Chapter 21 - King of the Waves

The pressure split the ground apart and the moon rocks flew all over the place. Cole laughed and laughed his head off.

A blade flew past his face and cut his happiness short. He realized that Sizana was still standing there unaffected by the force. In a fit of rage, he brought the power back to the palm of his hands and fired it.

None of it hit Sizana and she continued to try and sink at least one sword into his body. Poking him from the inside would have been quicker, but the force suppressed the activation of her powers near him.

They continued their violent exchange. In every step, in every attack, and attempt at defence one could notice Sizana starting to falter. She made fewer blades and the ones she made were nearly transparent.

Not a single impact with her body was ever made but she was still coughing out blood. Cole pressed the force into the ground and it knocked the tired Sizana down, she tried to crawl back up while breathing heavily. There was a sting in her brain and made her see double, it also felt like she could smell her blood.

"It took a little longer than I had anticipated but I finally brought you down little princess." He walked over to and knelt down next to Sizana, he tried to grab her chin but no matter how hard he tried his hand could never reach her face.

"What is this? Shouldn't a person only have one ability? Well, it doesn't matter to me, our doctors will just have to dissect you when I bring you back." He stood back up and started looking around.

He stopped and grinned, "I knew I missed someone."

Choka held his weapons firmly in his hands and did not respond.

Cole also took a step back while keeping his eyes on the weapons, Choka walked towards him taking only one step along with Cole.

"What's that you got on your hands there?"

"A way to defeat you,"

"DAMN!" Cole jumped into the air and looked down to see me.

"Did you miss me?" Seeing Choka and his unusual weapons gave me an idea and I was too excited to wait until he tried it. I walked over to him and opened up my hand. "Let me hold that for you, in the meanwhile get the others out of my way."

He hesitantly handed them over to me and immediately ran over to Sizana.

I spun the tonfas around in my hands, waves came from them and they seemed to have an effect on Cole.

"Saa, are you quacking on your feet right now? Because I am about beat you so senselessly you are going to wish you were never born."

"Hm, why would that pitiful display scare me? It's not like having trojans in your hands is going to change the sorry fate that you have brought upon yourself."

"You don't know much about fate do you?"

"I know enough to tell you your future."

"This doesn't feel fair."

"That is something we can agree on."

I stopped spinning the tonfas and entered into a stance, Cole came back to the ground and motioned for me to attack. I needed to show him how powerful I am to motivate him to try harder, so with one tonfa, I fired off a similar wave blast from when I first held them.

He moved to avoid it and glared at me with disbelief. Naturally, I smiled back, I had never fought with waves before. When I get back home I should check to see if they were a unique characteristic and if they have a god for them.

"What the hell? Trojan are only as strong and vast as one's ki, just how much do you have?"

"It seems like you have finally realized where you stand in all of this."

"Don't you have a regent? I thought it was impossible for people with regents to use trojans, what's going on here?" He said as he angrily pointed his finger at me.

'How annoying.'

"Are you insane? The zoom-zoom gun is also a trojan." I said with an unchanging expression, bullshit, but as scared as he is he was going to believe anything. His body language from this point will decide whether he was to become my first penalty or not.

He split forward and launched force ahead of time. I blocked it with the tonfas and he punched me on the face. I accelerated my head with his hand and exposed his abdomen and struck it hard with a wave from the tonfas. He spit out some blood and quickly created distance between the two of us.

He looked at me with terror for a few seconds, probably wondering why I was not injured. He quickly cast his thoughts aside and launched the force in multidues towards me. Most of them were way of direction so I did not bother myself with blocking the other ones but instead fled with the rising dust.

He struck heavy in my former position and I fired a wave at him, he grinned as the wave rotated around him and ran back to me. I leapt high and he followed, for some reason the tonfas would not activate while I was midair so I focused more on dodging.

After attacking each other relentlessly we stopped with a little distance in between us. I bit my tongue because now that I had a way of landing my attacks he is just so weak. I don't know what I was expecting from mortals, after all I am divinity, I am might, I strike before light, and strike harder than the might of any steel. I am superior, all of this is beneath me.

"Seeing as how your face is in a fumbling mess I guess that you have just realized the gap between our abilities." He said loudly with a smirk on his face and his chest out, just a few seconds ago he was flustered like all hell now he dares mock me because of a change in expression.

"W..."

"Grim, hold on we are coming to help any minute now." I looked back and saw Irongrip in the hands of Neo.

"Yeah, Neo's abilities work faster on people with regents so we won't be long. Please buy us time." Sekai said without even lifting his head to face me, everybody else just looked at me with pained expressions. It looked as if hope was running thin, like they stand to give me any real help in this situation. Like they thought I was falling under this puny mortal's pressure.

"Who are you to tell me what to do?" I looked away from them, "and you. My face died earlier because I was disappointed by how weak you were. All this time you relied on being able to use those unique waves to bend the space around you. Without that ability, you are not even worth a second in front of me. Bow." I said as I raised one of the tonfas and instantly gathered an immense amount of force on top of it.

Cole saw this and stumbled over his words apologizing and offering deals that could benefit both of us. Although they sounded good, I was too embarrassed for even being a little excited about the fight to consider them. I brought the attack down and it turned the entire environment behind Cole flat.

Cole crawled out from the dust and tried to run but his legs gave up on him and he could only look at me with terror while simultaneously asking for some help from everyone else.

[Warning!]

'Shut up and knock me out.'
