Chapter 9 - And all it takes is the will of a single man,

[Warning]

[Such an act will endanger your life]

[Will you still proceed?]

'Heh, I need to get a bit of payback at least, that Leirus is really infuriating.'

[Caution is advised]

[Stay safe]

'Of course, thanks system.'

'First thing I should do, is eliminate the remaining leviathans, I'm getting sick of these overgrown fishes.'

I condense a massive wind blade and throw it to a charging overgrow sea creature. Slicing it in half, its internal organs spilled out and joined the corpse sea.

Continuing to adopt such an attack was extremely efficient, it could easily get the job done.

Alto took a deep breath, feeling the tension melt away as a long, contented sigh escaped, carrying with it the weight of the moment.

Corpses of leviathans were littered across the ocean surface, their blood dyed the ocean a terrifying red, the guts that were strewn along, attached to the bodies or not, were a chilling sight to be observed.

And the cause of all of this killing? Alto, a mere child releasing heavy breaths up along the reaches of the sky, dyed with blood of his own and others, his gray pupils was affected, turning a bit red along its edges.

This is the unsaid effect of killing too many living beings, with time, the red hue will disappear, but it will last for a long while.

Back to Alto,

I made a grabbing motion with my palm facing upwards, like I was holding something spherical.

'Hehehehe' A devilish giggle exited my mouth, the clouds shook a bit as it sensed my intentions.

Large amounts of lightning swarmed towards me, gathering into one spherical point, the size of a golf ball.

Minutes pass by as I kept compressing the lightning into this incredibly small ball, forcefully containing its power.

The Ruler of the Seas popped up on my map, heading towards me once more.

'Hehehe, seems like you finally noticed, you overgrown pest.' Condescending thoughts emerged as I felt a wave of frustration wash over me when I saw that red dot.

'It will take roughly an hour to reach me at this rate, gotta keep going.'

My focus returned on maintaining the the lightning sphere

Nearly an hour later

The lightning sphere was mesmerizing, a pulsating orb of crackling blue and white energy. Tendrils of electricity arced and danced around it, illuminating my childishly cute face that had a massive scowl.

'Getting up close and personal huh? Seems like you really wanna beat me up.' I scoffed at the thought.

I point the super compressed golf ball sized sphere of lightning towards the approaching leviathan.

'I'm not as scared as before huh? Am I losing my sense of fear? I wonder if that is a good thing.'

"Cataclysmic Thunderburst"

So with a flicking motion, the lightning sphere accelerated to speeds totaling to 0.1 percent of light speed. Traveling hundreds of kilometers in a mere second and arrived in front of the leviathan in an instant.

I looked up at the night sky, smiling.

As the lightning sphere struck the unsuspecting Ruler of the Seas, the explosion that followed was a symphony of light and sound. Blinding white light illuminated the night, turning darkness into day for a fleeting moment. The sound was a deafening roar, a colossal clap of thunder that shook the very earth and made the sea tremble.

The explosion unleashed a storm of electrical fury, bolts of lightning lancing out in all directions. Evaporating the water in a ten kilometer radius from the epicenter, leaving a certain leviathan's outer skin charred. Though injured, it wasn't out of the fight yet, enraged it charged towards me.

*ROAR*

An earth shattering roar followed, making the air bend around it, creating

In the next following seconds, the serpentine leviathan rushed forward, a tsunami that reached the skylines followed along with it. Covering my view with the sea water.

I contest it for control, slowing the tsunami down. Conjuring a wind blade that was as thick as a serpentine leviathan, I launched it towards the Leirus.

Similarly, the Leirus attacked me as well with a compressed jet of water, dissipating my attack easily and continuing towards me.

Merely dodging it by a hair's breadth, my back was filled with cold sweat.

Needless to say, I relied on my storm body to release the attacks, only to be surprised as well.

*Bzzt* *Bzzt* *Bzzt*

The Leirus' back scales started to shine a bright blue, starting from the tail towards the head. It's charred skin peeling off and blood pouring out of it.

'God no, please don't tell me its a-'

A bright blue plasma like beam exited its mouth, expanding and expanding as much as possible, hitting my storm and evaporated a portion of the it. My attacks lessened in numbers as a portion of the clouds that made attacks were annihilated.

'Breath attack...'

I saw at aim its mouth at me and I frantically flew around, hoping to confuse it and not get hit. Because if such an attack were to make contact with me, well, let's hope that at least an atom would remain.

Bright blue sparks traveled up from its tail to its head. Discarding the thought of hitting me, it proceeded to just continue dissipating the storm clouds.

'At least it can't use it freely due to the injuries I caused, what a good decision I made.'

'But if only that were my own problem.'

Looking at the nearing tsunami, I knew that I had to do something that would not just ensure my survival, but also the utter annihilation of my enemy.

In other words, an attack that could destroy an entire continent or evaporate the entire sea. Cause this leviathan is nothing like the ones I killed.

'I guess you aren't the Ruler of the Seas for no reason, you're rep-'

*Whoosh*

In the middle of my monologuing, the leviathan successfully hit me with a jet of water, obliterating my mana barrier out of existence and taking my left arm along with it.

Alas, my arrogance that slowly built up when I killed all those leviathans was the cause of this, making me regard the Leirus as just another leviathan to be killed.

My eyes widened and reddened, the pain itself wasn't comparable to when I formed the mana core, but still, losing a limb would hurt regardless.

I screamed and started to fly faster and faster, confusing not only the leviathan but also me. That didn't matter though, my arm was removed, THAT HURT.

Anger, hatred, rage, fury, and WRATH, clouded a portion of my mind. Consciously ignoring the panels that were popping up in front of me.

Making mana rush along in the shape of an arm, I successfully remade my arm, though, it was just a physical illusion. The moment I stop supplying mana, it disappears, prompting me to manually shape the mana into my arm again.

Thankfully, I didn't bleed much, allowing me to continue fighting without a problem.

'You god forsaken fuck, let's see how you handle another one.'
