I Can Make Everything Level UP

Uvish turned around because he knew that Billy would attack his back and send him downward again. He saw him there and used a powerful Palm Cannon that made the atmosphere of that world tremble… but that was just an afterimage. Uvish still got kicked on his back, and the impact sent him further away.

“You are going to kill him like this…” The spirit of order said while they watched Uvish leaving the planet due to the power of that attack.

“Have you forgotten the promise you made?” The spirit of chaos asked.

“Although you want to save him, you don’t even have much faith in him… unless I do this much, his spirit will never be broken, and I will never defeat him without killing him that way,” Billy replied. “You can’t underestimate the tenacity of someone who has been plotting things behind the scenes for over three thousand years.”

“I only can see an uncertain future, for now…” The time spirit said.

Billy decided to ignore their whining. While he was doing something necessary to achieve everyone’s goals, he was also relieving his stress. Uvish deserved that much after all the shit he had pulled. Regardless, Billy positioned his punch and himself well enough to send the enemy to the nearest planet, but before that could happen. Uvish opened a portal behind himself and then reappeared behind Billy.

In the next moment, while clenching his teeth, Uvish summoned a sword of light and swung down toward Billy. The attack actually hit him and pushed him downward. A massive fissure appeared on that continent while Billy was going deep into that world’s crust. When he finally stopped, a massive beam of light reached him.

After making his body become ethereal, Billy absorbed some of the mana from the attack. Still, he eventually got overpowered… the enemy decided to use mana, and he wasn’t trying to save much of it. Billy opened a portal to Uvish’s side to escape.

“I guess we can assume that I won the physical battle,” Billy said while his whole body was emitting steam.

Uvish clenched his teeth in annoyance even more. Still, he noticed that Billy’s body had several nasty burn marks… the attack worked. His magic resistance in that body wasn’t good enough. Still, he noticed that parts of his body still were fine, and now he could feel a lot of mana coming from it.

“Now, I will defeat you with magic,” Billy declared. “My own original magic.”

Although Uvish was angry, he was also pretty interested in that, so he waited for Billy to show him something good. Even if he came up with something novel, he couldn’t hope to create something that could defeat Uvish, who had the mana of an entire world at his disposal.

In any case, Billy circularly moved both of his arms after stretching them to the limits, and Uvish saw some shadows left behind by them. It looked like afterimages at first, but then he felt a lot of mana in those afterimages. Eventually, they became a lot clear to see. The arms looked purple like they had been created by chaos magic, and it was somewhat similar to the portals, but at the same time…

Uvish could feel the mana, but he couldn’t tell the nature of the attack. It wasn’t like anything he had seen yet… considering that Billy saw some of his memories and found traces of the battles in the past, he could tell what kind of powers Uvish had, and he worked to come up with something beyond that.

All of a sudden, one of the arms moved toward Uvish, but it was so slow that he just moved to the side. Still, the attack left a path on the space, and Uvish couldn’t see anything in there. Eventually, those disappeared, but they sure looked ominous. The second attack came from another arm, and it was just a bit faster.

Uvish kept dodging while he studied those, and then he realized that the attacks were becoming faster not because Billy wanted them to but because he needed to focus on controlling them properly. His eyes were closed, and it seemed like he was in a deep state of meditation.

Uvish decided to attack him and summoned several light swords before firing them at him. Still, the weird magic arms moved like Billy moved before and then stopped all of them. He had attacked asides even Billy’s blind spots, so he couldn’t imagine how he managed to block all of them… he realized how when he saw the path left by the arms… that completely nullified his mana.

“What is that thing…” Uvish thought.

“You seem exasperated…” Billy said. “Do you want to know how this works? If you ask nicely, perhaps I will answer.”

“Pathetic,” Uvish said and then smirked before using Mana/EXP conversion, Exp Master and Absolute Thiever to steal the mana from that weird thing.

Unfortunately, the space was returning to normal by itself. Still, Uvish’s skills had no effect on it… which left him speechless. He knew that the time spirit could control time and make some areas move one hundred times faster or slower, but he didn’t think that Billy would progress that much with his help…

“All right, this will do,” Billy said after he opened his eyes.

Billy charged toward the enemy, and his dark purple magic arms attacked Uvish’s fist. The enemy erected a magic barrier while he moved away, but that was shattered almost instantly by a single arm.

Uvish realized that the arms and the distortions they left behind for a while could negate the effects of magic. Even so, the spell must have some secret or weakness since Billy called it magic as well. Uvish has to learn what it was before he can be defeated with magic as well. At that point in time, he no longer believed that such a possibility was nonexistent. He was forced to in order to avoid further embarrassment…
