Chapter 47 - 47 - Effort

"Kuhaha. Kuhahahaha. You think this is all I got? Combine! 'pride' and 'conquest'! [Infinite combustion vacuum]!" (Surtor)

Using gravity to pull everyone towards him, we couldn't defend as it was part of his authority, lastly he used 'space' and the atoms inside to keep causing an explosion on the size of atomic bombs, using 'space' again he would redirect the energy from the explosion into the air and circle back to our location like a typhoon. I could survive with my immortality or even use my authority and become immune but I wasn't sure about Bavner and Houzo. At that time, I didn't know how much hp they had so I couldn't risk it. I couldn't stop the gravity pulling us in, but I could stop the explosions.

"[Death]!" The energy dispersed immediately, this hasn't happen in a long time, but I could feel it. In my fist. Shaking with excitement, I used the the gravity to my advantage, after resisting and keeping a certain distance I let go. No in fact I launched myself towards Surtor. "HeHehe... [Diamond speed enhancement - tier 5]! ,10 layers!".

With this speed, the momentum should be enough to even bypass the king's telekinesis with relative ease, so what's to say it can't break through space? And one more,

" Go! 'Wrath'! Speed up my time by a thousand fold! And slow down my surroundings with another thousand!".

Grinning, I could see Surtor's face distort in fear. That's reasonable. Afterall, my agility far surpasses 100 digits and I even slowed down his perception of me by a thousand times. Since his authority cancelled my 'wrath' it wasn't 1 000 000 times, but I still moved 1 000 000 times faster as only Surtor's body was immune and the air wasn't.

This is it! I could feel it! My hand going so fast it broke logic and space! Stopping my legs right before surtor, I swung my whole arm as hard as I could, to the point my shoulder was severed. My body was blown back, but I was still standing. That severing wasn't his spatial manipulation, because the energy was still in my arm and wasn't stopping anytime soon, which was in the air pushing past his spatial barriers. "[Death]!". Removing the last of his barriers, the arm landed on his body. He was still using his authority's gravity manipulation to pull my arm away, I won't let him! "[Mana link - tier 5]!". This skill was a relatively weak spying skill, when the user links their mana to an object, they can control the object to move from a distance, it was impractical as people could set up easy barriers to make it unusable. But this way, I could control my arm from a distance. So I kept pushing further. I have to overcome his gravity manipulation! He is barely hanging through, how do I finish it? Think! Emily, Think!

That's it! Bavner onii-chan and Houzo are still here!

(Note that all of this occured in a second and that those 2 were lazing around watching Emily launch her fist while enjoying herself.)

As if reading my mind, no, he did read my mind. Bavner proceeded to channel the highest amount of telekinetic energy through his arm and legs. He stopped putting up his subconcious telekinetic barriers and could be squashed easily, but Surtor was distracted with my fist.

Zooming in with his speed, Bavner kept launching punches at Surtor's side and never stopped. Houzo teleported himself near Surtor with his arm inside Surtor's body. Surtor's powers skewered his arm with the pressure inside and outside of his body but Houzo didn't mind. Ah, I forgot. He was a dragon demi-human.He had amazing defence and regeneration.

"Dragon demi-god actually, Emily-chan."

(Bavner) The king rudely interrupts my thoughts. Another idea popped up, "[Death]!", removing the surrounding atoms and air in existence, a vacuum was created to suck my fist towards Surtor. This was just like his gravitational manipulation! Spamming [Death] more than ever, his gravity manipulation let off at a fast pace and finally.His body disintegrated along with Houzo's and Bavner's arm...

We overcomed his authority, so my fist hit both of theirs through his body. A huge crater formed and blew away the entrance of the dungeon. "hu~hu~hu~". The three of us were breathing heavily. The high leveled adventurers didn't help him in the end. The explosions from his [Infinite combustion vacuum] blew them far away with life threatening injuries, but nothing 'wrath' cant' fix. Now how do we split the loot?

"You can have it, Emily-chan." (Bavner)

The king answered while pretending he didn't read my mind again.

"I'm okay with it too, hu~hu~hu~" (Houzo)

Did he read my expression or did he deduce what I was thinking from the king's words?

"By the way, I can read expressions." (Houzo)

Ah right, his 'envy' allows him to be the best reconnaissance agent, so he probably trained to read emotions and conversations.

"Don't mind if I do~"

All the normal stuff like his clothes and equipment actually blew up in the explosion. All that's left was the indestructable 'pride' and authority of 'conquest'. With this I'm slowly collecting more and more different abilities, as if I was collecting st⚪nds. I have roughly half the 'sin' s and half the 'authorities' . The authority of conquest held authority over the soul, Surtor did use it to control others, but he could have controlled Bavner and Houzo. Though they only got into his range at the last moment when he was distracted by me.

Time to get the abilities~
