gave him the same feeling as when he first came to the capital to face Reid.
‘What a powerful strength! I didn’t expect Augustus’ strength to rise to such a level in such a short time. Are his hands’ made of holy relics? I feel that they are emitting the same aura as the holy relics. In order to defeat me, he had fused them into his body? To be able to achieve such a degree is truly amazing. It seems like I have no choice but to raise my level.’
Unable to help but lament that Augustus could withstand the courage for the fusion, Watson’s expression became serious. Since Augustus insisted on defeating him, he had to use all of his strength to show respect to such an opponent.
He needed the Kingdom of the Sword and the Kingdom of Poison. “Peak starlight-tier skill, Dual Divine Kingdom!”
Opening his left and right hands, letting the Sacred Sword of Time float in front of him, black sticky liquid appeared in Watson’s left hand. The black liquid expanded and spread on Watson’s body, turning into a pitch-black divine kingdom that emitted a terrifying aura. The walls on the surface of the divine kingdom were filled with fangs. On the other side of the pitch-black divine kingdom, a brilliant giant sword-shaped divine kingdom appeared in Watson’s right hand. The blade of the sword shot straight into the sky, and the sword aura swept across.
The two divine kingdoms formed a brand-new double divine kingdom in front of Watson. Pitch-black swords grew out of the huge mouth on the surface of the toxic divine kingdom, and the sword aura that rushed into the night was wrapped in a layer of poison that could corrode everything.
The two opponent’s divine kingdoms collided, emitting a loud noise that made one’s scalp go numb. The lightning and flames on the surface of the Thunder Fire Divine Kingdom collided with the toxic sword from the Dual Divine Kingdom, and the thunderous fire purified the poison. After that, it was cut off by the sword aura and turned into more lightning and fire.
A series of explosions filled the entire sky. The battlefield that Antonio had built was already on the verge of collapse. Then, it ultimately gave.
“Quick, everyone, form a protective barrier. We need to prevent those attacks from spreading to the kingdom.”
Antonio shouted as he flew to the sky. The simple staff in his hand were pointed to the void. Six huge balls of light instantly appeared in the sky. Under Antonio’s control, the six huge fountains gathered and became an unbreakable protective barrier.
After all, the energy of the magical fountains was endless. If they wanted to break that protective barrier, they would have to use a power that surpassed the origin power of the world.
After Antonio used the origin power, Reid did not stay idle. Numerous threads appeared around his body. Those threads intersected and turned into a huge web of fate, which was written with indestructible words.
The most unbreakable thing was undoubtedly destiny. The Unbreakable Destiny was Reid’s second line of defense.
While the two of them were doing that, King Landhar III glanced at them. “Antonio, Reid, it seems like your strength is different from what I remember. It appears that you have become much stronger. Did I see it wrong?”
“Your Majesty, you are right. Reid and I have improved our strength, indeed. It must have been because we’ve been competing with each other for the past few days,” Antonio explained casually. King Landhar III obviously did not believe him. “Your strength improved because of sparring? Does the improvement have anything to do with Watson?”
With the help of the gods, King Landhar III was also a peak diamond-tier elite. However, he had always pretended. With his knowledge, he could see that Antonio and Reid were both starlight-tier elites. In addition, Christina, who performed beyond his expectations, and Casey, who did not manage to pass the first round with gold-tier strength and platinum-tier weapons, were also included in that.
‘I remember that their strengths were not that great before, especially Casey. As one of the Ptolemy family’s heirs, he had always neglected his job. Furthermore, the head of the Ptolemy family had come to plead with me, which was why I turned a blind eye to the fact that he had taken a potion to increase his strength! However, in just a few short days, that trash has actually turned into a gold-tier elite. With the addition of platinum-tier weapons, his strength was not weaker than ordinary platinum-tier weapons. I feel that everyone who has come into contact with Watson has become stronger. That is not surprising. After all, Watson possesses the sun fruit and the method to create platinum-tier weapons. However, the strength displayed by Antonio and Reid is not something that those two things can explain.’
King Landhar III pondered that. He felt like Watson could do even more outrageous things. He did not know what those things were for the time being, but he was certain that as long as he could discover Watson’s secret, he would definitely be able to strengthen the kingdom’s strength.
‘The premise is that Watson must obtain the final victory. It’s hard to say whether Watson can defeat Augustus in the current situation. If I had known earlier that Augustus would dare to fuse the holy relics into his body to win the competition, I would have changed the order of battle no matter what.’
King Landhar III looked at the sky. No matter how much confidence he had in Watson, he was uncertain about it. He felt the power of at least dozens of holy relics from Augustus. It was hard to say if Watson could still win under the attack of so many holy relics.
At the audience stand.
“Princess Ash, who do you think will win between Augustus and Watson?”
Douglas was quite shocked by the battle in the sky. When Ash said that Watson was equivalent to thousands of Harolds, he did not believe her, but after that, he believed it. He did not expect that Watson could not only use the divine kingdom, but he could also use the power of two divine kingdoms. He was a monster.
If he were to face Watson, he would probably be crushed into minced meat. At the same time, he admired Augustus very much. Even though he had used various holy relics to become so strong, Augustus was also a top-notch elite as he could take Watson head-on. Initially, the Winter Nation’s elites had a natural sense of superiority toward the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
They believed that those who had been through cruel battles would not be inferior to any beginners in the kingdom. Then, they understood what it meant to say that there was always someone better. Just the strength that Watson and Augustus had displayed at that moment, they would definitely be regarded as monsters in the Winter Nation.
Ash shook her head with difficulty and rubbed the space between her eyebrows as if she had a headache. “I can’t tell. The energy profiles of the two of them are too huge and too chaotic at the same time. I’m already exhausted just by being able to sense the power of the two of them. I don’t have the spare energy to distinguish which person’s energy profile is stronger? Furthermore, the aura around both of them is still growing. It seems like the attack is just the beginning for them.”
“Master Antonio and Master Reid have already engaged in their power. It seems that I don’t need to suppress my own strength.”
Watson was relieved when he felt the two layers of protective barrier that had been reinforced. Augustus, who was opposite him, did not seem to plan to hold back from the beginning. After the Thunder Fire Divine Kingdom did not work, the thick clothes around Augustus’ body exploded, revealing his steel body. One could clearly see various holy relics of different styles on his body. They were fused in a strange way.
At the joints of each holy relic, there were joints made of gears in the shape of a clock. Even though the internal organs of Augustus’ body were hollowed out and replaced by spherical holy relics, the heart was a clock made of gears of all sizes. It looked like the core of the King of Time that Watson had fused. Augustus had inherited many of those points instead of only one core.
“Watson, are you shocked? With my current appearance, I’m afraid you no longer regard me as a human. It doesn’t matter. As long as I can defeat you, it doesn’t matter even if I’m not treated as a human.”
“Augustus, I really don’t regard you as a human. I regard you as my opponent.”
“Opponent?”
Seemingly not expecting Watson to say that, Augustus was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled. “So, that’s what you think. That’s right. We are opponents, the best opponents in the world.”
Augustus extended his arms toward the sky. The Holy Fist separated and returned to his hand. At the same time, he used his right hand to take off his face. Augustus’s originally handsome face instantly turned into a mask with two rubies embedded in it. Under the mask was a smooth metal face.
It turned out that Augustus’ body was not the only thing that was embedded in the mask. Even his face was embedded with a holy relic.
“Third-era holy relic, activate!”
The mask immediately assembled freely in the air and turned into a giant face as big as the sky. The face and the clouds were combined. It seemed like a creature was so huge that it could not be more significant than the sky. It put its face into the world and peered at the audience.
That strange face in the shape of the sky had two rubies that were as hot as the sun in its eyes. That scene made many of the audience below look terrified.
“What is that?”
“The third-era holy relic, the Void Relic. It’s ranked in the top three among all the holy relics in the Campbell family. Father gave that holy relic to Augustus willingly?”
McGee looked at the huge face in the sky in disbelief.
The Void Relic was a product from the third era. It could open a void and guide the sun’s power to the ground even though the sun was very far away from the land. Therefore, even when a platinum-tier fire-elemental mage used fire element magic, the amount of fire element absorbed was still limited. However, if the sun was very close to the ground, even if a mage could still absorb fire elements, it could destroy the world.
At that moment, under the relics’ effect, the atmosphere in the sky seemed to have been destroyed. Behind the huge mask, the halo of the sun got bigger. It seemed to be getting closer to the ground. Meanwhile, the relic’s eyes, the two gemstones that symbolized the sun’s power, were also getting brighter.
The power of the sun did create not only flames but also light. Even though Antonio and Reid had set up two layers of protection, the overly intense light still penetrated through the protective shield and fell to the ground, causing a layer of flames to burn on the ground. Some parts of the audience seats were also burning, making many of the audience stand up screaming.
Furthermore, at the center of that power, Watson had already started to melt under the sun’s illumination. Watson’s clothes, including his skin, had also begun to melt. His clothes were platinum-tier. However, they were not enough to withstand the sun’s power.
“Watson, what do you think? It is one of the strongest holy relics in my body! If you can’t withstand that level, then I can only say that you’ve lost this battle.”
As the sun’s power approached the sky, Augustus’ body, made of holy relics, also began to melt. Metallic liquid flowed out of his metallic arms or calves. Clearly, even though those were holy relics, the products of other eras could not withstand the power from third-era holy relics.
“Augustus, I have to admit that that move of yours is very powerful, but it is not too unbearable for me.”
Watson looked up at the sky and stretched out his hands. “Diamond-tier chaos magic, Eye of the World! Source of chaotic magic, full liberation!”
There was a buzz!
With a loud sound, a huge gray ball suddenly appeared above Watson’s head. That gray ball was like a newborn planet, its size larger than the six magic origins that Antonio had summoned combined. That gray ball was the source of the magical power contained in Watson’s body. The source of magic power has existed since several years ago. After several years of nourishment and the absorption of faith, at that moment, the source of chaos elemental magic had expanded to the starlight tier.
The moment it appeared, the Void Relic that had occupied the sky was immediately pushed aside. Cracks even appeared on the mask. Augustus’ proud expression changed for the very first time.
That was Watson’s trump card. Although the Kingdom of the Sword and the Kingdom of Poison were also at the starlight tier, they could barely reach it. They did not have enough power; they could not reach the true power of a divine kingdom.
However, at that moment, the source of chaos elemental magic in Watson’s body truly contained the starlight-tier energy. The moment it appeared, it was as if a gray sun had appeared in the sky. It blocked the solar energy that was getting closer to the top of his head in an instant. It was not only the solar energy, but even the two layers of protective barrier that Antonio and Reid had released below were corroded into a thousand holes after touching the source of chaos elemental mana.
Under Augustus’ attack, the protective shield barely allowed the sunlight to seep through. At that moment, a large number of attacks fell. A few wisps of green-gray chaotic airflow fell from the ground, instantly corroding the ground clean.
That scattered attack had such power. When the source of chaotic magic appeared in the sky, it immediately turned into a massive eyeball without pupils, inlaid in the sky, and dyed more than half the sky gray. It was as if the sky had opened its eyes. Wherever the gray eyeball passed by, everything disappeared.
Whether it was creatures, things, air, or energy elements, they were all wiped clean.
Augustus’ Void Relic was a peak diamond-tier item, and the spell that Watson released was also a diamond-tier spell. Antonio created it after he obtained the Crown Staff. In addition to the characteristics of chaos magic, its power was no weaker than a peak diamond-tier spell. Most importantly, Watson had the support of a starlight-tier power, while Augustus did not. Therefore, Augustus had begun to retreat.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Cracks appeared on Augustus’ body with a crisp sound. Soon, Augustus’s body turned from a metal body to a semi-liquid body.
“Watson, you are powerful, indeed. It seems like I have no choice but to use my strongest ability! All holy relics are completely fused, and they are operating at their maximum power!”
Following Augustus’s shout, all the holy relics on his body stopped melting and turned into ashes. Melting meant that they were wiped out by the chaotic airflow and were passively destroyed, and burning was Augustus’ resistance by fully erupting all the energy contained in his body.
As Augustus’ entire body burned, his body appeared to have the color of a star. The star-like radiance contained the brightness of divinity. Dozens of holy relics fully erupted. At that moment, Augustus also possessed the same level of starlight energy as Watson.
The green-gray chaotic airflow and the burning holy relics collided in the air, canceling each other out. For a moment, the world was divided into two colors.
The onlookers were dumbfounded.
“Forget about Watson. Why is Augustus so strong? How many holy relics has he fused with? Sure enough, the Campbell family has lied to us. They said that they did not have any more holy relics for us, but what are those?” Antonio was surprised by Augustus’ power. He was furious with the Campbell family.
If he had known earlier, he would have taken all the holy relics from the Campbell family. That way, Watson would not be in danger.
“Let’s not talk about that for now. The most important thing now is to maintain the protective barrier in the sky. Those two little monsters’ battle fluctuations are no less than mine! I’m afraid that either of them can stand on equal footing with me, and they are only teenagers.”
As he sighed at Watson and Augustus’ evilness, Reid tried his best to fill up the empty space in the sky with a barrier.
The two elites sighed, and the spectators did the same.
“What is that? That’s a genius? Such a person should be called an evildoer.”
Douglas stared at the sky; his mouth was wide open. He thought that the Winter Nation would bring the Holy Dragon Kingdom to a crushing blow. Well, it was indeed a crushing defeat. However, it seemed like they were the ones crushed.
“Just watching those two people fight makes my eyes hurt. The Holy Dragon Kingdom’s geniuses are really terrifying. It seems like the Winter Nation’s plan for an attack will have to be postponed. I have to go back and tell Mother about this so that we can find a countermeasure.” Ash rubbed her eyes as she lowered her head. She had not dared to watch the battle between Watson and Augustus because it seemed like a fight of that level was enough to burn her eyes into two holes.
It was not only Ash, but the two envoys with King Landhar III were also staring at the sky in a daze. The red wine glasses in their hands had fallen to the ground at some point. The wine had soaked their pants, but they did not know it.
“Envoys, since you are so engrossed in the fight, I wonder what you think of the geniuses in my kingdom?”
King Landhar III coughed slightly. Then, the two envoys woke up from their excitement and shock. They hurriedly dealt with their wet pants in embarrassment. At the same time, one of them said, “No, nothing much. The Holy Dragon Kingdom’s geniuses are powerful, indeed. This fight has broadened our horizons. That’s all.”
As for the two envoys, they had long forgotten their purpose at the Holy Dragon Kingdom. Their attention was completely drawn to the battle outside. The fight between Watson and Augustus did not seem like a battle between two youths. Instead, it seemed like two gods were clashing. If Antonio and Reid had not protected them, the entire capital might have been razed to the ground.
Half an hour ago, the two envoys looked relaxed. However, at that moment, they were afraid that if they were not careful, they would die there due to the aftermath of the battle.
The princes also stared at the sky in a daze.
“Is that Watson really that powerful?” The Eldest Prince muttered to himself. “No wonder Father wants that young man as Kiana’s husband. Father must have known about that young man’s strength.”
“I told you that Father would not do something so meaningless. We thought that that boy wasn’t good enough for Kiana, but we were wrong! Augustus’s body had been fused with dozens of holy relics, so it’s not scary for his strength to rise to that level. What’s scary is Watson! He only relied on his own strength. What a monster!” The Second Prince sighed.
The Third Prince was similarly shocked, but he held back his shock and looked at his sister. “Kiana, Watson is powerful, but if you don’t like him, I will still ask Father not to force you to be with him! What’s important is not Father’s arrangements but your thoughts. ”
“No need, Third Brother, I think I can accept Watson! No, I should say that my future husband has to be him.”
Kiana clasped her hands together; her expression was excited as she looked at the sky. A strange redness appeared on her cheeks, her eyes were blurred, and her pupils were in the shape of a heart as if she was drunk.
Her future husband must be a hero. He must be well-read and have extraordinary strength. She did not know whether Watson was well-read, but his strength was too remarkable. She only needed to look at the huge eyes in the sky. He was a human, but he could control the world. How powerful was that strength? That gray ball was comparable to the sun, and the energy was charming. She really wanted to be washed away by the power in it.
“Kiana, are you secretly fascinated with him?” The Third Prince, who was familiar with his sister’s arrogance, saw his sister’s fascination. He looked at her with an odd expression.
He knew Kaia well. He understood that his sister had a strange fetish called masochism.
Perhaps it was because the education she had received since she was young was too strict, causing Kiana’s psychology to be somewhat deformed. The harsher the environment, the stronger the power she faced, the more excited she would be. However, she seldom experienced that in the kingdom, so Kiana rarely fell ill. However, at that moment, Kiana’s masochistic tendencies were triggered when she saw Watson’s power.
“Yes, my dear brother. After the battle ends, I’ll have to trouble you to request for Watson’s presence in my room! I can’t wait to discuss the use of that wonderful power with him. ”
Kiana panted heavily, and her gaze became increasingly blurred. The three princes beside her raised their hands to palm their foreheads. Their younger sister was utterly infatuated with Watson. Initially, they were ready to help Kiana escape from the marriage, but it seemed like Kiana had fallen into it herself.
Everyone had different reactions to the fight, but the battle in the sky continued.
Each of the contestants was fighting against the starlight-tier energy. The aftermath of the starlight-tier battle spread out in all directions, and soon, the world was almost shattered into pieces. Meanwhile, Watson and Augustus had also given up on all sorts of flashy skills. They gave up on using their weapons and simply threw punches and kicks at each other.
Watson’s fist landed and sunk into Augustus’ face.
Augustus responded with a kick, leaving a clear footprint on Watson’s chest.
Both of them had smiles on their faces. It was a battle where they were pursuing victory, and at the same time, it was also a battle where they were enjoying themselves.
“Watson, it’s really great to be able to have such a battle with you. Now, I’m actually somewhat reluctant to kill you.” Augustus ignored his heavily injured body and panted heavily. His expression was somewhat sorrowful.
“Since that’s the case, how about you stop and admit defeat?”
“It’s impossible to admit defeat. It’s impossible! I’ve already made a plan. I won’t lose this battle, not even if I die! From the beginning, the battle between us has been recorded in the kingdom’s history. As for now, it’s time to put an end to this battle.”
Augustus reached out with his hand and inserted it into his heart, revealing a satisfied expression. Then, he crushed the Bell of Life that was supporting his heart. “This is my final move. It’s an attack that surpassed the level of ordinary starlight-tier—Infinite Time Acceleration. Turn into ashes with me, Watson!”
With Augustus’ voice, the time in the sky accelerated. In just an instant, it was equivalent to a thousand years. The source of chaos-elemental magic and the sun’s power around their bodies rapidly expanded, then gradually withered.
An instant was equivalent to a thousand years, and a few minutes were equivalent to tens of millions of years. In such a long time, no matter what it was, it would decay, whether it was living creatures or powerful energy.
