When a person reaches above S rank, his mana evolves into the world essence. The world essence is the higher form of energy and is much more powerful than the mana.
But by using concepts, people can increase the power of world essence even more.
For example, if a person is proficient with space element he can use his understanding of space element to turn world essence into conceptual energy of space.
Conceptual energise are the evolved version of world essence and not every person can turn world essence into conceptual energy.
Being at the disaster level, it is obvious that both Valtair and Malphasar had their own conceptual energies.
Valtair had a vague understanding of many different kinds of conceptual energies. But the main concept that he used in his world essence is the concept of destruction, making it the conceptual energy of destruction.
Meanwhile, Malphasar used the concept of despair, making his world essence the conceptual energy of despair.
All conceptual energies have their own strengths and weaknesses. The conceptual energy of despair is very powerful if used along with a skill that can affect the target’s mind or soul. But it is not good when you used it for a physical attack.
So when Malphasar clashed against Valtair, the dark energy covering his body was immediately destroyed by the conceptual energy of destruction.
Crack -!
The sound of bone cracking rang out, the flames of destruction engulfed Malphasar’s body and he was shot towards the ground like a fiery meteorite.
His body covered the distance to the ground in an instant and
Boooooooooommmmmmm-!!!!!
With a deafening roar, Malphasar’s body struck the ground, unleashing an unimaginable explosion that reverberated for thousands of kilometres. A shockwave of unfathomable power swept outward, obliterating everything in its path.
The force of the collision tore open the ground, creating a crater of immense proportions that spanned more than one hundred kilometres in diameter, and its depth seemed to reach into the very core of the dimension.
But Valtair wasn’t done yet.
He looked at the fiery Chimera that was floating in the sky.
ROAR -!
The chimera roared and opened its mouth, balls of molten lava started to form in its mouth and it shot them inside the giant crater.
Boom-! Boom-! – –
The balls of molten lava exploded inside the crater, turning the crater into a pond which was filled with lava.
Valtair looked at the pond of lava with a grin on his face.
“He is not dead, right?”
Rumble -!
Just as he spoke, the entire dimension started to shake. The grin on Valtair’s face become even wider and he reinforced the dimension using his silver flames.
Suddenly the lava inside the crater surged outward and a giant black monster that was five hundred meters tall came out of it.
The Monster was looking like a black slime and there were hundreds of mouths on its body.
Malphasar was standing at the top of the monster, his right hand was limp, his body was filled with burn marks and blood was coming out from his beak. His red eyes were now completely black and he was glaring at Valtair with hatred.
“Wow! This monster is even more bad looking than you.” Valtair said in a surprised voice when he saw the strange-looking monster. “But I don’t think it will be able to help you escape from here.”
He said and was ready to burn the monster when hundreds of mouths on its body opened.
“Aerrrrriiii” The hundreds of mouths on its body released a strange sound. When Valtair heard that sound, his soul shook and his mind went into a frenzy.
The memories he never wanted to recall suddenly appeared in his mind and he lost focus for a moment.
Malphasar did not miss this chance, just as Valtair lost focus, he flapped his crow-like wings and instantly appeared before Valtair.
“It is my turn bastard.” Malphasar roared and punched the round face of Valtair with his full strength.
Boom-!
Shockwaves speared in all directions, Valtair’s face was caved in and he was shot hundred of kilometres backwards.
Because of the impact, Valtair’s mind recovered, but before he could stabilize himself, the slime-like monster opened its mouths again.
“Aerriii” Even though Valtair tried to resist the spiritual attack of the monster, he still lost focus for a brief moment. Malphasar did not miss the chance again, he appeared before Valtair with a small black energy black in his hand and pressed it on his face.
Boom-!!
The energy ball exploded upon coming in contact with Valtair’s face. He was shot downwards like a broken kite and smashed to the ground creating a crater even larger than Malphasar.
Malphasar thought that Valtair would be dazed because of his energy ball attack and decided to continue his attack. His sharp claws gleamed with dark energy and he appeared above Valtair who was trying to stand up.
Woosh -!
Malphasar slashed with his sharp claw wanting to rip apart Valtair’s body, but unknown to him, Valtair can’t feel pain so he wasn’t dazed at all.
Just as the claw was about to struck him, he grabbed it with his hand, the purple flames in his eyes burned even more brightly and he twisted the claw of Malphasar breaking it as well just like his right hand.
“Arghh” Malphasar cried out in pain and tried to escape from Valtair’s grip.
The black slime monster saw Malphasar’s situation and was about to use another spiritual attack when suddenly the temperature around it increased.
ROAR -!
Before it could understand what was happening, the giant fiery chimaera whose body was glowing appeared above its head.
BOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM-!!!
The fiery chimaera exploded above the monster’s head, a wave of fire engulfed hundreds of kilometres of the area, and the slime monster disappeared from the world even before it could make a sound.
“How dare you make me remember those dark memories.” Valtair roared as the cracks on his body expanded even more.
“Should I help him?” Upon seeing Malphasar’s situation, muttered a dark figure who had been watching the battle from the beginning, hiding inside the Void.
