1235 Akonos(3)
Chapter 1235: Akonos(3)
Argh!
Stacy groaned in pain, as trying to activate the skill was immensely painful for her.
She gritted her teeth and pushed at it rather than stopping. The next moment, an invisible shockwave formed around her and began to expand.
As it expanded, it was destroying the fabric of space and time around her, rendering the area devoid of the two elements.
The Akonos finally released the skill as an energy beam generated from the energy ball and approached Stacy at a dangerous rate. The invisible shockwave around Stacy was the first to crash onto the skill.
BOOM!
A loud explosion rang in the area as energy powerful enough to destroy or even create emerged from the clash.
The skill used by Stacy wasn’t flashy at all. If not for the destruction it had caused to the surrounding area, no one would even know whether Stacy was using a skill. But the power generated from it was strong enough not only to face the [Akonos Blast] head-on but even push it backward.
The skill didn’t come without a small cost, as the gash around Stacy’s heart could be seen expanding. Her eyes had turned insanely red from all the pain, but she kept pushing herself.
Even if she died, she would only die here, so she pushed herself to bear the pain.

Roar! BOOM!
The Akonos let out a roar as it tried to throw everything it had at the attack, but its roaring sound was devoured by the continuous explosion ringing due to the clash between two skills.
The environmental advantage it had was slowly dwindling as whatever the energy came into contact with, it annihilated it.
Aakesh had only one purpose behind giving Stacy the skill, and that was to kill whoever tried to harm her. It was a purely destructive skill that didn’t care for the user. He had created it himself after the death of his lover. As his cultivation grew, he polished the skill and made it even more destructive.
Stacy’s body started to give up as it could no longer bear the toll of the skill. If not for the pain, she would have long lost consciousness.
ARGH!
Stacy released whatever she could at that moment, but her body couldn’t handle the pressure, and it immediately broke down. Her skin was the first to vaporize, followed by her inner organs, and then her bones. Soon after, nothing was left of her.
The same happened to the surrounding area, and it was entirely disintegrated, returning to its primal state.
The Akonos could only helplessly see the destruction devouring it as the invisible shockwave approached it and did to it what it had done to the surrounding area.
Fortunately for the Akonos, Stacy died earlier than it, so it became the winner.
Soon after releasing everything, Stacy found herself back in front of the square box.
The screen on the square box lit up immediately after, and ‘Failure’ appeared on the screen, written in large red words.
Stacy wasn’t as disappointed as she had expected due to losing the battle. Instead, she saw hope for victory.
If her body was in better shape, she would have outlasted the beast and won the battle. Her eyes then fell on the card compartment and found that the card had disappeared.
She needed to summon the beast again if she wanted to reinitiate the taming battle. There was the option of surprising the beast with the skill right after the fight started, but it wasn’t suggested.
The beast would always remember the taming battle, so it would only respect those against whom it lost fairly and squarely. If won by such tactics, the beast would never honor the owner, and the relationship between the two would only be based on the contract.

“Aakesh, do you know about Akonos?” Stacy asked after it was finally her turn to talk to Aakesh.
“Yes, the Akonos is one of the overlords of the Sacred Dimension like the Khostics, but they are stronger than your race collectively…” Aakesh nodded and introduced the Akonos to Stacy.
Stacy was surprised by the history of the Akonos. Only a few knew about the history of the Akonos and why they suddenly emerged.
The Akonos are a race of the Primordial Dimension, but they were shunted to the Sacred Dimension due to one deed committed by one of the two sons.
That action resulted in Akonos becoming an enemy with a powerful creature. The only reason the Akonos even survived was due to their creator.
The Akonos wasn’t a natural-born race and were created by the youngest Deva at that time. Out of respect for the Deva, the powerful being didn’t exterminate the Akonos.
But since the action demanded a punishment, the being banished them to the Sacred Dimension, with them never being able to return to the Primordial Dimension.

Tap! Tap! Tap!
Stacy was in the skill room while Aakesh was relaxing on his chair. The sound of footsteps approaching the store rang in Aakesh’s ears. In response, he opened his eyes and turned in that direction.
The next moment, a familiar face that Aakesh hadn’t seen for tens of thousands of years appeared in front of him. It was a customer during the first phase of the store, and to be precise, it was the first customer of the store since its inception.
In front of the store’s building stood a beautiful woman, but the scar below her left eye sullied her appearance. It was none other than Vanya, who was ready to give up her body to complete the purchase.
There was a gentle smile across her face as she looked at the building. If those who knew her saw her smiling, they would be shocked since Vanya’s personality was cold, and she was like a battle machine, willing to fight all the time.
Vanya then looked at her hand as a holy light engulfed her hands. She then touched the scar below her left eye using the light, and it completely healed.
