Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Leon lost the count of how many stars and planets that monster had destroyed. However, it doesn't matter. His attack was already ready, and so was Leon.

"Ilyana, watch my back," Leon said. "Whatever happens, we have to make that this attack will hit."

"Got it." Ilyana nodded.

If that doesn't work, Leon would be forced to summon everyone to that place. It would be insanely hard for his allies to fight in outer space, and many of them would be their advantage, but he wouldn't have any other choice. Leon couldn't summon them before using Big Bang at least once, after all.

Leon charged at his top speed. He had to end things right now before the battle can escalate, and their disadvantage can become even more apparent. Leon charged without hesitation… yet, in the deepest part of his mind, something began to worry him. The monster said that he would teleport his allies, but it didn't so until now. Why? That question was tormenting him because Leon had an accurate answer. The monster wanted to summon them to kill all of his allies in front of Leon after trying everything he can and fails. That kind of thought made Leon sweat cold, but it wasn't enough to make him give up.

"I will definitely kill him," Leon muttered. "No matter what…"

This was the golden chance Leon needed. The final enemy was right in front of him. If he could defeat it, he and everyone else would probably receive all the mana they needed to fix things up. This was definitely the last battle; Leon would bet everything on that last attack. Yet… he couldn't feel anything coming from those innumerous eyes across that monster's body—no fear, no anxiety… absolutely nothing.

"Tsk." Leon clicked his tongue in annoyance. "Don't underestimate us."

Although he couldn't see a single sign of sentiment in all those eyes, they still shot massive and concentrated Mana Beams toward Leon. Yet, he didn't dodge them. Leon couldn't lose the momentum of a direct charge, he trusted Ilyana, and she answered his trust by making those Mana Beams return to its eyes. She had reversed the time of all those attacks. Leon smirked… yet… the monster only shrugged.

Leon ignored that because his attack was about to land. To make sure he would damage all the nervous system was freak was so proud of, Leon aimed at one of the eyes in the center of the body. The attack hit the monster's body, and immediately, all the concentrated mana exploded.

Engulfed by light, Leon was sent flying backward while he was feeling the mana destroying his body at a fearsome rate. It was only natural that one attack like that would also damage him. Still, the pain wasn't nearly as intense as Leon thought it would be. As if that wasn't weird enough, he stopped flying after just a couple of seconds. When Leon stopped, he noticed that he was still quite ahead of Ilyana and Tyrselle. Their mouths were hanging open while looking at where the monster was supposed to be. Leon turned to face the monster, only to see the mana that was supposed to cause a big bang had stopped expanding. The monster's body was covered in light, but it wasn't because the attack was damaging it. It was because its eyes were absorbing the mana.

"What the…" Leon said and then felt a terrible shrive.

That attack even made Leon lose all his limbs, yet, he couldn't sense the body of the monster suffering any damage. The presence of the creature hadn't changed as well. No… it changed… it had become larger and more fearsome.

"Now that all of you used your best attacks, it is time to teleport everyone here."

For a second, Leon thought that was just a figure of speech, but then suddenly, all that empty space got crowded with many different life forms. Monster of all kinds and apparently near infinite. Leon also saw the sapient species of worlds in the lower stages of assimilation there. Unfortunately, those quickly began to die thanks to the cold of outer space since they didn't have Ice Resistance at a sufficient level or any other skill that could prevent them from suffocating.

Leon saw his allies, who still decided to fight despite the monster's fearsome presence, but they weren't the only ones who came. All the one hundred million warriors he managed to reunite were forcefully teleported as well. By the look of things, that monster had truly summoned all the life forms of the universe.

Panic quickly spread among all of Leon's allies. It was only natural after seeing such a grotesque and massive monster like no other. Some tried to run, and those who turn their backs the creature exploded.

"Please, don't show your backs to me. As far as I know, you humans have the habit of respecting your elders, so I ask for the same treatment."

As usual, there was no animosity in the monster's voice, but that didn't help Leon's allies from panicking. Those who had decided to fight quickly begun to shot magic projectiles toward the monster, those who couldn't do that flew to attack the creature with their weapons and fists. Hector, Amanda, Maya, Sasha, Betty, Tom, Lennar, Gisela, Ren, and Yuki were among them.

"It is all or nothing, Leon," Ilyana said. "Let's fight up close and use our mana just to prevent casualties!"

Leon nodded at Ilyana's words. However, before his body could obey his mind, suddenly, all the humans exploded, with no exception. In the blink of an eye, Leon, Tyrselle, and Ilyana were the only ones left alive to fight the beast.

"No…" Leon muttered in shock.
