1023 This is your reality
Space shattered and light bent bent as three blurred figures clashed.
The golden light from the crackling lightning arcs failed to make a dent in the shining armor enveloping Varian. The armor was built from the usage of all his powers and was extremely condensed. It’s not as simple as stacking different defenses and for all the work it took, it did wonders.
“Die! You fucking monster!” Thunder King roared with rage as he punched at Varian with his lightning fists.
Thanks to his own physique as well as the blessing of his time power, Varian was very fast.
He parried all the punches of Thunder King as well as the occasional lightning daggers, bolts and swords that sneaked from behind.
Whenever his armor met with the abyssal’s lightning mana, it’d glow with a golden light and Varian’s own lighting mana would come forward, trying to fight and learn from the opponent’s mana as much as it could.
Thunder King wasn’t able to penetrate Varian’s defenses. But none of Varian’s attacks injured him either.
They appeared to be in a stalemate.
If that was it, Thunder King wouldn’t be so worried.
The point was—
Boom!
The Undead’s hand bones rattled as he was thrown back after punching Varian. Varian groaned lightly as his skin tore apart and began to bleed.
They two were also in a stalemate!
“Fuck! Fuck! Die you two beast! You inhumane monster! Why do you have so much power? Why?” Thunder King roared as he rained a flurry of punches on the enemy he hated the most.
Forget Fairies. Forget Zions. This guy might stop their rejuvenation.
Varian raised his arms and guarded his head from the mad Sovereign’s attacks and taking an opportunity, he punched back.
Thunder King turned into a mass of lightning and let Varian’s punch pass through him without any damage.
Elementalization was a great benefit.
But Varian’s psychic power as well another foreign psychic power struck him at the same time and nearly pushed him out of his state.
Thunder King jumped back in time and turned to normal. Sweat rolled down his forehead and he panted as he felt his heart leaping to his throat.
That was very dangerous. If he lost control of his elementalization and Varian attacked, he’d be dead!
‘My life of a hundred years would’ve ended! The hardwork I poured in for more than nine decades!’ Thunder King’s face twisted and he launched back at Varian like a hound that smelled blood. “Why? Why do you have such power? You aren’t a human, who are you? No, what are you? Only your skin is human, but you ar—umphhh”
Varian’s fist connected with his face and blew him back, breaking all the teeth in his mouth and causing him to vomit blood as if he was a fountain.
“You want our legacy, you can fight for it.” Varian ignored the Thunder King and grabbed the fists of the Undead Leader.
The powerful punches were stopped all at once and the Undead’s expression sank. Before he could even think, Varian’s head slammed into his and almost knocked his body back.
But Varian held his fists tight even as his arm bones cracked and threatened to tear out of his shoulders.
Then he slammed his head again. And again. And again.
The Undead Leader’s eyes began to dim as blood spilled out of his cracked skull. He tried to wrestle out of Varian’s grip but the young man held him like a vice and even as the Undead’s hand bones cracked and broke, he didn’t let go.
“Let him go!”
Thunder King reached them with bloodshot eyes and used his biggest lightning bolt on Varian.
But Varian simply smiled and pulled the injured Undead for defense at the last moment.
“Stop! No!” Thunder King’s eyes nearly popped out and he forcibly reduced the power of the lightning bolt at the last moment.
Even then, the Undead’s back was burnt to the point only half of the flesh was left and following a sizzling sound, the Undead fainted.
Varian showed him no mercy. With pure brute force, he ripped the arms of the Undead and threw him into a specialized jail in the ghostship.
“No! Stop it!” Thunder King’s eyes jumped with fear as Varian approached him with a kind smile.
“Why not?” Varian knocked him down with a punch and then rained down a dozen more.
Thunder King shifted to his lightning form but Varian just went on.
The cost of elementalization was too great for the abyssal ruler to maintain and eventually he turned back to his physical body.
And soon, Varian’s punches started to break his bones. That much wasn’t painful. But as he punched, Varian also used his psychic power to inflict pain on the abyssal ruler.
In normal times, this wouldn’t have worked. But with his serious injuries, Thunder King didn’t have the mental fortitude to fight back.

Varian’s fists continued to pummel his arms and legs.
Thunder King thrashed as he tried to escape but there was no chance. His arms and legs were crushed to a paste of flesh and bones.
After a long time, Varian stopped his punches and stared down. Thunder King had long fainted.
The mental torture coupled with the physical pain was too much even for a Sovereign.
But as the images of Neptune’s horror flashed in his mind, Varian grabbed Thunder King’s head and shoved two healing potions into his mouth. Then, he used his own planate powers to grow back the broken limbs of the abyss ruler.
“I…” Thunder King opened his eyes after a while, his face filled with fear and uncertainty. When he couldn’t feel any pain from his limbs, he muttered. “Is it all a dream?”
“No.” Varian’s face appeared in his now clear vision and it was smiling the most evil smile he had ever known. “This is your reality.”
Another round of pain begun.
