Tharo charged at me with their uninjured arm leaned back ready to deliver a full-force punch to me. Well, that was the benefit of a shapeshifter body, I formed a gigantic hole in my body that he went through right away. With a calm fury clear as day on his face, he flew far into the sky, reaching beyond the atmosphere, probably getting a running start to try and get a powerful blow in.
I merely shook my head and followed after him and while I wasn't as fast I was at a good distance to stretch my arms towards him. I grabbed hold of his ankle and using both my physical power and mystical powers to give myself an extra boost I dragged him back to the planet's sky.
My eyes began to glow, ready to fire a blast of Aku's and my own favorite go-to weapon, laser eyes. I blasted a radiant beam of mystical power at his back, and he screamed in pain as he tried to rip my hand off, he would've succeded if I didn't time my attack just right.
Even I am not arrogant enough not to admit that this being strength was not to be questioned, they were indeed stronger, stronger than Jenoma even now. However, my physical power combined with my innate knowledge of the mystic arts allowed me a leg up on them, and even if I was as tricky as Aku who I could feel my connection to even now, I still had some tricks of my own.
I then stretched out my other arm and grabbed hold of their other leg, dragging them to me faster than before all the while keeping up my laser attack. Then I felt my grip on them separate and then I saw that they had left my sight/attack and were now charging towards me.
While I was able to stop my laser attack in time I didn't have the chance to form a hole for them to safely pass through. he tackled my chest and began pushing me down into the earth, which surprised me as I thought they would try to tear me apart.
Using this chance, I decided to form at least a dozen tentacles and turned their ends into spikes, sharp pointy spikes like the scythe I used to slice into them earlier. I then stabbed them into the back of his neck and pierced his skin easily, pushing them further in and began injecting them with my essence, I was curious to see what kind of creature would come from this begins physiology and my own brand of power.
He screamed in pain as we plummeted to the earth, a bit outside of my city's wall but close enough for them to see our battle. We just kept on plummeting faster and faster, as I just dumped more of my being into this Viltrumites body, not letting a moment go to waste.
Once we hit the ground a large hole opened in the earth as the ground split all around us, and I was splattered like goo. My tentacles slipped out of him, rejoining my body as I reformed myself and stood over the heavily injured and panting mortal.
"As you can see your struggle was useless, while I am uninjured, unweakened, and still ready for a fight."
"You are panting, injured, and dealing with the effects of my essence flowing into your body and corrupting it."
"Soon enough you will be born anew, a new general, one stronger than the one I currently have under my rule."
"With you by my side, conquering this world and spreading my being, my disease across this universe will be easy."
"Well, easier."
He merely looked at me with rage in his eyes, but a calm exterior trying his best to remain level-headed.
"It doesn't matter, the Viltrumite Empire will send someone stronger to conquer this world, to destroy you."
"And I know that even if you somehow gave a boost to my physical strength I would be nowhere near the truly strong of my kind."
He then charged forward as I held out my right palm, in a blocking motion and well he probably expected me to merely block his strike. I smiled as dozens of small tentacles shot out of it and struck him in the front, mostly around his chest area and more of my black goo began to flow into his body, his bloodstream.
He screamed in pain as the underneath of his skin began to bulge and transform, his body trying its best to fight off my infection. He screamed in pain as he stopped mid-attack and began to grab himself, he even began to crush his own body as the pain became unbearable.
His skin slowly began turning black, but then it turned normal again, it kept going back and forth for a bit. Even then his legs began to change, becoming hind legs instead as his bones cracked and transformed, his body being reconstructed by me.
"The pain would be so much more bearable if only you accept my darkness, my evil, my very being."
"Become part of something much greater than before, for this universe shall have a new age of evil and calamity!"
Then all at once his skin turned pure black and his eyes became as red as blood, his fingers became extended and his nails much sharper, like a knife. Then the red from his eyes began to spread across his body, forming two gigantic circles on the front of his shoulders and then curled around conjoining on his back and forming one gigantic red circle.
He then bowed down on all fours, the transformation of both his mind and body completed, he would be far stronger than before, and well during the process I had an idea. I gave him a few abilities of his own, one was the weaker version of what I did to the scientist, he would be able to create sleepless beings if they continued to fail me.
With a wicked smile on my face, I looked into the forest, at this vast world now ready to explore it a little and spread my influence far wider than before.
