Tension returned, Tortoise who should have died is now back on the move. This is caused by Tortoise's life energy being released from the seal of the hero of the past. Therefore, Tortoise will move again for ten minutes and will explode after. No matter how big an explosion might be, it might be four times more powerful than nuclear.
"If he were to explode, what would happen to the divination stone temple on his back?!" Takumi called for his opinion.
"Look, I think the temple will be fine because the divination stone itself still has a lot of mysteries." Rigel answered Takumi's concerns.
After all, I believe the magic circle engraved on the floor is almost similar to teleportation. It's a possibility, but I hope he doesn't teleport to far away places.
"More importantly, now we have to think about how to stop the creature! If left alone he would probably wipe this area off the map!" Marcel said with a slight annoyance and panic.
Right, what Marcel said. The most urgent thing is the Tortoise explosion that must be dealt with right now. Rigel and the other heroes start thinking hard how to handle it. Rigel was getting frustrated, he couldn't think of anything good at all.
Think of it! think of it! use your head and find the best solution! whatever it is doesn't matter, it either destroys it or absorbs it...
Realizing the word absorb, Rigel got a thought about something. He's not sure if this will work or not, but it's worth trying.
"You guys stay away, I have a plan worth trying..." Rigel took a step towards the directionless Tortoise.
"What do you want to do, Rigel?! don't tell me you want to sacrifice your life?!" Takumi said with a hint of anger. If it was Rigel's intention, Takumi would never allow it. Caring for the demons with his outburst, he did not want to lose those around him anymore.
Rigel stopped walking and turned to look at Takumi, "Just calm down, I never thought about sacrificing my life. At least for now..." Rigel smiled boldly and walked back towards Tortoise.
"We don't know what he's going to do, but for now we better stay away." Nadia gave a suggestion as she looked at Rigel who was heading towards Tortoise. Despite being just a premonition, Nadia felt that the wonders of the world would actually happen right before her eyes.
Rigel took a step towards Tortoise who did not even heed her. Tortoise continued walking without any concern. Rigel stared up, at this moment, a mountain passed him right above his head.
Although it is only a mere hypothesis, I believe that life energy is energy that is almost the same as energy that comes from the soul core. If true, I might be able to absorb his life energy with a third stage Void. However, I have not really controlled this power.
Void has five stages in which each stage becomes very powerful. Until now Rigel may only use up to stage three. Because he wouldn't know what would be waiting for him if he used it until stage five. For now, Rigel just needs to try it. He lifted his hand into the air and closed his eyes. Take a deep breath and activate it once again, "Void..." Rigel opened his eyes.
"Stage three: Birth of the Gods!"
A bright blue light appeared from Rigel. Blue runes began to appear from his right hand to Rigel's right cheek. He could feel, a huge amount of energy flowing in his body. How could Rigel feel that he could subjugate all the creatures in this world with his power. However, a great power always has a paycheck and Rigel cannot tell if Void is charging for his power.
"K-what is that power? I feel so creepy right now." Aland called out his complaint, staring at Rigel as he ran away.
"That's the same power he used to obliterate Tortoise's head. However, this power was stronger than before." Hazama called for an opinion. Seeing this, Hazama becomes even more curious about how powerful Rigel is and how many cards he hides.
The wind started to rumble, the ground around Rigel started to crack and the surrounding Mana gathered in Rigel's right hand.
"So this is the mysterious power that God gave you." Sylph whispered into Rigel's ear, even though she was already in the fairy forest but her voice reached Rigel's.
Rigel did not retaliate or react to Sylph's whispers, he only focused on her strength, "Void: Life Extraction." Rigel absorbs large amounts of Tortoise life energy.
Tortoise's body slowly slowed down and its energy was absorbed regularly. Rigel felt it, he could feel a huge amount of power seeping into his body. The physical exhaustion he felt slowly disappeared and every wound on his body automatically healed.
Tortoise's life energy entered through Rigel's right hand. But the amount is so much that Rigel is not sure he can absorb it entirely and besides, if he forces himself and absorbs it at once. It's likely Rigel himself will die. There was no other choice but to absorb it a little more and let Tortoise explode in midair or destroy it before it exploded.
Now I have two choices to make... First, I will destroy Tortoise's entire body using the solar Eclipse, although there is a possibility that his body will not simply vanish... Then the second option, I had to fly the large body of this creature as high as possible and make it explode in the air. If you think with logic, it is impossible to fly a mountain...
Rigel has made his decision. He'll fly the Tortoise into the air. In this world the laws of physics and logic no longer apply so it is not impossible to do so.
"Sylph, I need your help for something. Help me gather up the Mana of nature quickly to do something about this creature."
"I don't know what you're up to, but I'll help you because I've sworn to give you full support to face Tortoise." Sylph who was in the fairy forest smiled and sent out a large amount of natural Mana.
Rigel absorbed it along with the Tortoise Life Energy and collected it. Tortoise's body is getting weaker, if this continues Rigel will be hit by his body. She needs the help of one more person, hopefully she's still in control of her body.
"Ozaru! use your cane to lift this Tortoise!" Although unsure if he was still in control, Rigel still asked for his help.
Ozaru pulled the hair on his head while roaring. He seemed to be trying to keep his consciousness and take his wand. The moment he grasped it, his staff turned into a size that fit his grasp.
At least hold on until Tortoise is done, Ozaru!
Ozaru who was already grasping his staff ran towards Tortoise, he extended his wand to the bottom of Tortoise's shell and extended his staff.
Tortoise's body slowly lifted, and at the same time, Rigel began to move, "Let's start now!"
The runes on Rigel's body shone brightly and he bowed his upper body to shake. His right eye shone like an assassin, Rigel clenched his teeth with all his might and clenched his right fist. Rigel stretched out both of his fists towards the Tortoise shell that felt above his head, "Harrrgggghhhhh!!" Rigel roars.
"Oii Oii's... What the fuck? is he intending to fly that huge creature?!" Aland stared in disbelief.
"... D-he's probably crazy..." Even Marcel doesn't believe it.
As the Heroes stared at Rigel and could not believe that it could be done, Nadia looked at him in awe. His eyes gleamed with tears of joy, "That's not impossible... Right now, we are going to witness the wonders of the world!"
Rigel put a lot of his energy into it. He realizes that Ozaru can no longer control himself, so Rigel must do it alone, "Territory Void: World Of Void..." Rigel activated his current strongest Territory, The world was empty.
This territory is special, Rigel can manage how wide the territory he wants. Rigel only activates his Territory to the size of Tortoise's body so that the other heroes and Ozaru who have gone mad and gone are not exposed to the Impact.
A flash of light appeared and covered Rigel with Tortoise. The world around Rigel turned into an eternal vacuum, a vacuum. There was only black and white, a world without sound, a world without color, and everything here had been purified by voidness.
"Since you're a Spirit monster, I can't erase your existence here and I can't let you explode here either because the impact will be impregnable in the outside world."
Right, the reason Rigel did not let another hero or someone be inside his Territory was because he could wipe out the existence of someone yet he was unable to erase the existence of the Spirit. In this Territory, all the laws of the existing world do not apply, even the weight of an object or living thing though.
Rigel raised Tortoise with his left hand while his right hand clenched a fist"This is the end of you, Goodbye." Rigel exerted all his energy and hit Tortoise very hard and restored the world to its original state.
Territory Void disappeared, everyone could see Rigel and witness the super amazing scenery. Simultaneously with the loss of the Territory, a super-large fist the size of Tortoise's body shot up from the ground and carried the Tortoise Body flying through high space.
*BOOM!
The sky split because of it and at its maximum height the Tortoise exploded right after passing through the Earthland Atmosphere. Tortoise's life energy exploded along with his body as well as spirit. The energy slowly descended back to Earthland in the form of tiny pieces of light like snow. Rigel stared at the small sparkling sky as falling fragments of life energy rained down on him.
The entire crowd who watched the battle through the Crystal and Projector screen cried out in tears. Unlike the death of Hydra, they were currently witnessing for themselves how this battle went.
Rigel raised his right fist to the sky and laughed, "Hahah... I won.. khak!" Rigel spewed blood from his mouth, his legs no longer held back his body and Rigel slowly fell down in the rain of light.
Hazama runs and catches Rigel hitting the ground, "Thank you for your hard work, good work, you did really well..." Hazama gives compliments, her eyes sparkling happy tears, just like any other hero.
Rigel wasn't smiling or happy, "Not yet... Still, there's one more problem..." Rigel said weakly, probably because of the effect of using the Void and the burden he received. "Ozaru's... Make it, he.. regain consciousness..." Rigel immediately lay limp and fainted from the accumulated fatigue.
"Riley!" Takumi ran over to Rigel with great worry.
"Just calm down, he just fainted from exhaustion.. More importantly, now we have to take care of that one." Hazama looked at Ozaru who started to stand up and let out an enormous killing intent.
"It's not over yet." Takumi furrowed his brows.
Ozaru turned to look at them like a beast. Ozaru was already not in control of himself, he had actually turned into a giant Monkey without any sense.
"But how do we wake him up?" Petra asked.
Hazama remembers what Ozaru said to Rigel before he changed, If I get out of control, kill me.
Killing it by resuscitating it two very different things. Rigel asks Hazama to return Ozaru, not kill him. But he doesn't know how to wake her up.
"Umm, I have one thought on this." Hazama turned to the direction of the voice, and found Yuri who raised her hand.
"Whatis that? say it!" Hazama said hurriedly, while taking Rigel away with Takumi.
"I'm not sure if this works or not... You must know a story from China about holy apes? Even in Japan there are also stories about children looking for dragon balls right?" Yuri tries to connect Ozaru's case with the movies and stories that exist on earth.
"I also know the story, why?" Nadia asked.
"In that story, once the boy turned into a giant ape like this right? to return it to its Humanoid form..." As Yuri tried to explain, "We should cut off the tail, right?!" Hazama interrupts and goes straight to the heart of what Yuri is trying to convey.
The heroes began to find a ray of hope. Although it's uncertain, that doesn't mean it's a bad thing for them to try.
"yes too! we might try that!" Takumi was getting excited.
"Well, now, let's take care of the Monkey and celebrate our victory feast!" Marcel excited.
Marcel, Takumi, Argo, and Takatsumi were excited, they were staring at Ozaru who was in front of them. Ozaru let out a gasping breath and looked impatient to immediately kill someone.
"All right, then... Come on!" Marcel leads the attack and is followed by another hero.
On the other hand, in a fairy forest. Fairy Queen Sylph was preparing her magic and melting the Ice Crystal that imprisoned a girl inside. In one chant, the Ice Crystal that froze the girl disappeared and became a small fragment. The girl who had been trapped had been laid on a mattress under a tree. Sylph stroked her hair affectionately and looked sad.
The girl was still breathing, but she did not open her eyes. It's exactly like a sleeping princess.
"so yeah... It seems that your soul is no longer in your body so you will not wake up. At least, I'll be by your side while you're asleep for good my daughter, Priscilla." Sylph smiled and her teardrops fell onto the girl's face, Priscilla Flamesword.
