chapter-1875
'You dare try to dominate me? You will burn in my fury!' Wrath bellowed.
'Order cannot bind me! Yet, you think you can?' Chaos sneered mockingly.
'You will be consumed by your own hunger!' Gluttony craved coldly.
'Why bother? It's all pointless...' Sloth yawned.
Each persona fought tooth and nail to keep itself alive and relevant under the tyranny of Pride."You exist to serve my will, you must submit under my authority." Pride commanded coldly, his voice echoing within his mind.
With a forceful exertion of his indomitable will, Pride began to crush the rebellious energies. One by one, the embodiments' resistance faltered.
Wrath's fury dimmed, Chaos's freedom was shackled, Envy's desire was quelled, Greed's avarice was consumed, Gluttony's hunger was sated, Sloth's lethargy was overcome, Fire's flames were extinguished, and Light's brilliance was matched.
The rest of the personas had their wills crushed too, allowing Pride to gain control over their laws completely!
Felix suddenly felt an overwhelming surge of power as he became one with all of his laws' embodiments.
His aura blazed brighter than ever before while his golden appearence emitted an aura of an emperor, of a god, of an Overlord!
As the barrier dissipated, Felix emerged, his pools of liquid gold reflecting not a hint of fear or concern as he faced the sixteen clones of Ares."This ends now, Ares. I will be the finality to your infinity." Felix declared, his majestic voice resonating with the combined force of all his laws.
He extended his arm to the side and a maelstrom of energy formed above his palm, a chaotic blend of darkness, fire, lightning, radiation, anti-matter, and the raw force of each embodiment.
As the energies merged, they began to take the shape of a massive dark red blade. It seemed like it was there, but at the same time, it was not.
Its very existence signaled an abnormality in the universe, as by simply existing, it continued to tear through the fabric of reality itself!
This wasn't all, spatial rifts formed and closed in its wake, spacetime disturbances rippled outward, and trails of erasure marked its passage, eradicating anything it touched from existence.
It was a sword of pure destruction...
Felix grasped the hilt of the blade and pointed this masterpiece of annihilation at Ares, making him for the first time in his life, feel his heart skip a beat in dread.
Before he could react, nay, before anyone could react, Felix turned into a shadowy blur and when he reappeared, he was standing behind a cloud of dark red mist...
Yet, no one's eyes were on him as their thinned pupils were affixed to the cloud of dark mist, not being able to remove them from it.
Their reaction was understandable as this cloud of rid mist used to be one of Ares' clones. Yet, it got annihilated instantly even under the protection of an infinity barrier...
"What the..."
Albeit delayed in their reaction, the tenants were left utterly stunned and bewildered at the current development, having no clue how to react.
Under everyone's shocked eyes, Felix uttered indifferently, "One down, fifteen to go."
Unlike Ares, Felix didn't give him a single chance to recover from the shock. He swung his blade at the closest clone, reducing it to a flicker of light before it vanished!
'Take cover!' Only then did Ares and his clones wake up from their daze and try their best to protect themselves from the whirlwind of annihilation!
Alas, Felix was just too much as he was now capable of harnessing all the embodiments under one banner!
In other words, he could increase his strength, speed, and other physical aspects to match Ares in a single body!
With a sword capable of erasing anything it touched purely through destruction, Ares found himself incapable of doing anything!
'Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!' Ares cursed as he watched his clones dropping by akin to flies, 'How can this be? How can he create a sword of destruction laws? Did he merge all of his destructive energies?'
Ares wasn't too certain about his assumption as he knew that merging laws would create another law, but it shouldn't have its own authority. This applied to lower laws, don't even mention a law that didn't even have its unigin.
If it wasn't impossible for elements to have similar authority to laws, he would have assumed that Felix was using a destruction element.
In other words, even if Felix was using a similar sword but created out of elemental energy, Ares would easily erase it with a wave of a hand.
Alas, Ares wasn't given much time to keep thinking about this. It took Felix mere seconds to eliminate all clones of Ares, leaving him on his own.
Felix appeared in front of him, leaving behind him a trail of pure destruction. He extended his sword in front and uttered calmly, "I don't want to slice apart your core. Admit defeat and hand it over."
Ares went silent, gazing at the tip of the sword and feeling deep down within, that his saga would be concluded the moment he got touched by it.
He realized the inevitability of his end, understanding that the only way to survive was to run away...But, he had signed a contract that forbade it.
In the end, he let out a long exhale and lowered his hands in resignation.
Then, he gave Felix a respectful and appreciative look, "I admit your power is absolute, Paragon. But, before I concede defeat, may I know how..."
'I merged all embodiments under one persona.' Felix replied indifferently, 'Since I own most of the laws with destructive capabilities, it's more than possible to create destruction law with its authority.'
'Ahhh, I see, merging embodiments with their authorities can only result in the birth of a law with its authority too.' Ares raised an eyebrow in astonishment, 'It's like you are using destruction embodiment without being its unigin.'
'More or less.' Felix nodded.
His explanation was heard by the tenants as well, making them understand that only Felix could pull this off in the entire universe!
He possessed tens of laws and was very close to collecting all of them...He managed to enter all of their embodiments and unite them under one persona.
Since creation and destruction were the ultimate rules in the universe and could be considered the origins of laws, any combination of a high quantity of laws would result in tapping into them.
But to do it while having those laws at their peak potential? The result was clear.
"I guess I can't have it any better." Ares laughed, "This is truly the best imaginable ending."
Reaching into his chest, Ares pulled out his core. He held it out to Felix, the symbol of his power and existence.
"My saga has concluded...Take my core and continue on your path, I am starting to believe that you might have what it takes to bring the three rulers down." Ares said with a satisfied smile.
"Believe? You shouldn't believe in certainties." Felix reached out with his hand to catch the floating centre and said with a cold tone, "The three rulers' rule is near its end. There is only one ruler in this universe and that's me."
"Hahaha, I kinda wish to see...Huh?"
Ares suddenly halted mid-laughter after noticing his centre and soul turning vibrant golden against his will. When Felix observed this, his expression turned for the worse.
"You!"
