Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

A draw.

Neo-Demons, Eldars, and Depravitas across the Daybreak Universe had a hard time going over the fact that there was no actual winner or loser in this fight. 

First of all, no one dared even insinuate that Venganza gave special treatment to Azazel just because she was a Depravita. The Revenge Thearch would never fall so low since he was smart enough to know that a genius like Azazel would not accept someone sheltering her from defeat.

The battle had truly been intense, with Azazel showing an even greater power than in any of her previous fights, and everybody saw how she and the Neo-Demon did stand up at the same time, just in the last second.

In the end, everybody, from the Sacred Kings to the children watching the fight, accepted that the battle between Azazel and Aion ended in a draw.

“Clap!”

It started with one, but everybody in the coliseum soon clapped their hands to the duo. There was nothing in their hearts but respect for the magnificent fight they just witnessed.

Although the burst of applause was directed toward the duo, the true focus was the genius Depravita that managed to end Aion’s winning strike. 

The idea that the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage would never stop winning was slowly growing in the mind of the people across the Daybreak Universe. Nevertheless, Azazel proved that everybody had a soft spot, no matter how great and mysterious they were, and she found Aion’s.

Venganza opened his palms and unleashed two streams of Depravita Aura that fell into the duo and began to heal any damage they received during the fight.

Azazel and Aion smiled as they felt the Revenge Thearch’s Depravita Aura filling them with energy. After a few seconds, they were able to stand straight without having to depend on their willpower to do it.

“I must thank you.”

Azazel’s mind was full of thrill over the fight’s outcome, but she was drawn back to reality by Aion’s words. She was surprised by them and was not the only one since it was the first time the Neo-Demon spoke with an opponent after the battle was over.

The Depravita was a little confused by the meaning of those words, but Aion soon carried on.

“I thought that my defenses toward illusion were good enough to face anyone in the same Rank, but it seems that for the first time in my life, I was overconfident. I am still far from powerful enough to face someone who truly puts their soul in the illusion path, but I will fix it.”

Aion’s eyes began to glow as a silver flame emerged in them.

Azazel was surprised to feel how Aion’s aura grew stronger, and awe appeared in her heart. Who would have thought not winning the battle would have helped the Neo-Demon grow more powerful?

“I hope we can fight again in the future.”

Aion clasped his hands toward Azazel before turning around and flying toward his family.

Venganza’s eyes narrowed as he stared at the Neo-Demon, and something told him that the soul defenses of this one would grow very powerful in the future.

‘Interesting.’

Unlike Ezequiel, who displayed concern about Aion’s enigmatic nature and background, Venganza was more curious and wanted to see what the young man was capable of.

“Good job”

Azazel heard the voice of the Revenge Thearch inside her mind, making the thrill in her heart reach an entirely new level before being teleported out of the arena.

Vengaza brought Noah into the arena before taking Sirik out of his Inner Universe. 

The Astral Fiend’s mind was still a little foggy after having his soul reconstructed, but as soon as he appeared in the arena, his instinct pushed him to a state of absolute focus.

Sirik saw Noah standing before him and understood it was time for him to fight again. It was clear that he lost his battle against Aion but was not disheartened since he gave everything he had, and that was good enough.

Noah stared at the Astral Fiend in front of him, and there was a sharp light in his eyes. The battle power that Sirik displayed during the Final Stage was enough to crush his body to pieces if he made a single mistake, so he could not allow himself to lose focus for even a second. 

Sirik’s eyes narrowed as he detected Noha’s battle intent and a small smile appeared on his face. The stronger the opponent, the greater the pressure he would feel, which would only push him to deploy more and more power. 

Venganza saw how Sirik and Noah were ready to fight and did not make anyone wait.

“Sirk of the Astral Fiend Lineage vs. Noah of the Daybreak Lineage. Fight!”

The sword runes across Sirik’s body set ablaze with black and white fire as he grabbed his shoulders and began to compress his body, exuding a reddish-blue vapor. Now that he had shown that ability, it would be an insult not to display it against Noah since it would be like saying that this one was not worthy of his full power.

Noah was more than fine with Sirik activating that ultimate technique, and he would have felt offended if this one did not. However, he did not wait for the Astral Fiend to finish with the transformation before attacking with his spear bathed in flaming soul force.

Aion may be fine waiting for the enemy to fully charge a technique, but Noah did not and would take advantage of any opening the opponent displayed, as he should.

Sirik saw how the spear bathed in flaming soul force fell toward his head, but he was ready for it. A burst of energy focused on his legs as he kicked the ground beneath him in such a way that he buried his body beneath the earth, dodging the flaming spear.

Noah saw how Sirik vanished beneath the ground and immediately pointed his right hand toward the hole in the earth, generating nine spheres of flaming soul force and sending them in.

“Nine Suns Supernova!”

“BOOOOOMMMMMMM”

A massive explosion occurred beneath the ground, cracking the earth and generating a pillar of dark purple flames that rose into the sky.

That attack had massive power, and its concentration in such a small space made its destructive force even mightier.

Noah’s eyes were sharp as he stared at the ground. His Nine Suns Supernova was powerful, but he saw Sirik’s defenses during the battle with Aion and knew it would take much more than that to win.

Just as Noah wondered from which part of the ground would the Astral Fiend emerge, a figure emerged from the pillar of dark purple flames, appearing right in front of him.

Sirik chose to rise inside that flaming soul force, enduring excruciating pain as his skin and soul burned so that he could take Noah by surprise, and it worked.

“¡BOOM!”

Sirik’s right fist had yet to land, but it had so much power that its movement generated a massive shockwave across the sky.

Noah’s eyes widened as he saw that fist advancing toward his face and felt a power that could shatter every bone in his skull. His battle instincts kicked in, allowing him to raise his spear at the last second to avoid a point-blank strike.

“BOOOOMMMMMMM!”

A massive explosion of kinetic force shook the sky when Sirik’s punch landed on Noah’s spear, sending this one flying away.

Sirik’s eyes narrowed as he knew Noah jumped back in the last instant to diminish some of his punch’s potency. A fierce smile appeared on his face as the thrill of battle made his bloodline burn, and he chased after the opponent.

Noah saw Sirik flashing toward him but was having a hard time regaining control of his body. Although he managed to diminish some of the force in the Astral Fiend’s punch, it still had enough to crack the bones on his arms.

Luckily for Noah, his bloodline healed his arms just in time to wave his spear, bathed in flaming soul force, at the Astral Fiend’s fist aiming at his heart.

“¡BOOM!”

An explosion of kinetic force and dark purple flames occurred when the spear and fist clashed.

Noah’s entire body trembled, and blood leaked from the corner of his mouth since the physical power in the first was much greater than the one in his spear, and it took everything he had not to be sent flying away.

Sirik might have won in the contest of physical might, but that did not mean he came untouched. Every time he touched that dark purple flame, part of his soul force was consumed. 

Any damage to his soul force speeded up the consumption of Sirik’s soul by the transformation, pushing him closer to unconsciousness and defeat.

This fight would be decided by what broke faster, Noah’s body or Sirik’s soul. Both Neo-Demons knew that and were ready to unleash everything they had to break the other to pieces.𝒐𝐯𝓵xt.𝐂𝓞𝔪
