Speed Is King

“Shhhh. I do not think he can pinpoint our position just yet. He would have moved to capture us by now if he knew where we are exactly. He’s just trying to flush us out by making us panic!” Elise Sands said to Elliot very softly.

However, apparently it wasn’t soft enough.

“HO HO HO! WE GOT A SMART ONE. YOU ARE RIGHT, GIRL. I CAN HEAR YOU, BUT I CAN’T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO… CATCH YOU!”

A powerful burst of energy suddenly exploded near them!

But it missed them by a relatively safe margin of several kilometers.

“He is making random swipes at our estimated position.” Elliot realized.

Whoosh!

Elise Sands quickly grabbed Elliot and brought them away as far as she could.

However, as soon as they appeared at the location where Elise Sands wanted to bring them to, she immediately let out a string of vehement curses.

“Damn it all! We are stuck in his spaceloop! I can’t lead us away!” Elise Sands said grimly.

“Have you tried using…”_{pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ}

“No. I need time to combine them.” Elise Sands said. “Can you…”

Elliot nodded confidently and was about to cast his Ascendant Rune powered blink spell when Elise Sands motioned for him to wait.

“HA HA HA! YOU THINK I WILL LET YOU GUYS GO SO EASILY? COME NOW. SHOW YOURSELVES AND LET’S HAVE A CHAT!”

Boom!

Another powerful burst of energy exploded once more, this time much nearer to them.

Elliot raised one eyebrow questioningly at Elise Sands.

Both knew that they probably wouldn’t be able to take even a single hit from Blytoros, and Elliot was very much ready to distance themselves from him!

Elise Sands made an exploding gesture with her hands and pointed at Blytoros.

Her simple gesture caused Elliot’s eyes to widen so wide that his eyeballs almost popped out!

“What the f***!! This crazy old woman want me to set off a nuclear fusion with a god-damned GOD as the raw material? She… She’s a genius!!!!” Elliot thought to himself as his mind raced to consider the most ridiculous idea he had ever entertained in his life. _{pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴoᴠᴇʟ}

However, he wasn’t sure if he could actually pull off such a feat.

His insanely powerful Cosmic Dragon Energy combined with energy manipulation principles from the Ascendant Rune would definitely be able to deal with the strongest Primals the Shadow Realm had to offer.

Elliot was even confident he could do it against the Saints of the Shadow Realm.

But to do it against a God…

Elise Sands nodded slightly ruefully and pointed at the massive planet while making the explosion gesture once more.

Elliot nodded.

They would search for a Primal level powerhouse or even a Saint level powerhouse on the Planet and then trigger an explosion.

Blytoros may be a God, but even a God would not be able to contain the nuclear explosion and the resulting chain of explosions from the ordnance on the planet.

Elliot grabbed Elise Sands’ arm and he blinked onto the planet towards the spot where the highest power fluctuation could be felt. _{ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​}

“HMMMMM? HOW RUDE. YOU ENTERED MY HOUSE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION?”

Blytoros said with an amused tone as his magnificent senses swept across the entire planet again and again.

“I AM VERY, VERY INTRIGUED BY YOUR POWERFUL STEALTH AND TELEPORTATION SPELLS. SHOW YOURSELF. I PROMISE I WON’T KILL YOU.”

His equally magnificent voice rumbled loudly as he followed the two to land on his humongous planet as well.

But because he wasn’t able to accurately detect them, he landed many thousands of kilometers away, much to Elliot’s relief.

“There.” Elise Sands pointed to the top of a massive 1 kilometer high tower that stood alone and proudly atop the middle of a mighty fortress that was at least a hundred kilometers in width and length!

“How many?” Elliot asked.

“Twenty four small. And one big.” Elise signalled in code with her hands, just in case Blytoros was still eavesdropping.

Elliot nodded as his eyes gleamed in excitement.

The twenty four Primals and one Saint level fighters represented a power that was already close to the overall power that their known universe’s top fighters could bring forth!

And here he was, about to turn them into nuclear fusion??

Elliot took a deep breath, and circulated his Cosmic Dragon Energy according to the unique principles of the Ascendant Runes.

As he did so, he did not hold back on his creativity as he included several powerful principles of fire which he had learnt from the new Ascendant Rune earlier.

A minute, then two passed.

Elliot did not stop weaving his powerful energy as he stuffed rune after rune into his ginormous spell.

He had to make sure that the explosion would set off as powerfully as possible.

“Ehm. May I remind you to be careful.” Gilgamar’s voice sounded in his mind.

“Careful? Look at what happened the last time you said that. Thank goodness I stuffed so much power into my spell! If not, the nuclear explosion wouldn’t have happened!” Elliot scoffed lightly at Gilgamar.

Of course he understood what Gilgamar was trying to say.

Unintended consequences, no matter how beneficial they turned out to be, were still unintended.

And that in of itself was a danger.

It was like a little city boy without any military background playing with a stick of dynamite!

But Elliot didn’t care.

Their enemy’s God level warrior was right there, and Elliot intended to set off the largest and most destructive explosion ever as a form of greeting to that damned God!

It would be “Hi!” In the most epic manner and proportions ever.

“You protoplasmic beings are always so hot headed.” Gilgamar sighed and then kept quiet.

Elliot ignored him and continued to work on his mega powerful spell before giving Elise a conspiratorial grin.

Elise nodded back and swallowed her saliva.

B-brmmmm.

The six sides of the cube appeared and covered the top floor of the tower instantly.
