Flat-Brim Samurai Chapter 121 - A Fight Beyond Time
He heard a voice surround him ,"I know you're not done yet, once my purpose for you is done, you will perish just like you're Nexus." The dark energy, completely different from ki could be found everywhere entering his body, making him undergo changes, including those in his very mind itself. The barrier covering Theo dropped, the group looked at the stained body, it was pure black, no speck of light could even suggest a human being that was alive. The energy surrounding his body had no particular spiritual frequency, almost as if it denied existence.
Apollo was shocked, he couldn't sense the power of the energy but automatically knew that it was strong. Theo screamed ,"AAGGGHHHH," Distorted by the black energy it ate away at the surroundings, the universe looked like paint being leached from a canvas. Theo disappeared, CRACK Cias's ribs broke and his organs were severely damaged, if not for his sheer will and unification, he would've been dead. Apollo didn't sense that Theo moved at all, and yet Cias was wounded, his senses were stretched to their extreme yet he couldn't sense it. In a second his arm was cut off SLICE, he reattached his arm THUMP. Theo sliced the limbs and struck numerous times at the group BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM.
Apollo was shocked but his will pushed his power further into the realm of insanity. His emotions welled up inside of him, fear, anger, determination, these were the emotions he felt. His senses stretched even further beyond, beyond space and time, and then he found him. Apollo spoke ,"Is he… Ignoring reality???" This shocking revelation left him bewildered, he screamed out ,"HE'S ATTACKING US OUTSIDE OF TIME!!!" Cias, Devan and Kenji stared blankly at Apollo, Noah appeared excited. Apollo asked Cias ,"Do you think it's possible for us to do the same?" Cias began to ponder, drifting into space. Cias thought to himself (Ki can allow a user to shift reality by inputting intention the energy, so if I force myself to disconnect from space and time we should be able to fight him.) He looked around at spacetime, thankful for his revelation of seeing into the nexus, he silently thanked Onyx.
Time came to a stand still, or did it? Cias was confused as to what exactly he was seeing, it was the past, present and future of the 3rd dimension all blended into one singular image. He shivered, but regained his mind, and then he saw him, Theo, disconnected from time and space. Onyx activated, he thrusted his spear at Theo but the flames were eaten by the weird energy. He backed up and thought (I need to get them here). He moved his body through the construct of reality, up looked like down, down looked like up, he could even see the past and futures of every object. This vision finally focused on 3 other people who achieved unification, he couldn't bring kenji along with them because he hadn't achieved unification, which saddened him by not being allowed to bring his friend's father along.
Nonetheless he used Information Translation to send the information to Apollo, Devan and Noah. In an instant they used Art: Transcend to disconnect from reality, forming outside of space and time where Cias was. Noah smiled ,"I'm about ready to fight now," he smacked his hands together and dashed directly at Theo. Cias screamed ,"NOOO." BOOM Noah's energy started to dissipate and he dashed backwards. One of his hands was deconstructed. Although his soul started reconstructing the gauntlets, no matter how hard he tried, his hand wouldn't rematerialize, Noah screamed ,"Don't let me distract you, I'll find a way to kill him." Cias shouted back ,"Hold on motherfucker!". Apollo sighed and squinted his eyes ,"What's happened to him?" Cias replied ,"I don't know, but that energy of his is eating away at him. All we have to do is survive till the energy eats away his whole body. It seems to damage the spirit and the body, it's frightening." Theo's body was growing thinner and thinner and his mind became even more insane and clouded. He drew out his hand and let out a beam of the dark energy BWOOM. Apollo and Devan barely managed to dodge the attack. Apollo glared at the entity, trying his best to figure out any way he could possibly damage it ,"Shit."
