<h4>Chapter 202: Battle!</h4>
-----
Frank rushed towards Acacia Town, gritting his teeth as he enhanced his aura with both Death Attribute Mana and Starlight Mana, generating a fusion of both bright yellow light and dark ckness.
sh!
"Wait, Frank, don''t rush!" cried Kamei at Frank''s side, as she began to be left behind.
"Here!" said Frank, as he extended his aura of darkness and starlight grabbing Kamei and sticking her to his body!
"Uwah! Since when you could do that?!" asked Kamei.
"It''s named Soul Materialization," said Frank.
The Aura Frank used to coat himself was his soul itself,bined with the Domain of the Dracolich Ancestor, which he then used Soul Materialization to materialize and use as a limb, simr to a tentacle.
Through that, he was able to grab things with it, hit them, or many other things!
Boom!
Frank and Kamei suddenly nced at the town, as they saw that something within it began to ur, explosions urred, and zing mes covered arge area within the center!
Boom! Boom! CLASH!
"Those are… Gwendolyn''s Spells!" said Kamei.
"Gwendolyn?! Those giant spheres of mes? She had indeed grown stronger…" said Frank, as he suddenly saw something even more terrible, however.
FLASH!
"Eh?!" cried Kamei in surprise and horror.
Frank''s eyes opened wide.
A gigantic sphere of dark mes emerged at the opposite side where the spheres of red mesing from Gwendolyn were…
And Frank felt it.
This was the power of that "being".
Frank''s eyes shed with darkness and light, as he enhanced his speed to his limits!
"Grab me tightly, Kamei!" roared Frank, as Kamei tightly grabbed Frank''s torso with her legs!
FLASH!
Like a meteor of light, Frank rushed at an immense speed towards the city!
It was as if everything around him… slowed down!
The abyssal horror within Acacia Townughed eerily, raising its deformed and burnt ws as it copied Gwendolyn''s Spell and made it even better, generating a gigantic sphere of ck mes, big enough topletely wipe out the entire town if it were to fall into the ground!
Gwendolyn felt weak after using all of her Mana, and everyone else was preparing abined spell… But it was not fast enough!
"Shit, shit, shit! I cannot die here! Nngh… Move! Move…!" roared Gwendolyn, as she tried to muster all the Mana she could within her Mana Core, as a sh of tiny mes emerged, and a strong pain took hold of her head after having overused her Mana.
"Anghh…!"
Gwendolyn red at the abyssal aberrationughing eerily, its deformed insect-like face seemed toe straight from a nightmare...
"Weak!" it said, as the sphere of mes began to fall over Gwendolyn and everyone else…
Slowly, demise approached.
After having reached so far…
After having grown so strong…
Something that they could not simply stop with their efforts alone emerged.
Something abyssal and monstrously strong.
Did they had a chance?
Did they even stand a chance against it?
Perhaps.
But due to its amazing regeneration, monstrous nature, and insane copy-like ability, they were not capable of stopping it in time.
This was the strength of a mere pawn of the Demon King, the Chaos Child.
Just imagining how strong could be the actual being was a terrifying thought…
Gwendolyn began to think about all the regrets of her life, about her daughter, which she could not nce in time back…
She began to think about her entire life when her husband died when she went to war when she survived and managed to give birth to Annabelle… And about all those years she spent taking care of her.
It was arduous…
But it was all worth it, for her beloved daughter…
However, now, they were about to die against an unstoppable force, something that could very well represent the force of nature itself, an abyssal horror that came to exert retribution over the surface after having lived its entire life inplete darkness.
A chaotic being.
Between the many regrets within her mind, there was another little one.
"I should have told him that I liked him…" she sighed, thinking about a young man who had won her old and tired heart.
"Frank… sorry…" she muttered, as tears began to flow from within her eyes, as the dark mes slowly reached her skin…
"There is no need to be sorry. Actually, I am sorry for beingte."
A voice resonated within the darkness of endless despair.
Like a bright light prating an eternal night.
It came rushing from the very sky, like a brilliant sun bringing new hope.
And countless emotions bubbling within her heart.
Everyone else also heard such a voice.
Such a familiar voice…
Someone they missed for so long.
The figure of a young man emerged in front of Gwendolyn.
His build had berger and more muscr as if he had grown into a full adult now.
His back was so wide that it covered Gwendolyn almostpletely with its shadow.
Iridescent brown hair, and an Aura that transcended what she thought was normal.
Who else could it be?
"…Frank!" muttered Gwendolyn, as her eyes began to flow with tears.
"That''s my name," said Frank with a smile, as he raised his arms.
A shing bright light emerged from Frank''s hands, epassing everything.
"Combine Light Ray, Cosmic King Magic, Void Magic, Storm, Fire Arrows…"
Suddenly, the ray of light shaped itself as a giant sphere of light and darkness, shing against the sun made of ck mes!
BOOM!
"GRAKH?!"
The abyssal horror could not properly handle its own spell, and when Frank emerged and shed against it with his own spell imitating it, it lostplete control, and the spell was sent to the skies!
BOOOOM!
Both spheres of magic exploded high into the sky, generating enormous shockwaves which Frank and Kamei''s barriers managed to block, saving what remained of the town!
The monstrous creature red at Frank with surprise, for the first time since it arrived at the surface- no, for the first time since it became alive and aware of itself… it stepped back.
"Graaggaagggkkh…" it groaned, as it saw Frank re back at it.
"A fitting meal for my awakening… However, I might as well carry you elsewhere…" said Frank nonchntly, as he shed towards the monster with immense speed, leaving Kamei behind in the town, as he grabbed the creature with his materialized soul!
"GRAAKH?!"
The creature struggled, but Frank was way too fast, in a sh of light and darkness, they were already out of the town, flying high into the skies!
"GRUUUUUOOGGH!"
The beast suddenly broke out of Frank''s materialized soul, as it quickly generated dozens of spheres of ck mes, desperately throwing them at Frank!
However!
"Combine, Unarmed Fighting Technique, ws of the Dracolich, Cosmic King Magic, Void Magic,"
Suddenly, Frank''s arms fused with his very soul and aura, as if countless arms and ws emerged from his torso!
zing with dark and bright mes, enormous fists shed against each of the monster''s dark fireballs, making them explode one by one, generating an amazing spectacle of fireworks high into the sky!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
"G-GRAAKH!"
The beast doubted itself, but out of desperation and its instinct of survival, it decided to fire a giant sh of darkness and crimson light against Frank as he destroyed its fireballs!
BOOM!
However, Frank stopped it with an enormous shield made of light and darkness!
"Dark Starlight Aegis…" he said, as he had juste out with a new Spell that was an improvement to all of his barrier-type ones.
FLASH!
Like a meteor made of light and darkness, Frank reached the horror''s back in a second, startling it!
"Are you good at closebat?"
Frank''s fists once more created the illusion that they were endless, hitting the abyssal beast with thousands of jabs over all of its body, the beast''s entire body began to bulge as if it were being deformed by Frank''s mere fists!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"GRRRYYYAAAKKHHH…!"
The beast began to explode into pieces!
However, Frank knew its true nature!
It was an entity simr to a slime… which means!
"GRAKAKAH!"
It was able to regenerate!
Frank nced as he punched the beast, its entire slimy body began to wrap around his arms, crushing them with immense strength!
It was trying to devour Frank!
"Hah, so physical attacks don''t work… Very well then, let''s see who can eat who first, Gluttony!" roared Frank, as his aura suddenly shapeshifted into an enormous, abyssal jaw, which constantly twisted with various dark colors, roaring fiercely like a beast of the depths of hell!
"GROOOOOAAAARRR!"
CRUNCH!
The gigantic jaw crushed the monster''s entire slimy body, as it began to consume it!
The beast resisted however it could, trying to devour Frank''s arms, and managing to tear them apart!
However, Frank kept smiling, as blood did not evene out of his wounds, only bright light.
sh.
Suddenly, new arms emerged where the others once were!
"GRRAAKH!"
The beast was startled by Frank''s insane regeneration capabilities… they were simr to his!
Left without options, it recurred to the same thing as Frank, to devour him before he could devour it!
CRUNCH! CRUNCH! CRUNCH!
Both enormous abyssal monsters made of darkness tried to eat each other, crunching their very souls as a chaotic scene unfolded!
Frank kept infusing all of his Mana into the task, as he materialized his soul and generated enormous ws to keep the beast still!
"GRRRYYYAAAARRR…!"
The beast desperately attacked Frank with everything it had, throwing dark mes, arrows of darkness, rays of ck light, and more, shing against Frank''s soul!
However, Frank unleashed his own attacks, as countless meteors of bright light and dark ws exploded over the beast!
The beast began to feel it…
It is entire being… was being torn apart!
"GRRUUUUUOOOOOHHH…!"
Unleashing ast cry of agony, the beast struggled onest moment, before Frankpletely ate it through his Soul, slurping it like a noodle!
