The Witch Hunter System

"Abaddon."

"That's Abaddon?!"

Vaan's casual answer quickly shocked Hecate, causing her to study the monstrous abomination again. It didn't have a single part that resembled Abaddon.

"How in the world did you reduce him to such a state?" Hecate uttered but quickly shook her head the next moment. "Never mind. You can explain it to me later. Let us deal with this thing first, Sir Vaan."

Although Hecate wasn't too sure what Vaan did to Abaddon, she figured it might have something to do with the big explosion she felt while she was on her way over.

Nevertheless, she couldn't imagine how Vaan could create such a powerful explosion of energy with his given cultivation.

As such, she also figured that if she learned the truth of the matter right away, she would not be able to focus on the battle due to her sheer shock and astonishment.

"Be careful, Lady Hecate. This space region is very fragile. You wouldn't want to fall into the dimensional cracks. It's fine if it leads to Chaos. But if it doesn't, there's no saving you."

Vaan gave Hecate a warning amid Blood Devil Abaddon's pursuit.

At the same time, Hecate quickly discovered that the present state of Abaddon posed no threat to Vaan despite his increased power.

Thus, she wasn't too concerned with his safety.

"I am aware of that, Sir Vaan. However, I appreciate the concern," Hecate replied.

Afterward, she quickly took a moment to study the fragile space region in greater detail. Vaan also didn't say much after this.

Given Hecate's age, power, and wealth of knowledge, it was natural for her to know more things than him. Perhaps she had also discovered some things about the space region that he had not.

Hecate noticed that Blood Devil Abaddon's body had merged with Asura Runes and was constantly emitting the power of the Asura Law.

As such, each of his movements also carried its power.

The fragile space region couldn't withstand the Origin Law's overbearing power, which led to its fragmentation.

However, she quickly realized it wasn't the power of the Asura Law alone, but any power above a certain threshold could cause the spatial fracture.

The space region was simply too unstable and fragile due to a past ancient war of great magnitude – This was also the conclusion Vaan arrived at but with greater detail due to his familiarity with the fourth dimension and his universe.

However, for Hecate to grasp this much instantly was still impressive.

Hecate quickly understood that she had to consider how much power she should use before using it, lest she fell into a dimensional crack of her own making.

After she finished grasping the situation, she was ready for battle.

"Sir Vaan, you did well surviving against Abaddon for so long. Now, leave the rest to me," Hecate stated.

Shortly after, Hecate concentrated a large amount of moon power on the tip of her finger before firing a powerful moon beam straight through one of Blood Devil Abaddon's ugly heads.

Vaan was a little speechless, thinking Hecate would rein in her power a little, given the delicate environment. However, 'holding back' didn't seem to exist in her dictionary—at least, not in that move.

Nevertheless, Hecate's moon power was strong but also gentle. As such, it didn't fracture the space.

Seeing the lack of effect moon power had on the space region, Hecate immediately followed up with several more shots, targeting every part of Blood Devil Abaddon's vitals.

The past Abaddon wouldn't have dared to face Hecate's power with his bare body, but the Blood Devil Abaddon did; it didn't bother putting up any defense with its power of law.

As such, its heart and all of its heads were pierced with moon beams, and even Abaddon's divine soul was shattered.

Hecate deemed dealing such blows was sufficiently fatal. However, she greatly underestimated Blood Devil Abaddon's present abominable form. His life force was far more tenacious than she could ever imagine.

In the blink of an eye, Blood Devil Abaddon fully recovered from all of his seemingly fatal wounds.

Even his shattered divine soul was reformed – That was the greatest shock of all.

"Hm?" Hecate immediately frowned.

Not only did she fail to kill Abaddon, but she also attracted his malice. However, that wasn't important. What was important was the recovery of his shattered divine soul.

That wasn't something a Rank 7 Divine Being was capable of, let alone a Peak Rank 6 Divine Being.

Transcendent Divine Power – White Nova!

Hecate suddenly obliterated Blood Devil Abaddon with one of her strongest moves at the expense of shattering the surrounding space.

Most of Blood Devil Abaddon's body and divine soul melted away instantly. However, he recovered everything moments later.

His godly regeneration reminded Vaan of the Earth Spirit Worm.

"Impossible…!"

Hecate was in complete disbelief after what she saw. She couldn't believe that Abaddon could still recover after getting 90% of his body and soul wiped out.

This kind of regenerative ability had transcended her understanding.

After all, not even Rank 10 Divine Beings would have such a heaven-defying ability. In fact, even the so-called gods couldn't have recovered soul destruction so casually.

This was something beyond that.

In Hecate's mind, Blood Devil Abaddon's current existence was similar to that of an Eternal Being.

"Abaddon has fused with Asura Runes and Fourth Dimensional Energy and assimilated parts of a quasi-fourth-dimensional being. He has evolved beyond a normal third-dimensional being. Normal attacks won't work on him," Vaan stated with a sharp look.

"Fourth Dimensional Energy…?" Hecate gasped in surprise.

Nevertheless, she understood what to do.

After luring Blood Devil Abaddon to a dimensional crack leading to the endless sea of nothingness, she immediately blew him through it with a powerful blast of moon power.

"Begone, Fiend!" Hecate hollered.

"Wait—!!" Vaan suddenly cried after sensing her intention, but it was too late.

After Blood Devil Abaddon was banished into the endless sea of nothingness, the absolute power of nihility eroded his undying body and soul.

"What's wrong, Sir Vaan?" Hecate asked with surprise.

Vaan sighed with regret.

Given Blood Devil Abaddon's state, he would have surely died if they worked together.

As such, there was no need to kill him so thoroughly, like banishing him into the sea of nothingness.

After all, his body was full of priceless treasures.
