Chaos Devourer System - Chapter 227

Chapter 227: Battle Between Pseudo-Cosmic Rank Experts
“I’m surprised you know all that and not quivering in shock yet…”

“Just as I said, you’ll last at most thirty minutes before turning frail and dying…”

“Tch, we’ll see if it takes all that time to slice your head off…” Arcule’s said while stepping forward.

“Stay back!” He said to Zeras before he suddenly faded away.

BOOOOOM

A kick materialized right in front of Shima’s eyes filled with unstoppable power before slamming on his face as he shut backward like a cannonball.

“Fast… It’s too fast.” Before Zeras could even blink, both figures already disappeared into the distance, every one of their strike causing so many devastating explosions, that his heart chilled within him.

“This is not the power of Meteor rank at all. It’s the power of Cosmic Rank!” He screamed out in shock and truly he was almost right.

Arcule was already at the Peak Meteor rank stage! Using his Limiter ability, he directly broke through the Meteor rank stage arriving at the Early Cosmic Rank due to his ability but in the end, it can only be the Pseudo Cosmic Rank stage due to it just being a temporary breakthrough.

For Zeras to be able to even go toe to toe with Shima who was slightly stronger than Arcules a Peak Meteor rank stage was already a miracle.

Yet, he was well aware he needed to get up. There was no sign of fear on Shima’s face on sighting Arcules using his limiters which meant it would be highly likely he had his way of defending himself and exhausting Arcules to death.

If the Number one genius of the Number one family on Earth died here, only the devil knows how much the Kratos family will rage…

BOOOOOM

The ground he was in caved in as he got on his feet before shooting off the ground and disappearing into the distance.

— — —

Before Shima could balance himself, two gigantic axe images appeared above him before slashing down with horrifying strength.

“Kratos Family Art: Third Form: War God Rage…”

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM

The air rippled and shook as Shima’s face changed, barely steadying himself and slashing outwards with his sword as fast as he could.

Slowly, the gigantic phantom of the axe was chipped away bit by bit but there were still remnants left that slammed on his right hand.

ARRRRGGH

Golden blood splashed out of his right arm like a tap as he hurriedly repeated but Arcules wasn’t willing to give him the chance.

Immediately appearing in front of him as if having teleported, his axe was once again cleaved outwards causing Shima to ignore his wounds quickly raising his hands to once again block.

ARRRRRRRGH

The groan escaped Shima’s lips as a vein popped on his forehead, his left arm barely hanging on his shoulder.

Not only was it incredibly painful getting slashed by the axe, but he also felt a sinister intent slamming onto his head, disorientating him.

A punch rippled forward towards his head, and he blocked it with his katana when suddenly Arcules used his left hand holding the axe and brought it down on Shima’s head.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP

Blood splashed out like a tap followed by an object dropping onto the ground. An object in the shape of a horn.

“Eh?”

KABOOOOM

A devastating shockwave rippled through the air as a kick slammed into Shima’s head digging him into the ground.

Arcules roughly landed on the ground as he looked at the slice of the horn before turning to look at the abyss.

At the edge, a hand grabbed hold slowly crawling out of it. A bloody figure whose entire face and robe was covered in blood.

Slowly rising from the ground, Shima looked at the horn which was right in front of Arcule’s feet his face changed so much that resembled that of a hideous monster, horrific veins bulging all over his face as his skin turned blood red.

“You…Do you have an idea what you had just done?” Shima asked his voice like a slowly emerging earthquake.

“I do. I just crippled you!” Arcules replied as his axe slipped from his hold.

He had realized something from watching the fight between Rima and Selena and also the fight between Shima and came to an important conjecture.

Their power was greatly connected to their horn. If they got slashed, their horn would radiate with light that would heal them. If they tried casting an art, their horn would shine brightly. Whenever they try a major move it is always their horn lighting up.

That was when the thought entered into his head,

What if he sliced off the horn? Then doesn’t that mean they would lose the source of their power?

And judging by Shima’s horrific expression, he could tell it was true.

Slowly, he dropped to his knees as the horrific veins on his body slowly disappeared and his axe dropped to the ground.

He had reached his limit!

What Shima said about the Limiter art-sucking life force was true and the Kratos family was also aware of that.

To stop their geniuses from suddenly dying due to overuse, a seal had been placed on them that would automatically cancel the technique once their life force reached a threatening level.

That was why Arcules wasn’t very bothered about his life force depleting and could fully concentrate on the battle.

But he had also reached his limit. The world was slowly turning darker and darker, as he fell onto the ground, the last thing he saw being that of the devilish-looking Shima walking towards him with an insane amount of killing intent.

“Such a satisfying battle, even if I die here, It would be a worthy death…” Arcules said, darkness setting in completely.

It was why they were known as the Kratos Family. The fight was one he never had since his birth. Even reaching up his absolute limit and though he felled, it filled him with great satisfaction.

And he knew very well, that if he survived this, then his growth in strength would be massive.
