Max stood on his pillar with focused eyes. He had defeated Kaiden with the Void Genesis Art, but Damian was approaching the battle from a completely different direction. Max's advantage had been mastery and immunity. Damian had neither.
He was not immune to spatial attacks, and he did not understand the Void Genesis Art as Kaiden did. Yet his sword path was so pure and precise that it could cut through the meaningful line behind Kaiden's movements. That made him frightening in another way entirely.
On the stage, Kaiden's aura finally changed. Silver-gray light expanded behind him, and the entire battlefield began twisting into a vast spatial maze. Corridors rose from the ground, mirrors opened in the air, and walls of folded distance appeared and vanished. Exile points flickered at the edge of sight while hidden blades of space moved between planes.
"Pseudo Cosmic Path."
Kaiden's voice rang across the arena.
"Grand Void Labyrinth."
Boom!
