The Walker Of Voids-Chapter 140 Genocide [4] - Null’s Awakening

The creature's eyes were dark and cold, as if he had seen through Lloyd's thoughts.

Lloyd quickly burned the chained monster to the ground using his purple flame before he turned around and crouched down, his violet eyes burning brightly through his contact lenses.

[Lightning Fusion]

Lloyd quickly became a bolt of lightning as he shot through the air and appeared before his enemy in less than a second, yet instead of showing a look of surprise, the shorter monster looked intrigued while, the bigger one smiled.

'I don't know why you're smiling for.' Lloyd thought as his eyes locked with that of the larger monster.

[Void Gaze]

The bigger monster froze while Lloyd flashed toward him, yet when his blade was a single inch away from its target, it was quickly deflected out of his hand.

Lloyd could only helplessly watch his katana fly above him, and a small grey fist descended upon his abdomen, shooting him into the ground and causing him to bounce like a rock skipping on water.

Finally controlling his momentum, Lloyd was able to stop in before being shot out of the barrier, but when looking down at his body, all he could see was that his skin was filled with cracks, most of them beginning on his abdomen and reaching all the way up to his face.

*"Fuck... Are you the one, our lord has warned us about?" The monster spoke with an intrigued tone when he saw the cracks all over Lloyd's body, yet Lloyd couldn't understand him, so he didn't bother answering the question.

Throwing his hands to either side, Lloyd created hundreds of tiny magic bullets made out of fire, darkness, and lightning, before being coated with a layer of void energy that made the monsters widen their eyes.

It was an element unlike anything they had seen before, and it wasn't even just that. Lloyd's control over his affinities was impeccable. It was a miracle that the bullets hadn't self-imploded when he tried to put more than one element in them.

However, only the bigger monster felt any signs of danger from the bullets, yet he knew that his master would save him since such a weak spell was nothing to him.

Well, that was until-

*SNAP*

[Aspect of Void]

Snapping his fingers, Lloyd activated [aspect of void], causing the bullets to whirl as they became fully purple before being condensed into a small spherical bullet with the weight and power of tank ammunition.

[Aspect of void] was an enchanting and enhancing ability, so Lloyd was going to use it that way.

The smaller grey monster crouched down and shot toward Lloyd as fast as he could, but by then, it was already too late.

With a swipe of his hands, Lloyd launched the bullets.

*Swoosh*

The bullets tore through the air and moved like they were homing missiles, yet even though some were moving toward the smaller and stronger monster, the rest were aiming for something else.

The man-monster thing made an X over his chest to block the incoming attacks, yet when he saw most of them swerve away, he widened his eyes and looked back at this companion, that was now swinging his greatsword at the incoming bullets.

[Overload]

Instantly the bullets began sucking in all the mana in the area, turning into small purple-black holes that made the area around them dry of mana within seconds.

*BOOOOM*

The bullets exploded in the air, creating a huge shockwave and sending both monsters flying backward before smashing into the barrier, creating a small hole in it.

The bigger monster had crashed through the barrier, and his body was charred beyond recognition.

Lloyd looked at the barrier, expecting it to repair itself, yet when he saw it was still broken, he could only force a smile.

He was more concerned by the smaller monster, yet even though he didn't expect much when the smoke finally cleared, it seemed like the only thing he had done was the infuriate creature.

The monster was pretty small compared to all the other adult ones he had killed.

While most of the adult grey-skinned creatures were about twice as large as Lloyd, the one before him was about the same size as him, making him physically less intimidating than the others. Yet, his magical aura and bloodlust were strong enough to make anyone of Lloyd's stature to kneel before him.

Yet, Lloyd didn't, and while it had initially intrigued the monster, now it infuriated him beyond belief.

*"KNEEL YOU BALD APE!"* The monster shouted, its voice intertwined with its rage and killing intent.

The runes on Lloyd's skin shone again as she flashed from his spot, creating a deep footprint where he last stood before the earth around the footprint began to crack.

Appearing in front of the monster in a flash of light, Lloyd had his blade in his hand once more and swung it down with all the power he could muster.

Yet the monster was faster.

Its hand was moving toward him at a speed that Lloyd could only see as a blur.

However, right before the hand could hand on his neck, Lloyd's eyes shone before his body disappeared into a flash of violet light.

Appearing behind the monster, Lloyd traced his fingers along the flat side of his katana, causing purple runes to appear on it, but it wasn't any kind of purple rune.

[Aspect of Void + Lightning Fusion]

Purple lightning crackled off his blade, creating an area of distortion around the blade, making it look like a mirage as it sliced through the air and appeared next to the monster's neck.

However, the monster seemed to have been one step ahead.

A foot landed on Lloyd's abdomen, causing him to be launched back several meters before slamming onto the barrier and bouncing off it and onto the ground.

The cracks that had been on his abdomen earlier were getting bigger, while the spider web-like cracks expanded further, reaching all the way down to his hand and feet.

Even though it pained him to do it, Lloyd closed his eyes and channeled some of the void energy inside his body to heal the cracks on his skin.

Even though he would have loved to have a regeneration ability, when he killed the monster with the ability to regenerate, Lloyd could not gain it since the chances were already pretty low in the first place.

The only reason he got the [lightning control] ability from the void walk was that it seemed like not only were the chances higher in void walks, but the fact that he killed so many of those lightning goats was also a contributing factor to why he eventually got the ability.

As the cracks on his skin exuded with purple energy, they slowly closed, allowing Lloyd to reach his physical peak once more.

'He's going to kill us.' A voice in Lloyd's head chimed in, sounding as cold and emotionless as ever.

'Shut up...' Lloyd sneered and teleported to the monster's right-hand side while swinging his blade, yet before his attack could land, he teleported again, now above the monster.

*"Amature,"* It spoke, and even though Lloyd couldn't understand its words, its scorn, and disgust were enough to tell him that it was thinking of him.

And the punch that landed on his back was enough to show him the power difference between the two of them.

Lloyd slammed into the ground again, grimacing at his injured while teleporting several meters away. If he continued fighting, there was only one way it could end.

He could feel his voidwalker side screaming at him for attempting to run away. His body was practically begging him to stay and fight, to either come out of the other side stronger or to die an honorable death.

However, despite the pleas of his body, the decision was entirely out of his own hands.

Before he could react, the monster flickered in front of him, its foot inches away from his face as it slammed into it and shot him through the barrier and several meters into the forest before he eventually hit a cliffside.

*"You will make a better test subject than that girl. Hmm. I wonder if she's dead yet."* The monster thought with a demonic grin.

Their 'god' had told them that a creature made out of the tear between space-time was coming for them and that they should capture it alive and allow him to consume it.

Of course, while at first they were terrified after hearing the description, in the end, they chose to do what they had to.

However, the man/monster was relieved to see that the creature their 'lord' was talking about was a mere first commandment. Of course, he was much stronger than the average first commandment, yet such a thing was expected from the creature their lord had praised so highly.

As the monster walked toward Lloyd, taking slow and loud steps to torture Lloyd a little longer as he lay by the side of the cliff with rubble covering most of his body.

'Let me take over.'

'No... I can-' Lloyd tried to teleport, yet horrible jolts of pain shot through his entire body, making him feel like puking despite his obvious lack of a stomach.

'You can not. Give me control for 15 minutes. Our survival is my number one priority. Everything else can come later.' Null spoke, his voice sounding almost threatening even though it was as monotone as always.

"Ugh. Fine. Go ahead." Lloyd sneered.

'Put the mask on.'

Lloyd paused momentarily and took the mask out of his dimensional storage. When he looked at the obsidian black mask, he hesitated momentarily. Yet, when looking into the distance and seeing the disgusting grin on the grotesque grey monster in the shape of a human, he resolved his nerves and slowly placed the mask on his face.

*"Don't worry... I'll be tearing the mask of with your face alongside it later on. Are you so ashamed of your loss that you are unable to show your face to me?"* The creature laughed.

"You must be mistaken..." Lloyd's voice changed, becoming low and monotone as he spoke the monster's language before him, making the monster freeze in place for a moment before frowning.

"Why would a being of my stature..." Lloyd's body got up, the cracks all over his body completely gone.

*DOOM*

Monarch's aura expanded out in every direction as a cold and calculated killing intent wafted out with it.

"Be afraid of an insect?" 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝘣𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚
