Enishi's reaction was swift and calculated. With a casual movement of his hand, he intercepted Kaito's formidable strike, blocking the impending collision with an almost casual ease. The cryptic crimson eyes on his left side retained an air of fascination, a mysterious acknowledgment of the unfolding events.
As Kaito swiftly withdrew, a cascade of thoughts flooded his mind. Doubt lingered, the uncertainty of whether he truly comprehended the extent of his newfound powers. A silent dialogue echoed within his consciousness: "Do I really have to risk this?" Yet, a surge of determination, an internal proclamation, urged him forward with an unyielding resolve.
"WHATEVER, JUST GO ALL OUT AND THINK OF THE CONSEQUENCES LATER!!!" This internal battle cry resonated within the recesses of Kaito's mind, an assertion that propelled him forward into the imminent clash. The streets of Shibuya became the battleground, a stage where mortal and guardian converged in a dance of conflicting energies.
At an astounding speed—1.0793E+19 km/h, an astronomical ten billion times the Speed of Light—Kaito propelled himself towards Enishi, a force of nature propelled by the harmonious alliance with Altharion. The clean blow he aimed at Enishi's face held the weight of newfound power, an assertion of the capabilities unlocked by the Enes Convergence.
Enishi, however, met this accelerated assault with a serene smile. A subtle acknowledgment of Kaito's potential, coupled with a statement that echoed through the battle-laden air: "Fine, I'll take you seriously." This acknowledgment signaled a shift in the dynamics of the confrontation, a recognition that Kaito's abilities warranted a more profound engagement.
Meanwhile, atop a towering building, Haruka and Ayame observed the unfolding spectacle. Haruka's keen insight dissected the situation, recognizing the potential harbored within Kaito's newfound powers. "With that, we could become as powerful as him, or beyond," he mused. Ayame, the silent observer, contributed her own revelation—a spiritual being, a guardian of an Enes, intricately tied to Kaito's extraordinary abilities.
As the clash continued to unfold, Haruka contemplated the nature of Enishi's strength. "Enishi has developed beyond imagination," he stated with conviction. The recent skirmish, punctuated by the clean blow that connected with Enishi's face, was attributed to the momentary lapse in his guard. The realization lingered—an opponent whose prowess transcended imagination, a formidable force whose true potential remained veiled in the shadows.
In the heart of the exhilarating clash between Kaito and Enishi, the two formidable forces moved with an uncanny synchronicity, seemingly locked in a dance of cosmic proportions. Enishi's ability to keep pace with Kaito showcased a level of mastery that mirrored the extraordinary power unleashed through the Enes Convergence.
As Enishi skillfully evaded Kaito's attacks, a cryptic revelation echoed through the tumultuous air. "Feel free to use high-tier Enes abilities... The barrier will hold the damage only inside of Shibuya." Enishi's words hung in the air, a profound invitation to unleash the full might of high-tier Enes abilities. Kaito's eyes widened, reflecting a fusion of Altharion's consciousness, Kaito's own sentiments, and the realization that the battle could escalate to unprecedented heights.
A radiant smile graced Kaito's face, a manifestation of Altharion's influence blended with Kaito's excitement at the prospect of wielding power on a cosmic scale. Enishi, attuned to Kaito's charged aura, discerned the impending surge of extraordinary abilities. In his thoughts, Enishi articulated the words that encapsulated the imminent revelation: "ESSENCE PARAGON."
The Essence Paragon tier unfolded as a scale, a hierarchy of power that transcended mortal comprehension. Each tier represented an ascension into cosmic dominion, a progression from manipulating solar systems to shaping the very fabric of reality itself. Kaito, at the precipice of this extraordinary revelation, stood poised to explore the untapped realms of Essence Paragon.
1. Solar Unleasher: Capable of attacks spanning multiple solar systems, manipulating stars, and harnessing the power of entire galaxies.
2. Cosmic Artisan: Commands the forces of dark matter and cosmic energy, creating celestial phenomena on a cosmic scale.
3. Nebula Forger: Shapes nebulae, constructs planetary systems, and can manipulate the fabric of space and time within a galactic cluster.
4. Stellar Sovereign: Controls the birth and death of stars, manipulates spacetime across galaxies, and can unleash cataclysmic events on a galactic supercluster level.
5. Interstellar Arbiter: Governs over intergalactic realms, manipulating the fundamental forces of the universe and transcending the limitations of space.
6. Galactic Alchemist: Masters the alchemy of cosmic energies, able to reshape the very laws of physics within a cosmic web that spans multiple galaxies.
7. Celestial Weaver: Weaves the threads of existence on a scale beyond comprehension, manipulating cosmic strings and determining the fate of entire galactic superclusters.
8. Beyond Multiversal Sage: Capable of breaching the boundaries of multiverses, influencing realities across countless dimensions, and wielding power that transcends the limitations of a conventional multiverse.
9 & 10. Uncharted Realms: The pinnacle of power, veiled in mystery. No records exist of anyone reaching these tiers, shrouded in the unknown, beyond even the comprehension of those who have achieved the eighth tier. Legends speak of the potential to shape the fabric of reality itself, but whether this is achievable remains uncertain.
Amidst this revelation, Haruka, perched on a vantage point, was entranced by the unfolding events. "HE'S GOING TO USE ESSENCE PARAGON TIER ENES!" he exclaimed with a sense of excitement. Ayame, though reserved, couldn't conceal a flicker of interest in the unprecedented display of power.
"The question is... What tier can he go up to.. and what tier will he use against Enishi?" pondered Haruka, articulating the central mystery that now gripped the observers. The unfolding battle had transcended the realm of conventional conflicts, delving into the cosmic tapestry of Essence Paragon, where the fate of Shibuya hung in the balance.
As Enishi's enigmatic smile widened, the atmosphere crackled with an intensity that mirrored the cosmic clash unfolding in the heart of Shibuya. Kaito, having weathered the onslaught of Enishi's formidable attack, bore visible signs of the confrontation. Torn shreds of clothing dangled from his battered form, a testament to the ferocity of the encounter. His face and body, marked by slashes, displayed the toll exacted by Enishi's relentless assault.
Yet, amidst the remnants of the battle, Kaito's resplendent wings remained untouched, a testament to the enduring strength forged through the harmonious convergence with Altharion. The wings, pristine and majestic, symbolized the indomitable spirit that propelled Kaito forward in the face of overwhelming odds.
Enishi, unfazed by the ongoing clash, mumbled cryptic incantations under his breath. The ethereal energies coalesced around him, manifesting in a colossal slash that surged toward Kaito with unrestrained force. The sheer power of the attack left a visible mark on Kaito, who, despite sustaining medium injuries, remained resolute in the face of adversity.
Enishi's delight in the unfolding skirmish was palpable, a testament to his appreciation for the raw, unbridled power that defined Essence Paragon-tier conflicts.
In response to Enishi's overwhelming assault, Kaito, undeterred and fueled by the transformative energies coursing through his being, began the intricate process of invoking an Essence Paragon-tier Enes ability.
