The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order-Chapter 106

106 It’s over

“Lord Zarak.”

Cain was beyond surprised to see Zarak come out of nowhere and send the Abyssal Demon flying away. He then noticed how the blast blew everything in a five-meter radius to pieces. The only reason he was fine was the thick layers of incredibly dense Astral Wave protecting him.

‘Neither Lord Zarak nor the Abyssal Demon unleashed their full strength, yet they achieved this level of destructive might. A battlefield where they go all out would become a death zone for anyone at the Wave Warrior level, maybe even for weak Wave Champions.’ Cain could not hide his awe as he attempted to measure Zarak’s power.

The man pulled him out of danger before covering him with a mantle of Astral Wave and finally countering the Abyssal Demon’s fist. That reaction speed meant that Zarak could move several times faster than the speed of sound!

Suddenly Cain’s eyes narrowed as he looked into the distance. There was worry on his face, but he calmed when he saw that Levi was fine. Although boulders were covering Levi’s body and he was badly wounded, Cain used the [Pseudo Cellular Analysis] and knew his vital signs were stable.

Zarak only nodded toward Cain once he heard his name before his eyes became incredibly sharp as he focused on the enemy in the sky.

The Abyssal Demon regained control of his body once he rose around one hundred meters in the sky, and the first thing he did was unleash the full power of his Astral Wave.

“Boom!” A shock wave emerged from the Abyssal Demon as he released all of his strength, making it seem like the sky was trembling.

Cain’s eyes widened as he felt that immense amount of Astral Wave. If his energy pool was a pond, the Abyssal Demon’s body contained an ocean!

.....

The Abyssal Demon focused on Zarak before his eyes glowed with golden light. Electromagnetic energy emerged from his brain and fused with his Astral Wave, generating a force field that covered the entire forest!

Cain saw the golden purple force field covering the forest, and he was surprised to know that you could fuse your Ego Wave and Astral Wave to do something like that. He was sure there was nothing inside the force field that could hide from the Abyssal Demon.

“Oh, you are alone. I don’t know if you are courageous or simply looking down on me. I will admit you are strong, but the only reason you won that last clash was that I barely used a fraction of my power to give that brat a proper death.” The Abyssal Demon’s Wave Cloak began to burst, generating violent winds with incredible might. He stood in the sky without moving a finger, but his power caused a natural phenomenon similar to an Old World hurricane!

“Our cultivations are in two different leagues, and there is no way you could face me alone.”

Zarak did not move his eyes away from the Abyssal Demon. There was no fear in his gaze, and he began to smile as he let go of Cain and began to walk forward.

“You are incredibly powerful, and if I were to rely on my body and Astral Wave, my chances of victory are slim to none. However, the Astral Rebirth Path of Power is not my main path.” Zarak’s eyes began to glow with blue light, and then earthquakes covered the entire forest, shattering the ground beneath his feet.

Cain saw everything with shock and amazement. One stood in the sky, and the power in his body generated hurricanes, while the other walked through the earth, and the might of his mind triggered earthquakes.

The Abyssal Demon’s face grew solemn as he saw the forest trembling and breaking apart. His calm stance changed as he felt a great danger from the human.

“My name is Krollo Sarken. What is yours?” 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

“Zarak Valentine.”

As soon as Krollo heard that, the caution in his eyes grew even stronger, as did his Astral Wave’s output.

“So you are the infamous Soul Breaker Zarak. There is a large bounty on your head.”

Zarak’s smile grew wider as he heard that. “You are also infamous as well, Marquess Sarken.”

When Cain heard that, his heart grew agitated. Although he did not know just how powerful Marquesses were, he knew they were just beneath Dukes, and just like in the Godslayer Humankind, the Dark Races’ Dukes were supreme powerhouses.

“I have heard that you were a highly reclusive individual. I should count myself lucky to have the chance to fight you.” Krollo’s eyes glowed with even stronger golden light as his fighting intent exploded.

“Hmph, there is no way I could stand by and do nothing when your kind butchered weak and innocent people.” Zarak sneered, and his Ego Wave burst with even greater strength.

When Krollo heard those words, a complicated expression appeared on his face before he finally sighed.

“Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. That rule applies to all aspects of existence.”

Zarak did not say anything but understood the hidden meaning behind the Abyssal Demon’s words.

Without warning, Zarak’s Astral Wave burst with incredible power, and his Ego Wave began to materialize around his body.

Cain could not see the form Zarak’s Ego Wave took before this one flashed toward the Abyssal Demon, pushing this one hundred meters into the sky.

“?BOOM!

Zarak’s clash with the Abyssal Demon generated an explosion that seemed capable of breaking the sky. Despite the distance, the blast’s shock wave sent Cain flying away.

Cain was able to regain control over his body-mid air and land gently on the ground, but there was still a sense of awe in his heart. He was more than one hundred meters away from the explosion’s origin, yet he still was sent flying away.

“?BOOM!” “?BOOM!” “?BOOM!”

The explosions grew more distant as Zarak pushed Krollo higher and higher into the sky. The Godslayer Human and the Abyssal Demon moved several times faster than the speed of sound, and each of their movements generated consecutive sonic booms.

Cain attempted to follow the fight, but Zarak and Krollo were so far and moved so fast that he could only see the blasts generated by their collisions.

He did not attempt to run away since that would be futile. The only place he knew that could resist the might of Krollo was the Imperial Lightning Fort, and there was no way he could reach it before this fight was over.

Zarak and Krollo fought for over two minutes, generating more than one thousand sonic blasts all over the sky until one of them finally flew away.

Before Cain could even ask himself about the battle’s winner, Zarak appeared by his side. There were all sorts of wounds on his body, and it seemed that the Abyssal Demon had broken his right arm, but his aura was as strong as ever.

“You defeated that Abyssal Demon.” Cain’s voice was full of awe and admiration. Krollo was incredibly powerful, yet Zarak managed to force this one to run away after less than three minutes of fighting.

“It is not so simple. That man escaped because he knew that remaining here for a long time would immensely decrease his chances of leaving the Gaia Continent alive.” Zarak did not move his eyes away from the sky until Krollo’s figure vanished.

Zarak raised his hand, bringing Levi and the Atrox toward him. The same invisible force grabbed hold of Cain’s body. Cain felt that he could use his Astral Wave and Ego Wave to fight against it, but he obviously did not do it.

“According to my information, there was a woman with you two.” Zarak noticed the sorrow in Cain’s eyes as soon as he mentioned Beelze and understood what had happened.

“I see.”

The next second, Zarak rose to the sky alongside the two humans and the dead Atrox.

“BOOM!” A sonic boom emerged from their previus location as Zarak flashed at the speed of sound toward Korin city, bringing everybody with him.

For Cain, Levi, and Beelze, the trip toward the toxic lake took several hours, but Zarak reached the center of Korin City in a matter of minutes. And he would have been faster had he been alone.

Korin City faced the Wave Beasts’ stampede, and thousands of beasts surrounded it. Cain could count more than ten thousand of them, and on the northeast battlefield, there was a large panter-like beast with arcs of lightning covering its body.

“BOOM!” Suddenly a shock wave spread across the sky as Zarak unleashed the full power of his Astral Wave and Ego Wave.

When that incredible power appeared in the sky, beasts and humans stopped their fight, and all focused on it.

Zarak took one hundred obsidian needles from his space ring before reinforcing each with his Astral Wave. The blue light in his eyes grew even stronger as he waved his hand, sending them toward the Wave Beasts on the ground. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Cain had a perfect vision of the several battlefields spread around Korin City from his position in the sky. He was utterly shocked seeing hundreds of Wave Beasts fall dead to the ground each second.

In less than half a minute, all of the Wave Beasts, including the Stampedes Leader, were dead.

“It’s over,” Zarak spoke calmly as if that massacre was nothing in his sight.

A monstrous red light emerged in his eyes as Cain saw the more than ten thousand Wave Beasts’ death.

‘I will have that power!’
