Aditya, upon seeing Sanjay about to use a fire-element weapon against him, became alert. Although he wasn't strong enough to match Sanjay's power, he was confident he could at least escape his clutches. But now that he saw Sanjay was ready to fire the weapon at him, he became cautious and started thinking about how to counter this fire-element weapon. While he was contemplating, he heard Sanjay's voice.
"Kid, let me show you what a real warrior is. You may be strong, but you'll never have weapons like these," Sanjay said.
Sanjay then took aim at Aditya, about to fire directly at him when Aditya suddenly spoke, "Wait! What's the rush? Now that you know I'm going to die at your hands, why don't you answer some of my questions first?"
Hearing this, Sanjay gave him a sharp look and said, "Are you trying to fool me, kid? I know what you're up to. You're stalling for time, hoping someone will come to save you. But I'm no fool. I've dealt with many like you, trying such tactics to save themselves."
Without further delay, Sanjay fired the weapon at Aditya. Sanjay was elated, convinced that Aditya couldn't possibly survive his attack. Aditya, too, thought the same but quickly realized he couldn't let himself die without even trying to enjoy his life. So he focused his mind and came up with a simple plan—dodge the attack. He did exactly that and managed to sidestep the attack just in time.
However, Aditya had no idea that his quick decision would put hundreds of lives in danger. The attack from Sanjay's fire-element weapon, which Aditya successfully dodged, struck a building nearby. The building was severely damaged by the blast. Worse, many people living in its rooms were killed instantly.
Seeing this, Aditya felt disheartened. He hadn't expected one wrong decision to lead to so much destruction. While he stood there, overwhelmed with sorrow, he was also consumed by anger toward Sanjay. He shouted, "You scoundrel! If you've got so much courage, come and fight me somewhere else! Show me your strength there, and then I'll acknowledge it!"
Sanjay, hearing this, smirked and replied, "Oh, kid, you haven't seen the extent of my villainy yet. Every time you dodge my attacks, more innocent people will die because of you. Poor souls—they're doomed anyway. Whether they die like this or otherwise, their fate is sealed."
Sanjay's words made Aditya's blood boil with rage. Without thinking twice, he charged directly at Sanjay. But Aditya didn't know that this was precisely what Sanjay had been waiting for. Without hesitation, Sanjay fired his fire-element weapon at him again.
This time, Aditya attempted to dodge just like before, but the attack came dangerously close to him. Just as it was about to hit him, he leaped upward. Fortunately, there wasn't a building behind him this time; instead, there was a large park. Although several trees in the park were destroyed by the attack, there was no loss of life, which was a huge relief for Aditya.
Now, Aditya began pondering how to deal with Sanjay's relentless attacks. But before he could think further, Sanjay launched another assault on him.
As Aditya was lost in thought, he suddenly began to receive memories of his father. These were memories his father had gained while mastering the water element. Aditya found himself in an entirely different dimension, watching his father train in the waters of the Mariana Trench, trying to understand the essence of the water element.
His father trained relentlessly, realizing that water was a dual force—capable of both giving life and taking it. Water grows crops but can also destroy them. It quenches thirst as a river but can kill millions as a storm. The sea serves as a transportation route for ships, but it can also swallow them whole. These profound truths slowly dawned on Ranveer Singh Chauhan, and Aditya, experiencing these memories, felt the same understanding.
While immersed in this, a voice from the system echoed in Aditya's mind:
"Host's life is in danger. To protect the host, the system will grant knowledge of the water element, but in exchange, it will deduct all the host's accumulated points."
Aditya, however, couldn't hear the system's message as he was in a state of enlightenment, witnessing his father's deep understanding of the water element. Inspired, Aditya began to try and harness the power of water in the dimension created by the system. This training ground had a unique time dilation—one second on Earth equaled 10,000 seconds in this dimension.
Meanwhile, in the real world, Sanjay Malik was preparing to attack Aditya once more. Just as he was about to pull the trigger, he sensed a strange disturbance in the environment. He noticed an unusual increase in moisture around him. Realizing this was likely a secret technique to counter his fire attacks, Sanjay grew alert but didn't panic. He took aim at Aditya again.
However, Sanjay then observed a stream of water forming rapidly around Aditya. This wasn't just any ordinary stream—it swirled around him at incredible speed, with one of the streams so sharp and fast that it could cut through diamond.
As this was happening, Aditya heard another voice in his mind:
"Congratulations, Host. You have unlocked 1% of the power of the water element. The system awards you 1,000 points. Use this power to defeat your opponent. If you succeed, you will receive an additional 500 points."
This time, Aditya could hear the message. Determined to end the battle quickly, he decided to use his newfound abilities.
On the other hand, Sanjay had already aimed at Aditya once more and, without hesitation, launched his attack. This time, his attack was not only faster but significantly more lethal. To put it into perspective, while his previous attacks used only 10% of his weapon's power, this one was unleashed at 100% capacity—a final, all-out attempt to eliminate Aditya in one blow.
Aditya was now completely surrounded by water, and as Sanjay's lethal attack approached, a powerful stream of water rose from around Aditya. This stream morphed into a massive water bubble and, just as the attack neared, it engulfed the energy blast and neutralized it instantly. Aditya, still in a state of absorption and reflection, was internalizing the wisdom inherited from his father.
As he fully grasped the power of water, he opened his eyes, now brimming with newfound confidence. He fixed his gaze on Sanjay, a sly smile spreading across his face. "You're quite proud of your elemental gun, aren't you?" he said. "Well, let's see how powerful it really is."
Without hesitation, Aditya sent a rapidly spinning wave of water straight at Sanjay's gun. The force of the water was so immense that it shredded the elemental gun into pieces upon contact. Sanjay stood frozen in disbelief, staring at the remains of his weapon and then at Aditya.
Aditya remained calm, his demeanor radiating controlled power. Looking directly at Sanjay, he said, "You were so eager to kill me, weren't you? Let's see how you fare without your weapon." Sanjay, still reeling from the loss of his gun and most of his men, began to regret his choices. But regret had no place here—Aditya wasn't going to show mercy.
Aditya sent another wave of water toward Sanjay, who stood paralyzed in fear. The water began to circle him like a predator playing with its prey. The currents moved so sharply that they pierced Sanjay's body in multiple places, causing him excruciating pain. Desperate, Sanjay tried to think of a way to escape the torment, but Aditya wasn't done yet.
"This is getting boring," Aditya remarked coldly. "Let me give you a death so agonizing that even your bones will vanish." With that, he formed a massive water bubble, dense and turbulent, and sent it hurtling toward Sanjay. The bubble reached him and burst with immense force, creating a vortex of water that spun around Sanjay at terrifying speed.
Aditya was controlling the water with precision, and as the spinning intensified, the vortex completely engulfed Sanjay. The water currents wrapped tightly around him, compressing his body while spinning at high velocity. It was clear that Aditya had no intention of stopping until Sanjay was utterly destroyed, leaving behind nothing but a grim reminder of the power he now wielded.
"You have defeated a Peak Noble-level Warrior and earned 500 points as promised," the system announced. Hearing this, Aditya couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. He quickly checked his updated status:
- **Name:** Aditya Singh Chauhan
- **Cultivation Level:** Planet-level Warrior
- **Expected Lifespan:** 50,000 years
- **Total Points:** 1500
Aditya, exhausted but pleased, began preparing to leave the battlefield. As he glanced around, his eyes fell on the remains of Sanjay. All that was left of the once-powerful warrior were the crushed fragments of his bones. Sanjay's body, skin, and organs had been utterly destroyed in the water vortex created by Aditya. The sheer intensity of the attack had ground everything to dust, except for some pulverized bone fragments that remained after the water's wrath had subsided.
Aditya, drained from the intense battle, decided to retreat to rest and recover. With a swift motion, he vanished from the scene, leaving the chaotic battlefield behind.
Not long after his departure, shadowy figures emerged from the darkness, approaching the site where the battle had taken place. They began surveying the destruction and studying the remains, whispering among themselves. Their intentions were unclear, but their presence suggested that Sanjay's defeat and the aftermath of Aditya's actions had not gone unnoticed.
