Far beyond the known realities, a massive figure sat upon a throne outside the verse. His gaze swept across existence, sensing that something had shifted… though not enough to warrant concern. at least, not yet.
Back in the original world, deep in the expanse of space, Kyle in his hybrid form advanced toward the mysterious figure. He reached out to grab him, but the man slipped away, retreating to a safe distance.
Kyle's eyes narrowed, following his movements.
"You dodge pretty fast," he said, his voice carrying a deep, draconic resonance.
With a sudden flare, Kyle unleashed his dragonic aura. The mana within the void surged toward him, warping space itself. The pull was irresistible, dragging the mysterious figure toward Kyle against his will.
In a single motion, Kyle's massive jaws opened wide, and he swallowed the mysterious figure whole.
A deep burp escaped his throat as he patted his now-swollen belly. Moments later, the bulge began to shrink, his form returning to its original state.
From the corner, Ero stared in disbelief. In her mind, one horrified thought surfaced:
Did he just… get pregnant from that guy?
She shook her head. Disgusting.
Kyle let out a deep, mocking laugh over the remains of his opponent.
"You should feel honored," he said with a toothy grin. "You had enough power to become my dinner. Bahaha! The skill I used was Complete Gluttony. Only the strongest primordials have ever been swallowed by me."
Memories flashed through his mind countless battles, each more brutal than the last. He had witnessed the annihilation of entire primordial races, hunted their champions across realms, and consumed them one by one.
For Kyle, this was not just a victory, it was another trophy in a long, merciless hunt.
A slow, deliberate clapping echoed across the void.
"Your power," a familiar voice called out, "is as strange as ever. You can sever an entity's connection to the real world entirely, making them unreachable across all realms. In that place, no concept exists. only your pure destruction remains."
Kyle's head snapped toward the sound, and his eyes widened in shock.
"How…? How did you survive? What kind of trick did you use? Is this a clone?"
Stepping into view, it was none other than the mysterious figure clapping with quiet pride.
"No, I didn't escape in secret. I truly died there. Even with my ability to erase all concepts, your power didn't just erase jt but it destroyed the meaning of concepts themselves. Anyone swallowed by you… is erased beyond recovery. I'd wager even the strongest primordial in history has met that fate."
Kyle's voice rose in disbelief.
"If my ability is that absolute, and you did die… then why are you standing here now? How are you alive? How did you escape in the first place?"
His expression didn't waver.
"That… was only my weakest avatar. It could only replicate a small portion of my true power. It wasn't a real threat but it was still difficult to destroy. And you managed it."
Kyle studied him closely, noticing for the first time that MF (mysterious figure) face was now clearer, more defined… as if he had stepped closer to revealing his true self.
Black flames erupted from Kyle's hand, their heat distorting the space around him. His eyes burned with lethal intent.
"I don't care if you're an avatar or a clone," he growled, "but one thing's for sure. you can die by my hands."
He launched forward, his fist cutting through the void toward the mysterious figure.
At first, the man slipped past each strike with practiced ease, his movements flowing like water. But Kyle's speed only grew, closing the gap with every motion until the figure was forced to counter.
A flicker of unease crossed the mysterious figure's face.
"Isn't that flame… your essence power? It's even stronger than your Gluttony. Have you lost your mind? Do you want to destroy me or destroy the entire world?"
Kyle didn't answer. His fist, wreathed in roaring black fire, connected squarely with the man's face.
A sudden, bone-shattering force exploded from the impact, twisting the very fabric of the void. The mysterious figure's body crumpled under the strike, life extinguished in an instant.
From somewhere deep in the void, a voice echoed.
"It seems my avatars can't match your power… then I suppose I'll join in personally."
A massive hand tore through the fabric of space, ripping it apart like fragile cloth. From the wound in reality stepped a man, his looks was out of world, with black hair and deep black eyes. Nothing about him appeared supernatural, yet his presence was overwhelming. He looked like an ordinary human… and yet, he was anything but.
The true mysterious figure smiled warmly, almost too warmly, as he walked toward Kyle.
Without a word, Kyle exploded into motion. His fists struck with impossible speed, an infinite barrage unleashed in zero seconds. No magic, no abilities with only raw, unrestrained physical power.
In that moment, he bypassed the very limits of time itself.
This time, the mysterious figure didn't simply dodge, he met Kyle head-on, countering every strike with his own devastating punches.
Each clash sent shockwaves ripping through the void. The fabric of space fractured like glass, shards of reality scattering into the abyss.
The longer they fought, the worse it became. Cracks spread in every direction, and the endless black around them began to crumble into dust, as if the very foundation of existence could no longer endure their power.
With each clash, their battle grew more intense. every blow shaking what remained of the collapsing void. The balance of the world faltered, and the ground beneath their feet began to disintegrate.
Then, a single sound cut through the chaos.
Rrrip.
It was the sound of a single sheet of paper being torn.
In that instant, the original world was gone and completely erased. Its remnants, like the torn paper, began to fade into nothingness, each fragment dissolving until not even a trace remained.
